Twist Salon on 30A — Local services in Alys Beach

Valerie is absolutely the best on The Emerald Coast for curly hair!

I did not go in with a plan as I trusted Valerie completely after she revived my bothers curls so I just let her do what she thought was best. Worth it 🙌!

She cut my hair while dry which not many salons do for curly hair. At many salons they used to straighten my hair then cut it and I would hate it because my curls coil and changes the shape completely. Cutting curly hair dry is so much better in my opinion because you can take into consideration the volume and the way the curls will naturally lay after the cut.

I loved that she gave me layers too (never had them before and I’m obsessed with them 🤩). She shaped my curls to beautifully frame my face which I feel like is so important especially if you have a round face shape like mine which doesn’t have much definition.

I often neglect my curls sometimes because of the frequent maintenance/busy schedule so I’m very pleased that she also help me navigate a curly hair routine that works for my busy and active lifestyle while still keeping my curls healthy, voluminous, and defined.

She was very thorough too. Even though I didn’t come in with a game plan she made a digital vision board on her phone so I would have an idea of what it would look like and could give my input which was so sweet and professional of her.

Valerie is an expert...

Moved here 6mos ago from SoCal. Had a reliable hair stylist for years. You all know how challenging it is to find a new stylist (fixing hair mistakes takes time and money, right?). I researched and called places with no luck. Thank God I came across the Twist Salon in Santa Rosa website. Great location, to start. From the receptionist, Ryn, who was so accommodating and kind over the phone, to being greeted warmly by Teresa, the owner, when I arrived, to meeting VALERIE GREEN - my NEW color & cut specialist. We spent time discussing my ideas. Showed her photos of my hairstyle (cut and color). Showed her the color I definitely do not like. I listened to her and after we agreed on the service, she showed me the outline of costs which was so respectful and very professional. It’s been 6mos since so it was almost like starting from scratch with her. At least I know that moving forward, it will be the usual maintenance every 3-4 months. So happy and grateful to find Valerie and Twist Salon. I did pray to find the right person. Ladies, I highly recommend Valerie!! Your search is over. (Not fond of posting photos but it’ll show you...
