Kerri Leary Designs

I've been going to Kerri for years now and consistently get compliments on my hair style! She takes the time to listen to you and understands how you treat your hair. Then she gives you a great cut and style that you can actually re-create after you leave! So often, you walk out of a salon feeling fantastic about your new look, but you can never get it CLOSE to what the stylist did. Not the case with Kerri. She's fun, you look great and she's very reasonably priced. Enjoy your new style and time with Kerri!

Kerri is so personable and makes you right at home the minute you meet her. She is on the cutting edge of hair color and fashion. I love the location too. The private rooms at All In Good Co. are so cute!

I have okay hair, but no styling stills and even less patience. I can’t even put it in a pony tail and I refuse to wake up earlier to blow dry it when I can just roll down the windows in my car on the way to work. In short, I am a nightmare for most stylists, but Kerri accepts my limitations. She consistently comes up with cute styles that involve little to no maintenance, yet look amazing. And she’s great company. No one wants to sit in a chair for an hour without decent conversation, with Kerri that is never an issue. She has a very outgoing personality and is a lot of fun to be around. Great hair, great company, what more could a girl want?

I found Kerri a little over 2 years ago through CitiSearch, when I first moved to Charlotte. After the first appointment, I knew my search was over. Kerri is a wonderful stylist and an amazing person. Her attention to detail is impeccable. She's always learning the most up-to-date techniques, and keeping her skills and knowledge fresh. She sells products she believes in. She really wants you to be happy with your hair too. I have a tendency to get bored, so she's always mixing things up, within the realm of what she knows I'll be comfortable with. I continually get compliments on my hair, and it's all due to Kerri. I highly recommend her!

Kerri is an outstanding hair stylist who is professional and courteous. She takes her profession seriously. I have been to other stylists in the past who would talk on their cell phones the whole time and not pay attention to what they were doing. Quite annoying and rude! The last thing I need is someone who is distracted while cutting my hair! Not so, with Kerri. She pays attention to detail and makes sure you are 100% happy with your hair before you leave the salon.

Kerri has a very pleasant personality and she knows what she is doing. I loved the way she colored, cut and even styled my hair. I usually have to rush right home after visting a stylist because they always give me some weird styling job. Not Kerri! I walked out of her salon with Fabulous Hair!

I found Kerri by tagging along one day with a friend of mine who already had been using Kerri for her hair serivices. I had always noticed her hair was amazing! I volunteered for Kerris hair make overs (first string) and really got to test out her skills. I loved it! She has an amazing ability to look at you and put a great style or color on you. Her cuts are done with such precision it never dissapoints me. I have reccomended Kerri to many of my friends who now go to her as well. I am very picky about my hair and was able to trust a complete stranger to do whatever she wanted with my hair and it still came out even more amazing then I had thought. She surley is one of the best around! You wont be dissapointed! On top of the great service the salon is very clean and comfortable. Kerri always has drinks and snacks to treat her customers with all the kindness she can! Try her out if you havnt!

I recently moved here and was lucky enough to get it right the first time finding Kerry. (actually thru this website). So I wanted to pass on my wonderful experience if anyone was in the same boat in search of a great hairdresser. Kerry is awesome. She perfected my blonde color. Looks great! She found a shade that fits my skin tone and me. I love it and love her. I highly recommend her. You will not be disappointed.

I've been going to Kerri for a few years and have never had healthier hair or a better color. Most of my past colors were "too blond" for me and Kerri changed all that!

I was so happy to find Kerri after moving to Charlotte about a year ago. I have long, thick hair and get blonde highlights. She always does a great job and I've been happy every time. She also makes sure to schedule enough time to do my hair - it's so nice not to feel rushed out! The salon is adorable and Kerri is so easy to talk to. Love going to her...

I'm a producer for a commercial photographer and I am always jealous of models and their luxury of having a professional stylist to make them look beautiful. So when I saw Kerri's ad in Skirt magazine, I completely connected to it because I am truly someone who 'covets beautiful hair' and since going to Kerri... I hear nothing but compliments! It's easy to style and the color is truly amazing. Now I look like I have a professional stylist daily, too! I love feeling good about myself when my hair looks great. Kerri is so much fun and I love her! I send everyone I know to her and will never go anywhere else! I just wish I could see her more often!

