Know What Services You Need

Before you start searching for a salon in Lubbock, think about what services you actually need. Some salons specialize in certain areas, so it helps to narrow it down first.

Common services include:

  • Haircuts and styling
  • Hair color and highlights
  • Extensions (find someone who is certified in the type of extensions you want before you make this investment!)
  • Skincare, waxing, event makeup, updos, etc.

If you are looking for something specific, like balayage or curly hair care, make sure the salon has experience in that area.

Read Reviews From Lubbock Locals

One of the best ways to find a great salon in Lubbock is by checking online reviews. Look at what other people are saying about their experiences.

Pay attention to:

  • Consistency in positive feedback
  • Cleanliness of the salon
  • Customer service
  • Photos!

Local Facebook groups and Google reviews are great places to find honest opinions from people in Lubbock.

Check Stylist Experience and Specialties

Not every stylist is the same. When choosing a salon in Lubbock, take time to look at the stylists who work there.

Many salons post their work on social media. This gives you a chance to:

  • See real client results
  • Find a stylist who matches your style
  • Check experience with your hair type, especially if you have curly or coily hair

Choosing the right stylist is just as important as choosing the salon itself.

Compare Pricing and Value

Prices can vary widely between salons in Lubbock. The most expensive option is not always the best, and the cheapest is not always the worst.

Look for:

  • Transparent pricing
  • Consultation options
  • The ability to get booked when you need to maintain the hair you want.

Focus on value instead of just price. A slightly higher cost may be worth it for better results.

My Personal Choice

A few years ago, I simply did not go to a salon. I box dyed my hair and trimmed my own ends. I had the okayiest hair and never got any compliments. When I met Red at Rebellion Salon, that all changed.

I've had blonde, vibrant color, and silky black hair- changes that should not be possible without damaging hair, unless you go to a color expert, which is what I've done. My hair has never been longer and healthier in my entire adult life. I actually get compliments!

Also, the vibe is just absolutely right. I normally dread any type of appointment, even for fun stuff, but I look forward to seeing my stylist, who has now become my friend. And that, I feel, is the ultimate goal in finding your perfect salon.

Whoever you pick, make sure you're comfortable, feel understood, and will enjoy getting your hair done. You deserve all of that, in addition to beautiful hair.
