Continental Styles

Do not come here. This was the worst salon I have ever been to in my life. I am certain that they do not have any training. I’m not picky at all — but half my hair was being ripped out because it was being blow dried with a flat plastic brush instead of a round proper one. He did not brush the knots out of my hair before drying and did not section it. None of he brushes appeared to have been cleaned between clients. Once I told them I was from New York they overcharged me $ 50 for a terrible blow dry that ripped my hair out and left me with flat, unstyled hair. Looking at the prices on their site I am certain they ripped me off but I paid and left because I was going to miss a flight. I am absolutely horrified by this experience.

Beautiful, efficient, well-​run salon. Did a meticulous cut, couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Haircut was decent. Prices indicate ladies haircuts start at $ 35 and up for cut, blow-​dry and style. I had long hair but only asked for a basic haircut — trim off dead ends and clean up angles in front (only have a few). No layers, and my hair is stick straight and really easy to manage. She took eons to blow dry my hair and it was really frizzy, then charged me $ 55 for everything. If I had known my hair qualified for that much of a mark up I would have never gone there. I just needed a haircut and went on my lunch break for the convenience since I work in Peachtree Center. For that price, I would have gotten in my car and gone to a nicer salon (which I was trying to avoid).

CHERYL M. has literally changed my life by becoming my hair stylist! She is extremely knowledgeable, very professional, efficient, and just an all around great person to have run her fingers through your hair.
I first came to Cheryl on a friend’s recommendation, and immediately the conversation proved that not only was Cheryl a serious craftsman in her field who takes great pride in her work, but she’s a caring and passionate mother and friend with a great personality! I always look forward to my appointments with Cheryl because I know I’ll be cute afterward (HELLO) and I will have just enjoyed a great conversation with her.
The salon is small but suitable for their clientele’s needs. I’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes to be serviced, and I never have to worry about Cheryl devoting attention to two or three clients at a time, which is SO valuable! I’ve never before received such focused attention from a hair stylist, and me thinks I like it! From what I’ve witnessed, Cheryl and the others stylists of Continental Styles are very well capable of servicing many ethnicities of hair textures and styles.

In Atlanta for a conference, my husband was looking shaggy and unkempt after a day walking around a convention hall and a flight 14 hours earlier. At 5:30 PM, we asked the concierge at the Ritz Carlton, where we were staying, to find a barber within walking distance. We were directed to Continental Styles in Peachtree Center, and our concierge called to alert them to our arrival. We walked a couple blocks down to the salon and crossed the threshold 5 minutes before closing. The desk attendant was quick to shoosh us away, but when we mentioned our concierge’s referral, the owner (whose name I have unfortunately forgotten) graciously agreed to tackle my husband’s unruly mane even though staff was already cleaning for the evening.
In spite of the eleventh hour arrival, this was not a rush job. The owner took his time as if we’d arrived for the first morning appointment. Not only did my husband get a fantastic wash and cut, but he was able to get his beard groomed and the owner trimmed his eyebrows, ear AND nose hair, and he left with no stray hairs on his clothing. That was pretty awesome since we were meeting family for dinner. My spouse looked like a million bucks… a feat I didn’t think possible given his appearance when we walked in. My husband lamented that he couldn’t visit this man on a regular basis, since he’s never had anyone pay such close attention to his grooming needs.
This is an owner who is a master at customer service! I tipped $ 20 on a $ 35 tab, but would have cheerfully done more if I’d had the cash on hand. (Note: tips in cash only, not on the credit card.) Bravo, sir. Bravo!!! When we’re back in town, my husband is saving his haircut for your capable hands!

This is my place — period. Tom is my stylist and has been for 17 years. Unlike many others, Tom listens, suggests and is a precision-​cutting master at his profession. The only thing I can say further is that — on occassion — I’ve been convinced by others to try this person or that person and, inevitably, I come back to Tom like a wounded puppy unveiling a Edward Scissorhands mess for him to fix.
Thanks Tom for being my one constant over the years. He’s outlasted a divorce, a marriage, another divorce, three kids-​now adults and always, always greets me with a smile, ready to transform me from haggard to healthy in his 45 minute «vacation» booth I look forward to like an oasis. Love you Tom… and if you ever go anywhere… take me with you! :)
