Double crowns and a cowlick. Anyone who knows anything about hair cuts or styling knows these…read moretraits + short mens cuts = frustration. I cannot begin to tell you the number of times I have "settled" for a haircut or flat out grew my hair longer just to avoid having another bad experience. That is, until I sat in Georgina's chair and got the hands-down best stylist experience I have ever had. From the skills to the space and insistence on you leaving satisfied, your strands are safe in her hands. The Space Within a cozy business plaza just across from the theater on Newberry, Georgina's personal chair sits nestled inside a very clean, well-decorated shared space. The concept at this location is less "sea of cookie-cutter chairs, all side-by-side" and more "private, comfortable areas to just chat and relax". It is so private, in fact, that I do not see the faces of any other stylists who also work their magic while visiting, nor other patrons getting styled. Perhaps people-watchers like the communal approach, but I love this isolation. Getting your hair done is even more relaxing when other noise and chatter are gone, plus if you have been going to the same expert for years you are likely to want to catch up with them. The Service Let me start by saying I have not just gone "to the same place for years." I have been seeing the same PERSON for years (roughly 3 years I believe). Apart from her skills, which I will go into soon, Georgina is a genuinely thoughtful, patient person. She never fails to offer amenities for those who like a beverage or coffee to make their experience even more of a value, so keep that in mind if you are thinking of paying her a visit. For me, even before she took on her own space, it was clear she had incredible "chair-side manner" with her visitors. Effortless conversation if you are the type, but I imagine even those who are not chatty would feel comfortable relaxing quietly while getting spruced up. The Styles Did I mention the double crowns and cowlick? Having had such troublesome experiences with chains and other alternatives, I asked a friend who styled hair if she would take me on. Her response (approximately): "I honestly am not as strong at men's cuts as Georgina. She's a rockstar and you should seriously book her." I did just that, and she was not wrong. I sat down, expressed my woes of the past: lop-sided, off-kilter, unruly, etc. Georgina heard me and, in a flash, turned those fears into a clean, slick, downright fly-AF haircut I was proud to walk away sporting. I even managed to convince my girlfriend to see her and she was extremely attached to an out-of-town stylist -- and she loved her 'do too! Final Thoughts At the risk of making Georgina too busy to ever see me again, I encourage anyone looking for a long-term, careful stylist to book her ASAP. Her work speaks for itself in pictures, but as someone looking to just get a decent haircut against the odds of my genetic traits, I am telling you she can make magic happen.

I booked a consultation with Noah, and they were super sweet! We talked briefly about what I wanted for my hair, which included a slight trim and bangs! After booking an appointment a few days after, I arrived and got my hair done. I felt extremely comfortable in the environment, and I loved how roomy and clean the salon was. Noah made sure to check on me during the time to see if I was liking the progress. In the end, I loved the style that I received! It was perfect, and exactly what I had in mind. I will definitely be making a return here and I cannot recommend this place enough!

I came in for my appointment with Sharon and I asked for my whole head to be dyed cherry red. We had a consult prior to this and she agreed we can make that happen. 3hours in and I was on the verge of tears. My hair is not even close to red it's light brown with hints of copper. (Photos provided below). Keep in mind I have blond highlights in my hair- the highlights aren't even red? How can you mess up going from blond to red?! At $85 an hour, it was an absolute rip-off. I am completely disappointed and this is happening only 2 weeks away from my birthday, I am so embarrassed. I explained to her this color is nothing near what I asked for, she removed 1h from the charge because she knew she had messed up but that will not fix my hair. I had high hopes for this place. This was a waste of $170. 0/10 if I could give 0 stars I would. What even is the point of the consultation if you don't know your own limits? Unacceptable.

Last week I went to Studio B to get a manicure before the Murder at the Hipp Party. I saw Dawn who…read moreis a wonderful nail technician! I had met Dawn through a few friends who said she was wonderful, so I thought I would give it a try! When I first pulled up to the building I was a little apprehensive, because the outside looks small and older. However, upon entering I was pleasantly surprised! The inside was light, open and smelled wonderful! Dawn's room was upstairs, so be prepared for a couple steps! Dawn was so sweet, gentle and kind! She was patient with me helping me decide on the color to choose, and whether I wanted gel or regular. She was so thorough in describing each of my options! I have had quite a few manicures, but never one as relaxing, luxurious and friendly as this one! It was like a spa treatment! She not only painted my nails but massaged my hands, fixed my cuticles, exfoliated my hands and arms and then moisturized! The pedicure looks like it would be even more relaxing - there was a huge chair and all types of fun stuff! I will have to go back for that soon! The room smelled of lavender, there was gently music playing, happy posters and sayings on the walls, and at the end she gave me the buffer and nail file, which was very sweet. Dawn was so wonderful and thoughtful that she even walked me all the way out to my car and buckled me in so I wouldn't hurt my nails! If you are looking for a lovely, relaxing nail treatment I highly recommend Dawn at Studio B, she will make your day 100 times better!

She offers a variety of hair treatments including Natura keratin treatments. She only sells/uses products that she trusts to use on herself which says a lot. She has never cut more than I wanted (something I've experienced all too often at other places). She listens to her clients to ensure she gives them what they want but she isn't afraid to speak up if she thinks she can do something better...she openly works with you to make your hair beautiful! She rents space out to a hair threader and other stylists and she also offers slimming/toning wraps and Eurowave which helps detoxify and tighten your body.
