Pilar was amazing! I wanted a wash, blow dry, cut and color. Pilar outdid herself. She very professional and a great conversationalist. I will definitely be back.

I had the pleasure of visiting Hair Salon Pillar in Germantown on a Friday afternoon, and I cannot rave enough about my experience! I had done 3 weeks worth of research (I am an economic analyst so by training, I do so much research ) before finally booking my appointment. I don't play with texture chemical treatments and wanted the absolute best. Salon Pillar came first place in the shortlist. The owner has a holistic approach to hair care. She took the time to assess my hair type and offered great advice on how to maintain health and strength, WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. I do like relaxers and do struggle with judgements when I ask for one to hair stylists. She showed none of that. Stayed very professional, spoke about the root causes of my traction alopecia, provided guidance, also mentioned the pros and cons of relaxers etc. and options I have. I truly appreciated it. Not only was she incredibly skilled (takes care of your hair with ease), she also has a fantastic sense of humor that kept me entertained throughout my appointment, literally! I laughed so much while she worked on my hair, and it honestly felt more like a catch-up with a friend than a salon visit. She also very knowledgeable about so many things and sensitive to cultures... I left Hair Salon Pillar not just with a fabulous and sleek new haircut that perfected hid my alopecia, but also with valuable insights. It was a refreshing experience, and I felt rejuvenated both inside and out! I felt so chic, I could not go straight home. If you're looking for a hair salon that combines skill, knowledge, and a bit of fun, I highly recommend giving Hair Salon Pillar a visit. I can't wait to go back for my next appointment!

Mrs. Charmaine was very professional making my first appointment very comfortable to return in a few weeks. I finally founded a new stylist. Thank you once again.

I had an amazing experience at Salon Pilar! Pilar’s attention to detail and commitment to perfection truly set her apart. From the moment I walked in, the customer service was exceptional, and she took the time to ensure my hair turned out exactly how I wanted. I couldn’t be happier with the results! I’ll definitely be a returning customer. Highly recommend!

Fantastic salon! Everyone is warm, inviting, and incredibly talented! Would give more than five stars if I could 💗


Jan 30, 2025

Let me tell you about my experience @ Salon Pilar. My appointment was with Pilar. I got my color, highlights, & blowout done with her & boy oh boy were they done to perfection. The consultation she gave me was super detailed. Pilar gives more than great color & styling, she gives you a personalized experience like no other...

Love this place and Pilar! After moving to Philly I’ve been looking for a reliable, professional and comfortable place to get my hair done and this is just the spot!


Jan 30, 2025

Very professional, took great care of my hair and scalp! I left with a beautiful silk press:)


Jan 23, 2025

Salon Pilar!!! 10 out of 10! She was so professional and at the same time relaxing. Did I mention she really took care of my hair! I loved it! I found my hair stylist, and im so excited.


Jan 16, 2025

Had a wonderful experience at Salon Pilar! The shampoo and hair wash were relaxing, and the scalp massage was amazing. My hair feels so clean and refreshed. Pilar was friendly and attentive, and the salon had a calming vibe. Highly recommend!

Having recently relocated from Colorado, I feel incredibly fortunate to have discovered Salon Pilar! After reading several glowing recommendations, I decided to trust them with my color, and I'm absolutely thrilled with the results. Pilar spent quality time during the consultation. She really listened to what I wanted… My color is rich and dimensional. The color came out absolutely perfect – rich, dimensional, and exactly what I envisioned! What truly sets Pilar apart from my hometown stylist is attention to detail. In addition, I love the fact that Salor Pilar used Goldwell color which is one of the top rated color brands in the industry.


Jan 16, 2025

I am a new customer, and I just have to say this place Is amazing. She knew exactly what to do with my hair during the process. My hair turned out So lovely. Would definitely recommend🙌🙌


Jan 16, 2025

I found Pilar about 3 years ago. She is the best that by that has ever happened to my hair. Shine, movement, growth, & density. Pilar does my color every 3 weeks… & to top it all off she starts every work day @ 5am. I am literally outta the salon by 630am/7am. In addition, the salon atmosphere is calming and is a great location. I’m so glad I reached out.


