My appt was with Sandra. I requested a color and cut with wispy bangs. She did a great job. I am very satisfied and will return for another style. I also had my eyebrows waxed. Price was reasonable. The salon was very clean and well stocked. read more

This salon has a very welcoming staff and upbeat environment with a beautiful set up. I recently got my hair transformed from a kind of blue calico to a dark blonde. Blue hair doesn't often like to go blonde but Sandra does wonders with hair and I will 100% pick this salon and Sandra every time i need to get my hair dyed. read more

Kathy Adams Salon - The finished product from my session with Sandra - Hair Salons Near Me - Buford, Georgia

See all

Amazing that Sanda or Kathy have any clients (or friends) at all. I would give less than a 0 rating if I could. Both of these women tell lies and want to way over charge for the at best mediocre services. I do not recommend them or will ever recommend Kathy Adams Salon to anyone. read more

Highly unprofessional and very condescending people and I would make sure the stylist you choose actually knows what they are doing or else you will get a botched haircut and management will do nothing to help you out as the customer. Customer service is absolutely terrible. Had the front desk tell me that this was a great looking haircut and you can see in the photos how uneven and botched my hair and they even took way too much of my hair that I originally requested. STAY AWAY! read more

If I could give less than one star I would! Left several messages for Kathy the owner to call me back, They said upfront she's too busy...I went In To get a partial low light / highlight foil with a brown and whitish blonde to blend with my gray was charged $164.00 she has done my hair five other times had no problem. Sandra messed it all up didn't even die down to the roots with parts that are brown at the top of my head, then yellow then brown again proceeded to blame it on me. charge me $38.00 more to fix her mistake that three days later washed out . this is what it looks like bad job. To your reply, this is my hair. I was never told I would be charged I showed Sandra when I came in it wasn't all the way down to my scalp nor the color that I get .this looks like zebra. I have pictures of previous times and it was never this color nor such an unprofessional job. the first day that I came in I told Sandra that I had a sensitive scalp. read more

I'm new to the area and asked around for the best place for edgy hair cuts. Multiple people said Kathy Adams Salon. I was able to get right in through the online appointment system and Adam cut my hair. He did an EXCELLENT job and created hair perfection! You get what you pay for with hair cuts and you're going to be looking at it every day. I spent less on my hair than on my favorite pair of Doc Martens and I can show it off more. Every single person at this salon was AWESOME! I highly recommend. read more

Good haircuts but over priced for my type of cut. I am a woman with what I would consider a men's cut and I was charged a full $70/80 Women's cut price the handful of times I got my hair cut here. I think it's a little silly to have "men's cut prices" but they don't apply to the cut type .. rather the actual gender of the client.. kinda unfortunate and made my pocket book feel taken advantage of. Also, when I first started getting my hair cut here it was already expensive but then I went in for my last appointment that was pre booked and no one informed me of a price increase... just all of a sudden at check out my haircut was $10 more than my last visit. I am always willing to pay for quality service I just feel like some of this was a little un justifiable. read more

A bad review can't do it justice. Frankly I have better things to do than write reviews. The customer service was absolutely horrible. I wasn't satisfied with my haircut and my stylist was not understanding at all what I was wanting. As a first time customer I'd assume better attention to detail. I was willing to pay anyway , I understand time is money. But to be fooled into believing that she was the most experienced mens hairstylist was complete nonsense. Dear Robin , find a new profession , no hard feelings. Sincerely , the guy who doesn't feel bad writing this review the same you didn't feel bad giving me a haircut I didn't like. Cheers read more

Kathy Adams Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Riley is awesome! She has taken me from blonde to blue to crayola red to hot pink (all on purpose!) She always gives me her honest opinion and advice when it comes to the crazy things I do to my hair and it has probably saved me from going bald and/ or broke. Add in the fact that her personality is fun and caring and you've got everything you could ask for in a stylist. read more

LOVE MY NEW COLOR AND CUT!! THANK YOU KRISTA! Wonderful feeling knowing I have finally found a stylist of my own. Graet place warm and welcoming. Just like being with your girl friends. I see why this salon is still the best in Gwinnett and you should go experience why! read more

