    I went to Ash + Oak for the first time today, and I am so glad I did! First things first. My hair looks amazing!! (Note, I am super particular about my hair, and my sister is a stylist in LA so I have high standards!) Thank you, Hannah Dahlgren, for taking the time to listen and work with me to give me the style and color update I had been wanting. I got a partial balayage (after Hannah suggested that I didn't really need a full), root touch up, cut, blow out and curled finish. She is a "junior" stylist but is on her way up! She was not only knowledgeable but friendly and fun. I also had a fabulous wash and head massage by Erin! The entire staff at Ash + Oak is so friendly and the owner even stepped over to say hello and compliment Hannah's work. Next, let's talk salon: gorgeous, trendy, clean and bright. They have a separate room (with a glass door) to hang in when waiting for color to process... it's off to the side with a sofa, coffee maker and Netflix. BRILLIANT! They're easy to find, and ample parking is available with street spots and nearby free public parking lot. After living in the area for 4 years, I have now finally found MY salon, and it's right here in my own town!

    Ash-brown (gray) highlights.  Using Fanola now and then to tone.

    This is a very delayed rating but!!! My overall experience was awesome. The staff were friendly and the salon was beautiful. My hair was done by Kasee and it turned out great! I had initially had gone in for a balayage but because my hair was on the shorter side, Kasee recommended that I get highlights throughout instead. In the end, I'm so glad I took the recommendation because my hair is unique and I have been getting compliments even as it's growing out. Definitely recommend and I would suggest going on their Instagram to see each person's portfolio. Only reason why I didn't give a full 5-star is just because although I appreciated the work and service, I felt like they had their usual customers and majority of the attention was on them. PS. I read something about a goodie bag but either that ended or I think the staff by the counter forgot about the bag you're suppose to get when it's your first time at the salon but that's just complimentary so it wasn't a big deal.

    Before the magic...

    I cannot express how happy I am with my hair after a visit to see Vanessa in their Hampden location. My hair started orangey and mouse-brown. She added vanilla balayage and kept the dark natural lowlights to keep it dimensional. Beautiful cut to add movement. & I love, love the blowout & style. It took two hours and I am a new woman. Finding a stylist who listens, explains, and actualizes your concepts in the way that flatters you best is an amazing find! I truly appreciate Vanessa for her talent & communication. And manager Maggi makes the business & clientele her absolute priority. Beautiful experience & results ladies! See you next visit!

    I booked my appointment with Danielle at the Hampden location. The salon itself is absolutely stunning, incredibly clean and has a soothing aesthetic. Bella at the front desk was friendly and attentive. The teamwork going on in the salon throughout my service was amazing to see, the women who work here are truly respectful of one another and seem like a family. Danielle was amazing. She took her time, made great conversation, and still managed to make me feel important all while balancing other appointments since my service took significantly longer than it was booked for (I am very blonde and my hair takes awhile to lift). I would recommend anyone go see Danielle, she is a master of her craft. And, truly, you could not go wrong with any of the women at this salon (from what I saw). Parking at this location is street parking for free or $2 for up to 5 hours, so incredibly reasonable! I can't wait to go back. Great Covid protocols as well (temperature check at the door, ample sanitizer, relatively good distance between clients).

    Photo of haircut I wanted - and used to have for 15 years. We discussed this photo beforehand and the nice, clean angle.

    I was told by the hairdresser who had cut my much-longer hairstyle that she didn't specialize in the angled bob I wanted to return to ... particularly for my wedding photos ... to please return the next day to have someone who DOES specialize in it cut my hair. I did so and provided multiple photos (3 attached here). We discussed it at length. I left with my hair razor-butchered, uneven and jagged everywhere - rather than nice, clean lines; and with "v's" on the sides by my ears. It looks hideous - not like a $100 salon cut. I went to another hairdresser immediately afterwards, in absolute tears. She was shocked how bad it was and had to butcher off even more just to try to correct the sides. I have a pixie cut at this point. This haircut won't grow out before wedding photos. If you don't know how to do a cut, be HONEST with the customer! And don't blame-shame them when they get teary eyed and politely say "This isn't what I asked for, and doesn't look like the photos at all. I feel ugly." The free haircut doesn't compensate for the damage to my self-esteem or my upcoming photos. I took the high road and left a tip for her time, despite being blame-shamed by not one, but three stylists. Pretty upsetting.

    Bought the "All In One Milk" hair treatment and got some lovely samples too.

    First thing I noticed was that the salon smelled great! It's really spacious and the decor is nice and clean. There's metered street parking or free parking in the back or to the left of the salon for customers. I saw Beth for a trim and color consult. She asked me a few questions to find out what I wanted and then got to work. My hair feels great! I'll be back next week for color. They give first-time customers a 20% coupon to use towards products. I bought the All In One Milk hair treatment that she used on my hair before blow drying, and I got some samples to take home too. Great salon and very nice people! TIP: all the stylists have a Venmo account if you don't have cash for tip. They display the usernames at the reception desk.

    Clip-in extensions, styled by Danielle.

    I moved to Catonsville from Towson about a year ago. I have walked by this salon dozens of times, but have been too intimidated to go in. I have shorter, frizzy red hair and I do not resemble the women who work or come to this salon in any way. I had bought clip in hair extensions online, but could not figure out how to make them look decent. Based on reviews and pictures, I knew this salon could help me. My stylist was Danielle who was so sweet and kind and instantly made me feel welcome and at ease. She also dyed my hair to match the extensions and cut and styled them to help them blend. I'm super satisfied with my experience here and I recommend this place to all my friends.

I truly hit the jackpot when I found Wendy 18 years ago and I can't imagine going anywhere else. She exceeds my expectations and the results are amazing. My hair is naturally black and I get red highlights. Wendy does my highlights without ever bleaching my hair! I also have frizzy hair that is very hard to manage, and getting the keratin treatment has made my life easier on a daily basis and my hair is extremely healthy. I get compliments all the time! She has a real skill and passion for making women feel beautiful and I leave the salon feeling gorgeous every single time. I have since moved to Virginia, but still travel 1.5 hours one way to her salon. You will absolutely love her and her work. You will be treated like a star! She is not just my stylist, but I have a friend for life.

    I came here with terribly damaged and over bleached hair. Tiger stripes instead of natural looking…read morehair. The salon I went to was huge and lots of assistants had their hands on my head/applying chemicals etc. at this salon it is 2 sisters and they are METICULOUS. These girls understand the chemistry of hair color and the biology of good hair. Not to mention very artistic with color application. My last dye job was so bad the color was running in the bowl. These girls undid the damage so beautifully. Went layer by layer and adjusted the color as necessary. Got rid of the orange and put in a nice auburn. I'm not sure how to add before and after photos but they have them. These sisters know what they are doing and they have earned my business for life. PS Nina showed me how uneven my previous cut was, which I had not noticed before. Because the old stylist had flipped the ends when blow drying it, I could not really see the layers. Nina however, with a few snips gave me an incredible haircut. Small change just evened out one layer, which had just been cut at the old salon. but the whole head of hair lay much much better afterwards. Watching them work was impressive.
