I went to Plum Salon today for a haircut and had an appointment with Rita. I was upfront that I have a regular hairstylist I go to, but she was out of town and I needed to get a haircut in. Rita was incredibly understanding and welcoming from the start. Even knowing this could possibly be my only time there, she still took the time to listen to what I wanted, offered helpful feedback, discussed style options, and gave me an amazing haircut! Beyond her expertise, Rita's kindness and professionalism really stood out. I had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented and thoughtful stylist. The salon itself is beautiful, very clean, nicely styled, and has a great overall feel. read more

Chill vibe - Rachel is an amazing stylist - she just knows what works with my hair! Totally recommend Plum Salon - everyone seems so incredibly nice there read more

Are you looking a stylist who: - Gives a great razor cut - Gets paid $299 for a cut and color - Screws up your color and does not correct it - Takes no accountability - Does not apologize - Suggests you see someone else in the future ie; fires you as a client because you dare to directly address the issues - And bizarrely calls you, a complete stranger, "my love" at least 5 times during your appointment... Then I have the stylist for you. Go see Annie. read more

I am so thrilled I found this salon! It is open and bright with a warm vibe. Every stylist and staff member greets you when you come in. Coffee and beverages offered as you wait just two minutes before your appointment begins on time. Olivia is outstanding! Cute, young and so amazing at helping this tired mom find a style again. She listens to your likes and concerns and incorporates those into her suggestions built on experience and love. Adore her! call and book her now you I am confident you will be thrilled! read more

Probably the worst blowout I've received in my life. After Riley cancelled my appointment because of an illness, I rescheduled with Jessi and assumed since with her a blowout was $15 more expensive, that she knew what she was doing. Instead, she gave me the opposite of what I asked for- I asked for volume at the top, and bouncy, round-brush waves/curls. I should've known when she was blow drying my hair from TOP TO BOTTOM that she didn't have a clue what she was doing. I walked out of the salon looking like Wednesday Adams...zero volume, not one curl or wave, just a flat mop of hair. So disappointing- I could've done a better job myself at home and saved the time, money, stress, and disappointment. I won't be returning. read more

Very disappointed Paid 56 dollars for two child hair cuts.... I've usually taken my children to Great Clips. But thought to try a "Professional" hair salon. I was disappointed with my own hair cut. But I gave Bri the benefit of the doubt cause I do have curly hair. But I now have to go have my girls hair recut. This is what we showed her (her pervious hair cut that was done at great clips) VS. what we got. read more

Very unprofessional and poor customer handling. Very disappointed they way they handled my appointment. I went to the store to make my first appointment ever. First they booked my appointment at 12:30. I even have a note. I did not get any confirmation or reminder on my phone. On the day of appointment they called me at 11:45 saying your appointment was at 11:30 and not 12:30. I told them that I can still be there in 5 mins since I live in neighborhood but boy they refused to accommodate. First they mis booked and What is the point of calling me when they could not accommodate leaving a very bitter taste. read more

One word: WINE. I wasn't even there for a cut; my partner was. But I still got a nice, big glass of chilled Chardonnay. Please and thank you! Also, stylist Elli is incredibly sweet and talented! Plentiful parking, right by Starbucks, cute shops and restaurants a few steps away, barely OTP. I'll definitely be back again! read more

Loved this salon! Just what I needed! I am from out of town and was so hesitant going here and trying a new hairdresser. But they all made me feel very welcomed! read more

If you want Instagram worthy hair then in highly recommend going to Plum Salon. From beach waves to balayage the stylists here can make any hair wish come true. Located in the West Village market area, there is plenty of parking and it is easy to find. Not pretentious at all, they are welcoming and I felt relaxed and well take care of. Cami Cakes is just a few doors down so you can treat yourself after getting pampered. read more

Plum Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Smyrna, Georgia

I love Plum Salon. I have never had a "home" salon - just going where ever on a whim to get my hair done. Now I not only go there regularly to get my hair cut and dyed, but I will recommend the salon and especially Hailey to anyone who asks. The staff is great. Very nice, very attentive. The salon has always been really clean and comfortable. read more

