Hair Addict — Local services in Town of Huntington

I have to say I am not usually one to bash a business when everyone in it is great besides the owner. I have come to this salon for the past year to get my balayage done. I have always loved the stylist who does my hair and everyone else is super nice. However, after my last visit I was not happy whatsoever due to the way an outside favor (that was FREE mind you) was handled and is still being handled by the owner Angela. I am best friends with the stylist and she has done my hair for years now, so being the good friend that I am I continue to go to the place where she works and when I expressed financial distress after my last balayage and stated to her in private that I have been dealing with a lot of insecurities and self esteem issues due to my thin hair, she mentioned hair extensions. She told me what website to go on to buy them and which ones would go great with my new hair color. I bought them on my own through the website and was told that since we have been best friends for awhile and I am dealing with a lot of financial issues at the moment if I buy the extensions she can do me a favor for my birthday and install them at her home free of charge. After my installation was done she posted a photo of her amazing job on her personal Instagram page. Being that there was no written agreement to her not being able to do her best friends hair at her home, I was extremely surprised that she was fired the next day due to this favor. The past few weeks I have been witnessing the brutal retaliation from Angela that has consisted of her getting this stylists personal Instagram taken down with years of hard work (not done at Angela’s salon) and the few she did at Hair Addict deleted. Angela has gone so far as to having her unemployment denied so that from this ONE service, this stylist is now losing out on the money she would have continued to make in the weeks following my installation. I have read the Facebook messages to this stylist from Angela accusing her of extremely career altering actions which are far from the truth, and have read extremely unprofessional and immature messages from this owner to a stylist who has brought in plenty of clients to her business. I am truly disgusted by the way this situation was handled by Angela and I don’t think this should go unnoticed by clients, future clients, as well as future employees of this establishment. It is clear that one situation like this can set a fire under her butt to use her title as owner to ruin someone else’s hard work and dedication...

I needed to take the time to write this true authentic review because people need to know the truth about Angela and the beauty of Hair Addict. After turning 50, going thru 30 + years of the hairdresser carousel, menopause and an enormous amount of stress, my beautiful long blond hair was slowly starting to turn to straw and it was short. Short hair is just NOT for me. I began to think about extensions and came across several reviews of Hair Addict on local Facebook and Instagram reviews. I also stalked their IG page and noticed some beautiful work she had done for charity to a woman that lost her hair due to brain cancer. It was incredible and I had to check this salon out.

So one day in November of 2021, I walked in to Hair Addict, without an appointment, to check them out. I was greeted by her amazing staff who introduced me to Angela, the owner. I was so depressed and I think Angela felt for me! I hated my hair and always wore a hat to cover it. Angela immediately made time for me to evaluate my hair and discuss the process of extensions. I then ordered my new hair and a week later was transformed! I felt like myself again and I felt beautiful again. I cried and then Angela gave me a hug me and cried! Angela and her staff do impeccable work and in my opinion, Angela is a master in her craft and if you get to know her well enough, you will know her backstory, her struggle and see why she loves what she does and puts her heart and soul into her work.. I will NEVER again go to another salon. I trust Angela and her staff at Hair Addict like I have never trusted another stylist before. You will have no regrets about the services they provide. Hair Addict has become like a family to me. The Front Desk staff is great about communicating pricing and appropriate tips which has always been awkward for me in the past.

They moved a few moths ago to an expanded space and it is beautiful and welcoming. You will have no regrets about making an investment in yourself at Hair Addict. Be wary of "fake" negative reviews because the world of social media brings a lot of haters to a strong successful woman and business. I am a client for a year now and I will never go to...

Wow! Love is all in the hair!!! Thank you Angela--- You're a miracle worker--- I'm absoutely AMAZED!!! What an experience! I'm beyond grateful to have had the opportunity to have your expertise, your exceptional skill, and your love for loving what you do - working on my hair. My extentions are beautiful, manageable, blended to perfection, and everything I been hoping and praying for! ---Angela, your work has given me back my smile! --- I cannot thank you and the entire team at Hair Addict enough!

After a year of "hair trauma" I'll call it, I was just too embarrassed to even venture to another salon, for the possibilities were limited, or so I had thought. But I did my research, and found a couple of Salons and Stylists who specialized in extentions, so I made the attempt to schedule appointments. After speaking to Theresa, Hair Addict's Manager, who is most accommodating as she is knowledgable (she offered her professional advice and suggestions to me as I had explained that I had been "salon shopping" for quite some time; she compiled a list of questions that I could and should ask when seeking an appointment at a salon with a stylist who specializes in extentions) I truly knew from that moment on- that Hair Addict Salon and the styles that it creates are the ones backed by continued education, credentials, certifications and such passion to make it all possible! Hair Addict is the most loving, well- designed, clean, and inviting space filled with glamor, friendly faces that match their kind personalities, which is the perfected combination the Hair Addict Salon works with them and with every client there- with a special thankyou to Victoria, and Reffaele -My style couldnt have been as fire without you!

Hair Addict Salon will cause your steps to become struts when you leave becoming a more beautiful version of yourself and evoking extraordinary levels of confidence. It's all about the feel good and look even better vibe that you'll feel when you're sitting in the chair- you're hair is in the most exceptional care. I'm looking forward to building an everlasting relationship with Angela and her team of stylists at Hair Addict Salon!! Until...
