Lina was my stylist. I walked in yesterday because I was desperate to get my hair done. It’s been pretty neglected and I had resorted to the $6 root touch up from Target.😭 I knew it was a slim chance anyone was free to do the multiple hours worth of work I wanted done. I was a little nervous when they said they…
I really wanted to love this salon, but unfortunately my experience left me very disappointed. About a month ago, I came in for a color and haircut. The color turned out well, but after washing and styling my hair myself a couple of times, I realized the haircut was noticeably uneven. I called to schedule a…
Lovely salon with a helpful staff. Ashley was great. Took her time to listen to what I needed and my color came out great! This was my first visit and I'm all booked for my next one!
Always a great experience morgan is amazing!!!!!
Natalie really out did herself today! My color cut and syle is great! Thank you
Morgan does an amazing job. So happy with my cut and color!
Melissa G is a delight.
Rebekah is obviously very experienced. My cut and color needed correcting. She fully explained the process to fix both. So happy I landed an appointment with her by chance. I’ve already booked my next appointment. Rebekah is new to Origins and I am certain she’s going to be in demand. Thanks Rebekah.
Amazing
I go to Kinsey for root smudges over my grays, highlights and haircuts. She’s really amazing at blonde hair and layered haircuts for straight, flat hair. She gave me amazing curtain bangs that I love! She texturizes my hair and takes her time on haircuts. Finding a stylist that can do great haircuts and blonde hair…
I have been going to Origins Salon for many years now. I can’t say enough good things about the salon and my stylist. I’m one that gets “bored” with my color every season and my stylist is always ready and willing to help me reach my color goals. Also A+ on the customer service from the front desk staff. I…
They are the best!!!!!!
Danielle is a talented hair stylist with a friendly and dynamic personality to match. She does such a great job with my cut and color while making time for my husband’s hair as well! I’m so grateful to her.
Alexis is absolutely incredible to work with. I started seeing her after a horrible experience with another stylist and came to her with damaged, chopped hair and she has led me through this regrowth journey and made me feel and look beautiful all along the way!
I always have the best experience at Origins! Kinsey is the sweetest and amazing at what she does. I always leave loving my hair. Can’t recommend her enough!
Absolutely remarkable service! I’ve been seeing Melissa for more than 2 years and she has transformed my hair into the hair I’ve always wanted!! I highly recommend her!! I cannot thank her enough for what she’s done for me!!
Marissa is amazing. She always makes my hair beautiful. Nice environment and pleasant people. Great products too.
Natalie did an amazing job! I came in with highlights the from somewhere else that I was not happy with and she fixed my hair. She really listened to what I wanted and made it happen. My hair is beautiful and I feel confident about it. Highly recommend
It’s a nice salon but I’ve had 4 stylist leave in the past year and I only loved one stylist cut and color. I had to wait 30 minutes today before I was even taken back to the chair and another stylist had to put on my color to get my appointment going, then I waited another hour before I even saw my original…
I wanted to change my color and style and Ashley helped me come up with a plan! She gave me options and we started to get me where I want to be!
I had a great experience at Origins Salon with Ashley. She spent the time to know exactly what I wanted and was extremely careful not to damage my very fragile hair. I highly recommend her!
I’ve been going to Kiersten for years and she is the best! We have done a lot of color work with my hair and it always looks amazing! I have also seen Melissa and she was wonderful as well! I have never had a bad experience- the salon is always clean, comfortable, and professional. Pricing is fair for the level of…
The whole salon is very cute and comfortable! Kierstin was amazing!!
Kinsey is absolutely wonderful. I get exactly what I want every time! I won’t go anywhere else. I even had my husband start going here because I know they won’t disappoint! Highly recommend!
Jessica did a great job with color and my cut!
This salon is the best. Live Danielle always does a great job.
Melissa G is an amazing artist with hair and so sweet love going to get my hair done Best cut and Color I have had in years Highly recommend the cutest and welcoming salon
I’d highly recommend any of the stylists at Origins in Castle Rock. Melissa is exceptional!
