Hair And Now

I am a long-​time customer of Hair and Now and I always see Megan. She is always the person who cuts my hair (unless I am out of state). She does a great job and spends time to make sure everything is done right. The facility is clean and nicely decorated. The location is convenient and there is plenty of parking. I cannot vouch for any of the other stylists. Megan gave my hair a wash, haircut and style with an eyebrow wax additionally last week and I was completely satisfied with everything. I paid $ 52 and then also included a tip.

I am new to Lexington and chose Hair and Now because I enjoy puns and wordplay. I am very pleased with my decision.
Massage chair at the shampoo bowl? Amazing.
My stylist was adorable and did exactly what I asked.
Everyone I talked to was very nice. I plan on making this my regular salon and would recommend it to anyone.

I was in Lexington for a wedding and two friends and I were looking for a place that had availability for a blow out. On the recommendation of a waitress at brunch we called Hair & Now and surprisingly they had openings for 3 girls on a Saturday with zero notice. And we were blown away! The women we each had did a wonderful job and the price was amazing. I have extremely curly hair and it takes a lot of time/​effort to blow dry and they did a wonderful job And it only cost $ 25.
The salon was very clean, the staff were friendly, and the atmosphere was laid back. She didn’t rush through the job and I was very happy with the results!

SEXIST SEXIST SEXIST!
I am a female and today I visited Hair and Now with my male friend. He received a full haircut that took around 30 minutes and I asked for a touch up buzz for the side of my head that my regular hair stylist at another salon had shaved last week. My touch up took 5 minutes and my stylist let the man at the register know that all he did was a small touch up. Then the man told me I owed him $ 30 (not including tip) because I am a girl and «all haircuts for girls start at $ 30» even though I didn’t even get a «traditional female haircut» or a haircut at all for that matter. My male friend joined me 20 minutes later having a full hair cut, wash, and eyebrow wax and the male attendant said his haircut was only $ 23 (not including tip) because he is a male and «all male haircuts start at $ 23.» As a feminist I was infuriated and I asked for the manager who rudely gave me back a mere $ 10 to push me out of the salon. I would absolutely NOT recommend this hair salon if you are a woman, if you care about equality, or being completely ripped off because of the sex organs you were born with. I will never return to hair and now solely base on principle.

I mostly stumbled across Hair and Now because when I moved to Lexington, it was the salon that my roommate used, and he got me a last-​minute appointment at the same time as his my first week there. Since then, I’ve been in a few times, and always been really happy with the experience.
They do take walk-​ins and sometimes they’ve told me that it’s not necessary to make an appointment if it’s not too busy, which is nice because I don’t have to worry so much about timing. I’ve never had to wait too long, and the interior is very nice, with a comfortable waiting section.
I’ve had a different stylist each time, and though I like them all, Brittany (I believe that was the name) was the best — she was extremely friendly and fun to talk to. But all of the stylists were knowledgeable and ready to answer questions.
I have long blonde hair that I keep dyed red, so I was used to the frequent colourings making things a bit more difficult. I usually leave it up to the stylist to determine how much should come off at a time, and they’ve been wonderful about getting rid of any damage while maintaining my length.
The last time I told the stylist I was curious about the Moroccan Oil products, as I’d heard from a friend that they work really well on her hair. She not only told me all about it, but went ahead and used some of the products on my hair. I loved the way it felt afterward and will gladly continue to buy Moroccan Oil products here!
The prices are pretty fair, considering how expensive salons have gotten these days. I usually pay around $ 40 before tip (and believe me — these stylists definitely deserve tips) for my trim/​cut, along with the drying and styling, which is actually a little less than I expected. I’m definitely going to keep going back.
