Reviews of Oro Salon (Barber Shop)

Mairin Basio

Had a colour correction done by Faraz and it was done amazingly. All the staff are so nice, polite, and accommodating. He knew exactly what I wanted and made sure I left satisfied.

Amazing place and amazing people . Highly recommend this place for your next hair cut or dye. The stylist are beyond friendly and always smile . I would give then 10 stars if I could

Ray Carmichael

I would also highly recommend oro salon. I had a men’s haircut. It’s been a while since my last haircut and I received a lot of positive comments on my new look. So happy.

Robert Nunyabusiness

Always a perfect cut! Won't trust any other place to do a better job.

Tasha M

Did an amazing job

Kristi-Lynn Kirby

Faraz has transformed my hair in ways I never thought possible! I recommend him to everyone!!! The salon is also beautiful and all the staff are wonderful, positive people ???? I love you guys!!!

Kristine Suarez

I've been to Oro Salon a couple of times for a balayage and haircut and am incredibly happy with the results. Carleigh did an amazing job on my hair and she is always accommodating and friendly! The rest of the staff are also all very nice and wonderful. Overall, my experience has been nothing but great - highly recommend!

Brayden Carnegie

Great experience! Just moved to Waterloo, and went to Oro Salon to get a haircut (which I booked the day before, and they were very accomodating with) Could not have been better. Faraz, who cut my hair, was very friendly and welcoming, as well as talented in what he does. Would recommend to students moving to Waterloo, as well as anyone who wants a welcoming, good staff to do their hair. Will definitely be back again! Thanks again.

Jennifer Fischer

Christina is an excellent stylist and a warm and friendly lady. Serving a drink while under the dryer is an added bonus. I have always been more than happy with my hair when I walk out of her salon. I drive from Guelph to Waterloo because she is so good!!

Sean Teamtree

Just brutal. Expensive and brutal. Pass pass

Junilo Santiago

Awesome hopping place. Quick and efficient, excellent cuts, too.

Dan Wilson

Rachelle Molto

I highly recommend Cristina at Oro Salon. I'm always happy with how my hair looks after Cristina cuts it.

Breanna Alonso

I would highly recommend Oro Salon. I have had my hair done by Cristina, Georgie, and Carleigh, and they are all wonderful! If you are looking for beautiful colour, this is your place!

Adrian Curescu

Never had a bad experience with Cristina....I've been going to her for over 15 years now and still treats me like the first time. She's quick, super nice and a perfectionist. Highly recommend this hair salon.

Carol Solorzano

Faraz is amazing. I was unsure of what i wanted done to my hair and trusting Faraz was a great decision. I love what he did.

Areeba Siddiqui

Great and tidy salon. It was my first time to receive anykind of hair treatment so i had been very afraid of losing my hair, or ending up getting a color i hate. Fortunately, Raaga did it beautifully and gave me a very subtle balayage- just what I had wanted. My friends, family and above all my husband loved it. My hair is now softer than ever. I am loving running fingers through my hair! I had contacted several salons in the town , xcentric and Teknik to name a few but Oro salon was the quickest to respond. They reply you even after the closing times. Cristine explained me the entire process and she heard my concerns with peace! Had it been someone less professional i would have freaked out alot! Very accommodating, friendly and cooperative team. Oro salon has now a customer for life! Thank you for the neat job guyz! oh and ntm, thanks for the tea ;)

Vedad Izadi

Fantastic salon. HIGHLY recommend! If you try it, you will probably never go anywhere else. Cristina is the most talented hair stylist and I wouldn't trust my hair to anybody else. Not only does she make your hair look phenomenal, but she's just wonderful positive energy, which is always a bonus when you go to a salon.

