Able to do layers for my crazy fine, thick, and irregularly wavy hair

I got a great hair cut from Jenean yesterday. It is not easy to find a person who can cut layers well on my baby-fine, but thick and irregularly wavy shoulder-length hair. As a result of any number of...

Not Best Chapel Hill Salon

Although Syd's received some nice reviews and prompted me to visit this salon, by experience was just OK at best. Compared to salons in Toronto, Montreal, NY, Atlanta, Syd's does not live up to excellence in...

Laura is the best!! by Sharon S. at InsiderPages

I've followed Laura from her last salon to Syd's and I still love it. It's a comfortable, funky setting with friendly people. It's very laid back but still professional.

Fun atmosphere, reasonable prices, great staff

I've been going to Syd's for about a year now and have only been unsatisfied once with a cut I got from a stylist I had never seen before. I usually see Gwen for cut and color; Marit is also awesome. I love...

Yelp.com Review - by Adrienne E.

5.0 of 5 stars. Syd's is the only place I've ever had my hair cut in Chapel Hill so I can't make the claim that they're better than all the other salons. Then again, Syd's is the only place I've ever had my hair cut...

4.0 of 5 stars. Hip place, high quality cuts. Could do just a little more to rival big city shops.

5.0 of 5 stars. My favorite salon in the area. Brad is very friendly, does a great job of cutting curly hair and is always willing to discuss different options for cut and color (I like to be very sure before making...

Syd's rocks!

A friend recently recommended Syd's Hairshop to me. After seeing her super cute cut, i was inspired to make a change. I have tried several salons in the triangle area with mediocre results. Syd's is relaxed...

Jenean has THE GIFT

I've had haircuts by a few different stylists at Syd's, and they were all very good, but I've had such great cuts with Jenean that I'm going to be requesting her from now on. She gave me great, long layers a...

Yelp.com Review - by Josh P.

5.0 of 5 stars. Coming from SF and LA, I've never gotten a good haircut in NC since I moved here nearly 2 years ago. That is until I visited Syd's in Chapel Hill. Gwen did a great job on my hair...kept it long, but...

Amy and Syd's both rock!

I just wanted to take the time to say that Amy Testerman is the best hairstylist I have ever had in my 30 years. She is friendly and always wants to know exactly what I want from the experience, and then does...

Amy and Syd's both rock

I just wanted to take the time to say that Amy Testerman is the best hairstylist I have ever had in my 30 years. She is friendly and always wants to know exactly what I want from the experience, and then does her best to make my hair look just right. I have come in with no idea what I wanted and just let her go at it, and she comes up with the cutest cuts. I trust her so much that Amy will be doing my hair for my wedding this May. I have recommended her to several friends, all of whom are now regular clients. Amy is an asset to Syds.

Depends on who you get

REVIEW 1: I had heard lots of good things about Syd's, so after moving back to Chapel Hill from New York (and getting great haircuts there!--and I am totally haircut-phobic. I cut my hair by myself for 7 years...

Great Chapel Hill place.

Syd's isn't your typical salon -- casual atmosphere and great music! Everyone who works there has tattoos and there is a gas pump in front of the building with flames painted on it. My haircut is great and she...

Yelp.com Review - by Smanda P.

3.0 of 5 stars. Let me start by saying that I always get a good cut at Syd's. The staff is quick and knowledgeable, and they're good at giving you a flattering cut. On the other hand, oh em gee, $30 and up. This...

RUN AWAY

I got the worst haircut and highlights---EVER...at Syd's. While the atmosphere was cool and relaxed, I left with hair that stunk (and the smell lasted for DAYS---even through like 25 washings) and I looked...

Fun, hip, not too expensive.

Syd's recently upped the price of a women's cut to $30, but this is still well-below what you would expect to pay in a cosmopolitan area for something of the same quality. If you have a blunt cut or a bob, and...

best Guy's cuts around.

I just got the best haircut ever at Syd's! It's textured and interesting -- no boring cuts here, plus the music ROCKS! They showed me how to use products and listened to me. I'm definately coming back!

STAY AWAY!

OK so I saw this girl in the post office who had great cut & color and she said she got it at Syd's & loved the place. She was either looney or paid off to say this. Based on her recommendation I went and got...

Best Salon on the hill!

Hipster salon for the college crowd

Syd's is the kind of salon you'll drive past on the street a hundred times and not notice until someone points it out to you. Then you'll wonder how you never saw it before. Tucked away behind the bus...

Reasonable prices for stylish haircuts by Sarah N. at InsiderPages

Syd's has a very laid back atmosphere- a nice blend of urban chic and Carrboro-like 'crunchiness' (organic, down-to-earth-ness, that is). I am not someone who likes to pay $50 for a haircut, so the fact that...
