I had Elisabeth last Friday and she gave me such an amazing haircut! I came in not knowing exactly what I wanted, but i wanted my hair shorter and my curly hair tamed. And my goodness she did it so fantastically! I wasn’t sure what I was expecting but she exceeded every expectation I had. My hair has more volume and shape than it’s had in a long time. Thanks Elisabeth! I scheduled my follow up appointment same day 🥰

I’ve been going to Confidence Hair Salon for YEARS and will drive whatever distance I need to, to go there. When I first got my hair done by Christy, my hair was frail, wouldn’t grow, and my previous hair stylist left me with a mullet. It’s taken some time (a couple years), but my hair is the healthiest it’s ever been, and finally growing. Christy is so knowledgeable, and if my hair can’t handle what I want, she’s always been very upfront and honest, which I appreciate SO MUCH. After coming to Confidence Salon, I can’t say I’d trust anyone else with my hair.

Usually I see the owner of Confidence Hair Salon. But this time, Elisabeth took care of me. Very pleasantly surprised. Thorough, methodical, precise, took her time to do the hair process, great hair cut and blow dry. She loves what she does and it shows!! Thanks Elisabeth!

5/5 I always LOVE what my hair looks like!! Elisabeth absolutely kills it every single time. She has been working with me to take out my black box dye (never do it guys, it’s not worth it) and has given me so many cool ideas and switched up my color a couple times! Absolutely recommend to anyone and everyone!! LOVE LOVE LOVE!!

Christy is amazing! First off, it was so simple and easy to make an appointment. I was excited but a bit nervous for my appointment as I wanted something different but not too wild. I came in with pictures and ideas of what I wanted. She did her thing! I was absolutely in love with the outcome! She made my vision come true and boy was I picky! If you’re thinking about doing something different, big or small change, go see Christy! You won’t regret it. My favorite part was she was such a sweetheart! It was so nice to talk to her and she was just so genuine. I will definitely be back!

I recently got my hair done by Christina, I ended up with car trouble and got slowed down for a wreck, I was an hour late. She was the most understanding if the situation. She paid the closest attention to each highlight and made sure the placement was perfect. Her friend and bubbly personality made the bad of the day fade away. Not to mention the amazing job she did on my hair. Recommend 1000 times over!

Christy was amazing! She saved a botched box dye job for my daughter and helped her feel confident going into 2025! She was a great communicator, was straightforward and upfront on cost and plan for the time, and we will definitely be using her again in the future!

Christy is awesome! I made my first appointment with her after reading reviews and she is as great as everyone says! Asked lots of questions and provided options so I could get the cut I wanted. Now Im going to her for color in a few weeks. Cant wait!!

Christy did amazing on my hair! She took my purple/blue and black hair. And turned it into an amazing black and red balayage. My hair feels healthier and looks amazing. And she even gave me product recommendations that will help keep my color vibrate longer.Christy is super nice and welcoming! First appointment with her was a long one and she made me feel super comfortable. 100% will keep going back to her for all my hair needs.

Christy is absolutely amazing! I got my hair colored and cut my her about a month ago. She is a genius with color and super sweet and down to earth! Not only did I love the color but she also added some curls for me just to jazz it up. The whole experience was pleasant and I can’t wait for her to do my makeup and hair for my wedding day!

Review 11 (2024-10-06 - Rating: 5)
Elizabeth did a wonderful job giving my curly hair a fresh cut and style! I showed her an inspiration photo, and she asked questions throughout to ensure the length and style were what I was hoping for. She exceeded my expectations! The salon itself is immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. Fantastic experience! I highly recommend!

Review 12 (2024-11-12 - Rating: 5)
ENVIRONMENT:Walking into the salon, it’s immaculate. No loose hairs, dust accumulating, and no dirt or cob webs under the chairs. Designed well with comfortable but stylish chairs and lighting that isn’t harsh. The air is easy like you can’t even tell they do coloring there. The chairs you wash your hair in as well as get your cut in are extremely comfortable. It’s so incredibly relieving to get your hair washed and not have that bright light bearing down on you.HAIRCUT:The actual haircut itself was the epitome of a chefs kiss. Love it. She’s a wizard with shears. I went in with a couple ideas and I left bouncing with confidence. She took into account face shape, hair thickness, and the eye she had for turned my vision even better. Trust her!! Trust them!!HAIRSTYLIST(S):Listen. Christy is a wizard. She’s warm, respectful, listens and communicates WELL. She was HONEST about my expectations and hair in regard to how much time it takes to style certain hairstyles (bangs) and the humidity of Florida before committing. She went back in after the blow dry to ensure the hair looks good instead of saying, “next time we’ll do this instead” (which has happened before). Elizabeth as well was so, so friendly and charming. They make the cute environment even better and listen. 10/10. 100/100