Love Cristina’s work! She’s an artist of hair! She works magic. Must try!

irma saenvoravong

Oro salon... what to say? I’ve been going to one hair stylist for years and the same salon. I am person that once I find someone I “trust” I cannot go see anyone else. I don’t like change and have a “fear”. I just got my hair done by the most talented man... that man is FARAZ. Words can’t even describe how happy I am with my hair and he made me feel comfortable, I enjoyed my self and the staff and the owner are super nice and know what they’re doing and talking about. After 10+ years of going to the same salon and same stylist, I have now found a new home to call for my hair. Oro salon, u must go and see any of the talented stylist. Highly recommend.

Sabrina

I really recommend anyone just looking to get their hair styled or blowdried avoid this place all together. I went to get a simple blow out and my hair curled for my grad photos (I was pretty confident that a hair stylist would know how to do this?) and it came out absolutely horrible. I wasted my money when I could've done a better job myself, and I now have to get retakes for my photos as my hair is staticky, volume-less, half curly, and half straight. I really don't know how you can screw up a style, and I usually don't leave bad review but I don't want another student like me to waste their money. If this salon is your only option, do your hair yourself. I promise it'll come out better. Only good thing I can say is that it was clean and stylists wore masks.

Valentino Oprea

Amazing salon! Everyone is very friendly and welcoming! I got my hair done and Cristina was wonderful! I'm getting a lot of compliments on my hair! Love it and definitely recommend!

Amina Husic

Favorite salon! The artists are talented and have wonderful personalities to match. For cuts- I trust Faraz with my life! That man knows what he is doing when it comes to hair. He is such an amazing person inside and out. It's truly a great experience with him all around. He knew exactly what I wanted, I think he might read minds. Cannot wait to get my hair done again. Thank you!!!

Gloria Cooney

Cristina was awesome. She listened to what I wanted for a style and where I wanted to go with it and delivered! The color is great and I want more. As a first time client, I was impressed with the cleanliness of the salon, the setup, the sound and the friendliness of the staff. Oro Salon is 5 stars for customer care and experience.

Marianne Wynes

I made an appointment for the day of my graduation. I was about to cancel (because I didn't realize I made the appointment an hour before my graduation) and they were extremely understandable and accommodated me for that same day earlier in the morning to make it on time. My hairstylist managed to finish an hour before my ceremony started and on top of that surpassed my expectations. I surprised my hubby and family with my new look and they loved it too!! My balayage still looks amazing, especially when I style my hair. I totally recommend this salon. They will totally transform you and will make you WOW! :)

Deborah Catana

Great salon! Very clean and all staff are friendly. Georgie has been doing my hair for years and it looks awesome every time! Cristina is also super nice and welcoming. Highly recommend this place!

Tyler Prete

Really convenient, high quality, and great service. I've come here for my last three haircuts with Faraz and will definitely continue going. I've gone to quite a few barber shops in waterloo but it's tough to find one that competes with Oro. Every time I'm able to book a day or 2 before, which was SUPER convenient. Highly recommend going to see Faraz. He's cut my hair the last three times and is very talented barber and a genuinely nice guy. My first haircut I gave him a poor description of what I wanted and he gave me an awesome style better than what I wanted. Now every time I go he delivers a haircut that is somehow better than the one before - awesome!!

Balkees K

I’m super satisfied with the results!! Thank you Georgiana! I went to Oro salon for the first time, i wanted to match my hair colour with my new extensions, which was a mixed of colours, she was very patient and professional, she listened carefully to what i want, and gave me her great suggestions which led to a great results at the end! And thanks to Carleigh as well, she applied my hair extensions and gave me a great curls to my hair. Absolutely coming back!

Heather Ryan

I couldn't be more pleased with my experience at Oro Salon. From the moment I walked through the door, I felt comfortable and relaxed. I intended on getting a trim but as soon as I met Faraz I changed my mind and opted to chop off about 10" and got the bob I had been considering for a while. Faraz was friendly, efficient, and confident. He offered his honest opinion after listening to my request, and completely delivered. I got a fantastic new look, and Faraz got himself a new client moving forward. Next up: balayage. Thank you Faraz, and Oro. See you again soon.

