Award-Winning Hair Salon in Madison, Wisconsin

Not Your Average Salon: It’s All About the Brand!

When you’re looking for any kind of luxury service or product, there is often a higher-than-usual price tag that goes along with it. Take for example Starbucks Coffee: their prices tend to be more than most coffee shops, but there’s a reason behind this. Part of what you’re paying for is a brand that promises quality of their product and care of their employees. Starbucks offers multiple benefits for their baristas including competitive pay and benefits as well as paid schooling for certain programs.

Be Inspired Salon is like Starbucks in this way! Your investment with us might be higher than the average salon, but we promise it’s worth it. Here’s why:

We’re an award-winning salon with high-end services.

All of our stylists are specially trained in the DevaCut, a form of dry cut for clients with curly hair. These services take a little bit longer but are so worth it if you have waves or curls! This cut is performed dry to reduce damage on hair and provide the best results for natural hairstyling. To give you the best value and for a look that stays on point, we offer complimentary “tweener” haircuts so you look fresh between appointments! For straight hair, you’re always going to get an amazing outcome because our stylists are experienced in a variety of techniques. We carry the DevaCurl line that pairs perfectly with our DevaCut as well as Surface which is vegan, gluten-free, paraben-free, and plant-based. We also carry KMS, a styling line with influences from across the world.

We’ve also won several awards for our bridal styling and makeup from magazines like Wisconsin Bride and The Knot! For bridal makeup, we use Youngblood Mineral Cosmetics, a line that excludes common irritants but still lasts long for your special day.

We go above and beyond expectations.

At Be Inspired, we greet you at the door with a smile. We have complimentary coat checking and beverages, and we even offer wine, bourbon, or beer – on the house! Sit back, relax, and put your feet up as a stylist shampoos your hair in one of our special reclining chairs. We provide aromatherapy and hand massages for our women’s cuts and hot towels for our men’s cuts as well. We’re selective in who we hire – our stylists are always willing to listen, provide friendly conversation, and get you the best possible outcome with your hair. Be Inspired’s brand of hospitality is one of a kind!

We provide monthly advanced education for stylists.

Every month, we offer in-salon training for our stylists so we’re always up-to-date with our techniques and services. This is a huge benefit for both the stylist and the client, as many salons don’t offer training quite as often.

We provide full benefits for our hardworking team.

We take care of our employees the right way so they can take care of you! Our stylists receive full health insurance benefits as well as a retirement plan option that matches a percent of what they put away. We also provide a generous allowance for time off and loyalty opportunities so that long-time stylists can create a more flexible schedule.

More experience behind the chair requires a bigger investment.

As you may know, your investment with us depends on how experienced your stylist is. Our service totals are organized by tier and depend on how many years a stylist has and what milestones they have reached.

We give back through rewards points and our VIP Program.

On every dollar you invest, you receive 3 points to use on product purchases in the future. Once you reach 1000 points, you can redeem your points for $10!

For even more benefits, you can invest in our VIP Member Program which provides over $1,500 a year in savings on services and products. Enjoy complimentary waxes, shopping passes to use on products, and discounts with Bergamot Massage, Apple Wellness, and more of our partnering businesses!

So as you can see, we’re more than just regular haircuts and color. We want every experience you have with us to be the best it can possibly be.
