I’m new in town and was looking for a good salon, so I visited The Hilt for the first time for a consultation. Everyone was so friendly, and the salon is nice, clean, and comfortable. I booked my appointment with Drew, and I want to specially recognize her—she is so gentle and did an amazing job on my hair. I felt comfortable the entire time and absolutely loved the results. Highly recommend!
Great atmosphere that made me feel welcome and relaxed right away. The staff was very helpful and the studio was clean and decorated in an adorable eclectic style. The service was excellent and my stylist was so helpful on how I can style my hair at home, showing me tips and tricks. Overall the whole experience was enjoyable and I love my new haircut.
Autumn did an amazing job and made the whole experience very welcoming and fun.
Great service and loved how patient Hannah was with my daughter, explaining all the steps she would take to achieve the color my daughter was looking for. My daughter absolutely LOVES her edgy color blocked hairstyle.
Taylor listened to what I wanted and absolutely nailed it. She took the time to listen to my issues, explain what she was doing and was overall fantastic. Will definitely be rebooking. There was an problem with overpayment but it was sorted out without me even realising there was an issue!
Great experience. I felt comfortable, and Bre was very knowledgeable. I love my haircut and it is hard for people to cut my hair since it is thick and has a wavy/curly pattern.
Am so impressed with my stylist, Kaylee. She did an awesome job on the subtle highlights I requested while perfecting matching my main color when she touched up the roots. She’s a certified Redken Colorist and it shows!
Love Hilt Salon. Have known Shawna for a salon a long time. She is excellent and talented. Customer-focused and fun to be around. She listens and gives you the look you want. I cut my hair from her latest suggestion for a different style. I love it and is perfect for me and my lifestyle. Go and try it! The new upgrades are beautiful.