Dan Soica

Hands down my favourite colour job ever done on my hair. Let’s just say I had a broad idea of what I wanted but didn’t really know how to communicate it. Thank God for Georgie the colour Goddess who deciphered my inadequate articulations and gave me the most beautiful, natural, yet bold balayage look with the cut to match it!!! These people know what they’re doing and are so patient and welcoming to those of us who don’t know. Thank you Oro Salon! After many awful haircuts in differently places, it’s safe to say I highly recommend and will definitely return to this Salon!

Jaclyn Howe

Faraz did an amazing job cutting my hair! I took at least 4 inches off and he cut it perfectly. I would definitely recommend this salon and artist.

Kristen Tse

Highly recommend this salon to anybody for all things hair! Everybody there is extremely kind and welcoming. I went in for a cut and a full balayage from the senior stylist Faraz, who did an absolutely amazing job; he perfected my hair! He was very friendly, funny, and informative, making sure to talk through prices, treatments, and colour before getting started. He worked quickly and I left the salon with my hair looking better than ever and feeling so healthy too (better than anywhere else i’d been before)! I’m so happy with my new hair, I love both my cut and balayage, and would highly recommend Faraz as your hairstylist at Oro Salon for your next hair service!

Elena Chen

Kudos to Carleigh!! She did an amazing and flawless job and I am deeply in love with my new hairstyle. Definitely will be a frequent from now on:)

Osen Necip

Such an awesome salon! Got a crazy fade by Cristina. Hard to find a good place like this!

hossein tafaghodi

Wow, I don’t wanna tell long and boring stories, I got my best haircut ever from “Faraz” there, He is talented, professional and skilled, He doesn’t makes you crazy by talking about everything but he is super friendly and welcoming He explains explicitly step by step to make sure that you get the style that you want You gotta experience it yourself, I have been there several times but my experience with Faraz was exceptional Faraz is the guy that I reccomend to everyone Cheers,

Mandy Miller

Colour masters! I had a colour correction done by Faraz and he knocked the colour out of the park. Thanks so much.

Ash H

I trust Faraz with my life, the man knows what he's doing!

Andrea Varga

Yesterday I visited Oro Salon and had a long and complex hair issue to take care of. I was seen and handled by Ragaa. Ragaa is amazing, she really has true hands of gold when it comes to hair styling. I left the salon feeling more beautiful and extremely happy. My hair colour was perfect, my cut was perfect and the state of my hair was much improved (dryness is gone). I am still smiling today from happiness. Ragaa is not only an amazing professional, but she also has a very pleasant and soft personality. I look forward to my next appointment with her and experience her magic again. Thank you Ragaa!

Vanna K

I had a great experience at Oro with Faraz! I flew from Ottawa to see him based on his Balayage expertise and was well worth the travel. You can see some of his work on his Instagram @hairbyfaraz . Faraz made the experience fun & comfortable and my hair turned out better than I could have expected!! I'd recommend anyone to see Faraz for Balayage and cut / style. Thank you!!!! <3

Kathlyn Rodriguez

I met Rosie from her time at Ritual Hair Skin and Beauty Salon in Toronto in December 2016 and have followed her since her move to Oro Salon in Jan 2018. She helped me start my journey toward being a blonde! Rosie listens to your concerns and your goals with your hair. I knew it was going to take some time to go from a full brunette to a blonde. However, I truly do not mind the wait in between sessions because Rosie’s balayage work is so beautiful and dimensional. It’s so fun to play with! I loved how even though it would grow out in between sessions, it still looked amazing! I get compliments all the time!:) She is an amazing hair stylist/colorist and she is so easy to talk to. I’m so proud that she is now the manager of Oro Salon! With her hard work and passion for this industry, it is not a surprise that she is such a success. You rock, Rose!

