Experience Roswell’s Soda Salon

I don’t know how many times I have driven by Soda Salon and didn’t realize it!  It’s nestled in next to J. Christopher’s Public House, appropriately blending in with Roswell’s historic architecture.  Upon entering the shop, you’ll see that it’s not your typical salon.  Sure to be greeted with a friendly smile, you’ll be immediately impressed by the salon owners’ ability to successfully maintain the integrity of Historic Roswell.

Services for the salon have five separate pricing levels ranging from $35 to $90 for a cut.  Other services offered by the salon include coloring and highlights, hair extensions, perms, straighteners, waxing, lash extensions and make-up applications.  

It’s Good To Be Green Roswell!

The City of Roswell has recently been certified under the Atlanta Regional Commission’s (ARC) Green Communities Program on the Silver Level. Roswell is the first Atlanta area community to be certified Silver.

ARC launched the Green Communities Program last year to help in environmental management by recognizing local governments that invest in programs leading to a stronger Atlanta region. ARC’s Green Communities program is the only program in the United States that seeks to transform a region by promoting sustainability through a “green” certification program for local governments.

Some of the programs’s highlights and how it benefits Roswell as a whole, include:
