First off let me tell you, I've been coming to this salon for almost 4 years now since a friend recommended it way back then. I fell in love with her cut and color and just had to check the place out. My stylist on my first visit back in 2011 was stout little Asian man and he did a fabulous job on my cut and color. At that moment... I was hooked. As years gone by I do not know if they have changed management or what not, but the level of quality and service has totally changed. The last time I came into Sens back in June I had a very tall, model like, slender Asian woman cut my hair. I asked her to keep the length and layer it in the back and waah-lah. She did just that! Loved it! And went on my merry way. 6 months later (I know that is way to long to wait to get another haircut, but my hair doesn't grow as fast as it use too) I come strolling back in with a picture in tow and ask the New stylist lady to do a specific hair cut and to keep it as long as possible. This New chic (which her name was not given) gives me the complete opposite. In no way, shape or form does my hair look remotely close. By the way, I wear glasses so while she's cutting my hair I can't see much until the final product and by then it was too late. I specifically asked for a long introverted angled Bob, and what I ended up with is 8 inches of my hair hacked off all around with razored choppy chunks in a uniform Bob like style. I'm was mortified...So help me God! I could live with the color (that I totally was not imagining) of the highlights. But RIP to my poor hair. I will be knocking back biotin pills and multivitamins for the next 4 months in hopes that my hair will grow back and looking for a new salon in the process. You all have lost a loyal customer. read more

Ben is a great hairstylist at Sen Salon. I get nothing but compliments with my cut, color, & highlights because of his terrific work. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality you receive.

Sen Salon - Cut, color, & highlights by Ben at Sen Salon. - Hair Salons Near Me - Doraville, Georgia

Pros: Clean, Ben the stylist speaks English, great price. Cons: Even if you make an appointment, be prepared to wait. Ben is a great stylist, he listens to what you want and knows how to cut asian hair. I usually get a layered cut with the V shape in the back, not anything crazy. He will thin your hair out incrementally too, so you can request more. I have super thick hair so I get it thinned out a lot, but he doesn't overdo this. I also come in for trims to get rid of the dead ends and he can do this without chopping too much off. The price for a woman's haircut is $29 not including tip. They have a hair washer who will wash your hair while you're sitting in a chair, and you get an extensively long and amazing head massage as well. Bring cash to tip this person. read more

Ben is the best ... best salon ... the hair massage amazing .. and u can't beat their prices for the service they offer ... I drive from kennesaw just to go their ... love this place read more

I've gotten my hair cut here a couple times and I've had no complaints. This time I came in with the intent to perm and color my hair. I showed the stylist Jack a few pictures of the balayage style I wanted which "costs" more because there is more painting/detailed highlighting. That's fine if you can do it right. Jack changed the top of my hair to a copperish color (the color I chose was ash brown) and my hair looked nothing like the pictures I showed. There should have been streaks of ash brown artfully painted throughout my hair instead I got way too much color on the top of my hair. It looks like I had my whole hair colored when it was supposed to be more like highlights (which is the whole point of balayage). I told him this but he countered that if it was darker you wouldn't be able able to even notice the difference in color. I wasn't looking to drastically change the color of my hair. Anyways I came back in another day to have this corrected. Jack added some low lights but it was still not enough to darken my hair. Again, was not satisfied at all. At this point, I spent so much time at the salon I'll just live with it or dye my hair myself in a month so I don't damage my hair too much. Do not come here for balayage, at least the stylist doing my hair has no clue what it is even though he said he did. read more

I got Japanese Perm which didnt even last for a week and cost me $200. My hair was terribly dammaged and got skin rashes because of the products. When i told the ower the he wanted to re do my hair but they were damaged already n made my hair fall terrible. I didnt wana take a chance so i just asked for a refund he gave me 40 percent. So bassically i paid $120 and got damaged n curly hair i had b4 along with terrible hair fall. Skin rash, n breathing problems bcoz when the lady was doing my hair the way she was applying products were coming on my face i tried to tell her n she didnt understand n kept doing the same thing. Along with that she skipped streps which were a part of the treatment as a result after 2nd or 3rd wash my haor was back to normal. So i paid 120 n got hair fall, rahes, and the curley i had b4 a complete rip off. read more

