This is, hands down, the best salon I have been to. I walked in a mysterious redhead with long hair and walked out a sassy short haired blond. The amount of work it took to strip that color was extremely tedious but I was... (more)

I haven't been going to Stranded Beauty Bar for very long (just three visits), but I would follow MINDY PALMER anywhere. I first met her in September 2005 and, at the time, I was scared to death of hair stylists messing... (more)

So I went in to get my hair cut - nothing crazy I wanted the posh haircut -the one that everyone has I know that but for them to tell me that made me feel smaller. The girl cut my hair but it was a bob-kinda. She cut off like 4... (more)

If you want attitude, go here. I was mocked to my face for using a non-salon shampoo. I never went back. Other friends of mine have horror stories. Not the salon for me. (more)

Made an appt. with them cause it's walking distance from the Boardwalk and went to get a cut while my teens hung out on the boardwalk. This is a young couple really making a go of their business. They were very, very... (more)

I gave Stranded two stars because I have two words of suggestion... BE ASSERTIVE!!! After my stylist of many years left the area, I found myself looking for a new salon. Back in Jan. 2008 I read so many rave reviews... (more)

I've been here three times and each time was a disaster, I really get the sense that most of the stylists don't know what they're doing. Maybe I'm just really picky (which is understandable??), I mean, I did grow up in... (more)

Stranded has it all! First the basics: convenient location/parking, check. An attractive/comfy interior, check. Now add to that the always pleasant Penny (efficient scheduler/reminder-er extraordinaire... (more)

This salon is definatly a step above the rest of the over priced under educated salons in S.C. They have a very friendly staff, especially the receptionist Penny, Who by the way not only gives you a reminder call, but... (more)

I have never felt so disrespected by a salon! I went to Stranded Beauty Bar to get my hair dyed and cut, only to discover that it had not turned out the way that I had hoped. Upon filing my complaint with them, I was told that... (more)

I just left Angi's chair with the best cut and highlight I've ever had! She's got a classical, beautiful style that always sends me out the door feeling pretty and feminine. Her attention to detail and her client's... (more)

My roommate and I randomly decided to get haircuts so we wandered into this salon and the receptionist put us on a list and brought us sodas. I only had to wait about 20 minutes for a stylist to be ready for me. His name was... (more)

I've been going here for about a year. Penny is one of the most efficient friendly receptionists I've ever seen. Jason and Roxanne the co-owners are great stylists, as are the others. Whenever I go to any salon I like... (more)

Being new to the area I had put off getting a haircut for about 9 months because I was reluctant to start all over with a new stylist. I found this salon on Citysearch and I was so happy that it lived up to the other reviews.... (more)

I couldn't stand looking at my long, overdyed mane. Although not wholly ready to chop it off, I went in to see Roxane at Stranded determined to do so. She convinced me that that was unnecessary, and gave me a great funky... (more)