If I could give her a higher rating then 5 I absolutely would. Christy did so amazing on my hair and gave me EXACTLY what I wanted. I could not recommend her enough. The place was clean and cozy. Super welcoming and the girl she was working on before me was absolutely raving about her hair. I LOVE my hair.

Christy is such a sweet and personable person. She takes her time and explains all of her steps to you and you can tell she loves what she does! She literally brought my hair back to life from the dead and she didn’t rush the process. She actually cared about my hair and experience! Absolutely amazing!

Review 15 (2021-09-27 - Rating: 5)
I got my hair cut by Christy this morning, and she was so sweet & did such a great job giving my hair layers and bringing it back to life. She was really knowledgeable and helpful about styling tips!

Review 16 (2024-10-05 - Rating: 5)
I’ve been searching for a new stylist for awhile. Had some okay haircuts with various salons around town but hadn’t quite found “my person”. This salon had great reviews and I found a slot in their online booking for the next day - score! Christy personally called me a little later to say the spot was actually booked but worked with my schedule to find a time in the next couple days. I was really impressed with her customer service and kindness.At my appointment, she took time to ask a lot of great questions about what I liked about my hair, my concerns, how my hair behaves, etc. I wanted to do color at some point so we chatted about what that might look like for another visit. The cut was great - curls are hard to tame and she did it masterfully. I came in with hair that felt thin, had stopped curling in weird spots, and just overall shapeless. My curls are back now!For the color we made an appointment in the future and she wiggled some things around to make sure I could get it done before a big event coming up. I love that she wanted to do some research on what might work best and is sending over some ideas.

Review 17 (2024-12-17 - Rating: 5)
I have been in Gainesville for a little over a year, my husband, my mother and I moved from Key West, I immigrated to this country almost 9 years ago and got married in 2020 in Key West. I had my stylists and used to keep highlights in my hometown because I worked for many years in a Criminal Court and I had to maintain an executive image for the work I did for more than 15 years. Here in Gainesville, I would get my hair cut somewhere else and take my mother for the same, but we were not happy with the results. I searched and found these girls from confidence salon on Google and made an appointment for my mom and I personally, 3 days later.. we were served by a beautiful girl named Elizabet… polite, attentive and very patient with my mom who is 81 years old, who went with me to get her hair cut, while she put the color on my roots and waited for the time, she cut mommy’s hair, and although, at the beginning there was a little inaccuracy while we “understood” each other (since we have different languages) her professional and patient work in addition to her absolutely delicate service, defines the result of her work as top level… my hair has been touched by many professionals, (and I can say with all seriousness that this girl is the softest I have ever done in my life) in my hometown I had my hair done by a stylist who obtained his knowledge in France, then in Key West I had my hair done by two professionals trained in this country and now that we have moved to Gainesville, I feel very pleased with the service received with the girls from this Salon… I don’t know where they are formed, but I am very pleased and recommend them with my heart.

Christy is truly a magician. My hair has never looked this good in my entire life. She is extremely professional and charges fair prices. She did a consultation with me to discuss all my options and then she explained the entire process to get the hair extensions and how to care for them. The install didn’t take long and they are very comfortable- no pulling or tightness. If you want hair extensions, then you would be doing yourself a favor to get them at Confidence Hair Salon.

Review 19 (2024-12-04 - Rating: 5)
Christy did a great job with my hair! She explained what she was doing and answered every question I had. I’m very happy and will be going back.

Elisabeth does my hair like no other! She gave me flawless layers, and a newly found confidence in my new hair. She’s wonderful!

Review 21 (2024-04-18 - Rating: 5)
Christy is amazing! I came to her with very damaged hair and she helped me get my hair healthy and beautiful again! She is very thorough and knowledgeable. She does a fantastic job every time. :) I highly recommend her.