Went in for a black/silver highlight before leaving for a trip. My stylist was Morgan and she originally gave me an estimate for a full black/white balayage at $300. I showed her other reference photos for a black/silver highlight and managed to find a better style for $220. Throughout the entire treatment I was…
I've been a loyal customer at Origins Salon for over two years and have always purchased my Kérastase hair care products directly from them. Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience recently when I tried to return a Kérastase serum I had just purchased. When I went in to return the product, I was…
Wonderful service!! All of the girls are so nice and amazing stylist. Was offered the best service and made me feel at home!
Jaden was wonderful, she listened to what I wanted and talked through the options of how I could get it. The outcome was even better than I had hoped for!
It was great meeting Hayley! She listened to what and wanted and more than delivered! Love the way my hair came out! :)
Not only was Cori a great stylist, she’s a true gem as a human. Organic, authentic & personable. I gave her the reins & let her guide me & I’m so thrilled with my cut, style & color! She has a gift & talent that comes so natural to her. Such a fantastic experience!
Love my low lights and haircut! Thank you Morgan! -KT
Just moved to Colorado and needed a fresh start with my hair, Origins did not disappoint! My stylist Jaden 🙌🏼 was incredibly sweet, walking me through every step of the color and products, making sure I was comfortable the whole time. The end result? A gorgeous haircut and highlights that I absolutely love!…
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…
I usually never write reviews but after getting my hair done I couldn’t resist. I went in not knowing exactly what I wanted besides wanting to go blonde, but my stylist was Michaela and she EXCEEDED expectations! My hair is more perfect then I could have imagined and she helped me narrow down what route to go with…
Avery did an amazing job on my color and cut. I have gray hair and she perfectly matched the tone of my hair and made my usually coarse hair feel super silky. I will definitely be returning.
Everyone was nice and welcoming as this was my first time at this salon. Alexus was amazing! My hair color turned out exactly the way I wanted. I can’t wait to go back :-)
Cori is the bomb!! She made me pretty again!😁
Just a heads up, everyone...I agree with other reviews regarding pricing. Not transparent at all. The starting price on the online booking system is a VERY low, misleading estimate. I ended up paying about 75% more than the starting price. Even if you call the salon, the receptionist is unable to provide an estimate…
I gave her a home box dye job and she gave me a beautiful all over color and cut back. So incredibly happy with how it turned out!
Jaden is wonderful! I love my hair ❤️
Welcoming staff, professional as well as talented stylists. My new home salon and looking forward to many returns. Thank you, Haley & Kelsie. You were a delight & much appreciated!!
You want Brooke!!! I came in for highlights and she was so sweet. My highlights weren’t exactly what I was wanting due to a miscommunication which was on my part but she immediately rescheduled me and fixed it. My hair looks amazing. You can tell she really cares about her clients and their hair and total hair health. 10/10
I had Melissa G as my stylist and after 4 months post partum I was ready for a change! She listened to exactly what I wanted and I LOVE my new hair. We did balayage and a medium length cut and it came out perfectly! She's been a stylist for 20+ years and I can't recommend enough!
I've gone here multiple times now and I have no idea how I'd find anyone even close if I were to ever move to a different state - Haley is incredibly personable, knowledgeable and kind and is always able to take my ideas and translate them into something that works incredibly well for me! I cannot stress enough how…
I absolutely LOVE everything about this salon! More specifically, Cate is the best stylist I’ve ever had. She is extremely kind and personable, and listened to what it was that I was wanting, while providing some of her own ideas which I appreciated. I have truly never liked my hair as much as I did leaving my…
hair stylist sick today and they got me in and were very kind.
I had the pleasure of visiting Origins Salon the other day and I must say it was an exceptional experience! Maddy and Julie-hairstylists, are truly amazing! They took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, and the result was beyond my expectations. Their skills, attention to detail, and warm personalities…
Michaela took the time to talk me through my thoughts and ideas. She was absolutely amazing. My hair turned out better than I could imagine.
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…
Avery got it exactly right - I’ve never had a better hair cut and color. Not only that but she was professional, kind and damn funny! She also upselled me on some products I can’t wait to use! I’m incredibly happy
First time at Origins Salon and will be back. Marisa was amazing! Such great service, can’t wait to go back.
