My experience with Steve was outstanding. He truly listened and gave me his honest opinion on what was possible with my hair, how to better take care of my aging hair, and what cut would compliment me. He also showed me how to style it and gave my tips on different techniques I can use. Steve really cares about…
Libby and the team are so awesome! Love the ambiance and how nice everyone is (especially Netty🐶)! I would definitely recommend this salon 10/10 🌟
I got my hair cut and styled by Isaac and I am very pleased with the result! I came in with over processed, fine hair. I had been battling with breakage, dryness, and frizz and was in need of some help! He took the time to listen to my previous hair history and future goals to grow long healthy hair. He took into…
Great experience as always. Thanks Tamara and Javier.
Steve looks at your face, discusses your lifestyle and makes great suggestions to make you look your best. He knows I want to brush through my hair and go. I get compliments daily on my hair and owe it all to his skill and talent. He always does a fabulous job!
Clean and professional salon with a great selection of products. Steve gives the best men’s cut in Atlanta. 10/10
I visited Steve Hightower for the first time after a Google search for cutting fine hair. I am glad I did as my experience exceeded my expectations. Steve was very helpful in his evaluation of my hair and the choice of a haircut that was very complementary to me. He also recommended some products for my hair that i…
I have had many great experiences with Steve Hightower Salon. Everyone is very personable, and they aim to please with excellent results! I highly recommend them! Even when you don't know what you want, they know exactly what hairstyle will flatter your natural look. Javier is amazing!
I have been coming to Steven Hightower Salon since i moved to ATL 2 years ago. Isaac always does a great job cutting and coloring my hair, and we always have a great time catching up. Tamara does a great job with my brows and does a great facial. She has Recommended products that are perfect for my skin and I…
Isaac is AMAZING. He listened to me and did a great job with my hair. So happy to have found him and this salon.
I have been going to Steve Hightower for as long as he has been doing hair! He has done wonders for my hair and it's been amazing to watch him and his salon grow and thrive by adapting to changes and expanding their services, while also holding to the core value of making every client look their best!! Steve - and…
Immediately felt welcome and taken care of. Reception was kind and attentive and Keegan is a doll. Steve made me feel hopeful shot my hair for the first time in a very long time. Thankful to have found this salon.
Steve Hightower gave me a wonderful haircut and color. I will definitely go back. Also, he is very kind and caring. I continued to see Steve since my initial visit and can't say enough good things about his hair talent. He does wonders with my hair. Also, the facials are outstanding.
The staff at Steve Hightower Salon is amazing and always provides impeccable service.
I had a wonderful experience at this salon! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and professional. They were punctual and respectful of my time, and it was clear they genuinely cared about making sure I felt comfortable throughout my visit. Steve listened closely to what I wanted and delivered…
You can just relax; Steve's "magic hands" will do everything else. You will be delighted !
Great experience, so glad I finally went!
Always excellent professional service and attention. Recommend highly!
I've tried to post reviews in the past that would do Steve Hightower Salon including the stylists and employees justice but my words never seemed sufficient until now. I feel heard every time I sit in Isaac's chair. He understands color, personality and flair like no one I've ever met. He transforms my hair beyond…
Best Salon and Staff in Atlanta!!!!
My hair looks great. Color and cut
I had the best experience yesterday at Steve Hightower Salon. Isaac did an amazing job. From the base color, to the highlights, to the hair treatments to the cut and finally a style that I will be able to do at home. I have the perfect summer look now
What an absolute sweetheart, not to even mention master! Love at first sight. He did even better than I was hoping for.
My first time there was with Luna for a hair cut & style. I was very satisfied with my results. I went a couple of weeks ago and had Issac, once again the results were great. I had a wonderful experience and would recommend.
I have been going to Steve Hightower for many years. I have thin straight and difficult hair and Steve has been able to make it look good even when transitioning from one style to another! Would not go anywhere else!
First time haircut and wash with Isaac was great! He listened very carefully to what I wanted and honored my preferences.
Steve did an amazing job cutting the hair of my teen boys with thin, curly hair. He knew just how to cut and style it to make it look fuller and healthier. My boys feel much happier and more confident after their new cuts!
I have been getting my hair cut with Steve for many years, and he is the best. I have been to hairdressers who take forever to cut my hair and yet left it looking unpolished. Steve is sometimes done in 20 minutes with an expert, chic cut. I get compliments all the time on my hair. I had challenges with my hair at…
Everyone was very friendly and I love my haircut.
Luna was so sweet, but I unfortunately did not get the hairstyle I wanted even though I showed a picture 3 times, before and during the process. I also got my hair thinned which I did NOT ask for so it was not a good surprise. Won’t be back but the people were nice.
Very welcoming and professional. Excellent haircut and good information.
