The BEST Cut & Color in Town: Vis A Vis The Salon

I've been to many salons over the years - from upscale to mainstream - and while many have been good, some not so much AND then along comes Vis A Vis The Salon - THE VERY BEST!

Vis A Vis The Salon owner, Jeffery McQuithy and I have been friends for quite a few years now; Jeffrey Fashion Cares is our connection. I've never been in the salon for services but when I told Jeffrey I was selected for Modern Luxury's Men of Style he said come in and let us make you look your best. I did and I am so ecstatic that I just had to share my experience with you.  

Now, I know that hair and beauty are sacred things and if you have a loyal bond and relationship with your stylist, keep it - BUT if you don't or you're looking to try something new, something fresh, then you must pay a visit to Vis A Vis The Salon. You'll fall in love as I did. From the moment you valet your car and you're greeted by the super friendly front desk, offered a beverage and a seat, it is first class all the way. Victor did my color and Sarah the cut and if they are a reflection of the caliber of expertise at Vis A Vis The Salon (they are) then you are at the best skilled hands in Atlanta. It wasn't just the superior level of services that impressed me but the quality of personal care and comfort provided.

At 51, with very short hair (and not as much as I used to have) I didn't think it was possible to be this excited and feel this good about a haircut. So today, I am a cheerleader for Vis A Vis The Salon for their excellent service and friendly approach. Do something nice for yourself!

I got my cut yesterday and got a chance to meet and chat with Rudy's CEO, Brendon Lynch. They are very excited to be in Atlanta and feel there is a hip crowd here that will embrace Rudy's. I can tell you, there is and they will. While the space is full service, ,offering everything from a basic haircut to coloring, Rudy's is a welcoming place - you want to enter and the staff makes you feel welcome.
