Defforge Hair Salon & Spa

In 7 years I?ve been to Atlanta I have forgotten that there is such a thing as an excellent customer service, talented and caring hair stylists and reasonable prices ? all in one! I was extremely happy to discover Defforge Saloon ? it not only met but exceeded my expectations! As a matter of fact, I am not only returning I am recommending this place to all of my friends and co-workers and I am taking my 3-year old daughter for a fancy and affordable haircut there today! more

I lived in New York for four years and never found a salon as wonderful as Defforge. Even on my first visit, everyone treated me like an old friend. I had my brows waxed and eyelashes dyed by Milla who made the experience as relaxing and refreshing as having a full facial. Next up was a haircut by Sergey - the best haircut I've ever had. They both took their time and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. I can't wait to go back! Pros: Ambience, Friendly Staff, Amazing Service Cons: none! more

I went to Defforge Salon after reading the great reviews here. I just moved back to the area from South Beach. My last haircut was a disaster, with the stylist at a high end SoBe salon misunderstanding my desire to ""keep the length"" and cut off about 8"". Now I'm trying to grow it out, and have been hesitant to cut it at all after the last bad experience. \r \r I had an appointment with Kathy this morning, who gave me a really cute & trendy cut that I can wear while I'm growing my hair out. Short, flippy with lots of layers. My appointment started with a brief but reassuring consultation, so I knew she understood what I was looking for, and I felt confident she could deliver. A great shampoo and scalp massage (my fave part of a haircut) was followed by a great cut, styling with instructions on how to do it at home, and once dry, a last touch up on some spots in my thick hair that once dry, looked a little heavy. Kathy is a perfectionist - and I'm glad! \r \r My hair is fabulous, and I can't wait for my friends to see it. So much so, I am re-thinking growing it out, I may just keep this cut for awhile. \r \r The entire staff at Defforge were friendly and professional. Sergi called me on Monday when they were closed to respond to my email request for an appointment first thing Tuesday. I can't tell you how impressed I was. And, it took that post-coif disaster fear away! This may have been the most positive experience I've ever had in a salon. I came home with the cut I asked for, and the ability to do it myself. I highly recommend Kathy and the Defforge Salon. I even made an appointment for 2 weeks from now for color! Pros: Chic Ambiance, Professional, Friendly, Skilled Stylists, Convenient Location Cons: NONE! more

I have been looking forever for a stylist who will listen to me, give me great recommendations, and teach me how to do my hair after I leave. I have finally found him!!! Sergiy did everything you expect from a top notch salon. In addition to the great work Sergiy did with my hair, the prices were fair, everyone else at the salon is so friendly, and the overall experience was excellent. I highly recommend and will never go anywhere else again. more

The space is beautiful, open, friendly and chic. I'd been here before but it's been a few years...the whole place has a new personality now...so much better than before. \r \r Milla gave me the best facial, I'm still glowing from it and it's been a few weeks.. Microdermabrasion, oxygen facial, all of it was so relaxing and the result is fantastic. I gave Sergiy an idea of what I wanted for my haircut and color, and I couldn't be happier with what he did. \r \r I've recommended Defforge to all of my friends and family - it was an overall fabulous experience. Pros: one-stop shop for skin and hair revival more

I would highly recommend this salon to anyone who would value a great service.the atmosphere is great and the staff are friendly .Sergey did an excellent work on my hair.The hair cut he gave me was stunning.My hair looks amazing and he took interest and gave me lot of styling tips.I would say this is one of the best salons. more

I honestly cannot say enough great things about the talent, the atmosphere and the service in this salon. \r I have tried many salons in the North Fulton area, and have not been satisfied with the results until I went to Defforge Salon and Spa. Prior to my going there, my hair had been damaged by other salons through overprocessing of color and bad haircuts (I have fine hair, and it doesn't style ""just like everyone else's""). Sergey, the owner, took time and care to explain what happened to my hair, and how to fix it. It has only been 3 months, and my hair has never looked, or felt better. He has an ""eye"" for knowing the right shade for my complexion and my style...he studied my hair to understand exactly how it grows. He communicates and educates. Not only do I look and feel great when I leave the salon, but I can go home and know that I will be able to style my hair the way he demonstrated. And if you want a great facial, need something waxed, or desire some other spa-oriented relaxation, ask for Mila, his wife. She will make you feel like family! Pros: Talent, Service, Products Used, Willingness to educate and communicate, Friendliness Cons: Salon is in the corner of a shopping center, so you can't see it driving by. more

