Changes Salon & Day Spa

I went to Changes based on some of the positive reviews I’ve read on Unilocal.Sorry to say I was very dissapointed. I realize that I walked in last minute to make an appointment and I am a first time customer but that’s no reason to put your most inexperienced stylist to cut my hair. You would think they’d use someone more knowledgable to keep you coming back, right? Jim told my stylinst that i wanted a shampoo, cut and style. Jennifer seemed very attentive when I showed her pictures and explained what I wanted. I have short very fine hair… it took her over an hour to cut it. It seriously felt like an eternity. Then she asked me if I wanted it shampooed, um. yes. After the shampoo she asked me if I wanted it styled. What do you think Jennifer? of course I do. Then she asked me how I wanted it styled. I seriously got frustrated at this point because we had gone over it at the begining of the service, with pictures no less! She didn’t put any product in my hair before she started styling it, I had to ask her about it then she put a little dab of mousse in it. The style looked awful. I have never in my life complained out loud at a salon but I finally had to say something when she asked if I liked it. ABSOLUTELY NOT. I looked crazy and asked if she would walk around looking like this. Luckily Jim came over, finsished styling my hair and I left satisfied. He charged me just for the cut which I do appreciate.

Everyone I came into contact it was wonderful! I did the half day «Oasis» treatment package (mini-​facial, 30 minute massage, manicure and pedicure) the day of my wedding to relax. Jim was attentive and made sure I was comfortable and had everything I could possibly need. He even did a little something special when he found out I was getting married that evening. Rebecca did my mini facial; she was very sweet and professional during the treatment and my face felt incredible afterword. Iva did my mani/​pedi; she is soon friendly and funny. I got to know her the longest and it was a very enjoyable experience and both my sets of nails are gorgeous. I live in Raleigh but may still be making more frequent trips up to Greensboro to have them do my hair. Will definitely recommend to friends!

I am correlating with Lauren B.‘s review from 10/​16/​2015. I don’t know her, but unlike all of the other 5-​star reviews, my opinion of Changes, like Lauren’s, is low. I shared my concerns when I booked an appointment last summer that I’m relatively new to this area and I’m having difficulty finding a good stylist for my super-​straight, baby-​fine hair. I was told that Iva would be perfect for me. Like Laura B., I had a picture as well, of a cut that would work for my fine hair. My length was past my chin, almost to my collarbone as I had been growing my hair out for three months. To match the picture, I asked if she could keep the length and match the cut – she said she could. She cut my length off to just below my ears, she cut my hair crooked, and both sides were not even. I was not happy, and she knew it. Early the next morning I called and explained my situation to Jim, the owner, and he said he would let someone else fix my hair and got me in that night. The second person to cut my hair tried to even it up and cut the sides even shorter – ear length… and my hair was past my chin before Snappy Scissors Iva started on me. I started tearing up, feeling anxious, and saying how I felt about how dreadful my hair looked and how devastated I felt about it. The stylist said she was done – she took off the cape and was going to let me leave, just like that. I was feeling terrible about what they both did to my hair. Jim asked if he could fix it and he did a little evening and straightening, but the damage was irreparable beyond his expertise. However, he kept telling me how great it looked, how wrong my assessment was, and how my co-​workers would LOVE it. Not one co-​worker commented with a positive remark – not one. My two best friends, who tell me the truth, even when it hurts, both said it was a really, really bad haircut. I was very upset when I left the salon, but Jim did give my money back (I did not ask). THANKS CHANGES!!!

I was fit in for an appointment later in the evening after I had gotten off work. I even had to take my son with me. Everyone was super nice and very knowledgable. I have very curly hair and was in some serious need of base color and highlights as well as a cut. Jim did my hair. He is so good at what he does and made me and my son feel right at home. I have already made another appointment! I have found a keeper! Thank you Changes!

So I was back at changes yesterday to see my fav person, rebecca! I got some fab highlights (blonde) with a small blue streak. So fun! Turned out excellent! If you go in, don’t forget to ask for a glass of wine. A few relaxing hours at the salon with wine, almost nothing better! Oh, and as a birthday present they sent me a 45. Dollar coupon for a facial. I’ll be there right before thanksgiving for my facial. Everyone there is super nice!