Charlene Scharlach

Heading back for a 2nd visit. Customer service was top notch and my hair never looked better

Daniela Chirilenco

Georgiana is honestly the BEST! She’s been taking care of my blonde hair for over 5 years now. She’s very gentle when working with it since I have fine, thin hair. She always nails the ash blonde that I want, and I always leave happy and confident. She just added extensions in my hair and I’m so thankful for the results! I look amazing. It blends beautifully with my short hair and looks so natural. Her personality is like that best friend you never had. My overall experience at Oro Salon is hands down the best. Cristina (the owner) is also super nice and friendly! Love going there. :)

Lisandra Gobette

I cut my hair with Ragaa, an excellent professional. She did exactly what I wanted and I loved it. My hair is light, gorgeous and I feel awesome. She's very positive, and made me feel comfortable all the time. Now I'm going back to do my highlights. Time to relax again.

Cindy Trac

I've been searching for a good hair stylist in town for couple of years now but haven't found one until I went to see Georgiana at Oro. She is the sweetest stylist ever! I went for a cut and super happy with the results. Highly recommended to go see her for an awesome cut.

Kayla Lehmann

Faraz and the team at Oro are AMAZING! I swear he is magic! If you're looking for that hair that even your co-workers can't help but touch , he's your man! I've been to so many stylists and none have amazed me like he does time after time. Days later I am still stopping to look at my hair in any reflective surface I pass. Well worth it, you won't regret it! Special shout out to Christina who is the sweetest thing and as well as a genius when it comes to giving you your dream hair!

Sabrina de Boer

Georgiana literally just gave me the best haircut I’ve ever gotten in my entire life. She was so amazing from start to finish and explained everything she was doing and why it needed to be done. Can’t wait to go back!

Gabrielle Nordquist-Borsi (GabbaTr0n)

Oro salon is one of the best salons I've ever been to. Faraz is fantastic! He's been doing bobs on me and it always turns out perfect. I highly recommend him! Once you sit in his chair, get your hair done and have a conversation you know you've found your new hair stylist! Check out his Instagram (@hairbyfaraz) to see his new daily masterpieces!

Laura Morgan

Love this place! Went there for the first time back in 2017 and loved the experience. Went back this past January and had my hair done by Faraz. Was beautifully done! Came out with what I wanted and it looked perfectly done and healthy. Will definetely be returning! Also prices are very reasonable.

Jacquelyne Dodds

Faraz has been doing my hair for 2 years, not once have I been unsatisfied. I have received so many compliments. I let Faraz take control today and the results are incredible, I feel like a new woman. I will never change hairstyles again.

Priscila Stoia

After 15 years of salon experiences from Chicago to Toronto, Los Angeles and more I must say this salon exceeded my expectations. Cristina, the owner is not only an experienced stylist with so much drive she will make sure you will leave the salon 100% satisfied! She's an amazing people person and makes sure everyone is taken care of at all times! Incredible experience all around!

sabrina I

Been here twice now and Faraz always does a great job for balayage! Never disappointed and alway leave with a smile :) And positive atmosphere! By far favourite hair salon I found yet!

kennedy penelton

booked my appointment weeks in advance only to have the stylist not show up and waste my whole morning. not professional would not recommend.

Aleesha Jones-Blue

I had the greatest experience here and my hair turned out beautifully! I love it. I would say the prices are fair especially compared to other salons around. You really do get what you pay for especially when it comes to the colour. I would highly recommend this to anyone especially if you are wanting balayage, and if there’s any doubt their Instagram will make you a believer. The stylists were all so friendly and attentive to what I was looking for and exceeded my expectations.

Heather Harrison

Both Kristina and Vraz are great stylists!! Definitely recommend. Kristina did both mine and my bridal parties hair for my wedding day! We all were very impressed with her ease and speed of doing many great updos!

Mama Bear

Oh I love it there! Amazing staff and even my two year old loved her experience with getting her hair cut :) I love my fashion colour hair. Amazing and will always come back!

