from N.Y.C. Linda was inspired in the early 70’s by
Vidal Sassoon, one of the greatest pioneers in the Hair Design

Linda love’s to hear when people stop her clients on

you look great”.

to appreciate the needs & desires of all who walk through
‘ Nuance Salon’. She enjoys spoiling the clients
as well as her entire staff with a comfortable environment.
Linda has been able to create a high tech salon yet maintain
all of the warmth & comfort that you will need during
your services.

Justin
Willis
justin@nuancesalon.net
Master
Stylist
|
| Starting
with Vidal Sassoon in 1971 as an assistant, Justin assisted
for 15 months then started as a stylist cutting such people
as Mary Quant, Vanessa Redgrave, & Julie Christie to name
a few. In 1978 Justin was transferred to Atlanta, GA to open
the first Sassoon Salon. After 3 months in GA, preparing most
of the models for opening shows, Justin was again transferred
to San Francisco where he became Art Director on shows like
Good Morning America / San Francisco, working alongside Vidal
himself. After 3 years in California, Justin decided to return
to Atlanta. Inspired by the growth of the city & the desire
to bring creative hair-cutting to the south, Justin opened
his first salon called “Blades” in 1980 located
in the heart of Buckhead, followed by a second “Blades”
a few years later in Roswell. In 1996, Justin sold “Blades”
and then opened “Salon Solo”.
Justin
feels that working for Vidal Sassoon was the best 10 years
of his life. It has been an honor to have worked with the
likes of Trevor Sorbie, Christopher Brooker, Carolyn Hayes
& many incredibly gifted, talented, beautiful people.
These wonderful memories will be with him always.

from Wisconsin, I moved to Gainesville, Florida, where I received
my cosmetology license in 1985. I stayed in Gainesville for
4 years and worked at Ian and Company; a popular college salon.

Linda
Sinclair and I met in a well known, East Cobb Hair Salon about
10 years ago and have worked together ever since. I joined
Linda at Nuance Salon about 5 weeks after she had opened.
I am very excited to be a part of the Nuance Salon styling
team. The Historic Roswell Square is a very appealing location
to work.
Specializing
in hair color and highlighting, I have been using the Schwartzkopf
color line for several years. I enjoy creating formal hairstyles
for weddings, proms and special occasions. Living just 5 minutes

Jonathan
Master
Stylist

Jonathan
Charles moved to the Atlanta area in 2001 from Denver, Colorado,
bringing with him a wide array of experience with 20 years+
in the beauty industry.
His career
started out in 1986 after completing an apprenticeship with
the well respected Gene Juarez Salons in Seattle, Washington,
where he worked for the next five years building his skills
both behind the chair and assisting the salon's artistic team.
In 1991,
his move to Denver brought many new opportunities and exposure
to more advanced education and new philosophies. Valuable
experience as both an Aveda educator and a Toni & Guy
ambassador only broadened his experience and thirst for knowledge
which lead him to several studies at Vidal Sassoon in both
Toronto and Los Angeles.
In 2001,
Jonathan with his wife and daughter, moved to Atlanta to raise
their daughter near family. His first three years in Atlanta
were spent in Buckhead, working for color expert, Michael
Burton, in his salon. Working with Michael was truly a blessed
experience. His eye for color transformed and advanced Jonathan's
color skills ten fold. My hat's off to Michael Burton, a true
artist.
Jonathan
now enjoys working with a terrific group of artists at Nuance
Salon. Each offering an amazing array of talent that he can
learn from.
Outside
the Salon, Jonathan enjoys art, music, friends and good food.
Most importantly, traveling with his wife, Lori, and daughter,
Ali, exposing her to the wonders of the world. |
