I love this place! Great ambiance, awesome Aveda products, pleasant and skillful staff. Highly recommended! read more

Great team of stylists and wonderful atmosphere. I've had nothing but good experiences here and have been a customer for 4 years. I regularly use their hair services (cut and color) and have had manicures and pedicures as well as salon and spa services. No complaints any time! If you're looking for a great salon, here you go! And I love Aveda! read more

Best massage I have ever had! Very relaxing and professional staff! Highly recommended!!

What a great place! Everyone at 501 makes you feel welcome and pampered. Every time I'm greeted with a smile, then asked if I would like a beverage while I wait for my stylist who is excellent! Kate is the best stylist I've had anywhere and now I won't trust these locks to anyone else. A+++. Go see the awesome people at 501!! read more

Beautiful haircut by Amanda. The place is really nice with friendly staff and Amanda made me really comfortable. I had a free 10 minute consultation with her and I was completely convinced by her suggestions. Will definitely visit again :) read more

I love the atmosphere that 501 brings. I appreciate the customer service I received when I was coming into town and wanted to get in last minute with a certain stylist. But I didn't appreciate the way they treated my friend and stylist which is no longer there. Things could have been handled a lot better. read more

Friendly, knowlegeable staff, pleasant atmosphere. What's not to love about the Aveda philosophy. The 30 minute reflexology was so healing for tired feet. The hot stone massage was relaxing and melted away stress. Nice little neighborhood salon and spa. read more

Kate has been cutting my hair for several years and it's always a great cut. She takes her time and doesn't rush to get you out the door. Cuts include shampoo, conditioner, scalp and neck massage, and hot towels. What I like best is her flexibility with schedules. Due to my travel schedule, I have a hard time making an advance appt. I can generally call the day I want a cut and she will make time. The last salon I used was always booked 2 weeks out. read more

I had an appointment last night with Kate. I haven't had my hair colored in over 2 years. It always pulls red and never turns out the way I want. Kate did an awesome job and I couldn't be happier with the color and natural look she gave me which was exactly what I was looking for! read more

A little pricey but great hair cut! Went to Kate and she did a great hair cut and scalp treatment! She was nice and took her time with me. She even did an additional service in between clients for me. And the place smells soooooooo good when you walk in! Great selection of products from men, to hair, to makeup! read more

I've passed by this salon many times, and wanted to try someplace new, so I booked a haircut appointment with Grace. First off, the environment and the atmosphere is very nice and relaxing. Secondly, the staff was all very friendly and courteous. And third, my hair looks awesome! Grace was very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. We talked about what would be best for my hair, and she took her time with it and cut it just right. The scalp and neck massage were super relaxing as well, and Grace sold me on a fantastic product to help bring some more life into my curls. Great experience and I would highly recommend this salon. read more

501 is such an adorable salon! Kate and Jodi are awesome and have quite the amazing salon and spa. Highly recommend!!!!

As you walk in, the smells and atmosphere are comforting enough to relax you from a long days work. The ladies are all fun and show a true picture of individuality. I have worked with several of the girls and all have given me a first class experience. I had my bridal hair and makeup done by Stephanie, so I of course love her the most. Jordan has done my husband's hair and he prefers her fun and professionalism to any barber or sport hair clips. They are friendly to kids and always remember my name. Well worth the money! read more

For anyone looking for a salon in No KY, go to 501 Salon & Spa. All of the staff are great but Louisa has done such a great job on my cuts and color. I've never been disappointed. Go and you will not be disappointed! read more

The atmosphere is great here, very welcoming. Zara gave me a beautiful precise cut that I just love. She really listened to me and made sure I left happy. 100% positive recommendation! read more

I cannot say enough good things about the staff they are always so friendly. However my stylist Brandy rocks the most! I have very thick semi curly hair and had a run of bad luck with stylist until I met with her. Brandy did an awesome consultation that lasted more than 2 minutes in fact it was more like 15 to 20 minutes. My cut and color both turned out perfectly. I would recommend Brandy and 501 to any of my friends! read more

I've been getting cuts and highlights at 501 for a few years now. I love Kate and Louisa for hair and Brandy and Jordan for pedis. I've had many friends go as well who are really happy with their services. January 2015, Louisa did my special occasion hair and make up for my afternoon wedding. Not only did I think of 501 from the beginning, but I researched, and the rates were pretty much dead on with everyone else for wedding make up. Usually, I find 501 to be by far the most affordable salon with Aveda level services. Okay, wedding make up. I made the mistake of using a tanning bed the day of my rehearsal and Louisa blended away all the red blotchiness on my face. I brought in a picture of my hair inspiration and she had it perfect. I wanted to do something a little different than my comfort zone and I was so happy. Everyone here is kind and talented! Oh and yes, Joy does give awesome massages in a great space. read more

