This was my first visit to No Lye Lifestyle but it most certainly will not be my last. As a matter of fact, I have already booked my next visit. I scheduled a consultation to discuss what I was looking for and Renee was very helpful in helping me to decide what would be best for me in beginning my natural hair journey. I booked my appointment for the next day. The appointment was scheduled for 3:00 and I was in the chair at exactly 3:00. She explained what she was doing as she went along and even handed me the mirror to see what she was doing as she explained the process. What was most important to me was knowing how to maintain my hair in between visits. She did an excellent job with the explanations and I was able to keep my hair looking fresh with her tips and recommendations. Even with the heat and humidity, I knew exactly what to do each morning to feel confident when I walked out the door each day. I like the salon suite. I have been to salons where you spend 5-6 hours of your day waiting in the client rotation. This was not that at all. She schedules her clients according to their services and tries to avoid having you waiting unnecessarily. I can't wait until my next appointment. read more

I love the services that I receive from Naomi. She listen to you and make recommendations based on my hair needs.

So the stars of this salon are CJ and Stacey. In fact the 2 stars solely belong to them. Friendly, sincere and sweet. The owner is incredibly rude, nasty and ornery. Terrible tone while speaking to others. My first impression of this salon was the owner's crappy attitude. I was met with a dry and annoyed hello and than was snapped at to go wash my hands in their bathroom. (Never been to this salon before so I don't know where anything is located). Thank God for CJ because had she not spoke up I would've left the salon and took my business elsewhere. I allowed the owner's dumpster attitude to effect my mood to where I completely disengaged. Once she left for the day I was able to connect with my stylist like I NORMALLY do anytime I get my hair done at a salon. My home salon is Texture salon in Buckhead so my expectations of customer service might be too high for individuals who choose to infect others with their unprofessional garbage moods. read more

I've been a regular here since 2019, but my last visit with Aaniah was a total letdown. I came to get some small/medium kinky twists, but the result? Not even close to professional standards especially the front section which was seriously lacking the fullness I was expecting on. Compared it to the pics on the website and it was a world of difference. For the price I paid, I was expecting a better work. I have done with style on MYSELF before and I did a way better job than a so-called "professional." After this experience I wouldn't recommend this spot to anyone. You'll end up just as disappointed as I was read more

I usually get two strand twist at Natural Trendzetters but I have also gotten a Mohawk, cornrows with extensions and a silk press. No matter what style I get, I always leave happy. Ms. Renee and her staff are very professional and experienced. If you go to the Midtown location, I highly recommend Jaime. She is awesome and her hands are gentle on your head. At the Snellville location Paris did my Mohawk with twist and I have gotten many compliments on the style . The ambiance in both salons is very relaxing and the customer service is top notch. I'm constantly referring people to Natural Trendzetters Salon because I think it's the best salon in Snellville. read more

Renee and her team are top-notch. There are not many natural hair salons where you know and feel that you are in the hands of a master hair stylist. Not only are they masters of transforming your look but they are aloo knowledgeable about caring for hair. Whenever I get my hair done at Natural Trendzetter, I am met with an avalanche of compliment. read more

My most recent visit to Natural Trendzetter was bad and the customer service follow-up was really bad.I wanted to get 5 French braids (under braided). The owner, Renee told me to choose 5 "cornrows" from their menu and enter under braids in the comments. I did. I arrived at the salon only to be told by the selected stylist, Dominique, that she dis not know how to do French braids and that she NEVER reads the comments. I was disappointed and told her so but had wasted the time and allowed her to just braid 5 feed in cornrows. On first glance, I noticed some of the added hair sticking out. The stylist clipped that spot. What I didn't know until I got home was that there was other hair in the bun sticking out and she used a gel that turned white after drying. I contacted owner, Renee who said the stylist didn't finish the ends because I was "just going to wear it in a bun". While examining my hair closer, I saw white patches on my scalp and chalky white stuff in my hair. It was disgusting Renee said, "it's probably the gel". I was angry by now and started taking it down to wash the gel out of my hair. I told her that I wanted a refund of my $80. She said they "don't give refunds". They fix it. I said I didn't have time to go back plus the stylist did not have the skills to French braid! After two days, I went to Essence of Hair where owner, Dionne, French braided my hair like I requested. I told Renee, and she said I was not the kind of customer they needed. She offered to refund $40. Look at the pictures. Would this be acceptable service for you? read more

