Best Outcome From a Hairy Situation

West End Salon

When SoCo landmark Hairy Situations shut its doors earlier this year and its talented crew scattered in the hair-stylist diaspora, we were bereft. Luckily, the best of them – Amber Terry, Laura Rabakon, Pam Ross, Ray Ramos, Rachel McDaniel, and Johanna Escobar – found their way to West End Salon, lodged in a sweet little bungalow in the low-key, leafy neighborhood west of Downtown. We flock there for the talent, but the comfy atmosphere and the rest of the sharp, friendly staff is the icing on top.
