About Icie Rivers at Hemlock Salon & Apothecary
Icie Rivers is a hairstylist at Hemlock Salon & Apothecary in Atlanta, offering services centered on lived-in balayage, color correction, Magic Sleek keratin treatments, and curly hair styling. A New York native, Icie brings 13 years of experience in the beauty industry to her chair. She traces her passion for hair back to childhood, when she practiced with safety scissors and gave bang trims to neighbors long before she ever set foot in cosmetology school. After completing her formal training, she apprenticed under influential stylists in both New York and Los Angeles, sharpening her technical skills, elevating her client service standards, and studying hair science in depth - a foundation that shows in the range of specialized services she now offers. Icie's approach to her craft is deeply collaborative. Her guiding motto, "come in dressed for the hair you want, not the hair you have," reflects a philosophy built around helping clients see and reach for the results they actually want, rather than settling for what they think is possible. She works with clients who arrive with a clear vision as well as those who need guidance exploring their options, aiming to create transformations that feel authentically personal rather than generic. Clients consistently describe her as skilled at translating vague or uncertain direction into a finished look that exceeds expectations, and several reviews specifically credit her with helping anxious first-time salon-goers leave feeling excited rather than nervous. Her explanations of technical processes, particularly the Magic Sleek keratin treatment and its effects on curly and textured hair, are frequently highlighted by clients as thorough and reassuring. Icie is currently accepting new clients, though consultations are required in advance for creative color work, extensions, color correction, and keratin treatments, ensuring she can plan the right approach for each person's hair. Hemlock Salon & Apothecary and Icie Rivers are recognized as a Black-owned business by BuyBlack.org, a curated online directory of Black-owned businesses.
