Spent $300 on a cut & color here and left with horizontal striped highlights when I pull my hair back. I called in, they said you were here 9 days ago?! As if that was a while ago....Yes, I went to FL with my family for the week hoping it would wash out, but it didn't. Definitely won't be coming back! Also the back room with the dryers smells like dog, so idk if they have dogs back there, but it smelt foul. read more

I started going to Studio 93 over 3 years ago at the recommendation of my daughter-in-law. She had been seeing Alex and so I started seeing Alex as well. She is fantastic! She always listens to what I want then gives me what I ask for. I love her! There are lots of stylists who work there and they are always in a good mood so the atmosphere is great. You should give them a try! read more

First visit was great, expensive 288.00 before tip, but I got what I asked for. Second visit was terrible. Same stylist, rushed job. No highlights at all framing my face or the back. Base way too dark which just made it look worse. Needless to say, my hair stayed down to cover the mess underneath. Price was 277.00. Definitely not worth it. Just a few doors down at studio 93, they fixed the color and price was much cheaper. Would have only given one star, but the first visit, she wasn't in a hurry to leave and she did a great job. It's apparent, clients are not the main priority here. read more

Stylists take the time to listen to what you want in a consultation before you get anything done. The color they use is very healthy for your hair , and mine has always come out exactly as I've asked. I drive from south Ga. just to have my hair colored & cut here because it's such a high quality establishment. read more

Such a shame. After three tries, I am done with Advanced Coloration. PROS - Awesome talent. I have been to both Leah and Megan I absolutely love their highlights and Leah's haircuts. - The color product is great, low ammonia and it lasts! CONS - Two of the three times, the ladies have been late (not just backed up with clients late, but arriving to work late while I wait for them to show up). - The check-in is in the back of the salon and they always clueless as to why I am there. - The salon is absolutely filthy. Caked on dust, dirty mirrors, paint chipped stations, and the hair... it is on the chairs, all over the floor, in the mirror frames...everywhere! Both times I have had my highlights done, the smocks have been dirty (hair, smell of perfume from past clients). Oh, and the waiting area sofas -ugh! - They charge $35 to dry your hair after you've paid full price for highlights. Yes, I said DRY your hair. They said it was a "blow-out". I am not sure what that means, but where I come from, we call it "drying your hair" and we would respect our customers enough to tell them before we charged them $35 to dry their hair. Final Note: I find it interesting that several of the positive reviews are from reviewers with only 1 review, all use the same phrase, "love, love, love" and are riddled with capital letters. It seems as if someone is writing reviews and trying to stack the ratings in their favor. read more

I absolutely LOVE this salon. It's always clean and such a warm environment. Whitley does my hair always. I highly recommend her. She's taken me from pink to ice blonde to purple to fuschia to blonde again! I have always hated getting my hair done because no one actually listens to what you want they just do whatever they think lol. I have only ever left this salon happy!! read more

This salon is EVERYTHING I've been looking for. Amazing color line that has allowed my platinum blonde to stay healthy and NOT YELLOW. Beautiful building, amazing stylists, and the best hair care I've ever received! Sonia is the absolute BEST. read more

This salon is by far the best one I've EVER been to. Every single person who works there makes you feel like family the second you walk in the door. I usually have to take my 10 month old with me and the girls never fail to step in and help me out. I always leave feeling beautiful and Whitley takes the time to listen to what her clients want, rather than telling them what they need. She is THE best!!! Regardless of who's chair you sit in, you will be beyond thrilled with your hair! read more

Just got my hair done there for the first time. Rena colored and cut it and did an amazing job! I usually get highlights and color and wanted to go for a more natural look with the highlights blending into my natural color. She listened to my poor explanation of what I wanted and asked questions to make sure she gets it right. The end result turned out even better than I expected! I absolutely love it! read more

Advanced Coloration Salon - Beautiful job done by Rena - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Buford, Georgia

Definitely not worth it! My hair is curly and I came in for a root touch up and hair cut with blow drying. The lady that I had ruined my hair giving me a darker root color than what I had and highlights that in some areas where white. Instead of blow drying my hair, she used a straighter which then made my hair feel like straw. I lasted three days with that horrible color and I colored it myself. The haircut was shorter than I asked for too. Very horrible experience and don't recommend. Oh and the price was approx $175. Not worth it. read more

This is a fabulous salon located in an old bank! With the vaults still in tact! Not only is the building super cool and historical, the color service and ambiance is top notch. Everyone seems to have a passion for hair and the 5 different stylists (all still there) I've seen over the past 6 years have provided useful consultations, maintenance tips, and the healthiest hair I've ever had! Elita- does THE BEST updos. Her color melting is so dimensional. Meagan has a serious knack for my blonde highlights. Brittany and Bailey knock out fashion colors, trendy cuts, and always inspire me to try something new! And Sonia is all of that wrapped in to one! She has the best personality, genuinely cares for her clients, and makes me feel like a 10 when I leave the salon! The color line they use is one of a kind and for once my hair doesn't feel brittle after lightening it! It is super shiny! read more

Went to get my consultation today with Bailey and she had actually scheduled a full appointment so she had time to do what I wanted! Let me just say, although the price is pretty up there, I am more than satisfied with the results of my hair. I am definitely a girl on a budget, but to say this was worth the splurge is an understatement. I got 175$ worth of color done to my hair and Bailey couldn't have done a better job! The overall experience was amazing. They offer you something to drink throughout your appointment and the environment in there feels like family. I don't know that I'd trust any other salon going forward. All being said though, I will say that I wish I would've been given fair warning about how much my color job was going to be. Had I known what the price tag was gonna look like, I would've tried to work more with what my budget allows. But nonetheless, I will most definitely recommend this place to friends and family and will be back for myself! read more

"Beginner Coloration" would be a more accurate name for this salon. After reading the positive reviews for this salon, I felt confident that I would have a great experience here. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I came in for a color glaze before a formal event and was terribly disappointed. I asked for a soft, medium brown color and came out with Amy Winehouse jet-black hair. The girl doing my hair FORGOT me in the shampoo bowl and I had to ask another stylist to track her down because I could see that my hair was many shades too dark. After this (and no apology), the stylist asked if I would like my hair dried. I had no intentions of leaving the salon with dripping wet, black hair, but I wish I had. The stylist did not inform me that blow drying my hair would add an additional $35 to my bill. Instead of paying the $35 listed on the service menu for the color glaze, I was charged $70 (I was so upset, embarrassed, and ready to leave that I paid in full AND left a tip without disputing anything). To top it off, I had color all over my face that the stylist told me to "just use some coconut oil on." (which did not work - I had to wear heavy makeup for several days to cover the black streaks.) I left in tears because my hair was not anywhere close to what I asked for, I felt that the service was neglectful, and I was grossly overcharged. If you care about how your hair looks and if you want to be treated kindly at a salon, do not come here. read more
