I'm kind of torn while writing this review. I've been going to Claiborne's for over a year now and have recieved great service but it leaves me wanting more. Living in Atlanta I expect something cutting edge (especially from seeing all of the work that they have had published in different hair magazines) but this would be a category they are lacking in. The nondescript building might have been a give away but go inside and you are then sure of what awaits for you. From the magnolia blossoms on the wall to the boring decor you may confuse yourself with your grandmothers hair salon. The whole place could use a good thorough cleaning (think Tabatha's Salon Makeover). It's not all that dirty but I did see hair in places where it shouldn't be. The stylists do a good job but you are not going to get the newest, trendiest style here. If you want great blonde highlights or a fantastic wash and wear cut then you have come to the right place, but if you want cutting edge then you might want to travel a few more miles into buckhead. I'm not saying that they don't have the talent to do that caliber of work, but it seems like that is not the focus. Judge for yourself but I wish they would update the services and the decor and become a modern, trendy salon that i would feel comfortalbe referrering my friends who are below 50 to.
