Best Hair Salons In Shelby

“Dakota was amazing :3 they took a lot of time to make sure they understood exactly what I wanted even though I am very picky with a lot of specifics, and totally cared just as much as I did about every detail. They took the time to make sure I got every single layer correct and checked all of their products for my allergies and were so incredibly easy to talk to, I have never felt more comfortable in someone's chair. They really did amazing at making my hair look masculine but fun, and changed the styling afterwards to make it more gender affirming“

“I'm so glad we found this hidden Gem. My Husband has been looking for a good place that listens. And he was VERY satisfied with his cut and will now be our Hometown Barber Shop.“

“I am new to the state of NC. Looked for a beautician who knows how to do natural for seniors. Visited twice. From the moment I walked in, this beauty shop felt like home. The space was clean, warm, and inviting—every detail reflected care, pride, and professionalism. What truly sets this shop apart, though, is its deep respect and love for natural African American hair in all its beauty and versatility.

The hairstylist, Ametra, was genuinely welcoming, kind, and attentive. You can feel their passion the minute they touch your hair. They don’t rush, they listen, and they treat your crown with intention. It’s clear they understand natural hair—not just the styles, but the history, the care, and the confidence that comes with it.

This is more than a beauty shop; it’s a safe space where natural hair is celebrated, not “fixed.” The atmosphere is uplifting, the energy is positive, and every stylist carries themselves with professionalism, skill, and heart. I left feeling refreshed, confident, and proud of my natural hair.

If you’re looking for a place that honors Black hair, values cleanliness, radiates warmth, and treats you like family, this is the shop. I highly recommend them.“

“Charlotte Terry is the best. My wife loves her so much. She is such a fine person and a joy each time she gets her hair done!“

“If you need a massage, go see Kanethia—she’s amazing. From the moment you walk in, she makes you feel so comfortable and relaxed, and she really listens to what your body needs.

I went in super tense, especially in my shoulders and neck from everyday stress, and left feeling so much great. I honestly felt like I could finally breathe again.

The pressure was perfect, and you can tell she genuinely cares and knows exactly what she’s doing. 10/10 recommend—I’ll definitely be going back!“

“Elizabeth not only took me in later in the day, but she did an EXCELLENT job on my hair (which was a hot mess due to a previous terrible cut I got elsewhere). She was so much fun to talk to also, it felt like chatting with an old friend. Thanks Elizabeth, I’ll DEFINITELY be seeing you again!“

“I had such a great experience! I got a haircut, blowout, and style, and my hair turned out amazing. She did such a good job and was so nice the whole time. She really listened to what I wanted and made sure everything looked perfect. I absolutely love my hair and will definitely be coming back!“

“We’ve been going to this great clips for years since we moved to Shelby. I mainly come for my kids but I’ve gotten cut or trim a few times. I’ve never had a bad experience at this location and everyone has been super nice. The manager is super sweet and helped distract my youngest so she would look up with toys when she got her first haircut. BUT my review was mainly going to be about Rahiem! He is so amazing! He’s so sweet and attentive. The first time we saw him my son was getting his haircut by someone else but she couldn’t do a simple design in the side of his faded side but Rahiem was fast to offer his services:) ever since my son never forgot him! We kept missing him but this time I finally called to ask when he’d be in. I watched him interact with an older lady as we waited for him who seemed to have some damaged hair and he was so sweet to her and took his time. I really have never seen anyone to connects with customers like he does and truly seems to care to his core. When it was my son’s turn he was nervous to get a Mohawk but that’s what he’s been wanting. Rahiem had a vision and my son trusted him:) Rahiem seriously exceeds most any hair stylist I’ve ever seen! Ask for him! You won’t be disappointed and we will be back! I may go back for my hair!:)“
