Gunn Glamour Hair, Makeup, and Bridal

Samantha was so pleasant and professional. My cousins wedding was at the Hyatt and we all look beautiful! 5 different updo’s and the bride Gorgeous! Make sure to book Samantha for your wedding

Samantha is unprofessional rude and overbearing. She was disrespectful to my mother in law when she was getting her hair done for our wedding. She was also an hour late to do my wife’s hair and then had the audacity to make excuses. She looked hungover while working and we paid good money to hire her. When my wife asked her for specific requests she rolled her eyes and made faces. She’s talented but not worth booking her because you don’t know if she’ll show up. Best bet is go elsewhere! That type of stress is not worth it on the morning of your wedding.

There is no one who has ever been able to cut my hair the way I wanted it before I met Sam! I’ve been getting my hair cut with her for about two years since I moved to Atlanta and have never had a problem. The best part about Sam is how flexible she’ll be with your hours – I work late and she has even let me come over as late as 8:30 to get a haircut!
I actually met her when my wedding planner suggested her as a potential vendor for hair/makeup…while i was absolutely smitten with Sam’s glow and energy and of course her skills, I couldn’t afford her at the time and decided to cut costs by going with another vendor. I can’t imagine Sam ever dissatisfying a client based on my experience with my numerous haircuts over the last few years. She has a true talent (as evident by her social media pages which boast her ability to repeatedly glamorize several country music celebrities!) for hair and makeup and I am so glad I found her! If you’re curious, give her a chance – I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised :)

I recently was in the Atlanta area for a weekend of wedding events. I booked Gunn Glamour for two events, both were for hair and Makeup services. The artist arrived late on both days, even after I stressed to her the importance of having me ready on time and confirming several times with her directly the time. Before I arrived in Atlanta I had already showed several pictures of the looks that I wanted for day one and for day 2. There were several conversations so the hair and makeup concepts were very clear. The artist came late as I said before so that started things off on a bad note right away. She knew exactly and clearly what I would like done, the first day’s makeup was so bad and completely did not match my skin tone and the overall look of what I asked for! I had to wash my face off after she left and redo my own makeup. (Which made me even later to the event). While she was there I was clearly upset and unsatisfied with what she was doing and let her know. She kept going and would not listen to any of my recommendations, input. My hair was also not done to my satisfaction. Before she left on the first day I asked her if I could have her only charge me for the hair and she replied that no I would still be charged for both days And for all services, regardless of my satisfaction or what services she would be doing on the following day. Not having any other choice and not being from the Area I felt completely trapped in something that I was not happy with.. The next day since I already had to pay the total price of hair and make up, I let her do my hair again but she did not do my makeup. This company has a clear lack of professionalism and customer service and definitely not worth the fee that they charge for the quality of product.

My experience with Gunn Glamour was one of the most unprofessional, irritating experiences of my life. Allow me to explain why. I was referred to Samantha by a friend as someone I should talk to for my wedding day hair. I reached out to her via email, and her assistant got back to me to set up an appointment for a trial.
When I arrived for my appointment, the first issue was just finding the damn place. Her «salon» is located in a mixed use condo building and the entrance is on the side of the building and not very well marked. When I did find it, I was buzzed in and told to head upstairs.
Once upstairs, I was greeted by issues 2 through 10. A barking Pomeranian was just the start of what was wrong with this picture. Add to that the nasty ass hair extensions being washed in the sink, and I was already on edge before the appointment even started. Apparently Samantha had just moved into this space. The downstairs was going to be the salon and the upstairs is where she would live. However since she wasn’t done unpacking, I had to step over a couple boxes to get to the couch for a consultation.
Once on the couch, Samantha couldn’t be bothered to turn off the TV, she just turned Dr. Phil down a few notches so we didn’t have to yell over his southern drawl. After talking for a few minutes about what I was envisioning for my wedding day hair, we were interrupted by a friend of hers who wanted to stop by and hang out. He couldn’t have been nicer, but I would have preferred that he and Ms. Gunn have their ten minute conversation after my appointment had concluded.
So at this point I’m finally in the chair. Let me preface this next part by saying I have a pixie haircut. There’s only so many options, and the two possibilities I was considering were some sort of pompadour, and a messy braid with my bangs. Neither option is particularly labor intensive or time consuming for a stylist. In fact, after determining that my hair was a little too short for the braid option and then moving on to a pompadour, we wrapped up the entire appointment in less than 20 minutes (her assistant insisted that Samantha liked to budget an hour for her brides). All in all, a couple spritzes of hairspray and exactly zero bobby pins were used. Not to mention only a third of the time allotted.
As I was grabbing my stuff to go, I asked Samantha what I could pay her. Let me jump back a minute… This was my first time getting any sort of trial hair or makeup done. Apparently it’s something you normally have to pay for, but I wasn’t really sure either way. I’d been referred by a friend (who is very good friends with Samantha) and when I made the appointment, there was no mention of a fee. So in the back of my mind, considering how little actually had been done to my hair, I expected her to tell me either that it was free, or at most, I could pay her $ 25. So imagine my surprise when she ran my credit card and I went to sign and it was $ 75. FOR SOME HAIRSPRAY.
I’m not a particularly confrontational person, so I told her that I hadn’t been told it would be that expensive, or that there was any charge at all. She apologized, blaming it on a new assistant, and offered to charge me $ 50 instead of $ 75 (her normal rate, apparently). I was so dumbstruck I didn’t argue, paid for my overpriced updo, and peaced out.
I left the place fuming. I couldn’t believe how incredibly unprofessional the entire experience had been. Now, this all happened months ago. I’ve been trying to decide if I should just let it go or write a review, and I finally decided that I needed to get it off my chest. A final warning: if you’re going to patronize Gunn Glamour, go in with low expectations.

Gunn Glamour is the place and company to goto for all your beauty needs. I attended a wedding of a close friend and being in the fashion industry, I had to find out who did the hair and makeup because the bride, bridesmaids looked absolutely amazing.
Come to find out, Gunn Glamour has been featured on T.V., films, and some of the most stylish extravagent weddings and events all across the southeast. Gunn glamour is the only style company I will ever use.
