Hair Salon Near Apex, NC

Looking for a hair salon near Apex, NC that delivers premium results without the premium attitude? Milk & Honey – The Hair Lounge is located just minutes from downtown Apex in the heart of Cary’s MacGregor Village shopping center. Our stylists, Ashley Vargo and Kylie Seagroves, specialize in transformative hair services — from hand-tied extensions and lived-in balayage to precision cuts and smoothing treatments — for clients throughout the Triangle, including Apex, Holly Springs, and the surrounding Wake County communities.

Why Apex Residents Choose Milk + Honey

Apex has earned its motto, “The Peak of Good Living,” and residents here expect a standard of quality that matches their community. That is exactly what brings so many Apex clients to our doors at MacGregor Village.

Unlike large franchise salons where you are just a number, Milk & Honey is a boutique studio where every appointment gets the attention it deserves. Ashley and Kylie are both certified Babe Hair Extensions specialists and certified Brazilian Blowout stylists — credentials that matter when you are trusting someone with your hair. These are not weekend workshop certifications. They represent hundreds of hours of advanced training in the specific techniques that deliver natural-looking, long-lasting results.

Our Apex clients often tell us they tried salons closer to home first but kept coming back to Milk + Honey because of the consistency. Whether you live in Scotts Mill, Bella Casa, Haddon Hall, or one of the neighborhoods along Olive Chapel Road, the short drive to our Cary studio is well worth it for a stylist who actually remembers your hair history, your preferences, and your goals.

Our Hair Services for Apex Clients

Hair Extensions

We offer hand-tied, tape-in, and fusion hair extensions for clients who want added length, volume, or both. As certified Babe Hair Extensions professionals, we custom-blend each set to match your natural color and texture. Extensions are one of our most requested services from Apex clients, and we provide thorough consultations to ensure the right method for your hair type and lifestyle.

Balayage & Ombre

Our balayage and ombre services create that natural, sun-kissed dimension that looks effortless but requires real skill to execute. This hand-painted highlighting technique grows out beautifully, which means fewer salon visits — something our busy Apex professionals and parents appreciate.

Hair Color

From full color transformations to root touch-ups and custom color formulations, we mix every shade specifically for you. We also offer hair foil highlights for clients who prefer more structured, high-contrast dimension.

Haircuts & Styling

A great haircut is the foundation of everything. Whether you are looking for a fresh new shape or maintaining your current style, our precision cuts are tailored to your face shape, hair texture, and daily routine.

Bridal & Special Occasion Hair

Getting married at one of the Triangle’s beautiful venues? Our bridal hair services include trials, day-of styling, and bridal party packages. We work with brides from Apex, Cary, and Raleigh who want polished, photograph-ready styles that last all night.

Brazilian Blowouts & Keratin Treatments

North Carolina humidity is no joke, and our Apex clients know it well. Our Brazilian Blowout treatments and keratin treatments eliminate frizz and cut your morning styling time dramatically. As certified Brazilian Blowout stylists, we use the professional-grade formulas that deliver smooth, manageable results lasting up to six months.

About Apex, NC

Apex has grown from a small railroad town into one of the most sought-after communities in the Triangle, and for good reason. With a population now exceeding 80,000, it offers that rare combination of small-town character and big-city convenience. The historic downtown along Salem Street is home to locally owned restaurants, boutiques, and annual events like the Apex PeakFest that draw visitors from across Wake County.

Families are drawn to Apex for its top-rated schools — Olive Chapel Elementary, Apex Middle, and Apex High School consistently rank among the best in the state. Communities like Scotts Mill, Bella Casa, and Abbington offer beautiful homes with easy access to Beaver Creek Commons shopping, Jordan Lake recreation, and the Research Triangle Park employment corridor via NC-540.

We are proud to serve this growing community. Whether you have lived in Apex for decades or just moved into one of the new developments off Kelly Road, you deserve a hair salon near Apex that treats you like a neighbor, not just a client.
