Small/medium kinky twists

I've been a regular here since 2019, but my last visit with Aaniah was a total letdown. I came to get some small/medium kinky twists, but the result? Not even close to professional standards especially the front section which was seriously lacking the fullness I was expecting on. Compared it to the pics on the website and it was a world of difference. For the price I paid, I was expecting a better work. I have done with style on MYSELF before and I did a way better job than a so-called "professional." After this experience I wouldn't recommend this spot to anyone. You'll end up just as disappointed as I was

Hair sticking out of braids in the back.
Matty E.

My most recent visit to Natural Trendzetter was bad and the customer service follow-up was really bad.I wanted to get 5 French braids (under braided). The owner, Renee told me to choose 5 "cornrows" from their menu and enter under braids in the comments. I did. I arrived at the salon only to be told by the selected stylist, Dominique, that she dis not know how to do French braids and that she NEVER reads the comments. I was disappointed and told her so but had wasted the time and allowed her to just braid 5 feed in cornrows. On first glance, I noticed some of the added hair sticking out. The stylist clipped that spot. What I didn't know until I got home was that there was other hair in the bun sticking out and she used a gel that turned white after drying. I contacted owner, Renee who said the stylist didn't finish the ends because I was "just going to wear it in a bun". While examining my hair closer, I saw white patches on my scalp and chalky white stuff in my hair. It was disgusting Renee said, "it's probably the gel". I was angry by now and started taking it down to wash the gel out of my hair. I told her that I wanted a refund of my $80. She said they "don't give refunds". They fix it. I said I didn't have time to go back plus the stylist did not have the skills to French braid! After two days, I went to Essence of Hair where owner, Dionne, French braided my hair like I requested. I told Renee, and she said I was not the kind of customer they needed. She offered to refund $40. Look at the pictures. Would this be acceptable service for you?

I can see why this place has so many positive reviews. It was easy to book an appointment online, which is super helpful. The salon is small & intimate, and very comfy & clean. Renee had a few other clients, which is clearly why she changed my appt time, but she juggled us pretty well. I feel like Renee talked to me along the way, but I guess she wasn't fully hearing me. I had to do this review for anyone looking for a short cut (TWA) like mine. I was not happy. Having recently had a bad experience with a style I requested not coming out right, I made a point to be very clear with Renee about what I wanted. I even tried to tell her my hair woes, but she didn't seem to care much. My hair not only looks nothing like the picture I showed her, but the top of my hair was cut when I distinctly asked her twice not to do that, and the sides were barely cut at all until I asked her to shave more. I actually cried about the top of my hair because I wanted a fuller top, and I had recently gotten highlights that are now mostly gone. The pic I showed her had a full top and low cut sides, so imagine my confusion there. During the cut, I could feel the clippers nick my neck with every motion as she shaved DOWN the back of my head. I never had anyone shave my head in a downward motion, but I'm not the professional here. I didn't realize until days later that I have a burn and a thin scar going across the back of my neck. This was supposed to be my birthday/vacation hair and I walked out so upset. She didn't style it, which I did not expect so I also left looking incomplete. I didn't even see an option on the site for a style, so I didn't know I needed to add that. I asked questions before my appt, so it could have been a chance to clarify further, but nope. Many people asked me why I paid, especially when my top was cut. It's a great question, but I'm not confrontational and I knew I could rock it anyway; it's not like she could glue the hair back on. I wasn't trying to cause a scene and I tried to be optimistic, but the way the back of my neck looks right now is NOT OK. I'm not sure how I keep having people do my hair when they aren't sure what to do. When I spoke to Renee a couple days before my appointment I asked if I needed to tell her anything or show what I wanted, and she said "no," so I trusted her confidence, along with these glowing reviews. This conversation also could have been a chance to clarify that I wanted my hair styled, and she could have let me know to modify my request, but nope. I walked out the day of my birthday celebration with the wrong cut that wasn't even styled; just moussed. I won't be back.

Renee Hall at Naturaltrendzetters is absolutely fabulous!! A year ago my hair was cut in a tiny fro. My natural hair has grown past my shoulders. I always receive compliments on my styles. Excellent service-No waiting! I'm in Renee's chair upon arrival AND I GET HER UNDIVIDED ATTENTION!! I'm in and out in no time!! She is all about the business of healthy natural hair

Iesha ~ Natural Hair Specialist I am a first time customer. Iesha was a phenomenal stylist. She was very professional and skilled. She took the time to learn about some of my hair challenges I was experiencing and to learn about my hair goals. She made me feel very comfortable during my visit. She was very understanding concerning some of the hair damage I was experiencing. And asked if I needed a trim or any additional services to further care for my hair. Often times many salons will focus solely on hair styles - but it is nice to know I found a place that will also care for your natural hair. It has been a long time since I have allowed anyone to do my hair because of past bad experiences with stylists not truly knowing how to treat or do natural hairstyles. I believe I have found me a new Natural Hair Stylist. So glad my sister referred me to this location. I will gladly refer other naturals to Natural Trendzetter.

Amazing experience from start to finish, I'll never give another dollar to the African braiders....Thank God for Ms.Renee girl you rock!!!!

Shayla N.

I booked my appointment online. I arrived 30mins early bc I like to be on time and it was my first time. I selected the "Big Chop" package. Renee started on time and from start to finish she was professional. She washed, treated, cut, treated and style my little fro!! She explained to me how to treat and style my hair. She answered all my questions professionally. My experiences was amazing!! Her salon is beautiful! The atmosphere is very warm and pleasant. I would highly recommended her for your "Big Chop" bc that the only package I've experienced. Thank you Renee and Natural Trendsetters! !

