Whip Salon

Whip Salon runs seven salons: five in Connecticut, in Avon, Sandy Hook (Newtown), Ridgefield, South Windsor and Wilton, and two in South Carolina, in Bluffton and on Hilton Head Island. Every location offers cuts, color, blowouts and styling, while specialty services differ from one salon to the next. The company describes each salon as a neighborhood business that is part of the community around it.

Each visit begins with a consultation, where the stylist plans the service around the client's hair and daily routine. Pricing depends on the salon and the stylist's level, and the stylist goes over the plan and price with the client before the service starts. Clients can book online or by phone, and anyone who needs to change plans is asked to give notice so another time can be arranged.

The salon says it has been named a top-200 salon in the U.S. every year from 2019 through 2026, and reports a 4.9 average rating from more than 2,400 Google reviews. Bridal hair and makeup are offered in the salon or on site through flexible packages at all seven locations. Bridal pricing and availability are handled by a Bridal Coordinator after an inquiry form is submitted, with a follow-up said to come within a week.

Every visit starts with a consultation so the service can be planned around the client's hair and routine, with pricing confirmed before work begins.

The salon describes its locations as neighborhood salons, each rooted in its own town.
