True Image Salon

If I could give Phuong (Sarah) more stars, I would! I have been coming to see her to get my hair colored for almost two years now, and I would not even think about going to anyone else! She’s passionate about her clients and always consults prior to starting. Phuong also is careful not to damage your hair and takes care of you from the start.
She is also very on trend with hair colors and is basically a blending QUEEN! You will not walk out with zebra stripe highlights or blocks of colors. She makes the colors look seemless and beautiful!
Also check out her IG account (@true_image_salon) for more pics!

Such a warm and cozy vibe here. My daughter and I enjoy our cuts. I’ve been coming here since 2007 and have been so happy with my continuous service!

I’ve been going to True Image Salon since it first opened a couple years back around 2010 I believe. It’s a small salon ran by a couple (honestly think that’s so cute) yeah I have been going to Sarah since the 7^th grade. She has such a bubbly personality which is great. Her hair skills definitely upgraded a lot since she first opened! She even did my hair for prom and it wasn’t just me who loved it, but everyone at prom loved it! It is hard to get an appointment now since she’s always busy but it’s worth the wait!

Sarah was very helpful and honest. I had the intent of dying my hair a plum/​purplish color but after Sarah’s recommendations, I decided to opt for a red shade. The color came out nice and I was satisfied with the overall quality of the service. FYI her assistant does an amazing shampoo/​washing job!

I love Sarah she those such a beautiful job with my hair customer service perfect!!! I walk out a whole new person

Wish I could give 0 stars! Absolutely the utmost unprofessional «salon» I’ve ever been to. After being called on Friday at 5PM canceling an appointment for the next day that had been previously scheduled for well over a week… I was offered an appointment for today at 4:30… Waited an entire hour, the girl, I guess her name is Sarah, never came out to apologize or tell me she’d be late or even a courtesy call prior to me making my way down there. Save your time and money, not sure how anyone could stay in business with this type of terrible service, or lack thereof.

Sara killed it.
I honestly never would expected all this greatness to come from a corner salon in south philly. From the start I was iffy about my decision, but after leaving her salon I have no doubts.
Her team is just so sweet and helpful. Sara herself is so much fun and took my worries away.
I showed her some pics and explained what I wanted, color and cut wise. And she perfected everything I wanted. I’m so happy with the results.

I reside so close to this salon and have walked past in on many occasions. I needed a haircut so decided to try it out. I walked in and the lady behind the desk didn’t initially notice me but after saying excuse me she answered my question. I waited almost an hour to start my haircut. That didn’t bother me at all seeing the fact there’s only one gentlemen who cuts hair for the guys.
The gentlemen who cut my hair was very nice and professional. He asked me several questions on how I wanted my haircut and also was easy to communicate with. Throughout the haircut he made sure I was ok with it which I was. There is a waiting area you can sit in and also a television. It’s not fancy but those are usually the best places to go.
It’s $ 12.00 for a men’s haircut (cash only). The parking is ok in the area if you go before 6:00pm. This places closes at 7:00pm and is closed on Monday I believe. They have a lock on the door so you have to knock or ring the bell to be let in which is ok with me. I think it’s a smart idea and more businesses should implement that.
I will for sure be coming back and look forward to my next haircut. If you haven’t been here before and your in the area stop by and try it out.

After reading other reviews here, I walked in late one Wednesday morning to ask if they had any openings for later in the day, and was told I could get my hair cut right then. After a luxuriously long wash, Sarah arrived to cut my hair. She was very friendly and very happy to talk with me about the condition my hair was in and what I wanted to do with it. I just got a cut, nothing fancy, but she still took her time and clearly wanted to be sure everything was perfect.
With service like that at such a low cost ($ 20), I will definitely be back!

I’ve been searching for a new salon to go to for about a year now until a few days ago when I discovered True Image Salon. I was on instagram when I saw a photo of some girl’s hair and I really loved her haircut so I did some digging and thats when I found Sara. I was on her instagram for only a few minutes and I call her and booked an appointment right away.
I got my haircut today and I love my hair. Sarah was so kind, soft spoken, and she discussed what I liked and didn’t like before snipping away. First she measured my hair (because I was donating it) and then asked me if I was okay with it. Then she started cutting my hair. She was so gentle!!! I’ve been through a few hairdressers who yanked my hair while cutting it but Sara was probably the first that didn’t yank my head LOL.
Anyways, she’s so sweet and extremely skilled! Seriously, if you want a fab haircut, just come to Sara!

