I had the best pedicure ever there. Raquelle did an amazing job and was very sweet.

Martha M

Was only in Kelowna for 2 months like 3 years ago but DANG I'm still thinking about the best haircut I ever had. Every time I need a haircut I wish I could go back :')

Sheri Bradshaw

My favourite place to relax and unwind.

Simone Charbonneau (Simchow)

Best stylist in Kelowna. Thanks Ty

Colin

Mary is an exceptional and friendly hair stylist, and I can not recommend her and this salon enough. Super professional, high quality products and service, extra friendly customer service and a pleasant parking experience and area of town.

Steffanie Mackie

The staff and space are exceptional! Was the best time EVER!

Adrianna T

Kylee is amazing.

nicole dowhaniuk

LOVE the atmosphere, the products and the beautiful people!!

Matthew Unrau

As a guy, it could feel weird going to a "spa" to get a haircut. But I get my hair cut by Mary, and she's just the best. I can say the head massages are awesome, the cut is top quality, and the conversation inspiring. Mary is a must if you need someone to cut your hair.

Nicole McDermott

Great services and a great staff!

Katherin Kim

I had an amazing haircut (Dani) and mini massage...it was all wonderful! I was served tea, a glow pressed juice after my massage and felt really well taken care of. Thank you!

Tracy Steen

Ty did a fabulous job on my hair ????

Taylor Atwater

I have been seeing Kay for almost a year now! Every time I have come out looking and feeling great! She is an awesome person and does a great job. I always recommend her to my friends!

I am so sad to have to share such a horrendous experience. My first appointment here was fine staff was very friendly. My stylist was again very friendly but work was subpar. I wish I could add photos here but will instead include them in Google photos. My first appointment I was supposed to be getting balayage, instead I recieved fine weaved out foils. It was barley noticable and it only was visible from the front. She was so kind I paid and just had my hair done somewhere else. I liked the salon a lot so decided to try it again. I explained I had a photo shoot. I booked days in advance to ensure things would work well as I was looking for quite a change. When I booked I also sent photos in advance of my current hair and the desired colour. I also strongly suggested I could be booked with anyone else other then the last stylist, which was clearly not recieved as I was again booked with the same stylist. Then my stylist called in sick, life happens, and they scheduled me in for the same day as the shoot. I think this is quite risky and as a stylist of almost 15 years myself I would ensure I was clarifying anything I was unsure about. I again recieved weaved thin foils. My hair looked terrible and nothing like what I had asked for and still had roots! The stylist then asked me how to fix my own hair!! I have never hated my hair so much. They did offer to have her fix it but after two disappointing appointments my confidence in Kay was gone. I was in tears and had a photo shoot. They did not charge me, which I think is exactly what should be expected. However, I asked to have my cost covered at another salon as now it's not just a colour but a color correction which can cost more then double what I would have paid. They refused to pay as the thought that non payment at orah was sufficient. Which I would have agreed if it was not costing me double to have this mess fixed. Not only that I could not get back my deposit for my photos as I had to cancel not being able to get my hair fixed. So not only am I left with terrible hair, I am out my cost of the deposit of the photos as well as the difference of a color correction. In the end it cost me a fortune to have a hair disaster. As I said I will upload the photos of what I was left with and what I was looking to have done. I would highly recommend looking at other places before considering orah. I am so disappointed as thinking just not charging me for wrecking my hair and my photo shoot and causing me to need a color correction was enough on their end. It was really to bad. After reading the response I want to be clear I am being truthful and am adding a direct quote from the said email. "As you did not pay for your service, rightfully so, I feel there is nothing more to offer at this point and we wish you all the best."

Wonderful 1st time experience for hair color with Sierra! I even got a head massage with my shampoo which was so relaxing. The color turned out perfectly. Thank you.

Dorothy Bailey

Loved my experience at Orah spa! All the ladies were super nice and welcoming! I heard about them through Hula Creatives video on local businesses! So glad I checked out orah, I will definitely be back and I’ll be recommending their facials to friends and family!

Michelle Brandel

Beautiful atmosphere with friendly staff. I can't give a complete review as I only received a lash tint. I found that my last tint wasn't as dark and didn't last as long as I had before at different salons. With that being said, I would definitely return and try different services.

Twisted Sister

I went in seriously stressed out and came out the complete opposite. I haven't been that relaxed in a long time. I was there for about 4 hours. Massage, facial and hair. I love this place, I live in the neighborhood and I need to visit more often!

Mary Ann Gill

Love the pedicure !!! Best pedicure ever !!!!

Alexa H

I had a *life changing facial by Taylor last weekend. It was an hour of serious relaxation. Felt so grateful for the experience.

Jessica Hedrick

I've had a few of the stylists here and they're all brilliant!

Julia Jimmieson

Super excited and impressed with my first visit! Kimberly exceeded all my expectations. I cannot wait to come back and see her again. Gorgeous salon! Fabulous staff.

