Tom, the owner has done my hair for 30+ years and I love the way my hair looks every time I have my hair done. I wish I could see him more! I love the color and cut each time and it's a relaxing vibe. read more

I have been going to Tom Hardcastle, the owner of Delilah, for over twenty years, when he was in Montecito. He is undoubtedly the most talented hairdresser I have ever encountered. Not only is he a true artist when it comes to finding the perfect color, but also an expert with cut and style. When I leave his salon, I feel truly "transformed!" He keeps abreast of the current hairstyling trends and also offers excellent hair products at his salon. Tom is personable , professional and entertaining. And I would be remiss if I didn't mention that his prices are quite reasonable...particularly for the level of expertise that Tom offers his clients! He is well worth the 45 minute drive that I make for my appointments...I will drive to his salon always!!! read more

Let me just say it: Tom Hardcastle is a hair wizard. Every two months he takes my gray roots and turns them into pure sunshine. I lived in Beverly Hills for a few years, and not one colorist there came close to what Tom does--and he does it without handing me a bill that makes my eye twitch. He's smart and very funny, he's authentic, he's wildly talented, and he actually listens. Then he gives me exactly what I want for a price that's always more than fair. No drama, no surprise charges, no salon attitude. Delilah Salon has all the convenience and expertise of a big-city spot, but with the soul, warmth, and "everyone knows your name" charm of Ojai. If you want fabulous hair without the Beverly Hills price: go to Tom. read more

Tom is an amazing artist as well as a skilled, professional stylist! He is courteous and friendly consistently. I highly recommend Delilah!

I've been having Tom color, cut, and style my hair for over 30 yrs. He is a color and styling genius! Tom is super kind,funny and so talented in oh so many ways. I love going to Delilah and highly recommend Tom. read more

I have been going to this salon for 15+ years. The owner is professional, consistent and committed to me and all his customers. The salon is clean, stylishly decorated with fine pieces of artwork and a relaxing environment. Highly recommend. read more

Love this place. The staff is amazing and the quality of their work is outstanding. I have neighbors who go there for color but I only get my hair cut there. read more

Great stylists, nice vibe, beautiful salon. Have been with 3 different stylists over a period of time, and don't plan to change a good thing. read more

This spot is a gem! I'm happy with my excellent color & cut by Lynsey. I highly recommend this hair salon & stylists, they will not disappoint. read more

I have been a client of Chris's for nearly 6 years and she is wonderful! Each time I see her, she takes the time to thoroughly evaluate the condition of my hair whether it's dry or flaky and uses a formulated treatment to remedy the health of my scalp and hair follicles. I really appreciate her patience and overall demeanor since my hair has many challenges especially during the COVID-19 shelter in place order. When I went in to see Chris recently, she spent an immense amount of time with my graduated hair cut and she uses her scissors with such precision and gives the best scalp massage while conditioning my hair. I would recommend her to anyone! read more

I visited Ojai for a friends wedding and last minute decided to get my hair done. This salon was able to fit me in with very little notice. Lindsay did an excellent job on my updo! I highly recommend this salon! If you're not familiar with the area make sure you call to ask where it is located because it can be a bit tricky to find. read more

I've been getting my haircut at Delilah for almost 10 years. Everyone that works here is fantastic. My favorite salon in town. Thanks.

April 11th, I had the most amazing experience here visiting from NYC. With a bad color job (see other review on tiger stripes :)) I walked in to gauge the vibe and prices. The girl working practically read my mind, or my hair rather and it was clear she knew exactly what I was displeased with and how to fix it. I got her card and returned a few hours later. What I left with was one of the finest low light/highlight and tone jobs I've ever had and at a price that would be WORTH flying out from NYC every 8 weeks for. I kid you not. I have been getting highlights for more years than I'd like to admit and I'm back in Brooklyn dreaming of this place. read more

Five stars, so far. First great cut since moving to Ojai. Thank you Chris Monday. I shall return.

