all the salon services you need in one place

You shouldn’t have to visit multiple salons to get the hair treatments you need to look your best. Here at dsparada, you will find everything you need in one place, including:

Haircuts and Hair Styling – Not every haircut is suitable for every person, which is why it is so important to find a stylist with the skill and training to steer you towards what will work for your features and preferences. Here at dsparada, you will find hair stylists and professionals who can not only cut and style your hair, but can also guide you towards the most beautiful version of yourself.

Hair Coloring and Highlights – With so many hair color options available, it can be a little overwhelming to try and decide on which color is right for you. Fortunately, our hair color specialists can narrow down your choices to a more manageable number – basing options on your natural coloring, facial features, and preferences.

Balayage – This hot new hair trend must be experienced in order to truly appreciate the color and texture it gives your hair. At dsparada Color Salon, we are your source for balayage in the Raleigh area.

Keratin Treatments – Keratin treatments from dsparada can eliminate your frizz and most of your curl, all using chemical-free hair products that are safe and effective.

community outreach

Duke Cancer Center – Currently we are volunteering our time one Monday a month to provide salon services to the patients on Duke Cancer Center, whether they are undergoing treatment that day or are a survivor and want to come back and get a free haircut. We do haircuts, head shaves and wig styling. We are also doing a Spring Cleaning to help these patients. Learn More.

Pink in October – At dsparada Color Salon, the month of October is a very important time of the year where we recognize those we love and those we have lost to breast cancer. We feel it is very important to help those in need succeed in their fight against this horrible disease! That is why, for the entire month of October, dsparada Color Salon will be donating 50 percent of the proceeds to the Living Beyond Breast Cancer organization to help provide financial support for those with breast cancer who do not have great health insurance!

Another way you can show your support is by adding a little pink to your beautiful hair, and telling people that you support a great foundation! We can color a small section of your hair, or put in a pink extension. Call us and make an appointment today to show your support, and help us fight breast cancer!

Don’t Worry It Will Grow Back – Dsparada Color Salon proudly supports the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. As a stylist, I cannot recall ever telling anyone, “don’t worry, it will grow back!” But this past weekend, I found myself saying it several times, and it felt really good! This is because I had the wonderful opportunity to shave heads for the St. Baldrick’s Foundation. The St. Baldrick’s Foundation is a volunteer-driven charity committed to funding the most promising research to find cures for childhood cancers and give survivors long and healthy lives, and at dsparada, we proudly support this cause. Give us a call to learn more, and schedule an appointment to show your support today!

Christmas Extravaganza for Oxford Orphanage – Dsparada is a proud sponsor of the Christmas Extravaganza for the Masonic Orphanage Home for Children in Oxford, NC. With the help and support of various sponsors, in 2010 we provided gifts for the children of the orphanage. This year will be the 12th Annual Extravaganza, and for our eighth year, dsparada will again lend their support.

Last year, as sponsors, we provided gifts for 62 children. Sadly, this year there are 78 children ranging from newborns to 21. The Masonic Home for Children provides a safe environment for all ages including high school and college. Donations help the orphanage tremendously, as it gives them a chance to expand their programs and activities for the children on campus and prepare for children who will become a part of their family.

The children who are admitted to the Masonic Home for Children come from various backgrounds in life. Like your children, grandchildren, and your neighbor’s children, they want to be treated with respect, love, and dignity. Our gifts will be utilized in a special way to enhance the quality of their lives for many years to come.

Dsparada will attend the Christmas Tree Decorating Party on December 1 at the Masonic Orphanage in Oxford. We will donate the Christmas tree and participate in the decorating of the tree at the Orphanage. If you would like to help dsparada to provide a better holiday for these children, then please contact Don or any of the talented hair stylists at dsparada Color Salon.

Other Charities that dsparada is proud to support include:

  • SPCA Fur Ball
  • The Helene Foundation
  • Livestrong Foundation
  • Pink Hair for Hope
  • Susan G. Komen
  • Tour de Cure
  • St. Baldrick’s
  • Spare Some for Autism