I’ve heard of this salon through some friends and instagram. Sarah does a wonderful job at coloring and cutting. I came in with 50 shades of brassiness and came out with 50 shades of blondes, grays, and silvers. I showed her a picture of my desired look and she said she would try to get me as light as possible. With that being said I didn’t get my hopes up but by the end of the entire process, she exceeded my expectations completely. Not only was she able to take out the brassiness within my hair, she was able to lift my hair to this beautiful smoky-​blonde shade. It was exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend this salon! It’s a given that Sarah does lovely work but she is also kind-​hearted, warm, passionate, and hilarious. She talks you through the entire process which is comforting for those who are nervous about coloring their hair. All in all, I’m pleased with my hair and will be returning. Two thumbs up :)

Sarah is for sure my new regular stylist. I came in after reading so many positive reviews and she lived up to every one of them. I brought in a picture of the hair style I wanted, and we spend about 5 minutes discussing what I liked about it. It was a short hair style, and she discussed the length with me for a while (I assured her I normally wore my hair that short). She then shampooed my hair, the shampoo stations have chairs that you basically lay down in, which seemed weird at first but was so much more relaxing then a normal chair.
While cutting my hair she made sure to ask a lot of questions. She also always used pictures to help with the process. She was incredibly professional, and showed a lot of enthusiasm about even my relatively simple cut. The best part of my experience was, after discussing my morning hair routine (ie, doing basically nothing), she blew dry my hair without a brush to show me what it would look like every day, and then after when back and styled it nicely.
Including tip, it came to a total of $ 25. Also: they stopped taking credit cards, so it’s cash only!

Sarah is amazing! She asks a lot of questions to make sure she gives you what you want and she really knows what she’s doing! Plus, her enthusiasm and sweet personality make the experience very enjoyable. I will certainly go here from now on!

Soo, I specifically made this account just so I can let everyone know what a great stylist Sarah is! I am pretty picky with how I want my hair cut so I’m uneasy with just going to any salon. I’ve gotten my eyebrows done here before and she did a great job so I thought hey why not get my hair done here too. Before she started I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted. (Layered in the back, angled in the front, with side swept bangs). She got started right away, no hesitation. She kept me informed every step of the way, even pausing to let me have a look to see if I was satisfied. I felt very comfortable throughout the process. In the end, I’m VERY pleased with the work she did! She’s quick, confident and I’d definitely recommend her to friends and family.
My hair looks good, feels good, woohoo! Will always be coming back :)

My husband and I are regulars there and we’ve been going to true image to get our haircuts for the last 2+ years. Sara always does her best to make sure her clients leave the salon feeling beautiful! She actually takes her time to go through a small consultation process with you to see how you want your hair cut/​colored before she works on you. I always tell her that if I was rich, I’d hire her every morning to style my hair.
The salon is very well kept, all her salon equipments are up to date, she uses good quality hair products, and best of all: her prices are very reasonable!
Her partner (I believe his name is Sal) is the barber and he always gives my husband his weekly shape ups. Sara and Sal are both humorous and they love talking with their clients, so you’re always feeling welcomed.
We live 25 mins away, but a ‘true image haircut’ is worth driving for.

This place is the best well kept secret in South Philly. Sara, the stylist and owner, is a real artist when it comes to hair and i’m so glad i took the chance at going to this place. You will get HIGH QUALITY salon haircuts, color, and hairstyles from here at an extremely reasonable price. The first time i went here i got my hair cut and ombred. The haircut was perfect, but the ombré color didn’t take to my hair the first time around because my hair is so dark. So i went in a few days later and she fixed it all FREE of charge. She even stayed over an hour past the time the salon closes just to ensure that i went home happy. The second time i got a haircut, i mentioned the fact that i was going to a party later, so she blow-​dryed my hair curly for me AND styled it for me, all coming to a grand total of only $ 25! So just think about that the next time you want to spend $ 50+ for a haircut at a different salon.
P.S Bring pictures! She will match your hair to them perfectly

Great and sharp hair cuts here. Haven’t been to another salon since.

The best haircut you can get. Consistent and perfect everytime. Travel from jenkintown to get there. Never go anywhere else. You guys gotta try!

For years I had saved up, week by week, so I could go to a fancy salon in center city to get my hair cut, colored and styled. I figured, you want a nice ‘do, you gotta go to center city, right?
Apparently not!
I switched to True Image Salon (8^th and Morris in South Philadelphia) about 4 or 5 years ago on a recommendation and have never looked back. Sarah, the owner, is an amazing stylist, using high quality products, gets my color right every time, is always up for an adventure with my ideas, and helpful with my «tough» hair decisions. The salon is bright, modern styled, there’s always something good on the radio and I love gabbing Sarah’s ear off. Gentlemen need not feel left out, there is a barber on hand, Sau. Can’t beat the price, either.

I was refered here by a customer where I work. I noticed her great haircut, and she gave me the card for True Image Salon and told me that Sara would not disappoint. If all strangers gave great advice like this one, I should trust them more often!
Sara (stylist & owner) was extremly professional during my appointment. She ensured that I was comfortable, and walked me through her image for my hair (which had not received a major cut in 3 years!). Sara took the time to listen to what was important to me in a new hair style and really followed through on what we discussed. I LOVE my new hair, and received so many compliments the first day.
This is a great, comtemporary styled salon that makes you feel very welcome from walking in the door. You will not be disappointed if you pick this as your next salon for cuts, or colors!