Great experience! It was my first time here and Camrin was SUPER friendly, accommodating and strategic. She listened to my specific (somewhat too detailed) requests and gave me exactly what I wanted! Blondes, go to her. Highlights were right on point for my preference and trimmed/​layered my hair based on my face without taking too much off the ends! The conversation in the chair was very genuine– no salon gossip (which I hate!) To top it all off– the prices are EXTREMELY reasonable! Best service and best deal in town :)

While everyone here was very kind. I’m not sure why it has all 5 star reviews. Perhaps their specialty is simple cuts? I am new to the area and specified that I had extreme anxiety about going to someone new and I wanted someone who had a lot of experience. I was booked with Iva. When i went in for my appointment she was very nice. I explained what i was looking for and the variations to the picture I wanted. I specifically asked if she thought it was possible to convey the style (asymmetrical) but in a longer length. She just said that yes she could do it. That does nothing for whether or not it will actually look right or complement my face shape, etc. I’m not hoping for a miracle worker but in general i expect my stylist to know what works with face shapes, how specific styles are supposed to be, and how colors will complement skin tones, etc. After she started the cut she informed me that she had very recently graduated. This is enough for me to not return. When someone with anxiety asks for someone who is experienced they do not want the person who just graduated and is trying to build their client base. I am HAPPY to pay extra to get the extra experience and knowledge. And to top it off… The style of cut was clearly for a curled hair style. When I booked the appointment I was not in any time crunch to try to get it ASAP I could’ve waited until they had ample time to do the necessary cut color and style. But instead after she cut it she informed me she didn’t have time to curl it. Which made it impossible to judge then whether or not it was cut like the photo. So I was unable to determine then. Sure it was a very cheap cut and color but in my opinion it also looks that way. I will continue my search for a new stylist.

I am new to the area and I was on Unilocal looking for a new salon. I am always reading reviews and that’s what caught my eye about this salon. I felt good about it and made the appointment. So first off my hair is absolutely gorgeous! I went in a blonde and came out brunette. My stylist Iva did a fabulous job. Second, the owner Jim is such a nice man I really enjoyed chatting with him. It’s clear that he really loves what he does. He was right there to help out with any questions I had. What a team effort! If you’re on here looking for a salon, look no further. This is a very cozy, friendly atmosphere.

This place is wonderful! I had a last minute cancellation at my usual salon the week before I was in my friend’s wedding. I called Changes because of the great reviews on Unilocal and Jim, the owner, worked me in the next day. He did my cut and color and my hair looked great for the wedding. The salon is nice, location is great, and everyone was friendly. I am definitely coming back here in the future.

ATTENTION BLONDES Go to Cameron! I’ve had blonde hair for 6+ years and I’ve never loved my hair after an appointment as much as I did after Cameron was finished! She’s knowledgeable and so sweet. It also didn’t hurt my pocket! Can’t say enough good things. Thanks Changes!

So happy to have found Changes. In a tizzy on the eve of a holiday weekend and they were able to accommodate me. Rebecca did a great job on my hair. She took her time and listened to what I wanted. Best of all, I was able to recreate the look the next day! Everyone at the salon was incredibly kind and complimentary — not just to me, but to each other. I felt welcomed and comfortable there. Will definitely go again.

So happy with this place! Thank you Changes Salon. The Best!!!

I am from out of town so I trusted Unilocal to find me a salon. I was not disappointed! Iva did a FANTASTIC job with my hair!!! She took her time and gave me a precision haircut. If you want to be ‘in and out’, see someone else. If you want someone to take the time and give you a great cut, see Iva. I also suffer from alopecia areata which causes small bald spots that grow back erratically. She blended my hair so well you cannot see them. I will certainly be back on my next trip!

I researched all the salons in this area by reviews left by other Unilocalers. I took my mother here and she was very happy, Iva did her hair and was extremely friendly and professional. I have been informed that this is the only place she will go from now on.

I’ve been looking for a new hairdresser since I moved to Greensboro a year ago. I’ve finally found that person in Angie at Changes Salon. She’s professional and does a fantastic job with cut and color. The salon is really cute and laid back. I’ve definitely found a home for my hair!

I love this place! It’s super cute inside, and everyone was so friendly. Angie cut my hair and she did a great job! She has cut my hair twice now, and I love the way she does my layers! I will definitely keep going back.

I’ve been coming to Changes since I moved to Greensboro 5 months ago. And you might know how scary it is to find a new salon and stylist when you’ve lived somewhere else!
Jim and his staff are amazing. I’ve loved my color and cut every time and am always well taken care of. Friendly and professional staff and clean environment. Thank you, Jim!

I found this place on Unilocal,and ended up going there for a haircut. Everyone there was very nice, and the woman who cut my hair, Krissie, was super nice and did a really good and quick job. It’s one of my favorite haircuts that I’ve ever had. I struggled to find a place in Greensboro with good reviews that didn’t charge what I felt were ridiculous prices. I was impressed by the price I got at this place, and I’m glad I choose to make an appointment.

Can’t say enough! Today, I was a first time customer who made a last minute appointment with Krissy. She is a class act. The owner, Jim, is a true business owner who cares about the clients and development of the stylists! Loved what the team at Changes did for me and so cheerfully! Thank y’all!

I’ve been going to this salon for several months now and I love it. I always go to Krissy and she is fantastic. I get highlights and a cut and she does the best color that I’ve ever had. It looks so natural. She is super friendly and professional and she’s efficient. I’ve never had to wait more than a few minutes for my appointment. I would highly recommend this salon and especially Krissy.
