I am so glad to have found this salon. I used to go to a different salon not far but they closed. I saw a posting from one of the stylist's from the other salon who's working at Samuel-Cole now and I'm so glad I followed her here. I have a reason to visit Raleigh more often now, it's definitely worth the drive. MJ's an expert at threading and my eyebrows have never looked so good! I love everything about my hair and I've already sent people your way. Thanks for a great experience! Pros: Atmosphere, stylist, reception, products, services, attitude Cons: I live too far

I was really excited about trying the Samuel Cole Salon--especially because I found someone who specializes in curly hair. I have to say, the setting is nice and everyone was very friendly. And thats about it. I made an appointment for a cut and full foil highlights. The stylist did spend time discussing my options with me and answered all of my questions. I told her that in the past when I've had color on my hair it turns brassy and that she would need to use bleach. She assured me that what she was using is like bleach and would NOT become brassy. When I left the salon my hair was still somewhat wet so I did not see the outcome of the color until I got home. I loved the cut but was very upset when I saw that the color was completely uneven, blotchy in spots and no where near my scalp! The front was so bad that wearing my hair pulled back was not an option because there was one big blond streak in the middle of my head! I went by and actually spoke with the person who assisted. She was very defensive and said that the only reason the 1 inch gap between my scalp and where the color started was a problem was because of the way I wear my hair! Which is ridiculous because if the stylist did a decent job I'd be able to wear my hair any way I wanted. I scheduled a redo (which is a great policy) and the stylist was very nice and agreed that the color was not even. She added several more foils. However, once again I left with wet hair and when it dried I realized that she never even touched up the roots---at my part or the front! She totally missed the point. So now, a month after spending $200, several hours at this salon, and tipping the stylist and her assistant twice I am having to search for another salon to fix this brassy mess and touch up my dark "roots"! I would not recommend this salon.

I have been a long time client of Nichole's and I wanted to take a moment to say what an amazing job she does on my hair. I am constantly changing what I want with my haircut and hair color and every single time I leave with beautiful hair. Most recently she has altered my color so I am ready for fall.... I feel like I should be in a magazine. I have really fine hair and she has shown me how to style it to make it look fuller. I have never had so many compliments on my hair. Love the salon and love Nichole. Pros: beautiful hair and good conversation Cons: not one

Carolyn is a rock star, by far and exceptional stylist who I would follow to the ends of the Earth. I have been in the area close to five years and until I met Carolyn I was totally unsatisfied.

I just had my third visit with Nichole and each time my hair becomes prettier. Never in my life have I had such a great experience at a salon or loved my hair this much. Nichole takes the time to discuss with me what we should do with my hair and always has great ideas on how to make it even better. She is up on all the latest trends and I feel like my hair is right out of Vogue Magazine. Not only does my hair look amazing I have such a great time when I see her. Make sure you schedule an appointment when you have plans that night because she styles it so beautifully. Thanks Girl. Pros: Awesome stylist and great service

I'm very picky with my hair. I moved from NJ/NY about 5 years ago and would still wait til I went back to visit to get my hair done. Going to this salon was the best decision! My friend recommended me to Jen Shayya, she was excellent. They welcome you when you come in, give you a chance to sit down and tell them exactly what you're looking for, she explains what she'll do, then she shampoos with a little scalp massage, then a hot wax treatment for your hands that just keeps them soft, then finally the haircut. They only use a top-of-the-line product, bumble and bumble. There aren't many salons that are exclusive bumble and bumble users..they were sought out by BandB to use their product! Finally there's also a great welcome package including discounts and free types of treatments. One of the treatments had a value of $65! There's great incentive to go back and great incentive to tell are your friends! Pros: Beautiful atmosphere, great treatment, and great haircut! Cons: none

I have been going to Sara Beard for years and have always been VERY, VERY happy with her. Sara takes the time to talk to me about what I want my hair to look like, the time I'm willing to spend styling it and what will and won't work. She shows me how to achieve the look at home and her suggestions about cut and color are amazing. The salon has a great atmosphere and everyone goes out of their way to make your experience relaxing and fun. The courtesy paraffin hand treatment and a glass of wine make you feel that you're their best customer every time you go in. I always look forward to going to the Samuel Cole Salon. Pros: Everyone goes the extra mile
