Phenomenal, Melrose truly goes the extra mile in every regard. Been 3 times and I couldn’t imagine going to any other salon. Shoutout Ruby. 🌟
Simone did a wonderful job with my hair. She is so friendly and the conversation was wonderful. She executed the vision I had for my hair so well, and I am so beyond happy with the results. The haircut is AMAZING and the blowout she gave me lasted so long. I’m so happy and will be returning for sure! 😍
I've been in Atlanta a little over 10 years and, as someone from a small town who grew up with the same hair stylist all her life, I struggled to find someone here I trusted to give me consistently beautiful cuts that I felt were worth it. I'm so glad I happened to book with Chelsea E. a couple years ago. She's an…
Melrose is a fantastic and cute salon for hair cuts and colors. The best looks for summer with all the up to date styles and modern techniques for women. My girls love coming here!
Go here only if you want an amazing hairstylist. I had Aracely; she listens and cares not only about the hair but also about how the person is feeling. She walked me through every step, ensuring I was comfortable, and afterward explained how to maintain it. What an amazing experience!!
Ruby did me righhhhhhht! I cannot recommend this place enough. The service is wonderful and the stylists are amazing. I had struggled with a previous haircut and was a bit nervous to be in the chair again, but Ruby made me feel welcomed and heard as soon as I sat down. They cut my hair quite literally exactly how I…
Mary was so great! She made sure I knew what was going on at each step of the process. She was transparent about expectations and she exceeded them. I will be back for sure :)
Kaycee is truly the best. She’s been doing my hair for over 10 years, and I wouldn’t trust anyone else. Her color work is exceptional—especially balayage. She has an amazing eye for tone, dimension, and what actually suits you, and my hair always looks natural, healthy, and beautiful. Beyond her talent, Kaycee is…
Wonderful as always!!!
This was my first time with Jasmine - a true Master of her craft who didn't feel intimidated for a second by my request - a sharp bob cut on a thick wavy hair, damaged by previous with misfortunate use of texturizing scissors and uneven chops. After she was done I walked out with a cut and styling worth to be on a…
After rocking a man bun and beard for the past 10 years, I was ready for a major change — and honestly, a little nervous about it. I found Melrose & McQueen online as one of the top salons in Atlanta, and I couldn’t be happier that I did. David completely transformed my look and somehow made me look 10 years…
Christian always gets my hair just right! Every time I leave his chair, I feel confident and refreshed. He listens, gives amazing suggestions, and you can tell he truly cares about his clients. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to make your hair dreams come to life, Christian is your guy!
Spero did wonderful work on my hair! It was my first time seeing them, and it went so well, we booked our next session for January! My hair felt so good walking out of M&M. I also am obsessed with the ambiance, the new mural by the front desk, the mimosa with OJ in a skull shot glass!!! I love it here :)
Zoey was the best ever, she exceeded my expectations and she was super nice and professional. She made my hair look flawless!
Helena is absolutely amazing! She is always so patient and helpful with my questions. Her candor on what will and won’t work and steps to make changes are so appreciated. I’m having fun with my hair since I started going to her instead of it feeling like a chore!
LOVE LOVE LOVE CHRISTIAN!!! i will be going to him for as long as he’ll have me :)) he does amazing!!!
Susana was so great. She has a very kind and welcoming personality, and she did amazing at my haircut and style. Her assistant Aracely also had the same vibe. They are great and keep you very informed on how to care for your hair as well. I will be returning to them.
Truly the best experience here every time. Fallon is my girl. My hair has never looked or felt better 💛
I was so fortunate to be booked with Spero’s talented self! Highly recommend!
Love the energy and a person who knows how to deal with natural curls! Thanks Fallon! Will definitely be back!
Amazing! Professional, well trained in how to cut hair.
Had a wonderful experience with Susana, who made me feel comfortable and beautiful!
Ruby is the ABSOLUTE BEST!! She’s knowledgable, efficient and kind!!!! She has style like no other and always wears a smile!
I can always trust Ruby with all my most daring cuts!! I love catching up and learning how to style my new look <3
I went to Melrose & McQueen for the first time and saw Ruby. I had a fabulous experience. The salon is really lovely, the intake team is great. Ruby did such a great job with my hair. We discussed what I wanted and it came out great. I had base color and a hair cut. I'll be back for highlights. Thanks again Ruby!
Great men’s long hair cut from Fallon!
Susana was excellent! She took the time to help me figure out what I wanted . I went in there absolutely clueless on what I wanted. She gave me tips on how to care for my hair after my haircut. I honestly appreciated it so much. She’s truly amazing!