Review 22 (2023-03-15 - Rating: 5)
Christy is nothing short of phenomenal! For one, she is friendly, professional and attentive. Her rates are more than fair in addition to discounts offered. What sets Christy apart is her dedication to client satisfaction and most importantly, her expertise! My hair appointment now takes half the time it used to and it’s absolutely perfect unlike past experiences. Last, using the online booking service is a breeze. She is the best stylist in Gainesville, hands down!

Review 23 (2022-09-08 - Rating: 5)
COLOR GENIUS! Late appointment availability and will make sure you leave with 100% satisfaction! I have dark brown hair and went to an icy blonde. I was nervous about this transformation because in the past I’ve left looking very orange. She did a fantastic job! I got exactly what I wanted and it only took one session! Also it is a very fun environment.

Review 24 (2024-02-24 - Rating: 5)
Had my first appointment today and was beyond impressed. I wish I had a good before picture of my hair so you could understand the magic she worked. I seriously can not remember the last time I was so happy with a salon experience and my hair. I showed her one reference photo and she was able to give me exactly what I wanted. I feel that I was truly listened to and that my preferences were noted and beautifully executed. She also helped me set up a plan for my hair’s future to keep it healthy and happy. The salon itself is very clean and comfortable. Could not recommend this salon more.

A youngster on fire..Elizabeth...my haircut is perfect 👌 what a nice human being..salon Confidence of Gainesville was also on point..very relaxed and yet professional..thank you all.

Review 26 (2024-04-26 - Rating: 5)
Exceptional service & haircut! Christy went to great lengths to make sure I have an amazing salon experience taking her time to care for my hair. She took her time to dry cut my hair first and did excellent job on highlights. She seriously gave me one of my best haircuts I’ve ever had, doing exactly what I had asked for. I’ve got so many compliments from my family and coworkers. I’m so happy that I finally found my new hair salon.

Review 27 (2024-05-09 - Rating: 5)
I called to schedule an appointment for my daughter’s graduation photoshoot. In addition, I asked Christy if she knew any makeup artists. Christy not only recommended someone, but allowed the makeup artist to come to her salon. I was incredibly happy with the service provided by Christy. She is kind, talented and professional. The salon is adorable.We ended up getting rained on so Christy fit us in the next day to redo my daughter’s hair. Christy is amazing and so sweet! Thank you for saving us and helping my daughter look beautiful on her graduation day.

Elizabeth colored my hair . I showed her the picture of what I wanted and she nailed it . It is such a beautiful color for Fall . I will always make my appointments with her . I am a very happy customer.

Christy is amazing! Shes super friendly and really knows her stuff when it comes to hair color. She always listens to what I want and gives great insight on how to get the desired result while still keeping my hair healthy. Im always so happy with how my hair turns out! I would definitely recommend Christy to anyone looking for a talented, educated, and experienced hair stylist.

Review 30 (2023-10-01 - Rating: 5)
Christy did a wonderful job on my hair! She covered up the gray nicely and finished it off with a lovely cut and style. Also the experience was enjoyable with a just right amount of chatting and not chatting. I would recommend her. I have thin straight shoulder length grey hair and it looks much much better now.much better now.

Review 31 (2024-03-30 - Rating: 5)
One of the best & honest hair dressers I have ever been to. I went in for a full highlight for my super long, dark brown hair, & instead of taking my money, she tested my hair first. She found that my hair was way too damaged to bleach, & instead nursed my hair back to life with a treatment & really good cut. I am now a short haired, silky brunette goddess & can go back next month for my blonde era. 10 out of 10 recommend. FYI my boyfriend LOVES IT! Thank you so much for the makeover I didnt know I desperately needed

Review 32 (2024-07-19 - Rating: 5)
I highly recommend Christy to anyone! She gave me the best haircut I have ever had, and I am 51 years old. I get a lot of compliments on my hair, and more than that, the compliments are followed with Who cuts your hair? Evryone I know asks for her name and number. You are in safe hands getting your haircut from Christy! Which, as we know, is not always the case. I have fine textured hair that has waves when someone knows what to do with it, and Christy sure has the gift to make my hair look full.