Dont go. I asked for mens haircut sample photo. He refuse. After i spot the magazine, he then get it. I showed the picture and ask him for the hair cut. After the cut, there are many spots mess up. Nicely i requested to improve. He throw me excuses. When asked for his name card, He claims to be the floor supervisor and refused to provide his name. I was counting to ensure i have enough cash before the hair cut. He doesn't like that. He is 5 feet 7 in tall. About 130 lb. Wear glasses with a pony tail. Speaks probably the Chinese Malaysian english. read more

WORST SALON EVER. My hair is literally breaking off as I type. I came in and asked for balayage hair (showed a picture. Traditional transition from black to brown) I won't name the stylist because I feel bad (it was a man), but I GOT SUCH A TERRIBLE DYE JOB. after leaving me with bleach on my hair for literally two hours, it was finally washed. (Now, I'm no professional, but I do know that bleach stops processing after awhile and you have to wash it off and reapply if you want it lighter so keeping me in bleach for that long was only damaging my hair.) when I was done being washed, by an unlicensed Hispanic girl, I was being blow dried assuming that more dye or bleach was going to be reapplied to my hair because it was literally a HARSH, unblended line of GOLD "ombre". It went from black to gold. No colors in between. There was such a harsh line. My hair was done blow dried and the unlicensed girl asked if I wanted my hair straight or curly. I quickly called over the stylist and asked if he was done with my hair. He looked at me crazy and told me yes this was what I wanted. I told him that it looked nothing like my picture and he needed to fix it. Btw, I asked him to tone it because it was sooooo brassy and gold and I asked for an ashy brown color. He didn't even know what "tone" was. Anyways. This time, he let the unlicensed girl fix my hair. Why would I let an unlicensed girl do my hair? Well, I didn't find out until the next day when I asked for my money back. I got my hair "fixed", literally, 4 times. My hair was washed 5 times that day, I pretty much just wanted to go home. I sat there for over 6 hours. It was as good as it was going to get. I didn't want to waste any more time. Charged me $125. I thought to myself, I was just going to go home and fix it myself or go to another place. I finally left and came home to see that there are WHITE PATCHES and horizontal platinum streaks going through my hair!!!! I can't believe they let me walk out the salon like that. Sad to say, but it looked way better than what my hair came out the first time. I've attached some photos in the gallery (it's the one with gold hair). Those aren't shadows or light reflecting on my hair, no, that is actually how my hair looks. The picture looks so much better than it does in person. Anyway; after seeing that, I went in the next day to ask for my money back. After arguing for awhile, they finally gave me $50. I didn't care. I just wanted something in return for the long 6 hours I sat there. That was when I found out the girl didn't have a license. The whole time she was "fixing" my hair, he was demonstrating to her how to do it and left her. Shouldn't a licensed professional know how to approach stuff without help? My hair now permanently looks crimped and is breaking off. I wish I could give this negative stars. I didn't want my money back because I didn't like the dye job. I wanted my money back because it looked like a middle schooler did my hair. It was just done badly. I called state board on them. read more

Why do I give one star? B/c this is another failure. I am looking for stylist that does what I ask. I have a lot of hair, and I really like volume, and many asian stylist in Atlanta like to thin my hair. And the humidity in Atlanta is high, so my hair goes flat after the first day. I specifically told Ben what i wanted and explain what will happen if my hair gets thin.. He still took out a lot of hair, and for sure the second day my hair is like shit. Not only he thinned my hair, my hair doesn't curl in anymore, it curls outward.. Thats a sign of bad hair cut.. My curl usually stays in between hair wash, if it curls outward the next day, meaning the hair stylist did a poor job on the bottom layering. I was so disappointed after the hair cut, and what make it worse was that my husband look at my hair and said, ur hair cut has no style and it look like cactus.. You have hair sticking out everywhere. Again, thats a sign the stylist thin my hair out on the outer layer so its not smooth outside anymore. I lived in LA for most of my life and maybe my standard isn't Atlanta standard. But not listen to what client want just not acceptable. Usually i give stylist the second try, but base on my experience this time, I will never go back again, ever. read more

