AURA Color Lounge

Amanda is SO talented! Every time I sit in her chair I feel like I’m catching up with one of my best girlfriends. She’s so warm and welcoming! I trust her to snatch my hair every visit. Ive been a client of hers for 5 years and I’ve never left disappointed. She is such a hard and dedicated worker to all her clients and really dose go above and beyond.

New to Asheville and needed to find a new stylist which is always stressful. Tried a few places and decided to consult with Amanda who was recommended on a local group. She turned out to be amazing. She made some new suggestions and my hair looks the best it has in years. She knows exactly what I need the minute I walk into the salon. I really like she has her own studio to herself. She's very nice, fun and creative. So happy to be a client.

Amanda did a flawless job on my partial foil, cut, and style. She's also amazing to talk with and enjoys a lively debate. The Lounge is her private salon so you're not mixing it up at the shampoo station or hearing other stylists' chatter. And because she has online booking, the whole experience of getting your hair done is a pleasure.

Amanda is amazing. My hair is beautiful and she is wonderful about giving me ideas about what will work with my hair, my face and how much time I want to spend fixing it. She is always willing to go above and beyond to help me feel good about myself and my hair. She has been my stylist several years and I am thankful I found her!

Amanda was amazing! She took care to understand my goals and made a plan with me for how to achieve them. She was super sweet with absolutely no judgement on the mess my hair had become which I have experienced at other hair salons. She also gave me a practical time line on how to achieve what I wanted with my hair to keep it the healthiest, which I really value. She was completely honest with me instead of giving false hope and I thanked her so much for that. I drove from Knoxville to Asheville to go to her and it was well worth the trip! Not to mention she gave me a sample of the shampoo and conditioner she used on me so I could try it again at home. It’s the little things, Amanda is absolutely amazing as a hair stylist!

Amanda is the absolute BEST!

I found Amanda after having my hair over processed at another salon and was immediately impressed with her professionalism and the time she took to throughly educate me and come up with game plan to get my damaged hair healthy again! Every step of the process Amanda’s communication put me at ease, now I have my healthy hair back thanks to her and I couldn’t be more grateful!

Amanda has seriously worked magic on my hair. I go in with an idea that I don't always know how to put into words and she somehow deciphers it and turns it into something incredible. I've been with her for a few years and I truly love my hair! Besides her magician-like hair skills, she's funny and easy to talk to. There's no awkward, forced conversation like I've experienced with some stylists in the past.

I have been going to Mandy since I was 16. She started off at JC Penney’s salon until she got her own by being the best one there by far. I won't let ANYONE touch my hair but her. Not only do I love my hair but I always get so many compliments, and end up referring people to her. You are missing out if you ain’t having her do your hair. She always make sure you love it before you leave her chair.

We just moved to the area and I found Amanda on Instagram. She is so sweet and absolutely love how she did my hair. I will only be going to her from now on! Not to mention her studio is so clean and nicely made! Highly recommend her!

An amazing colorist! I am so glad I found Amanda when I moved here. After seeing the transformation from quarantine hair to fabulous highlights hair, my friends in Illinois want to take a trip down here and make an appointment! I have never gotten more compliments. Thanks Amanda!

Mandy always comes in with a positive attitude and enjoys your company. I’ve been going to her for about 8 years and she’s always done a fantastic job, from helping, to rescuing a bad hair do, and even just a simple color. She’s got you. I appreciate her a lot.

Two years I have been going to Amanda. Past hair stylist treat me as I’m a burden with my hair....thick. I have never received a haircut or coloring that my hair wasn’t complimented on!!!! Excellent and doesn’t rush through to the next appointment. I started taken my son this past week for his haircuts and he (teenager 15) walked out and said “ this is the haircut I have always wanted and nobody could figure it out.” When he had his doctor appointment a few days later you could hear the nurse and doctor talking about his new haircut and how handsome he looked! He has some medical problems and she made him feel comfortable... he doesn’t like change. It really should be 10 stars !!!!

Amanda is the best! I love my hair, I have received so many compliments since she colored it. I can’t wait to go back and continue with her! Thank you ❤

Mandy is the best!! Her business is very covid-safe, she is super sweet and always does such an amazing job with my hair! Can't recommend her enough :)

A joy each time I go in. Mandy does wonders with my hair. I feel like I am walking lighter when I leave! I love the conversations and fun we have while there too! I highly recommend this salon.
