    The Worst place to go for Highlighting of Hair. A prior reviewer lamented how the people here "do not listen" to the customer. The same thing happened to me. The stylist (Cameron) not only failed to give my hair any highlights (as I had specifically requested prior to and during my appointment), she also tried to claim that if I looked at my hair in the sunlight (rather than their streaked mirrors), the highlights would (magically?) appear! I've attached a photo taken immediately after a visit to Cherry Blossom showing that no highlights of any kind are visible. The cashier obviously agreed with the lack of highlights in my hair yet charged me full rate and told me I could "return in two weeks for a free service". Are they kidding? Go back? Never. It would be $100 cheaper (with better outcome) to buy a bottle of Revlon or Clairol Highlighting product and do it myself. Don't waste your money or time going here. [As a side note: they don't have any type of hair heaters to help set product - so the colorist placed a folded towel (yes folded!) on top of my head - believing by doing so that would help set the dye....OMG, the warning lights to flee from this salon began at that moment...and never stopped.)

    The ladies are all very lovely people but the service and 5 hours later. My hair looks like I fell in bronzer. Looked better than walking in. I can't say I will ever recommend anyone coming here. Want to get gaslighted? stay away. These are the type thY blame the client for not expressing clearly, yet when they reiterate what I need we are on the same page. Yet the results are far from it. I should've told them they are we wrong in the process. I dont care if I'm not a stylist, I've gotten my hair done in one sweep that look like the ref. Here are some more excuses I typically hear from bad places "it's the lighting in here" 'it's just a different art form" "it'll lighten up later" "I promise you'll look good when you get home" Or some comment on why our eyes are wrong. Or try to play it off like itll be good. They still got their money. I even told them that I had a horror story and guess what? it's The same outcome. They put it on the client for not knowing what they need. All I see is what they haven't done they haven't asked the questions Rather took on something far off. If an image couldn't express what I needed then it's evidently the skills and ego of another stylist that claims they know. Just stop an hear what im asking for. I should've walked out there and not pay. Horrific. Did I ever use the word brass? Yeah blame the client for their lack of understanding on hair. Never trust this business. This is also leaving out every detail I described to them, interactions and the stylists. I do believe in saving clients from coming to a place that advertises what they clearly don't know. It started off fine then after the blow dry I noticed it was so dark. The manager then redid my hair. What you see is the 2nd time. At the end when she said "you'll like it it'll lighten up"and "do you use purple shampoo? it'll help with when it becomes brassy " I knew it was horrible. It's already brassy. Even the way one of the ladies blow my bangs. Its like, just give me the hair dyer, I blow my hair better than this. Does my hair truly have dimension? no. but sure we can say it's a different creative expression. They went to school for it. This isn't and shouldn't be the end of their creative growth. They just stop growing. Ironic. This result is amateur at best and it looks like I could've just bought carmel hair coloring and do it for $8. I'm actually quite appalled fuming with anger by the waste of time and money. I wish I never walked in here today. They should Go find a wig to do artist expressions just not on my hair ever.

    Money piece

    I asked for a caramel reddish balayage, with a money piece that was lighter than everything else, with both being very blended. The outcome was quite unexpected. I honestly had a lot of trust in this place because it had such great reviews and pictures. The hair dresser did not ask many questions, but I thought I gave enough information to her for her to deliver what I wanted. Unfortunately, my hair did not come out how I thought it would; it's not blended, nor is it quite the color I wanted. Although the staff were very nice, the most important part of a hair salon - fulfilling what was requested - was just not there. Like shown on the picture of my balayage, my hair looks like streaks of different colors, no blend. As you can see on the picture of my money piece, they are two different colors. Also, the money piece looks grown out, and I asked for it to be small and get larger as it gets further down my hair. Ps I got this done yesterday.

    Wow great experience from booking to photos!! Olivia is an incredible stylist - totally felt heard and comfortable in her chair. She is honestly one of the best stylists I've ever been to! I will absolutely book again Vanessa took care of my blow out - she is also super kind and did an amazing job bringing this new look to life! So appreciate both of them. The space is super cute, too. Tons of great products - Vanessa recommended a hair spray that I can already see I will love. Can't wait to come back!

    My cut with Dee was over the top good; from the conversation to the actual quality of the cut I was blown away. I hadn't cut my hair in years, and it showed. I thought I liked the way it looked overgrown, but Dee gave me a cut I could feel confident about both then and now, 2 months later. I felt more than safe as everyone at the salon followed protocol and wore PPE. I will return to Cherry Blossom Salon and I will ask for Dee!

