k barone salon

I found out about K Barone Salon about a year ago after doing hours and hours of research regarding extensions in Atlanta. Their Instagram account kept popping up and I completely fell in love with every single photo of color and extensions that they posted! I have always wanted extensions but I needed to make sure I was going to the right place. I was nervous bc my hair is extremely blonde and I didn’t want to walk out feeling like some woman you would see on the side of the street at night.
Let me tell you, I chose the BEST salon in town. Kate took her time with me during the extension process and was very helpful. Just an FYI, I probably had the shortest hair Kate had ever out extensions in at the time. I was nervous that they wouldn’t blend properly with my real hair. However, I left feeling like a million bucks. All of my friends were raving and no one could tell that my «new» hair wasn’t my «real» hair!
In terms of color… these ladies (& Mikey) are artists. They know exactly what will good and they are also awesome at explaining their vision to you. If there is something you don’t like after you wash and dry your fresh color SPEAK UP! They are happy to make their clients happy!!! They use the best techniques and products. Like I said, I’m very blonde and thank God to Olaplex & K Barone Salon my hair is strong and healthy!
What I love most about the salon is the diverse team they have working for them! Christy is amazing and super sweet! Jamila is hilarious and gives one of the best blowouts I’ve ever had. Stephanie is so kind. Mikey is Super talented and also gives a dope blow out. Allie’s got mad braid skills! And obviously Kate… she’s really really good and what she does. She’s got the perfect beachy hair vision and knows how to create that look on all of her clients no matter hair color, hair length, or age. All in all, this is a strong team!
I think it’s safe to say if you want beautiful, sexy, beachy, bad ass hair this is the ONLY place to go. You’re not going to regret it.

I would highly recommend K. Barone Salon to anyone! Kate, Jamila, Mikey, Christy, Allie, Kristen, Stephanie are all wonderful at what they do… anything from hair color, hair cuts, extensions, and blowouts!!!

Kate is amazing! I was referred to Kate after several really bad experiences at multiple salons in Buckhead. My hair had been so badly over processed and looked horrible. Not only has Kate dramatically improved the health of my hair while keeping me blonde, but she delivers amazing results every time. I grew up in Atlanta and have tried just about every stylist in Buckhead, and I have to say, she is, hands down, one of the best!

Well I find these negative reviews hilarious number 1. Also number 2 just got a balayage and a cut with Mikey and I’m absolutely obsessed. This place is awesome! Everyone talks to each other and is super nice. I feel like a new person! Found my new hair salon! Def will be back to see Mikey.

I am not sure if I can accurately describe how terrible my experience was here but I will give it a go– I called and booked a highlight and cut and was assigned to Kristin Barrett, a newer stylist here. After coming from an 8 year stint at an established buckhead salon where my stylist moved to NY, I gave it a go after being told this girl had experience.
From the moment I walked in here I was ignored by stylists passing by and after 10 minutes, I was asked who I was there to see. When I was ushered to Ms. Kristin, I was «greeted» with the most unhappy, miserable person I have ever met. It was as if she was too good to even look me in the eyes. The walk, talk, and stuck up attitude was just unreal. My hair, well my hair looks like I went to great clips. My «Bob» is completely uneven, and color was left in spots making my hair look yellow. I could go on forever but I’m hoping my review on this app will steer people as far away as possible from this salon. And from Kristin.

For the first time in 2 years I love my hair. Christy corrected my color, which was done poorly by a another salon. My hair is finally the shade of blonde I’ve always wanted. Christy was professional, thorough, did not rush, and was oh so gentle with my tender scalp. I will definitely be back.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would do it. The customer service here is gag worthy, if you’re into being treated like garbage for a sub par dye job, you’ve found your match. Otherwise, take your business elsewhere. I would opt for super cuts over this place.

Kate is seriously the best and I would recommend her and her salon to anyone!
When I first moved back to GA, I needed my highlights touched up and went to a random place someone recommended to me only to discover they were TERRIBLE and turned my hair bleach blonde — lets make that WHITE. I left in tears with white hair and a scalp that was literally burned. I freaked of course and given it was 3 days before New Years Eve threw some box color on it which turned it an orange green color. My friend was like, I told you to go to Kate in the first place — call her and see if she can help you. I called her in a panic and she got me in immediately. She literally transformed my hair and I have been forever thankful.
Everytime I leave her salon, I feel like a million bucks. She goes out of her way to make sure her clients are getting what they want. It also doesn’t hurt that I get a million compliments all of the time too. She has taken me from green, to the perfect shade of blonde, and now back to a rich brunette.
Her salon is amazing and so are the people who work there too. The location is great and the salon itself is welcoming and has a super cool vibe. It is a great experience from the moment you walk in until the moment you leave.
If you are looking for someone who can make your hair look fabulous – go to K Barone Salon. See Kate or anyone else she has on staff.

Had a great experience at this salon. Great, natural looking color while keeping my hair super healthy. Christy was awesome!

I had a terrible experience at this salon and unless you want to be treated poorly whilst you’re paying top dollar, I advise you should HARD PASS here.
I called in advance and was quoted $ 80 for my base color and $ 65 to touch up my balayage «but oh it could be more just depending on what you want but not that much more».
I had a 6:30PM appointment on a Tuesday. Walked in – and it was bustling which I thought was really awesome for such a small salon. I was literally ignored for 15 minutes as I watched all the stylists and the owner walk around the salon, look at me and continue walking as I stood there.
When I was finally acknowledged, I got a mason jar of wine and sat there for another 15 minutes before it was time to get my hair done.
My stylist was Chrissy. She was working on myself and another girl simultaneously, which was very impressive I thought she was doing a great job being attentive to both of us, and she was a sweet girl. However, not a great colorist at the end of the day.
I asked her to touch up my balayage, possibly lighten it 1 shade and give it an ashy grey/​chestnut tone. When she was «done» I had a copper/​orange dip-​dye line where my balayage used to be. I told her I didn’t like it and she fixed it by using a level 7 toner. I actually didn’t mind that. I thought it looked really good as I walked out – albeit darker than what I wanted.
AND TEHN they rang me up and my total plus tip was over $ 230. Which is actually reasonable for hair and I don’t mind paying but what a GIANT misquote over the phone.
The next morning, I had a head FULL of split ends, and pieces of straw-​textured hair breaking into my hands. WHAT!!! I texted her about it very politely and she said «I didn’t even process your hair that much» «we barely colored it» and «sleep in some conditioner». –_​_​_​_​_​_​–
Needless to say, stay away from this place. Overpriced, poor service and bad stylist. I hear Kate Baron herself is good though. Maybe try her.

Love this salon more than my 6 previous. I thoroughly enjoy the entire team, especially the owner Kate, just as much as the services they provide. My girlfriend dragged me here as a male 2 years ago and here I am thanking her today. Enjoy your visits!
