Shannon Barnhardt

"This was my first time at The Hair Department southwest for a long overdue haircut. I highly recommend this salon, prices are not too bad and I like the products they use.

Skylar was my stylist and she did an amazing job!



I got quite a few inches cut off and now I love my new look! She was also very helpful with questions I had about products. I will definitely be back!"

Vernon Callantine

"First time taking my daughter to this salon/spa and it was a good experience. Christian did a fantastic job of sculpting my daughter's hair and explaining how to maintain the look as well as what she was doing to achieve the style. Besides the exceptional cut, the service was friendly and helpful.


This salon is well worth the price because everything is beyond value! It felt good to walk out feeling like we were not just serviced, but like we matter."

Brittney Call

"I had a great first appointment, everyone was so nice, they use great products, the salon was clean and they gave a price estimate during the consultation. After sleeping with my new cut and highlight I wanted a few things tweaked and they really went above and beyond to make sure I loved it. Abby and Brett were fantastic!"

Faith Lord

"It's been over 2 years since I've had a good haircut. I was scheduled with Breanna... she was amazing! She was very detailed in my hair cut and knew what she was doing! I highly recommend the salon - it's clean, everyone I came into contact was nice, and priced well!"

Jacqueline Boone

"I had my first appointment yesterday with Abby B. I have to go on the record as saying that I am extremely picky with my white haired pixie cut. Abby, however, took the time to completely understand my needs and she delivered spot on!



In addition the staff was very friendly and inviting and the Salon was aesthetically pleasing. Bright, white and clean. I will be back "

Liza Barrett

"I love The Hair Dept.  I've been seeing Michelle for several years now and can't imagine anyone else doing my hair.  The entire staff is so friendly and the services they offer are amazing!  I've started using their makeup line and am very pleased with it, also.  You just can't go wrong with this place."

Madison Lecroy

"Definitely will be back! New customer and Lindsey was AMAZING! She made me feel very comfortable and welcome. She put rose gold in my hair and I loved that she asked for help because she doesn't do that color often."