I have been seeing Melissa for almost a year. I have recieved phenomenal service from being greeted as soon as I walk into the door, offered something to drink from front staff. Melissa has the biggest smile on her face every time that she sees me. She listens, asks questions & gives suggestions. She will fix any…
I paid right under $500 for my daughter to have pink streaks placed in her hair and the color fell out in less than one week. We followed all the guidelines for protecting the color including cool water for washing and using the proper type of shampoo and conditioner. Had this done for years at a different salon…
Danielle Rayl is the absolute best! Have been going to her for years! Thanks girl! 🥰
Maddy was phenomenal. She made me feel important, she listened, and provided great guidance to help me fulfill my personal beauty goals.
Amber was great!! She really listened and did exactly what I asked for. I’m very happy!
I’ve struggled with stylist in the past not hearing me out on what I wanted done to my hair but at Origins they listen and give you a good price point on what you are looking to spend. I absolutely love the work Melissa does and I will continue to see her. I drive 45+ minutes just for her to do my hair!! She never…
Jill was absolutely brilliant with her conduct and application. Hair looks phenomenal, and exactly what I was looking for. Please stay here! I lose my favorite people… She’s a keeper!
It was my first time at this salon. I saw Alexis for a partial highlight and trim, she did an AMAZING job! I’m obsessed with my new hair and I am thankful I found a permanent stylist! Highly recommend her for any hair maintenance! Also as a first time customer, I received a little goodie bag of sample hair products…
I’ve seen a few different stylists here and everyone has done an incredible job! I saw Cate today, who was very nice and friendly, and decided to try something new with my hair. I asked for her advice on what would look best and went with it. It turned out amazing!!! This is my go-to place to get my hair done! I…
Haley is the best! Every time she does my hair I love it even more! I’ll never go to anyone else!
Jessica was amazing!! I will be continuing to drive to castle rock from Colorado Springs just to get my hair done by her!
I always go to Ashley for my hair. She's a great stylist, very knowledgeable, very experienced, and really kind. She's always super helpful with deciding what haircuts and colors will work with both my skintone and my face shape. I'd never go to anyone else. She's amazing!
Great people and pleasant atmosphere
Such a great experience. The salon itself is cute, stylish and clean. Everyone was friendly. My stylist Makayla was so sweet and amazing. I love my hair.
I had Kiersten and she was absolutely wonderful! She trimmed my hair and colored it and gave good recommendations for the coloring and products. The front desk girls were also super sweet. Highly recommend this place!
I love Marissa! She is kind and very talented. I give her free reign on my color because she does it fun and it always comes out looking great!
Tinella did my color and did an excellent job. She listened asked questions and was very professional. I would go back again for my color.
A very clean, beautiful salon and such kind stylists! It was my first time seeing Michaela but I was blown away by her talent and she was so sweet, will definitely be going back!
Kyra was amazing!! She never fails at making my hair a piece of art. She takes her time and truly takes pride in her work
Cut always pleased Highlight looks great.
Kiersten was great! She was personable and did a great job on my hair! Looks amazing!
I visited this salon for the third time and saw Melissa Wolkow. She did an amazing job! She listened to what I was looking for and performed beyond my expectations! She gave me lowlights as well as a few highlights. I am so pleased with the overall outcome — pure perfection!! The salon itself has a very nice…
Excellent cut - Katie is friendly and very professional.
Kiersten did a great job with my hair.
I have been super happy with Origins and Hope's expertise with my blonde hair. She is so much fun and listens super well to my hair wants and desires. I love my hair every time I leave the salon. Definitely recommend!
Had a great experience with Michaela
Marissa is EXCELLENT! Love, Love, Love my hair color, and she always does a great hair cut!
Very cute inside, my stylist, Melissa did a fabulous job.
Choice of perm rods for my hair. Jill is a professional hair stylist. Hair is perfectly styled. Highly recommend! Coloring appointment was a couple weeks after perm. Great color and I am very satisfied with the color sealer application.
Go for it! Book the appointment and if Michaela is available you’re in great hands. Had the pleasure of having her as my stylist. Did a cut and color, showed her pics of what I wanted and she was able to deliver! She also communicated realities of color expectations (which I adored because I asked what could be…
Ashley is the best for blonde and grey coverage!
Always an amazing experience!! I see Jill and in my 20plus years of getting my hair done she is the only person to ever get it right! Not to mention everyone is so pleasant! Always a great experience.
