I live in philadelphia and found myself flying all the way to Atlanta just to achieve my desired look. It wasn't until I found Richard at The Beauty Lounge that not only achieved the look I wanted, but exceeded my expectations and experiences in Atlanta! He provided me with a braidless sew-in and k-tip extensions that he colored and blended them seamlessly with my hair. I've gotten so many compliments from friends, family, co-workers, and tons of strangers on my hair since visiting Richard. I feel like a celebrity. not only is his work & talent outstanding, he's so sweet and will make sure you're 100% content with your look. the salon is modern, chic, and clean. I love it there and I'm so glad I don't have to book anymore flights or hotels. looking forward to going lighter for the summer ;)

I cannot say enough amazing things about Beauty Lounge and especially Sophia. She has been my…read morehairdresser since 2019, and I truly would not trust anyone else with my hair. I first met Sophia at a different location and happily followed her when she opened the Beauty Lounge, that alone says everything about her talent and character. She is a master at her craft and a true professional. Whether it's dimensional color, seamless balayage, precision cuts, or restorative treatments, she consistently delivers beyond expectations. She doesn't just "match" an inspiration photo; she somehow elevates it and makes it even better, every single time. Sophia is incredibly knowledgeable about hair health. She takes the time to explain what my hair needs, recommends high-quality products, and suggests techniques to maintain strength, shine, and overall integrity between appointments. My hair has never felt healthier, it's stronger, shinier, and grows beautifully because of her guidance and care. Beyond her skill, Sophia is kind, compassionate, and genuine. Sitting in her chair feels like being at home. She listens, she cares, and she understands that helping someone feel beautiful is about so much more than just a cut or color. She creates an experience that leaves you feeling confident, refreshed, and truly seen. Her pricing is always fair and reasonable, and her professionalism never wavers. She is not just an exceptional stylist, she is a wonderful human being. If you are looking for someone who genuinely cares about her clients and consistently overachieves, Sophia at The Beauty Lounge is the one.

It was my first time ever dying my hair and this salon had great reviews and the prices were fair. I did not notice that my grays were not covered until I got home. It's now a month later and what was supposed to be permanent hair dye seems to have completely washed out. My hair looks exactly the same as it did before going there. It's not just the "grown out" hair. It's grays the entire length of my hair that are back. I know that I should have went back and had them redo it, but due to anxiety (& the fact that the girls that worked there were not rude, but definitely not friendly), I couldn't bring myself to go complain. Ultimately, it would be very uncomfortable for me to go back and have them fix it after telling them that the first job was completely sub par. However, as a girl on a budget who cannot afford to have a different salon redo my hair for a while, I felt the need to let others know not to waste their money. Take it from me, who is walking around with all of my original grays that I paid to have dyed only a month ago.

Your mileage may vary, but overall worth returning. ---------------------------- I drove past and saw the sign in the window advertising a $60 wash, cut, signature blowout and was in need of a trim so I thought I'd try this out. I called Saturday for an appointment and got one less than 24 hours later (warning sign perhaps?) Walking in I was initially confused because the lights were practically out (very dimmed) and I wondered if they were open, but I saw the receptionist and walked in. My total time in the chair for cut and "signature blowout" was 20 minutes. My appointment was at 1:15, I got called into the chair at 1:20, was not offered a wash because "my hair looked pretty clean". She didn't part my hair or give it more than a very light spray, the cut was over by 1:30, and there was literally no blowout, but a quick curl and I was out of the chair by 1:40. Spent 5 minutes at the register arguing with the stylists who initially wouldn't honor the $60 special in the window, saying it was a mistake and it was $80, then they called their manager who said the large sign in the window was very old and they could do $10 off instead, to make it $70. What? After a few minutes I successfully convinced them to honor the pricing advertised in the window, paid the $60, and gave a $10 tip for 20 min of work the stylist did, and was out of there by 1:45. I was absolutely dumbfounded a cut and style took 20 minutes. I was also astounded that the large sign in the window still wasn't taken down after I left, if the manager was so convinced it was old signage. The trim was basic, the style fell out 2 hours later, my haircut is HIDEOUSLY uneven, and I feel duped and wasted $70. Please run from this place.

After my engagement ended abruptly she was so kind hearted and even she arranged a boudoir shoot to help get my confidence back up. My hair and makeup was AMAZING! I felt like a total supermodel. I was just floored by her kindness and how she went out of her way to make me feel better. Stuff like that is unheard of these days.