Jan 16, 2025

I have finally found a real hair salon. This has to be the best recommendation I've ever gotten. Pilar genuinely cares about my hair and my time. My hair looks gorgeous, healthy, and beautiful. Pilar is not only a wonderful person, she is a true professional. She's someone that I can talk to and be real with. Did I mention she only uses the best products and gives the best hair advice? You're not gonna find anyone anywhere that's as good as Pilar. Stop searching and just book an appointment! You won’t be disappointed.

I’m not one to leave reviews but need to express the great experience I had at Salon Pilar. I’m at the tail end process of transitioning back to natural after a few years of getting relaxers and had been looking for a good place to my hair done in Philadelphia. I was welcomed by was a warm, friendly greeting, seated promptly and asked about my hair history (Vert impressed at that part as I feel that’s often skipped over these days). Pilar clearly has a very deep knowledge of hair care. I love love the way my hair turned out and I’m looking forward to going back to get my hair colored as well. Highly recommend this salon if you’re looking for a professional, welcoming environment and high quality service.


Jan 16, 2025

My experience at Salon Pilar was fantastic. My hair turned out perfectly for my wedding day and i couldn’t have been more happy with the results!


Jan 16, 2025

UK based but I was staying in Philadelphia for a while and WOW! I have never been on the receiving end of such great and attentive service. Best blowout & trim i’ve had to date. I’ve been back in my country for a while now and my hair still feels so healthy and looks as shiny and bouncy as ever. I will be going nowhere else for my hair the next time I’m in PA 🩷


Jan 09, 2025

Pilar is a master of her craft. I rely on her expertise and attention to detail. I don't know how she consistently hits it out of the park. This lady has skills!


Jan 09, 2025

Wish a welcoming environment. Really took care of my hair and gave me tips on how to style. Such a lovely place

After years of wigs and braids, I’m beginning a healthy hair journey. I researched plenty of salons in my area and Salon Pilar consistently received 5-star reviews, so I decided to give her a try. I’m so glad I did. Not only is she professional, she’s passionate about providing her clients with an exceptional experience. We discussed the health of my hair and ways to improve my hair health going forward. I wasn’t there all day (in and out in under 1.5 hours). The products she used are also available for purchase which is a huge plus. Overall, she exceeded my expectations and has officially gained a new repeat client.

Char is a true artist! I’ve been a loyal customer for several years now, and her expertise in color is unparalleled. Her color work is exceptional. She always nails the shade I’m looking for, and it’s always vibrant. More importantly, Char prioritizes the health of my hair, using quality products and techniques that keep it strong and looking its best. When it comes to scheduling, she’s incredibly flexible and always tries her best to fit me in. I highly recommend Char, the premiere stylist at Salon Pilar, to anyone who is looking for a top-notch stylist!


Jan 06, 2025

Charmagne is so professional ! A true cosmetologist; silk presses are amazing.


Jan 06, 2025

I love that Charmagne offers early morning appointments. If you’re looking for a stylist that cares about the health of your hair and your time, visit Salon Pilar! I will continue to recommend Salon Pilar to friends and family.

