great haircut!

by chichi99

I tend to obsess over my hair. I moved to the city about 5 years ago and continued to drive 2 hours back home to get it cut. With that process getting old I began to research hair salons in the city. After reading the reviews for Ultra I decided to give it a try. Sharon did a fab job of styling my hair. I have long thick straight hair and was desperate for a cut to make it sexier and more fun. I got exactly what I asked for ! I am hard to please when it comes to my hair so consider this review when searching for a good salon. Also, Gia gave my hair the most gorgeous blowout! Gotta try this place out!

• Pros: you get the exact cut you've always wanted
• Cons: cash/check only but thats not a big deal

Ultra Hair Studio THE BEST SALON of 2009

by katrinasalov

... Thanks so much again, dear Kristen, it is honestly still the best haircut I´ve ever had!!!!!!!!!! And I really was trying to figure out how to come more often to you but I do a lot of crazy things but flying to Philadelphia from Germany to get a hair cut would be too much, unfortunatelly. So I just enjoy the cut and the compliments I get.

Have a great rest week and make more people as happy as I am. You really deserve the "Best in Phili 2009"!

Big hug from

Katrina

• Pros: Go Kristen !
• Cons: none in Germany :(

Ultra Hair Studio- Great value 4 the money.

by JuliannaP

One of my favorite places in Philly. I say "places" rather than hair salons, because I leave Ultra feeling better not just about my hair but about life in general. The atmosphere is kitschy-cool and impeccably clean, they play music good enough for the stylists to sing to, they serve coffee in mugs with images that change as they cool, and Sharon and Kristen have incredibly positive outlooks on life. Of course, they also do great hair. I've gone to Kristen three times and she gives my straight hair the perfect amount of layering and angles (enough to give it body and style without it looking too funky - which is exactly what I ask for).

• Pros: love thats in my neighborhood!
• Cons: cash only- no cards