I trust Mary with my life (my hair). She is really good at translating my inspo onto my head. She is professional and super chill. Best hair cut of my life + highlights. Both have grown out amazing :) She was even nice enough to mix me a custom color conditioner for maintaining @home. First time also my hair wasn’t fried from bleach lol.
Brooke at MMQ is the best! Always listens to what I want to do and communicates openly about expectations. I leave feeling great about my hair - and myself - every time I'm in her chair 🙂 The whole staff is kind and welcoming and their new space is cool as hell
Got exactly what I asked for and super nice!
So happy with my cut and style - Valle is a perfectionist and really understood what I wanted😊
Trey is just an outstanding Hair Stylist. I’m lucky to have him. He really listens to me and is responsive. I always walk away feeling happier & with a fabulous hair cut from Trey. Love. The overall energy in Melrose & McQueen Salon.
Can not say enough about how wonderful this salon is..from the minute you walk in the door you are welcomed and appreciated by everyone..Kaycee has been my go to for years..she listens and knows exactly what I am looking for in style and color..hands down the best stylist and colorist in Atlanta. I travel from SW…
Nick is 10/10! He meets you where are with your hair journey! He has been giving me great cuts with at home achievable styles for years!
Service was awesome and I love my haircut
Falon was great as usual!!
As a man looking for my adult style (not a fade, which I did for 15 years) I wouldn’t trust anyone more.
This is a very cool salon! Jared always does a great job with my color and cut! And he is fun to be around too!;-)
Jared gave me the best haircut of my life. Kind, funny & welcoming. Couldn’t recommend him enough!
This place is amazing and great and chill place!! Staff are wonderful!!
Kaycee is amazing!!! I have been struggling with getting my hair where I want it for about a year now - she literally gave me the results I have been hoping for in my very first apt with her!! Not only is the color sooooo much better but my hair FEELS so much healthier! Also the vibe of the salon is so fun and laid back - can’t wait to come back :)
Brooke is the best hairstylist I have ever had and I do in fact trust her with my life. She makes every single vision I’ve ever had of my hair look 20x better and makes the many hours I typically spend in her chair go by in the blink of an eye. Shoutout to you Brooke you are an angel and a hair genius, thank you for always crushing it!!!! 🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼
Cute shop, friendly service, expert hairstyling. Montana was awesome; super friendly and clearly a Pro.
Wonderful time with David this morning! I’ll be back!
Helena is talented, professional, and friendly! She gave me a lovely head massage, took the time to talk through the haircut concept, and made sure everything was perfect before I walked out. I plan to return in a couple of weeks!
Zoey is the best! She is so knowledgeable, kind, and a true artist. The salon overall is such a vibey cool spot. Highly recommend
Kiana’s stellar. She’s become my regular stylist because she’s incredibly skilled at her craft and listens to me when/if I ever want to switch up my usual style. She’s kind and personable and I can’t recommend her enough!
I am so happy and love my hair!!! Nick did a phenomenal job and knew exactly how to proceed after I showed him a photo of what I was wanting. I left feeling like a new woman!! I’m very grateful I found a new salon! Everyone was so nice and very professional. Enjoyed every minute I was there!
Misti makes my ridiculously long hair look amazingly well styled and easy to maintain. I showed her a reference photo from Practical Magic (a clearly unattainable standard).... and my hair came out BETTER than the ref photo. I have so much thick, very long hair and she chiseled it into Magic. Love it. Love her.
it’s always a pleasure with ruby ;) i love my curly bob!!
Wow! Trey is phenomenal. They really listen to what the client wants and try to accomplish their dream hair. I highly recommend
Jared is AMAZING! I’ve never had a colorist get my blonde the way I truly wanted it since I started getting highlights 20+ years ago. Also, amazing skills with haircut/style! My hair looked so damaged and had split ends for days but they brought my hair back to life. Thank you SO much lovie. I look forward to seeing you all again in May!
Montana is the best! This was my third salon I tried in my area and I have been going to her ever since. She always takes her time with me to make sure I get what I am envisioning. Couldn’t recommend her enough!
Christian was incredible! Made my first experience at Melrose & McQueen the very best and I will be coming back! My favorite stylist moving forward.
I adore Melrose and McQueen every time I’ve gotten any service done here it’s been above and beyond perfection!
