DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT

Kind words from our guests

"10/10 recommend coming here!! The salon itself is so pretty and comforting, and the employees are super sweet, personable, and knowledgeable about all things hair… honestly it was the most relaxing experience I've ever had in a salon."

LAUREN M.

"I followed Emily from a salon much closer to home, but the extra drive is worth it! The atmosphere at Prickly Pear is very upbeat, the stylists clearly all get along well and their focus is making clients comfortable and beautiful."

KIKI F.

"After a not so great salon experience I came to Prickly Pear at a friends recommendation. Best decision ever.  The salon itself is very cute, comfortable and the perfect vibe. Everyone was so happy and friendly! My hair looks amazing and I feel so confident in continuing my hair journey here!"

WHAT WE DO BEST
Our Specialties
All Things Blonde

You want blonde that looks like you were born with it, not like you're constantly maintaining it. Our lived-in blonding techniques are built for a grow-out that's just as beautiful as day one. No harsh lines, no six-week panic booking. And if you want something a little bolder? We can do that too.


Think: rooty, seamless, and believably you. Or not you at all.

Dimensional Color

You want color with depth, the kind that catches the light differently depending on the day and never looks flat or one-note. We build richness into every formula so it stays intentional and interesting long after you leave the chair.


Think: lived-in depth that earns its keep between visits.

Cuts & Styling

Whether you're after a bob that means business, a short cut with real personality, or long layers that move the way hair is supposed to, we cut for your texture, your routine, and your real life. And if you want to leave with a full blowout? We're into it.


Think: a cut that holds up, whether you style it or don't.
