The Argan Hair Salon & Spa

A great experience! I think I've finally found my salon. Sia did a great job with my hair - she didn't weigh it down with tons of products and didn't try to sell me on any extra services or products that I didn't want. This is probably the first time I've walked out of a salon and really loved my hair. The prices were also very reasonable. I'll definitely be going back!

I usually don't write reviews, and I gave myself about three weeks to calm down, but I feel I need to share my experience. I am new to the area, looking for a nice stylist, so after reading the good reviews on Yelp, I called this place and made an appointment a week or so in advance. When I showed up for my appointment, the woman at the reception was at a loss and couldn't find my name. I told her I had an appt with Mel, and she told me that was her. Instead of apologizing for the confusion and rescheduling me, she proceeded to call another woman, who I assume is the owner, and she told me "sure, sure you have an appointment, come on back and we'll take care of you!". Bottom line: I spent FIVE hours in that place! FIVE HOURS! Not because my hair is difficult or because I had anything special done, just because these folks were understaffed and overbooked, and not willing to lose a buck by turning away clients. I, like most women, like to have my own stylist, build a "working relationship". In this place, I had at least three people doing my hair at different times. They left me waiting WAY TOO LONG with color in my hair, I'm surprised it didn't fall out. When I finally complained about the time, two women jumped to dry my hair, which was extremely painful, but at that point my butt was numb from sitting there and I was just ready to LEAVE ASAP. It was the worst experience ever! And for about $200, you could at least OFFER me some water, coffee, something. I had to ASK for water. I think a snip and clip place would be more professional. On a different note, I am originally from a non-English speaking country myself, but when surrounded by English speaking people, OUT OF COURTESY, I speak English, because I don't want to be rude. It is incredibly ignorant and rude for three women to surround a person (me, in this case) and look at my hair and speak a language I don't understand. I do NOT recommend this place at all. Stay away, unless you have $$ and 5 plus hours to waste on a Saturday.

I have gotten fantastic hair cuts here. Sia is my stylist, does a great job and does not rush. She takes her time, pays attention to detail, and always leave happy.

I was calling around several salons today to see who was available last minute for cut and color and came across this hidden gem. Sea was my stylist and she was wonderful! I went in with faded, dry and dead hair and left feeling like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. The color is beautiful and vibrant, my hair is silky and smooth again. I cannot express the gratitude I have towards this salon and all the stylists who had a say in my hair style today. I will, most definitely, be a return customer. And the price was extremely surprising, much lower than expected!

I was looking for a good place to do my hair in Raleigh and came upon this salon. Did not like how my hair turned out nor the price. Was given one price initially and it increased by the end of my appointment. Wont be going back here. Don't recommend this place.