Review 33 (2023-11-14 - Rating: 5)
Christy has brought life back to my hair! I got beaded row hair extensions and I am in love. Christy matched my hair perfectly, I get so many compliments on my hair. She takes her time and makes sure that the customer feels confident and happy with their experience. I would recommend her to anyone.

Review 34 (2021-05-02 - Rating: 5)
I absolutely love Christy and the service she provided! She is down to earth and makes my hair look amazing everytime she colors it. I have used her for over a year and she never disappoints!

Review 35 (2023-10-03 - Rating: 5)
I had the best experience with Christy! I have been in Gainesville for a few years and have always traveled out of town to get my hair done. I took a chance with Christy and I am so glad I did! She listened thoroughly to what I was looking for and explained what she was doing throughout the entire appointment. I am so happy to have found her! I feel so much more confident with my new hairstyle and am glad I do not have to travel anymore to get my hair done! Seriously go book with her... she is truly the best!!!

This place is Excellent!!! Gigi the stylist is beyond excellent!!! Professional in many cuts” i highly recommend this place” once your here you will be a client!!!

Review 37 (2023-11-17 - Rating: 5)
Christy is sweet, amazing and really cares about her clients. She takes the time to listen to her clients and her work is stunning. My daughter went into her appointment with really damaged hair from a previous salon and got color, hair treatment, cut, and extensions. She walked out of the salon looking like a model. The extensions are so perfectly blended, that even though my daughters hair is damaged you cant tell the difference between her real hair and the extensions. Her friends now all want Christy do their hair. The salon is very clean and beautiful. The other girl Christina that works there is super sweet as well and does a great job (she was doing someones hair when we were there and it came out amazing as well). So blessed to have found this salon. We will definitely be recommending her to everyone we know.

I had posted looking for a new hair stylist. I was new to town and didnt want to wait to long. I went to someone else who completely messed up my hair and charged me an arm and a leg!! I needed someone new to try and fix it. Confidence Salon came recommended a couple of times. I contacted Christy and never looked back. She took her time, fixed what the other stylist messed up and did what i initially had wanted. Its been a couple of years now and i will not let any one else color or cut my hair. I will recommend her to anyone. She is so sweet, works wonders and is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!!! She deserves way more then 5 stars!!!!!

Review 39 (2023-06-15 - Rating: 5)
I cannot recommend Christy enough! Ive been highlighting my hair for years and am very particular about it looking natural while also being low-maintenance. I had only ever been to one stylist for my hair before Christy so I was excited and a little nervous. She was so professional and really took the time to make sure my hair looked exactly as I wanted while keeping it healthy. We ended up doing a full highlight with toner and a root tap to achieve my dream golden blonde! My hair has never looked this good and Im so thankful to have found Christy!

Christy is amazing! She is the first person I can trust down here in FL with my hair. She nails it every time. She is also very professional and kind.

Review 41 (2022-06-20 - Rating: 5)
Christy was so patient and took great care of my hair while lifting it to a color I’d never thought it could get to in one session! She paid attention to every little detail and made sure my hair didn’t get damaged in the process. I love my new hair, the experience was great, and I was so so comfortable. Great talks and great hair.

I had the best experience ever! I haven’t had my hair done since moving from Ohio! Two years ago. Nervous wreck & I left so extremely happy that I made the plunge & made an appointment. ❤️ (after finally reaching someone! God works in mysterious ways) what a true hair goddess

Review 43 (2023-11-15 - Rating: 5)
Christy and Christina are so nice and were so helpful. After getting my hair colored at a different salon, it didn’t turn out the way I had hoped. Christy was able to squeeze me in quickly and help me with color correction. After doing a test strip to lighten my hair, we realized we would be unable to make my ends lighter like I had hoped. However, Christy talked to me and we made a plan of how to make me feel and look good in a different hair color. And she did just that! I got SOOO many compliments on my hair the next day. I have found my new regular salon and I couldn’t be happier. Thank you Christy and Christina!!

Review 44 (2024-03-08 - Rating: 5)
I am beyond satisfied with my hair. The color is spot on to what I wanted. Christy is a very talented colorist. She is great to talk to which makes getting your hair done that much more enjoyable.

