Sören Salon
www.sorensalon.com
3229 Paces Ferry Pl.
Buckhead
404.869.4247
One of Elle magazine's Top 100 Salons in 2012, this is such a sleek. sophisticated kind of place. You feel elegant as soon as you walk in, and the salon just oozes professionalism. The owner, Soren, is German, and you definitely feel that German sense of efficiency going on here. The black and white monochrome decor is perfect in a place that thrives on crispness and creativity. You'll pay anything from $50-$80 for a cut and blow, more for Soren himself (book early!). Colors and highlights are a specialty, as is permanent weaving - very popular.

Steve Hightower

646 Lindbergh Way Northeast
404.264.9006
Gloriously decadent hair studio that specializes in very creative, bold, bright styles. You'll know this as soon as you walk in, it's dazzling, not so much in a glitzy sense, but in a cornucopia-of-collage sense. The floor is made up of hundreds of glossy magazine covers, and there are antique chairs, lush upholstery and vast mirrors everywhere. It really is a place to fire up the senses, so you can definitely expect a haircut with a difference here, in a good way. Hightower is an artist, and all his stylists are encouraged to let clients express themselves through their hair. They even do wigs here, as well as extensions, and keratin smoothing. Definitely a salon for the bold and the beautiful.

Soda Salon
www.sodasalon.com
3090 Roswell Rd.
Roswell
770.642.1392
This is a funky, contemporary salon, voted 'Salon of the Year' by Salon Today magazine. The hair stations are state of the art, and there's art of a different kind all over the walls - original pieces by the owners' favorite daubers. With creativity like this all around, it's easy to imagine how creative they can be with your hair. Prices vary considerably, with five different 'style levels'. They're so technically good here, though, that you can save yourself quite a few dollars by going in at Level One, because you're still going to get a fantastic cut from a relative novice. They do beauty packages, too, where you can combine a cut, color, conditioner or deeper treatment, and save on individual pricing.

Salon Bella Dama

1100 Hammond Dr., Suite 440B
678.456.3888
Upscale salon in the Publix Plaza, with modern, chic decor. They cater for all cultures, and have stylists who have their own specialties, be it coloring, straightening, weaving or highlighting. They really do want to make a fuss of you here, so you can just sit back and relax on the lovely, big orange chairs and let them work their magic on you. You can just as easily come in here for a no-nonsense maintenance trim, as a full cut, style and blow. Their special treatments include Moroccan oil hair treatment and Aphogee treatment. If you're looking for a regular salon in Atlanta, this one is hard not to return to.

Grow Salon

627 East College Avenue
404.373.7775
This very spacious loft/industrial space in Decatur is a triumph of comfort, design and quirkiness. They're a Bumble & Bumble salon, so they're always on top of things, fashion-wise, and they're big on customer service, too. You'll get a glass of wine on arrival, and from thereon in, be treated to superior pampering and cozy chat. Relax in the black and chrome barber chairs, and let the stylists do their thing. They're especially good at executing cuts that really flatter your face shape, particularly if you have short hair. Their deep keratin treatments are also a real treat, and it's a quite beautiful place to sit and unwind for a couple of hours. Maybe you'll get another glass of wine...

Dry Bar

102 West Paces Ferry Rd. Northwest
404.382.5310
Innovative salon that does just blowouts, no cuts or color. Single girls love their hair, and we want to look fabulous all the time, but that doesn't mean we have the time or expense to get cuts all the time. We should be able to go into a salon and get a fantastic blowout and add-ons, at our convenience. That's what this place does. From as little as $35 you can just sit back and let their expert blowmasters transform your look and leave you looking and feeling like a movie star. From a basic blowout, you can add extras like a scalp massage (heavenly!) or a hair shot (quick rejuvenating treatment). The whole concept is designed for girls on the go, and the salon itself is funky, light and bright, and just the place to get a pep-up during your lunch break, or before you hit the town.

Studio Oliver

789 Argonne Ave.
Midtown Atlanta
404.607.9924
This Midtown salon is where all Atlanta's music execs, actors and artists come to get their hair styled. It's a creative place, with bold red furniture, bright wall art, lots of wood and metal and a funky, urban feel to it. They have parking out front, and they'll even greet you with a glass of beer or wine as you settle down to be pampered. All their cuts include a luxury shampoo, scalp massage and blowdry, and they also offer keratin treatments, perms and relaxers. It's a happening place, so if you're one of those girls who likes to go where the In Crowd go, this is one of those salons.

RuMM Color Studio
www.rummcolorstudio.com
5815 Windward Parkway
770.817.7866
This is a super-sleek salon up on Windward Parkway, a nice, spacious store with incredibly friendly staff and a real community feel. You'll feel part of the gang, coming here, and the fact that they're out of the city adds to the relaxed vibe. The stylists are true artists, so you know you're going to get something a bit special. Despite the name, it's not just color they do here, it's the whole gamut of hair services, from design cuts and keratin treatments, to texture blowouts and highlights. Consultations are complimentary. They also work closely with local charities, so it's just one more great reason to give them your custom.

Van Michael Salon
www.vanmichael.com
39 West Paces Ferry Road, N.W.
404.237.4664
This world-class salon is for those single girls who love having runway hair. Each stylist is rigorously trained for at least two years, to the owner's exacting standards, and have to attend ongoing quarterly education courses. These guys are true experts in the latest, cutting edge hair designs! The salon set-up is also compartmentalized, so each staff member has their own specialty. If you're here for a cut, color and blowout, then you'll probably have three different people attending to you, to ensure you get the very best. Your appointment includes a consultation, scalp massage, free make-up touch up service and even instructions on how to blowdry and style your new hair properly, once you get home. The salon itself is very elegant and state of the art, with huge silver mirrors, black chairs and stylish lighting and flooring, so all in all, coming here is a real experience.
