Wed Feb 17 2010So, I have this crazy curly frizzy hair, and nothing tames it short of really hardcore relaxers. I've tried every possible type of chemical relaxer, and even though those sort of work, they destroy my hair. Susie, the owner of Panache, told me that the salon would soon be getting the new Brazilian Keratin treatment in, and that I'd be a perfect candidate to try it. That's all I needed to hear to be first in the chair when it arrived. Girls, this stuff is AMAZING. My hair has never been softer, straighter and more healthy. The best part is that it lasts for up to four months!! Kelly, my stylist, spent a lot of time with me putting it on, and she did a fantastic job. I only wish I could post before and after pictures. This stuff is the bomb. It's expensive, but the salon is running a special right now and it is SOOOOOOOO worth it. I couldn't be happier with the job Kelly did and that I treated myself to something so great. Thank you, Panache!!

Wed Feb 10 2010I was in Atlanta on business and happened to get an appointment with Erica, who is apparently new. What an asset to an already lovely salon. The ambience was very pleasant, the staff was hugely friendly, and Erica gave me such an amazing cut and color, I will absolutely be coming back next time I'm in Atlanta - check it out, it's more than worth it!

Fri Jan 22 2010Went to Panache Hair Studio Saturday without an appointment with my husband. We both got in with different stylist's within 20min. My husband got the best haircut I have ever seen on him by their newest stylist. What talant. Her name was Erica and she has been there 6 months. My haircut and color made such a difference. Both Susie and Allie worked on me. It was nice to be in a salon where the stylist's worked toghther and loved their work. Susie and Allie consulted with each other to get the best look for me. I really felt special both while I was there and also when I left because of the compliments that I received. Thankyou Panache Stylist's. We will be back

Tue Jan 19 2010After reading the review "I look ten years younger" I decided to try Susie at Panache. I am so glad I did as she really did take several years off my appearance. I am so pleased with Susie's talents with limp, lifeless and drab middle aged hair. In about an 1 1/2 hours she had done a color that blended the gray that was easy to maintain, and gave me a very nice upbeat haircut that really added fullness. I am so happy with my new look ! Susie and the other stylists all helped me with little tips so that I could manage everything on my own. It is so nice to find such a understated place where everyone does care how you look. It is rare to find a place where all of the stylists help you to do your new look at home.

Sat Jan 16 2010Finally I have found a stylist who is on the same page as me. I know that I can book my appointment with Susie and she will always give me a great haircut and color with lots of style. Since Susie has been doing my color,it is common to receive compliments on the shine and flattering color results by people I do not even know. I feel like I have been to so many salons in the past and have always walked out feeling cheated, like I did not get what I really wanted. I know that when I go to Panache Hair Studio I will leave with a great feeling and very nice results!

Tue Jan 05 2010Kelley asked me if I wanted a shampoo. Inside I did, but I was pressed for time that day and told her no. She cut my hair better than I could have asked. She knew exactly how to do it and my hair looked so good, that Kelley at Panache is the only place I will ever get my hair done. She also expertly trimed my moustache and it too looked great! Next time I will get the shampoo because I love having my head rubbed when it is shampooed! Thanks again to Kelley and everyone else at Panache Hair Studio! Ya'll are the BEST!!!

Mon Jan 04 2010I've been getting my hair done at Panache for years and have had a great experience every time with everything from color and highlights to regular haircuts. On my past visit, I asked for something very difficult and again, I am impressed with the results. I am growing my hair out to donate for Locks of Love, but still wanted it to look stylish in the mean time. My stylist was able to give me great volume and style while maintaining as much length as possible. The salon is warm and friendly and the stylists impress me with each visit.

