About

Staci and Amanda founded Shear Thairapy in 2016 after working together at a local salon. The stated aim is to give clients hair they enjoy wearing, and to leave them feeling confident and well looked after. The salon is on Village Center Drive in Olney and describes its feel as casual and comforting. Bookings can be made online through its Phorest page, and walk-ins are accepted, though the salon advises booking ahead because stylists often fill up.

Stylists are grouped into levels, and pricing follows the level. The salon says those levels reflect a stylist's education and experience. Listed prices are starting points and can change. Services range from kids' and men's cuts to Signature Shear lived-in color, foil and highlight work, keratin and perm treatments, texture services and makeup for weddings and events.

Extensions are a major focus. Invisible Bead Extensions are hand-tied wefts placed with the salon's method, and the first visit includes placing, cutting and blending the pieces with natural hair. K-Tip extensions, also called keratin bond or fusion extensions, are attached strand by strand and come in three tiers. The salon also offers CombLine extensions and Hairdreams Microlines toppers for added thickness at the top or crown. Invisible bead, CombLine and Microlines work all begin with a consultation.

Beyond the chair, Shear Boutique is a lifestyle shop inside the salon and gift cards are available. Skin Beautiq is promoted as an elevated facial bar with customized treatments. Shear Education is an apprenticeship that works toward a stylist license through classroom and hands-on training, with apprentices working beside lead stylists every day. The salon describes itself as focused on education, growth and employee wellness.

The salon says it uses premium products, progressive techniques and current styles. Stylists study natural hair to choose texture and color for a result that blends in.

The salon describes its atmosphere as casual and comforting.
