Serving the Triangle from West Cary

Artisan Hair Cary is located at 5039 Arco Street in Alston Town Center, right off Highway 540 and 55. Clients come from across the Raleigh-Durham Triangle for color, cuts, and styling they cannot find closer to home.

From Apex, the drive is 10 minutes down Highway 55. From Raleigh, most clients take 540 and are here in 15 minutes. Morrisville and Holly Springs are both under 15 minutes. Even clients from Durham, Chapel Hill, Fuquay-Varina, and Garner make the trip because the quality of work and the salon experience are worth it.

Whether you are looking for a balayage specialist, a colorist who can handle a full correction, a stylist trained in hand-tied extensions, or just a precise haircut from someone who studied under Sassoon and Arrojo, this is the salon people drive to. Not the salon they settle for.

Open Tuesday through Thursday 9:30am to 8:00pm, Friday 9:30am to 5:00pm, and Saturday 9:30am to 4:00pm. Walk-ins are welcome when availability allows, but we recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred stylist. Free 15-minute consultations are available for new clients and anyone considering a major change.

  • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    "I have seen Lyla at Artisan multiple times now, and I will never go to anyone else! After years of boxed dye when I was younger and years of a full head of bleach, I am super picky about who touches my hair. This fall I decided to go a little darker than normal for blending and dimension. Of course, my girl did not disappoint!"