I was so nervous, but Steve put me at ease and gave me wonderful advice, solutions, and tips for my thinning hair! I'm thrilled I found him. I certainly will use him going forward !! Keagan is darling and gave me a fabulous shampoo! Robin is a gem and also made me welcome and convinced me of being in the right…
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Steve Hightower Salon and the incredible work of Javier Ruiz. Every visit feels like a luxury experience from the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is beautiful, welcoming, and truly feels like family. Javier is an absolute artist with hair. My color is always perfectly…
Hello everyone, my name is Doris, and to be honest, I don’t particularly like sharing on social media; but I must talk about a special jewel, Steve at Steve Hightower Hair Salon and Day Spa. If anyone is looking for a salon/spa, where you feel safe, secure, beautiful, and appreciated for your individuality, Steve’s…
Twenty years younger!!
Excellent style and service.
Steve is an expert, a master, and a generous teacher. 1) he educated me on all sorts of new data regarding treatments for thinning hair. 2) he masterfully cut my hair so that now - days later, it still falls perfectly into the style that I asked for and that I still love: a rare treat and testament to a…
I am always referring my friends and acquaintances to Steve and his team. They are wonderful.
I have been dismayed when it comes to hair salons. They have forever missed my expectations and left me wondering why I’m paying someone who doesn’t listen to me, my concerns or thoughts, won’t make recommendations based on their expertise or just does “whatever you want”. I almost gave up. I spent the last three…
I came in after stressing about my hair for months. I’ve been dealing with thinning and patches of sparse regrowth, so choosing the right stylist was important to me. I booked my first appointment with Steve for a consultation, cut, and style, specifically because of his expertise with thinning hair. From the start,…
Steve is a great stylist and always does an amazing job. My fiancé has been so impressed, she is doing a consultation with Steve to take over all her salon needs.
Great place to have hair done.
Steve was a delight to work with and a master at his craft. He took the time to listen and explain the best style for my fine hair! I’m so glad I found my way to Hightower Salon and Spa…my only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner!!!
My first visit! Steve was helpful, caring and professional in helping me choose a new hair style. Also, good advise on my thinning hair.
Isaac was truly incredible! It has been a huge task trying to find a hair stylist that I can trust in Atlanta! He took the time to make sure I was comfortable with everything he did and took his time to pay attention to every detail! My hair turned out incredible exactly like I wanted! Isaac now how a client for life
The salon was absolutely amazing!! Right as I entered the door I was greeted and offered water. I didn’t have to wait at all and everyone was very kind and welcoming. I had Luna as my hairdresser and she got me right!!! She was so thoughtful throughout the entire experience and made sure that I loved my new look. I…
Five stars, always! Absolute perfection. Love this place, the team and the products. Great for mature, thinning hair, blondes and extensions. Highly recommend.
Such a fun experience I had with Steve and his associates. I got my hair chopped off and watching Steve in his glory was the highlight of my day. His colorist did a fantastic job taking my plain jane hair color to a color that exploded off my head.
✨ A Truly Magical Salon Experience ✨ From the moment I stepped through the door, I knew this wasn’t just another hair appointment—it was an experience. The space itself radiates an eclectic, spiritual energy that instantly put me at ease. My soul felt safe here, like I had stumbled upon a little sanctuary hidden in…
This was my first time at the salon. What better review of Steve than to say that people I don’t even know have stopped me and told me what a great haircut I have. I loved all the staff & look forward to my next visit.
The entire staff is very welcoming and the salon has a warm and inviting vibe, unlike most corporate or chain salons.
I see Tamara Townsend regularly for lash lifts, brow and lash tinting, and facials. She is wonderful - deeply experienced, careful, and knowledgeable. And she is so kind, calm, and positive - I trust her implicitly and always leave feeling beautiful and relaxed after a session with her. She gives me great advice…
Wonderful experience. Luna was great and understood what I was looking for. I was guided through the process with care and was given wonderful treatment. I have been receiving compliments almost daily on my hair!!
Steve and his staff were so welcoming during my first visit. Tamara waxed my eyebrows and was Super sweet and gave me a tour of the salon. Steve is probably one of the most genuine people I’ve ever met. Did an excellent job on cutting my hair. Will definitely come back and refer to all my friends!
They are very professional and did a great job on my hair. The most relaxed environment. I definitely recommend this salon. Very very pleased :)
This salon is the best! They’re fun, efficient, the vibe in the shop is lighthearted! I’m a little old lady and they always make me feel right at home. They have quality products and always a 10 of 10 on service! Plus, I just love getting my haircut by a legend!
Luna did an amazing job!! She was so nice and did such a great layered cut for me, I would definitely go back to her!
Just left my appointment (cut w/ blow out) with Isaac and he did such a great job!! Already made my next appointment!!
Luna did an amazing job with my haircut! I came in asking for a big change - to chop off at least 10 inches to donate and to give me a lob. Luna took the time to understand some key components of my lifestyle and preferences in order to personalize it. As an active person, we chose to limit the texturing to make…
Luna is literally a MAGICIAN?!!? Like wow, the TALENT! After a series of terrible haircuts, I genuinely was starting to lose hope but Luna fixed up my hair and also gave me amazing tips along the way! She took her time and was very particular which I appreciated a lot. She gave me the best bangs I’ve ever had and…