Review 45 (2023-10-13 - Rating: 5)
Christy is amazing! I found her on word-of-mouth social media and took a chance...and I am so glad I did. I hadnt cut my hair in about a year and a half, due to my previous cut with another stylist not being my favorite. I had to let the shortest pieces grow to a length that I could handle before I went anywhere. I explained my dilemma to Christy and she handled it flawlessly. We decided on what we thought was a good length (which she was more conservative with due to my previous experience), I showed her a few pictures and we were off and running. She went as far as to say that she wanted me to love the length so much, that she would rather cut it while it was wet, and then do another dry cut once it bounced up a bit, if I didnt like it. I love my new length and already cant wait to go back just for a trim! Shes a great human and great at what she does!

Review 46 (2021-08-16 - Rating: 5)
Christy is amazing!! I have always liked colors like plum purple and blue but my hair is really dark and hard to show bright colors. She is a very nice person and will be honest about what youre hair needs. She said that she would try to get me where I wanted to be in one shot and she did an amazing job! She has me as a customer for life!

Review 47 (2022-09-10 - Rating: 5)
My hair is thin and damaged due to health issues. Christy was so thoughtful and kind. Not only did she do an amazing job with my hair, but she really made me feel better about it. Haven’t had this good of a haircut in years. Great price, great skill, and just an all around great person. Thank you!

Review 48 (2023-06-23 - Rating: 5)
This is the best hair salon in Gainesville!! Christy knows everything there is about styling hair and the best products for each hair type. I have curly hair and I went in for a wash/blowout, and she knew exactly how to treat my hair and make it stunning. She left my hair feeling so soft and exactly what I asked for.Her customer service is also super amazing and the environment was definitely somewhere Id want to go again. I really recommend her!

Review 49 (2023-04-13 - Rating: 5)
✨ The best hairdresser in all of Gainesville! ✨I have been going to Christy for almost two years and I do not plan on going to anyone else from now on. Christy is so talented and genuinely loves what she does! (that is something you dont see very often!) she makes you feel comfortable in her chair and has you leaving the salon with confidence!She has taken great care of me and has been so patient with me as well. I personally have a severe allergy to certain chemicals in hair dye and Christy has been so attentive and taken great safety measures to ensure my health on top of making my hair look AMAZING every appointment. She even took the time outside of work to research specific hair dyes without the chemicals im allergic to, which was amazing. I have never had a hairdresser who showed me so much care before.If you are looking to get your hair done anywhere, id suggest to stop searching and going to Christy!

Review 50 (2023-04-18 - Rating: 5)
I would totally recommend Christy at Confidence Hair Salon. Her space is very welcoming and comfortable, I immediately felt at ease walking into her salon. She takes a real interest in her clients and my sister and I love all the details she remembers from our previous visits. Every time I leave my hair looks a million times healthier and she knows how to give low-maintenance cuts that grow out really nice, which is just what I asked for. I only wish I could transport her to Pennsylvania!

I was looking for a new hair salon and was looking here in Gainesville and I found Confidence Hair Salon and read the reviews and I wasnt disappointed. Christy was awesome from the moment I walked in the door. She was very welcoming. She listened to my hair goals, and we made a plan to achieve them. I never clicked with someone so fast or became so comfortable with. Officially the only person I now trust with my hair. My hair still looks and feels great. I cant wait till my next appointment!

Review 52 (2023-04-05 - Rating: 5)
Christy deserves all the stars (5+!). She is so easy to talk to, personable and informative. She is easy to set up a new appointment with (although she books up fast and I can see why!). She took time to ask questions and make sure my hair was absolutely perfect. Left out of there feeling like a million bucks!

My daughter and I went to see Christy as part of a girls’ day before starting middle school. I have curly hair so I’m picky and Christy’s reviews were great. She was amazing! She cut my curls perfectly. She was patient and friendly. My daughter and I both felt very comfortable with her. We both loved our hair and my daughter started middle school feeling great. Thanks so much Christy!

Review 58 (2022-12-03 - Rating: 5)
I cannot praise Christy enough for the wonderful job she did on my hair! After I showed her a photo of what I wanted, she asked questions to make sure we were on the same page about the look I was going for which I really appreciated. She was very professional and you can tell she really cares about the client. Overall, she was very pleasant to talk to and made me feel so comfortable. I’m in love with my cut and the awesome waves she did for me too!