Annie Bajwa

wow!! what an amazing experience at Oro Salon. The first time I went there were a few set backs, however, Faraz did an AMAZING job at my second visit at Oro Salon. Went to get my hair retoned and got a cut - it was fast service but done to perfection! He's a great stylist!! Thanks so much Faraz, will definitely be coming back!

amanda fielding

Faraz did an amazing job colouring my hair. His attention to detail and flawless techniques with regards to colouring, cutting and styling were on point with what I wanted. I highly recommend Faraz :)

Add all applicable services HairstylingHair extensionsBody WaxingManicuresHair colouringPedicures Service not listed M not SORRY for saying that I've been to worst hair salon ever!!!!!! AWFUL customer service!!!!! A happy customer is when you treat the customer with respect and with proper attention. So, I made an appointment for hair coloring over the phone but somehow it didn't work. So, I thought then its fine I can go with hair cut and the girl who did my hair cut told me that she don't know how to do the bangs but my owner can do it for you! I was like okay that's fine and then she asked her in front of me." her statement was I MIGHT NOT ABLE TO DO THIS, I HAVE A LOT OF OTHER WORK." I was sitting quiet on the side and wait her to come and she told me she will do it later, till than I can blow dry your hair. After my blow dryer done she again went to her, She got mad and left the salon immediately leaving her customer unattended. The girl who was doing my hair cut before, she told me that UNFORTUNATELY, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT. WE DONT HAVE ANYONE AVAILABLE TO DO YOUR BANGS!!!!! I WAS LIKE, HEY GIRL!! I MADE AN APPOITTNMENT FOR MY HAIRS TO BE DONE AND NOW YOU ARE SAYING YOU DONT HAVE ANYONE AVAILABLE????? WHAT IT MEANS???? I didn't say anything and pay her "$40" which I FEELS IS A WASTAGE NOW. THEY HAVE NO SENSE THAT SHE EVEN DIDNT TAKE CARE OF ME AS WELL AS DISRESPECT TO ME. This is just because of I say no to paying $430 + tax for hair coloring which was completely opposite what they told me over the phone. In Future, I will say A BIG NO TO THIS SALON.

Tony

Attentive and friendly service, amazing skill. Cristina and her team shine in this business!

Mylene Petit

Oro Salon gave me one of the best experiences I’ve ever had at a salon. The staff were extremely friendly and attentive to my needs, and to top it off my stylist was amazing! I will definitely return the next time I want to get my hair done!

Kristina

Special shout out to Carleigh for always giving me my hair goals and being so lovely to talk to!

Iudita Curescu

Thank you Cristina!!!Amazing job!!!!

Lily D

Way too overpriced also Faraz made me feel uncomfortable with his comments, he seemed way too confident for someone who doesn’t listen to what his clients want and also made comments regarding the view and by view I mean all the university girls walking by “why do you think I work here” being the only female left in the salon at the time while he said this to two other males that were waiting for their haircut as he was finishing my hair. It made me feel very uncomfortable. I was also bothered by the fact that he is an older man talking about young girls in university.

Frances H

Booked my first appointment last week (5 days ago) using their online portal. Instead of contacting me immediately to indicate there was a problem with their system, and the time was not available, they waited until the day before to call me and say I did not in fact have an appointment (even though their online system sent a confirmation email). I found this highly unprofessional. The stylist didn't even leave a voice mail earlier in the day so it was not until 7 pm that I was notified when the appointment was the next day. Have not been to Oro and now definitely have no intention of booking there again.

Liz Saldanha

This place is simply marvellous!! All the staff is very kind and handy. Every time that I go, I always get surprised by how good they can make my hair look like. Carleigh is an amazing hairdresser and if you book an appointment with her you can be pretty sure that the results are impeccable!! Love and recommend this place!

Kristen Lewis

I previously wrote a negative review because I was dissapointed about the hours not matching the website. After the experience, I had to update my review. Today I did get in to to get my haircut and the whole experie ce was FANTASTIC. Christina cut my hair. She was very excited about what I wanted. She has been the first stylist in a long time who has actually listened to what I wanted and then made it happen. The cut I got was exactly what I was imagining and even better. All the staff were busy but they still had a good time and made everyone feel welcome. Great atmosphere all round. I will definately be back.

