First, I was told to change into robe and lay on what looked like a bed attached to a hair wash bowl. The comfort level was surreal (cloud 9 worthy). All of the organic products used at the salon are made by him so the one they used on my had a calming tea tree scent that brought out the natural sheen to my hair. Then, I was walked to a haircut chair where I enjoyed two cups of espresso (with my usual 10 packs of sugar) while the master taught me about hair. We took a picture after the wash of my hair (as displayed below) of my pre cut hair. He showed me how my hair was not flattering to my shape. Then he started the magic! After ten minutes of precisely pulling each section of hair and snipping off each strand with deep concentration, I was left with hair that fell into perfect place. The movement and natural volume that he created caught me off guard that this is really MY hair!? His team took over drying and beach curl styling my hair using the Salono hair dryer. Knowing how my hair is, I was worried that the style wouldn't hold over the weekend so I asked them if any products are going to be used. They reassured me, between the shampoo/conditioner and hair dryer will lock in the moisture and NOT using a heat protectant will help from not burning my hair. The fact that no in-house products were pushed onto me showed that the proof is in the results. I HIGHLY recommend Pascal Bensimon! read more

Highly recommend!!!! I got a beautiful cut and blow out!! Perfect if your looking to get your hair dyed and cut. The place is very nice and clean. My hair looks amazing. Thank you Pascal!!! read more

Wish I would have read these Yelp reviews in full before I got my hair done here. I could sense the inauthenticity of the salon owner halfway through my cut and color. Drama for sure and yes, like another review mentioned, I can also attest that Bensimon did speak poorly of his employee to me. He later apologized. I wanted to go from blonde to brunette but was told I needed toner first and that I would need multiple appointments to get back to my original color. So you mean $500 x 4 appointments. Do the math. You're not fooling me bro. I've been blonde and box died my hair to become a brunette in one sitting. For $10. In 10 minutes. And it worked. I spent 6 hours there because they had to tone my hair twice. I kid you not, it looked about 1 shade darker than when I left. They did NOT use any actual color. What. the. heck. I cried. Yeah, I may look all sweet and innocent but I am a Leo and when I am unhappy I will speak up. You have to sign a voucher stating that Pascal will touch you to determine the cut and style. I found myself in my sports bra with the robe down past my shoulders as he trimmed my hair. An excuse to get touchy feely? I think so. How is this in the St. Regis? Is there an option for zero stars on here? I will attest that because I was unhappy they did not charge me for the toner, so it was nice that his assistant acknowledged that. read more

Pascal is truly amazing. I live in LA, so I normally get my hair cut there, however, since I was home for the holidays, my mom insisted that I see Pascal. The entire experience was great. The staff is friendly, the cappuccinos are tasty, and most of all, my hair looks GREAT. The haircut was really catered to my face shape rather than just a one-size-fits-all approach. Thank you Pascal!! read more

For the ridiculous price of $650 for a color and cut, this is not worth it to say the least. You have to be nuts to go back and spend that kind of money. I guess i was dumb to not inquire about the price beforehand. So much drama in the salon. Pascal talks poorly of his employees...now quite what you expect for this price range. read more

I am very picky about my hair. Very. I have been to most of the major salons in Atlanta, and some I liked better than others. But I LOVE Pascal Bensimon. Pascal is located in the heart of Buckhead, on Shadowlawn, near the new Trader Joe's. The salon itself is a renovated cottage, with a welcoming, cheerful vibe. The staff offers you refreshments du jour (coffee, chocolates, tea, croissants, perhaps even wine if you time it right ;) It's a nice touch. Pascal and his staff are simply w o n d e r f u l! When I go there, I feel like I am spending an afternoon with friends, not on display in an uptight fancy salon (as some other places sometimes make you feel). Even the customers are great, and the atmosphere encourages everyone in the salon to chat and have a great time while Pascal works his magic. And it is truly magic. I don't understand how they do it, but no matter how you look or feel going in there, you will look and feel like a million bucks when you leave. It is a wonderful thing! I have had cut & color done there, and have been very pleased with both. Pascal has his own unique bayalage technique for highlights that produces incredibly natural results, and I've found I can go much longer between highlights than when I've had foils. Plus, there is no sitting under the dryer! Woohoo! Yuri and Regina are also fabulous, you just cannot go wrong here. Gals, you will look amazing. Guys, you can get a haircut in a friendly salon full of beautiful gals (grin). Seriously, everyone I've met there loves Pascal Bensimon's, and with good reason. read more

