I had my first time coming to get my hair cut here. I had Christine as my hairdresser. She was great! She listened to what I wanted and gave me a cute stylish cut. I also got a complimentary 2 minute facial. It was so nice and relaxing. I have never heard of any other salons that do that. It was so nice. This place is really a treat to come to. The place is really big. They have different floors depending on what your getting done. I definitely will be back again to get my hair cut again but I may have to come back sooner for a massage! read more

I love the massages I get there. If you go often they arrange a standing reservation for you to always have your spot with your favorite person. They always offer a drink before and after, and hydration is very important to skin recovery. read more

Jeffrey did a fabulous job on my cut and style. Everything about the experience - from check in to check out - was relaxing and the vibes were chefs kiss! read more

This is a beautiful salon but I can't even review what it's like to get a service here because the staff has made the new client process impossible. I lived in Chicago for nearly two decades and have been to high-end salons many times, none of them have been so self-interested and patronizing as the experience has been at Square Salon Centerville. First, I called several months ago to try to book with a senior stylist. I had just moved and was way behind on a haircut and color and needed something done ASAP. I was told I'd have to come in for a consultation first and that it might be months before I could get into get my hair done. I asked if it was possible to bypass this step, was told no. I told them I guess I'd have to go elsewhere and they didn't seem to care about losing the business. I still wanted to try so I called for a consultation when I had more time. To be honest, my hair color needs are pretty simple and I've only recently started dying my hair to cover grays. I brought a picture of my natural color (which is the closest thing to communicate what my ideal color would be.) Since the last color I had was darker, it was explained to me that it would be a huge process to go lighter again, so I was quoted a starting price of $450. The whole consultation process was such a frustration because as a person who isn't super experienced I don't even know what to ask for. Rather than being guided toward a reasonable process or something else that would work and look good, I felt the conversation steered heavily toward an expensive and (in my opinion) unnecessary process to achieve what I didn't know I was even asking for. The stylist was nice, so no issues there, but mentioned that she books really far out and rarely gets new clients. She mentioned that she wouldn't be upset if I picked a different stylist. I ended up making an appointment for a workday afternoon but now have to cancel because I'm not able to take the time off work due to a project. All in all, I'm not sure I've ever encountered a business that made me feel so undervalued as a customer. My fiancé, who has been completely flummoxed watching me try to make an appointment here, summed it up best: "I don't know why you want to go there, they clearly care more about themselves than they do about their customers." I'm done giving this place a shot because it turned something that is supposed to make you feel good into a burden and a frustration. read more

I was part of a bridal party and had the pleasure of having my hair and makeup done by this amazing team of ladies. From day one when the bride and I went in just to ask questions, leading up until the wedding day this team was SO ACCOMMODATING! Beautiful and clean salon, the vibe was there, professional and polite. I would love to list all the ladies but I would feel bad if I left anyone out. But to those that worked on the bridal team on May 17th, 2025 you know who you are. We adore and thank you all TREMENDOUSLY!!!!!! Thanks a million!!! Highly recommend read more

Square One Salon & Spa - Curtain bangs and framing layers - Hair Salons Near Me - Centerville, Ohio

Salon One in Centerville completely messed my son's hair up. We have gone to this salon for years, his normal hairdresser is on vacation so we went with someone she recommended especially since he has really dense hair and it can be difficult to cut. The person that was supposed to cut his hair was late so they asked him if it was okay for this girl to cut his hair. This lady was a nightmare and new at the Salon. it was clear to my son she didn't know what she was doing because another hairdresser had to come up and help her, explaining that he had dense hair, where she went wrong and how to fix what she had done. It clearly was not fixed! He literally looks like he has a ducks tail in the back of his head. They charged him $40 for a horrible haircut, they never showed him the back of it with the mirror and I know why...This is absolutely unacceptable. When I called they actually had enough nerve to say well he said it was okay, not sorry about his hair being fkd up or for hiring people who do not know what they are doing, then offered to have him come back in...NO He will not come back in and have them mess his hair up even more. read more