I've been to many salons throughout the country and have only been impressed by a few. Defforge is wonderful and Kathy is by far, the best stylist and colorist I've ever had!! She took special care to make me look and feel beautiful and I knew instantly I was in expert hands. She's definitely a 10 in my book! Pros: Ambience, Service, Parking more

I have recently visited defforge salon and I was very pleased with my service. They really know how to roll the red carpet and value their clients. I was pleased with the color and the hair cut I received from Lucie. She took her time in her consultation phase and really listened to what I was looking. I was very please with the result and I'll definitely come back and would recomend the salon to my friends. If you are looking for a competent and professional environment, Defforge salon and Spa is the place to go. Although I did not get a chance to experience their spa services, I heard from close friends that Mila is very experienced and competent at her services. A facial will definitely be my next treat:) Pros: Friendly, professional Cons: none so far more

This salon was great. I went last week to Serge, picked the salon out of citysearch and they lived up to par. AMAZING CUT, perfect color, and you have to get the New Hair Treatment- 5 days later and my hair still feels uncommonly healthy! I have very fine hair and it's always breaking and dry but after this treatment I don't even recognize it. The salon makes you feel like family and the owner is sweet as pie. I will definitely return. Top-notch and very down to earth. Pros: Greate staff, eazy to get to (near 400 hwy) more

The salon is a welcome change from the pretentious atmosphere at so many ""high end"" salons. The wooden floors and European decor are relaxing and refreshing, and the techniques and products offered are top-notch. The staff is welcoming and professional. Raffael has cut my (difficult) hair for years, and he always does a fabulous job. I've never seen anyone leave his chair that didn't look great, cut or color-wise; his styling is up-to-date, without being too trendy. Many of the friends I've recommended him to have become long-term customers. Pros: ambience, parking, skill of hair stylists more

Pros: team work more

I was looking for a new hair stylist and desperately needed help with my color. I was recommended to Kathy at Defforge. I was superbly impressed the minute I walked in. I was immediately greeted by name and offered a drink of choice, including a chilled glass of white wine. After my consult, Kathy suggested a mixture of highlights that turned out so beautiful! I absolutely love my hair! I will definitely be going back! Kathy was so sweet and I plan to recommend her to all my friends!! more

I never looked better! I went into Defforge Salon with change on my mind! I was recommended from a friend who literally went from mousey to MODEL in and hour! The up-tempo music made me feel like I was walking into a fashion show. I told Sergiy ""my hair is in your hands!"" The detail and precision made me feel important! I received a phone call the next day from Sergiy himself, asking me if I liked my hair! I have never had a stylist care so much about their client. My answer to his question - ?I LOVE IT!? I will never get my hair cut and colored by anyone else!!! If you are looking for a change, color, trim, whatever- \r Defforge Salon is AMAZING. more

I found Defforge on the Cityserach. The reviews were great. He did absolutely great job. He was very patient and took his time. He is very professional and dedicated to make sure you live happy. I was very pleased with the results. Definitely return for next visit!!! more

This place is really incredible. The staff is so friendly. The quality of their haircuts is amazing and the price is so reasonable. I have been coming here to get my haircut for 2 years and I wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Sergey has cut my hair and I would highly recommend him. Do yourself a favor - and give them a try! more

I visited the stylist Sergey at Defforge and I absolutely love my haircut!! He was upbeat and friendly so was the desk girl and another stylist that offered me tea. I wasn't pressured to buy alot of products either. I will definately be back!! more

All I can say is that Defforge salon is awesome. You are relaxed the minute you walk in. The stylists are friendly, helpful and fun. All of them are awesome. Sergey, who did my hair, is top notch. He is current on styles and techniques in color and cuts. Not to mention she has a hilarious down-to-earth personality. I highly recommend checking him and this salon out. more

When I first moved to Atlanta three years, I was desperate to find a good salon. I tried several salons before trying Defforge. Many made me feel unwelcome or that they didn't want my busines...I have thick, wavy and unruly hair. Sergey does such a great job. He always takes time to understand my needs. I have never been happier with my hair style and cut. The staff always makes me feel welcome and their flexability with my schedule is great. Each time I leave, I always feel like I got my money's worth and more. I would definitely recommend Defforge. more

I'm very picky about my hair and I just wanted to write a quick note to say that I loved my visit to the parlour. Everybody was so nice. It's a beautiful and intimate little place and the other customers around me were all loving their hair too. I saw Sergey for a haircut and I'll be going back soon for color. He listened carefully to what I wanted to do and I felt like there was nothing more important to him in the world at the time other than me and my hair. He's a pro! more