I've been going to Melrose & McQueen in Atlanta for 4 years now and they're the only people I trust with my hair. Specifically, their stylist Valle. She's absolutely incredible (I'm biased though because she's also a dear friend), and she knows how to take the vision in my head, customizing it to my complexion, hair…
I was recommended by a few friends who have been coming for a while now. The experience has been amazing. The atmosphere is very welcoming, everyone is so nice and I left with a style that looks as good as it makes me feel! Ruby is amazing and made the whole experience super easy and very personable.
I saw Montana for the first time and she did amazing! It looked exactly how I wanted it and she was so kind to me the whole process. Everyone in the salon is so nice too. I would highly recommend coming here.
Always have a wonderful experience here! I love the entire vibe of the salon and appreciate how welcoming the staff is. I highly recommend Brooke L.! I’ve been seeing her since 2023 and she always does amazing!
I LOVE how I feel and look when I leave Melrose and MCQueen! Every single time 🥰 10/10 - they get it!
Montana Malmos is a true master stylist and a gem at Melrose & McQueen in Inman Park! From the moment I sat in her chair, I knew I was in the hands of a highly skilled professional. Her attention to detail, expert technique, and ability to customize a look that perfectly suits my face shape and lifestyle are…
Alexis is amazing! Not only did she give me a beautiful and much needed haircut, but she also walked me through what she was doing. She also gave me the best scalp and neck massage! 10/10 will come back to see her.
First time coming and I asked for a 90s blowout, and it wasn’t delivered. Just delivered a straight hair with no curls even. Kinda upset.. but at least Customer service was good?
Christian did my hair, and it turned out incredible—far better than I ever anticipated for both the haircut and color. He asked great questions to understand exactly what I wanted and was so easy to talk to. I left the salon looking even better than I had envisioned. I highly recommend him to everyone! I loved my…
Kaycee is the absolute best! She's an angel of a colorist. I came to her with a million ideas and she was able to hone in on the perfect color for my complexion and goals. I can't recommend her or Melrose & McQueen enough.
Jasmine is the best. She knows what looks good and keeps me looking cool. I trust her to do whatever she thinks looks good for my hair and I’m always pleased with the outcome. She’s also warm and kind too I genuinely enjoy my time in her chair.
Mary absolutely killed it! She took my idea and made it even better! I have not had a hairstyle that has been able to pull off this cut on me until Mary did my hair! I want to go back and book her for my color soon! I drove from Woodstock to this salon and it is worth the drive to look at this good thanks to Mary!
Alexis was incredible! She saw my vision and made it reality. I am more than impressed and happy with my hair. So sweet, I love her!
I’ve been coming to see Trey for 7 years now & I'm still always just as happy as the first time he ever did my hair! ❤️ Everyone in the salon is very good at what they do.
THe absolute best salon on the eastern seaboard and beyond!! Jessica and her team are like a well oiled machine! Have never loved my hair more!
Jared never disappoints! Always feel so beautiful and taken care of with him <3
Olivia slayed my hair. I feel so confident and cute! PLEASE book her, she’s awesome.
Loved Zoe and like the new digs! Very posh!
This was the best haircut I’ve ever received in my life. The whole experience was amazing! I’ve never seen my hair so curly! Chelsea was amaaaaazing! She was super knowledgeable and really walked me through a potential routine and how to care for my curly hair, which no one has ever done so thoroughly. If you have…
Misti is the best! Thanks for giving my hair life again!
Great experience! The salon is nice and very comfortable and Ruby was so friendly and professional. I got exactly the haircut I wanted despite not knowing how to communicate what I wanted. Couldn’t recommend the salon or Ruby more highly!
Kaycee is absolutely amazing! She works magic with color and is the best of the best at brunette balayage! She is an absolute sweetheart and is so easy to talk to. I always look forward to whenever I get to see her! Melrose and McQueen has such a cool vibe about it. I would definitely recommend going to see Kaycee…
I have never had anyone do my hair/hair color as good as Zoey!!
Kaycee has an incredible eye for making my basic brown hair rich, shiny, and dimensional. She’s got an amazing vision and energy to match. It’s a pleasure coming back every 6 weeks. But honestly, it’s worth it just for her shampoo/head massages alone…THOSE NAILS!!! 🫠
Laura (and Aaron) are uhhhmaZing💫. Best Haircut and Crown-straightening 👑 I’ve ever had in Atlanta! It was truly a spiritual experience❣️
Love Trey and Christian. So appreciate all they did for me today! Would recommend them to anyone!
David was great. Nice, proficient, and attentive. Highly recommended! It’s also nice that I could sit at the bar sipping on a cocktail while waiting for my spouse to finish with her haircut : )
Genesis was amazing! She did a great job with my cut and color.