Square One Salon in Centerville is a welcoming place with just the right atmosphere and professionalism. From when you walk in the door to your last service, all is wonderful. Lori does a superb job for my manicure and pedicure. Lauren was sweet and gave me a great haircut and style. And I can't say enough about Sandra K. I have been receiving facials from her for several years now and every time they are fantastic. Not only is her service great but she is so kind and personable. I highly recommend her. read more

Taylor blew out my daughter's hair and she said she did an amazing job!she also said great vibe and good design

I used to go to Square One to have my hair done, and knew they did nails. So I scheduled an appointment for 11:00 am for a pedicure. When I made the appointment I was told to wait in my car and I would receive a text when they were ready for me. I asked if I needed to let them know I was there since they couldn't physically see me & was told no. I arrived 10 minutes early and dutifully sat in my car. At 11:00 I turned to my texts and waited. And waited. 11:05, 11:08, 11:10, no text/call. Now I do appreciate how things have changed due to Covid. I am in the service field myself. But if you are going to be over 5 minutes late, you should notify the client. At 15 after, I called and, without asking my name, was told my tech was running behind. At 18 after I called again and was told they had called, probably while I was talking to them, and had left a message. But no text. The saving grace was that the nail technician was great. Worth the wait, kind of. I definitely will book with her again. The prices are terrific. However, it would still have been nice to have gotten a call to say they were running late. Since I was sitting in my car it felt as though I had been forgotten. read more

I went here for an hour long facial. It was fabulous! The room was relaxing; the girl who gave me the facial was professional & did a wonderful job! I would definitely recommend this spa to people. The only cons were it was kind of expensive, $92. Also, some of the staff at the front desk seemed a little snooty! read more

I had a great experience at Square One in Centerville. There is dedicated parking right behind the shop for clients. My hairstylist was Taylor and she was so great! She did a wonderful job of giving me the hair cut and style that I wanted and I felt like she took her time. She was so kind and fun to talk to. Each stylist has a different rate and times they work, so it is helpful to schedule to come in when convenient for you. Can't wait to come back again soon! read more

I saw Karessa for a cut and color. She did better than what I could've asked for and I'm obsessed with my new hairstyle! She's careful and won't stop until you're completely satisfied with your look, book with her !! From start to finish the salon is top notch in service. They know how to create an experience and it's definitely the small details & quality staff that makes you feel relaxed and pampered! I had water, that amazing aveda tea, a hand massage and mini facial. The salon was immaculate and cozy as well. Overall I'd spend my time and money here any day. read more

Square One Salon & Spa - Bangs and face framing layers - Hair Salons Near Me - Centerville, Ohio

I booked an appointment a month before my birthday/vacation to treat myself to something nice for my birthday. I told the receptionist "ombré & cut" but when I arrived the stylist told me "you were booked for color so I won't have time to do your cut." Kind of annoying but no big deal. I tell her in great detail exactly what I want. I show her several pictures. We seem to be on the same page. She tells me I'll need to be charged for 3 different colors. I'm confused but okay...this is my treat to myself, I'm willing to shell out the extra money to get what I want. She brings in an assistant to help her speed up the process. (Because I was booked incorrectly for color and not ombré) The student/assistant is applying color to the bottom half of my hair and the stylist I booked is applying color to the top. I later realize the student/assistant is only applying color and no ombré will be done to the bottom half of my head. Hours later while I'm processing she tells me the "good news"...her next client cancelled so she can cut my hair. I only realized later why knowing the cut the client wants prior to placing the color is pretty important. I told her "just a trim" but somehow it was easily 3-4 inches. There is so much more about this service that was a nightmare but honestly the pictures speak for themselves. I paid over $200 to make my hair look the worst it's ever been. I sent the salon pictures and asked for a refund. They told me I needed to come back to the salon so they could "learn what they did wrong". I told them that wasn't an option because I was leaving for vacation and frankly it's not my job to teach them...that's what they went to school for. The only positive thing I can say is that the stylist was pleasant. read more

I had the best dip manicure ever from Mandy today! She was so patient soaking off a previous dip pedicure from a different salon that was comically thick. Her dip manicure was even and the perfect thickness that it looks like they're my actual nails! If you're looking for dip, this should be your first and only stop. Make sure I book 2-3 weeks in advance, they book up quick! read more

