Wow - this is really something I can adress. I searched for the right hair stylist in this area for 4 and 1/2 years. Over the years, I've posted about the salon I was going to at the time and seemed pretty satisfied. My happiness was short lived with each place. I was convinced I was going to have to fly up north every 6 weeks to get my color and cut right (I jest as I really cannot afford to do that).
I've been to several of the top salons in Cary, Raleigh and Durham. After meeting someone with AWESOME hair, I returned to a salon I had gone to previously but to a different stylist. His name is Rob and he is at J&F Gemelli in Stone Creek. He is young (mid 30's), hip with about 12 years of experience, and does a great job. I'm in my 50's and do not want my mother's hair! Rob is the only one in the triangle who got my color right and helped me grow my hair out...almost shoulder length now! I get compliments on my hair all the time. I've sent 2 friends to Rob and they love him too!!
I know Claire Smith at Hair Waves in Cary is an actual color trainer for Redkin. She's a hoot to hang out with and always trendy...and I know she's also in her 40s and definitely doesn't have "Mom hair" ;-) She won a Best of the Triangle award a few years back and has some pics in the salon of some of the stars she's done when she works some of the shows that come to Raleigh. Thought that was pretty cool.
Downtown Wake Forest has a fantastic stylist - Lori Hundley at Salon 21. I had always hated my hair until I met her. Now I have a great bob with gorgeous highlights. I get comments from strangers complimenting my haircut and color at least 3 times a week. I have lived in several places around the triangle. I even drove from Morrisville to downtown Wake Forest because she is such a great stylist! I am moving to Western NC for a new job and am dreading finding a new stylist. PM me for her phone number.
I finally got a haircut that I really like. It took years but I think I finally found the stylist. She spent time with me and I showed her what I was going for with a picture. She really knocked it out of the park! She's from NYC. She's in Cary/Morrisville. Her name is Michelle. Her website is nijonalsalon.com

Thanks! I've gotten another recommendation for there. I'll DM you. I'm curious to know who you quit seeing there.

She may also be on my list. I'll have to doublecheck. She sounds familiar.
Thanks!

Awww. It is hard to lose a good stylist. I hope you find a new one you love.
Good luck with your move!

Christie at Hair Waves is good too. She just started this month (moved from another salon) and is my neighbor. She is fun and funny and does a great job!
She moved from a salon in North Raleigh (been there 10 years) and is trying very hard to build a new client base in Cary!
