✨ Skin Tip: Apply your skincare on damp skin — not dry! 💧
Why? Because slightly damp skin helps products absorb better, lock in hydration, and give you that plump, glowing finish.Think of it like a sponge — it soaks things up best when it’s already a little moist! 🧽✨Pro tip: After cleansing, lightly pat (don’t fully dry!) and go straight in with your serum or moisturizer.Book an appointment 👇

🟣 Violet Shampoo vs. Bleach – Know the Difference! 💡Let’s clear up a common misconception: Violet shampoo CANNOT lighten your hair like bleach can – especially if your hair is still very yellow or brassy.🔬 Here’s why:
•	Bleach is a chemical lightener. It works by removing the natural (or artificial) pigment from your hair, making it physically lighter.
•	Violet shampoo, on the other hand, is a toning product. It contains purple pigments that help neutralize yellow tones using color theory (purple cancels yellow). It doesn’t lighten — it only adjusts tone.⚠️ If your hair is too yellow or orange, violet shampoo can only do so much. It may mute the brassiness a bit, but it won’t give you that cool, icy blonde unless the base is light enough.✨ Bottom line:
If your hair is still too dark or yellow, you’ll need bleach or a professional lightening service to lift it lighter before violet shampoo can do its job effectively.🧴 Violet shampoo = maintenance & toning
💥 Bleach = actual lightening powerAlways consult a pro if you’re unsure where your hair is in the process! 💇‍♀️🎨#HairFacts

Our Fans

Favorite Quote: “The salon women choose when they don’t want their hair to look like it was cut in Ellijay.”

  • It took me two years of searching and several bad haircuts, until I finally found not one, but two hair stylists, that actually know what they are doing! I can’t say enough about Tim and Michelle! 
    VICKY HENSLEY
  • Absolutely love this place and everyone is so friendly. I had the same hair stylist for 11 years back down on Orlando. I moved up here and have been looking for someone, and I found Tim. 
    Stephanie Drake
  • Tai is truly an artist. I can’t say enough good things about Tai and her new space!! Tai has such an attention for detail and is truly an artist. My appointments are always both fun and relaxing. I can’t recommend this salon highly enough!
    Sara Enright
  • Just what you need for a day of pampering! Tori is an amazing stylist! Does great work with coloring my hair, cutting and styling. Was so excited to go into the salon. Very relaxing atmosphere and just what you need for a day of pampering.
    Angelia Samples
  • Absolutely loved this place! Everyone was super friendly. I have always been blonde and am turning gray and needed advice on color. Michelle was my stylist, she asks a lot of questions about what you’re wanting. 
    Sherie B
  • I cannot say enough great things about this salon. These girls are the best! They all are amazing. I love the products they use. It makes your hair feel so soft and looks so healthy. If you want a great hair style and color this is your place.
    Ashley Low
  • I absolutely love this salon and it’s staff! I always see Tori when I go here. I have also seen Colleen and Danielle and they were just as amazing! The products they use are another reason why I keep coming back. They are all organic and vegan and make my hair feel so healthy even months after my visits. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone who is looking!
    Stacey Siniard Young
  • I finally got to have my hair cut & colored by Masterful Artist, Tai, yesterday. What a treat to be in her beautiful new location. Every detail of the Salon shows Tai & Rusty’s creativity and eye for design & comfort. As always, I received an amazing cut & color but with the added bonus of touring the new salon with all its amenities and beautiful, peaceful massage & facial space!
    Susan A Ristau
  • Tai is the absolute best. No one has ever been able to color OR cut my hair exactly the way I want it until she started doing my hair. She is thorough, explanatory, and takes great pride in her work. I’ll never go anywhere else to have my hair done (unless I move far, far away)
    Ashley Freeman
  • I’ve been to many salons over the years. Being from a small town it’s sometimes difficult to find stylist that are up to date on today’s fashions. Art Works knocks it out of the park! Tai and team can and will take your hair, nails, and skin to the next level! The salon feels like you are in a big city salon with all the perks!
    Jennifer Ellington
  • The staff at Art Works Salon & Day Spa are dedicated professionals that you can trust. You know you’re stylist is good when you get compliments and comments on your hair every time you go somewhere. If you want to look your best, this is where you need to be. Tai and her staff are wonderful. They are knowledgeable and above all, honest.
    Donna Fox Gaddis
  • Art Works salon has a beautiful atmosphere that both welcomes and relaxes you when you walk in the door. Tai has been my stylist for years and is a master of color; I think we’ve covered all the colors in the rainbow! The whole staff is experienced and professional. Everyone is happy to see you, friendly, and helpful. There are several lines of luxury products for sale and a wide variety of services offered.
    Jodi Piercefield Day
  • PING, has the BEST facials and can put eye lash extensions on in a jiffy & make them look so perfect! 🤩 she got me hooked after trying them for just 3 weeks.

    I’ve been coming to see Tai and Ping for over 5 years! They are the BEST at what they do!
    Tonya Abercrombie
  • I could never go to anyone else! Art Works has been doing my hair since she started her journey! I usually give her creative freedom to do what she thinks would best suit me and I’ve never been disappointed, not to mention the hospitality and laughs she serves while she’s doing it.
