Hair Design & Color Studio

This is a long overdue review! Melissa is an artist and has helped me create a whole new style for myself. She takes her time and is very detail oriented. I get my hair cut about every 7 or 8 weeks, but even as the cut ages, it still looks good because of how precise she is. And she doesn’t just cut and send me home. She makes sure that I know the best techniques for drying and straightening my hair so that I can recreate the style at home on my own. (Before I met Melissa, I’d never been able to get my hair looking the same as it did at whatever salon I came from.) I get compliments on my hair all the time now. People can’t get over my transformation, and neither can I! I highly recommend Melissa’s «Hair Design & Color Studio.»

Wonderful experience! It has a very personal atmosphere since she only takes one client at a time. Loved not hearing a dozen hair dryers going at once. Definitely coming back for my next cut!

I was very lucky to find Melissa via a referral from a co-​worker. Word of mouth is fantastic like that.
Me (see my co-​worker looking FABU-​lous): Who. Cuts. Your. Hair?!
My coworker: I went to Melissa in Manchester…
Me: That’s in my neck of the woods. Give me her contact info. Like… NOW.
Well, it went down something like that. I’m trying to catch the enthusiasm and absolutely heart stopping need to get my hair done by whoever crafted what was on my co-worker’s head.
A phone call or two later, I had an appointment with Melissa. She’s very accommodating and knows her stuff.
Within a week, I was sitting in her chair and she was doing my hair cut using a technique I’ve never seen. She seems so casual, chats you up, and all the while she’s eyeballing your head and hair 360 degrees.
She cuts the hair wet. Then dries it and recuts its. Then she walks around your chair, checking out your hair and will go back in many times to do little tweaks and touch ups. Talk about good with details!
You can tell she’s been doing this for a long time because if your stylist has such a laid-​back attitude while you’re in the chair, you’re either with an idiot or you’re with someone who REALLY KNOWS what they’re doing. Melissa definitely hit this cut out of the park.
She was able to give me a really nice cut, she took a lot of hair out, gave it a shape, and it still has some length. I really like it. I felt before my hair was blah, which she pointed out what was going wrong with it, and how she would rectify it. And she went above rectifying… she gave me… Beautiful Hair.
She is also very much into education. She will give you a ton of styling tips while you sit in the chair and after. She is adamant that if you have any questions, she’s just a phone call away.
So, to wrap this up, great little studio space, awesome stylist, and great hairstyle.
Done. Done. Done.
Get your butt over there. You won’t regret it even if you have to drive a bit. She’s that good.

Melissa was fantastic! Couldn’t have been happier with the results! She made me feel very comfortable with the drastic change I was making, made the whole process a lot easier. My friends & family couldn’t compliment my new hairstyle enough. I will definitely be going back!

She’s an artist. Very attentive .and she really cares what the client would like Need I say more?

My wife and I came here a few weeks ago. We love the layout of the studio, it is so cozy and welcoming! Melissa did a great job, and is fantastic at what she does. Would recommend for anyone! Definitely returning for future hair cuts/​stylings/​colorings!
