GiGi is truly talented, not only with a cut, but with complicated highlights. I lived in NYC before moving here and used the services of top salons - including Frederik Fekki, and I have found GiGi to be far more talented than those folks. She is amazing. I am so grateful I found her! I forgot to note: this is her own business and is certainly one that deserves your support. read more

Double crowns and a cowlick. Anyone who knows anything about hair cuts or styling knows these traits + short mens cuts = frustration. I cannot begin to tell you the number of times I have "settled" for a haircut or flat out grew my hair longer just to avoid having another bad experience. That is, until I sat in Georgina's chair and got the hands-down best stylist experience I have ever had. From the skills to the space and insistence on you leaving satisfied, your strands are safe in her hands. The Space Within a cozy business plaza just across from the theater on Newberry, Georgina's personal chair sits nestled inside a very clean, well-decorated shared space. The concept at this location is less "sea of cookie-cutter chairs, all side-by-side" and more "private, comfortable areas to just chat and relax". It is so private, in fact, that I do not see the faces of any other stylists who also work their magic while visiting, nor other patrons getting styled. Perhaps people-watchers like the communal approach, but I love this isolation. Getting your hair done is even more relaxing when other noise and chatter are gone, plus if you have been going to the same expert for years you are likely to want to catch up with them. The Service Let me start by saying I have not just gone "to the same place for years." I have been seeing the same PERSON for years (roughly 3 years I believe). Apart from her skills, which I will go into soon, Georgina is a genuinely thoughtful, patient person. She never fails to offer amenities for those who like a beverage or coffee to make their experience even more of a value, so keep that in mind if you are thinking of paying her a visit. For me, even before she took on her own space, it was clear she had incredible "chair-side manner" with her visitors. Effortless conversation if you are the type, but I imagine even those who are not chatty would feel comfortable relaxing quietly while getting spruced up. The Styles Did I mention the double crowns and cowlick? Having had such troublesome experiences with chains and other alternatives, I asked a friend who styled hair if she would take me on. Her response (approximately): "I honestly am not as strong at men's cuts as Georgina. She's a rockstar and you should seriously book her." I did just that, and she was not wrong. I sat down, expressed my woes of the past: lop-sided, off-kilter, unruly, etc. Georgina heard me and, in a flash, turned those fears into a clean, slick, downright fly-AF haircut I was proud to walk away sporting. I even managed to convince my girlfriend to see her and she was extremely attached to an out-of-town stylist -- and she loved her 'do too! Final Thoughts At the risk of making Georgina too busy to ever see me again, I encourage anyone looking for a long-term, careful stylist to book her ASAP. Her work speaks for itself in pictures, but as someone looking to just get a decent haircut against the odds of my genetic traits, I am telling you she can make magic happen. read more

I think the other reviews summarize Georgina, her salon, and her skills very nicely. She does a great job, listens, and doesn't push her own opinion on you but will gladly provide some input if you need it. I'm often pretty quiet when I'm getting my hair done and she does not unnecessarily force conversation for its own sake, which is always appreciated. I originally went to her at a salon, she moved and I followed, and then she decided to start her own thing and I stuck with her. Not sure quite how long it has been, but no plan to look elsewhere while I'm in Gainesville. read more

Absolutely, hands down the best colorist/stylist I've ever had completely professional, listened to me, interpreted what I was trying to tell her, and went on to make my color/cut amazing. read more

Georgina is absolutely amazing. I'm new to Gainesville and my bleached blonde hair needed to return to its normal brunette color very badly. I'm so glad I read the Yelp reviews and found her. I did a consultation first and she was super helpful and didn't make me feel badly at all for wanting to bleach my hair in the first place. She took her time going over all my options until I decided on one and went back the next day to get my hair colored. I was literally in awe my hair looked better than it ever had. I can't wait to go back in a few weeks to get it retouched and I'll probably even let her dye part of it pink. Definitely go see her, you won't regret it!!!! read more

Georgina was extremely professional and knowledgeable. Her office is very clean and she provides WiFi in case you need to catch up on emails or work. She actively listened to what my issues were as I had been trying for quite some time to dye my hair an ice white when I am naturally a brunette. She made me feel very comfortable during both my visits and is meticulous with her work. You can really tell that Georgina loves what she does and seeks to deliver the best results possible. I would definitely recommend her! read more
