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.

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!

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.

Absolutely loved the haircut and experience of the service. They use R+Co products which leaves the…read morehair hydrated and nourished. The hair stylists are experienced and offer great consultation tailored to what your hair needs. The salon is neat and feels like a loft. They offer a lot of different services, and also sell a wide variety of hair care products. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a good hair day! Kudos to staff and management

My friend came to visit me in town and found this place on Google because she saw great reviews…read more She has been doing her hair in a honey balayage style for awhile now. Not only did VIvian turn her into a carrot top, but when she wanted to try to get it fixed, her and her coworker said they didn't want anything to do with hair. AND gaslit her saying that she showed her different photos (photos my friend showed attached). My friend kept begging asking if there's anything they can do to redo the balayage or fix it, and they were extremely rude and mean and refused to answer my friend's questions, but just saying they were done here. My friend went into the bathroom to go cry. Talk about not only messing up, making my friend cry, and not taking ANY accountability. We will NEVER be coming back here nor will I ever recommend it to anyone. You know hair can make SUCH a big difference on someone, and I am just baffled that they not only didn't take any accountability but also didn't CARE about how they messed up to try and fix what they did wrong. Unbelievable.

This is a great place. Fun music, cool vibe. Relaxed atmosphere for men and women. I chose Mary…read moreTood's because it is walking distance from my new home. I am now a loyal customer because Kailey gave me one of the best haircuts I have ever had. I have a chin length bob with face framing blonde highlights and she did a wonderful job. I could not recommend her more.

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
