Testimonials From Our Clients

My husband and I moved to the area in 2003. Donna was recommended to us by another client, Betty Spaulding. When my father, who was living with us, passed away very unexpectedly right after we moved here, Donna graciously made time for me. My husband and I have been patrons ever since. Donna and Grant treat us more like friends than customers and are always mindful of our needs. (Not to mention that I have had total strangers stop me in stores to comment on my hair and ask who does it). We feel fortunate to have located such great folks who provide quality service.

Martha & Gleason Snow (4 Years Dedication)


"I like coming to The Salon and Day Spa because I enjoy the fellowship. The folks are friendly and make you feel at home. I love my stylist and she does great work."

Sandra Judy Osteen - Missy's client for 10 years


"I have had my hair done at a lot of salons, but Donna at The Salon and Day Spa is the best. I have had the best hair cuts, perms and color ever! They will spend the time to find a style that works for you."

Joann Day - has worked with Donna for 6 years


"I love this salon. Everyone is very friendly and the service is excellent. So glad to be here."

Ann Pace - a client with Shelby


"After living in London and San Francisco until 2000, where I always had excellent hair coloring and styling, my husband and I moved to the Cliffs Valley in South Carolina and I found Donna in nearby Hendersonville, North Carolina. Now I know that I have the best. Only last week a friend and I were having lunch when she made the statement quite out of the blue - "I don't know who does your hair color, but never change!" I love the subtle, natural looking highlights and low lights in my hair. I love the way Donna cuts and styles it. Not only that, but the salon experience is always a relaxing pleasure. I love the warmth, kindness, compassion and the welcome she always gives."

Maureen Murphy - 7 years with Donna


"Grant always welcomes me and knows my name. All the staff are nice and seem to really care about their jobs - you don't hear gossip among them. Donna is flexible for my class schedule and listens to my angel stories."

Becky Franz-Paul - an 8-10 year client with Donna


"Everyone is very friendly, always willing to help each other. Coming here is a pleasure and very relaxing. They all greet you and make you feel very special. Love them all! Donna and Grant you are doing a wonderful job."

Patsy Angel - a 3.5 year client with Terri


"I love coming here to The Salon and Day Spa. The atmosphere is very warm and the people are all friendly. Missy is my hairstylist and I am so pleased with her. She is an expert colorist and always helps me decide what haircut would look best on me. She is very professional, my experience has been wonderful."

Eleanor Muller - a 2 year client with Missy


"We have enjoyed our long relationship with Donna. She has styled our hair for so long that we are almost family and of course our hair always looks great. One of us thinks she is a hair color genius - we won't say who of course."

Irv and Janet Hendricks - 20 years working with Donna


"As women, we all have horror stories we can share about our relationship with either a particular hair salon, or with a specific stylist. My horror stories are no different from yours. We all share a commonality when it comes to taking care of ourselves physically, mentally and spiritually. As we age, our bodies go through a transition of chemical and hormonal changes that affect our entire being. Things we've taken for granted and have either abused or neglected now become problematic and beyond our scope of handling without professional help. Specifically, I'm talking about hair and my particular relationship with The Salon and Day Spa.

I came back home to North Carolina after living in California for 15 years. My illusive search for the right salon or the best stylist has taken me to some of the, purportedly, finest, trendiest, and chic establishments in Los Angeles, San Francisco and yes, even into this area of Western North Carolina. How hard can it be to find someone with an overall knowledge and the professional expertise capable of understanding me, and my specific hair care problems? Was I asking for too much? Were my requests unreasonable? I really didn't have an answer to these questions but continued my quest, which led me to the website for The Salon and Day Spa, some four years ago.

I can only speak for myself as an active women and one who really doesn't want to spend a lot of time dealing with my hair on a daily basis. What I wanted was a style and cut I could maintain easily with a minimum amount of professional assistance. What I found at The Salon and Day Spa was a group of professionals who really listened and worked with me to achieve my goals. For me, my relationship with The Salon and Day Spa has been an eye-opening experience and one I'm happy to share with you as a truly satisfied client of Missy and Terri. Both of these stylists have equal credentials, experience and each share in the common goal of achieving overall clientele satisfaction."

Suzanne Gershen - a 4 year client with Terri and Missy


"We LOVE The Salon and Day Spa, and we LOVE how we are treated as special guests on each and every visit. The Salon RIVALS any care we've received in our past life in Los Angeles. The level of expertise, whether it be a hair cut, color, pedicure (which my husband and I both indulge in), facial, or relaxing massage is by far the best and most professional level of service we have received.

We enjoy just walking in the door, having all the team greet us and welcome us like we are the first and most important client, or treating us like family - what a TREAT to have this level of service in Hendersonville!

We have recommended the salon service to all of our family and friends and will continue to do so! The Salon and Day Spa is a rare jewel ... we enjoy each and every visit! Thank you Grant and Donna for creating such a special atmosphere and assembling such a wonderful team of professionals. You have made us feel very welcomed to Hendersonville, and helped us shed the stress of our former lives in Los Angeles!"

Joseph and Joy Strassel - 2 year clients with our entire staff


"When something is your passion, you excel at it. At The Salon and Day Spa, making you look your best is their passion. What they do is truly an art. I was thrilled to finally find someone that took the time to really listen to my wants and needs. It just may be the best salon experience you'll ever have."

Julie Stoyka - a 2.5 year client with Donna


"I enjoy all my visits to The Salon because of the friendly and welcoming atmosphere and excellent services. I have had hair styling, body waves, hair coloring, facials, manicures and pedicures and always feel better afterward. I appreciate the available products and enjoy using them at home."

Sarah Strobel - a 2 year client with our entire staff


"Until 4 years ago, I never knew there was a place I could go to forget all my worries and cares just for a little while. But that was until I visited The Salon and Day Spa. The massages by Karen and facials by Jessie were the best things I could've done for myself. I appreciate my husband even more when he surprises me with a gift certificate because he knows how much I enjoy and need them. I highly recommend The Salon and Day Spa to anyone, especially if you've never experience pure peacefulness and just time for yourself - if only for just a short while, it's worth taking the time from your busy schedule."

Pam Gash - a 4 year client with our entire staff


"My wife, daughter and myself receive multiple services at The Salon and Day Spa. Our services are provided on time by a very professional and personable staff. We highly recommend all of the salon services at The Salon and Day Spa. We look forward to each and every visit and we feel we are not onlycustomers, but friends."

Jeff and Carol Briggs - 4 year clients with Karen, Nicole, and Shelby


"During my search in 1996 for a hairdresser who wouldn't cut my hair too short, I was fortunate enough to find Donna James. From the beginning, I was impressed with Donna's knowledge and desire to please her clients. Her expertise with color is amazing. She has kept me looking good for 10 years and is as concerned today about my satisfaction with her work as she was in the beginning."

Julia Ball - a 10 year client with Donna


"Donna has been styling my hair for 19 years, but I've learned that I always have to schedule my next appointment when leaving the salon. When I want to change my hair, she listens as a stylist, and as a friend. Sometimes ... she offers advice and I listen."

Kathy Jerva - a 19 year client of Donna
