I didn't even know what gray blending was before I found Denise. She has done an amazing job helping transition my hair to a state where I'm not running back to the salon every six weeks to cover the stripe of gray. We added vivids to my last visit and I couldn't be happier.

I love Moss Salon. Have been getting my haircuts here for years. It always comes out great! My favorite part about Moss is the convenience. It's super fast, plenty of parking, great location and great service. Nothing else you could ask for. Moss is great!

My neighbor recommended Denise tho she wasn't sure whether Denise cut men's hair. She does, with superb expertise and a professional touch. Her sense of humor adds to the experience.


Jan 23, 2025

Denise is great! I came to her after a disappointing color experience and she did an amazing job asking the right questions to get me back to looking like myself in no time. She always takes care to consider and discuss what is manageable for me in my day-to-day styling and maintenance when exploring enhancements to my cut. Highly recommend!


Jan 23, 2025

Denise… I love my haircut! Thank you for your professional insights, I really appreciate you. You are great at what you do and a pleasure to work with.


Jan 23, 2025

I’ve been seeing Denise for 4 years now. Not only is she a delightful human, she makes my hair look its absolute best! I highly recommend her.


Jan 23, 2025

I’ve been seeing Denise for several years for both cut and color services. My hair has a mind of its own and Denise always listens to whatever issue I’m having and offers solutions. She’s excellent at translating whatever I think I want into something that will look good on me and something I can make look good at home (this is key for me). She’s fun to talk to and I feel relaxed and refreshed when I leave the salon. Her prices seem in line with other highly skilled stylists and colorists in town. It’s a bit of a splurge for me, but one I can enjoy every day until my next appointment!

Got a wonderful haircut in a wonderful location- Denise is the best and gave me exactly what I wanted- highly recommend!!


Jan 16, 2025

Had a fabulous haircut as always! Denise does a fantastic job making sure that your cut works for you!


Jan 16, 2025

I can't recommend Denise Ficker with Moss Salon enough! She is truly amazing at what she does. Her color consultations are top-notch—she takes the time to really understand your vision and provides expert advice to achieve the perfect shade. I always leave feeling confident and absolutely loving my hair. Her attention to detail and warm personality make every visit such a pleasant experience. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about making you look and feel your best, Denise Ficker with Moss Salon is the one to see!"

She performs magic! My mother is working on growing in to her gray and she performed an absolute miracle blending such beautiful colors to make her transition seamless. She really is skilled at what she does and is SUPER thoughtful about the right plan for her clients.


Jan 06, 2025

Denise is the best. I had been going to the same stylish for years always leaving the salon disappointed with the outcome. I had been following Denise on Instagram for about 7 month and decided it was time to leave my stylish and give Denise a chance . Denise got my color right the first visit . I'm so lucky to have found Denise.


Jan 06, 2025

Since Denise has been cutting my hair, people consistently comment on how great it looks. This goes on for weeks after she works her charm! She is exceptional at tailoring her work to the very specific needs of the client. And, it’s always a pleasure chatting with her.


Jan 06, 2025

While I’m a thrifty person and always looking to save a buck. I’ve tried other hairdressers but Denise is the absolute winner. She’s a wonderful person & and even better hairdresser. She easy to communicate with and executes to perfection. Hands down the best hairdresser I’ve gone to.


Jan 06, 2025

I was lucky enough to have Denise as my stylist years ago. Unfortunately we moved out of state. When the texture/health of my hair changed drastically in the last year, I knew she’d be able to triage my tresses and suggest a course of action to get my hair back to normal. After one month of following her advice and using the shampoo/conditioner she recommended, I’m delighted to have my hair”old” hair back. I’d always loved the style and care she gave my hair and now I can say she’s a long-distance miracle worker as well!! 10/10. Highly recommend.


Jan 06, 2025

I’ve been seeing Denise for years, and I don’t trust anyone else with my hair needs. I’m very particular about my hair and she always does a detailed consultation and comes with expert ideas and suggestions. From trims to bigger chops to color - she’s the best.


Jun 06, 2024

Denise brought my hair from tired and over-bleached back to it’s beautiful natural glory! I couldn’t be happier with the results, and Denise is delightful to spend time with!


Jun 06, 2024

Denise is the best! What more can I say? Everyone knows she’s awesome. That’s why she was voted best in Wake County! She’s also super sweet and a delight to be around.


May 06, 2024

Denise is amazing. Very personable, listens to what I am thinking and she brings it to life.


May 06, 2024

Denise is the absolute best and after my last hair cut, I’ve never felt sexier in my life!! Everywhere I go I get compliments from people on my hair and I owe to Denise!