I just went to Origins for the first time today and saw Hope. I had the same stylist for 15 years and she just became a stay-at-home mom so I had to find a new stylist. I cannot say enough great things about this salon and Hope! She listened to exactly what I wanted. I absolutely love the job she did highlighting…
Excellent service. Tinella always does an incredible job with my color and cut!
My experience here has been wonderful! Everyone is very friendly and the atmosphere is relaxing. I have seen 4 different stylists, due to my schedule, and have loved every one of them! My cuts are well-done, and my color has been what I’ve wanted. The products used make my hair feel (and smell) so good, I’ve bought…
Awesome Salon! I’ve been going there for about 4 years! They have great products and promotions all the time! I entrust my hair to Kim who is an artist and the best colorist I’ve ever seen. I get compliments on my hair from strangers all the time. As one of the owners of the salon she is invested in everyone who…
Haley is the best- always so professional and fun to be around. I can talk to her about everything and she is so welcoming. I love my hair EVERY time!
Michaela did a great job on coloring my hair! I am Never disappointed when I go in to see her :)
good
Kelsie was amazing. She spent time listening to what I wanted and I walked out feeling like a new person. Loved the atmosphere, too.
Origins Salon is great to work with! From the friendly receptionist at the front desk, through a wide range of competent stylists, you can depend on the Origins team for all of your needs.
Got the best haircut ever here, I get so many compliments and they did a very thorough job with all over color and split ends treatment.
I go to Origins to see Michaela! She has been doing my hair for years now and it always look an amazing!! She lets me know what my hair needs, whether it’s a trim or a treatment she keeps my hair looking great and growing healthy! Highly recommend going to see Michaela for your hair!
This is my number 1 go to anytime I need to get my hair done. My stylist Haley is an absolute angel ❤️. She does an amazing job every single time and she’s so so much fun. Haley is so talented and just a sweetheart 🥰.
Morgan is absolutely the best. She does great work and is very friendly!
I love going to Origins. Jill does a great job with my hair. A make up artist was at the salon demoing products and did my makeup. Great day for me.
Had a great time, and they always do an amazing job!
Always a good experience
Michaela was absolutely amazing! My hair cut/ balayage came out perfect :) highly recommend!
Kelsie did a great job, she always is attentive and listens. Only negative is the pricing, salon is a little pricey compared to other places.
First time there and it was a wonderful salon. Kiersten was great! Definitely going back again.
Marisa was my stylist. She was friendly, on time and was very detailed in ensuring my hair looked great!
Awesome. Micala was great!
The place is simply magical when you walk in. Everyone is very friendly and the atmosphere is very warm and homey. Michaela did my hair and I am looking forward to going back!!!
Jessica is the best! Sweetest person, fantastic shampoo massage, great haircut and amazing color!
Jill is amazing, creative, patient, and a true artist. I'm often caught between pictures of styles that I like but unsure how to adapt them to my specific hair type. Jill listens and offers her expertise along with explaining the process options and cost options along the way. She always creates a perfect style…
GREAT haircut and color. A little high priced. Marissa was awesome!
Katie was AMAZING! She knew exactly what I wanted and was able to shoot WAAAAYYYY beyond my expectations! I am so happy and cannot wait to see her again in January. Suuuper reasonably priced for how much hair I have.
Very good about going over price and walking you through the process. The prices are not what they advertised when booking the appt. Really the only downside. Coming from California I’m use to paying high prices for good hair service but this was even more expensive. Considering I went darker and wasn’t doing all…
Kelsie was great! She was very thorough and made sure that I would have the best experience there!
Haley was my hairdresser and she was AMAZING!! I had been to 4 different places trying to get a particular look, with no luck. My last hairdresser completely destroyed my hair. Haley actually knows what she’s doing. My results were even better than what I was asking for. Haley is never allowed to leave me!!!!!
I love Origins and Harmony the most. I’m moving to Atlanta and I will miss her terribly. She is amazing!!
Absolutely wonderful!! Morgan is the best!! Would recommend to anyone with hair!
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!
Hope is amazing! She knows exactly what your hair needs before you do. My hair has gone from damaged to silky healthy vibrant over the years thanks to her product knowledge!!
