Great salon with a Fantastic owner. After reading reviews on CN salon I made an appointment with the owner Chris. I was greeted by a friendly receptionist who asked if I wanted something to drink. I was then whisked off to get a great shampoo by a nice young lady. I waited for Chris at his chair. After years of sticking with the same stylist in Buckhead, I was hoping I could find one in Kennesaw or Acworth. Boy did I find one! Chri... Read More On CitysearchwillfromAcworth 11/4/2009
My new favorite salon! I visited Chris Nicholson Salon for the first time last week. Amanda Glynn was the stylist that cut & highlighted my hair. She did an awesome job. I can say she really listened to me. I have bounced around salons for about a year now looking for a stylist like her. I will absolutely be back and will recommend her to all my friends and family as well. Read More On CitysearchCJinVinings 9/22/2009
Davids Got TALENT!!!!!!!! A gifted stylist. I have lived in Atl for 8 years. I have gone to many upscale salons for highlights and haircuts. I have to say David exceeded my expectations.What a gifted stylist! He did a great job on my highlights and haircut., he was friendly and professional as well. I have been asked by many people where I get my hair done. I would recommend David to anyone who wants beautiful healthy hair. The staff was ... Read More On Citysearchcheechuck 5/13/2009

A Great Cut and Color.... Always I've had my hair cut/styled by Chris since high school (I'm now 37), and he is always upbeat and fun, and his staff is great! There is always a "smile" on the phone when I call for an appointment, and Chris is always good about squeezing me in if I need a cut on-the-fly! Shannon did my last highlights, cute streaks (peek-a-boo's is what she called them) through my hair, and I LOVE them. The sa... Read More On Citysearch2monkies 10/15/2008
Great haircut - great atmosphere I was very impressed with the Chris Nicholson salon. Peaceful, serene, adult atmosphere (and as a Mom to young children this is a treat!), and very friendly service from the entire staff. Brenda was wonderful; very knowledgable and attentive. She listened to my concerns and helped me make a decision about a new cut and color - which I LOVE! And the price was very resonable. I left feeling gr... Read More On Citysearchtennismommy 9/21/2008
Excellent service! I just left the salon. It was my first visit. I WILL be back. It was by far the best experience that I've ever had. The atmosphere is awesome. The conversation was great. Everyone was pleasant and fun. And my hair looks great. I really couldn't ask for more. Read More On Citysearchsrf99 7/30/2008
Talented Stylist I have been a client of this Salon for over a decade....once, every four weeks for a hair cut., additionally a minimum of 3 times per year for highlights....that extrapolates to approximately 200 hours of time I've spent at the Chris Nicholson Salon. There are many choices in the area. I chose Chris Nicholson's Salon for their professionalism, talent, and pleasant surroundings.

Great Salon! I could not believe people would write that stuff about Chris. He is not my stylist but he always smiles or waves when he walks past. I love this salon and love the staff. The front desk is amazing! I recently came in and had a very very tiny problem and the lady was all smiles as she helped me. I have seen many diffrent stylist there and I am pleased every time I walk out the door. I will conti... Read More On CitysearchAshlynat 3/27/2008

Salon First of all I have been going to Chris Nicholson Salon and Spa for quite sometime. I would like to state a few things about myself, I am 38 with two kids of my own (sarah 4, jake 1). And I know better to bring my kids to a Salon and Spa. And if you don't know the definition of SALON or SPA, you might want to look it up. I also arrange for a babysitter when I go out for pampering. And if you can'... Read More On CitysearchHensonVal 3/25/2008
Chris Nicholson Spa is the best service I have ever had. I have been a client of Chris Nicholson for a long time. I have always had top notch service from the time I call to make my appointment, check in at the front desk to getting my hair washed,and of course my great hair cut and color . Chris, the owner does my hair and I wouldn't consider going anywhere else. I was disgusted and appalled by the review from the lady who brought her child in with...