I want to thank Courtney for all that she's done with my hair. From entering the facility and feeling welcome, to giving me options of what exactly I want to do with my hair. This is the first time I've walked into a salon to get my hair done, so the experience was exceptionally well!!!! Highly recommend this place and Courtney's services!! read more

This was one of the BEST salon experiences I've had in life! I was referred to Renee by a coworker. Her site wasn't showing availability for the next week. When I called to confirm, she found time to squeeze me in! That was the first sign of great customer service. I drove over an hour, sat in hella traffic (due to the bridge collapse) and I'm sure I passed a billion salons along the way, but when I TELL you it was worth it! Listen, from the way she washed my hair, to the comp steam treatment (for 1st time clients) and the speed in which she twisted my hair, was truly an experience!!! I LOVED it and have already made appointments for me and my daughter's next visit! I definitely recommend Natural Trendzetters! Renee has 2 new loyal customers in my daughter and I!! Tell her Kia sent you! * Will vlog my next visit! Subscribe now: www.youtube.com/c/KiaRashan read more

I have been struggling for a while to find a hair salon to manage my natural hair, so when a friend recommended that I try this place-I quickly ran to yelp to check out the reviews. I can say that my experience was pretty consistent with the other reviews, however, there was a slight drag between my appointment time and the time my hair actually got started. Overall I am very satisfied with the service I received. My hair looks, feels, and smells nice! I can definitely see myself coming back to get my hair done. Also I found it very nice that there were complimentary tea, Keurig cups, and cheese balls! Got to have snack! read more

I can see why this place has so many positive reviews. It was easy to book an appointment online, which is super helpful. The salon is small & intimate, and very comfy & clean. Renee had a few other clients, which is clearly why she changed my appt time, but she juggled us pretty well. I feel like Renee talked to me along the way, but I guess she wasn't fully hearing me. I had to do this review for anyone looking for a short cut (TWA) like mine. I was not happy. Having recently had a bad experience with a style I requested not coming out right, I made a point to be very clear with Renee about what I wanted. I even tried to tell her my hair woes, but she didn't seem to care much. My hair not only looks nothing like the picture I showed her, but the top of my hair was cut when I distinctly asked her twice not to do that, and the sides were barely cut at all until I asked her to shave more. I actually cried about the top of my hair because I wanted a fuller top, and I had recently gotten highlights that are now mostly gone. The pic I showed her had a full top and low cut sides, so imagine my confusion there. During the cut, I could feel the clippers nick my neck with every motion as she shaved DOWN the back of my head. I never had anyone shave my head in a downward motion, but I'm not the professional here. I didn't realize until days later that I have a burn and a thin scar going across the back of my neck. This was supposed to be my birthday/vacation hair and I walked out so upset. She didn't style it, which I did not expect so I also left looking incomplete. I didn't even see an option on the site for a style, so I didn't know I needed to add that. I asked questions before my appt, so it could have been a chance to clarify further, but nope. Many people asked me why I paid, especially when my top was cut. It's a great question, but I'm not confrontational and I knew I could rock it anyway; it's not like she could glue the hair back on. I wasn't trying to cause a scene and I tried to be optimistic, but the way the back of my neck looks right now is NOT OK. I'm not sure how I keep having people do my hair when they aren't sure what to do. When I spoke to Renee a couple days before my appointment I asked if I needed to tell her anything or show what I wanted, and she said "no," so I trusted her confidence, along with these glowing reviews. This conversation also could have been a chance to clarify that I wanted my hair styled, and she could have let me know to modify my request, but nope. I walked out the day of my birthday celebration with the wrong cut that wasn't even styled; just moussed. I won't be back. read more

I have been a client of Renee's for a few months. I love her commitment to ensuring her clients are receiving the best treatment and service specifically fit for them. I enjoy the clean and spacious environment of a beauty shop. I was first drawn in by her treatment package, that offers a variety of treatments based on the needs of your hair. I have been impressed with each treatment and the maintenance of my hair after the treatments. I will continue my natural hair journey with Renee at Natural Trendzetter. A very popular and convenient area as well. Additionally, Renee keeps me updated on any appointment time changes, which is very beneficial. read more