Mon Jan 04 2010I came into Panache today and wanted an all over color, partial highlights, and a cut. I explained to my stylist that I wanted long layers, the shortest layer being below the chin. Things started off rough as the stylist proceeded to drip color onto my face as she was working. Some of the color actually got into my eyelashes and eyebrow. This later stained my skin and I had a difficult time trying to remove the stains from my face. I still gave this woman the benefit of the doubt that she could at least provide some eye-catching highlights. I was wrong. They blended right into the rest of my hair. Following the bad color job was my cut. I specifically asked for no more than 2 inches off. My hair was mid back length prior to the cut. After the cut it was at my shoulders and my longest layer, which was supposed to be below chin length, came to the bottom of my eyes. I have curly hair, so the short length of the cut looked ridiculous and very poofy. After asking the stylist if she only to... Read more

Tue Dec 08 2009For a few years, I bounced around trying a number of salons. I tried nearly everything from the “top salons” (read over priced and hectic) to a hair styling school (good prices but patience is required). About a year ago, I found Tammi at Panache on Atlanta City Search. I am thrilled with the hair styles and service I get each visit. Tammi’s professionalism and the pleasant atmosphere in this low -key but high-style and high-service salon make it special.

Mon Nov 30 2009I moved to Atlanta from Nashville. Being new I opted to go get my hair highlighted by a friend of a friend.. BAD IDEA, the woman gave me a "playboy bunny blonde on crack". I was mortified. Living close to Panache, I decided to give it a try. THEY SAVED MY HAIR....I walked in wearing a hoodie and walked out looking "SPIFTASTIC".

Sat Nov 28 2009Have been going to Panache for approximately twelve years. I am always greeted with uplifting "HELLOS" from the staff. I know I have come to the right place to elevate me emotionally. I get my color,highlights, and cut and leave feeling special. Easy parking, convenient hours ...... MBY

Tue Nov 24 2009I moved from Los Angeles to Atlanta a few months ago and I have twice gotten a haircut at Panache, both times with Allie. My hair is tricky because if it is cut too short it will spike up, so I am always nervous when I go to a new place. Well, both times Allie did exactly what I asked her to do and not only that, but it was clear she understood exactly what would happen if she cut it too short, so she was pretty careful asking me about the length. For as long as I live in Atlanta, Panache has a customer in me.

Sun Nov 22 2009I'd been going to Kelly for a while, and then I lost all my hair due to chemo. When it grew back, it was nearly all curly rather than simply wavy. Kelly helped me adapt to my new do no problem, and I won't go to anyone else.

Mon Nov 16 2009Panache is an incredible place to find the best you. The hairdressers are personable, knowledgeable and current with hair trends. As a customer, I have never been disappointed. Susie and her staff provide a personal experience that includes a real interest in who you are and what you want. Great job!

Sat Nov 14 2009Been seeing Kelley for over ten years - and in fact she did hair for my wedding 7 years ago - she is most talented, very caring and attentive - as are all of the stylists at Panache. Take a moment and walk in and buy some hair products or get your hair done - you won't regret it!

Wed Oct 07 2009WI've been getting my hair done at Panache since 1987, when I moved to Atlanta. Since 1990, I've gotten my "cut and color" with Kelly every month. She combines several colors to create my special color, which has changed through the years. When she cuts my hair, it stays good for the full 4 weeks, even though my hair is fairly short. Gotta love that!hat made it unique or special?

Wed Sep 30 2009I just visited Panache for the first time, and Erica was my stylist. She went above and beyond what I have experienced in the U.S. from other salons. It was as if she had come straight over from Japan (where I've had my most favorite experiences in a salon). She listened to what I wanted for my style and color, and did exactly that. But here is where she went beyond my expectations...she gave me the most amazing scalp massage of my life! Incredible!!! And while I was in the chair, I really felt beautiful! Not just from what she did with my hair, which was amazing, but she listened to me with genuine concern, and pointed out some wonderful things inside myself. Thank you, Erica!

Wed Sep 23 2009My wife and I moved to the area a couple of years ago and I was looking for a sylist in the Morningside or Virginia Highlands area and found Panache Hair Studio. Let me just say, I'm very particular for a guy on how I like my hair to look and Panache got it right the first time. I'll definitely be going back to Panache as long as I live in the Morningside area. Highly recommended.

Thu Sep 10 2009Tammi knows her stuff when it comes to color and cuts. I have been going to her for 2 years now and love every time I go. I am asian and have dark hair so in the summer months I have light high lights and in the winter monts I go with low lights. My color is always great and never weird. I moved here from out of state and is always hard to know who to go to, so glad to have her in my life. Thanks Tammi for always doing a great job!

