Jamison Shaw Hairdressers

who we are

Jamison Shaw Hairdressers is an award-winning, fifty-year-young, third-generation family owned and operated salon business in Atlanta, Georgia. We are a 5,000 square foot, 50 chair facility located in the heart of Buckhead. Our modern, spacious facility and friendly, courteous and well-trained staff make us uniquely suited to accommodate all of your beauty needs.

We are widely regarded as one of the world’s foremost authorities in the French cutting, balayage, and styling techniques. Owner Candy Shaw Americanized these revolutionary techniques and has instructed tens of thousands of hairdressers worldwide in their use. The French cutting technique focuses on soft, sexy, versatile, feminine looks. The client often stands for a portion of the cut so the hairdresser can properly frame their face. French finishing incorporates a round brush and blowdryer nozzle to create unparalleled shine.

Owner Candy Shaw, the daughter of former world-champion stylist Jamison Shaw, is widely recognized as the world’s foremost expert in balayage (the French term for “sweeping”) highlighting. Candy developed her own state-of-the-art balayage lightener and education-based product line, SUNLIGHTS® Balayage, to provide stylists world-wide with everything they need to learn and do balayage. SUNLIGHTS® is the lightener of choice of our incredibly talented team of stylists, regarded throughout the hairdressing world as the Balayage Experts.