May 06, 2024

Fantastic salon and a very talented owner. Her way with kids is the best, my daughter loves Denise. She can be a reluctant 13 yr old at times, but Denise won her over in no time!


May 06, 2024

I scheduled a full foil online and provided the exact blonde I wanted and expected to leave with when I arrived to my appointment and Denise told me "that it was straight forward and would not be a problem to achieve" yet not only did I leave with my hair looking EXACTLY how it did when I walked in and far far darker than the blonde I showed her when I got there, still dark roots showing, she somehow managed to also darken the ends aswell and then to top things off charged for several other services I did not request or authorize! I reached out to Denise with my unhappiness and dissatisfication right away one I seen my hair in adequate lighting and seen how dark my hair was, and she told me "I should schedule and PAY for ANOTHER round of full foils and that I shouldn't be surprised with the underwhelming results I received because I had several inches of regrowth". I've always had several inches of regrowth as I only foil twice a year and still always left the platinum blonde I requested with my previous stylist everytime. Denise has had no concern to make things right and fix my hair to achieve the color I requested initially. I reached out AGAIN and stated this hasn't been an issue prior and I'm really unhappy and would like it fixed and received NO response back from Denise. I'm perplexed at the lack of care to make a new client happy and given the results and blonde I was told was no problem to achieve.


Apr 06, 2024

I went to see Denise to start the process of changing my box dyed hair into highlights. I am well aware this is a lengthly process and is not the easiest to be done. My hair is not the color that she told me it would be, which again I understand is just how my hair is but slightly disappointing that I was not given what I was told I'd get. My hair came out slightly brassy and where my natural color and bleached hair meet there is a harsh line. I specifically asked in the consultation if my hair would be brassy or orange and she told me no. I didn't notice this until I got in my car and could not say anything at that point. On top of all of this, I was told the amount would be no more than $425. I was charged $550 plus a tip bringing the total to $630. I was very excited for this appointment but I am very disappointed with the outcome


Feb 06, 2024

Absolutely the best. I went looking for a new hair stylist to make her part of my extended family and I found her in Denise. She colored my hair (cover gray), partial highlights, cut and dry. Amazing!! I am so lucky I find her!!


Feb 06, 2024

Denise is amazing! She is a blonding magician. I wanted to blend my dark roots (which were not really roots but over 2 in of growth really) and lighten my ends. She understood the assignment. My hair color is perfection thanks to her!


Feb 06, 2024

Denise is amazing. She is a true master of her craft. Denise is also one of people who just feel like you are coming home each visit. I can't say enough good things about her! If you are thinking about checking her out, do it!


Feb 06, 2023

A friend of mine recommended Denise and I’m so glad she did! I’ve gone to Denise several times now and I’ve loved my hair cut and root touch up every time!


Feb 06, 2023

Always a great cut with Denise. Consistently professional. Very clean and safe space.


Feb 06, 2023

Denise is a Professional hair stylist with a capital P and very sensitive to her clients’ needs. (I am so appreciative of her willingness to mask when I’m there!) She’s fearless and creative with my hair which is impressively highlighted at the moment courtesy of Moss. I enjoy our visits and look forward to her working her magic on my mane in the new year 🦁. Thanks for your services and for listening so carefully to my requests! Cheers!!


Feb 06, 2023

Denise is amazing. She always makes me feel like a super model every time I leave her salon.


Feb 06, 2023

Denise is fabulous. I have very fine hair that doesn’t do much, and I admit I’m not great at styling it myself. Denise gave me a great cut that is easy for me to do, and it looks fabulous. She updated my cut so that it has more movement and texture, yet is simple. I received so many compliments this morning after styling it myself.


Feb 06, 2023

Denise is the absolute best! In addition to being the best stylist I've found in Raleigh she's super nice and fun to talk to. Her salon is really cozy and welcoming and she goes above and beyond to make sure I'm comfortable when I'm there.


Feb 06, 2023

I started going to Denise during the pandemic when I wanted someone to take my safety seriously and I have stayed because she is so awesome. She has transformed my daughter’s hair and helped me gracefully transition to my natural color. She listens to her clients without judgement! Highly recommend!


Feb 06, 2023

I struck gold when I discovered Moss and met Denise! She is a great listener and very skilled. I really appreciate the focused attention that she provides. Denise makes the environment very relaxing — and adds small touches like eye masks and snacks. It’s a wonderful environment and the service is incredible!


Feb 06, 2023

The hairdresser Denise is very nice and cuts hair exactly the way you want it. The hair products like shampoo and conditioner work like magic! This is the best service I have ever had! Finally, Denise cares about each person and how they want their hair. She can dye hair, cut it, and wash it. I highly recommend this place!
