Donnie began his career in the beauty industry in 1982. As an ambitious new hair stylist he earned the opportunity to travel throughout the United States and Canada with platform Kenra artist, Robert Melton. In his travels he assisted the hosting of many educational, coloring, cutting and technique classes. After building his foundation as an advanced color and cutting specialist he managed numerous privately owned salons in Independence Mall in Wilmington NC. Donnie provides a family-like environment to all his staff and clients. His dedication, warmth and encouragement implements the positive feel throughout the salon.
After much anticipation and hard work Donnie is proud to introduce and welcome you to his very own full service salon and spa with a family of very talented individuals guaranteed to give you the look and feel that you will love!
As owner of Tanglez Hair Salon, Donnie Canady is here to make sure that everything about your visit is perfect. Your decision to visit us is a choice that we deeply appreciate. Donnie constantly strives to deliver the best services and products available in the Wilmington area. If there’s anything that Tanglez Salon and Spa can do to improve your visit, just let Donnie know.
While you can find Donnie in the salon on any given day, (some have asked if he ever goes home!) he still makes time to devote several days to being “behind the chair” where he continues to enjoy giving his clients his undivided attention and expertise! Call Tanglez to book your next appointment with Donnie or any one of his experienced stylists.

Denise has just recently been voted “Best Spray Tan in Wilmington” by Focus on the Coast. She has been doing Sunless-Spray Tanning for over five years and loves it. Denise prides herself in making clients feel as comfortable as possible. Spray Tanning is a great way to achieve that “just off the beach” glow without all of the harmful effects from the sun or tanning bed. All it takes is just a few minutes; it’s quick-drying, natural and will last seven to twelve days. Radiant supple bronzed skin is only one spray away!

It’s hard to put the job description of “Momma” into words. Although she is not directly an employee of Tanglez, she is the heart. Without her, there would be no us! You can catch her in Tanglez every Saturday while her son and salon owner, Donnie Canady, styles her hair. Whether it’s homemade lunch or friendly conversation, Ernestine Canady brings so much to the family at Tanglez.
