Aqua Aveda Concept Salon

Save your money ladies... this place is a DUMP! Walked in and walked right back out. Older female hairdresser was spouting in her loudest redneck voice, personal and intimate details that I could not believe!! Looked around - place is very unsanitrary and low class. Staff is exceedingly low class and untrained. Can't figure out how utilize the word ""upscale"" in adverting their business. That is one groupon I would rather trash than have anyone in there touch me. more

Do Not Buy This Groupon! .....Unless you want to waste your money. Booked an appointment, and waited for 2 hours to actually be seen by the manicurist. And it was the worst mani/pedi I have ever had. She rushed through every step of the process and I left with my nails looking worse than when I came in. Stupidly bought this with my mother and sister and we all had to endure really crappy work. Never again.\r \r Proceed with caution (and bring a book to read).. or better yet... go somewhere else more

I agree this experience was not pleasant. If you are tempted to use the Groupon for two mani/pedi services ... DON'T! First off you must make an appointment, which isn't too bad except I couldn't get an appointment sooner than a week away. Secondly, I had been there for a mani/pedi the previous year and was told the Groupon was for New Customers only. After this disappoinment, I was also told by the rude receptioninst that they would not give services for the face value of the Groupon and you must get the refund from Groupon directly. Lastly, the groupon is for (2) mani/Pedi services but both must be used by the same person. While I was there, I overheard another customer complaining about that as well.\r \r I can not tell you how disappointed I was, and I don't remember the mani/pedi being very good anyway. I imagine to get people to come in they have to use a groupon that sounds like a good deal but it is not worth it. more

Terrible Terrible Terrible. Do Not Get this from Groupon.!!!!!!! The worst experience ever. Very unprofessional and did not do a good job. I hated I purchase this from groupon. I will be careful from here on to check the rating. Do not recommend at all. more

TERRIBLE. UNPROFESSIONAL. BEWARE. RUN AWAY. I purchased a Groupon for my mother at Aqua Spa and Salon in Tucker, Georgia. My mother went in to redeem her service a couple of days later and they told her she needed to make an appointment. They scheduled her for an appointment for today, July 3, 2013. After her arrival to the salon, my mother sat for 20 minutes before she was greeted by anyone on the Staff. The salon staff member (Ginger) then informed her that the nail technician was stuck in traffic and would be there momentarily. My mother then sat there for 30 minutes before becoming fed up and realizing she was going to be late for my brothers wedding. SHe tells Ginger that she has a busy schedule and Ginger then informed her that the technician would not be coming in. Instead of being up front with my mother she allowed her to sit for an hour before notifying her. She then had the audacity to tell my mother that she can ""get a refund on the Groupon"". I am completely disgusted by the treatment my mother received when not only was she a paying customer, she waited patiently, and had two appointments made that the salon cancelled. There service was inconsiderate and unprofessional and I will make it my civic duty to warn everyone in the Tucker, Atlanta, and Smokerise area of this horrible horrible place. more

Do not go to this salon. I recently went for a manicure and pedicure, and it was the worst experience I've ever had. I'm pretty sure the employee had zero experience performing a manicure (didn't soak my hands and nails, added acetone straight into the nail polish bottle to 'loosen it up') which resulted in a sloppy polish job- I honestly could have done a better one myself, and actually removed the polish when I got home. If this wasn't bad enough.. the whole process took 2 hours, which I don't have time for that. Save yourself the trouble and DONT go here. more

I had been searching for a new place near our new home, trying out several in the area we found Aqua Salon in Tucker, we were extremely surprise about the service, great cuts and color service , my two girls and I had been faithful followers of top salons in Atlanta, we worried not to find a new Salon for us in Tucker, so happy that Carlos and the crew at Aqua made our visit extremely professional. more

I went today to use my Half off depot certificate, which was for a highlight and cut. Kristye Wilson, the stylist did an awesome job, she did exactly what I asked for. I normaly go to Jamison Shaw, but to be honest with you their quality has decreased and their snobbery has increased. That being said I feel like I have found a great, new salon. Thanks again Kristye! more

I had came to Aqua Salon for a color because it was messed up by my other stylist so I tried this place. My stylist, did a consultation w/ me and assured that I would look like I wanted when I left. She said she was doing a corrective color. When she was finished, it looked the best it has ever looked in years! My haircut look even more fabulous. I was so pleased and had to write this review. I read the comment below and I assure you, she is licensed! I am going to recommend her to everyone, her name is Kristye Wilson. Be sure to go to her, I know she does a wonderful job. Cant speak for the rest of the salon though. more

