About

Whirligig is a single chair salon at 729 S. 4th St. rear in Queen Village, Philadelphia. The entrance is on Pemberton. Each appointment is with one client at a time, and services are booked in advance rather than as walk-ins.

Haircuts are offered for adults and children. Color options run from glazes and single or double process color to highlights and balayage. Moisture and protein treatments are also available. For color, the salon uses the OriginalMineral CØR Color line, which it states contains no ammonia, PPD or resorcinol.

Appointments can be made by text or phone at (215) 490-9828, or through the contact form on the appointments page. Cancellations need 24 hours notice to avoid a charge; later cancellations are charged 50% of the scheduled service. Hours are Wednesday and Thursday 9am to 7pm, Friday 9am to 6pm, and Saturday 10am to 5pm. Gift cards are available, and Neuma and Max Green Alchemy products are sold in the shop.

The salon selects products from companies it says are committed to safe, healthy and environmentally friendly formulas. It describes its products as the healthiest and highest quality available, and says they give superb results.

The space is a compact, private room set on a calm side street in the Queen Village area.
