Danielle was amazing and took her time explaining what to expect. She was kind and did such a wonderful job. I love my hair color and cut. This is a very big change for me and she was very helpful and professional every step of the way.

If you are looking for a stylist that actually listens, is completely invested in your look and can perform pure magic with you hair - go see Cate!! I came in for a consult with a picture of what I wanted and there was no token "sure I can do that" response with a glance at my pic. We talked through every aspect of…

The stylists here are very accomplished and trustworthy for awesome haircuts. My gripe with the salon is the exorbitant fees and all the hidden fees. If you book a service, be aware that there are extra fees that will be likely be tacked on. For example, for Balayage, it's an extra $103 if your hair is thick or…

Environment is great and stylist was very nice. I unfortunately wasn’t given the color anywhere close to the picture I showed the stylist. She said that what I wanted was achievable and that I may have to come in for a few bleaches to get the lightness that I wanted but my hair is a light brown color and the bleach…

I’ve been going to origins since they opened in castle rock and it’s always a great experience. All the stylists I’ve seen have been wonderful and the staff is so accommodating and sweet. I bring my kids as well and have never had a bad haircut! Always a pleasure.

I had a great first visit. The receptionist was very warm and welcoming. My stylist, Marissa, was so professional and kind and offered me realistic choices that turned out beautiful! I moved to Colorado over 2 years ago and had almost given up finding someone to do my hair but I’m so glad I found this place. Top notch!

I saw Hope for the first time and was so thrilled with the entire experience. She listened and asked a lot of questions to understand what I like and don’t like done with my hair and created a hair care plan based on my answers. My haircut and color turned out perfect. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and really knows what she is doing!

Origins is the BEST salon I’ve ever been to. When I started at Origins, I needed color correction from a previous experience at a different salon, and in no time my hair became the healthiest it has ever been. Amazing staff, amazing boutique, amazing spa... I can’t say enough about how great Origins is!