Tue Sep 08 2009I have always been a guy that would try to find the cheapest hair cut in town. For years I would go to Great Clips or Super Cuts. Sometimes I would even cut my own hair to try and save a dollar. This is until recently when my roommate referred me to Panache. I was skeptical at first because he told me that they charged 25 dollars for a cut. This is about 10 dollars more than I have ever paid in my life. Last Saturday my roommate convinced me to go up there with him to get my hair cut. Long story short, I am now a firm believer in "you get what you pay for." I had a stylist named Allie and it was the best hair cut I have ever received in my life. I have some crazy things going on with my hair and she was able to cut it so that it was almost identical to the picture that I showed her from one of their magazines. It looks like Great Clips and Super Cuts lost a customer over the weekend.

Mon Sep 07 2009I have been getting my hair cut for the past year at Panache. I am normally a last minute customer, so I just walk in when I am in the area. They usually always have someone available to cut my hair without long waits. I think I have seen everyone there and everyone has done a fantastic job on my hair. I have never done color to my hair until a month ago and now I am obsessed because of all of the compliments that I get at work. I will diffently be sending all my friends.

Sun Sep 06 2009This hair salon appealed to me because it was small with just six stylists and very friendly. It reminds me of the pleasant feel of a community salon. I always get a great haircut at Panache and the prices are a bargain for the Virgina Highland Emory area. I have seen alot of people getting color there. It is amazing to see how nice some of these people look upon leaving Panache. When they arrived they did not stand out but when they left they looked great!! If you want to go to a low profile nice place then Panache might be your salon. I love my stylist there

Sun Sep 06 2009I find this salon to be just right. I have been going to Panache hair Studio for over a year now and it is just what I like about a salon. I have the same stylist for my haircut and that same stylist does my color as well. I always felt that this is the way it should be and Panache feels this way also. My stylist can color my hair to make the most of my haircut. She knows exactly what the outcome should be as she is doing both. I have noticed all of the stylists there and they do very nice work. Several Emory prof. and CDC scientists go there so the conversations can be very interesting. If you are looking for a new hair Salon Panache Hair Studio might fit the bill.

Thu Sep 03 2009So disappointed in Panache. Went there for 3+ years. I called to schedule my next haircut and was told that my stylest Amber "retired" to spend more time with her baby boy. This didn't make sense to me, so I made a few calls and found that Amber had moved to another salon only a mile away in Virginia Highlands. I get that it's a business, I get that you don't want to lose customers. Maybe if they'd told me what happened and offered me a discount to see a new stylist I would have CONSIDERED it (not really, I love Amber) but I can't respect or recommend a business that misrepresents the facts like that and shows such a complete lack of integrity.

Sat Aug 29 2009Panache is a great place for an Emory student to get a haircut because they will do a terrific job. I have often gone without an appointment. They have always given me an excellent haircut and the price of 28 dollars for the works is a bargain. Other hair salons in the area are much more and the work is not as good. My girlfriend goes to Panache as well. She gets color and Highlights and everyone is always asking her where she gets her hair done. If you looking for a new Hair Salon to go to, try Panache Hair Studio! You will not be disappointed.

Sat Aug 01 2009As a student at Emory, I needed to find a new salon to get my hair cut. My mother actually owns a salon back in my hometown, so I usually waited until I traveled back home to get a free haircut. Halfway through college, I finally decided to try out Panache (wasn't traveling home as often.) Let me tell you that Panache is so good that I rarely get a haircut back at my mom's own salon! As a male, I'm not too picky about my hair, but it's very easy to mess up given the type of hairdo I usually have. Amber gets it right every time and I always have a great time talking to her while she cuts my hair. The atmosphere is great and the staff is extremely friendly. For any incoming Emory students looking for a great haircut, don't be lured in by "Best Cuts" in Emory Village. Make an appointment at Panache (especially Amber)!

