The Top 5 Hair Salons In Newtown, According to Yelp

Where are the best places to get your hair cut in the local area?

This isn't just about the cut. The barber shop and hair salon has always been an unofficial town square, where locals can hang out and shoot the breeze, debate issues, and smack talk to their hearts content. So when you think about which shop in town gives you all that and a great line, who comes to mind? Do you have a hidden gem your friends don't know about?

The list below was curated by reviewers on Yelp. If we missed your favorite, let us know in the comments below.

1. David J Witchell, 25 S State St.

A reviewer says: "I have been getting my twice yearly haircut at David Witchell for 15 years. Even now that my life has taken me to Brooklyn, I still make a point to make appointments here because it feels like home."

2. Nicole Carmans Hair Design, 126 S State St.

A reviewer says: "My daughter and I have been going to Nicole for a few years now. Nicole is not only a talented hairstylist, but a kind and patient person. She does an equally amazing job executing my daughter's trendy hair color as well as my classic cut & color."

A reviewer says: "I've been a NAC member for many years and this was the first time I used the spa. It was a great experience!"

5. Studio 35 Salon, 35 S State St

A reviewer says: "I can't say enough about this little salon. From the second I walked in, it was such a warm and welcoming feeling. They were extremely personable, talked to you, treated you as a customer should be treated in every way possible."
