This review is about a year late, but I was just reminded about my experience when I went to get my…read morehaircut at a different salon the other day. I've had a couple issues here with stylists being rude or not friendly. Last time I went to this salon, the person who cut my hair was super kind, but we did a balayage on my curly hair, and unfortunately, it created severe damage and my hair start to fall out. It damaged all of my hair so much that I've never been able to get it back to normal. I recently went to a different salon to get my haircut and we ended up chopping off about 6 inches of my hair because it was not fixable. I don't think I would recommend this salon unfortunately because of that and because my prior experiences were not so great with the general vibe.

Worth the 4-Hour Drive!…read more I recently found myself unable to visit my usual stylist in NJ, so I decided to make a 4-hour drive to see DiDi after being impressed by her educational social media posts. From the moment I arrived, DiDi addressed all my concerns with exceptional knowledge and kindness, much like my trusted stylist back home. I absolutely LOVE my new cut and styling! DiDi's expertise truly shines, and I wouldn't hesitate to book another appointment whenever I'm in the ATL area. The salon itself is immaculate, and it's evident that the team works harmoniously. Every client was greeted warmly, which, in my opinion, is a hallmark of excellent service. The music added a pleasant ambiance without being overpowering. I'm sharing this gem with fellow curly and coily-haired individuals, but secretly hoping I can still snag an appointment once everyone discovers how fantastic this place is!

After moving from Woodstock to Atlanta, I tried two salons closer to the city... and let's say I…read morelearned my lesson. Nobody does it like the stylists at Salon Vanessa. Jerny has been doing my hair for years & every appointment feels like catching up with your bestie who also happens to be amazing at hair. He gives honest advice, always knows what will look best, never pushes extra services. He remembers my family& always asks about my mom and sister (who he does too) and makes getting my hair done one of the highlights of my week. 10/10 would recommend

I recently learned the value of good skincare. You know, I've gotten away with it my whole life,…read morejust splashing some water on my face and drying off with a towel, but I'm taking it a bit more seriously these days. So I was in the market for a facial, and I googled spas near me and found Salon and Spa Vanessa. I chose it because it was the closest thing to where I was, lucky me. It sits in an old historic home. It's an Aveda spa. This whole place smells amazing. They've got great products. And then obviously, they're a good enough high-quality spa and salon to be able to carry the Aveda line in the first place. I understand they're fairly selective. So I got in same day for a facial, same morning, which was great because I hate waiting. Worked out perfect for me. The facial was great. Excellent experience from start to finish. Staff were warm and welcoming. I picked up my favorite candle, some hand wash, and got a little voucher for some money off my next different treatment since I was a first-time customer, new customer. Parking is free if you're there for the salon. Otherwise, you have to pay behind the building. Really nice experience. I would definitely go back and recommend it to anyone in the Woodstock area looking for a nice spa treatment.

My mom recommended I go to variations to see Oxanna to get the dye out. Oxanna saved my life and my looks. It took around 3 hours to get the stubborn dye covered up as at first it was bleach resistant- but she never gave up. It was a stressful experience for the both of us because the dye was so stubborn, but the result was incredible and I don't know what she did but after this my hair was also the healthiest it's ever been, even with the bleach. Could not recommend her enough!!!

Sila's Salon and stylist are WONDERFUL!!…read more I took my teenage daughter for braids--long (waist length), two color, small box braids. Nancy braided her hair. Nancy is professional! She arrived on time, got right to it and to my amazement, she did not take a break for more than a short few minutes at a time. She is FAST! She is PRECISE! She provided EXACTLY the style my daughter had longed for! (and she is a particular. teen!) Nancy knocked out those waist length, small box braids in 5hrs, which was exactly the time she estimated it would be! Claire, stylist greeted us when we arrived. Like Nancy, she was kind, professional and a pleasure to talk to! There was a gentleman there with us towards the end of the appointment. He answers the phone periodically. He was also very kind! All are super down to earth and again, professional, which is important to me! Covid Measures - all staff wore masks and maintained Covid precautions! PROS - clean salon - professional staff (kind as well) - precise and efficient stylist - on time - location (easy to find, plenty of parking) CONS - none! Shockingly, and I am very particular, but Sila's truly came through! It was good reviews like mine, which made me decide to give Sila's Salon a try! We were 1000% pleased!

The day of my appointment it was outing down rain, I live about a mile away so was driving slowly. I made it to the shop at 12:28 for a 12:30 appt. I look at my messages and the owner is asking me to reschedule. I walked into the shop and ignored the text. I wasn't late. When I made the appointment online, she had a 12 noon, 12:30 pm which I took and a 5:00 pm. I was in the midst of getting my hair done, all of a sudden an elderly lady comes in at 1:30. She , the owner I believe, stopped doing my hair and asked if she could put color on the lady's hair " real fast ". I obliged, what could I say. Even though I'm sure she was the the noon appointment. She took more than 1 hour. She barely apologized for the delay. When she got back to me, she burnt me with flat iron . I later found a bald spot in the same area where she burned me. She was 80% done with my hair but still chose to do this put her other client before me. I remained calm, paid her a decent tip and never returned. Very rude to first time customer. She probably doesn't even remember this . I have not returned. I do not recommend if I could give negative star I would. Mary B
