    Urban Twists twist-out done a week later (after washing and drying hair)
    Tasaday L.

    I visited the salon almost two weeks ago and wanted to wait some time before writing a review (since many reviewers seemed to have had issues with hair extensions falling out). I still haven't had issues with my Urban Twists coming undone or slipping out and I was able to sleep on my twist-out without redoing them the following days. I was recommened by a friend about a month ago and wanted a hair protective style that would last longer than box braids (since I'm natural and my kinks seem to escape the enclosure of braids quite easily). I was very impressed with the salon from the beginning when I called to make my appointment. The "receptionist" was surprisingly understanding of my indecisiveness and scheduled me in for their most lengthy style since I wasn't sure what I liked most. The only drawback was paying a $50 deposit upfront but it goes towards any hair service you choose. When arriving to the shop I was greeted by six happy, energetic employees and was given a questionnaire to complete on an iPad followed by a consultation with my stylist. Afterwards, I was given a light breakfast (croissant and fruit on a small plate drizzled with dark chocolate) with a drink. I was so impressed right off the bat because of their excellent customer service and the eclectic decor of the shop. The only downside to my hair service, which began rather promptly, was dealing with the hyperactiveness of my stylist who broke for a second to twerk to some music video. Honestly, it wasn't an issue because I couldn't imagine standing for four hours straight and I had two women braiding/twisting my hair the majority of the time. At first glance of my completed Urban Twists I was thinking "WTF, my hair looks like it was plaited by a six year old" but my stylist assured me that it would look cuter after I did a twist out (a week later since it takes that long for it to really set). She was definitely correct and I was so glad that she showed me how to create multiple styles in the meantime. I left with a really trendy updo with a few pieces left out as long side bangs. I'm still trying to justify paying $250 for Urban Twists that are merely semi-synthetic hair braided 2-3 inch long then twisted. At another salon, I had medium sized mid back length box braids installed for $50 less than the price of Urban Twists. But maybe you're paying for the d*** cool salon name. Eitherway, I'll leave it up to others to determine if it's worth the price.

    Breakfast!  How neat...so hospitable!!

    I LOOOOVED my experience at The Damn Salon! I was beyond stoked to get my hair done by them. I'd first gained knowledge of the salon through the reality show, "Cutting It Up in the ATL." I loved the way Mushiya remained poised on the show and the fact that she owned an all-natural salon. While planning a visit to Atlanta from Louisiana, I knew I had to have my hair done there! I got the Urban Twists. The install was quick and painless. Really...there was no pulling, no uncomfortable bumps to develop in the kitchen, no scratchy synthetic feel of the hair on my face, and no regret from getting them - thinking, "now I have to wait weeks for them to loosen up and become malleable." They were instantly beautiful, soft, natural-looking, and comfortable. Styling options are plentiful, from funky to classic to corporate in less than 2 minutes! I'm so happy I made the decision to get "damned!" I've found my salon of choice, albeit 500 miles away; but definitely worth the trip! Also during my visit, I partook in wine and breakfast! How hospitable! Now, where they do that at??!!

    I have been a customer for over 10 years and haven't had a bad experience yet. I used to be local but now that I live in the midwest, whenever I'm in town I make sure to get an appointment for the city twists or something similar. They never style my hair too tight, meaning my scalp is at ease. I never have breakage after. I've had several bad experiences at other salons from breakage, tension issues to just boring looks but NOT here. It's just fabulous. I always get versatile style that's lasts in my hair for a good while, and it looks great either up or down. Sophia did my hair this time around and she was great and professional. I love how she blended the colors I wanted. It's great to know that their quality has remained consistent for over a decade!

    Custom unit at the DAMN SALON with Vivica Fox tags! Charged me $416 and then refused to give me a refund #Shameful workmanship!