Ben is the best! His shampoo girl did tangle my hair and that caused me to get very nervous almost instantly but I have unprocessed hair and had just taken down my extensions. Next time, I will most definitely deep condition the night before which is always a good idea to do when going to someone that may not be as familiar with your hair type. Anyway, once we got past that incident I was completely satisfied. Ben took over and made the world a happy place again. I would recommend anyone to go to him. He pays attention to what your hair needs, he DOES NOT apply excessive heat and does not get too close to your roots. I can't rave enough. If in doubt about a new person to do you flat ironing if you don't have time, or just don't want to do it yourself...you can trust Ben to do it. *I gave Ben a 5 even after the tangling incident...that speaks volumes as I am very picky about who touches my natural locks* read more

Look for Jack!!! He is amazing! He has so much knowledge and he fixed my brassy hair so well!

They have a really good customer service. I was in a rush and in less than 30 min my har was ready. Very gentle during the wash and concern about the client and the style they give you! I will definitely come back again! read more

Never come to this store!!!! Cut my hair so silly!!! The person barely listened to you. I told her my hair grows so slow and asked her not to cut my hair a lot. But in the end I lost a lot of my hair. And she was so careless and I guess she spent less than 10min on my hair. Terrible experience!!! read more

I have finally found a hair place. After many years of searching and trying every place on Buford hwy I have finally found a place I can trust to cut my hair well each time. Like typical Asian places they do a shampoo and head massage. I have had my hair cut from each person and I cant tell who I like the best be cause they are all good. The wait isn't long. Unless u ask for Ben them you should make an appointment. But for $25 bucks it's a great deal! read more

I'm pretty particular when it comes to people cutting my hair. My man Ben does a good job, he also gives good recommendation on what you should do with your hair. Price is great, you get your hair washed and cut for $18 if you're a guy. Can't beat that. I use to go to hair capital, but stopped after my appointsments were constantly delayed by 30min or more. read more

I had a truly wonderful experience here! The shampoo/massage was amazing and the cut I got from Angel was the best I've had in a while. Definitely coming back! read more

I'm pretty picky about getting my haircut, because there aren't many places where I'm from that are familar with my hair type (asian). I'm visiting from out of town so I thought I'd take the opportunity to get my hair cut in one of the asian towns. I literally walked in and was immediately seated to have my hair washed. The lady who washed my hair was UHmazing. She even massaged my neck and shouders. My haircut was simple and straightforward; I wanted to keep my length and add layers. The stylist even curled it for me when she was done. My only wish is that they used conditioner while washing or some heat protectant product before blow drying it. read more

Ben cut my hair the previous two times I've been there and he actually remembers me so we always have good conversation. I usually see a different hairstylist at another location but will switch here and there to try new people. At this location, the lady/helper washes my hair while I'm sitting up, but my hair is rinsed while laying down. Overall great haircut for around 35$, tip and additional tip for the hair washer....so around 45$ per cut which is still much cheaper than some other places. read more

Had three cuts at Sen Salon. The last one really messes me up, hair gets very choppy, the layers were mishandled, so is the bang. My first cut here went really well tho. I don't think I will come back again. It might be a better place for men's hair, my guy friends liked it a lot. read more