....it started off good...so good that I tried to be a repeat customer but NOOOOOOOO. Scheduled a weekday afternoon appointment, left work early only to get a message that my stylist wanted to know if I could come 2 hours later. Tried to wait it out but didn't want to miss my nail appointment so I left. Later, rescheduled online again for Saturday morning only to get a call 30 minutes before my appointment wanted to know if I could push it back an hour. If you are fine w/ folks wasting your time, then still give it a try (making it kind of hard to beat that CP time image) But I did get a text message from the manager saying sorry so yeah it's all good right? yeah, I won't be back read more

Renee Hall at Naturaltrendzetters is absolutely fabulous!! A year ago my hair was cut in a tiny fro. My natural hair has grown past my shoulders. I always receive compliments on my styles. Excellent service-No waiting! I'm in Renee's chair upon arrival AND I GET HER UNDIVIDED ATTENTION!! I'm in and out in no time!! She is all about the business of healthy natural hair read more

PROS: convenient location with plenty of parking, clean and comfortable salon, stylists have one client at a time, versatility in hair styling and stylists are trained in caring for natural hair - so that it looks good and is also healthy CONS: expensive to go regularly (I change my style roughly once a month), and traffic in the area can be messy during rush hour I found Renee shortly after I moved to Atlanta about a year ago. I was searching for a stylist that would style my hair in its coiled natural state, vs. just straighten it. I've gotten comfortable enough with Renee to try some different styles and I'm never left disappointed. I constantly get compliments on my hairstyles - from Mohawks with 2 strand twists in the middle, to crochet braids, to individual braids - Renee keeps me looking right! I've never experienced pain when she braids my hair, and my edges remain in tact. She also provides advice on products to use on my hair. I truly appreciate her knowledge, flexibility, and expertise. The shop is clean, comfortable and friendly. I LOVE the fact that Renee doesn't book multiple clients at the same time . My appointment is my appointment - I'm not sharing with 2-3 other people. At most, I've waited 15 minutes for her to finish with another client, but that's more of the exception than the rule. I'm extremely picky about my hair - can't believe I was lucky enough to find a stylist in my new city on my first try. No one is perfect, and there is always room for improvement, so I don't believe in giving perfect scores on any review (hence the 4 stars). read more

This review is long overdue. I've been going to Natural Trendzetter (Renée) for years and have gotten nothing but great service. My cornrows (with or without extensions) are never tight on my scalp, but stay neat for weeks (even after swimming). She is very creative with styling and she'll let you know if there are going to be changes to a style you request. read more

Amazing experience from start to finish, I'll never give another dollar to the African braiders....Thank God for Ms.Renee girl you rock!!!! read more

if i could give a huge zero for this place i would!! i received the woosah service from conqhetta, little did i know i'd be leaving with my beautiful thick natural hair short and shorn. please someone take the scissors away from her. she showed up extremely late for the appointment. made no effort to talk to me. was extremely rough handling my hair. she gave no professional advice and commentary on my hair, even though they force you to fill out a long sheet of what your hair regimen and hair goals are. then insulted my personal routine before i left. she told me i needed a trim every 2 weeks (i had to ask her for her thoughts btw), which is ridiculous and sounded like a scam. if it were up to her i'd be bald and broke. never ever going back there. now my hair is severely uneven and significantly less dense. please save yourself the heartache i'm going through. read more

I booked my appointment online. I arrived 30mins early bc I like to be on time and it was my first time. I selected the "Big Chop" package. Renee started on time and from start to finish she was professional. She washed, treated, cut, treated and style my little fro!! She explained to me how to treat and style my hair. She answered all my questions professionally. My experiences was amazing!! Her salon is beautiful! The atmosphere is very warm and pleasant. I would highly recommended her for your "Big Chop" bc that the only package I've experienced. Thank you Renee and Natural Trendsetters! ! read more

So finding a new hair stylist was one of the top priorities for me.I had been transitioning for about 8 months and I finally did the BIG CHOP Sep.24, 2014. One of the best things I have ever done in my life. I started searching and came across Renee and her salon Natural TrenzeyterAll I can say is this woman knows what she is doing hands down!!!! From the way she greeted me at the door,shampooing and conditioning my hair, and the styling. Renee gave good advice and her knowledge of hair and hair care far exceeded what I was expecting.