    Don't walk...........RUN away from this salon!! As usual I try to give a business several attempts to correct errors before I write a low review and this one just could NOT make the mark. First....... They are VERY unorganized! No two people in their organization are on the same page. Also when it comes to the financial aspect of it, they have some shady business practices. They know they aren't delivering a quality product which is why they behave poorly. Also they no longer have an actual salon so they are working out of a barber shop. On one occasion I had an appointment to get a hair color. I thought this would be simple enough, however they didn't have a shampoo station in the barber shop. Therefore I had to forego my appointment and come back another day when they had a shampoo station installed. That's such poor business. I had to rearrange my whole schedule to compensate and wasn't given any formal apology or even a discount for the inconvenience. Alone..........That should have made me turn around and go running..... but I wanted to give the benefit of the doubt. But I couldn't wrap my brain around the question of "How does a company legitimately take appointments that need a shampoo station and know good and well they don't have one installed?!" And this appointment was on the books several days before I got there! How could you NOT have that prepared?! But I still wanted to give them a shot. Finally after I sat for my appointment for a simple hair color I was there for SIX HOURS!! The girl had to keep on going to the beauty supply store and because of the delay in time my hair color was messed up. And then she tried to keep fixing it. Finally I just told her I needed to leave and she put my hair in a bun. Then when it was all said and done I paid over $200!! But I left it alone and just sulked. What I didn't know at the time though was that my sister had created an appointment to get her hair colored a few days after me and disturbingly she encountered a similar experience! That alone should have made me run but I just kept on trying.....why I don't know. So I decided to purchase one of their wig units as a gift for my aunt and it was a NIGHTMARE! The item that I wanted was a display unit and as such I paid for the display unit ($416). Instead they created a custom unit and attempted to persuade me that this was a better option and shipped it to my aunt. When my aunt received it she was rightfully disappointed. The "CUSTOM" unit was poorly constructed! THEY EVEN LEFT THE "Vivica Fox" TAG ON IT!! When my aunt got the wig and FaceTimed me, it looked like a Bozo the Clown wig that weighed about 10 pounds. I had my aunt ship it to me and I took it back to the salon. When I got there, THEIR OWN STYLIST THOUGHT IT WAS TERRIBLE. It looked ridiculous and I couldn't see any person wanting to adorn themselves with this unit. And then when I just said forget it let's just cut ties and return it....... they fought tooth and nail stating that they don't give refunds. An experience which was meant to support a growing business while also getting something nice for my aunt to make her feel pretty, turned out to be a NIGHTMARE. If I could give ZERO stars I would. I should have read previous reviews to know better! CAVEAT EMPTOR!

    First and foremost all I can say is Wow! I love The Damn Salon! Sophia my hair stylist is so very friendly and made sure I was comfortable ! I was also greeted by the owner Mushiya very professional and friendly! I enjoyed the Ambiance of The Damn Salon because its inside of The Runway Suites which actually has 2 runways that you have to walk down or strut down to get to your destination! Can I just say I Love my Damn Hair! The color I chose is on point for my complexion! The Entire staff are very accommodating making sure all your concerns are addressed! Sophia teaches you how to maintain your hair also! When you call The Damn Salon it's just a great feeling they make you feel like a Queen over the phone and online. Kanko and Latosha have a special innate skills in order to pull this off! There are a lot of hair stylist that install hair braids twist! You should always treat your self to those who are the best at what they do! Why buy a knock off Hermes bag when you can buy the real thing! You get what you pay for! Go get Damned! It's worth it! Oh Did I mentioned the many compliments I received from men & women! They were falling in Love with my new hair! This hair does something and makes people Horny!!! No joke!

    When I tell you this was by far one of the GREATEST salon experiences I have ever had! Everyone was extremely professional and made absolute certain that all my questions regarding hairstyle, color etc. were answered! Okay now let's get to the greatest thing...Mushyia and her team are freaking amazing! There were two stylist on my hair (Mushyia and Sophia) creating my City Twist. While getting my twist I was served food and beverages all while being complimented on my hair texture. This was not just an ordinary hair appointment it was an EXPERIENCE! Great conversation, lunch and a DAMN fabulous hairstyle!

    I was extremely skeptical about going here based on the reviews I read beforehand. However, I was very pleased with how Sophia did my hair and how management walked me through the process. The barber shop is nothing fancy (but temporary from what I'm told) . They have the very best hair I've ever had installed and you won't leave with your head hurting from the braids being too tight. It's super soft and light weight. I'll definitely be back to see Sophia

I was so nervous because I've had such bad experiences at other salons (even a big name salon). She was so welcoming and really listened to what I wanted. I did show her some inspo fotos. I felt very comfortable after our consultation. She was very meticulous with her work. She took her time and demonstrated precision and patience (she is a perfectionist). Fast-forward to the end, I was so happy. My hair looked so much healthier and she literally did exactly what I wanted. I have been back since then, and will continue to go back as long as she will keep me as a client. I took my mother-in law to Aisha when she came to visit (she was having issues at other salons as well) and was absolutely amazed. She now gets her hair cut with Aisha when she is visiting from Little Rock. I would love to gate-keep her but it would be so unfair. She's so talented and kind. Book with her and you won't be disappointed.

    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.