I had such an amazing experience with Christy. It has taken me many salons and many tries to get my hair to the point that she got it in one sitting. She is very trustworthy and takes her time to understand what exactly what you want. Will be going back, make sure to book with her! She’s awesome ❤️

Review 61 (2022-07-13 - Rating: 5)
I got hand tied extensions put in by Christy as well as some color. She did an extensive consult with me beforehand and answered every little question I had. She made the process so easy and is such a professional. She also added custom color to my real hair and extensions and matched them perfectly. She really has thought through every detail of the process to set up her hair extension clients for success. Also, her online booking system makes booking my next appointment so easy. She really has perfected her craft. I get so many compliments on my hair and I always leave pleased. Client for life!

I had such a great experience at Confidence Hair Salon! Christy was professional and very knowledgeable about all things coloring. I wanted to go lighter and she did a fantastic job making me brighter and blonder! It has been a few months since my last appointment and the color has held well. Can’t wait to go back and see her again!

Christy is an AMAZING stylist and will make your hair look fantastic!! In her lovely shop she works on one client at a time and gives you her full attention. Christy put lowlites and extensions in my hair and it looks better than I could ever have imagined. I am thrilled with the service I receive at Confidence Hair Salon.Christy is kind, friendly and professional. She really cares about her clients. I am so blessed to have found her.

Review 64 (2022-01-22 - Rating: 5)
Christy is an absolute miracle worker! She truly is a curly specialist guru. She brought my hair back to life and revived my baby curls. I was apprehensive at first cause lots of hair stylist claim to be specialists in curly hair but she truly is the real deal. Highly recommend to all with curls. She knows what she’s doing and such a sweet person! Definitely going back for more hair treatments and styles.

I have been searching for someone to be able to cut my very unforgiving, asian, coarse hair and I have found her!! Christy listened to me and gave great recommendations. She did exactly what I asked for and paid very close attention to detail. I would highly recommend her and I plan on going back and bringing my daughter. Thank you again Christy!!

Review 66 (2023-05-12 - Rating: 5)
This was such a nice experience. I was worried about my curls and greys but Christy brought my hair back to life! When I struggled to describe exactly what I wanted, she took the time to communicate clearly with me until we were both on the same page. I even left with a free sample of some awesome product. The price was affordable and I really look forward to my next session.

Review 67 (2022-03-19 - Rating: 5)
Christy is nothing short of amazing! I have been thinking of beginning grey blending my hair for two years now but was afraid ….. we’ll let me tell you the results were just perfect! My husband has told me how much he likes my hair 3 times since he got home from work today! I could not be happier to have found her and will be using her exclusively from here on out! Just perfect 🤩

I had a hair cut here and it was a real pleasant experience. Christy is comfortable to talk to and she takes time to listen what you want exactly for your hair, and she uses her skills and intuition to bring your hair back to life. And she charges fair price. Christy is totally trustable and this is the place you should go for your hair care.

Christy is amazing and I love Confidence Hair Salon! I have beaded hair extension wefts and she is the best at doing them! They last for months and never fall out! They are also very comfortable, look extremely natural, and I love them so much! Shes also great at cutting and dying hair I trust her to do anything to my hair! She’s also so great at working with you and has got me in so many times late at night or on weekends to make sure I get my hair done when I need it, which I appreciate so much! She’s also amazing amd I could talk to her for hours haha which I do each time I get my hair done! She’s amazing and this is the best Salon in Gainesville!!:)

Christy is awesome! She has a great understanding in coloring hair and explains the maintenance specific to the color you chose. She is great with hair cuts as well, does what you want and will discuss it with you if there’s any questions.

Christy was amazing. Im glad I found her through Facebook, I was looking through salons suggestions in my area and she popped up and had so many positive and amazing reviews, I knew I had to try. Before this I had only gone to chain places such as supercuts. She was able to answer all my questions I had about my hair and help me figure out exactly what I wanted in my consultation. Then when it came to the day I had my appointment to actually to the cut and color I was very satisfied with what she did. She makes you feel at home in her shop like you are talking with an old friend and Im sort of a shy person and dont usually talk much getting my hair done. I loved the experience and will no longer go anywhere else. I will recommend her to anyone looking for these kinds of services that she offers.

Christy did a PHENOMENAL job on my hair! Not only did my hair turn out better than I could’ve ever expected but it was also a great experience overall! She took my balayage inspiration picture and brought it to life. I highly recommend Confidence Hair Salon!

