The Hair After

Five stars for Tyler! My husband and I recently moved from Columbia to Hampstead. A google search revealed The Hair After as a solid choice for hair salon in the general area. I sorely needed a cut (long super wavy hair getting all the more out of control with each passing day). I made an appointment for the next soonest morning/​afternoon available slot and can not be more pleased that Tyler ended up being my stylest.
I need to relay that I am not a «social media» person at all. No FB, no nothin’. Stubborn ol’ Gen X’er here who values privacy and anonymity above rollin’ with the times. That said, Tyler did such a friggin’ fantastic job on my hair that I asked hubs to use his account so I can sing Tyler’s well deserved praises.
Tyler said he’s been at this salon for about a year; still the so-​called newbie amongst the rad seasond pros amongst him. My whole time with Tyler he was super-​focused on literally every millimeter of my hair. Not too long after he started working on me, there was a walk-​in client who requested him. While the employee who greeted him said that Tyler «would be a few minutes», it was probably a good 45 mins or so til Tyler completed my ‘do. I inititally worried that Tyler would subsequently speed through my service to get to the guy waiting for him, he did no such thing. Tyler continued to pay impeccable attention and time to sculpting my hair, excusing himself for a mere brief moment to greet and acknowledge the kid waiting for him.
Bottom Line: Probably the best haircut I’ve ever had, courtesy of Tyler. And for a fraction of the cost of most other places for what I received. Do yourself a favor and ASK for Tyler! The kid is incredible at his budding art and a sweetheart to boot!

I’ve given this place a few chances & I think I’m done trying. I have heard good things about Kasey but her schedule is booked up for a long time. I tried another girl (can’t recall her name) to get color and a cut. I waited 30 min even though I had an appointment, which wasn’t great. My hair did not turn out quite the color I wanted but I couldn’t tell until it was dry. I feel like she rushed through my haircut & didn’t even ask me if I was happy with it. If she did I would have asked her to take more off. Seems like she was rushing to get to her next appointment who was waiting for her because mine was late. I gave a decent tip even though I wasn’t thrilled with my hair, and she looked visibly disappointed at the amount. I paid close nearly $ 200 for everything, & that is nowhere near worth the money. Still haven’t found a decent, consistent place in Westminster!

Took me as a new client on New Years Eve day. I was not sure what I wanted but had an idea. Jesse was perfect and listened and helped to make my new braids work with the rest of my hairstyle. Very comfortable salon all staff was courteous and nice. Now I need to find a salon near Pittsburgh PA my hometown to match that experience

Love this place so much. I always get my haircut by Kasey. She does an amazing job on guys hair and anytime I want to do any type of color she gets it exactly right. Everyone is so friendly and courteous. This is a great place for the full salon experience. Massages, pedicures, manicures, tanning, the list goes on and on. I recommend all my friends and family to come to Kasey. She always is booked up quick so make sure you make an appointment early. Great place to visit!!!

I am a regular customer at the Hair After, getting my hair done by Kasey. I have always had a positive color experience. She has exceeded my expectations and I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

I love The Hair After! My niece and I go to see Kasey on a regular basis but any of the girls there do a fantastic job. Kasey is their specialty color girl, Mandi does great up-do’s, Karina is really wonderful at extensions and Ashley will do the cutest manicure for you.
Personally, I was afraid to go lighter but Kasey did it in steps over a period of time and now I’m really happy. My niece wanted a short cut but was apprehensive and Kasey put her at ease and gave her a darling kids cut. Kasey is also really great with my bosses kids and they all adore her.
If you don’t know what you want for Christmas or your birthday ask for a Hair After gift card and get a spa package. That way you’ll get to experience everything the salon has to offer!
There is plenty of on street parking and a small lot in the back in which you can access from the alley behind it. They carry an array of manic panic colors and unique hair accessories. Don’t forget to check out their cute décor!

I absolutely LOVE this place! Kasey has done my hair multiple times and I have NEVER been disappointed! She is incredibly talented is such a sweetheart, and has always exceeded my expectations. I will most definitely recommend anyone to go here. And I plan on going back soon!!! :)

I am a regular customer of The Hair After for several reasons, but mostly because no one does my hair quite like Kasey does. I came to this salon seeking a change from my old hairstylist that had failed to cut my hair the way that I wanted no matter how many times I asked, and Kasey was so accommodating and understanding. She listened very carefully to my concerns and vision for what I wanted, and then made honest, realistic suggestions. Fast forward a couple of years, and I have gone from a short brown-​blonde angular bob to a long, layered red-​to-​blonde ombré that is, without a doubt, my favorite hairstyle thus far. It was a process going from natural dirty blonde to all-​over bright red, but Kasey was understanding and let me dictate the pace of the transition, which was incredibly helpful. She is a master colorist, and has an eye for detail that is hard to come by sometimes in this industry — it’s also important to point out that she learned everything she knows as an apprentice and not from a training program, so her skills were gained in the field and it definitely shows.
If you are looking for a salon that is professional, welcoming, and up-​to-​date with modern color and style trends, this is the place for you. If you go to see Kasey, tell her I sent you! :)