I visited this salon for the first time today. Sandra did my color and cut. Even though I was her first appointment, (8 am), she came in and was the sweetest person. She listened to what I wanted and explained everything perfectly as she did my hair. I loved the shop as well. I would highly recommend and will certainly be going back in the future. I love my hair cut and color. Thanks again Sandra!!! Angie Bramblett read more

I am sooo against spending over 15 on my hair because ive spent 40 and it did me no good.... they spend so much time on your hair. Amanda has been cutting my hair forever! I have even gotten my hair and make up done here for a photoshoot! Everyone is so kind and knowledgeable here! I always feel like a million bucks after I leave KAS! read more

April was amazing. I have a stunning new hair cut and amazing color. April had perfect technique with her many pairs of scissors. Every piece of hair is perfect!! I have been looking for 2 years to find someone that could do what April accomplished. I will never go anywhere else! Thank you for a perfect experience!! read more

Riley has been doing my hair for a while now and she never disappoints. She fixed my hair for my wedding and I had so many compliments. I have now sent my daughter to her, who is very picky, and she loves her new color! Highly recommend. read more

I recently had my hair cut and colored by Riley Alcock. She was highly professional and listened to what I wanted to have done. I was attending The CMA Awards and wanted a great color (i.e. I needed to cover my greys and liven up my color). She did a two-process color and a glaze that gave me an amazing and vibrant red. My new color netted as many compliments as my dress and even my coworkers complimented the new color. My cut is also stylish and easy to maintain, which is exactly what I asked for. I can recommend Riley enough. My next appointment is already scheduled for the week of my birthday and I can't wait! read more

If you are thinking of going here make sure you book your appointment with Riley Alcock. She is the best with everything she does. My daughters hair was beyond repair from horrible coloring but Riley saved it. She is the only person I trust with coloring and a scissor. You will not be disappointed. read more

I just got my hair done for the first time at this salon. Amanda is AWESOME!!! She took time to ask questions and get to know my color and cut preferences. She did an amazing job, the highlights look so beautiful, and she was able to fix some unfortunate layers my last stylist at another salon had done. She's my person now! Thank you so much Amanda, see you again soon!! read more

al issues... I booked a few weeks in advance (I'm not local) with Sandra. I scheduled a hair color, cut and style. I arrived on time, she arrived about 15 minutes late, which wouldn't be a big deal if she hadn't been constantly texting her daughter and roommate throughout my appt. she then went to lunch and had someone else take care of me for a while. I asked for " strawberry and auburn highlights" (even brought pics!) I left with some shade of red I'd never seen and super blonde- almost green tinted highlights. She knew it bc she told me she needed to "glaze" the highlights that looked green. She's a "master stylist" so I trusted her. I was SO wrong to do that. I didn't know what to do and she was rushing me out before I could even explain what I was feeling and even told me the blonde would " tone down" when I shampooed and dried it again. She told me I was the "last client that day and she needed to get home bc her daughter had let her dog out" Again, I'm not local and trusted the "experienced" stylist. I got home and had to have my hair fixed. It was beyond horrible. When she cut my hair, I asked for about 1.5 inches and she cut closer to 3, never even bothering to frame my face like I asked. I'd been at this salon many time, but not with Sandra. I will never go back and I'm out $300!!! Think twice before choosing! read more

I came here and Emily M. Did my hair. She gave me exactly what I wanted! She asked all the right questions to make sure I had the most out of my experience. She's so fun and sweet! Ask for her, you won't be disappointed!! Thanks Emily!! read more

Everytime I go in, I request to be seen by April. She always helps me look my greatest. If I ask her opinion on something she will be more then willing to provide it. With her knowledge and skill I always leave happy! I highly recommend her! read more

So I went for the first and last time to KAS today. Was VERY specific what I wanted/needed. Had April for the cut. Told her NOT TOO SHORT!! Interrupted her twice during the cutting to caution that it was looking Too SHORT...guess what ...ended up WAY TOO SHORT! People were looking at me questioningly...I knew it looked horrible! Listen to your clients!! Don't do what YOU think will look good....do what your client REQUESTS!! So disturbed and dissatisfied! Then they want me to Venmo or tip in cash....never again!!!! read more