I waited a full week since my appointment at Aqua Salon to write this review, as I was hopeful I'd feel better about my experience there after some time to process and reflect. Here it is a week later and I am still extremely unhappy with my chop job and the ""massage"" I received. Let's start with the ""massage."" I must preface this by saying that the massage therapist was a very sweet lady, and I have nothing against her personally. However, I hold quite a bit of tension in my shoulders and upper back, and when I shell out a chunk of change for a massage, I except the therapist to really go to town on my back and relieve some of the tension. My massage experience at Aqua was more like a tickle. There was no real rubbing or massage to it at all, it consisted of only light touches all over my body, most of which were focused on my front half. Furthermore I paid for an hour massage and it only lasted 45 minutes. The haircut is where things really went wrong. I have--correction, HAD--long curly hair down to my mid-back. I told the stylist that I only wanted to clean up the damaged ends of my hair, and to please take off no more than 2-3 inches, as I wanted my hair length to remain well below my shoulders. I showed her with my hands how much to cut off and made it very clear that, as my hair is very curly, it shrinks up when it is dry (since it goes around and around in spirals, instead of straight down my back). She assured me she would not cut it short, and then proceeded to cut off at least 6 inches. I gasped after the first cut and asked her to show me how much she'd just cut...it was waaaay more than we had just discussed. I politely expressed my displeasure but at this point there was nothing I could do about it. I asked her to finish the hair cut and bit my lip trying not to cry. When she finished the chop job my hair was just at shoulder length when it was blown out straight. When it's curly it is well above my shoulders, which was my worst nightmare. It will take me at least a year to grow it back out. I am still baffled as to how a licensed stylist can discuss the needs of their client and not follow through on what has been very clearly articulated only moments prior. I have never written a negative review before, and as I mentioned I wanted to wait until I was not caught up in the emotion I was feeling right after this all took place last week. However, after a week of thinking this over and dealing with an absolutely horrid hair cut, I would feel remiss if I did not warn potential clients of Aqua Salon as to how sub par my experience was there. The whole ordeal felt like amateur hour at the salon, and was the worst experience I've had in this industry to date. more

I highly recommend the Aqua Salon in Tucker! My hair cut & style by Ashlee was simply wonderful. She sincerely listened to what I wanted and then gently made suggestions that greatly improved upon my original idea. My shampoo was relaxing and she improved my hair texture dramatically by the conditioners she used on it. I love my hair cut! It is very easy to maintain and is exactly the look I wanted. more

I really like Aqua! It is stylish, but not pretentious. Everyone who works there is really nice and fun. They have plenty of products, but they aren't pushy about selling them. And most importantly, I am really happy with my hair when I walk out the door, and still happy with it weeks later. I have been seeing Sophie for haircuts since August and actually just sent my husband to her as well. It is reasonably priced, especially for the quality of cut and style we're getting. And, I can usually get in the same week that I call for an appointment. I highly recommend Aqua and Sophie. Pros: Great haircut, fun, fresh atmosphere, convenient location. Cons: None. more

The best in town, cost effective and high standars for quality of service. From the moment you walk in is an immediate full service salon. Extremely attentive and friendly. The most diverse service salon I've ever experience. The largest stock beauty supply and retail gift shop in the area. I will give it high marks and a great review for my hair experience as wel as my nail and skin care services. You don't want to miss it!!! more

My personal experience has been memorable thanks to the talents of the Aqua Salon Team; my hair was in caos due to a color disaster going bad. My regular hair guru in Buckhead deside it to try something new with my hair...(never do that before a job interview). My hair was given all sorts of metalic green shades and my gray color was blue. :O. The ""master colorist"" try to fix it; no such luck,and so I went back home with black hair. My stressful meeting was all about my black hair and the ""blue green "" color you get just in the right light. Aqua Salon was recomended by my secretary she said that they could do miracles...I doubted the posibilities, to my surprise there ware a few diferent ways to solve the problem. My hair looks great and better than ever, now I wish I would have come here before my meeting...maybe I would have gotten a second meeting lined up by now.lol. I experienced a full service salon for the first time, Fabian was great , one of the best massage, and Ada gave me the best shampoo ever. Pros: A one stop shop- all services available. And lots of retail more

This place is like a refreshing new surprise; I've been a faithfull customer to a very well established salon in Atlanta. My stylist was ""too bussy for me"", so I deside it to try my girlfriend's place while shopping in that area; didn't know what to expect; to my surprise I was sweept of my feet with the full service atmosphere, tasteful design and ever so fullfilling experience. I love my hair and the price for my color service, love my new Stylist Hailey . The staff make sure that I was taken care off at all times. Helena offered me a head massage while I waited for my appoinment. That's a rouitine I learned. I will give this place a high score for quality service, professional, warm and extremely clean enviroment; absolutly one of a kind experience. Newly innovated facility Best of Atlanta at any time. Pros: 15 minutes from Buckhead and Midtown, Ambiance, Price Cons: traffic around noon more
