If you're a curly head, please reconsider your life choices and go find a curly salon. If you want…read morea tousled, retro look and restyle your hair everyday, maybe you'd like this. But expect to have your haircut decided for you not with you. I have shoulder length hair I was trying to grow back out. I said I wanted to keep length but clearly needed some help with dimension and layers from a early pandemic self-cut. Leah had already decided what she was doing. The wash was fine, but then she used a towel to tightly pull my hair against my scalp (a major curl no no). The initial layering would have been fine, but then without checking with me, she started twisting large sections of my hair and razoring them!! I was horrified. I knew she went too high and I would end up with awkward short pieces around my scalp and that not paying attention to my curl pattern meant I would end up with ringlets that look like they've been hacked. She then diffused while tightly scrunching my top curls and shaking out the rest. I wear my hair in it's natural tight ringlets, not tousled out, so this didn't provide a realistic assessment of the cut. After washing it at home and letting it curl naturally, I've had to trim quite a few legging ringlets and have found I have a some wierd short curls around the top layer that I'm not loving.

I highly recommend visiting Akasa to see Danny! He is very friendly and talented…read more I went in to get a haircut with him for the first time, and he did a wonderful job. I usually give the stylist very general guidelines to work with (desired length and no bangs) and let them do the rest. My family and friends that have seen my haircut have given me compliments left and right. If you want a detail oriented stylist who cares about making you look your best, go see Danny.

Best hair stylist in town. Been coming to see her every 2 months for the past 2 years!…read more Yes she is known for her bangs and balayage but Jamie's mens haircuts rock! I hate having to upkeep my haircut, but with her mastery she manages to give me a clean cut that lasts 2 months between visits. Highly recommend to book ahead, because shes quite busy! But you will enjoy coming to see her and drinking a beer while she gives you the best cut of your life.

I have a bad habit of putting up with my hair until I reach a "Get it cut NOW!" place, and I found…read moreJamie while determinedly searching for someone who had availability immediately after my yoga class. I could've ended up at Supercuts under those circumstances, but Jamie must've had a cancellation because she had one open appointment yesterday afternoon. (PS: I love being able to schedule online!) As soon as I entered the salon (which is beautiful, by the way), Jamie warmly greeted me at the door; she has an amazing, positive energy, and I trusted her with my locks right away. We talked about what I wanted (non-grandma, low maintenance, incorporate my wacky inelegant natural wave, a hint of edginess so I can trick people into thinking I'm cool and stylish, etc.) and looked at some pictures together, and I could tell she "got me." After a shampoo and fabulous head massage, we returned to the chair so she could work her magic. She styled me using just a blow dryer with a diffuser (Noice - thank you for that!), so I knew I wouldn't have to do a lot to maintain it, and when I saw the final product, I knew I'd found my spirit stylist. I. LOVE. MY. HAIR. (And this is not something I say often.) She upped my style game significantly without breaking the bank. (And if you've visited a stylist in Atlanta, you know it can happen!) Her rate is very reasonable when you consider the epic service she provides. I wasn't feeling photo-ready since I dragged my post-yoga self to the salon without a smidge of makeup, so I'm posting a pic here. Thank you, Jamie!

Lisianna was amazing. I was running very late and know how potentially frustrating that can be for…read morea stylist, but Lisianna never wavered or made me feel rushed. She was professional, gave me the utmost attention, listened, and had feedback when I needed it. I came away with a cut that is exactly what I wanted and I love it. I actually couldn't wait to get home and tell the Internet how great my experience was at Mary Todd with Lisianna. I've been looking for an Atlanta stylist for almost five years and she made me feel right at home.

Well at first I was super excited after looking at their website and seeing all the updated…read morehaircuts that they do. And so I called and emailed and texted but I didn't get a response so I thought, well maybe they were great and maybe now they moved on or something I don't know I was kind of thinking all kinds of thoughts and I wrote them because they had something listed on next door neighbor so I reached out that way and thought well this probably isn't going anywhere and it's a waste of time. But actually I heard from Steven and his colleague and they were really apologetic and I'm making an appointment to go there. Because I think they're the only ones who can give me what I want they understand they keep upgrading and learning new styles of cutting hair not just like I got some scissors I'm going to put a bowl on your head and cut your hair and that's all I know how to do. Just because you go to the beauty college you have to keep up your skills just like a lawyer does just like a chef does you have to keep learning. No one wants that bowl on your head cut. So I'm going to give them a try and I think I'll be pretty happy so more to follow