Christy is amazing. She really knows her stuff and will work with you to get exactly what you want. She gave me beautiful all over highlights that made me look like a natural blond and my hair still feels so healthy. She is also so fun and kind, I definitely recommend.

Christy is amazing! She’s the first person I’ve ever trusted to do extensions on me, and she did amazing. They looked so natural, I highly recommend the sew ins! She also does what you want, while giving you her best professional opinion. I found my forever hair person!! 10/10 recommend 😊

Woow Service!!Elisabeth gave me a new hair color and a beautiful style too. Loved it!!

Review 76 (2022-06-17 - Rating: 5)
I cannot begin to describe how amazing Christy is! I first met her for a consultation as I’m still new to the Gainesville area and was very nervous about having someone new do my hair. She asked me very thorough questions and we looked over inspiration pictures for what I was wanting. That initial meeting immediately put me at ease, being with Christy is like being with an old friend! At my appointment we went over what she’d be doing and she talked me through her process every step of the way. I could not be happier with how my hair turned out and I would highly recommend anyone to come see her because the woman is magic!

I made an appointment with Christy after noticing my friends cute short cut. Booking with her was easy and I did not have to wait months to see her. When I walked into her studio, I was greeted with an infectious smile and warmth. She was finishing up with someone else so I waited in her lobby area and enjoyed filtered water and good magazines. When she was ready for me, I felt like I was having a reunion with a friend. We connected right away. Because this was my first time seeing her, I showed her a few photos of some ideas I had, and I felt confident just giving her creative license. And no joke, she did exactly what I wanted. I ran my fingers through my hair and new she hit the nail on the head. She styled me and sent me on my way feeling confident and excited to have made this connection. I look forward to seeing her again for some color, and of course, future cuts. She is an artist who has good insight to what a persons hair will and wont do, and her intuition is strong and accurate when cutting hair. I cannot recommend her enough. I have fine wavy hair for reference. Also, she is LGBTQ+ friendly.

I was lucky to have found Confidence Hair Salon as the first place I tried after moving to Gainesville. My hair is picky about where it is thick and thin, so I need someone who can work around my hairs needs. She does just that in the most perfect way! I went from longer hair to a style that I had years ago with a simple photograph. Shes just that good! I went back and she trimmed it perfectly according to where my hair grew faster than the rest! I suggest her for every hair need!

Christy is an absolute professional at what she does. I came in as a new client with damaged thinning hair due to weight loss surgery and left with a healthy beautiful haircut. She is amazing and I was more than satisfied. Looking forward to my next appointment.

Christy is amazing! She was recommended on GWOM and I’m so glad I contacted her. Not only did she do my hair for my wedding but she also did my mom’s hair who has special medical needs at the moment. She is very patient, kind and makes you feel like you’ve known her forever. Please go see her! You won’t regret it!! ❤️

Christy was so kind from the moment I called her for an appointment until the moment I left her salon. I took it upon myself to cut my own bangs which turned into a disaster. Christy took in the challenge and fixed my hair. I’m so grateful for her and the work she does. I absolutely would recommend Christy for everyone’s hair needs

If you are looking around for salons and you are like me and like to support independent hair dressers rather then corporations, go to Confidence Hair Salon!!! You will not regret it!! Christy has extensive knowledge and experience with hair and you can tell just from the way she tells you EVERYTHING she does to your hair and why she does it. She will also do a test strand which really shows that she knows what she is doing. Christy also will make you feel like you are her absolute top priority and will treat you amazing!! When I was with her I truly felt like I was her only costumer. Christy gave me her full complete and undivided attention for the whole 7 hours I was with her. What I wanted was a pretty big job and took a lot of skill and time- it was pretty tedious and she did it PERFECTLY!! Absolutely phenomenal!! I was speechless when I saw how amazing it looked- truly! If you guys want an experience that you can’t find anywhere else and want the best service you guys got to go here!!! I truly can’t explain how amazing she is and the amazing experience. Thank you Christy!!

I found this salon on Google as I am from out of town. I am very particular about my cuts as I have very thick hair and it needs to be cut so it lays well. I am more than thrilled with my highlights, toner and cut. I would highly recommend coming here and I dont give 5 stars very easily. Thank you again!