After reading the reviews on here, I thought I might as well give Sen Salon a try again. I had my haircut by the owner years ago and it was ok and after reading the reviews on here about the how GREAT BEN is and he's the best, I figure why not give him a try. I booked an appt for my hair to be cut by Ben and my husband afterwards. We arrived at the salon 20 mins early and it seemed pretty busy. Ben was pretty busy with his customers. Eventually Ben told me that Kelly was going to cut my husband's hair which I figured it would be fine and WOW did Kelly do a GREAT JOB on my husband's hair. It was a new do that he never had and all I had to tell Kelly was make him have a good-looking hairtstyle! =) Ben was pretty busy and Kelly eventually asked if I wanted to get my hair cut by Ben and I asked her if she could cut my hair and she said no problem but as soon as I sat in that chair, her customer who made an appt arrived so I had to wait for Ben. I gave Ben and idea of what I wanted which was an angle bob but not as short but enough and I could still tie up my hair. I told him that I basically had layered haircuts and other hairstyle and I wanted something new because it's summertime and also my baby was at the stage of pulling hair. He said ok and went to work. He asked me if I blow dry my hair and I told him no so he said he was going to layer my hair on top of my head to make it look full and etc. After cutting my hair which was chest level was done in 15 minutes if not less. I wasn't even given a mirror to see how my back look like and I looked at the mirror and at first it looked fine but I was sitting in the chair and also I wear glasses so when I put them back on, it was a glimpse. Now, it's almost midnight and I just got the chance to look at my hair up close and WOW I am so disappointed!! My left side has an angle cut and my right side looks horrible!! You can see it layered and all a bunch of mess and I don't know what happened! and the front where the angle hair was suppose to be, my left side is longer than my right. UGH, so irritated too because I can never find a really good salon that cuts asian hair so well. That is why I don't really go to salon much because of the disappointments I get. Well, I can tell you one thing, DO NOT GO THERE and get your haircut by BEN if he's busy because it just feels like the whole haircut was rushed because with super long hair, it should take longer. I mean my husband's haircut took longer than MINE!! I'm contemplating on having Kelly cut my hair the next time I go which I don't even know when and I'm still contemplating if I do want to go back. Right now, I hate my hair and there's not much that can be done since it was cut short. If I can give negative,ve stars, this salon would get it! read more

This place is the only place I will have my hair cut in the US. The ladies here are great at cutting my thick, long hair. Every time, I am very Satisfied with what they've done, and I have had so many bad cuts before, at Korean places, Chinese places, American places, etc. and felt like i wasted lots of money after getting my hair cut. Not this one. Though their price has gone up over the years, what I pay is totally worth it. Last time I went it was about 26-28 bucks excluding tip. I've paid more for substandard cuts in the past so I don't mind. read more

Since I started coming here, the haircuts have always come out great! As an Asian male, it is really hard to find an American haircut place that would cut my as professionally as Ben. read more

Great salon, I always ask for Maria (she always does a wonderful job.) As I'm very wary and scared to go to a new salon, having horrid haircuts in the past I find myself a coming back here whenever I need a trim or a new hairstyle. Been coming here for years. read more

Very clean and trendy salon. Was greeted when I walked in. I think it was Ben who greeted me asking what I would like done. He helped me choose a very nice ash color. He assured me that the yellow in my hair would be removed and it was. Did an excellent job blow drying my hair straight and the color came out a beautiful chocolate brown. Was going to get a haircut but did not have time. Next time I will get a haircut there to see if I like it. Overall the price for one color, wash, and blow dry came out to be $80. Ben did a wonderful job. Definitely want him for my next visit. read more

I'm from out of town and happened to be passing through Doraville and decided it was high time for a haircut. So I walked into Sen Studios after yelping Asian hair salons in the area and I asked for Ben. I waited fifteen minutes to get called back and after about 40-45 minutes, he basically gave me exactly what I had described: a no-maintenance, choppy angled bob with side bangs. He also styled it very nicely and told me how to style it at home. It was a very good cut for a fair price. Definitely check this place out!! read more

Simply put, I love this place! I have natural African American hair and was shocked that this salon was even recommended to me. Clearly I'd never had my hair done at an Asian salon and didn't trust that the stylist would have enough experience with it, but Ben is a jack of all trades! Ben can be pretty quiet unless you continuously engage him but he really knows how to straighten and curl my thick curly hair! The only reason I'm not giving this salon 5 stars is b/c long after my hair has been done here I can smell the burned hair smell whenever I wash my hair and it lingers for about a month. perhaps they need to use a better heat protectant or use a lower setting on the flat iron but I do love the way Ben makes my hair look and I do LOVE the price! So far I recommend him for the following services: Straightening, curling, trims (don't worry it's safe. Ben makes sure not to cut your hair when you ask for a trim, however if you have allowed your split ends to grow too long then, well what do you expect?), and hair cuts. The next service I plan to go in for is color. Super excited! read more

Ben is amazing! He has my kinky threads straight as Korean hair, lol. He's great with the scissors too!

