The Local ~ Salon & Parlor

The Local ~ Salon & Parlor works from a suite on Jetton Road in Cornelius. Its stylists cover haircutting, coloring, blonding, balayage and men's grooming, and the salon describes its environment as friendly, welcoming and professional.

Color is one of the main offerings, ranging from quick touch-ups to full transformational work, along with highlights, balayage and lived-in looks. Color pricing is set after a free consultation of up to 15 minutes, so clients can plan with an accurate quote. Women's haircuts start at $55 and are scheduled for 45 minutes, including a shampoo, scalp massage and blow dry; curling or flat iron styling can be requested at booking and adds time. Men's haircuts start at $35 for a 30-minute visit with shampoo and scalp massage, and haircuts for children 12 and under start at $28 for a 30-minute appointment. Prices vary by stylist.

Treatments include smoothing services using Keratin Complex and Brazilian Blowout, for which the stylists are certified; these start at $375. The Brazilian Blowout Anti Aging Rewind treatment starts at $50, and hydrating or reconstructing conditioning treatments start at $25, with the specific treatment chosen alongside a stylist based on the hair's needs. Bellami hair extensions are offered in six methods, namely hand-tied wefts, volume wefts, I-tip, keratin tip, tape-in and clip-in, with pricing still to be determined. The salon says it uses high-quality products and links to a bumbleandbumble shop.

Appointments are booked through the salon's online booking page, and gift cards can be purchased online. Cancellations made at least 24 hours ahead are free; cancellations within 24 hours are charged 50% of the scheduled cost, and no-shows are charged the full scheduled cost. A credit card or deposit may be required to reserve a chemical service.

The salon describes its focus as building relationships and providing value to the community. It supports local charities and events, sponsors a local high school sports team, and hosts LoveLocal Events with local vendors. The salon states it was voted Best Hair Salon in 2024 and 2025 by Lake Norman Currents Magazine, and the site shows a 4.9 rating from 62 reviews.
