I had a wonderful experience here. The staff is wonderful. My stylist Tiffany was incredible. She spent so much time helping me decide what I wanted. Helped me with my vision. I couldn't be more happy with the result. She shaped my face beautifully with a layered modern shag with balayage. Her and the staff are so…
Tiffany and Jailyn are both truly awesome! I've had nothing but great experiences every time I've gone to them for a cut and color. I love their attention to detail. They always take the time to make sure everything is just right, and I leave feeling so happy with the results. They're both talented, professional and…
Zac was amazing! Would recommend going here to anyone.
Don’t walk, RUN and book your appointment with Cheysi! She never fails! Only person I really trust with my hair! (I’ve had some traumatic experiences haha) I just went lighter for the summer, and to say I’m obsessed is an understatement!! You’re the best girl!!
I walked in with both nervousness and excitement. The entire staff was very welcoming-offering range of water, tea, coffee, and making sure I felt comfortable. Jailyn was my stylist and let me just say. That woman is filled with talent and a very distinguished background in coloring and what fits best for each…
This is my 2nd time seeing Cheysi and she never disappoints. 1st visit was to fix my fried brassy hair (that I did myself) to an ashy lived in blonde. This visit I got a reverse balayage with long layers. She’s very attentive and always exceeded my expectations. My hair looks straight from a Pinterest board and for a very reasonable price. Thanks Cheysi!
Cheysi is the BEST. I’ve had so many stylists over the years but since I met Cheysi 5 years ago, I’ve only used her for haircuts and color. She’s so fun and easy to talk to, fast but precise with her work. Cheysi has magic hands, she always exceeds my hair expectations!
Jailyn is the absolute best! She listens and makes great recommendations. I love Craig McQueen salon. It’s always a fantastic experience
Absolutely loved Tiffany. Came in with a vague idea of what I want, she asked me all the right questions and got me the perfect shade of my balayage. ❤️
I’ve been going to Tiffany for years, and I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair. I got highlights done today and, as always, she was incredibly precise, gentle, and truly listened to what I wanted. Tiffany is kind, patient, and her work is always flawless — exactly the result I picture in my head. If…
Always a good experience everybody is nice in the salon
Jailyn and all the staff at the salon are amazing! She’s so kind and insightful. My cut/color turned out better than I could’ve imagined!
I absolutely adore Tiffany!! I have trusted Tiffany with my hair the last 2 maybe 3 years now? She has always done amazing with getting my dark black hair to be the perfect blonde without the extra damage. And I recently decided to go to a “bronde” look and was a bit hesitant so she made sure it wasn’t a huge change…
Anna was amazing, I love my hair and I felt pampered
Zac is absolutely amazing. He does such a fantastic job on my hair every time, and is so lovely to speak with. He’s an absolute master at blending out bayalage. He always educates me on my hair, which I so appreciate, and makes the time go by quickly with his fun conversation!
This was my first time and this hair salon, and Zac was by far the best I've been to in a long LONG time! He was super friendly, made me feel like I'd been going to him for years, and was helpful with his tips and tricks. He listened carefully to what I wanted - I got a cut and balayage and it's perfect, I love it so much!! 🫶🏻
Genesis is excellent at what she does. I loved the color and the cut she gave me.
This salon is lovely. Cheysi is a miracle worker! I hadn’t done anything to my hair in years. I came in with years of growth and grays. My window of time was also small. I imagined I’d be running out with wet hair hiding in a hat. I left gorgeous! Not only was she extremely pleasant and professional, she transformed…
After being very disappointed with the impersonal service I received at another area salon, I booked an appointment with Zac hoping I'd find someone who would give me bespoke treatment. Zac delivered! He was genuinely interested in my hair health and color goals and talked me through every single step he had…
Genesis was so amazing. She had the perfect suggestions as this was my first time getting a salon cut. Would definitely recommend her if you are looking for a change. 10/10
Love this salon! Cheysi gave me exactly the cut and color I was looking for. I was nervous getting Asian hair highlighted but the balayage turned out beautifully!
The staff went above and beyond to ensure my experience would be one to remember. Couldn’t be happier with how my stylist Zac slayed my hair! Front desk was amazing and everyone was very knowledgeable about Aveda and any questions I had.
Cheysi was very personable, talented and explained the process in detail. Today was my first time there. Great experience. I will definitely be back.
If you’re debating on starting to go to a new/fancier salon, definitely go here. They will not disappoint you, it will change your life :)
Genesis did my hair exactly how I wanted! So easy to talk to and fun! Highly recommend
Omgosh! One word CHEYSI! She is amazing! I recently relocated to Atlanta and I was terrified at the thought of having to find someone who understood my hair and its needs. From the moment I met her she made me feel at ease. She took the time to understand my desired color and cut. She achieved the cut and color I…
Cheysi was amazing... She listened to my needs and desire for a change, and a more manageable color management program and she accomplished a beautiful result for me. I am thrilled and would recommend Cheysi to anyone, she is a 10 star stylist, not just a 5. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Genesis was very good.
Another amazing color & cut with Joelle!! She can do wonders for your hair 💕
Had the most amazing and greatest experience at Craig McQueen Salon thanks to Genesis! She explained the process of my balayage very well and made me feel comfortable at all times. Came out of the salon happy with exactly what I wanted. Thank you Genesis! Not forgetting to mention that is a very clean space with super friendly staff!
If I could give more stars I absolutely would. From walking into the salon to a warm welcome through to walking out with fresh balayage, cut and brows, I couldn’t be happier. Jailyn transformed my look & made me feel human again!! I’m visiting from out of town and so bummed that I can’t make this my regular salon. 100% recommend!!
Caroline made this such an awesome first time experience. Not only did my hair coloring come out exactly how I wanted it to look, she answered any questions I had while also making me feel comfortable in a new place. I would definitely come back again.
Cheysi is amazing! She really cares about your hair’s health, and she will let you know upfront how to reach your hair goals. The salon in general is really great as well! Everyone was super helpful and sweet :)
this was only my 2nd experience at a more high end salon, and my last experience (at a different salon years ago) was really dissapointing so i was pretty nervous. i booked an appointment for balayage with caroline and told her what happened forever ago at the other salon. she made sure we would get as close as…
Genesis did a very good job with my balayage, it was the way I wanted and expected, I really liked that she advised me what was best for my hair. I love that she takes your hair's integrity into consideration and walks you through the whole process.
AMAZINGGGG!!!! Jailyn She did exactly what I wanted. She made me feel comfortable. She always explained what was she putting on, so I could be aware. She took her time didn’t rush. She did it with so much passion even when it was closing time she still took her time to blow out my hair. I will 100% be coming back to her. Love her!
I loved Cheysi!! She was so considerate of what I wanted done while also using her knowledge to do what would look best. I trusted her throughout the entire process! I booked my appointment online last minute so there wasn't time to blow dry and style, but she made sure that I knew that well before my appointment in…
Another AMAZING 🤩 experience with Joelle! I always feel great when I leave!
