Tracie Hunter-Bowens I remember when I first met Carl Watkins, the owner of CB’s Class Act Hair Design in Winston-Salem almost 15 years ago. I was seeking a hair stylist at the time so I paid close attention to hair styles worn by other women. When I noticed someone whose hair look especially nice, I would ask who did their hair. Each time they would say, Carl Watkins. So, I decided to contact Mr. Watkins for an appointment. When I called, I was surprised when he scheduled an appointment for a consultation first. During my visit he examined my hair and provided his professional opinion for its care. I was so impressed with his expertise and his calm demeanor. I knew I had found my new stylist. A few years ago I was foolish, and stopped going to the salon because I thought I could do my own hair and save money. As they say, you get what you pay for. So last year I swallowed my pride and called once again for an appointment, and Carl graciously welcomed me back. Thank goodness! The salon is as I remembered. The atmosphere is always professional, and when I go I know that I’m in trusted hands. This has become my respite from a busy life. As I close my eyes, I listen to smooth jazz or R&B and enjoy being pampered. Since I’ve come back, I’ve began to enjoy seeing the familiar faces of the ladies who are regulars just as I have become. As I settle in for a while, my time is over and I’m off to my busy life again. In other words, you don’t stay all day. There is rarely a day that goes by that I don’t receive a compliment about my hair, and just like me 15 years ago they ask me, “Who does your hair?” Also, “I love the color and it works well with your complexion.” So I say, Carl Watkins of CB’s Class Act Hair Design. I’ll never leave again!

As as soon as I walked into Cb's class act I realized that this was an immaculate place to have my hair done. The salon was modern and upscale. Reasonable prices. The salon was clean and pristine! The staff was very knowledgeable,polite and very thorough with assisting me with my busted hair before I went and in I looked like Grace Jones when I came out Halle berry! Well not quite but they made my hair look like a million dollars! I would like to say Thank you to Carl and his very impressive staff. I will be back and next time I will bring my daughters!!!

My first impression walking into the salon was class...I have been to several salons over the years and have never been greeted in such a professional manner. Everyone spoke to me we i came, immediately my stylist was alerted of my arrival and started on me. The consultation was great i really feel like she really wanted to understand what i wanted. They even had a shampoo tech that had lots of knowledge about hair. the decor is pure opulence i have never been in a salon that has so much attention to detail and cleanliness.I loved my hair i got what i asked for because the stylist really listened to me. I watched the flow of the salon everyone in there did hair exceptionally well.As my stylist finished me i noticed a very attractive man walking towards me and complimented the stylist on her work..i was then told he was the owner. He spoke to everyone as he waled through the salon and made everyone feel warm and welcome.. This salon has truly impressed me, i have referred four other people to the salon and we all had a great experience.... CB's you rock thank you for setting a standard that other salon should follow.. im a client forever

Kudos to the entire staff but I’m sending special kudos to my stylist…. Carl B. Watkins, the man with a plan!!! Love ya! Ms. C!

I have been a client at CB's Class Act Hair. Designs (CB's) since 1989. I have gone from sister curl to wrap, long, short, and all in between. I cannot imagine any other stylist working in my hair. Carl Watkins has been my stylist since 1989 and he is an exceptional stylist. He gets to know his clients and he has an understanding of what will be in their best interest. He is very knowledgeable of all types of hair and how to keep his clients' hair healthy. He has mastered his profession and is capable of working on all types of hair. He is concerned about his clients, we are like a family. I have confidence in his ability and trust him unconditionally. I have recommended him to countless others over the years and I have personally brought family members to the salon. The facility is stylish and clean. The staff is professional and courteous. I would never hesitate to send others to the salon for I know they will be greatly satisfied when they leave. Thank you Carl Watkins and the CB's staff for 25 years of outstanding service and friendship. Loyal and Longtime Client L. Renee' J. Rogers
