Specialties
Hello and welcome! I’m Taylor Weatherford, the proud owner of Curls Gone Wild, a salon studio dedicated to curly hair.
From as far back as I can remember, salons have always sparked something in me. As a young girl, I was captivated by the stylists in all black, wielding shears with such skill, bold makeup, and even bolder hair. They were my superheroes, and I knew from early on that I wanted to be one of them.
After completing my Master of Cosmetology License in 2010 under the guidance of Kristin James—Atlanta’s Curly Guru and the creator of the C-Cut—I discovered what it takes to build a specialty in this industry. More importantly, I realized the responsibility and trust that comes with being a specialist.
My journey led me to a transformative class where I trained with Lorraine Massey, the founder of DevaCurl, creator of the Curly Girl Method, and author of the renowned Curly Girl book. This experience was pivotal, making me one of the first Deva Certified stylists in Georgia. Working alongside these leaders helped me refine my skills, and over the years, I’ve come to see that curly hair isn’t just my passion—it’s my purpose.
History
Established in 2023.
Did you know that, surprisingly, the art of curly hair is not part of the standard cosmetology curriculum in most states, including Georgia? When I learned this, I knew something needed to change. So in December 2023, I opened Curls Gone Wild Hair Studio to create a space where curly-haired individuals could feel truly understood and confident in their salon experience—without breaking the bank.
At Curls Gone Wild, our private, one-on-one setting allows you to relax and enjoy personalized care with a trusted, experienced curl specialist. Here, it’s all about you and your curls, ensuring that each appointment is fully dedicated to helping you embrace and love your natural hair.