Wed Jul 29 2009Allie did a great job on my haircut. Most hairdressers get it too short the first time but she did an outstanding job. The shop was nice and everyone seemed to be having an enjoyable experience. I've already made my next appointment with Allie.
by lindsay3161310_2e
Thu Mar 05 2009I had a haircut and red highlights by Allie, and it was the best hair cut/style that I have EVER had. I cant tell you how many compliments I have gotten--at work, family, boyfriend and perfect strangers! I will definitely be back to see Allie. I have had my hair cut at Panache several times, and they always do a nice job, but Allie was phenomenal!

Sun Mar 01 2009After reading the review looking Ten years younger after a hair makeover at Panache, I decided to make an appointment and see If Panache could do the same for me. My appointment with Susie began on time and she really did a nice job cutting my hair. A great haircut really does seem to take years off of your face. Maybe they can do the same for my body. All kidding aside, I would recommend Panache as a good choice. Susie was happy, and very upbeat. She made me laugh and the highlights she did were very helpful in making my hair appear fuller and reflect light better. I will defiantly go back to this Salon. It was cute, friendly and a good value. Susie was Skilled and fun to be around. Thankyou.

Tue Feb 24 2009Hello Atlanta, I recently visited Panache and had a very good experience. Amber was my stylist. She was very friendly and knowledgeable. We had extensive discussions about the style and look I was going for. She put it to me straight and even had the guts to tell me that a particular aspect that I liked about my hair was no good for me because of my round face. I'm sure that wasn?t easy to say. The point is you will get an honest assessment and answer. She followed that up with an excellent haircut. After she finished cutting my hair, she took time to point out what she had done and what to expect to achieve the look I was going for as I need to grow my hair out in certain areas. The prices were reasonable. There were available slots. All in all a good experience for me. I rated it 4 stars. I reserve my 5th star for instances where people go above and beyond the call of duty, like a foot massage or giving me some free product or something. :-). I just don't give a 5 star ... Read more

Sun Feb 22 2009My daughter suggested we go to Panache Hair Studio near her University to get a hair makeover. I certainly needed it. My dull brown hair was overgrown and made me feel middle aged frumpy. Susie cut my hair into a layered bob with lots of what she called shattered edges. It looks great! She took my drab color and created a much more attractive look with highlights and lolites. She combined a carmel color and date color. The result was very nice. I have been so happy with this new look. It has really pulled me together, and I feel years younger. I am always having people ask, Who did your hair? I will add that she also did a great job on my daughter, but she is young and cute so that was much easier. I will make a special trip to go back to Panache and have her do my hair. Thankyou!!!

Tue Dec 09 2008I came here after leaving a high priced salon in downtown Decatur. Very happy with hair, but I am not happy about the signs regarding tipping on a credit card. This may turn into a deal-breaker for me. I should not be required to tip in cash......... Does that mean no tip if I have no cash and yes I am aware of an ATM next door.............

Wed Oct 22 2008I moved to Atlanta form Michigan and was looking for a salon. I read the reviews posted here and decided to give Panache a try. I was not disapointed. The salon was cute, affordably priced and my stylist Amber was fantastic! I have been coloring my hair blonde for years, but Amber took me from squash yellow to a beautiful champagne blonde and added low lights for contrast and to make it look more natural. I have never looked so good. She really knows color and took the time to explain to me why I needed to change the color (because of my skin tone) . I was really nervous, but it looks great. Between the new color and updated cut I feel like a new woman! If you are looking for a new stylist, I highly recommend Amber at Panache. I have been back 3 times now and every time is as good as the first.

