Ou Salon — Local services in Philadelphia

I tried Salon Ou for a haircut, because where I usually go was booked out got weeks. The owner, Van, gave me a haircut and he did a horrible job. He didn’t blend any of the layers together and his technique was incredibly poor compared to my experiences at other salons in the city. When I went back to have my hair fixed today, Van and Rob were trying to shut me up when I was sitting waiting to be talked to. I asked if someone else could fix it, because I didn’t trust him. It was clear he was focused on his ego rather than fixing his mistakes or having someone else in the establishment fix it. If you’re thinking of trying a new place, I don’t recommend this salon. Overall, the skill level was low, they’re rude, and have no customer...

I first met Vann at my old salon and was excited to see him set up in Fairmount, where I moved nearly five years ago. Vann is the most professional yet personable and skilled hair stylist I have ever had. He thinks through your look and his previous work- and how he can better those--even when you are not in his chair. Over the last six months with him, that has resulted in my evolving, subtle, beautiful cut and high lit head of gray hair! Also, I value that Vann is on the job from color to shampoo, and from cut to styling. My previous salon often switched me out to 2-3 people for the various tasks, which can become hectic. This is much more calm...

Outstanding. Gracious. Professional. Clean. Engaging. Friendly. Organized. Small business.

I have been going to Ou for nearly two years. I am always greeted by Rob with a smile or a fantastic story. Vann is who I usually see, but the other members of the team are just as excellent. They all listen to their customers. You delight is obviously their priority.

The space is clean. They are mindful of the products they use and their environmental impact. They seem to be excellent to their employees and function as a team.