Arnica Rowan

The staff are warm and the salon decor is very welcoming. Krista does a great job on my short hair (and not everyone can cut short hair!) Great parking in the parkade (which can be a huge problem in this neighbourhood,) and super walkable if you live in Pandosy Village. Highly recommended!

Katie Crittenden

Friendly, knowledgeable staff, as well as an immaculate and inviting space. Everytime is the best time at Orah. :)

Select Sailings

Beautiful Salon - Fantastic Products - I have the best hair specialist too - KyLee :)

Ousainou Corr

I have had several pedicures all over the world, and I have to say my pedicure with Rachel was one of the best pedicures I have ever received. She had me on my birthday, and took her time with my cuticles, handled my heavy legs with elegance and scrubbed my size 15 feet with pure confidence. I tend to be self conscious about the she of my feet but she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. I will most certainly be returning, probably regularly. Thank you so much Rachel!

Cyn Thia

Not very welcoming or friendly. I will just leave it at that...

Gonzo Okanagan

Just purchased a full treatment for my daughters 20th birthday. She LOVED it!

Tabitha Tumback

I love this salon! The vibe is so calming and I always feel welcomed by the staff. My stylist kay always knocks it out of the park. She is so knowledgeable and talented. I never leave disappointed.

Iysha Blais

Got my first ever facial here about a month ago. One of the most glorious experiences of my life!!!! Sooo relaxing! I will definitely be back and will continue telling friends and family how amazing my entire experience was here.

Svitlana Shkyn

I like this salon! i chose Danny as my hairdresser and very happy with my choice! Everyone else seems to be very professional as well! I can say it’s #1 in Kelowna!

Pete Lajoie

Ty and Dani are The BEST Duo ! Together; their professionalism speaks volumes and their work ethic melts the heart/warms the soul. I am a regular customer client at Orah as I never ever look back at any other hair stylist than Them ????

Tara Johnson

Best pedicure I have ever had! Beautiful clean spa, upstairs in the loft. Antonia was very professional, and she gave a really good foot/calf massage. My feet feel so soft and pretty! Staff are very friendly and kind. I will definitely be back. Thank you for the best experience :)

Mary Finnegan

My sister and I had a wonderful pedicure and manicure from Cai and Chelsea. The space was very airy and bright and we were nice and relaxed and happy when we left. We have had a lot of compliments on our nails so we have been telling people where to go!

Missus Nat

Best place in town!

Margaret Pickford

Devon is a brow wizard!!! I've been looking around for awhile to find someone who does brow waxing and tinting. She is SO good and has such attention to detail. On top of everything it was relaxing. I've never loved my brows more. I will 100% be back and am telling anyone who needs their brows done to go see her.

Kristen Olychuck

Amazing experience!!! I have never felt comfortable in a hair salon or spa before in my life, but I really do here. I felt confident in all of the girls to give me what I asked for. My balayage hair colour looks amazing, and my wedding hair and makeup was spot on. I couldn't ask for more in a salon, I will definitely be coming back!!!

Todd Preston

Exceptional experience from the moment you open the door! Extremely professional in every manner. You will not be disappointed.

Victoria Overton

From the moment you walk in you feel welcomed and calm in this beautiful spa. I have been getting my hair done by Kay for about 6 months now and I could not be happier! She is professional and listens to what I want but offers advice and her suggestions as well. I highly recommend this salon!

J Wagar

Best haircut I've had in years! Kylee is an amazing hairdresser. The staff are great. Thank-you for a great experience. I highly recommend

Gwen Georgiou

Sierra was a gem. She consulted with me to discuss how I would be able to incorporate my reoccurring gray roots with a combination of natural yet fashion forward colours. This is a big step for me and She held my hand and walked me through it. Thank-you Sierra from the bottom of my heart ! I am embracing my grey hairs not just covering them up as if they don't exist.

Alyssa

Amazing staff & services. Reminders are great and the reception staff are lovely. I have received various services from Kelsey EF and she is always so happy and kind! I leave satisfied and relaxed after every visit. 10/10 recommend for all spa needs!

Brad Marshall

I don’t think there is a more beautiful place or friendlier team in the entire Okanagan valley. Ask for KyLee.

Stephanie Dickson

I recently had the most amazing Spa/Salon day at this location, I had the pleasure of experiencing the 20 minute add on massage, the luxury pedicure, manicure, makeup and hair styling. Over the week leading up to my appointment I was in communication with multiple people from this location trying to organise a package that would ensure I was receiving all of the services I wanted. I couldn't thank the ladies enough for making this such an unforgettable experience. The Spa and Salon are very well decorated and such a fantastic atmosphere. All of the staff at Orah Spa + Salon are absolutely amazing, they made me feel like royalty and I would recommend this Salon to anyone looking to get the A list experience. I will be returning again without a doubt!!!!

Hailee Collins

I've been here a few times for Massage & Hair and really like this salon ! Everyone is very friendly and Kay is an amazing hair stylist. She really listens to you ( which is hard to find ) and I always leave feeling like a million bucks <3
