Whitney is awesome! I have been looking for a new stylist to cut my hair (I am very picky) and she did a great job. It was exactly what I wanted. The salon is really nice, and everyone is so friendly!
Love Origins Salon...They've taken care of my hair since they opened at their original location across the street. Highly recommend booking your next appointment while you're there as they book quickly due to their amazing service!
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…
Whitney was amazing! My full highlight and cut turned out fantastic! I would definitely recommend Whitney if you’re looking for an amazing stylist!
Stylist ruined my hair. I think she was new but I truly dont know how you mess up someone's so badly. My hair was past my shoulder blade and I asked for 2 1/2 inches cut off and now its collerbone length. My bangs were curtain bangs touching my lips when straight down, and now completely chopped all the way across…
Great salon and haircut.
I requested an A-line (inverted) bob (i.e. longer in the front and shorter in the back) and I actually had a picture on my phone. Unfortunately, Kaia cut my hair too short in the front and not short enough in the back. So now I look like a boy with a weird layered bob. Update: Marisa recut my hair and gave me an…
Relaxing atmosphere and great staff!!!! Highly recommend 👌
Great haircut, it’s obvious Origins really cares about clients. Friendly and happy service from the moment I walked in the door.
Amazing service and attention to detail! Kinsey really took the time to listen to what I wanted with a specific color request. She nailed it and I’m obsessed with my new color!
Natalie really out did herself today! My color cut and syle is great! Thank you
Makayla was the best stylist i’ve ever had. she accommodated to my super thick hair perfectly and gave me exactly what i was looking for!!
Be careful — hidden fees and overcharging. This salon is dishonest with pricing and adds surprise charges without your agreement. If you book a haircut, the stylist may claim your hair is “extra thick” and charge you more even though you never approved it. Their pricing feels phony because the total ends up being…
Outstanding customer service, and a joyful place to be. I have been to Danielle R for several cuts and I have to say they have been the best haircuts I've had in decades. Reception gals are delightful, the reminder and confirmation system works well for me, and checkout is very easy Highly recommend
She did a great job.
Jessica has been cutting my hair for over 2 years and does an awesome job! And Melissa's doing a great job also!
Ashley is amazing! I absolutely love my new short haircut!
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.
Always a great experience. Harmony and the rest of the Origins staff are absolutely wonderful.
My experience is always so good! It is my me time, just wish it was longer!!
It's always a great experience with Jill! She's an excellent hairstylist!
Excellent!!
Morgan does an amazing job. So happy with my cut and color!
It can be hard to find a stylist that does men’s long hair well, and I’m glad I found Morgan J.
I truly enjoy going to Origin Salon. I have gotten my hair done at many salons and always end up feeling bad about how much I spent for what I got. At Origins, I leave super excited about my new style and know it will last/ grow out well. They have very talented stylists!
I love my haircut. I was disappointed in the new price, I wasn’t told ahead of time that the price had increased by $14.00. It should be a discussion that is had with the client ahead of time.
This was my 3rd or 4th appt with Danielle R. I love how pleasant everyone is..and helpful. It's not just about getting a haircut...it's about being appreciated and honored. The expertise of the stylists is evident in every customer walking out the door. But the experience is the now on that package...feeling a…
Marisa is amazing! The color she did is exactly what I wanted.
Haylee is amazing
Kristen has cut my hair for almost 3 years now. I love it super short and she doe a great job.
Melissa G is a delight.
Melissa is a fantastic stylist and has a great and delightful personality.
I like my haircut and highlight and my stylist seemed very nice but I might as well take out a second mortgage as it was double what I paid anywhere else in the last 40 years!!! not only do they charge you outrageously for a haircut and highlight or whatever you’re getting but then they charge you for shop products!…
Origins Salon is the best place to get a haircut. My stylist, Jill cut my hair to perfection. She listened intently to my hair requests and cut my hair exactly how I wanted. I highly recommend Origins Salon.
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.
Always a pleasure. Being a California transplant here, was so thrilled to have been referred to Jill!! Almost 5 yrs now and totally satisfied.
