And whether you’re visiting the Queen City for a vacation, a Stephen King tour, or perhaps are considering relocating to the Bangor area, it’s always good to know your available options for consumer services.
Being the third-largest city in the state means folks come from all over the northern, eastern, and central portions of Maine for many of their day-to-day needs—like getting a haircut, for example.
As evidenced in the list below, if you’re in Bangor, there’s no need to travel far if you need a stylish new look.
Map of Bangor Hair Salons
Looking for a hair salon near you? Want to get a coffee before your trim? This map of the Bangor hair salons in this article will make finding your new favorite salon a breeze:
Déjà Vu Salon
Many salons are transitioning to individual stylist booth/chair rentals (independent contractors, each with their own pricing); Déjà Vu is one of these establishments.
In addition to offering a full line of hair services (color, perms, styling, cuts, updos), Déjà Vu also has waxing, tanning, manicures, pedicures, and more for men, women, and kids.
Specialties include fun and funky cuts and dye jobs (think undercuts, rainbow, neon, and stripes); folks that have been coming here for years now bring in their own children.
Location: 849 Stillwater Ave #2, Bangor, ME 04401

The Noble Root Salon
An Aveda salon, The Noble Root’s stylists work on a tiered system, one in which each person’s pricing is based on experience.
The stylists at Noble Root are all about hair—and they do it well here; the service menu includes cutting, styling, deep hair conditioning treatments and masques, extensions, lightening, and coloring—all using Aveda’s top-quality products, of course, including their 96% naturally-derived, full-spectrum hair color.
If you’ve never been to the Noble Root Salon, be aware you’ll probably have to be patient to get an appointment; this is a popular spot. Also notable: Kids under 12 aren’t permitted unless they have an appointment for service.

Salon 241
This gorgeous, full-service salon is housed in a grand, mid-1800s Victorian home and welcomes folks of all ages. The owner has over four decades of experience, and opened Salon 241 in 2003; here, you can directly book with your stylist of choice—or try for a walk-in appointment, which is also welcomed.
Hair services include cuts, color, styling, perms, and updos; a full array of waxing, nail, and makeup treatments are also on offer at Salon 241.

Bangor Hair Company
This is another salon that permits customers to make hair appointments directly through their chosen stylist rather than a receptionist—a time-saver for everyone involved. Almost all of the services here are hair-centric, although there are lash extensions, as well.
Cuts, colors, and updos are all on offer here for reasonable rates; wedding parties are a salon specialty. Pro tip: If you’re interested in booking the Bangor Hair team for your big day, do it as early as possible—wedding seasons book up very quickly.

Headlines
This is another shop where all of the stylists rent their space within the salon—which means the prices and schedules will differ from chair to chair, so to speak. This is a bonus for you as a customer because you’ll be dealing directly with your chosen stylist when booking your appointments.
The salon is bright, spacious, and chic, and while the service options differ from stylist to stylist, you can peruse their specialties on the Headlines website to see which person would be the best fit for your hair needs. There is also a nail technician on site as well as an aesthetician for makeup services.

Shear Attraction Salon
Shear Attraction is a full-service salon that accepts walk-ins when possible—but it is recommended that you make an appointment, to be sure you get the best stylist for your needs.
Prices for services here are very reasonable—less than most other salons in the area—and the offerings include men’s and women’s cuts, styling, perms, color, foils, and keratin treatments. Waxing services are also available, and wedding party packages—at the salon or on location—are also on offer.

Anthony John’s
This establishment is a full-service, luxurious day spa in addition to being a top-notch hair salon, so you can pamper yourself from head to toe all in one go if you so desire.
The hair salon offerings include cuts, styling, coloring, straightening, deep conditioning, keratin treatments, and extensions for all ages (including toddlers). The spa’s menu includes luxe options like manicures, pedicures, massages, lash/brow treatments, waxing, and facials.

It’s All About You
This business is aptly-named; in addition to the full-service hair salon, there is a whole host of indulgent, all-about-you services on offer here.
So, not only can you get your hair professionally cut, styled, permed, straightened, colored, or highlighted, but you can also take advantage of the clinical skincare, nail, airbrush tanning, and massage services here at It’s All About You. Be sure to make an appointment, though—walk-ins are not accepted here.

Shear Haven
When you focus on one thing and one thing only, you’re bound to be good at it. Shear Haven is strictly a hair studio—no nail services, no tanning, no massages—which is why they are so popular.
They’re darn good at what they do because it’s ALL they do. Cuts, color, styling, ombre, balayage, and more are available at Shear Haven, which was voted Bangor’s Best of the Best last year, just one year after opening.

Primrose Beauty
After opening their doors in early 2021, Primrose has become one of Bangor’s most popular new hair salons and day spas. Offering a full range of hair services—and specializing in fun, bright colors in all configurations to express your inner rainbow—Primrose Beauty also has an in-house nail technician…and her spa pedicures are not to be missed.

Lotus Salon & Spa
Lotus Salon is yet another establishment on this list that is both a spa and salon…but it’s the only one that offers wine to its clients while they are being pampered with the high-end services on offer here.
The cut, color, and styling options offered here are top-notch, and prices are competitive with surrounding shops. You can also get lash and waxing treatments as well as a host of professional skincare and massage services.
