Reviews

Davis did an amazing job in my hair for my daughter’s wedding. She listened to what I wanted and made sure that I left happy with the beautful blow out style. I received a lot of compliments. I would highly recommend her.

So happy to find Amber! She practices with the utmost care and delicacy to not overdo it or create an unnatural look. She provides her genuine and honest opinions on the services necessary to achieve your goals!

My experience at Van Michaels was amazing! I was treated with white glove service from a warm welcome served w/ refreshments, to a shoulder & head massage, to my awesome haircut & style, to checkout. Brandon & his assistant, Mira, are top notch stylists! He was so knowledgeable with hair and I put full trust in him to turn my thinning ugly hair into full, healthy and beautiful and he did just that! His assistant, Mira, had me feel right at home and an excellent job! Because of them, I will be back and highly recommend them!!!

I've had a couple of different stylists and colorists at Van Michael, and I've never had a bad experience either with their skill or their company. The visit is holistic to me: I appreciate the attention to detail, the conversation, having a cup of tea, enjoying my new hair color and cut, having someone much less lazy than I am blow out my hair, all of it.

This was one of the best experiences I’ve had. I recently moved to Atlanta and no idea where to go and get my hair cut. I was nervous originally it immediately was made to feel right at home! I’ll definitely be coming back again and again! Book with Rod, he’s fantastic!

Very good service! I was out of town and needed a blow dry for my mom, my daughter and me and they did great. It’s hard being out of town, not feeling well and with a family event and they did great job.
