Most Missed Iconic Hair Salon Dynasty

Deborah Carter's Pink Salon

Most Missed Iconic Hair Salon Dynasty
Todd V. Wolfson

It's the beginning of the end of an era. Deborah Carter and her dynasty of daughters Farah and Brooke shut the doors at the très popular SoCo landmark Pink Hair Salon & Gallery in July, 10 years after they redefined what South Congress was all about. Deborah was always a woman of immense intuition, and she knew when it was time for her to move on to other pursuits. Pink's bubble-icious neon sign will no longer light up the night. We may be sorry to have lost the salon, but are richer for the experience of having had it.