This was the best haircut I've had in over 20 years, and the color is perfect. I have wavy hair that most stylists can't quite handle, resulting in a lot of frizzy and awkward hair days in between salon visits. 2 weeks after my cut with Pascal, during the most humid time of the year in Atlanta and with my own very limited hair styling skillset, this cut still looks fantastic. Anyone battling wavy frizzy hair knows how miraculous this is. He worked with my hair instead of against it. I feel like I found the holy grail of salons. I've received compliments every day since leaving Pascal's salon. The man is a genius. I haven't been this happy with my hair in decades. I also tried to lighten my hair this past year at other salons. Gray was beginning to appear and clashing with my previously brown/black hair. I never thought it would be so difficult to get light brown hair, but I've had everything from Holly Hobbie orange to yellow blond from the other salons, all hideous. Pascal did not just correct the color, he perfected it. It has the perfect touch of honey, looks completely natural, blends with my roots, and looks both refined and spectacular, if I do say so myself. This man is the penultimate professional, as were his staff in every aspect of the visit, from shampooing to assisting him with the color. They are worth every penny. And if I'd gone to him in the first place, I wouldn't have wasted so much money and time in multiple attempts to correct the work of the previous subpar coloring jobs. Absolutely amazing and won't go anywhere else from now on. read more

If you are look for a fantastic haircut, look no further! I used to go NY to get my hair cut/colored until Covid left me stuck in the Atlanta. I tried Pascal and it was the best haircut and color I ever gotten! Truly the best! The cut frames my face perfectly and looks great wether wear it up or down. I highly recommend Pascal! read more

Quite possibly the single best haircut I've had in 10 years! I've lived in NYC and even the most touted curly hair salons can not compare. Pascal did an amazing job of cutting my tresses not only for curly days but when the mood strikes me to straighten my hair. For me, the sign of an epic curly hair cutter is that it looks great no matter how you decide to wear it. Bravo Pascal! I will definitely be returning even though I live in California! read more

On Wednesday this week I was treated to cut and color by Pascal . I have had fine , thin hair my entire life and always get nervous when I get hair cut and colored because most generally they don't know how to treat this fine hair . I can't begin to tell you how happy and surprised I am . Pascal did one amazing job with this head of hair or better described as lack of hair . I have short hair and it actually looks nice , it's soft , shiny and feels like it has more body . The cut is amazing , the color if perfect . Everyone in the salon is top notch and so very attentive and friendly . I'll be back in 5 weeks for Pascal to work his magic . Thank you to my son Christopher and his wife Dana for this great gift ! read more

Went to Pascal for the first time. I've been to almost every salon from Buckhead to Alpharetta and the experience at Pascals was superior to them all. I felt immediately at ease upon meeting him and felt confident I would be pleased with the end result. His unique highlighting technique and expertise helped my hair look and feel healthy and natural. The staff was friendly and attentive. I will most definitely return! read more

Best haircut I have ever had. This is my 3rd time and I can not believe how much better my hair looks

Pascal Bensimon is a master at cutting hair and has an excellent eye for color. He takes his time to cut every single lock and is proficient in explaining what his plan for your hair is. When I left my hair felt light as a feather and I felt like I looked younger. In addition, Pascal's team is delightful and very well trained. I felt like I was in excellent hands throughout my visit. I look forward to many wonderful cuts and color. read more

Best cut in a very long time! Had a blast - very fun place! I have self confidence again! Thanks Pascal!! I love it.....& so many compliments!!! Maggie Hektoen read more

Fantastic. I found my new salon. I was a staying at the hotel while closing on my new home in Atlanta. I was a walk-in. I never do this; I have terrible anxiety about having my hair cut. Pascal and his staff made me feel so comfortable. They are so nice and accommodating, and clearly are masters of their art. Pascal gave me an amazing cut and color. So grateful! Great experience all around. read more