Vanessa Mountryvong

I’ve gotten a haircut from Carleigh twice now and I don’t think I’m going to be going to anywhere else anytime soon! She really made sure that I got what I wanted from reference pictures and made sure that I was happy and comfortable. She didn’t rush, she took her time, and was very sweet. Amazing job!

heather mulkern

I was in the other day and the place was hopping. Every staff member was helping someone either on the phone or in the salon yet I was greeted with a smile and had my coat taken and hung for me. Hair wash was above and beyond with a massage at the end. Cristina (master stylist) saw me immediately upon being seated and did a fabulous job (as usual). Throughout my visit , the staff were constantly busy but always working together and with a great vibe. Everyone that walked in, either for appointments or as walk-in, were greeted immediately and made to feel welcome. Not your run-of-the-mill factory-style salon. A great team of talented and friendly people in a clean and upbeat setting. Highly recommend for any of your needs.

Heidi Chalmers

Faraz is fantastic! Salon is very clean and organized.

Scotia Greffel

I went into to see Faraz at Oro Salon after I had a bad experience with a hair stylist a few days prior at a different salon. It was really hard for me to trust another stylist, but I went in and felt very comfortable with Faraz and felt he would try everything to get my hair the way I desired. He took his time and walked through every step with me, he did an amazing job correcting the work the previous stylist did. I highly recommend Faraz at Oro Salon as he made me feel confident again !!

Meri H

This is my first time going to Oro Salon. Fun Friendly athmosphere, Excellent service, I love my haircut, and my blonde balayage is exactly what I wanted. Thank you! Impressive work done by Faraz!

Sherin Md

Loved the experience, very nice staffs ????

Jasmine Lai

I love coming to Oro as my go to salon every time I want a balayage! Super value for the results you’re getting. This is the second time carleigh is doing my hair and i love the result. I always get so many compliments wherever I go!!

MARTIE TORRE

Literally can't say a negative thing about this salon!! Skeptical? look at their instagram and see the hair you walk outta there with and you will crazy not to go see what these girls can do!! I grew up with a hair stylist and never trusted *anyone* to do my hair out of fear I'd be a hot mess but I took the plunge with Cristina and have literally never looked back. I've thrown her some curveballs with random and difficult styles (thanks Pinterest!) and I always leave with exactly what I wanted!! I have had so many people ask where I go and I am constantly reccomending my friends to go, when I am feeling blah my hubby reccomends a trip to see Cristina for a new do! And as if her hair skills aren't enough, she isn't one of those snooty gals who don't chat, she is personal and wonderful and always makes you feel like your a friend coming for a chat. This place is going to do great things with stylists like that ????

Gracie Li

10/10 would recommend this place! Rose brought me back to being blonde and I've never been happier! Pricing is reasonable and I've already recommended this place to five of my friends! Definitely never going back to Aveda in Toronto :)

KELLI KENNEDY

Very friendly. Actually asked what YOU want. Takes the time to talk to u and explain if right doe you! Faraz is AWESOME!!

Yazzy Vibz

I am very impressed and happy with this hair salon, Raja gave me a beautiful cut and style. She made My hair look very healthy and shiny. The atmosphere of the salon is very welcoming . They are amazing at doing hair, I will definitely come back!

Shari Losier

I was so happy when I found Cristina. She is amazing. I have been going to her for a few years now and travel from Milton. All of her ladies are great and treat you fabulously. I won’t let anyone else do my hair. Best color and cut you can get and in a style that I can manage myself afterwards. This is so important. Well done ladies.

Donna Duncan

I’ve been going to Cristina for about 10 years now and I always love how my hair looks. She’s a very talented and creative professional. She’s very friendly and welcoming. I’ve referred her to friends and they’ve really liked her as well.

