SHAY MCCORD

by Teresa Hasala at Citysearch

Shay has been doing my hair for over 8 years. I followed her from Soge to Adore. Every 4 weeks I go into Adore and am welcome by a great staff with nothing but smiles. She has done some fantastic color from burgundy highlights, some bright red peak-a-boo color underneath my dark brown hair and mostly just matching my color in general. NOBODY knows how grey I am because in the past, nobody knew I colored my hair. I always feel amazingly happy when I leave my chair. Not only because I love the way my hair looks, but also because Shay is a joy to be around and probably knows more about me than my mother. You can't go wrong with Shay McCord.

• Pros: Best Hair/Therapist Stylist in the ATL
• Cons: NONE

Patrick for Cut, Color, & Convo!

by josie9683 at Citysearch

Monogamy has never been a strong suit of mine in the hair stylist department. Every few months, I feel an overwhelming polygamist urge to mix things up & try a new salon all together. One unfaithful day, I decided to stray on over to Patrick Cochran at Adore & I couldn't be happier that I found him!

Patrick is not only a warm fuzzy, who you feel you've known for years after just introducing yourself, but he listens to your ideas while also having an objective eye. Sometimes, what a client wants in theory is simply unrealistic for real life. Patrick knows this & takes every person's hair texture, face shape, lifestyle, etc into account when deciding on the best cut & color for the individual. I can honestly say that I have received more compliments on my color & the overall health of my hair since I've been going to Patrick.

Speaking of, that's the other awesome thing about Adore: they carry some of the best hair care products on the market today. If you're feeling earthier, they've got Pureology. If you're a product junkie & love the sweeter scents, they've got Bumble & Bumble. They even carry the highly coveted & cult favorite Moroccan Oil.

The prices are fairly competitive & comparable to those of other high end salons, but hey, they include a complimentary beverage too! Who doesn't like to chat it up & get their hair did all while sipping on a glass of vino?!?! Adore ain't cheap, but the results are worth every penny. Every stylist looks incredibly talented, but Patrick is so personable that I can't imagine spending time in anyone Else's chair. Go see him. Now.

• Pros: Stylist feedback, flex schedules, products, location, etc
• Cons: Kinda pricey, but seems to be the norm these days...

Love that Jenn Hipp

by WhitneyT at Citysearch

Jen Hipp cut off my 10 inches for Hair Donation and gave me the cutest haircut ever! I am getting swamped with compliments on how good it looks. Also she is the best colorist I have ever seen. She makes you look natural! And she uses gloss to make your hair shiny.

I love Adore Studio and JEN Hipp!

• Pros: Best Haircut and Color
• Cons: NONE ..maybe lack of parking...
