Motive Salon, Pittsburgh PA

Great spot! Love the ability to request a silent appointment for those days when you aren’t feeling chatty. Abby cut my hair exactly like I wanted, and the whole crew is super friendly!

I love Motive! The vibe is kind and fun.
Breanne is absolute sunshine. She is skilled and creative. I have the best time, and I leave looking (but more importantly feeling) great.

Had my first haircut with Nicole and she was wonderful! The place is really nice and welcoming.

All the staff is great. Carleen has seen my kiddo several times now and I am convinced she really knows her stuff. My child left today with the widest smile ever after their cut. The environment is relaxed, welcoming, and friendly. I highly recommend it!

Couldn't asked for a better stylist than Nicole.
She was really nice and fixed my crooked undercut which I did, lol.
The vibe in that salon was great I suffer from bad anxiety/social anxiety and felt so calm and relaxed.
You can be yourself in this salon!

I have been going to Motive for years… with long hair, it means I don’t have to go very often but I look forward to it every time. The staff is welcoming, professional and REALLY good at what they do!

I came the day before my wedding for highlights, haircut and styling with Carleen and was incredibly disappointed by the lack of direction followed (she decidedly independently to use hair dye instead of toner for highlights, against my requests, and without informing me until after the fact), the inconsistent color pattern (which forced me to part my hair at the side…Carleen did offer to fix it but I had already been there for 3+ hours, and I had my rehearsal dinner to go to in a few short hours), and the prices. I was told in the middle of the service that they charge by time (not clear on their website when I booked the appointment and I wasn’t told beforehand), so the highlights and haircut + style was $400. Unreal. If I my hair looked great, I would have been okay with the price, but it didn’t. And the reason it took so long was not thoroughness, but incompetence. Expecting me to pay extra for time whenever the stylist is taking extra time because she's made mistakes is ridiculous.

Got a haircut from Nichole and she was great! Very easy to converse with, which is usually my least favorite thing about getting my hair cut at a salon. I was in and out in 30 mins, parking was easy, easy to book online, price was very reasonable.

Motive was a fabulous experience from entry to exit all our needs were addressed highly reccomend if you are visiting or a local.
