I stopped in here because it was relatively close to where I live, but also because my usual spot…read morewas closed so she could go home to visit family in Korea.
So, we knew about this spot, driving by Anjoo a lot on our way home from shopping in Duluth. Walked in on a Friday afternoon and 5 people were there and all busy at work. Still, they were able to accommodate my father and I.
Thuan Pletcher is the manager here and she had a spot open since I had my father go first opening. I got lucky because she knows what she's doing. We had a conversation about how I'd like my hair cut, what would look good, and the way she would get me in and out of the chair asap while making sure I was happy.
She's super personable, friendly, and funny too. We discussed my heritage and she was understanding of why I have my parents with me here in GA. Laughed at my jokes, which always is nice, .
I walked out of there and I was very pleased with the results. It's always a toss up when you go to a new spot, or even go to a place like great clips because chances are you're not going to be 100% happy with the results if you're not going to your usual stylist.
HOWEVER, I was jacked up in the best possible way. Just the way I needed the cut, the sides blended in nicely since it grows out sideways from the side of my head instead of down, with gravity. My bangs and top were cut enough to grow out by the time I head off on vacation and will be great for photos.
The cost is on the higher side, but when you're pleased with the results it feels like you're making a sports gamble/bet you know you'll win.
My father is loyal and may go back to the old barber, but she's elderly and may not be around long term. So I have a choice, which is never a bad thing- and it's so much closer than Duluth from Cumming.
Thank you Thuan for making me look and feel good! Hope to be back, but I wanted to tell people that this shop is there (hard to see since you're flying down Peachtree Industrial Blvd at speed) and you should want to visit Thuan P.