Was there! I wonder if the person who wrote the review that Chris screamed at a pregnant lady was even there. I was several seats down that day and can tell you that the lady had a young child with her in a stroller and most likely ruined the experience of everyone getting their hair done that day. When you go to the salon and check in there is a sign asking you to please not bring in children who do not ... Read More On Citysearchmomof369 3/25/2008
INDESCRIBABLE I was present on the day of the baby crying in the stroller too! I was sitting under the dryer on the right side of the salon. And Renee does my highlights and cut. BEST IN TOWN!!!!!!! I as well don't want to go to a salon and pay to have screaming kids around. Its exactly what the woman said with the two kids COMMON COURTSEY. Call and ask when its a slow time during the day so you are not bothe... Read More On CitysearchMrsCooperA 3/25/2008
Can't even go there... To yell at a woman who is pregnant and with her child is sinful and unprofessional. Really...did it make you feel bigger to belittle her? I am aghast. Maybe if you stop overbooking you will be less stressed when the occasional child fusses. Most salon owners are happy to try to distract a child while their mother receives her services. You certainly do not market your business as friendly to pare... Read More On CitysearchJennieSoHot 3/24/2008
Bald and sad in Kennesaw!! After reading the review about the verbal abuse of a client, I have a negative experience that tops that! I was feeling a bit down after my husbands deployment overseas and thought that a day at the salon would help to cheer me up. Unfortunately Chris (the owner) was the one that my appointment was with. He would not listen to what I wanted, and insisted that I could not have been in better ha... Read More On Citysearchthanx2chrisiambald 3/23/2008
If I could give lower than 1 star, I would >:( I was absolutely disgusted beyond words to witness the way the owner of this place spoke to a customer! There was a woman in there getting her hair done who was with a small child. The child started to get upset at the end of the visit, which was really not a big deal...I have children and it happens. This ignorant man, Chris Nicholson himself, approached the woman and told her to leave! He y... Read More On Citysearchtuttinudi 3/22/2008
Bad hair experience Very bad experience with James. He never greeted me before having my hair washed so there was no discussion about the haircut. When he asked what I was looking for I showed him a picture and he agreed it would work on my hair and would be a good cut. When he started working he turned my chair so that my back was away from the mirror and I couldn't see what he was doing. When I asked when he ... Read More On CitysearchSadHair 2/18/2008

Best color ever!!! Michael has colored my hair 3 times now and has always done a phenomenal job. The lady that had the problem most likely had damaged hair before she even got to Micheal. Micheal has always taken the condition of my hair into account before he colors it. He knows exactly what to use that won't damage my fine hair. He is trustworthy and one of the sweetest people I know. If you have him as your styl... Read More On Citysearchltar21480 10/30/2007
Couldn't agree more! I can not believe the review I read about Michael below. Michael has been doing my hair for a long time now. I think that he is one of the best at what he does. Everytime I have had my hair done by Michael it always looks better than it did the time before. His color skills are dead on and the cut is always perfect! Many of my family and friends go to Michael as well, and every one of them have h... Read More On Citysearchjd52 10/29/2007
APPALLED! I decided to check out the reviews for Chris Nicholson, and I was shocked to see the review below about Michael, who happens to be my stylist. I have been seeing him for about a year now, and my color and highlights have always come out absolutely gorgeous! Many of my family members go to him as well, and are always satisfied. Nobody knows what this previous reveiwer's hair was like before she ev... Read More On Citysearchsf4987 10/28/2007
fried hair I got highlights from Michael and asked for ash blonde. He gave me brassy yellow and gold and my hair is completely fried. Since Michael left before my hair was dry, Chris offered to have me come back to get it fixed. No way would I go back to him. It's like straw, I'm afraid to have any more chemicals put on it to correct the color. Chris is nice and does a good cut. Read More On Citysearchpinkgladiola 10/18/2007

on-time never I can't tell you how many times I showed up at this salon to find my stylist over booked for the day, unable to cut my hair or not there all together.

Got a great hair cut! I had never been here before and went for a haircut eight months pregnant. Not feeling so lovely these days, but the stylist was very friendly - listened and cut my hair just how I like. The receptionists were a little snooty and I was annoyed that there was a $2 fee to get cash back for tips. That's very very lame, but I did it anyway - cause you can't not tip. Also, their products smelled wonde... Read More On Citysearchsarah_d77 12/5/2006
Best Salon ever ! I love going to Chris for my hair care. The people are wonderful and my highlights and cut were great .

David Is Great So I went in not expecting much as the night before I had gone to a different salon and they really messed my hair up. I was a normal brunette and had asked for blonde highlights and left that other salon 6 hours later with bleach blonde hair and a few random strands of my natural colored hair. Saturday became a frenzy to find someone to fix it before the workweek and my trip to meet my boyfrie... Read More On Citysearchlagg1982 8/26/2006
Average all around. Everything here is average except for the prices. Nothing special about the salon itself. It is clean with basic decor. Nothing even to mention. The stylists are friendly, sort of. They want to portray that upper salon attitude, but they fall short, probably because they need help with there own styles. I was expecting an above average cut and color for the price I paid. But, I looked about... Read More On CitysearchCitysearch User 8/16/2006

Was lucky enough to have the one and only Chris do my hair for a few years.
I moved away, and there went the good hair. Many have tried, I have given up