Another update! I love this place so much! Kasey continues to do an amazing job. Been coming here for over a year and a half now and still very happy with them. The person who wrote negatively about her couldn’t be any more wrong. And though she does have an E-​cigg she does NOT smoke it near customers, not even in the same room. Also Kasey once offered to fix something I didn’t like for free, so I guarantee you will always leave there happy.
Mandi does a wonderful job on styles as well. All these ladies have skills!
Also got a manicure by Ashley, and it was just adorable with multiple accent nails and custom designs. I messed it up by mistake and she fixed it without complaint. She even told me what to do at home to upkeep it and keep it lasting longer.
Regrettably, that I have not tried getting a massage here, but I really want one soon.

A win win hands down! I stumbled across this place and all I can say is Wow! Very Impressive. This was an all around pleasant experience from making the appointment on the phone to paying the bill. I was astounded by their inviting atmosphere, friendly staff and raw talent. Mandi was fantastic and took the time to understand exactly what I wanted and executed her craft beautifully. This salon welcomes high expectations… You will not be disappointed. I will be back… undoubtably.

I drove from Baltimore to get my hair cut & colored by Kasey. I didn’t quite get what I had asked for, but either way I am happy with the results. Kasey was very nice and friendly and easy to talk to, and I do recommend her if you are going in for a color — especially unnatural colors. She does an excellent job and I really like the fact that she uses Manic Panic.
The rest of the salon was nice, but the parking was a bit difficult to find. You have to drive around to the alley where there is a parking area.
Prices were moderate, but wasn’t that much cheaper than if I had went to Sprout, but I’m sure I will keep going back to The Hair After.

Today was the first time I’ve ever visited The Hair After. What a fun place! The staff is really courteous and friendly! I went in for a hair coloring. Kasey, the color specialist, was friendly and energetic. She not only gave me what I had wanted, but also threw out suggestions as to what might look cool. I went with her advise and all I can say is «WOW!» I really, really love my hair. I don’t think I’ve been so happy to get my hair done, or have it done so well in a long time. The prices were very reasonable and I don’t think I’ve been to a hair salon that offers refreshments before — that was a really nice touch. I HIGHLY recommend this place (and Kasey!!) and will definitely be coming back!

LOVE this place. I have been coming to the «The Hair After» when my hair stylist, Mandi left «Sports Clips». Although «The Hair After» adds 30 minutes to my travel time it is worth every penny and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. The atmosphere is amazing. When you first walk in, you are immediately greeted by an attractive and friendly receptionist who confirms your appointment and alerts your hair stylist. There is almost no wait, but i wouldn’t care if there was because everyone is so friendly and good looking! Also, here is one of the best parts — THEY HAVE FREE CANDY, GUM and MINTS… So, I don’t eat lunch because who needs to when you can have a snickers, blow-​pop and mint for dessert.
The décor is very elegant and sexy. When they play music, I feel like I am in a high-​end lounge in Los Angeles.
They usually shampoo my hair, and the experience is out of this world as it’s more of a «massage» — Last time it lasted 20 minutes! I fell asleep in Heaven and woke up to some nice conditioner in my hairs.
My hair stylist Mandi is the best in the United States. Not Kidding. I have been all over the Country, including high-​end salons in Los Angeles that charge 5−8x the price of The Hair After, and Mandi is still better. She has that «touch» and a feel for your hair cut that will leave not only happy, but she will exceed your expectations. I have heard this from everyone I sent to her, and as well as her regular clients. She uses top quality shears, and gets them sharpened so frequently they could probably cut hair just by looking at it. She has many pairs of scissors, but my favorites are the purple ones (I think they can cut themselves). Mandi is extremely easy to talk too, and will make you laugh if you are having a bad day. I stopped going to my therapist at $ 90/​hour when Mandi clears up my blues in 40 minutes.
The owner of the Salon, Marilynne is one of the sweetest people you could ever meet. She always asks if I am happy with my hair-​cut, and even offered to bake me brownies once when she heard that was my favorite food. The brownies were pretty good! I ate them all while getting my hair cut.
I typically tip $ 20 or more because I am that happy with the service.
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

The Hair After was a wonderful surprise. Kim cut and colored my hair and she was great. She listened to my concerns and offered me her professional opinion. She didn’t cut any corners and really took the time to make sure my cut was what I wanted. They even booked me on very short notice (same day!) Everyone was very, very nice. The atmosphere was really relaxed and friendly. I live in NYC, and my cut and color was just as good as a $ 90 cut and $ 200 color – without the snobby pretentiousness, and all at an unbeatable price. Kim even wrote down what she did to my hair so when I go back to NYC my hairdresser will be able to match it. I will definitely coordinate my cuts with my visits to see my parents.
