Melrose and McQueen Salon

Love this place. Got a great cut from Jo! She’s new, but she’s badass and everyone should check her out. I got a fantastic long-​bob which came out exactly like I wanted! Also, she’s just chill to hang out with and does GREAT highlights too! Go see her!

Awesome Salon with awesome people. If you are looking for an great stylist you listens to what you want but also incorporates what you need go to Jo! She is super knowledgeable and knows what she is doing. Not to mention she’s a great person on top of that. Also, best hair massage of your entire life.

First timer, just stepped out of my appointment with carla and DAMN! I am feelin FRESH to DEFF! She gave me such an amazing haircut and it’s exactly a mix of the pictures I brought in. I feel like this place is a great place to go if you want to explore a more alt approach, though they do do some really traditionally beautiful doos too! Everyone who walked out of here looked incredible and each do had a unique style. I couldn’t wait to get my cut! Carla really took the time and care to achieve the specific style. I left with a new confidence. Thanks for this retro look carla, you RULE!

I love coming here because of the relaxed vibe, yet very professional, competent and creative staff. Kristo is my stylist (and owner) and he really worked wonders in me the past few months trying to undo a color job that was too creative from a past stylist. Now I’m at the point where we work together and come up with looks I love. If you want something creative, they do a great job. I also see people with more classics looks come out of there looking great. I also know personally they keep up with education on the regular and use amazing Keune color which is a great international brand out of holland. It Melrose & McQueen for me!

What a great salon! The staff is very friendly & inviting and literally right off the Beltline in Inman Park. I can’t say enough wonderful things about my stylist Kenneth. He is so patient and pays careful attention to every detail. Looked and felt like a million bucks after he was done but thankfully, didn’t cost nearly as much. I highly recommend this place as your new salon!

I travel almost every week for work, and I have had haircuts all over the country from Ft. Worth, TX, to Sacramento, Ca, Boston, New York City and beyond.
I have never been as satisfied with my cut as I am with the cut that Kyle gave me at Melrose and McQueen.
The salon is super hip, and is in a gentrified general store building right off The Beltway.
My hair looks exactly how I dreamed it would when I described it. Kyle spent over an hour cutting and styling my hair. He is really interesting and easy to talk to, and the products at this salon smell amazing!
I highly recommend Kyle and this salon to anyone with hip/​edgy sensibilities looking for a skilled stylist and an overall kick ass experience. I wish that I lived in Atlanta so that I could go to this salon regularly.
You will be glad you came here.

I recently had to switch hairdressers and decided to give Melrose and McQueen a whirl on a whim. Today I had my appointment with Josh. He gave me a GREAT haircut. He’s definitely going to be my new go-​to guy. He’s also really nice and easy to talk to — I’m not much of a talker until I know someone, especially when getting my hair done, and he had just the right amount of chatter. He’s also a funny funny dude.
I’d definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a new hairdresser.
Also, the space is really rad. I love the feel of it and that the (super nice!) desk girls also offer you a nice array of beverages when you arrive.
Overall, a REALLY fantastic experience.
TIP: Parking is ROUGH. I was already running late due to traffic for my 1PM weekday appointment and it took me a good 15 mins to find parking, so make sure you give yourself extra time.

big shout out goes to Amber for hooking me up with a fresh cut and beard trim. hands down best salon experience i’ve ever had! if you’re ever in the area and need some grooming tlc, stop in and she will take care of you!

Melrose and McQueen is awesome, to the point where I look forward to my haircuts. Josh has cut my hair for over 3 years now, and it’s great to have someone I can count on. The other stylists are fantastic as well. From the top down, they are good people who care about their clientele and their craft.

Seems like a cool salon but they have cancelled my appt twice now at the last minute which doesn’t work for me. Got my haircut once awhile back and it was decent but I won’t go back. One cancellation, fine, but two? At least offer something more than a half hearted apology to show you’re serious about your clientele.

I had a great first haircut here with Tatum. I needed assistance after some serious butchering, and she was the lady for the job. And at the last minute to boot! Since my hair is in a pixie cut, I require regular maintenance. I made my appt for the next time when I left after the first haircut. Flash forward. They cancelled my appt with less than 24 hours notice. ZERO APOLOGY. Just «the salon is closed tomorrow.» When I asked to reschedule after work or on a weekend, they gave me a date more than 2 weeks out.
I’m really not high maintenance about my haircuts, but I expect some apology and accommodation with rescheduling when canceling an appt. I will not go back.

