After moving to Pittsboro and having to leave my stylist of many years I tried two different salons, and both told me they couldn’t give me the color I had always had. Enter Eric who did! He took the time to talk to me about my previous color, what I had experienced, and what I wanted. He looked at my pictures and we went through some different color options. My color was just what I wanted - so great that I had to hold myself back from visiting the other spots to say, “See?!” Top it off with a beautiful space right downtown - I couldn’t be happier! I won’t go anywhere else.

Beautiful location and Eric is fun and friendly. He fixed my messed up Highlights from another place. Eric took his time to make sure it was done right and I love my hair. The next day I had six compliments SIX!!! I haven’t had a haircut this good in a decade. Highly recommend.

If you are looking for a new hair stylist, look no more! A couple of weeks ago I decided I needed a pick-me-up and thought getting my hair done would be a good start. That said, I booked an appointment with Eric Michaels in Pittsboro. I didn’t go with a specific hairstyle in mind, just the realization that I needed something new, something that would lift my spirits. I left it up to Eric to decide what to do and boy did he deliver! Now I realize this was a leap of faith on my part, but I honestly didn’t know what to do with my hair, it was outgrown and shaggy and there wasn’t anything about it that I liked at that point.When I got in the chair, he of course asked me what I had in mind, and I told him the truth, I didn’t know what to do with it I just knew that I didn’t like what it had become. He then studied it, fluffed it, studied my profile with it up, with it down, and decided on what he thought would look good. And then he went to work and let me tell you, I have never (and I am not a spring chicken) loved a new hairstyle as much as I love what Eric did with my hair. The man truly has a gift, not just a talent, he has a gift. How he took the mop that was on my head when I got there and turned it into hair that I now love, is beyond me. I felt a thousand times better when I left his salon and will go to him for as long as he is there and cutting hair. We are so lucky to have him here, do yourself a favor and book an appointment at Eric Michaels Salon in Pittsboro, you won’t regret it!Service: Hairstyling

I'm so glad I found this salon! Eric Michaels is very skilled and highly talented. Unlike other salons, I can provide a photo of a hairstyle I want, and that is exactly what I get. I've also been very satisfied with the hair coloring and highlights. He may very well be the best hair stylist I've ever had, and I'm in my 60's. I highly recommend him.

When I went to Eric for the first time, my hair color was in need of fixing. He did a wonderful job with the color. I had my appointment a month ago and the color still looks great! I am very thankful for finding a stylist that I will keep going back to.

First of all I am giving this salon a 1star bc that is the lowest allowed. I was so excited to visit this salon after reading all the positive reviews. I had a terrible experience. Eric colored my hair totally different than the picture I had shown him. I mean if you can’t do a balayage just be honest. He teased my hair so bad that he couldn’t get a brush through it without ripping my hair out. Also 2days after my color I woke up with a red swollen ear. After visiting the doctor to find out I suffered a chemical burn ? I called him to let him know to prevent it from happening to someone else. This was 3wks ago and I still have not heard from him. Where is the customer service these days?? I think this was a result of him multitasking clients. He was juggling me and 2 others clients that day. If your into assembly line style salons and poor customer service than this is the place for you!!Services: Shampoo & conditioning

Clearly I should have made my appointment with Eric instead of one I did. She gave me the worst haircut I have ever had, in spite of having shown her a photo of the back of my head with the proper cut. She used an electric shaver on the ends on both sides. I don’t know what she thought she was doing. The color and highlights are ok.Services: Hairstyling

Eric Michael is basically a magician. I came in with some terrible highlights (from another salon) and he was able to fix my hair and make it look fabulous. Eric and Haley were so kind, friendly and did a fantastic job.Service: Haircut

It's been many, many years since I've had a haircut and style that I felt was "really me". After reading so many good reviews about Eric, I decided to give him a try. He spent a lot of time asking intuitive questions and handling my hair before beginning the cut. He actually got it! Minimal care cut but beautiful and versatile. Being a senior citizen, I asked him to make me look younger and he certainly complied. Eris has a new regular.Services: Haircut

I can't say enough about Eric. He's highly skilled, kind, very entertaining, and most of all I left feeling transformed. He's an amazing stylist, exceptional cutting skills, listens patiently to what you want, and follows through with exactly what you requested. I highly recommend this salon. By far the very best in the area. Kudos Eric! ?Service: Hairstyling

This was my first visit with Hayley at Eric Michaels Salon and I will be back! I have very thick, longish hair and went in for lowlights, highlights, and a trim. She was patient, thorough, and very professional in listening to my hair "wants and needs" and then customizing and delivering! Thanks, Hayley!

After my beloved stylist of nearly 15 years retired, I decided to visit Eric for a cut and color, and BOY AM I GLAD I DID! He seems to take great pride in creating a warm and welcoming environment for everyone and he is a truly a master of his craft! I left the salon wishing I had somewhere to go to show off my new locks. Big shout out to Haileigh for her kindness, professionalism and skill as well. I rarely write reviews, but felt it was important to do so in this case because my experience was such a positive one.Service: Haircut

Eric is masterful with color, a true professional and a wonderful part of a great community. Being new to a salon and coming from a big city, I was a bit nervous to give a small town stylist free reign on color and cut and Eric knocked it out of the park! He was concerned about color and style but also health of my hair. He is genuine and cares. As I left he said “welcome to the community,” which isn’t something I have experienced in other establishments in Pittsboro. Highly recommend.Services: Haircut