I moved to NKY about a year ago, and Cincinnati 2 years ago from Cleveland. I had a bad experience at another salon in Cinci, and decided that whenever I went home to Cleveland, I would get my hair done by my usual hair stylist. Needless to say, I was not keeping up with my hair cuts. I decided to go to 501 after looking for a decent salon near me, and researching reviews. I got in the day after I decided to try it out, and Stephanie was my stylist. This salon is so cute and everyone was so friendly. They were running a bit behind, and were so apologetic because of it. I showed Stephanie a picture of what I wanted, and she explained what she could do to get as close to the picture as possible. My hair was pretty bad before, and she did such a great job. She listened to what I liked, and gave me such a cute hair cut. The pricing is actually a bit cheaper than most places I've gone to. Plus you get the scalp and shoulder rub. I will definitely be going back for a cut if not before then to try out their spa services! read more

I happen to find Salon 501 on-line and wasn't sure what I was getting myself into. When I arrived I was pleasantly surprised at how adorable the space was. The receptionist greeted me and then came over to chat with me while I waited. I was scheduled for a cut and color with Maggie. I am in the salon industry and am very picky about my hair. Maggie was incredibly attentive and detailed. For my cut I wanted a combination of two different styles and it turned out even better than I imagined. She was patient and overall incredibly talented. I am so happy that I made a rash decision on a bad hair day and took a chance. I couldn't be more pleased. I'm looking forward to my appointment 5 weeks from now. read more

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I have had jet black hair for four or five years and have strawberry -blonde natural hair color. After a year of deep consideration, I decided to have my hair lightened. I thought about doing it myself, then decided that was maybe not the best idea. I called the salon and set up a consultation (which is totally FREE). After speaking with the stylist, who happened to be the owner, she gave me enough confidence to trust her skills. She also gave me 100% honest answers to my questions and didn't lead me to believe she could make me blonde in one day. I really appreciate it when people give me proper expectations. When it was all said and done, my hair lightened enough the first time that I don't really need any further appointments unless I want it even lighter. But she was able to get it pretty near my natural color because of my hair type, type of dye I already had on my hair, and the incredible amount of knowledge of the stylist. I should add that not only did I have jet black in my hair, but also had purple, natural roots, and every shade from jet black to brown from my hair naturally fading out. This was absolutely not something I could have done on my own as she used many different products and did a deep conditioning treatment so it wouldn't look like the bleach-job that it was. Now my hair is a beautiful red and feels healthy! I would HIGHLY recommend this salon to others looking for either a quick cut and/or color or a major overhaul like I had. I'd like to add that the cost was MUCH less than I had anticipated. LOVE this salon! read more

I had booked my first ever massage with Mahala for earlier this evening and must write a review before it slips my mind! Long story short, it's was incredible. I was a littler nervous at first, but she explained everything, made me feel super comfortable, and did an awesome job! I booked the river rock massage, and already pre booked to try the elemental massage with her in about 3 weeks. The room is cozy and dim, there is nature music playing, and all of the facial towels and pillows smell like peppermint. I left feeling like melted butter I was so relaxed. I was literally a puddle of relaxation driving home, and I'm usually the most neurotic anxious person. I am so happy I found a place, and a great massage therapist, close to where I work. I'll definitely be adding this into my self care routine. I usually find it so hard to wind down and relax. This was an effective and pleasant experience for stress reduction and releasing anxious tension. read more

I've been going to Kate for years now and have always come out impressed with how she is able to make me look. 501 is a beautiful salon in a great local community and every time I go in I get to say hi to Jodi. I can't imagine going anywhere else. read more

I went to 501 Salon based on reviews and location. I selected my stylist based on reviews and can only believe reviews written by friends and not customers. I have an uneven cut impossible to style that I now wear in a ponytail waiting and hoping to grow out. I am a mature woman with a professional job and am horrified by my hair. The salon is nice but it does not make up for a stylist who I believe just graduated hair school and not at the top of her class. So beware of reviews not always accurate. read more

This was my first visit to 501 Salon and it was absolutely wonderful! I had a haircut with Jordan, and I love it! Everyone there was kind, courteous, and professional. It was a truly comprehensive service with several nice, complimentary ad-ons (a neck massage, an infused warm-towel to enhance the conditioner). This is definitely my new go-to salon. I truly can't say enough about the wonderful service and stylist. read more

Kate has been cutting my hair for more than 4 years now. I stayed with her during her moves from two other salons and was excited when she told me she would be opening her own place. Kate really loves her work; it shows through her commitment to her clients and her creative approach to her work. She stays current with the latest styles and is always willing to work with me when I have wanted to explore a new look. Throughout the process of opening her salon you could see the excitement, dedication and passion Kate has for her work and for running her own business. This is evident in the details she put into her salon and her association with Aveda. Kate has surrounded herself with a dedicated and friendly staff which is obvious from the moment you walk through the door. 501 Aveda is a friendly place with a professional staff you will not be disappointed. Definitely need to give them a chance to impress you. read more