I usually drive into Atlanta to get my hair cut but wanted to find somewhere close to home instead. I tried Plum Salon three times with two different stylists and really wanted to like this place, but I just haven't had the experience I want for the price I pay for a hair cut here. -It's so hard to breathe because of all of the hair processing chemicals in the air-I expect a salon to have a certain smell, but this place is pretty bad. -The receptionist asked if I wanted a drink, which I did ask for but she never actually got it for me. -The first stylist I had was Brianna and she took so long to dry my hair I left there dripping in sweat and the cut wasn't great, which is why I wanted to try a different stylist next time. -I chose Lauren and the first cut was decent but nothing spectacular. I booked with Lauren a second time because I really wanted to make this salon work for me. The second time she washed, cut and dried my hair in 30 minutes, which in my opinion is not a good thing. She rushed through it and when I got home and ran my fingers through my hair, I found patches of hair that she completely missed and I had to cut myself since we were going out of town for the holiday. Not exactly the cut I was looking to have in our family photos, especially for what they charge at this salon. I'll be looking elsewhere for a better salon. I've had much better experiences in the past for the same price and will keep searching until I find a salon/stylist worth the price. read more

Go to Plum Salon and ask for Cat. She is the best stylist in the world. I miss her dearly since I moved away from Atlanta...she has done my highlights and cut for years and is the only person who knows what to do with my hair to make it look fabulous. I love her to death and try to book an appointment with her whenever I'm in town. Not only does Cat work magic with a hairstyle, she is also such a genuine, cool person and I think anyone would want to be her friend. The salon itself is loads of fun, it's beautiful, and filled with upbeat people and great music. Oh, and any of the stylists will be happy to bring you a beverage to make your experience most enjoyable! Plum Salon rocks. read more

I get my hair done A LOT. I have had it blonde, blonde with blue and purple streaks, blonde with green streaks, blonde with hot pink, red, fire engine red, burgendy/auburn brown, brown with blonde highlights, black with blonde highlights, black and purple highlights....needless to say, I play with my hair a lot. I've had my hair done in lots of cities...NYC/NYC metro area, Washington DC/DC metro area, Miami, Atlanta, etc.......Michelle at Plum Salon is my favorite stylists out of everyone (Sorry David!) She is well trained, thoughtful, honest, and has the skills to pay the bills. She listens to what I want, she will tell me honestly if she thinks I can pull it off, and if I don't like it, she offers to fix it for free. She has done wonders for my hair color. I have a number of friends who also go to Michelle, both men and women who will drive from Decatur, GA/Kennesaw GA to see Michelle!! I have a buddy that comes from Europe as well, now talk about not giving up your stylist! Michelle is truly an amazing stylist. I HAVE NEVER BEEN DISSATISFIED with Michelle's service. When I meet Michelle I was flying back to Washington DC every 6 weeks to get my hair done (I know, I know, CrAzY, but girls love their stylists and it's hard to find good ones these days, well look no more!) Michelle told me the first time I sat in her chair, if what I am doing does not work for you that is ok, you have to be comfortable with your stylist, you won't offend me if you like someone else work better. She is simply great. Now that I'm back in DC I miss Michelle, but I've given Delta Airlines too much of my savings already, so back to Jon David Salon in VA I go :) To Sandra S review, African American hair is called "Ethnic hair" that is what it's called at beauty school, and that is what it's called in professional salons. If you were happy with the end result, it's sad to loose a good stylist over a misunderstanding! read more

I went to Plum for the first time to get balayage highlights! Hailey was phenomenal from start to finish! It was my first time getting highlights and she made me feel really comfortable by explaining every step she was taking. She took the time to discuss what would look great on me and really worked with me to find the style that would best suit me. She is very talented and I'm glad my friend recommended her to me! As for the overall experience - I was promptly greeted for my appointment, offered a beverage when I walked in, and was surrounded by the friendly staff! Overall, I highly recommend the salon!! read more

We have been customers at Plum for a couple of years now and the stylists, cut and color work are fantastic. A great salon for Smyrna - it's wonderful not to have to travel into Atlanta for an upscale cut and color. Marnie cares a great deal about her clients and you can ask for her to be your stylist as well. read more

Very nice salon, good vibes and chill atmosphere. Book with Brianna! She did a wonderful job matching my grown out copper/red hair. My roots are in love . Will be back in 5 weeks for my touch up since I don't like any root showing. I like to pretend I'm a natural redhead . Price was a steal for the service received. read more