When I came back for my appointment, despite the ORANGE that would NOT leave my hair, Rianna kept me optimistic and explained every step to make sure I would not be disappointed if the orange decided to sit in my locks forever. What made the experience truly enjoyable was the conversation. I've sat in my share of salon chairs, and many MANY times, your hair stylist wont talk to you or connect with you and get to know you, much less explain the process going on above your head. Rianna and her super kind assistant Abby were beyond friendly, got personal and candid about their lives and made me feel like I was amongst friends, which I was desperately in need of. Best part of all, the orange was CANCELED! They turned my orange hair into beautiful ashy silver hair. I nearly cried tears of joy. Everyone working there was super sweet, helpful and they act like a big family. The whole atmosphere just screams inclusivity and love, what more could you ask for? I can't wait for my follow up appointment and I could not be happier that I left my home and ventured to this place. No regrets and not a single negative comment.

I was in the market for a new salon to help me maintain the color block hair style I had. I first…read moretried them in May 2023, and have been returning for touch-ups every other month. Unfortunately, I experienced a tremendous amount of breakage when I moved to Thrive Salon to maintain my color style, even with every intervention and variable that I was able to control myself. (Tons of hair masks, silk bonnets, only air drying, wide-toothed combs rather than brushes, regular haircuts, high end shampoo/conditioner for color-treated hair, changing shampoo/conditioner to another color-safe one, oil sprays... you name it). I kept up with 7 week appointments at my stylist's request to help "minimize damage", but it didn't seem to do anything but put me out of more money, and result in me having less hair. I was dilligent about asking my stylist to do a "breakage check" every time I sat in her chair to try to prevent this. She always said everything looked great. In November, during my normal appointment, I cited that I was noticing substantial breakage. I should have listened to my gut when my stylist responded to my concerns with a surprise, stating "you usually see that up here" while pointing to my scalp. (In hindsight... yikes.) Despite my concerns that day, she didn't seem to heed additional cautions or change her approach. On that same day I cited bad breakage, she lifted a new brunette section of my hair (at my request in a desperate attempt to keep my hair style) *extremely* fast. What normally needs 3 sessions to go from my brunette to our target shade of blonde she somehow achieved in 1 with my roots, and could do in 2 to my ends. She was both surprised and excited at "how light it got" during my wash out. It seemed like she never had full control over her color processing, and didn't even know what she was expecting it to do. Needless to say, all of that hair started breaking in the following weeks, plus other strands. When I went to another salon to get a haircut (I find their haircuts to be outrageously priced at Thrive), the woman shared her concern with me on the health of my hair. She even questioned if Olaplex was being left out of my mix. I didn't have an answer. This salon, despite the high price tag, also doesn't include a basic rough dry for color services to check their work. They let people paying nearly $200 for color walk out with sopping wet hair. The manager assured that a rough dry ("not blow out, that was extra") was normal for color, so stylists could check their work before the customer leaves, but I was handed a blow dryer by the rinser last visit to do it myself while my stylist moved onto another client entirely. She didn't even check on me or say goodbye. It felt wrong. I was paying ~$250 every 8 weeks but couldn't get a rough dry? I had to drive home with wet hair? Despite the poor outcome with their color service, I also observed that I was being charged different ways and different prices for my exact same service every time I went. I was never given a heads up about the price differences, and only found out at the register after my stylist had left. At one point, I was charged for a haircut that I declined in the chair. (Thankfully I noticed!) After I was rung up, I told the man at the desk, and he quickly said "oh, well you got your hair dried, so we have to charge you for a blowout". The price of the blowout helped them retain all of the mischarge for the haircut I never got. It felt very shady to me. (Remember how the rough dry was supposed to be included?) Generally, I find this salon to be very expensive for the skill I was shown. I thought the price I was paying for my color blocking was fair, but seeing that I had so much breakage, maybe it was over-priced like some of their other a la carte menu. ($75 for a *trim* is too rich for my blood.) I'm leaving an extra star despite my experience because when I did have a chance to speak with the salon manager, she was open to feedback, stayed true to her promises of when she would get back to me, and offered a refund for the past haircut/blowout fiasco I retold above. She understandably stood behind her staff, but I was disappointed that the stylist's word was always taken over the customer's. (I have no reason to lie about a service I didn't receive....) They also got me in quickly around the very busy holidays when I called and let them know more of my hair was breaking and I needed to come in to resolve it with my stylist. I appreciate them doing that for me. One last shoutout - Jen at the wash station was seriously a highlight of my experience. Love her and wish the best for her.