Amazing experience. I was there for several hours because I needed a lot of work done! But in the end I had a great time and I absolutely love what they did for my cut and color. Fantastic team and lovely owner. Definitely recommend!!! read more

Best in Atlanta. From the moment you walk in the door, each member of Pascal's team, including himself, is working hard to make sure each client gets the best service. Pascal is gifted. I highly recommend this salon. read more

Getting my hair done by Pascal is equal to a day of beauty at one of the finest salons in Paris. The personal attention, the cut and color tailored to what will look best for me - the result, feeling beautiful and confident and an excitement to return again. read more

I have been a die hard regular of Pascal's for several years now, and every haircut I have gotten from him has been nothing short of spectacular. His staff is amazing, and his skill is far better than anyplace I have been in Atlanta. I have extremely straight hair that difficult to style, but Pascal was the one person who has gotten it under control. Simply the best that Atlanta has to offer!! read more

From the moment I walked into Pascal's salon I was impressed. It is a lovely space and every interaction I had with his staff was fantastic. As for the haircut.. Pascal truly has a gift. I went in with long hair and decided I wanted to cut it all off and he did more than a phenomenal job. It was probably the best and most thoughtful haircut I have ever had. I highly recommend Pascal and will be returning! read more

Gorgeous color and cut - the best I have ever had! I have had so many compliments even from strangers. I can't believe that I have lived here for 30 years and just found Pascal. His cutting style is unique - prepare to stand up, sit down and rotate your head in all directions. He cuts according to your head shape and what a difference that makes! I washed and conditioned my new cut today and was so happy to find that I could duplicate the great look myself with no effort. Don't be intimidated by Pascal's new location at the elegant St. Regis Hotel in Buckhead. The Salon is small, friendly and intimate. You will feel comfortable, welcome and oh so pampered. Priciing is competitive with other quality salons but the value is exceptional! Do treat yourself to this experience...guarantee you will be back! The only downside is that I will never again be happy with any lesser cut now that I have known Pascal's magic scissors!. read more

Honestly, I never thought I could say Pascal gave me the best haircut I've ever had. Lol!! But he did. The salon I had a haircut at a week ago really messed up my hair, and while in the St. Regis, I ran into Pascal and asked him what he thought was wrong and he told me, then said he could fix it. Sounds silly, but his attention to detail regarding cutting and explaining to me what he was doing and why, was incredible. The overall experience in general, was the coolest I've ever had when getting a haircut. Super cool guy and a true professional. read more

There are many people that cut hair- Very Few Artists- Pascal is truly amazing. A true artist that is energized by his craft. Aside from getting the best haircut ever, the atmosphere is fun, irreverent and unique. The only hesitation I have in writing this recommendation is that it will make it harder to get an appointment! read more

Pascal is the best you can find for color and cut. I have been seeing him for over 15 years. I moved to NY 11 years ago, where I tried many top salons with not even close to the same results. So, every time I am back in Atlanta (every 4-6 months to visit my parents) I see Pascal. The cut and the color will hold for that long! I always get so many complements on my hair, and it is all thanks to him and his amazing staff! Highly recommended and one of the best in the country. read more

Pascal cut my hair in the 90's and I was amazed at his technique. I was also a hair model for his cutting classes and realize that a spectacular hair cut goes above and beyond what most "beauty schools" teach. That's why hair dressers were taking his classes. Fast forward 15+ years - I moved away and have not had a good cut since then. I kid you not. Many claim they cut based on face shape, hair texture, lifestyle but their skills are below par. Trust me, I've tried many in Charlotte NC. I decided enough of bad hair, that's it: I tracked Pascal down and could not have been happier with his expert technique. The Salon is exquisite in every-way! The staff accommodating and good at what they do!! The whole team is fabulous!! If you have the time, run don't walk to Pascal's!!! Your hair looks great growing out too! It's because he takes the necessary time and attention to do it right. Seriously, u will look fabulous!!! read more

Had an extremely frustrating experience here. Arrived early, but they started me quite late. Told them when I needed to be out of there and they got me out 35 minutes later despite having plenty of time for a blow dry (one hour). Staff was nice but expressed no sense of urgency even after explaining multiple times I was running late. The fact that the blowdry was 75 with no discount offered was the icing on the cake. Will absolutely not be back. read more

After many years here I've finally quit. Just too much drama translating into too many bad $400 haircuts.

