About

Beauty Shock Salon sits on 5th Avenue South in Birmingham and describes itself as a hidden gem in the city.

The space reflects Birmingham's industrial scene and pop culture, and the atmosphere is upbeat and playful. Visits are built around a personal consultation: every haircut starts with a conversation with a stylist, followed by a custom hair design and salon styling.

Color is a major part of the menu. Clients can choose a semi-permanent gloss with or without added color, natural-looking highlights and lowlights, partial maintenance appointments to refresh earlier highlight or lowlight work, and root touch-ups or full-coverage color. Permanent color is mixed to a custom formula each time.

Keratin treatments are offered in three forms: Keratin Express, Full Keratin and a Personalized Blowout. Pricing depends on how much hair a client has and how thick it is. The salon notes that keratin work can reduce blow-dry time and frizz.

Add-on treatments include evo Great Hydrator Moisture Treatment, evo Mane Prescription Repair Treatment and Fabuloso Shine Treatment. Styling services cover blowouts, updos and bridal updos. Service prices are estimates, since several factors can change the final cost.

The salon puts education and product knowledge at the center, for both its staff and its clients.

An upbeat, playful space with decor inspired by Birmingham's industrial scene and pop culture.
