I have been to Von Kekel off and on for some years now. I don't go for long. I don't think I have stayed a complete 6 months ever. I go back thinking maybe they have a better attitude and stylist. I like AVEDA products but do not like them. The women just seem very bitchy and unhappy. I got Kerri in Cary today for flat iron, deep conditioning and trim. The trim was ok. She did not straighten my hair at the root which is a wavy texture and it was poofy when I got home. She also had a snarky attitude which what I've seen over ... read more

I just recently relocated to Cary, NC and decided to give Von Kekel a try. After seeing the same stylist for years, I was very hesitant. I had Chelsea Smith, a new stylist at Von Kekel from Greensboro, do my highlights. I highly recommend her to anyone searching for a new do! She was very professional, gave me exactly what I wanted, and carried on a great conversation. I cannot wait to go back for my retouch!

Will bump you off schedule for a higher paying customer. I had an appointment that was made 2 weeks ago. It was a model appointment meaning you pay a fraction of the cost because you let some one in training do your hair. I got a phone call yesterday to re-confirm my appointment. I just got a phone call at 2:30 the day before my appointment from the manager saying that the person who booked me was confused because they don't do models on Saturday, they don't have enough chairs. Then she proceeded to tell me that If I wanted ... read more

I was 5 minutes late for an appointment with Crystal, after driving 25 Miles I was asked to reschedule Although the hairdresser was in the salon and apparently had no other customers or appointment urgently waiting, the salon was empty for customers The level of arrogance and complacency driving my complain session with the service desk attendee is unacceptable in any business If you have a long drive, to get to Van Kekel with risk of traffic etc. Be ready to be rescheduled This little incident cost me 50 Miles of driving an... read more

NEVER again! – I originally started going to Von Kekel in Cary several years ago. I have very sensitive skin and need to go to a salon with knowledgeable staff and good products for waxing. Otherwise, bad things happen. When I first started going to Von Kekel, I would go for both a cut and wax. There was a stylist there by the name of Don, who I kept returning to the salon to visit because he was so good. Even when Don left, I continued going for my brows due to my sensitive skin. I honestly had no desire to continue going t... read more

Relaxing Spa and Salon – I have been using Von Kekel for a few years now. I have found the staff to be friendly and Krystal always cuts my long layered hair just right. I also get my brows waxed here and am always happy with the results. It's a calm and quiet atmosphere usually, though I think they have a TV if I recall correctly- which I could do without. I feel like if a customer were not satisfied- they would make it right. I think communicating about a hairstyle is tough- best to be descriptive and ask for feedback if yo... read more

Excellent Salon – I have been going to the Von Kekel Aveda Salon at the Cary location for over 3 years. I have been very pleased with my stylist Leah, the friendly reception, timely services, and beautiful environment. Not all stylists are as skilled at this salon though. When I could not schedule with Leah to cut my hair since she was on maternity leave for a while, I was told that a couple other stylists could do my hair. This was not the case. Long story-short, I am now growing out my layers due to both substitute stylist... read more

Worst Haircut I Have Ever Had – Worst haircut I have ever had..when I checked out, the girt at the front desk said, "That will be $55.00". I was shocked. I thought I would pay about $45.00. That's highway robbery! I took a picture of a simple short cut...I already have short hair, with great texture, so I surely thought the stylist could duplicate the cut...was I wrong! She chopped one side so short that it stuck straight out! I have a regular stylist, with over 20 years experience, who was unavailable and out of town...all ... read more

Above and Beyond – I have recently moved to the area and have visited other reputable salons in the Cary- Apex area and have had below average service done. I have very hard hair and needed some one to just take a little extra time, no one in the area had done that until I went to Von Kekel and was placed with Monica, a senior stylist. She listened to my griping and understood my situation. I did not want stripey hair that I was getting else where, she gave me the BEST color I have ever had!!! Not only am I picky, but she ha... read more