They were able to squeeze me in for an appointment on short notice, but other than that, the hair appointment itself was the most uncomfortable I've ever had. Usually you enjoy the hair washing experience the most when you go for a hair appointment, but it was not enjoyable at all. The chairs are not high enough for the sinks it seems because my neck was strained the whole time and there was no way to adjust. After that was done with, the woman cutting my hair (can't remember her name but she is apparently the most experienced/expensive) told me to stand up so she could cut it to the right length since it was too long for her to cut while I was sitting down (my hair was maybe 14" long or so at that point, so not super long). I then was able to sit and she proceeded in adding layers to my hair like I asked, or so I thought. She then dried my hair with the blow dryer, brushing my hair in front of my face the whole time so I was suffocating under my own hair for about 10 minutes straight. Once she was all done, my hair did look decent, I'll admit. But when I got home and analyzed it a bit more, the layers I had requested were almost non-existent and the ends were not blended or textured in any way. So I basically was out $60 for an uncomfortable experience and hair that looked pretty much the same as when I went in. I have honestly had better experiences at Great Clips back when I was a broke college kid. Needless to say, I will not be going back here again. read more

As I have recently relocated from Chicago, finding a hair salon that I trusted with my cut and color, was a top priority. After reading plenty of reviews, I decided to try Plum Salon, as the reviews were great and the location was close to home. I was not disappointed! I booked with Brianna, and I loved my cut and color; it's like I didn't miss a beat. The location is great, ample parking (near the parking garage if no street parking is available), and they have a friendly staff who appreciates your business. I am glad I found my new salon home so fast! read more

Haylee is is life!!!! She gave life to my hair shes a wonderful person and the best hair dresser on the planet. She squeezed me in because my grandpa died suddenly and his funeral was on my appointment date she got me in sooner. She wouldn't do anything harmful to your hair shes amazing. read more

I absolutely love this place and my stylist, Hailey!! She is amazing at what she does. I can't praise her enough for her professionalism and work! She has been cutting my hair for almost a year now and I never leave this place disappointed. Hailey gives great hair care advice and knows exactly what I want and need at every appointment. She recently did a balayage and I'm so in love with it!! I definitely recommend Hailey to all. read more

So I've been to Plum Salon 6 times in the last year. The 1st hair cut was amazing and (up until last weekend) the rest just kind of so-so. While watching the stylists work I always wonder at this if they understood what I was requesting, which is always the same. Blunt bangs with face framing and just a trim on the rest. Typically it turned out similar to what I imagined but always missing something. Hence the so-so. The main reason is that I have been going for so long is that they are less than 2 minutes from my house. Well, I am on the hunt for a new salon... I booked an appointment with Ben online for 10:15am. I showed up a few minutes prior and advised the receptionist, that I was Robin here for Ben. She looked up startled from her phone and asked if I would like to put on a smock. I did, and then proceeded to wait in their little lobby. No one came to get me, at 10:30 a woman stylist came up to me and said "I'll be with you in one moment, do you need anything while you wait" I was a bit confused and said Ok. After she walked away I went to the receptionist's desk and stated that was not the stylist I made the appt with and was the new stylist going to be an extra cost. The receptionist looked confused, looked at her computer, and then stated "oh, I thought you wanted to talk to our stylist Robin not that you are Robin. No wonder, we were all confused." I understand that people make mistakes and that this is a small one....but a receptionist literally HAS ONE JOB TO DO. And at that she failed. I hope whatever was happening in her phone offered her more entertainment than what she is being paid to do. On to Ben. Another 5 minutes of waiting and Ben called me back. He asked me what I would like to do today. I told him that I had Bangs but they had grown down past my eyes in an attempt to grow them out. But at this point I was going to cut them and try on growing them out after the holidays. Then he starting talking about are they swoopy bang, or blunt swoopy or whispy swoopy. I told him I didn't know what that meant and he showed with the hair that was there what the term swoopy apparently means (pointing in one direction over another). Anyways I told him no, that I wanted just straight blunt bangs but gave him permission to add layers to my hair. I thought we were on the same page. While he was cutting I must have given him some quizzical looks, because he ended up turning my chair with my back to the mirror where he kept the entire time. When he turned me around I noticed something didn't look right but couldn't put my finger on it. He added some last minute face framing and sent me on my way without letting me see the back in a mirror. Couldn't say I was too disappointed about the lack of views... Ben had been working up a sweat on the cut and was getting a little stinky. So Hours later I have to get ready to go out to dinner... my birthday dinner with friends... I go to redo what's fallen out of place and specifically to redo my bangs. Low and behold I found out what was wrong.... I'm curious to find out in what world straight Blunt Bangs means cut one side a 3/4s of an inch shorter than the other and have the shortest part not centered over your nose but over your right eye...... In order for me not to look like my 6 year old nephew cut my hair I had to do my own snips to it before I left the house. So thanks for nothing but wasting my time and money Plum Salon. read more