I always say Amber is my hair witch and I mean it literally she is magic and I wouldn’t trade her for the world!
She took such good care of me for my first cut with her back almost two years ago. I wanted something queerer and edgier than my long red curls (that were super dead yall) but I didn’t know what that looked like or how to part ways with all that dead mess. She took me there gradually and every step of the way has been a new and exciting journey. After I got my first cut I couldn’t recommend her more for curly hair. She cuts with my curl pattern and that’s a lot more intention than other stylists I’ve experienced other places! She mixed me up a color shampoo that would add more orange and yellow than my red at the time. That inspired my bright orange hair now, which she mixes herself keeping the pink and brassy tones very very far away. She also gave me the perfect cut for me, undercut with a short 60’s Chelsea-​gay style that works with my curls. I can’t even imagine myself with other hair.
I’d recommend Amber for curls, bright colors, queer folks. She can create what you want but I suggest you go to her and let her do what she thinks is best, you’ll love the results!

The vibe, quality, and people make Melrose & McQueen the amazing place that it is! I love coming here. How much Kristo cares about his people and their clients is amazing. Anyone you see will be amazing. I see Kristo and some of my friends see Kyle! Josh and Jodi rock too. They all are great!

I’ve been going to Laura on a monthly basis since my initial review – I’ve even got my girlfriend, my sister, her roommate, and my roommate going to see her at M&McQ!

I have been going to Carla now for over a year. She does an incredible job every single time. The thing I really like about her work is that she gets so into making it the best cut and style every time. I have had stylists in the past that cut corners after you’ve been with them a few times, but Carla gets focused. I can’t recommend her enough, seriously. Guys, I think the clientele is split roughly down the middle for girls and guys, so you will not feel uncomfortable. M&M is the perfect place for a guy’s style. (I can only vouch for Carla.)

Tatum did an amazing cut and color on me. I loved getting my hair done by her and will go back to her from now on. She is a great person to spend that time with and very easy to talk to. The best thing is that she is VERY precise and gets down into the minute details of your haircut. I really appreciate that and it made me really trust her. She clearly knows what she is doing and is a talented professional. I was also pleased that she was able to do the entire service herself. Getting passed around to colorists, a shampoo person, etc, can be sort of stressful. She did the entire service so that was nice. She also recommended some great products for me and so far I really liked the one I picked up.

Finally found my go-​to hair salon in Atlanta! Josh cut my hair and did an amazing job. I like that he prefers to cut hair dry, so he can see how the style will really look. Afterwards, another employee washed my hair and Josh blow-​dried it. He also tried out some EVO products in my hair, which truly gave it the «new hair» feel. However, he wasn’t «overselling» products, which I like. I don’t know about you, but I hate going to hair salons where I feel pressured to buy products. Anyway, Josh spent an hour and a half on my hair, for such a great price! I will definitely return.
ALSO, definitely check out their referral program. If you provide the name of a friend has been there, or refer a friend, both of you get $ 15 off of your service.

I found myself strolling along one Saturday afternoon and the next thing I know, I’m getting a free haircut on the sidewalk by a bearded man sporting a sweet Amish hat. This bizarre turn of events turned into one of the best haircuts I’ve gotten in this city. Aside from the wild story and great cut, it also resulted in me coming back a week later for a charitable beard-​framing party complete with free PBR and a motorcycle photo shoot. I’m still not sure if this is real life, but if it is, they’ve definitely gained a loyal customer. The staff Is super friendly and talented (based on one cut). Bonus: the shop itself has some awesome décor. I’d recommend for anyone looking for a decent cut and possibly an incredible story to tell your friends.

I’m actually kind of upset with my experience here. The staff is super nice but I’m irritated with how my hair came out. I wanted a dip dye effect of vibrant purple. The stylist assured me this was possible. After bleaching my hair it was only a light brown as opposed to blonde and the stylist said it was as light as it needed to be. When he put on the purple it barely showed up. It’s very subtle which is not what I wanted. I understand that I have dark hair but he promised me the purple would be vibrant. You can barely see it. My hair looks almost the same as it did before I came in, only I’m out $ 200. Annoyed!

So my wife and I came here to get haircuts from some great hair dressers that I greatly admire. Laura took care of mine and Joshua took care of my wife. She came out with an awesome dapper hair do and I LOVE my super cute cut. My wife and I are picky clients and I’m happy to say I had no worries the whole time. Thanks guys!!! Only the best!!!