So my husband and I moved here to Atlanta about a month ago. So finding a new hair stylist was one of the top priorities for me.I had been transitioning for about 8 months and I finally did the BIG CHOP Sep.24, 2014. One of the best things I have ever done in my life. I started searching and came across Renee and her salon Natural TrenzeyterAll I can say is this woman knows what she is doing hands down!!!! From the way she greeted me at the door,shampooing and conditioning my hair, and the styling. Renee gave good advice and her knowledge of hair and hair care far exceeded what I was expecting. You better believe I'm going back, I would be crazy NOT to.

Paid 4 goddess braids. Got this. No professional braiders. no return call to fix this mess.

I see that you state "no kids in salon" but do you perform services on children?

I'm thinking about booking an appointment for a flat twist out, its important to me that my hair is moisturized before twisting what products do you use for natural hair?

first time here, i kinda came in having a bunch of similar ideas, but not really knowing which…read morehairstyle in particular i wanted. dianna hooked me uppp-- she listened to what i was saying to get the vibe of what i wanted and then helped me ultimately choose. she was quick, professional, and friendly. and the rest of the staff were very nice and relaxed. ample street parking outside. price is reasonable (for dianna, i think she charged $50 or maybe $60 but it was really reasonable--- i'm used to paying $80-$100 for this kind of haircut). fyi, when u book an appointment over the phone, they ask u to put down a credit/debit card. highly recommend this place!

My stylist and hair services: I visited Heather at Salon Modello as a first-time client and Atlanta…read morenewbie. She was very patient with me and had some great ideas about what we could do with my hair -- mostly because I'm always kinda' like, meh, do whatever you think would look good. The color was nice. The cut was great. Heather is skilled, knows what she's doing, and really made me feel like I was in good hands. I think my cut was ~$80, and my color plus foils was ~$290 -- a little pricey but it's quality work. I'll be going back. The shop and atmosphere: The salon is filled with art for sale by local artists, which I really appreciate. There are also offerings of beer, wine, coffee, tea, and water for customers -- I mean, it doesn't get much better than that. In terms of parking, there are spots on the street nearby, but the salon also shares a small private lot with the business next door (facing the salon, it's the driveway to the right) which is a lifesaver, especially for that busy area of town. The receptionist and others stylists all seems friendly, hip, and chill -- in a relaxed way and not a douchey way. I can totally imagine folks of all ages feeling welcome there. Again, I'll be going back. The only slightly odd thing about my whole experience was that the salon keeps your credit or debit card info on file to hold you accountable for last-minute cancelations, those who are atrociously late, and whatnot. And I totally get it -- it's a business and stylists lose money when that kinda' thing happens (which I'm sure is annoyingly frequent). However, it was still weird to hand over my financial information for them to store. At least it makes paying easier at the end of the appointment. TL;DR: Heather is great, shop is nice, there's free beer and parking, don't no-show like a jerk.

I'm writing this review on behalf of my wife, who has seen Lauren Reyes Salon Master Stylist Austin…read moreHaynes for three visits now. We've both been very happy with the results. Thank you, Austin! This is a two-person salon with Lauren (owner) and Austin. When we moved back to Atlanta this past summer, my wife searched Yelp for a salon close to our home. She chose Lauren Reyes Salon based on their average Yelp rating, Yelp reviews, and what she saw on Lauren Reyes' Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/laurenreyessalon/ She liked what she saw. Lauren Reyes Salon is located inside Ansley Mall. The entrance is an interior entrance that does not face the parking lot. To find the salon, head towards the back of the mall's central courtyard. My wife likes to park on the CVS side of the mall because it's easier and less congested. Lauren and Austin have a room inside a shared salon space. My wife likes this place because it's easy to schedule an appointment, intimate, and convenient. She came here before getting her professional headshots and photos done at her new job. Austin did a great job. My wife also likes that Austin uses Davines products, the same high-end hair products that her previous salon, Rock Paper Scissors Salon in Durham, North Carolina, used. She paid $400, including a 25% tip, for her last cut and balayage.

I have been using Sen Salon for almost 2 years now. Switched cause I wanted to treat myself more…read moreand really see what a cut can make me feel. I heard from many locals that this is the place to get your hair cut done and done right. As an Asian Male, there is truly something unique about our hair. As long as you are flexible with anyone to cut your hair, then you can be seen ASAP. I always call beforehand and I always get to be seen same day within the next 2 hours. I only had two people cut my hair here, Michelle and Ken???? Ken is a new guy with dyed hair and speaks limited English. Michelle has been doing this for a while. I loved their old location but this new location definitely helps their salon shine. Lots of natural lighting and room for them to really allow an open space concept with seating throughout for others to see the magic happens. For the price of $28 before tip for a male's haircut, I think it is a fair price to ask in this economy and prime location. Hairwashing and shampoo is included for before and after the cut. Also if you want them to style your hair and prepare it for the day then that is also included with gel/wax/hair spray (your choice). Use cash if you can to avoid the 3% credit charge fee. Highly recommend this place. They will treat you well! Thank you Sen Salon for being you. Support this local one of a kind Asian business.

Been coming to Sen Salon for over a decade!…read more The only place I'd trust my hair with! Maria is my go-to gal! I come here, get an amazing shampoo/head massage experience to start, then a cut, followed by a blow dry and hair straightened! And it's reasonably priced!

I've recommended multiple ppl here and even my husband gets his hair cut here now! Highly recommend!!