Just got a great haircut from Abby! She listened to exactly what I asked for and really took her time to do it right. She is a very talented, friendly and kind stylist - and Square One is a lovely, clean and peaceful space. I highly recommend!! read more

My daughter went in a normal blonde with brown roots and shinny hair. She came out a female Draco Malfoy, except her hair is much more damaged now than his. She saw Kelly at Centerville. She took a pic, which had several shades blended and came out looking like she had put a yellow/white wig on that was made of cotton balls. You could see breakage and her style that was done was not even able to be seen since it was all one very bright yellow/white. To say it was shocking is an understatement. That is not even the bad part. Mistakes happen. This was a big one and will take a very long time to recover from in terms of the damage, but it happens. We have all had a color go awry. What we all have not had, is when we go back to the salon to ask for a correction, to be told, after a consult, that it looked like what my daughter asked for and that some hair takes platinum color more harshly than others. When I questioned all of this, i was finally told they had products my daughter could use and she should avoid all heat on her hair for at least a month. While deep conditioning and that they could also deep condition it but it would take several months of treatments. Oh! or they could cut it short. Presumably to mitigate the impending breakage that was going to occur. When I asked if this would be comped, I was told it would be discounted. At the end of the entire thing, I was told a Manager and Owner would call me the following day. I canceled my upcoming appointment, and drove straight to Salon Dimitri where Abbie assisted us by suggesting the products she thought would help to lesson the damage and told me to text her the following day so she could see a pic and determine if she needed to do more in the salon. Suffice it to say, my family of four who have gone to Square One for years, will no longer be a customer. No apology, acknowledgement that something clearly went awry and very little compassion for my 18 year old daughter who has to live with this, without even being able to dry and style her hair for who knows how long. A bad color can be forgiven, bad customer service cannot. I would skip this salon and try Salon Dimitri. Ask for Abbie. You won't regret it. PS. No pic because no one should have a photo of this out there, but Draco is close. His is much healthier but the color and brittle look are similar. The color is almost exact when you look at the ones that are platinum/yellow without dimension. Not a good luck. Ever. read more

After two bad haircuts I will not return. Manager does not respond to call. Previous stylist there knew how to cut hair but haven't found anyone else to replace him. read more

Not a great place to get a peaceful, relaxing massage. Unfortunately this place is right on a very busy intersection, and you can hear every car and truck drive by. Massage therapist was just ok. Didn't have strength to give a good, deep massage even though that is what I asked for. Very underwhelming experience, sadly. Likely will not be going back. read more

Amazing stylists but terrible customer service. I eventually had to give up on them.

Finally the appropriate window treatments in the couples massage room!! In addition to my previous review, a +1 star for the appropriate decor. Huzzah! Great service, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and now a great decor. Way to go Square One! You are my go to place for hair and massage. read more

This is my emergency hair salon. Meaning, I have a regular salon I visit in Cincinnati and have a friend cut my hair but she is incredible and sometimes I can't wait to get on her book. In cases like that I go here. It's a great location in an old renovated house on main in Centerville. It's a full service salon with a spa upstairs. They even accommodate walk ins. I have had several different stylist here Nd all of them are very well trained and professional. I am never disappointed with my visits here. read more

This salon is fantastic! I was treated extremely well and made to feel quite welcome and comfortable. My stylist, Taylor, was so kind and very skilled. She actually listened to what my wants and issues were and created the perfect solution! I WILL be her client from now on!! read more

I can only speak for the nail services at this salon; I haven't had a hair service here. But I must say, they do some awesome manicures at this location. I would tell you to ask for Carrie because she rocks but I want to keep her appointments to myself! She always has fun ideas and makes sure your nails look like a million bucks before you leave. The salon is in an awesome, central location and the interior is beautiful. read more

Square One Salon & Spa - My gel mani with a little sparkle on top :) - Hair Salons Near Me - Centerville, Ohio

Let me start by saying I have very long, thick hair with wave/curl. It's so hard to find a stylist that 1. Doesn't complain when they have to blow dry it (it's a workout) 2. Can handle the mess of hair I have 3. Thin it out without having a whack job Had an appt with Jennifer today and she was a trooper and totally rocked it! Thank you! read more

