When you run a business, sometimes the smartest move is simply to choose to go above and break your norms of operations-because that kind of integrity is worth more than a thousand reviews. Choice to respond to a color issue reimbursement could have been any easy fix even if that is not something the salon does normally. read more

I love Roar!! It such a vibe in there and the stylist are always so fun to talk to and I always leave feeling extra beautiful with my new hairstyle!! Love coming on Saturdays!! read more

I frequent another salon for my hair care but I come to Roar for my Aveda hair care products. The staff is always super friendly and helpful and they honor my Aveda Pure Privilege card where I can rack up points for free merchandise with my purchases. If you like the flavor of licorice and anise, Aveda has an herbal tea that is fantastic. Roar has a nice, upscale atmosphere and is in a convenient location in Aksarben Village. read more

This place is worth every penny. It's not just a haircut, but a total pampering experience. The moment you walk into the door your greeted warmly and offered something to drink while you wait. The store has a pretty cool vibe that I'd call vintage (new vintage not to be mistaken for old and outdated) It's very warm and inviting. My stylist is Marissa. She always holds an excellent conversation, while always giving me a satisfactory cut. I've ranged from super long ombré to a short bob cut. Regardless of length or color, she gives the time it takes to put fine detail into my hair. To top it off they offer a quick add on service like a peppermint scalp massage (omg! So great) or a hand massage. At the end they'll also rock your new hairdo with a complimentary lip color. They treat you like a queen there. Last thing I want to mention is that it's an Aveda salon so they boast about their natural, eco-friendly products. That's just the cherry on top to make me love them so much! read more

I booked an appointment for a hair cut and balayage with stylist Wynter. I can honestly say that I should have gone to a different salon. The Cut: I had very long hair that was about lower back, layered with a tapered V shape. I wanted to go a bit shorter and showed Wynter where I wanted it cut (it was about 4 inches off). I told her I still wanted the tapered V shape with my hair thinned out and layered. She began to remove some of the length and said she'd add in the layers after doing the balayage. (More on this later). After all was done, my hair was about 3-4 inches shorter than what I showed her. I've always had long hair and preferred it that way. Now, I'm stuck with shoulder length hair (I absolutely hate shoulder length hair). I don't have the tapered V shape I wanted either and wasn't able to get it without cutting my hair even shorter. The Color: I showed her a picture of an ashy brown balayage which she said she was able to do. After 2 hours of "processing" my hair looked no different than my natural dark brown hair. My hair was previously colored from a different salon and had mostly grown out at the roots. The "balayage" Wynter did matched my roots/natural hair color and looked as if I never colored my hair at all. She was very sincere and could tell I was not pleased with the color and offered me to come back for a correction free of charge. I did that and the second visit was no better. She made another successful attempt using a different toner. After 5 hours and almost $200, I have the worst haircut and color ever. My hair is botchy chunks of warm golden tones. The balayage is not seamless and some streaks are more golden than others. It is 100% not like the picture I showed her. Wynter made an honest attempt to recreate the hairstyle I wanted but it its not for me to come back to the salon. I wished she was up front and admitted that she wasn't able to get my haircolor close to the picture I showed her, instead of having me waste 2 days while she toyed around with toner and destroyed my hair. Overall, my experience with this salon was lackluster. I wasn't shown any of the products used like other Aveda salons. I only got a short scalp massage/shampoo on my second visit (this is usually a standard at Aveda salons). Management was not present on either days which I found strange. The only positives were the free mimosa and the $20 discount for new clients. However, neither are worth coming back for. read more

LOVE this salon! From being greeted with a lovely mimosa to having an awesome stylist to leaving with my hair trimmed (not inches taken off, the usual result of going in for a little trim) and perfect bangs- I loved my experience here and will be back soon read more

Started going to Roar last year and absolutely love it! They are great at suggesting hair care products and giving me styling advice. Hair always looks great after, would highly recommend. read more