Amazing experience! Fallon took me last minute for a blowout when everyone else in ATL was booked. She’s so fun and extremely knowledgeable and helped me figure out a plan to get my hair in the best shape. I already rebooked and can’t wait to go back. The place itself is gorgeous. Complementary drink and cool loft style ambience. I’m a big fan.
Laura and Aaron (aka 'Hey Hey') did an absolutely fantastic job on my hair! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. They clearly know their craft, bringing skill, creativity, and attention to detail that made me feel completely at ease and thrilled with the results. My hair looks better than ever, and I…
I am from NYC - I must say this was fantastic. Great stylist amazing place and a vibe that was spot on
I drove from Knoxville to Atlanta to have Kaycee do a makeover on my very grown out balayage for my new job. I am absolutely sold and will be making this drive for my hair appointments from now on. It is so hard to find a true brunette specialist, and was absolutely worth the travel. She went so far above and beyond…
Absolutely great experience! The salon is gorgeous and everyone is so kind. And my hair looks phenomenal!!!! Thank you Genesis! You made my month with this hair. I lovveeee it!
I can't express how happy I am with my color! I am so impressed with how spot on my color is in comparison to the reference I shared; Ruby absolutely killed it! I also appreciate how much Ruby took my own thoughts and preferences into consideration, and really tried to work with the vision I had for my hair. The…
My first introduction to this salon, was blown away by the service and experience. Can’t wait to be back!
I recently had my hair highlighted and cut by Kaycee, and I couldn’t be happier with my hair! She took the time to listen to what I wanted and offered great suggestions to enhance my look. The highlights are exactly what I envisioned—natural yet vibrant. Her attention to detail and professionalism made the entire experience enjoyable. Highly recommend!
Chelsea did an amazing job! Her work was incredibly efficient, and I absolutely love my hair color. She is a true professional, and I'm thrilled with both my haircut and color. I highly recommend her to everyone! I can't wait to come back next month or even next week for a blow dry, and I'm excited to explore more of Chelsea's services!
Chelsea was great! She put me at ease as a first time curly hair client. She listened to what changes I wanted to make and made them happen! Everyone was professional and the team communicated quickly when I needed to reschedule due to illness.
My second time getting my hair cut by Olivia and its been a great experience each time. She leaves you feeling great and looking great!
Great atmosphere and the stylists really take the time to learn what brought you in and do a great job getting a good look for you.
Zoey is so sweet and talented. I always appreciate the way she answers my questions about products and styling, and I always end up leaving with exactly the hairstyle I hope for when I come in. I am so grateful! Also, the new salon looks *amazing* 😍 what a treat ❤️
Melrose & McQueen has a new spade and it’s GORGEOUS. I’ve been here twice and my stylist, Montana, is amazing! She is so attentive to what you want while counseling you on how to get there and still keep your hair healthy. It’s super important to me that my stylist be honest with me and Montana does that while still…
Great first time experience with Trey & Christian! Trey took the time to hear what I had in mind and also clearly explained how to go about it! Really happy with the end result! :)
A wonderful experience through and through! They can do anything! Everyone is SO talented and kind!!
David is the best! He has a keen eye for detail and a genuine passion for his craft, which truly sets him apart. I am very particular about my haircut and so happy I found him when I relocated to Atlanta; I am a customer for life! So happy he has decided to stay.
Fallon always does such a good job, I’m so happy to have found her ✨
When you walk into Melrose & McQueen you're warmly greeted and made to feel welcome. It was like walking into an Oasis in a desert of salons. The stylists are in their chosen clothing, not the uniform of some salons, which creates an immediate trust that your haircut, color or style won't come from a training manual…
Love coming here to see alexis! She does such a great job
Love Melrose & McQueen and love Jessica. She’s a freaking rockstar!!!
The hippest salon in the city. I have been a client for 7 years. Outstanding!
I personally went to ruby who did my hair so awesomeness! I feel very confident in myself now! Ruby did such an excellent job :)
I’ve been meaning to leave a review for some time for my amazing friend and hairstylist Chelsea! She really takes the time to formulate exactly what you want for your hair and puts in such extensions detail to make you absolutely love your hair. Everything I leave the salon I am obsessed with my hair even more then…
Gena was great! She listened and did exactly what I wanted.
The place is magic! The minute you walk in you feel uplifted. All the ppl working there are super nice, their service is fantastic and service is top notch!
