Joseph is not just a great stylist. He is a great conversationalist. I have a haircut next week and I am looking forward to both. The location is convenient and I like being able to hit the grocery store and Athens Cooks/Farm Burger afterwards.

I have been seeing Joseph for the past few years. I’m a super low-maintenance hair girl but I am VERY picky. Joseph is able to take whatever style I am describing and bring it to life—no inspo pics or anything! He seriously makes hair dreams come true and will give you exactly what you ask for, if not better. Prices…