Marissa was my stylist, but sometimes Brandon would help out as well. I originally went there because I was slowly going blonde and a stylist at another salon turned my hair orange! I was devastated! I thought my blonde dreams were over. (Originally a super dark brunette) But Marissa was able to do a color correction and eventually get me to the full platinum blonde that I wanted to be without destroying my hair. She always gave me honesty when it came to going platinum, the steps to do it, and the damage that may happen. And my hair always looked so beautiful when I left there! The staff is incredible, their prices are reasonable, and it's such a beautiful space. I just moved to Florida, and was truly heartbroken to leave one of the best salons and stylist that I've ever been too. If you are going anywhere else in Omaha, you are wasting your time and money. I've seen almost all their stylist do amazing work, and everyone leaves there feeling and looking AMAZING. Thank you, Roar! :) read more

Great salon! Love the atmosphere and the hairstylists. They are always super sweet and do a great job. Definitely recommend

I've been going to Roar for years and drive from West Omaha to see Brandon. He is amazing! I have lived in many places and am very loyal to a stylist once I find a good one! I go every month for a color, but I also get my hair cut by Brandon and have had a Brazilian Blowout as well. While Brandon does a great job with all the hair services he offers, his color game is top notch! I have very long hair, and my color requires a lot of maintenance, but I receive compliments on my hair regularly. Roar is an Aveda salon with a 1920s theme. What's more, is that they've just instituted "mimosa Saturdays!" I love being a client here! read more

Hands down the best place to go if you need your hair done! Wynter is my go to girl and she is amazing!! The rest of the staff is so awesome as well, I've been satisfied with every single visit!! It's such a fun and inviting establishment, highly highly recommend!! read more

I have been going to Roar for a couple years now. Jacque is an absolute expert at cutting, styling, and working with my very curly hair. I have yet to find another salon where I am so comfortable and happy with my hair. I also recently decided to try a new style and makeup for a special event. And they did an excellent job. Aly styled my hair and it was even better than I planned, a curly fauxhawk that looked perfect. And Winter did my makeup, absolutely stunning job. I highly recommend this salon if you want to feel pampered and welcomed everytime! read more

This salon is wonderful. My experience started the moment I walked in the door with a welcoming smile and an amazing cup of tea! I have been several times and had a few different stylists - and have been pleased with every single one of them. I have requested many different cuts from drastic changes with inches off to just a trim. I have always walked away with an amazing style and the confidence/know how/and products to keep it up at home. I recommend this place to everyone! read more

Roar Beauty Parlor is a gem of a salon. The services are top-notch, the atmosphere is so nice and the people are even better. Marissa is my stylist - we often visit with Brandon, another superb stylist, and the very lovely Lauren. The entire team goes above and beyond to make you feel special (in a genuine way). read more

I've been a customer of Roar Beauty Salon since about the time they opened their location in Arksarben. And even though it's a drive from Bennington to Arksarben (and there are many salons along the way), I have never skipped a haircut with Marissa. What I like about Marissa is that I feel like I learn something new (about my hair) every time. Sounds silly I know, but I don't just want my hair to be cut by an expert - I want to be educated (and made a bit of an expert myself) about what my hair is doing, how to care for it better, how to style it, what products to use, etc. I've been in for a cut before and asked Marissa about a certain style and she has told me that with my hair's natural growing tendencies, it probably won't work. And instead of just telling me, she pulls out mirrors and shows me where my hair naturally grows from. I like the honesty and sincere opinion. Until finding Roar, I never had a haircut where I actually learned something about my hair. Again, sounds silly to want to be educated about your hair but I like that she's the expert and she shares what she sees. I've even called Roar and asked Marissa specific hair questions over the phone and she takes the time for a phone consultation. Who else does that?! Roar is just great. Well worth the drive! read more

Marissa is AMAZING. I ALWAYS leave loving my hair and feel so confident afterwards! She's fun to talk to and so incredibly helpful. When I don't know what I want to do, we work together to figure it out. If you don't have a hair stylist already you need to go to Marissa and she will seriously change your life! She also does an excellent job with eyebrows! Plus Roar Salon is super adorable and the whole staff is always so welcoming! I absolutely love coming here. read more