    Christi gave me the best blowout & styling of my life. My hair never holds a style, but Christi is magic and my hair stayed perfect for the whole night. If I lived in Atl, I'd be back for every single event of my life.

    policy listed online. The owner said "thank you for bringing our website to our attention. We will be changing that."

    TLDR; didn't like my color (way too dark) they refused to fix it despite their policy listed online, told me off on the phone for asking for it to be fixed. Not worth the $300 you spend. Attached are the pictures of what I asked for vs what I got. (Dark orange brown hair is me, pretty blonde girl is what I asked for. I came here for my second time recently. I came in with icy blonde hair and left with brown (100% not what I asked for). My stylist and I looked at a reference picture I had on my phone, multiple times, during my appointment to make sure she understood what I wanted. I'm sure the colorist did her best, so I will not be mentioning her name to bash her (plus, she is a super nice/cool person), but it came out super dark and not at all what I wanted. I tried to see if I could adjust to the color, since I don't like complaining. After 3 days, I just didn't feel like myself. Per their website they will "be happy to correct it (the color) with no additional charges" if you "are having challenges with your cut or color". I emailed them and told them I was having a hard time adjusting to it and it felt too dark. I received an email back telling me, essentially, too bad that's what you asked for. I called them and spoke with Vanessa, the manager. I explained to her that I showed a picture that we referenced about 5-6 times during my appointment so there is no way I asked for this. I tried to explain that I was just asking for what their website says they do. I assumed they stood by their work. Vanessa proceeded to yell at me and tell me off. She said she heard me ask for this (though she was not there that day multiple people had told me). And that they did what I asked for so they wouldn't fix it. I explained to her what their website said and said I wasn't complaining about the stylist, that it was just darker than I wanted and I would like it to be fixed. (My boyfriend heard the conversation on speaker phone and told me not to go there because with the way the MANAGER was speaking to me, they would retaliate and totally mess my hair up). After 10 minutes of her yelling at me, I asked to speak with the owner. She told me the owner wasn't in so I asked if she could call me tomorrow. Vanessa goes "yep" and hangs up on me. 5 minutes later the owner called me. She told me, just as Vanessa did, their website is wrong. They don't fix your color if you don't like it. They will "only fix it if your hair is pink or green". What?? I tried to explain where I was coming from and how pink, green, or brown, it shouldn't make a difference. Eventually she ended up telling me I could have my money back. They don't stand by their work, if your hair doesn't come out the way you want they won't fix it. I have never spent $300 on my hair just to be yelled at, told I'm wrong, and tough luck. Definitely will not be returning here. There are more affordable salons in the area that will do what you want, and fix it if you aren't satisfied. Update!!! Owner called me very quickly after I posted this review. She yelled at me the whole time, expressing her frustration with my review. She wanted me to take it down. She told me that because she refunded my money the situation was done and I shouldn't post my review. She said that she was going to respond and say I am lying, I told her I would post text message screen shots between us to prove I'm not, to which she said "please don't." Be very careful doing business here. I have a feeling there aren't many bad reviews because she has people remove them.

    Absolutely horrible job by Vanessa. When i left the salon it looked decent. This is after one wash. Orange/gold hair and the detail is terrible. Went elsewhere to have this mess fixed.

    Ask the Community - The Cherry Blossom Salon

    Hi! When your stylists do foil highlights, do they paint the entire hair strand? After years of blonde highlights I have breakage, and I was told that may be the reason. Trying to find someone who will focus on the top/roots. Thanks

    What steps do you take to ensure a hygienic and clean environment in the salon?

    Good question. We followed the state board of Georgia regulations for sanitation. Our stations are at least 6 feet apart, to ensure that we have the most airflow throughout the salon. We are constantly spraying down any surfaces, like shampoo bowls,… 

    Does Kristen still work here?

    Kristen has not worked at Cherry Blossom since June.

    Is parking relatively difficult to find near the salon? I noticed there was only street parking available. Are there any tips to find good parking especially if we will be at the salon for a long period of time?

    Hi Tiffany! Generally, street parking is available Monday-Friday until 6pm on the whole street. Best option, to never worry or drive around, is to park in the Beltline… 

    Hello! Due to a hormonal imbalance, I lost a lot of my hair over the last few years. My curls (3A) are intact but my hair is fragile so I've not had a proper cut recently. Are there stylists that are familiar with working with this kind of hair?

    Good Afternoon Kelsea. Thank you so much for your question. We are definitely familiar with this type of hair. If you would like we can schedule you for a free consultation, so that you may express your questions or concerns with a stylist.

    I want to extend my hair, do you guys familiar with Asian hair? Will I feel uncomfortable after doing hair extensions?

