Such a wonderful experience. I am visiting GA from Florida and needed my hair done for an event. I loved everything about it.. the environment, the well maintained shop, her personality and skills.I asked her for what I wanted—she catered and delivered. I also took my daughter for a wash and silk press the next day. Everything went well. I will recommend her and return—anytime I’m in GA! Thank you for a wonderful experience. Such a great soul!Services: Haircut

I went for the “Curly Perm” and a deep plum semi-perm color but after being there a whole 6 hours. I didn’t even have a bend in my hair. To top that, she literally “cut” my hair saying she was trimming the ends that didn’t process. Again, The little old lady across from me kept tell me to look, she said, she’s cutting your hair but I didn’t believe her. Trimming and Chopping someone’s hair off are 2 different things. Also, I asked for a deep plum color (dark 99J purple) and the color that was in my hair was an Auburn color. All my length of my hair is gone and I have no curls no waves NOTHING. She tells me to “go get some braids” Until my hair is completely natural. WOW!!!! $100 deposit $35 for semi-color. I walk outside and as soon as my hair starts to dry I look like a puff ball. So, disgusted!!!!!

So I wasn't going to leave a review but what happened today on Sunday morning (March 6) really put me in such a bad mood only because my birthday was on the following day, Monday (march 7) I work from 8-5pm and just wanted to do something nice for myself.I called the owner asking if she could only flat iron my hair because my hair was washed and straightened. (I had used my flat iron at home, just wanted more definition) The first thing that she said was " I don't work on dirty hair" I explained that I had washed and blow dried my hair the night before, on Saturday. She told me to come in so she could take a look at my hair/length. I want to also mention that my hair is short. It's a little over my neck. So anyway, I came in. She passed her fingers through my hair and quoted me for $70 ? I'm like How? When I did half the job already. Like I might as well let you re-wash my whole hair again?? But no.. This lady wanted $70 to flat iron my hair which was already straightend and told me that she would need to cut my ends as well otherwise she would have to decline the service. She was just extremely rude and unreasonable. Obviously my impression was that I offended her because I had already came in with my hair straightend. I read the other positive reviews and was convinced to come in plus I only live 4 minutes away and this salon would have been extremely convenient.. but based on this experience alone she lost a potential loyal costumer.P.s Thanks for ruining my Birthday.

If I could give this salon 10 stars I would! I have been seeing Mrs. V for several years now and she is the ONLY PERSON I trust to do my hair. She is professional, clean, honest, and treats you like family from the moment you walk into her salon. Since the pandemic, she has made it a priority to keep everyone safe so she requires masks, performs temperature checks upon arrival , provides hand sanitizer, and spaces everyone throughout the salon to ensure safety which I truly appreciate. It feels like a family reunion every time I enter into her salon because even though there's people there I never met before, Mrs. V makes everyone feel welcome. I have strong, healthy relaxed hair all because of Mrs. V's gentle care with my hair. She's hands down one of the best stylist around so if you are questioning on whether to check her out or not, BOOK THE APPOINTMENT AND GO! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! Thank you so much Mrs. V for all you are continuing to do; not just with my hair care but also in my life! You are an amazing person and pray God continues to Bless you, your family., and your business!Service: Hair styling

I’m from Colorado and had made an appointment with another salon during my visit. The stylist did not show and didn’t answer my texts or calls for the next 30+ minutes. I searched for another stylist and saw Dawns’ ad. She worked me in within the next 90 minutes. She was excellent, timely, professional, and very friendly. I recommend her. Loved my style cut! - thanks Dawn,Janice

I do not recommend this manipulative trifling stylist. The negative reviews are real and Vann Bamm or whatever her name is needs to just retire. She's a trifling drama queen liar and in person is very ghetto and extremely unprofessional. The kind, inviting, friendly person I spoke to a few times prior was not the stylist that I met. The nasty attitude and unprofessional especially to new clients attitudes in person like we are desperate is no bueno for good business. Shes a liar with very poor customer service, listening skills, and cleanliness.This staff confuses business and professionalism with being buddy buddy. Useless rushed consultation, no client privacy whatsoever speaking loud and childish as if all client convo should be "shop" convo showing very little respect to your new clients. My experience was terrible because I left dissatisfied with the horrible cut from her poor listening skills. She cut my hair way too short looking similar to all her other waiting clients which is NOT WHAT I ASKED FOR. Its an uneven terrible haircut that was so unnecessary when I clearly told her what I wanted. She gave me ghetto bully-like attitude because I asked her to use another type of product on my head that I preferred that she did say she had in the back...like I am not licensed and dont know whats good for my hair.. yeah that backfired on her lol She has a ego problem and lacks good communication and customer service skills like we in the hood or something with her contentious tone and attitude. She made comments all loud as if she was more-so speaking to her cliquish-like salon buddies about my hair being dry when I told this goofball over the phone and in person that I washed my hair with a clarifying shampoo 2 days earlier from swimming in ocean and pool water? Instead of being professional this goofy looking fraud would rather put on a show in front of the salon and down talk new clients like a salon clown; she should've up sold me with some type of moisturizing treatment. Instead she'd rather be a poor salon professional. I came to get relaxed and serviced not anxiety and embarrassment. She asked me to be there at 530 sharp just to begin my lousy haircut at 645 and attempt to start my chemical service after 7pm with the nerve to wonder why Im not bubbly talking? Like I wanna wait in a packed overbooked salon with a half a** started hairdoo to keep me there? The same as she did with all her other overbooked clients probably all feeling the same way lol She kept touching all the clients interchangeably at the same time, no sanitizer, kept touching my phone. Come to think of it there was no barbicide in sight either. This narcissist is a joke and I should NOT have wasted my time talking to her before the appointment believing that she is a professional. I definitely shouldn't have been so optimistic initially by giving her the benefit of the doubt especially after reading some of the shady reviews before I came. I should have read all of them before I came and there would have been no appointment booked; silly me. From the moment she came to the locked door she was uninviting as if I were bothering her like she wasn't expecting me? She's delusional and has forgotten the fundamentals of being a professional hairstylist and I should've just kept it moving early on and not wasted my time in this trifling salon with the trifling attitudes. Her and her useless sidekick should just pack it up because they're both washed. So many older women over-booked in a small space during COVID with half done hairdos looking ridiculous. Sooo why would you reach out just to triple+ book your clients like that with the audacity to require a deposit for an appointment ? For what that ghettoness? So unnecessary, unprofessional, and a huge disappointment. I knew when I arrived...saw the shopping center in person...the locked door...it was questionable lol There's no need to give all the details about my horrible experience because its over thank GOD and will be the last. I do not recommend

Dawns of Essence is the best salon in Gwinnett county. Mrs V is an excellent stylist. She has that special touch with hair that is hard to find with most professional hair stylist. She is awesome with short hair styles and cuts.

Great service & great company from Ms. V! I got a relaxer on my hair that had tons of new growth and it came out amazing! She also follows excellent Covid-19 protocols to keep her salon safe & clean for customers! So happy!
