Having just moved down here from upstate New York a year and a half ago, I have spent a good part of that first year going from one ""top"" salon to another. Either the cut wasn't right, or the color wasn't, or the atmosphere was too pretentious or too casual. I originally went to Paragon to have my extremely curly hair straightened with their special method, and loved it right from the start. It was intimate, the people were friendly and knowledgeable, and really took their time to make sure I was happy and comfortable. I then went back to try them for a hair cut and color, and I was hooked. I adore Sheb who does my hair ? the color is gorgeous and the cut is the best and most flattering I've ever had anywhere. He will spend whatever time is necessary to make it look right, as he is a perfectionist like me. Whenever I leave there, I get stopped by total strangers complimenting me on my hair and asking where I had it done for weeks after. I drive there from Smyrna, and would gladly drive twice as far.
Pros: the staff, the attention to detail, the color, the straightening, the hair cut
Cons: It's not cheap.