Tara Walker

I love Oro Salon! Faraz does an amazing job colouring , cutting, and styling my platnium blonde hair. He is very talented & knowledgeable about after care treatment etc. I left there today with a smile & will continue to go back. Highly recommended????

Versace Stone

Not a great experience at oro salon. Firstly, I was told it would take 3-3.5 hours to do my hair, it ended up taking 6 hours as there is not enough staff, and too many clients. My stylist was running back and forth between me and another lady who was also getting a hair colour service. I had shown my stylist a picture of the colour I wanted him to achieve, he ended up dying my hair way too light and refused to let me look in the mirror until the very last second he was done drying and styling my hair, even though I insisted I wanted to look so I could make sure it was the colour I wanted. As my stylist was washing out my colour he was making remarks about how good the hair looked and how his past work isnt always the best, and the owner - Cristina was trying to quietly tell him he's speaking too soon and he needs to stop saying such things. I felt extremely uncomfortable. Not to mention how rough he was washing my hair. Extremely painful... I would not recommend this hair to anyone. Although he did end up fixing the hair colour I still feel he could have done a much better job.

Eva Duma

I went to this salon after a bad experience somewhere else and I was very satisfied with the professionalism of this salon. The quality is high and waiting times are small. A very good experience I would recommend to anyone. - Maria Duma

Linda H.

I've been going to Cristina at Oro salon for many years. She is simply the best hair stylist. Every customer is treated with kindness and respect. I highly recommend trying Oro salon. You won't be disappointed.

Maya

It was my first visit here and I love my hair!

Cindy Li

I love coming here! Cristina is the best at what she does. I’ve been coming here for the past couple of years for balayage and it’s always perfect. I went to Voila salon my most recent time and my hair got messed up. I came back to Cristina to fix my hair and I’m confident in the final result. Definitely recommend going to Cristina for all your hair needs! :)

Kelsey Leonard

Great hair salon. Cristina fixed my hair to exactly what colour I really wanted. Very relaxing, clean and welcoming. Almost feels like a spa when they give you a massage while washing your hair! :)

Emma Davis

I went in a few months ago and asked for balayage. I was given high lights (which did look nice but not what I asked for or wanted). I was then over charged like crazy ($450! On my already dirty blonde hair that was just past my shoulders!). I then called back a while later to ask if there was anything they could do to fix my hair and was told I’d have to pay almost $300 to fix it. Very disappointing.

Adam Dietrich

Great service and always make sure I am looking sharp.

Deanna Lee

Friendly staff but horrible experience overall. Somehow the staff changed my appointment time when someone called to change theirs resulting in me waiting over an hour to be helped. I did not get my desired look and I asked for a specific hairdresser and did not get her. The lady I did get was working on myself and 3 others making my service feel rushed and not done right with no attention. Will not be going back.

Amber Burgetz

I went a couple of months ago and had an amazing balyage by Faraz! I just went the other day to get it re-toned and he yet again did an amazing job. I'm obsessed with the colour. I will be back again!

Lea-ann Rusk

Cristina is amazing. I am not all about me and my looks, and I have gone years without a hair cut due to bad experiences. But when I met Cristina she made me feel welcome and her staff is great.. I showed her what I wanted and she did exactly what I showed her. I will not go to anyone but her. Thank you Cristina.

Brooke Catto

I love Oro Salon! Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. I am so glad I finally found a great hair dresser who is AMAZING with blonde hair colour! Thanks so much Cristina!

Kiah Perez

My husband and I went to Oro Salon last night and we can’t say enough good things about it! Faraz has been doing my hair for a little while and he is so professional and personable. I am so happy with the work Faraz and Cristina did on my hair! Cristina is so welcoming and definitely knows her stuff! My husband loved Faraz’s work so much that he wanted to get his hair done as well! Faraz paid such close attention to detail to make sure my hair colour was perfect; I didn’t feel like there was any rush! Will definitely be returning to Faraz for all my hair services from now on! Great professionals and a friendly atmosphere!