Morgan is great! She does just what you ask and a pleasure to chat with!
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…
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.
Always cut my hair just the way I like it and very friendly.
Amber is literally the best. I have never stayed with a stylist for more than 2 cuts because I haven’t found one that has given me exactly what I want. Amber is awesome and isn’t afraid to give me the short layers that I need in my hair that other stylists have messed up before or are too afraid to cut. I will…
I love seeing Melissa! She does a great job!
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!
It's always a delight going into Origins Salon in Castle Rock. The building is beautiful and the atmosphere is fun. My stylist, Jill, is the best! Very skilled and so nice to visit with.
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!
I always have a nice relaxing time with Kirsten. I showed her a picture of the style I wanted & she captured it perfectly!
Marissa is amazing. She always makes my hair beautiful. Nice environment and pleasant people. Great products too.
A fabulous salon! My hair dresser does amazing work. I receive much needed TLC and always look forward to my next appointment.
I’ve been going to MorganJ now for several years - she is awesome and absolutely the best! Being a senior woman with straight and fine hair, she always comes through! Thank you so much MorganJ!
Alexis at Origins is fabulous. She helped with my gray hair yellowing and thinning.
The people at Origins Salon are amazing, very sweet and personable. The service is excellent.
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’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!!
Melissa and team are great!!!!!
Jessica did a great job with color and my cut!
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!
Awesome place, our new favorite stylist, Makaylaa, is the best and aims to do the best while pampering you!
I had such a lovely experience today with Melissa G. Not only did she give me the most beautiful haircut, she also made me feel immediately at ease with her warmth and kindness. If you want to feel pampered and well cared for, go to Origins Salon! Such a positive and fun environment and everyone you meet is amazing. 💛
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!
Love my low lights and haircut! Thank you Morgan! -KT
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…
Amber was wonderful! The wash and scalp massage were so relaxing and cut and style looks amazing! And I enjoyed our conversation. I’ll be back! Thank you, Amber!
Michaela was so kind! She asked questions and was able to explain her thoughts when I didn't understand the question in regard to my hair. I showed her two pictures of what I like with my style and she NAILED it. She was very personable and made great recommendations which I'm glad I took bc my hair is super soft…
AMAZING! Jill kills it every time. Love her. She always makes your vision come to life. Also such a good atmosphere here, everyone is so welcoming and nice!
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…
I loved Melissa! Super sweet! Guided me on what to do with my hair and gave me a beautiful layered haircut! Will definitely see her again
I needed a last minute appointment and found Origins Salon. Melissa had an opening, and I’m so glad she did. She was so friendly and welcoming. I knew right off the bat that I was in good hands and trusted her to go a little out of my comfort zone. I LOVE the way my hair turned out and am so thankful to have…
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.
This was my first time into the salon and I was so impressed. I’m very picky about my blonde and Kiersten took so much time learning about what I like, don’t like and gave me advice on how to achieve the look I wanted. The consultative approach included customized pricing. I knew what I’d be paying before we…
Kinsey was awesome! She gave me exactly what I wanted, and asked lots of clarifying questions to make sure she understood what I wanted. I wanted a very different haircut, from mid back length, which was then cut to sit on my shoulders and did highlights. Color and cut came out perfect. Great job! I’ll be back to see her again soon!
Avery is the best hairstylist I have ever had in my life. She knows exactly what to do and cuts my hair perfectly every. single. time. I love her. You have to get your hair cut and colored and styled by her if you want to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself!!
Cate is amazing!!! Outstanding work!
Michaela was amazing and did such a lovely job! Avery was assisting her and was lovely as well. Thank you both! 😀
This is my first time at Origins Salon. I was looking for a new stylist as my current stylist wasn’t really hearing my needs or wants anymore and I saw the damage being done. I went online looking to book a last minute appointment as I was so frustrated trying to style my hair everyday. Alexus had an availability…
I had my hair done by Hope. She did a great job and provided an awesome environment that was welcoming and comfortable. I would highly recommend!