Getting service as a non Chinese person is like winning the lottery. Been here before and was about the same service as last so unfortunately will be my last. Firstly, whoever greets you says yes to everything or 15 minutes to wait without a clue of understanding you. The wait was over an hour with no organization and when I saw others getting called up who came later then me with without any appointment I went to confront them to only find out the racist lady that signed me in actually never understood what I came for. Without an apology, it was back to the waiting list of another hour. Very shady and disrespectful establishment. Beware to anyone that does not speak fluent Chinese. Not American friendly! read more

I'm Asian so this place works great for me. I'm not a big small talker so I enjoy coming in and getting my haircut, a long shampoo/head massage, and out the door. Price is very reasonable as well. read more

I will definitely not come back here again. I got a hair cut from the youngest guy at this salon over this weekend. He cut the upper part of hair too short while leaving the bottom long and now it looks so silly. He cut my hair so quick too (~ 15 mins). When I pay for my hair cut, I expect them to take time with my hair. read more

Wilson cut my hair! Exactly how I wanted! And he spoke okay English!! I have long hair btw, so a cut + hair wash + blow dry for $25! That's a pretty good price because when they washed my hair they also massage ur head for a good 15 min plus a good 10 min massage to wash it. Will go back! : ) : ) read more

Jack did a fantastic job on my hair today. And his prices are the best in town. Be sure and ask for jack when you go. He is the BEST

We took our 5 year old and 2 year old boys for a haircut. 5 year old got a great style, 2 year old just a trim. Wilson was great with them and we were really happy. Compared to the usual $20 kids haircuts this place was a steal and they both looked great. read more

3 of us went here for a perm one for highlights and a haircut. We sure lucked out these guys were awesome. They went above and beyond. I am disabled and they constantly made sure I was comfortable. We all looked like rock stars when we left. On a scale. Of 1-10 I'd give them an 11 read more

Went for the first time today, and was pleasantly surprised by service. Very good haircut, fantastic shampoo/ head massage, all for a very reasonable price. Recommend this salon to everybody, but especially to people with "asian" hair read more

I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO THIS PLACE. Before I let them touch my hair, I showed them a picture of the hair color I wanted, and they can't seem to be more positive that they are able to do it for me. I got a guy named Jack. I freaked out with the color that came out afterwards. I showed them a grayish blue color, and what came out was neon green. I SERIOUSLY THINK HE WAS COLOR BLINDED. In addition, he treated my hair so brutally. It was unacceptable since I spend so much money and time to keep my hair as healthy as possible (even though I love getting color for my hair :( ). I went home and found a lot of hair dye color sticking on my neck and scalp, and it was really hard to get them off. So at the end I did not have the color I want and my hair is all fried and dead. Need to cut them short soon. I would not recommend this place at all ! read more

I don't get my hair cut often because I grow it out long and chop it off short for donation. This was my 1st time to Sen Salon. Staff were friendly. They were busy, so I had a little wait (hadn't made an appointment), which was fine. I explained my plan to donate my hair. Ben was a bit concerned that I'd have to cut my hair very short to make it work, and mentioned that to me. I was fine with it. He made some adjustments to make it work and still give me a very nice, hassle free haircut with layers, which was exactly what I wanted (he seemed to know without me having to describe it in detail). He carefully cut the hair off in sections so the haircut wouldn't be too short (as he was concerned it would be if he just lopped off my ponytail), then carefully laid the sections with the ends lined up so they'd still be usable for donation, then rubberbanded them up and put them in a bag for me. The haircut was just what I was looking for -- cute yet professional, and easy to manage. Ben was very friendly and down-to-earth. Will definitely return in the future! read more