Absolutely horrendous. My friend went and raved about how great he was. Her pics she sent me looked fabulous so I thought I would give him a try... I wanted 2 inches off my hair and 2 inches turned to 6. I wanted to keep my hair dark and what he calls balayage was basically tiny highlights. I have dark brown hair so the blonde Balayage highlights looked horrible in my hair... But was worse was that I left the salon with one side of my hair 1 inch longer than the other. I went to my salon and they said "what did he do to you?!" And I am still asking myself the same thing.. So they had to cut a little more of my hair to fix the cut he gave me. He told me that this would be the best cut and color of my life and it turned out to be the worst. And what was the price? Grand total of $432... I think that's overpriced for any hair services but it was especially overpriced for the terrible service and outcome I received. I am SO happy that I at least received a refund but don't go. Save yourself the trouble and money because I left the salon crying... Now to wait another year for my hair to grow back to the way it was. Avoid at all costs possible. read more

Pascal is truely an artist with his skill. I have had him cut my hair several times and not only did it look great after the cut. But the way he cut my hair it would look good even as it grew when normally within days it would seem to look like it was weeks old. His salon is execptional, the staff is super nice. If you want to look your best this is the place to go, and you'll continue coming back. read more

I had been unhappy with my hairdresser for quite some time I but was hesitant to make a change. I heard about Pascal and decided to give him a try. Now I don't know what I waited so long. My hair looks and feels better than it has in ages. The color is terrific and Pascal's cut was so good that I no longer have to use the straightening products that were damaging my hair. Pascal is a gifted artist and I am thrilled that I found him. read more

Pascal is the real deal. if you want an amazing haircut from someone who knows what he's doing and what's best for your face, shape, hair, then you should make an appointment with Pascal. i've only had my hair cut in NYC and Paris, so this was my first experience in Atlanta, and it was an excellent one. He's expensive, but his expertise and the overall experience are worth it. read more

After 8 years of mediocre color and cuts in some of Atlanta's most expensive and exclusive salons, I've found a true artist in M. Bensimon. The staff was polite and M. Bensimon truly commands his craft. I left the salon feeling happy with how I looked and the overall experience. read more

Pascal is simply amazing. I have fine, limp hair. I have never ever in my life had a haircut where it looked like I had twice as much hair! Pascal cut so much "body" into my hair and I was able to work with it myself afterward. The style stayed workable, unlike other cuts I have had where it was out of shape and I could not do anything with it as it began to grow. My color has grown in very natural too. He has an untraditional way of working, but the results are absolutely amazing! He doesn't just sit you down and cut, he really studies how your hair grows and falls and really gives you a cut you can work with and is flattering. I have never had so many compliments on my hair cut and color. read more

Pascal Bensimon is an artist. After hunting for a perfect salon to do balayage on my dark brunette hair, I turned to Pascal to perform his artistry. He immediately recognized my concerns and did not hesitate to reassure me that I would be more than satisfied with my hair when he finished. If you are selective, picky, worried, indecisive about making a change, be reassured that you will be glad you made the decision to go here. He has a warm friendly team working with him that is genuinely concerned for your comfort, satisfaction, and hair appearance. Although the price is on the higher end, you truly get more than you pay for. With this peace of mind, you will walk out of the salon glowing and perfectly satisfied. Pascal has the balayage technique mastered. read more

I am from Europe and had thousands of hair cuts/ high lights over my life in Europe and other big cities in this world. Never I felt like this when I left. If you deeply care about your appearance and want to have a Lasting beautiful cut/ color you MUST go to Pascal. Some salons have this spa feel like you have with Pascal but if you go to get your hair done here, you take the feeling with you. The hair cut/color brings out the best in you, you can handle your hair afterwards!!! He is the Master in his field and will transform your self conception!! This was truly a life changing visit! Thank you Pascal and TEAM!!! read more
