The Black Pearl of Durham Salon

AMAZING SERVICE. PHENOMENAL WOMAN. BEAUTIFUL SOUL.!!!!! Ms. Tina is the best of the best . I had a few weeks to go before my wedding and I was very very stressed about my wedding hair look. I found The Black Pearl Durham after reviewing options and God blessed me with everything I needed. She was kind ,listened, effective, and prompt communication. I sent her photos of what I envisioned and she created the perfect look for me. I did a trial and was soooo happy with the outcome!!! On my wedding day she went above and beyond. We had prepped my hair the night before...adding the extensions ..washing..color etc. On wedding day we styled and got me ready in no time. She locked down my bridesmaids looks and even touched up a few who had hair done prior to flying in. Mannnnnn everyone looked

I was looking for a last minute style for my birthday. I contacted Katina and she responded within the hour. She had availability in the week and sent a very thorough communication about how to send a deposit to secure my appointment. She then requested pictures to get an idea of how to style my hair to my liking. On the day of service she was very friendly and personable. Her salon space was clean and intimate with no wait time. Katina was extremely knowledgeable and professional and even gave me tips on how to maintain my style as well as hair and scalp care. I will definitely be booking with her again.

Love the natural style Katina gives me. This will be my third time going to her shop within a two month period. I called her right before Labor Day for a second visit, with short notice, for my family reunion. She was booked but managed to work me in. I’m so thankful I found her. I am a “reviewer” and the feedbacks she received online from her previous clients were amazing! My husband and family members love my new style. I look forward to scheduling an appointment for my niece’s wedding reception. She deserves more than 5 stars. Her salon is well-kept and allows enough time in between so that her clients are not kept in waiting.

The best hair salon and hairstylist in Durham, North Carolina! Ms. Katina went above and beyond in explaining every step of the process to me and how I should properly care for my hair. I had a virgin perm done, along with washing, drying, deep conditioning, trimming my ends, and straightening. When she finished, my hair felt incredibly healthy, full of volume, and noticeably longer. I also purchased her hair products — the shampoo, conditioner, deep conditioner, and styling foam — and I am so glad I did. She not only makes you feel comfortable during your appointment but also truly educates you about maintaining the health of your hair. Ms. Katina is one of the best hairstylists I have ever met. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for professional, caring, and knowledgeable hair

Ms. Tina was very knowledgeable and kind. She gave me tips to keep my hair healthy & retain length. And although I had a good amount of damage, Ms Tina preserved a lot of my healthy length. She also maintained COVID-safe practices, which made me feel safe. I will absolutely be returning to Ms Tina.
