The Parlor by Audra — Local services in Columbus

I’ve been going to Audra exclusively for 15 years; even when I lived in Florida for three of those years, I would fly back here to have her do my hair. I am horribly indecisive about what I want to do with my hair, but she always makes great suggestions, and I’m never nervous about how it’s going to turn out. She’s also very skilled in several types of hair - my hair is pretty thin and doesn’t have tons of volume. My best friend has thick, curly hair which some stylists have trouble with. I suggested Audra to her while she was looking for someone because she couldn’t find someone to cut her hair well. Audra handles both of our hair types beautifully. This space of hers is amazing! It’s eclectic, yet warm and welcoming. On top of all of that, I love how personable Audra is, and she loves knowing her clients. Not only do I get my hair cut, but she cuts my middle school aged son’s hair as well. When he is in her chair, she is talking to him about things he likes and enjoys - and not just “how’s school, what grade are you going into” etc, but actually engaging with him. As a mom, that’s heartwarming to see, but I think it’s also a testament to how much Audra enjoys what she does and really knowing...

I humbled myself, quickly, with shears to my own head. But, with the way my trust is set up, I haven’t had a stylist in YEARS! The stars aligned when I randomly met Audra and booked IMMEDIATELY with her based on her appearance and vibe alone! I’m so so happy I did! As a may Gemini I have 2 modes: quiet af if my soul doesn’t fw you, or lose all ability to stfu if my soul vibes! GIRL, I couldn’t stfu 🤦🏻‍♀️ we talked and talked and laughed as she did her thing. When she swung me around at the end for the final reveal, my mind had to buffer for a second, I couldn’t believe the magic she worked on my self induced hack job! Omfg SHE DID IT! I’m ABSOLUTELY in love with my hair and confidence is back up to 1000. Her salon is aesthetically pleasing with fun touches all over, clean, and smells great! Literally not a single negative observation. I found my hair home! Can’t wait to...

Audra is a phenomenal stylist who has been coloring my hair for YEARS! She took on the tedious task of taking my split dye from black and red to platinum blonde. All while maintaining the health and integrity of my hair. I love all of the products she uses and retails in her space!

She's well educated and up to date on techniques and it shows. I'm in love with her space and it's such a cool place to get your hair done. You will never want to leave. She will also make you laugh...
