About

Pangaea Salon opened in 2013 and takes its name from Pangaea, the supercontinent in which the world's landmasses were once joined. The salon is built on a belief in unity and belonging, and it describes itself as a welcoming, community-focused place. Owner Carol Marshall opened it after running a small salon out of her home.

The curly and textured cuts are a major part of the salon's work. Stylists shape each cut around the client's curl pattern, density, length and lifestyle, and they are trained to work with curl patterns from 2A to 4C. For most curly clients, stylists recommend a curly cut every 8 to 12 weeks. The salon describes itself as a top Denver salon for curly cuts and color, a claim it makes about itself.

A visit for a curly or textured cut starts with a consultation, followed by the cut, a wash and hydration step, curl-enhancing styling, and guidance on home care. Color work follows a similar path: a consultation, a color formula, application, toning and finishing, and home care advice. Pricing for color is reviewed during the consultation before any service begins. Clients are asked to arrive with clean, dry hair in its natural curl pattern, without blowouts, buns or stretched styles. Clients who are unsure what to book, or who are planning a big color change, can book a consultation or send a message for a stylist recommendation. An online quiz also helps match a hair type to a service. Appointments are booked through the salon's Phorest page, and gift cards are available.

Built on skill, inclusivity and an education-first outlook, with stylists educated across all hair textures and continued education built into the team's work.

The salon describes itself as welcoming and community-focused.
