Best Hair Styling near me in Big Chimney, Charleston

I had an excellent appointment at the Essence of Beauty Salon. The staff and services were very professional. Kiran was my stylist, and I am very happy with my hair style and overall experience. I live in Houston, TX and I'm in Charleston visiting my brother. I will return to the salon when I'm in town during future visits.

I am always pleased with whatever hair service I get, but It’s not just about my hair. Kelly offers a holistic cathartic experience within a calming space. Best stylist in Charleston.

I was very nervous after not having a trim in years. Tonya made me feel so comfortable, and she did an excellent job on my hair! Her curl cream is also excellent, my hair looks and feels so much better! I’ll absolutely be going back to Essence.

Kelly Knocked It Out The Park AGAIN!! Conversation is key in any relationship, the first thing Kelly asked was"What do you want to do with your hair??" I replied "I would like to have my curl pattern back" She immediately said "You're hair needs lots of moisture " & began giving reasons why it maybe drying & also tips on what to do in btwn visits. She listens & uses what I tell her with her knowledge bank to come up with the best solutions for me. I'm glad she's on this hair journey with me. WE (my hair & I) are very pleased.

My daughter wanted a look for prom that other salons said was not possible with my daughter's hair type but not y'all! My daughter was given her dream hair style for her special day and I learned so much about caring for our hair! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Everyone no matter what hair type needs to come to y'all 💜 we will be back!

I drive 5 1/2 hours one way just for Kelly to do my hair!! She’s worth every mile!! She will wash, dry, trim, cut and absolutely lay my hair DOWN in 1 hour. How she does it so efficiently, professionally, and beautifully, is like a perfectly choreographed dance. I never got so many compliments on my hair until I started going to Kelly and listening to her teach me how to take care of my natural mane. Truly, one of the best in the hair game!!!

I highly recommend Bre’s Braid Bar. I got mid-back senegalese twists and they look amazing! They are very neat, lightweight, and not too tight. Breonna was professional, friendly and made my whole experience very comfortable. I will definitely book with her again for my next braid/twist styles.