I found this salon when they were in the mall of ga. I was a walk in and a wonderful stylist named Nikki looked at my hair addressed my issues and I have been a client since. That was over 10 years ago. The salon is beautiful clean and very modern. Everyone who works there is friendly and helpful. Most of all they are professional and knowledgeable about hair in all areas. Cut-color and styles. For me most important they all have beautiful Hair. My issue if your stylist hair looks bad you gonna look bad. Go see them. read more

I scheduled an appointment with Riley today because I saw positive reviews for her on Yelp. I didn't think there was much she could do with my bad haircut I got a few weeks prior (at another salon). But she did! I absolutely love the magic she worked with her scissors today! Thanks Riley!! read more

I came to Kathy Adams Salon after a traumatic cut and color at another salon. My hair was dry and ultra processed from the previous salon bleaching it and then dying it again to "correct" the previous color. I asked for balayage and instead I got what looked like dip dyed blonde hair so needless to say my hair was in need of some serious TLC. After letting it grow for a few months and trying to nurse it back to health, I booked my first appointment at Kathy Adams with Amanda and she worked WONDERS on my poor hair! She cut it to look exactly like the picture I brought in and she worked magic on my horrible dye job! Instead of my hellish dip dye, it was fresh and appropriately balayaged and I LOVED it so much! I've since been to Amanda twice and she always does a fantastic job. I'm so happy I found a salon that does my hair the way I like it and that has such friendly staff! Definitely ask for Amanda! read more

Great service! Ive been going here for 5+ years and Michelle and Loren are wonderful.

I've been a customer since 2012. Since then I have tried 1 different salon and even experimented on my hair. I will never go to any other salon or even think about touching my own hair. My hair guru Amanda always helps me to achieve the look I want. read more

I have extremely curly hair and the only person I let near it is Riley. The one time I absolutely had to go to someone else due to her being on maternity leave, my hair was butchered. When she came back and I came to her for help she took her time and constantly showed me in the mirror what she was doing and made sure it was to my liking (I was traumatized from the man I let touch my hair because it was now so short). She was patient and made me feel comfortable letting her know what I didn't like and she didn't stop til I was satisfied. Never again will I go to anyone else for a curly cut. read more

Do NOT go to KAS! If I could assign negative stars, I would. Several BAD experiences there. We have given KAS our business for the last time. My teenager has received two botched ombre hair colorings from two different stylists there. The first time Taylor colored her hair, she left a visible color line horizontally across the back of my daughter's head. It took 6 hours to correct the mess. Two weeks ago, my daughter returned to see a different stylist, Amanda. She asked for a quote prior to the service and was told ~$189. I dropped her off at the salon at 2:30pm, then received a distressed text from my DD a few hours later that Amanda had made the same mistakes that Taylor did and her hair looked terrible. At 5:30p I called the front desk to ask what was taking so long and the employee said they were trying to correct the hair issue. She said it would be another hour. Additional texts rolled in from my daughter stating that Amanda did a terrible job with the color and she was trying to "fix" the color to make her hair look presentable, including natural blending (balayage), NOT a visible transition line. The salon closed at 8pm...they were still not finished. Finally, at 9:30pm, I had to go into the salon SEVEN hours later and confront the owner. He nor the stylist took no responsibility for the horrific customer service, long appointment time, botched color job. He and Amanda just kept stating that they did their best to make sure my daughter got what she wanted and in the end her hair looked great so why was I upset? He offered no apology nor did he offer to discount the services for our time and trouble...in fact he charged my daughter $301 for the coloring! I told him I did not expect to be charged above the initial quote especially after the awful experience. He said that was not even the full amount Amanda "should" have charged my teenage daughter! The next day I posted my negative review on FB and contacted the owner again asking him to reconsider the dollar amount he charged my daughter. She spent all of her bank account to pay this joker. He offered to reimburse her $111. The end. In the meantime, one of his KAS employees started sending me and my friend private messages on FB asking us why we are such haters, and why we are ruining the salon's livelihood. Class act, Kathy Adams. Please do not give this salon your business. Two strikes, they are out. read more