I recently drove over an hour from Delaware to visit Salon Pilar, and it was worth every second of the trip. After years of searching for a skilled and knowledgeable hair professional, I can confidently say I’ve finally found someone who exceeds all expectations. Based on glowing reviews on Google and Reddit, I decided to give this salon a try, and I am beyond impressed. The owner is meticulous and highly knowledgeable about hair health and styling. What sets her apart is her client-focused approach. She doesn’t simply style your hair and send you on your way; she educates you throughout the entire process. She explains not only what she’s doing but why she’s doing it, offering constructive advice on how to improve hair care at home. Her attention to detail and commitment to the longevity and health of your hair are unparalleled. I came in asking for a dramatic change—a short cut after years of struggling with thinning and damaged hair—and the owner delivered beyond my expectations. Unlike other salons hesitant to execute bold cuts, she listened carefully to what I wanted, asked for reference pictures, and executed a style that perfectly suited me. The result was a cut I’ve been searching for years to find, and for the first time, I left a salon feeling confident and empowered. The salon itself is as exceptional as the service. The space is beautifully designed with natural light pouring in, creating a welcoming atmosphere. You can tell that every aspect of the experience is thoughtfully curated. Saying I recommend Salon Pilar is an understatement. The owner is a rare find in this industry—a true professional who cares deeply about her craft and her clients. I look forward to many more appointments in the future, and I am even considering a color transformation, something I never thought I’d trust anyone to do before this experience.


Jan 06, 2025

If I could give 10 stars, I absolutely would! This was my first visit to the salon, and it exceeded all my expectations. The space is clean, cozy, and welcoming, making me feel at ease the moment I walked in. Charmagne is a true expert in her craft. Throughout the appointment, she generously shared her knowledge, helping me understand what my hair needed and how to maintain its health. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her clients and is committed to helping them achieve their hair goals. Her warm and friendly personality made the experience even more enjoyable & fun. I got a blowout and a much-needed haircut, and I can confidently say my hair has never looked or felt healthier. As someone with natural hair who rarely uses heat, I appreciated how carefully Charmagne protected the integrity of my hair. The results are stunning, and I’ve received so many compliments on how healthy my hair looks. I’ll definitely be returning and can’t recommend this salon enough! Salon Pilar is a gem!


Jan 06, 2025

I’ve been coming here since I was young, and this place has always been a gem. She is phenomenal with natural hair and truly amazing at coloring. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the health and beauty of your hair. Beyond that, she takes the time to care for the whole person, making every visit such a positive experience. The countless glowing reviews from others only confirm what I’ve always known: this is the best place for expert care and beautiful results!


Jan 06, 2025

Love my hair 💕 I wanted to give my hair a rest from wearing wigs so tried these clip ins instead. Pilar blended it so well with my hair. I’m so happy with the results. I can tell she really cares about the condition of your hair. She’s a legit hair care specialist!! She washed my hair, hydrated it, clipped my ends.I left feeling like a Queen. I really really love my hair. Thanks Pilar!!!


Jan 06, 2025

Lovely salon and welcoming atmosphere! I always leave the salon loving my hair and feeling beautiful!


Jan 06, 2025

My daughter & I have been going to Pilar for over 15 yrs. She is beyond talented. Her vibe is always good natured and pure. With Pilar being a colorist in New York she brings all the latest & hottest trends back to Philly for her client's to experience. I regulary get color for grey coverage & highlights. During the start of the summers, i get a keratin treatment to help control my frizz & curl. Pilar is worth every penny...


Jan 06, 2025

My hair is so healthy and shiny. I have to give thanks to Charmaine. She gave a reset and my hair looks like I’m a model. Perfect cut too. Having her doing your hair is a must.


Jan 06, 2025

Pilar is so nice and inviting! Super speedy service, great conversation! I will be back!


Jan 06, 2025

Salon Pilar affords clients the benefit of such flexible starting times! I am extremely satisfied with the way Charmagne cares for my daughter’s hair! Thank you for the outstanding work!


Jan 06, 2025

Was looking for a new place to get my hair done and was very pleased with my experience at Salon Pilar getting a hair glaze and bouncy blowout. Quality service and attention to customers! Will definitely be going back.


Jan 06, 2025

Went in for the 10 minute consultation in which Pilar assessed my hair and made the recommendation for Kertain treatment to make my hair more manageable and she also that using lower quality products was damaging my hair. She was very honest with assessment and asked me what I wanted for my own hair. Afterwards I scheduled my 1st appointment for a keratin treatment and blow dry and trim and Style. The appointment went great and my hair has so much bounce which is what I was looking for.I've already scheduled my next appointment
