Shē Salon

Shē Salon was founded by Gina Palmer, the owner and master stylist who has more than 20 years of experience as a stylist. The salon states that its team is licensed, and it is located in the Castleberry Hill area close to Downtown Atlanta.

Services are grouped into styling, cuts and trims, texturizing, color, conditioning treatments and consultation. Most categories take 45 minutes or more, and consultations average about 30 minutes. Color appointments are approached consultatively, with the aim of protecting hair integrity, and the salon places a strong focus on hair health across its services.

Individual prices are listed on Gina Palmer's StyleSeat profile rather than on the salon's own site. Examples there include a consultation for $50 (30 minutes), a root touch-up for $80 (30 minutes), partial highlights for $150 (30 minutes), a shampoo and silk press for $125 (1 hour, depending on length and density) and color correction starting at $150 (2 hours 30 minutes, with the price varying by how much product is needed).

According to the salon, it is award-winning. It reports earning Best of Atlanta honors from Atlanta Tribune Magazine and a Proclamation from the City of Atlanta. Media appearances it lists include broadcast TV segments and coverage in Black Bride Magazine, Essence, and Urban MD on Fox Soul.

Parking options include a preferred spot directly behind Paschal's, accessed from Northside Drive, with visitor spaces along the fence. Off-street parking is also available on either side of Stonewall St. and in the Intown Lofts visitor lot, and a lot on Nelson Street at the Bookstore sits directly across from Atlantucky.

Takes a consultative, education-driven approach to color with the aim of protecting hair integrity, and places a strong focus on hair health across all services.
