How we rank hair salons in Durham

Each business is scored on signals we can verify from public data: a live, secure (HTTPS) website, mobile-friendliness, a published phone number and website, and fit with the hair salons category. We do not collect or display customer reviews, and we do not accept payment for placement. Businesses can claim their listing to correct contact details, but the rank is fixed by the data. Owners can claim a listing for a Verified badge and a direct link; sponsors appear only in labeled blocks outside the numbered list. Neither changes rank.

Each listing is scored on public signals we can check ourselves: whether the website is live and secure (HTTPS), whether it works on a phone, whether a phone number and website are published, and how closely the business matches the hair salons category. We do not collect customer reviews, so no star ratings or review counts appear here, and no business pays for placement.

What to look for when choosing a hair salon in Durham

  • Walk-ins or appointments. Ask whether they take walk-ins, how far out appointments book, and whether you can request the same stylist each time.
  • Pricing up front. Color and treatments vary a lot by length and condition. Ask for a price range for what you want before you sit down, not after.
  • The stylist's work, not the shop's sign. Ask to see recent work from the person who would do yours, especially for color or a big change.
