I was in this area when I was in desperate need of a manicure (after another salon had really…read moremessed mine up). My nails weren't particularly healthy. I found Orenda Salon on the Vagaro app and was able to self-book an appointment for the next day. Orenda is located attached to Beanie's Laundromat but is NOT inside in the laundromat. The inside is so attractive and subtle, with a cool black-and-white checkered floor, tons of plants and the cutest bar cart I've ever seen. I really appreciated that they are still taking COVID protocol seriously, including wearing a mask properly, and that I was the only person in the salon being serviced when I visited. Very clean salon, local and woman-owned, and super easy to get an appointment on Vagaro. Check this salon out!

I just had what was probably the single worst haircut I have ever received in my lift at your…read moreOberlin, OH location from a stylist named Elain. I asked for a ball fade and just a trim on top to keep the length. What I received is terrible. The "fade" performed does not even qualify as such. There is no blend. A hard line. Patches of hair far longer than others. I have a job that requires me to look professional and well kempt at all times. I can not show my face at my job looking like a child who attempted to cut his own hair. So I am going to find a better place to go and get my hair cut and have them attempt fix this mess and am going to have to PAY even more for it. What makes this even more infuriating is the fact that I have had my hair cut by Elain before a number of times and she has never done this before. I had to ask her to try and fix my head three separate times before giving up. She was clearly trying to rush the job. Why should I have to ask for a blend when I requested a fade? A fade is the blending of hair! Safe to say I will not be returning to Great Clips in the near future at all. I still tipped well, and consider that my farewell.

I can't believe no one has left a review for this place yet. I just got my hair cut there; Joseph…read morewas my excellent stylist. He explained the structural elements of the hair style I wanted both when I showed him the picture of it and as he was cutting my hair. His explanation went beyond the typical "I'm doing this to add texture." He actually used cosmetological terms and explained what they meant. On top of that, he's a warm and personable guy who makes sitting in a chair for 45 minutes a pleasure. As a former Oberlin College student who's about to move away, I'm quite sad that I'm only now discovering this place. I highly recommend it!

The Velvet Turtle is a great place! They have done a…read morewonderful job on my hair. Jessica was my stylist. I highly recommend her because she is young and sassy and we had a hilarious conversation while she was doing my hair. She put in highlights with foil and it looked fabulous afterwards. It looked totally natural, not big zebra stripes (although I am sure that she could do that, too, if you prefer that kind) and there was no color bleeding at the base of the foils because she has great technique and knows what she's doing! Velvet Turtle also gets a nice mix of folks--some profs, some students (it is very close to a college campus) college support staff, some senior citizens from Kendall, cool hipsters, kids, parents--all kinds of clients. Every time I have gone there, there has been good atmosphere with nice conversation. You can tell that all the stylists care about their clients.

I told him I wanted about 3 years of damage cut off and I was prepared to lose several inches of length and he cut less than 1. The hair color application was super sloppy - I do way better when I dye it at home! The cost was cheap, but I would happily have paid more for a better result. I had to immediately run home and try to wash the dye from my neck and face and the steam from the shower made the color run everywhere like Rudy Giuliani that one time. I'm no expert but I don't think that's supposed to happen with a professional job.... super bummed out. Sorry guys - I love to love a local business but I can't this time. Update : I ended up washing my whole head because it was staining everything. Now my whole scalp and fingernails are stained blue. Changing review to one star because I didn't go to a salon to meet a nice person - I went to get a good haircut and color.