I've been going to Delilah for a few years now and there's nowhere else i'd rather go. Before I started seeing Lindsey my hair was a disaster, super choppy, I had thick bangs that I really wanted to grow out with the rest of my long hair. Lindsey helped me grow out my hair all to one length, and she has helped with keeping my hair thick, long and beautiful. Lindsey is hands down THE BEST, and I highly recommend her! read more

I went to Delilah for the first time to have my hair styled by Liz for my wedding. Side note, my husband has been going to her for cuts for years and is loyal for a reason! I was so impressed with Liz, she is so nice and her hands are magic. She created a beautiful waterfall braid for my wedding. I started by sending in a few photos of what I wanted to do and when I came in for my trial session (which I recommend doing because it can help you get clear about what you want) Liz had actually already tried the style with a wig on a hair dummy and showed me what she was planning on doing. She took direction really well when I realized after the trial session that I wanted the cascading hair to look even less curled and more natural and I was so impressed by how the style was fluid and I could tell her to pull something tighter or loosen it up. She genuinely wanted to make it perfect for me for the wedding and that means so much! read more

I was visiting my mom for an extended time and really needed my roots touched up. My friend goes here and highly recommended it. I saw Kris a recent addition to the shop. She was able to see me with short notice. She did an awesome job and was very kind and thorough. If I lived here I would make it my permanent salon!! read more

I've been going to Liz at the salon for years. She is very consistent with her color and cuts and is incredibly flexible with her schedule. She is truly an Ojai gem. read more

The owner Tom is a crack up! He's a total character and makes the appointments fun! I've seen lots of his work and the other two female hair stylist work and they're great! Been going there for years now. read more

I have known Tom Hardcastle for quite a few years. Not only has he done an amazing job styling my hair, since I moved he has continued to provide great service for my mom who lives locally. He makes it easy to purchase a GC from thousands of miles away for her. I personally would recommend Tom Hardcastle. (I am sure the rest of the staff is just as qualified) read more

Delilah's is the best kept secrete in Ojai. Ask for Chris Monday if you want the perfect cut and color! She's amazing! You won't be disappointed! read more

I've been going to Liz for a couple months now and she is amazing. Always really listens to what I want done with my hair without letting me do anything stupid. I love her styles and she provides great customer service! read more

I've been going to Liz for a long time now and I still love when it is the day of my appointment. Liz always does a great job with my hair and she's always got great ideas for what to do to change it up a bit. I leave the salon with a great cut & color every time. read more

We came in at the last minute for a haircut for our daughter. They were fast, courteous and did a great cut. 100% recommend!

I've been trying out salons in ventura county area trying to find a place that would give me a high-end haircut for a fairly reasonable price. Tom, the owner greeted me and let me know that he had trained the girls that worked there himself and guaranteed i'd be happy with the cut. Liz White cut my hair and I was more than satisfied. She really took her time and made sure it was cut the way we had talked about. With other haircuts I've been annoyed by stylists telling me the haircut is finished only to come home and find random long hairs when I come home leaving me very dissatisfied. That was not the case with this haircut. I will definitley be back. If your looking for a good cut check them out! read more

Liz White is soooo good. Have been her customer for almost a year. Her styling abilities are great. Am always happy with the results and she recommends the best hair products. So happy to have her here in Ojai. read more

I love all of the folks at Delilah. Tom (the owner), Lindsey, and Liz White. Liz is now my family's stylist. I saw Liz as a walk-in and she did great. So great, that I returned, again and again. Then I told my teen daughter about her and brought her in to see Liz. My daughter has very specific ways she likes her hair done because of Japanese Manga's that she reads. Liz is patient with her and pretty much does exactly what she wants. Well, it didn't stop there. My husband's stylist was inconsistent with appointments and cuts so he decided to go see Liz. He won't go anywhere else now. Then my teen son decided to visit this "Liz" we have all been raving about. He is very picky with his hair, but Liz did an outstanding job, and needless to say, no one else will do now! It is always worth the drive from Ventura to Ojai to Delilah's Hair Salon. read more

Tom Hardcastle and his staff are, quite simply, the best. I've been going to Delilah for years... they are absolutely the best in town (or anywhere else). read more

i had scheduled a hair appointment with liz for the day of my best friends' wedding. at 10am that saturday morning, i received a msg from lindsey telling me that liz was really sick and would not be able to do my session at 1pm. which i completely understand. but then she proceeded to say that it looks like no one else in the salon has time today and liz told her it was for a wedding, so she apologized and said that she hoped i could find somewhere else. SERIOUSLY?! 3 hours notice? when i am in town for a wedding that i am helping to orchestrate ??? - there was a reason i had made my plans in advance - as i had NO extra time to figure it out on the DAY OF the wedding! i would have expected that if no one was available at the salon that they would have called another colleague to honor their commitment, especially since they knew it was for a wedding! i am very disappointed in their lack of service support especially after having chosen them above all others based on the rave reviews they had received on yelp. i would not book with them again, and will be sure to share this with all my local family, friends and acquaintances. read more