I have never been this happy with my hair, I didn?t even know it could look this amazing. Everyone at works jaws dropped because I went from long light brown blahhh hair to a blonde bob that cups at my chin?I can?t believe how cute it is. Even though I was SCARED to death because she took so much hair out (I have very thick hair) She used a bunch of different colors to hi-lite and it looks so amazing and so natural that I can?t even believe how perfect it looks. The salon is also very cute and I love having a private room and not being surrounded by people and feeling rushed. I could not be happier with a salon or a stylist. I am telling all my friends, because it?s not only better but cheaper than my last salon.

Hi all. I moved down here 5 months ago from the NYC Metro area & have been looking for a place to get my hair done ever since. Went to Hair Color Xperts (they weren't), went to Carmen Carmen (University) and won't go back but at least I had my hair back to being one color, but come on now, this is Charlotte, not Manhattan & charging $225 for a missed appointment - can we say pretentious??!! Finally after reading the reviews here, I called & got an appointment with Kerri & then started hoping..I went today & loved the atmosphere - being in a house there was great lighting and it just felt comfortable. Kerri was warm, friendly and made me feel like I had known her for a long time. She really put thought into what I wanted & what would be good for me AND my hair. I LOVE my new do. My color is a beautiful red, the highlights are fantastic and I couldn't be happier with my cut!!! Coming from getting my hair done in Manhattan to Charlotte was disappointing UNTIL NOW. As someone who ... Read more

I have been seeing Kerri for 2 and a half years and I wouldn?t trust anyone else with my hair. I have very thick hair and she is the queen of removing bulk. She listens, keeps up on current trends, and is very professional. She has literally improved the look and feel of my hair. She also does my hilites and I get compliments all the time that I have beautiful blonde hair. I have had stylists do blonde wrong before, always too gold or stripy, not the case with Kerri. It looks natural, healthy and pretty. I always feel great when I leave the salon because she gets my hair smoother than I ever could at home, even though I have gotten better at styling since she has taught me how to style it. I also see Debbie for facials here and she is wonderful. She does a free eyebrow wax with a facial and is very good at clearing up blemishes and removing dead skin. My skin looks much clearer and healthier. The staff is friendly and the salon is very homey and unlike most of the chain salons ... Read more

This salon is a breath of fresh air. I just want to say how happy I am to have found such a charming and personal place to spend my time in. It?s a totally different experience than any other salon in Charlotte I have been to. It?s a very personal and intimate place and I felt really at home. It was also refreshing to have someone pay 100% attention to me the entire time I was there. And because I was actually listened to, I got the best cut and color I ever had. Everyone I met was genuinely nice and unpretentious. I am going back next week for a massage and facial which I am really looking forward to.

Choosing a good hairstylist to me is like choosing a good man...the first date is always good because they are on their best behavior but after a while they start to slip and you think, "What happened?" If it's the man, you walk out feeling dissapointed and if it's the stylist you walk out feeling like Dorothy Hamill! Not with Kerri...This lady is consistant, precise, she listens and is absolutely a delight to talk to. I have been going to her for a few months and I am proud to say that I am now in a committed relationship with her. No longer am I "shopping for stylists in Charlotte". THANK YOU Kerri. I love every cut you give me. It is always chic and always what I have pictured in mind when I come in that day. I get compliments all over the place on my hair and how well it compliments my face...and THAT is what a GREAT stylist does.

I have been through several stylists since I moved here from New York 4 years ago. I used to go to a well-known stylist at Frederick Fekkai Salon in Manhattan?don?t mean to sound pretentious. You get what you pay for and hair is usually over priced. Kerri is a breath of fresh air with enthusiasm, a great laugh and southern prices. I love my color and hip, long layers and she always gives me free bangs trims in between cuts?truly a class act in a little chic salon. She?s great with eyebrows, too! Just make sure you are not in a hurry; she?s meticulous about her work, and with no assistant sometimes it can take a little more time. Oh, and now my mother drives in from Raleigh just to go to Kerri, too.

Kerri is wonderful!! I LOVE my hair and always love my hair when I walk out of the salon. I have been a client for 2 years now and I have always had nothing but great experiences with Kerri. Kerri always takes time to discuss various hair color and/or style options with me and helps me to create my own individual unique style. Her personality is fabulous and she always makes me feel like I am her only client because she is so attentive, genuine, and sincere. I always either laugh or smile during my visit. Not only do I feel like I am getting my hair done, but I feel like I am spending time with a close friend. She is great. She also cuts my two daughters' hair. We all know how picky mothers can be, but I trust Kerri implicitly with their hair. They love her! They feel like little princesses everytime they go see her. Most children can be a little intimidated by salons, but Kerri immediately put them at ease. There have been times when I am getting other services done while they are get... Read more

Kerri always listens to what you want to do, and provides professional advice to help you achieve your goals. She's always upbeat and fun, which makes any visit a pleasant process. She is always up on the latest techniques, styles, and color ideas. I love going to her.

I love this salon. It is super cute and warm and the people are friendly. Kerri is so funny and enthusiastic about her job that I think she was more excited than I was about getting my hair done. I took 10 inches off for locks of love and I was scared to death. She gave me a glass of wine to calm my nerves and really took her time with consulting me and making sure I was ready for such a big change. I brought in some pictures and she nailed it. Officially, I look like a woman instead of a kid (at 26) and its very Katie Holmes cute, without sounding too trendy...and I have gotten so many compliments...I love it!

I dont think its just a coincidence that the previous two entries are pretty much the same yet supposedly written by two different people! I went to this salon based on the reviews on here and unfortunately they were very wrong. I have a very simple hair cut and she managed to butcher it....she ended up doing what she wanted instead of what i had asked for. On top of that she charges to flat iron hair yet doesn't properly do it so i paid for a service i had to go home and fix myself. She is a very sweet lady but not great with hair apparantly. Go at your own risk!

Since I moved to Charlotte last year I have been a salon junky, hopping from salon to salon checking people out, if even for a blowout on a Friday night. I wanted to find someone who I not only liked, but someone who could give me hair that I love?Hollar!!!!!! I work at CMC in Dilworth and one of the nurses on my floor, with a sharp little hairdo, told me about Kerri who conveniently worked around the corner from the hospital, and two great haircuts, and an amazing color makeover after, I am hooked and am done hopping around. This salon cute, comfortable, serves wine, the stylists have their own rooms so it?s private and you can have a private conversation, which is nice because I am a talker, and want a stylist I can confide in and chat with and get to know?Not only is Kerri wonderful to chat with, but she knows her stuff and really understood how to get life back into my dead (previously yellow dry hair)?I also have to add that I got a pumkin facial form Debbie, who also works ther...

Get magnificent hair color and advanced precision hair cuts from this ever-evolving stylist in the Charlotte area.

I have been seeing Kerri for 3 years now and I trust her entirely. She listens, and genuinely seems to care for her clients. I enjoy my time in her chair and I would follow her anywhere. Overall, I keep to the same style, a clean lined elevated swing bob, (according to her). I love my honey and caramel color, and even though I don?t make any drastic changes to my style, there is a lot to be said for consistency?and in my job I need to be taken seriously and consistency is important? The level of service I get with Kerri is always the same?excellent. I think she is a perfectionist. And I thank her for that.

Great salon! I like it much better than the big chains who charge too much and give everyone the same haircut.... I have thick hair that is hard to style and kerrie does a great job thinning it out so it is managable. I have reccomended her to a few of my friends and everyone has been happy.

Before I even get into how much I love my hair, let me tell you how cute the salon is. First the street is so cute and there are salons everywhere...and on the inside is the cutest house turned into a salon. Kerri has her own room that I love, I want to move in. It has huge windows and a great view . I was so comfortable there and my hair has never looked better. My hair hasn't bounced in years and apparently it was the totally wrong color...now its honey and blonde and moves beautifully. I just want to shake my hair. And my hubby loves it. I highly recommend it.

You would never believe I wasn't a natural blonde but thats what I pay for...true perfection. Kerri uses three diffrent blondes and takes her time making it flawlessly natural...The salon is adorable, an charming old house in Dilworth converted into a salon, the stylists have their own rooms so it is private and I like having her complete attention. I used to see someone who had two assistants and three clients at a time and it was impersonable and I began to wonder what I was paying for????? I like having my stylists full attention...for $120+ every 8 weeks, I deserve it!!!!! I really love Kerri, how she does my hair and all the compliments I get. Highly recommended!!!