I recently moved to the area and needed to get my highlights updated immediately. I searched online for salons near my new home and found these reveiws of Plum Salon - especially Cat Martin at Plum Salon - and decided to schedule an appointment. The salon is adorable. Cat is awesome! All in all a great experience. She was able to correct a previous highlight that was too light for what I was looking for and everything looks great. I will definitely go back and recommend anyone else to try this salon. read more

Marnie is the only person who will ever touch my hair! My mane is a piece of work and she managed to strip years of abuse and black dye from my hair and left me with a beautiful cut and color. My hair is now much healthier thanks to her advice and a few Bumble and Bumble products! Did I mention you can enjoy a nice glass of wine while you're there?? read more

I'm in LOVE with this place!! I'm never going anywhere else again! Liz will forever be my stylist. She listened to what I wanted and delivered. I had bleached my hair platinum blonde for summer and now wanted to go back to a more natural look while my roots grow out. I couldn't of asked for better results! PEFECT! Plus, I wasn't overcharged! I'm so happy and will recommend this salon to everyone!! read more

Because of all the good reviews this salon gets I decided to give them a try so I booked a balayage with Brianna. I have very long dark hair and showed her pictures of what I wanted. After she was "finished" my hair looked exactly the same. The color did not change AT ALL. She avoided eye contact and had no problem charging me $110. I was in a hurry and didn't argue for another appointment like I should have. I know that other salons offer other appointments or a refund when customers are not happy but she just wanted me to pay and get out of there. Maybe I had back luck and she's good at what she does but her unprofessional behavior left me with a bad impression of the salon and I'm not planning on going there again. read more

I have been coming here since they opened. I get compliments on my hair all the time! My stylist is great, she listens to me and makes good suggestions. The salon is very cool, and I love the complimentary soda or wine. If you want a modern salon with up to date stylists, this is your place! read more

Honestly love this place and the workers! Amazing service, products, and prices! My hairstylist is Hannah & I highly recommend the place to anyone and everyone who loves the expensive experience without the expensive price! read more

I have been getting my hair done by Robin for years - she is absolutely amazing! I always leave with a great cut and color and a huge smile on my face!!! read more

I live in the apartments that are in the Highlands so I figured I would try the salon because it's right here. I'd come here even if I lived miles away! I have had Ellie cut and color my hair for months now. She has managed to find the perfect highlights and low lights, and my hair (long, thick) has never looked better. I'm a big fan. read more

I had Lauren do my hair. I do pixie cuts and she did an amazing job! The customer service was great and I would recommend this place to anyone! read more

Plum contacted me and offered Robin as a stylist for me to try that is most likely suited to my preferences from a stylist. I just got my hair done elsewhere when I went out of town so I won't need services anytime too soon. I'm not certain what I'll do next. read more

I love this Salon. Beautiful, clean and the staff is all friendly and professional. Liz is my favorite, she is so talented, works fast (so you aren't there all day) and is affordable. I even took my 13 month old there for her hair cut :) read more

Beautiful salon. Great stylists, comfortable, relaxing atmosphere. Cat Martin is a terrific stylist. She is excellent with color and cut. I highly recommend this salon. read more

This place is the bomb. Elli always goes above and beyond and leaves me looking fantastic. The rest of the staff is attentive and responsive. The very relaxed atmosphere is such an oasis from the crazy busy lifestyle I lead. Just be careful, once you start going, you won't go anywhere else! read more

I've been seeing Elli for a few years now and always get great results. She is always helpful with her advice and the execution is excellent. Her suggestions are always spot-on and the times when I've come in with a photo or an idea of something new to do, she can speak thoughtfully about what would work with with my hair type, face shape, my lifestyle, and the amount of work and maintenance required. The other staff I've interacted with at Plum have always been helpful, too. The location is great, too - grab a Starbucks, get my hair cut, then go shopping with my fab cut! read more

I was a first time customer. The hair stylist that cut my hair left a very visible line around my head (bowl cut look). The following day I called back in to the salon to schedule a time I could come back in and get a "touch up". They only had ONE time slot available to "work me in" over the next four days. My schedule didn't work for that one specific time slot. This seemed VERY unaccommodating in my opinion. I went as far as to email the owners regarding my issue, but I never heard anything back. read more

Got my hair cut and colored by Hailey and she did an awesome job. I wanted a very specific tone of purple ombre and she totally nailed it! Also not as pricey as most salons in ATL. read more