    Hello. Thanks for your question. Yes, we are familiar with Asian hair. We offer several methods of hair extensions to suit each clients particular needs. A consultation is required in order to discuss options with the guest. Consultations are always… 

    Is that possible to get everything done in a day ? My hair is black because I'm Asian and I want to make my hair pink or purple for the bottom part.

    Thanks for the question! Dark hair has several levels of pigment in the hair that would need to be "lifted" out. The hair must go through all the colors... red, red-orange, orange... you get the idea. To allow for a vivid color like pink or purple… 

    Are you familiar with Asian hair ? I want to make my hair dark brown and make it pink for the bottom part. Is that difficult for you or can you do well?

    We are familiar with Asian hair! I would suggest giving us a call to set up a consultation with one of our stylist so we can give you the most accurate answers to your questions. 404-856-0533

    Do you guys use olaplex?

    Yes, we do use Ollaplex. We have several bond builders and other solutions for problematic hair. Sometimes, a new coloring regimen or at home care can help. Give us a call and we will walk you though all options.

    Do you guys do consultations?

    Yes, we do. Consultations are always free. They can be booked online through our website, thecherryblossomsalon.com/book-online, or by giving us a call at 404-856-0533. We would love to discuss your hair, skin care, bridal, or eyelash desires.

    Has anyone had experience here as an African American customer?

    Hello. We service all hair types. Bri specializes in textured services and styles. We invite you to give us a call or book online. We can take care of you.

To be fair, I made a mistake and thought my appointment was at 9:30 when it was actually at 9:00. When Cheron called me at 9:10 I immediately apologized and even offered twice to reschedule if that was easier. Instead she just asked for my ETA in an irritated tone and said she'd see me soon. From the minute I got there the whole appointment felt tense. I asked for a simple trim, some face framing pieces, and something low maintenance since I don't spend a lot of time styling my hair. It didn't feel like a difficult request but I felt like my preferences were an inconvenience. Even the shampoo was so rough it was uncomfortable instead of relaxing. The haircut itself turned out nice but what really shocked me was the finish. I paid $150 and expected at least a basic styling. Instead, my hair was blow dried with her fingers... no round brush, no comb, no straightener, no curls. Nothing. I genuinely couldn't believe that was the finished result. I'm happy I ended up with a decent haircut but the overall experience felt uncomfortable from start to finish and nowhere near the level of service I expected.

She was very patient with me and had some great ideas about what we could do with my hair -- mostly because I'm always kinda' like, meh, do whatever you think would look good. The color was nice. The cut was great. Heather is skilled, knows what she's doing, and really made me feel like I was in good hands. I think my cut was ~$80, and my color plus foils was ~$290 -- a little pricey but it's quality work. I'll be going back. The shop and atmosphere: The salon is filled with art for sale by local artists, which I really appreciate. There are also offerings of beer, wine, coffee, tea, and water for customers -- I mean, it doesn't get much better than that. In terms of parking, there are spots on the street nearby, but the salon also shares a small private lot with the business next door (facing the salon, it's the driveway to the right) which is a lifesaver, especially for that busy area of town. The receptionist and others stylists all seems friendly, hip, and chill -- in a relaxed way and not a douchey way. I can totally imagine folks of all ages feeling welcome there. Again, I'll be going back. The only slightly odd thing about my whole experience was that the salon keeps your credit or debit card info on file to hold you accountable for last-minute cancelations, those who are atrociously late, and whatnot. And I totally get it -- it's a business and stylists lose money when that kinda' thing happens (which I'm sure is annoyingly frequent). However, it was still weird to hand over my financial information for them to store. At least it makes paying easier at the end of the appointment. TL;DR: Heather is great, shop is nice, there's free beer and parking, don't no-show like a jerk.

I heard from many locals that this is the place to get your hair cut done and done right. As an Asian Male, there is truly something unique about our hair. As long as you are flexible with anyone to cut your hair, then you can be seen ASAP. I always call beforehand and I always get to be seen same day within the next 2 hours. I only had two people cut my hair here, Michelle and Ken???? Ken is a new guy with dyed hair and speaks limited English. Michelle has been doing this for a while. I loved their old location but this new location definitely helps their salon shine. Lots of natural lighting and room for them to really allow an open space concept with seating throughout for others to see the magic happens. For the price of $28 before tip for a male's haircut, I think it is a fair price to ask in this economy and prime location. Hairwashing and shampoo is included for before and after the cut. Also if you want them to style your hair and prepare it for the day then that is also included with gel/wax/hair spray (your choice). Use cash if you can to avoid the 3% credit charge fee. Highly recommend this place. They will treat you well! Thank you Sen Salon for being you. Support this local one of a kind Asian business.
