Atmosp’hair

My experience was less than par. The only reason they are getting two stars is that they tried to fix the situation, but the damage was already done.
I went to Atmosphair a few months back to get a simple bob hair cut. I came with a photo of myself with the haircut I wanted from the last time I had gotten it cut in NY. My hairdresser had NO IDEA what she was doing. She started hacking at my hair with absolutely no confidence as to where she was cutting. As the situation was happening I was getting more and more panicky. I have no experience cutting hair but I could tell this wasn’t going well. When she finally claimed she was done it was completely uneven. Not only were the two sides of my head uneven, the layers were at different angles. I said that I didn’t think it was even and can you try to even it out and she started arguing with me, telling me I was wrong and didn’t know what I was talking about. I ended up paying and leaving extremely upset. I had a coupon for 50% off and it was still $ 35. I can’t believe the results would have cost $ 70!
The next day I called to speak to the owner who was extremely apologetic. She had me come in later that day for her to fix it. By this point she needed to make it a LOT shorter than I wanted it and told me that I need to bring a color photo for her stylists to be able to follow them. She also told me that I would get a coupon in the mail for a free haircut and to leave my address. The only stuff I get in the mail are coupons and advertisements. I will never go back there again.

Wow, what a great salon. The décor is amazing. I spent most of my time there looking around and trying to mentally make notes on what I liked.
My haircut was ok, just a trim and shape up really so nothing major. The scalp massage was pleasant and the whole place seemed to respect silence which was a nice change of pace.

Just had another great highlight and cut from Lyn. I definitely love what she does!

I can’t recommend Atmosp’hair and the owner, Lynn, highly enough. The place is beautiful but i would get my hair cut on the back of a moving flatbed truck if it meant getting a good haircut. They offer beer or wine while waiting and Lynn’s ridiculously cute dog, Zoe, is the ambassador.
The real story is about the haircut though. Lynn takes her time, working always with shears instead of just blasting an electric clipper through my hair. I haven’t had such an excellent haircut since moving to NC from Boston.
I know with all the «beautiful space» and «cute dog» stuff I’m not exactly making a case for World’s Manliest Unilocal Review, but Lynn rocks anyway.

It’s a full service salon, but I’ve been going in for haircuts. The staff is very friendly and I’ve been very happy with the cuts I’ve had. The interior build-​out is awesome! While I cannot comment on their other services, I definitely recommended Atmosp’hair for haircuts.

This was a great experience. A total european experience in the heart Durham. Totally unexpected, yet welcomed! if you haven’t made your appointment, make one! Amazing service mixed with fun and a flair for style. GO GO GO