I had an amazing time with Kiersten during my appointment. She completely changed my look and I absolutely adore it and her. I will 100% be coming back every time!
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…
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…
Great cut, stylist was super! Marissa is the best! Looks at all my pictures, consults and does an excellent job. I would recommend her to everybody!
Brooke was very friendly and had great conversation, love my cut! Will be coming here in the future
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…
Morgan did a great job on my hair! I’m so happy with the cut and style! She was friendly and attentive and gave me some good advice and product recommendations to care for my hair.
Cait is awesome! Was pretty nervous to get my haircut from someone new, but she rocked it and am excited for our next visit!
I had an amazing experience! Maddie was very helpful with discussing exactly what I wanted and how I wanted my hair to look.
This place is great, I have never had a bad experience. All stylist's are wonderful. Today I had Julie and she was amazing!
I absolutely can recommend Marisa! 🤍 she is really good at doing her job and I love the result of my highlights and haircut.
Thank you Michaela ! Love my cut !!
Ashley was so kind and knowledgeable! I LOVE my new haircut!!
I love this salon, each time I've gotten my hair done, it was by a different stylist and each one has been amazing! They definitely listen to what you're looking for and are very sweet
I always love coming in, Kelsie is amazing and she always does a great job! She is Excellent!
Entire salon is friendly and professional. Amber specifically is phenomenal. Quality hair cutting and styling, great disposition, and able to interpret what haircut you want and then successfully accomplish it.
Always great care here. I see Melissa and jessica and I am always so happy to catch up with them and my hair is so well cut and healthy because of them.
Jill was salvaging a haircut on me that someone else had botched. She was gracious, listened well, shared a generous dose of empathy, and was wonderful at problem solving and talking through options with me. I left feeling ten times better than when I arrived. I was impressed with Jill’s skills, and she was so pleasant to work with—a true gem!
Haley is the best! Every time she does my hair I love it even more! I’ll never go to anyone else!
The studio is clean & full of quality product. Tinella was a superb stylist; listening carefully to my needs & ensuring I was pleased every step of the way. And she gives a great scalp massage! I cannot recommend her enough.
Great experience. See you in a couple months!
Alexus is great!!!! She is super pleasant to talk to and great at her job. Definitely recommend her.
She cut my hair exactly how I wanted it!
I had just the best appointment! Jill was amazing and loves to chat like I do! The scalp/neck massage was blissful and not expected. The vibe was absolutely there and my hair looked exactly how I wanted it (not easy to do with my hair) the girls took their time and really listening to me. I usually don’t ever…
Jessica is absolutely fantastic! We've been transitioning my hair from red to blond over the last year and doing regular highlights and treatments to get it in top shape for my wedding. The salon is gorgeous and welcoming, the staff are amazing, and they listen to what you want and make your hair dreams come true. Cannot recommend Origins Salon enough.
Marisa did an outstanding job! Gave me great advice and listened to what I wanted. Was professional and friendly! My hair came out amazing! So happy with the experience! Thank you!
Michaela is amazing! She is very knowledgeable about products and always does a great job cutting and styling my hair. Would highly recommend you ask for Michaela!
Jessica was amazing!! I will be continuing to drive to castle rock from Colorado Springs just to get my hair done by her!
Ashley is the very best - no fooling! I trust her implicitly, and I always look and feel better after an appointment with her! Jackie
Staff is always friendly and kind and accommodating. Harmony is an expert stylist!
Always a great experience and satisfactory result with Jill.
Amber did an amazing job! Great conversation and an even better haircut!
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!
The atmosphere was very upbeat & the staff was very welcoming. Marisa was a great stylist. She made sure she knew exactly how I wanted my hair to be cut. Excellent experience!
Ashley always does a fantastic job with my hair
Kelsie was amazing! Got the perfect haircut and highlights just like how I wanted.
Great as usual!!
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.
Ashely is awsome
Alexis is so pleasant and friendly! Does a great job and pays attention to detail.