Mon Sep 22 2008The first time I went to Panache was because of the great ratings I read here on citysearch! I had an appt with Song. I had previously gone to Greatclips every time I needed a haircut- but finally got tired of getting crappy uneven trims. Song sat me down, and gave me the opportunity to tell her exactly what I wanted. I'd never had a fancy hairstyle before- not even layers. I told Song I wanted tapered sideswept bangs, and lots of layers. Let me tell you, Song did her magic, and my hair looked like a million bucks! With a 20% tip, the wash, cut, and straighten cost me $sixty-nine. I'd never payed so much for a hair cut, but it was absolutely worth it. I got SO many compliments, everyone said I should always have layers from then on. I went back for the second time last weekend. I saw Song again, and once again she didn't let me down. She even recommended a great product for my hair- my scalp tends to get a little dry, and the Aveda spray she gave me works wonders. It's been a week and... Read more

Thu Sep 18 2008The great reviews got me to make a appointment at Panache. The owner Susie really helped me out. I have thinning hair due to a thyroid disorder and she gave me all sorts of tips to help my hair. She even knew about supplements! The highlite and haircut were so perfect for my hair and face. I felt so attractive leaving the salon.I have received tons of compliments and would recomend them to anyone who wants a nice unpretenous place to have their done.

Mon Sep 15 2008The first time I went I did not have a great experience, but when I was there I say a stylist doing someone elses color and I liked what she did, so I requested her when I called to come in the next time. Great experience. Random pricing though. The first time I got a highlight/lowlight and it was $95. The second time I just got a highlight and it was $110, but worth it. Just make sure you ask about pricing.

Wed Aug 13 2008Okay, So I'm not quite the guy that goes nuts for a haircut. It wasn't until I turned 30 that it even occured to me that getting it done by a professional could be a good idea. Panache is the kind of place that guys like me love. Despite it's semi-pretentious name, the folks working there are laidback, thoughtful and funny. I'm always in and out in half an hour, looking way better than when I came in. My stylist is always friendly, always in a good mood, able to talk about almost anything on my mind - and really, what more does a guy want? I should mention that besides myself, my wife and daughter go here, and they love it too. I should also mention that once when I needed an "emergency" haircut (I was traveling to multiple important meetings the next week) my styist met me BEFORE the store opened on a Saturday morning. You can't BUY that level of service. So, some free advice. If you're a younger guy - get smart. A real haircut does make a difference, and if you think people don'... Read more

Tue Aug 12 2008My hair looks the best that it has in years thanks to a great haircut and color a Panache. I am a Emory professor and had not done much with my hair for years. I went to Panache upon urging from my friends who go there. I am so thankful that I took their advice. What a difference a nice haircut and style make. The group of stylists there were so helpful. They gave me several tips on how to style my hair quickly so that the maintance is very small. It is surprising how much younger I look with color and and a current haircut. Thanks again . I will be back

Wed Aug 06 2008I have mixed feelings about writing this review. I've never written a negative review for a hair salon before, but...On the one hand, the owner of the salon, Susie, did not charge me for what was the worst haircut of my life. On the other hand, I left the salon with the worst haircut of my life. I went to Song initially based on all the reviews here. I have very thin hair, so I asked her for something that would make my hair look fuller but I didn't want an ordinary bob. Though I didn't bring a photo, I thought I explained to her generally what I wanted. When she was finished, she gave me a very short bob that appeared misshapen. When I complained that the bangs were not what I wanted, she chopped them off quickly (they are now shooting out of my forehead) and seemed generally unapologetic. I asked to have another stylist "fix" this nightmare and they gave me Susie, who was very nice but couldn't seem to make it work. She did show me the wonders of barrettes (um, thanks). Basically, I ... Read more

Fri Jul 25 2008This salon really impressed me. All of the stylists Seemed to love working at Panache and seemed to love their work. This is the way it appeared to me at least. Susie took me right away and did a terrific highlite and haircut. My hair never looked as full before or as shinny. I can part it anywhere and the highlites always look great. Susie took my very poor quality hair and made it look like something that I could be proud of. I would highly recommend her and am definitely going back to her. If you want a new place to get your hair done try Panache. They did a great job on my husband as well!!!

Fri Mar 07 2008I was quite concerned when my former stylist closed her shop. My daughter shops at Kroger and I noticed Panache in November. I walked in and was given an appt. with Song that afternoon. My hair is very thick and wavy and many people have struggled with it. She did highlights and a cut and I really liked it. I was back in a month later and Song did it "her way" and I was amazed. I've just made another appt. with her this week, and even though I live in North Carolina, Song is my stylist from now on. Thanks!
