| - When I started with Yelp two years ago, I decided to go on a salon tour. I had been going to the same girl for years (and she's great), but I felt like I needed to explore our city and see what's out there. My friend Quinn recommended Kenna. And then about a month or so later, Kenna was the stylist at a wedding I went to Asheville. Okay universe, I get it. Next stop on the tour: New Seele.
Kenna has done my hair now three different times. I always do cut and color. She nailed the color I wanted from the very beginning. She's always straight up honest with me about my hair. (Fact: I go way too long between visits and my hair looks rough) She always knows the right thing to do to get it healthy again. She does Keratin as well. I have never done that, but contemplating it for next Summer. And on top of all that, Kenna's super nice. Price-wise: I would say the moderate to high moderate range. Is that a thing or did I make that up?
Where is New Seele? It can be a little tricky to find the first time. It's located inside the Sola Salons building over by Atherton Market. There's a bunch of a little salon type shops there. This is another thing I like: you're the only person at New Seele for your appointment. Don't get me wrong, sometimes there's nothing better than hearing all the gossip flying around a salon. But sometimes, I just want to enjoy getting my hair washed without hearing strangers bitch about their Tinder date or the fact their boyfriend sucks.
What's her story? You may remember her from Modern. She was there before she decided to open her own shop. She's also won some of those best of award type things in the city.
Kenna is definitely on my list of stylists I recommend here in Charlotte. She joins Terra (Illuminate Salon), Mel (Therapy), and Erica (Salon 42) as my top picks. Granted, I by no means am an expert and there's a lot of great ones out there I haven't discovered yet, but they're my top four so far.