Had a couples massage here a while back and it was amazing!! My bf had gotten a massage from Kim previously and really enjoyed it, so we decided to do a couples one. Kim massaged him and I had Dorian. Both were great. This was my first ever massage and I had a really positive experience. I should also add we called and got in on the same day. Not saying they're always available that way, but it was awesome they could accommodate us this time! read more

Rush thru brow wax. It was awful when got outside in the natural light. Will stick with benefit brow bar in the future

I had a massage with Kay. She is fantastic - best massage I've ever gotten! She listened to me prior to starting, focused on my problem areas and applied healing and relaxation techniques. If I lived in Dayton I would be regularly visiting Kay. For now I'll see her when I'm in town. Salon itself looked nice. Staff was friendly. Spa area was nice. Several essential oils to choose from for your massage. Overall great experience, but Kay is truly talented! read more

I have been here a few times and each time got very good service from both the staff and stylists. It's a beautiful salon, the only reason I am giving it three stars is because 1) It is very busy and noisy, not as relaxing an atmosphere as I prefer 2) The Stylists are generally working on another client while doing your hair, thus taking a bit longer than it should. Not a big fan of that. 3) It's very expensive. I only got a partial foil and cut this last time, and it was $108. read more

My first time here, just moved into the area. Very nice experience. From the scalp massage, mini facial, both complimentary, and great hair cut. Easy to rate it 5 STAR! read more

Leslie gave me the best hair cut I've had in a long time!

I wanted to love you Square One and for a brief moment I really did! My hairdresser of many years at another salon hit a bad patch in her personal life, got distracted and unfocused, and after years of wonderful cuts, the last several could be summed up as a bad "The Rachel" cut. As someone who has learned her thick, wavy hair needs its long layers this was quite a bad hair time - and it took a LONG time and a lot of hair loss to reverse this look. I finally decided to go to Square One late last year to find a fix and new stylist. Jennifer did a fabulous job. Unfortunately, she then went on maternity leave and so I had to find another stylist in the interim. Tonight, the one I selected gave me..."The Rachel". I agreed to have 1/2 to 1" trimmed off my hair only to go home to style it in my normal curly fashion to realize I lost 2-3" from the top layer and now had a very thinned out bottom layer and very short, heavy top layer. I was specific that I keep my hair in long layers that are always curled. Stylists-when you have a new client always err on the side of caution and cut less not more. I can't glue my hair back on when you go rogue. read more

BUYER BEWARE Typical bait and switch. The salon is nice and the people are friendly, but make sure to ask about how much the person they assign you charges for a cut. I normally get men's haircuts at Square One for ~$25 (reasonable), but I recently went in and was charged a whopping $39+tip for a men's cut. The studio's explanation for the price hike was because the stylist was considered "elite". I just called and showed up for a men's cut - certainly did not ask for the most expensive men's cut in Ohio. I got no sympathy from the woman handling payments. Left feeling like I'd been shaken down. read more

Love, love, love the massages here! The only drawbacks are having to schedule 2 months in advance for an appointment (- 0.5 star) and the street NOISE (sirens, motorcycles, etc). that makes for less than a relaxing experience. It would be nice if they would install thicker windows to buffer the sound. read more

I love this salon! It's amazing my stylist always does an amazing job! The environment is welcoming.

It has now been one month since I first went here. My hair still looks great but I am going out to dinner at a nice place in Columbus tomorrow for a special occasion so yesterday, I made a last minute decision to get my hair trimmed. Lacey, the stylist I had last time does not work on Fridays so Serene had an opening. She started with a scalp massage which felt amazing and got I another one during the shampoo and conditioning. The cut and style looked amazing when she was finished. Continuing to love this place. read more

I started going here after my stylist in Cincinnati moved to Colorado. My hair is always cut beautifully when I leave. Stylists are very well trained and friendly read more

I loved the hairstylist and the mini facial and head massage everything was awesome going back for color :)

I had a 90 minute massage with Katie and it was fantastic. She gave me a full-body massage with concentrations on the glutes and hamstrings and I feel great. I'll definitely go back and highly recommend her and the salon in general. read more