Experienced and knowledgeable stylist! Hair looks and feels amazing and healthy! Recommend 💯
Helena is always wonderful! I haven't had This good of a stylist in many years, so glad to have found this place.
I saw Kaycee who was amazing in person, really listens to what you want and results are amazing!
I’ve been seeing Montana for almost two years and I always leave absolutely thrilled with my cut and color. She’s taken me from bright blonde back to brunette and back again more times than I can count. Montana is so talented and an absolutely lovely person.
I cannot say enough good things about this salon or Montana. She gets is perfect every time and takes the effort to really listen to what you’re looking for in a style, color, or cut.
Fallon knows hair inside and out, she understands the growth cycle and how it should be cut accordingly. She was able to take some sub-par bangs from a previous stylist and re-transform my hair into a layered masterpiece.
Dianet was absolutely fantastic today. Her focus on my satisfaction with the color change I was looking for was top notch. She was extremely attentive, ensuring my comfortability in the salon and with my results, which were PERFECT and came out exactly as I wanted. My overall experience at the salon was amazing, I can’t wait to return! Dianet is a 10/10 !
Great experience all around! Emily is the best!
Helena is amazing! My cut and color is better than I could have hoped for - thank you!!!!
Got my hair cut by Helena and it was the best salon experience I've had to date. The vibes were great, the staff was kind, and Helena is an incredible stylist. I highly reccomend anyone thinking about trying this place out take the plunge and book an appointment!
Friendly accommodating and know their $h/t. Love this place.
Valle was amazing! She was so kind and competent. She did a great job with my hair and was so patient with how hesitant I am to cut my hair. I loved the bar at the front, the high-quality products used and the cute aesthetic of the space. I just wish there was easier parking/valet/parking validation.
Emily, Mary & Kelly are the best. Helped me and my family in getting our hair looking the best.
Great overall environment and energy, friendly staff, large space. The vibe walking into looks like a converted warehouse. The black and white walls in contrast to the live plants set the scene. Walk into check-in with a full bar option. Btw rec the mimosa very refreshing. Olivia took the time to ask about my hair…
Ruby took me from Drab to Fab! I can feel like I’m walking the red carpet or the main character in anime haha Rubys style is so unique and quirky! They’re so so sweet and dorky in the cutest and best way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ five stars!
My birthday blowout was amazing thanks to Chelsea!! I had the best time and I loved my hair
Kiana was excellent - this was my first time at Melrose & McQueen and she executed exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely be back!
Christian was wonderful! I love the way my hair turned out and he was so much fun to chat with. The cut, the color, the vibes, everything was great.
Olivia was great!
Great salon with friendly staff! I’ve seen Kaylan for years and trust her 1000%, because I have NO IDEA what to do with my hair! I always leave feeling lighter and looking more put together, at least from the neck up 😂
Montana is an incredible hairstylist! She listened in detail to understand what I had in mind and the cut is exactly what I was hoping it would be. I was impressed at how quickly she worked - I was in and out in great time, which I so appreciate. Montana is also incredibly kind, and very comfortable and easy to be…
I had a great experience and a fabulous haircut! Fallon is an amazing stylist!
I highly recommend Fallon for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and down-to-earth stylist. From the moment you sit in her chair, you know you're in good hands. She takes the time to understand your hair and lifestyle, and offers practical, affordable recommendations to help you achieve the perfect 'lazy girl hair'…
Kaylan is always amazing! Kind, attentive, and shes good at what she does—I don’t have the easiest hair type to work with either:) The salon has great vibes and all the staff are nice (and they make really great drinks!)
Great place and staff! Mary got me checked in efficiently and a drink till I was ready to be seen. Fallon gave me a great cut and I’m so happy with it!
Kelly is the best! Great personality and extremely diligent with her art or cut and style. Highly recommend.
Ruby is such a crazy cool person and I love love love my hair
Kaycee is an incredible stylist! She listened to what I wanted and executed it to a T. Not to mention she is super sweet and awesome to talk to! Would HIGHLY recommend!!
Fallon has been cutting my hair for the better part of my life, and my boyfriend’s hair for as long as he’s known her. It’s hard to find people now a days you absolutely trust with your hair and Fallon is it. Thank you for the countless hair cuts, hair dyes, styling, and nurturing of my hair.
It was great to see Susanna again. I needed a change and she guided me to a great sassy cut and now I’m flying high. It’s awesome to know I am in good hands with Susanna and I look and feel like a champ. Thanks so much!
Brooke was amazing and gave me the perfect summer “lob”!!
