Four chairs, five artists, natural light, and the kind of playlist you actually want to hear. Color specialists, bespoke cuts, and a spa room that smells like jasmine. Come slow down here.
Every artist at Cedar & Thread has 6+ years of experience, their own chair, and a client list they've built by being good. No rotating apprentices. You pick your artist and stay with them.

Opened the salon in 2018. Specialty in lived-in balayage and warm blondes. Known for saving botched color jobs.

Eight years cutting in Nashville, LA, and NYC. Specialty in precision cuts, curtain bangs, and curly cuts.

Our dedicated textured-hair specialist. Deva-method certified. Natural curl cutting, silk presses, and deep conditioning.

Our in-house esthetician. Corrective facials, lash lifts, brows. Built a loyal following of people who swear their skin has never been better.

Tired of fluorescent lighting. Tired of salons that rushed you out. Tired of stylists who talked through your cut instead of listening.
In 2018 we took a lease on an old florist's shop on Gallatin Ave, pulled out the drop ceiling, poured new concrete floors, and built four chairs with linen curtains between them. We added a spa room in the back that smells like jasmine. We hired artists we trusted and let them build their books.
Seven years later, we're still small, still quiet, and still booked six weeks out. We're proud of that.
If you've had a bad salon experience, or just a rushed one, come see us. You'll leave feeling heard.
Just the color and cut work that made us the happiest this month. Follow us on Instagram for daily updates.




Rae listened to what I actually wanted instead of telling me what she thought would look good. First time in a decade I walked out loving my hair.
Iman is the only person in Nashville who has ever cut my curly hair correctly. Driving 45 minutes to see her and will continue forever.
The spa room alone is worth the trip. Lena is an artist. I get a facial the day before my kids' birthdays just to survive the party.