Kathy Adams salon is by far the best salon I've ever been too. They have very talented stylist who always listen and take their time to make sure the client receives exactly what they want. I have been going to KAS for 4 years now and will never go anywhere else. They have a forever client! Thank you for always making me feel welcome and providing great service every time!! read more

Horrible place. Overpriced & very rude. These chicks in there act like we are in Beverly Hills. I have been getting my hair done for a long time & have never heard of a highlight & cut that cost s $490 ANYWHERE. especially by some rookie who just got out of school. I was very clear on how much I wanted to spend. I paid the max I has stated & she tried to overcharge me by telling me she had to use more color AFTER doing so on her own without informing me about any of this... Very tacky & unprofessional!! Then after I had paid & left, the salon manager called me threatening me to take me to court. Who does that?! Not sure where these chicks are from but they don't have a lick of sense when it comes to customer service. You don't call a client after she has left the salon demanding more money. The wackiest experience I have ever had with the most bizarre people in this industry, mind you is have lived in a lot of major cities but this won the award for THE WORST SALON EXPERIENCE EVER. I would never recommend thus place to anyone. You are sure to get better care & service from a salon inside of a walmart. Steer clear if this place unless you want to ripped off & treated like trash by the wonky workers there. read more

Michelle and Adam are the best personable, professional and they rock the Brazilian blowout!

My daughter made an appointment with Jordan in December for a haircut and color. Her hair went from her rib cage and ended up above her a shoulders! And the color was perfect. It was a whole makeover and Jordan took the best care of her. So, i scheduled a haircut with her yesterday. The online scheduling they have made it extremely easy. Well, I walked out feeling amazing. I usually get the same haircut (Straight across the back trim. Lol) and she made me brave enough to try a different style with the same ease as the usual one I always get. I don't think I've ever written a review here, but I really wanted to share that Jordan made me leave the salon feeling really good about myself which probably hasn't happened in years and years. Go to Kathy Adams Salon! All the employees are so friendly and I love how they actually listen and communicate clearly throughout whatever service they're giving at the time. read more

Here is an honest review, I used to go to KAS when it was at the mall several years ago. I moved downtown and spent several years at Van Michaels. When I moved back to the area, I went back to KAS in their new location. The girl I regularly see now is on maternity leave (My mom and I both love Jill), but I decided to get highlights this summer. I saw another stylist and got a little sticker shock when I paid the bill. I think it was a case of mismanaged expectations. But here's the thing, when I expressed my disappointment, Kathy, the owner, went out of her way to fix the problem. She wanted to make sure I felt comfortable with my hair and that I got a good value. She made sure I felt like I was heard. I feel so much better now and will continue to come back. read more

Went for my first time on Wednesday and I loved it! Everyone was super nice and helpful. I went to Amanda and she is fantastic. I will be back until I don't have hair anymore!!! read more

They are way over priced. I had an appointment and the stylist was late because she was coming from her other job. Then she was juggling two appointments at the same time. I had to wait 25 mins after the timer went off for her to get to a stopping point with the other client to rinse my hair. The front desk girl was rude also. My hair was colored but it looked really bad. It wasn't at all what I showed her I wanted based on the color swatches. It actually turned out like I had put red food coloring in my hair. I paid $260 just for highlights that look terrible. I am telling people that it's my 4th of July statement just until I can get it re-done. read more

I love this salon now that it's not in the mall. It's easy to park and has a great atmosphere with very nice staff all around. I also think the prices are very reasonable and actually less than I expected and than what I was paying before I came back to KAS. It does depend on your stylist. I see Emily Muller and I drive an hour to go to her because she's great. Very welcome and warm and extremely professional. Emily will take the time to get the cut/color/style that you like. I have been seeing her for a year now and her cuts have made a transition from very short to shoulder length a breeze - normally I want to quit when it gets to that awkward stage but she always had ideas to make it fun and attractive. Her color work is excellent. I have less color on my hair now and longer touch up times (less cost) and I think it looks better than when I was over-processed by other stylists. Go see Emily, I promise you won't be disappointed!! read more