Lucica Crucian

I can’t say enough amazing things about this place and The people that work there. They’re super friendly And very welcoming, I always feel good when I come here. I’ve Been going to Cristina For over 15 years now and she always makes me feel beautiful. She’s the BEST, I just sit in her chair and she knows exactly what I want and what looks good on me. I highly recommend you give her a try.

Noah Smith

Quick, friendly and amazing haircuts! Thanks Oro Salon :)

Jeremy Monforte

Top notch to say the least!! My wife and I were both extremely pleased with service and our finished hair!! Would highly recommend.

alina u

Can't wait to get my hair done again. Love the attention and expertise cut, colour and styling.

Jessica Chabot

I had my hair colored by Faraz last week. I am beyond happy with the results, he trimmed my hair and gave me a much needed hair treatment. My hair is returning to a much healthier and manageable state. I have been around many salons through the years and finally found one that I look forward to returning to.

Sarah B

I love this salon ,it’s the best in Waterloo .Faraz is super talented ,I’ve always loved my hair and never been disappointed.Thank you Faraz !

Lindsay Mark

$400+ for a damaged, stripey mess. I got a partial balayage, with Carleigh, trying to get ash brown. My ends weren’t lifting at the back, so she put more bleach on the back and kept it on for over 2 hours including the time it took to balayage. The top layer of the back of my hair broke over halfway up the strands where she had layered the bleach. The ends were also way darker than the roots and overall it was a huge stripey mess. I sent her pictures and she did try to fix it by trimming the damaged sections, putting a hair mask on and toning it darker, but it still looks terrible. I understand it was a partial balayage, but she completely missed the section at the bottom of my part, leaving a dark stripe on the back of my head. Some sections of the “fixed” colour look alright but there are still so many orange spots which didn’t get as much toner I guess, so in addition to another haircut, I will also have to pay to get the colour fixed. Lastly, at both of my appointments, she went outside for a smoke break halfway through which I think is unprofessional. Overall, I regret ever getting my hair done. It’s now irreparably damaged and after years of growing my hair out to a length I’m happy with, I’ll have to spend even more money to cut it and start all over.

After months of trying to find the right stylist I came across Faraz at Oro. I was very nervous going in, but after chatting with Faraz and Christina I decided to go ahead with balayage. I have very thick hair and always struggle to find someone I trust to properly cut and style my hair, but I have never been so happy leaving the salon. The colour is absolutely beautiful and can’t recommend him enough! He told me to trust him and I’m so happy I did!

I highly recommend Oro salon, Cristina did an amazing job with my hair, gave me a beautiful balayage. She is very friendly, very knowledgable and always gives me appropriate recommendation about what’s best for my hair. I would strongly recommend Oro Salon!!

Nice folks working here who do a great job cutting and styling hair. I walk in looking like a basement-dwelling troglodyte and leave actually looking like a respectable member of society, which is no small feat. Thanks guys!

Over priced, rude and bad service This place seems more targeted for older to middle age generation. Christina was so rude and rough with my hair, pulling, tugging, pinching and leaving dyed hair in front of my eyes and face. I showed them a photo of what I wantes (ombré) and I came out like 2001 Lindsay Lohan skunk striped highlights. It looks like trash. Christina seems pretentious and bossy to me and her own employees. Extremely overpriced. The assistant front desk lady took 4 seconds and a pair of scissors and chopped off 4 inches and charged me $55. The dollop of hair proctectant costs another $30 which you might as well go to shoppers and use a hair mask a few times. Just a bad experience overall, would not suggest for student friendly prices.

Went to oro salon for the first time last night and had my hair done by Faraz. Honestly could not have asked for a better experience. Not only was the outcome of my hair amazing, he himself is so great! I enjoyed my whole time there and he made me feel super comfortable and relaxed. He was also super accommodating with my work schedule which is hard to find with someone wanting to stay late to do my hair, so thank you again for this! I highly recommend Oro salon and especially Faraz! Thanks again for such a great experience! I'll definitely be booking in again soon!