My daughter and myself have been clients of Renee's for 2 years. I originally sought out a natural hair stylist for my daughter and after I saw Renee's work, I decided to transition to natural hair. I had been thinking of transitioning for awhile and wasn't sure of my styling options. Renee is very professional, highly creative and understands how to care for natural hair in a way that makes your hair healthy, shiny and beautiful. Renee is not only a "beast" with braided styles, she does it all, including weaves and straight styles. If you are in the Atlanta area and are looking for a natural stylist, you can't go wrong with Renee. read more

I love this salon. It's a great atmosphere and Toboeia really knows what she's doing. From the moment she first did my hair I knew that she would be the only one doing my hair. She knows hair and even teaches me how to take care of it myself. She's very friendly and just pleasant as well as professional. read more

Rene is awesome! I arrived to my appointment and she promptly got started on my crochet braids. I loved the fact that she didn't braid my real hair or crochet too tight. She took extremely good care of my natural hair by washing and conditioning it. She also has a lot of knowledge about natural hair care and gave me great tips on how I can begin to get my hair healthier. I'm loving my crochet braids. I will definitely go back because she is knowledgeable, prompt, and attentive to my hair. She also gave me a 1st time customer discount and told me about other great customer incentives to take advantage of in the future. I would definitely recommend anyone to give Rene a try for their natural hair care needs. read more

My regular stylist had to go out of town for the weekend, so I needed to find somebody fast to do this natural head of mine. I conducted a Google search and ran across Natural Trendzetter. I liked the ease of booking the appointment online. I promptly received a confirmation email and the next day I received an appointment reminder. The service I receive was the flat twist combo. Renee was very sweet, pleasant, and down to business. She is very talented and professional. She started on time, and she twisted my hair up fast, the longest part was sitting under the dryer. She asked me how I wanted my style, and I told her I didn't have an preference and to make it look nice, and she went over and beyond. I am happy with the service. Her prices are not bad, but I wasn't expecting to pay what I did for the service. I guess it will be worth it if my style will last for 3-5 weeks. She also gives out discounts for first time clients. Next time, I will try to find me a service that is more in tune with my budget. If you are looking for a stylist who will do a good job on your natural hair Renee is your woman. She will definitely bring your sexy back. read more

I go here every time I want braids. The atmosphere is nice and chill. I went there 2 weeks ago and got my hair braided by Toboia. She's very professional and an amazing hair stylist. I would highly recommend going to Natural Trendzetter! read more

I went to this salon for a big chop so I could donate my hair to two charities. The person that performed the chop was rude and sarcastic with everything that I said while making small conversation. She wet may hair to cut it and had little care in the hair that was going to be donated by just handing it to me wet and in different lengths. With the length of my hair, I was only able to donate 1 bundled because they were all different lengths. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Paying customers should not be subjected to poor service or poor attitudes. When donating, you only have one shot at the cut. I was more disgusted with her attitude than the cut. Knowing the stylists poor attitude, she may try to challenge me for writing this review. Nothing surprises me these days.(Smh). Anyway, if you are going for the big chop and have length to your hair I would suggest another salon. read more

I came from San Diego, Ca to ATL and luckily I found Renee!! My hair was so hard for me to manage. I decided to go with the Package *Chopped. I am so happy I did. Renee educated me on how to take care of my hair. I also had a steam treatment, which I had never had before. The steam treatment is awesome! Renee even sent me a video to check and see if I had any questions or concerns. That was a first. I HIGHLY recommend going to Renee. She is easy to talk to and she makes you feel comfortable. Thank you so much Renee!! read more

I started seeing Renee of Natural Trendzetter back in 2007 when I took my first stab at transitioning away from relaxers. She was very knowledgable and put my mind at ease which is no easy task considering how picky I am about who touches my hair. I always gets TONS of compliments on her styles whether its braids with extensions, a weave, two strand twists, or flexi sets...Renee's skills are endless and she cares about healthy hair which is hard to find in many salons these days. She values your time and always gets her clients in and out expeditiously. Try her, you and your hair will love her! read more

Renee is anointed with talent and creativity! When I was referred to her over 2 years ago- I had breakage and was in the middle of a really bad perm! My natural transition was not easy but I embraced the different styles and kept going back! I am so pleased with the condition of my hair. It is natural and healthy! I can get any style and receive compliments for weeks! She uses great products and has really nice techniques to get the hair in a manageable and healthy state. Best of all- She is Fast and Flexible. I can tell her the time I need to leave and that is when I leave- She does not book a bunch of clients in one timeslot and is very good at estimating the time you need for a certain style. I can set my watch by how accurate she is. It is wonderful customer service skill and will always set her apart from others. You will be very happy to have Renee as your stylist! Book NOW! read more
