    Such a cool salon, I would get there an hour early just to be able to hang out there. Service was amazing, I had Sarah. I will definitely be going back.

    Worst hair salon experience I've ever had. I'd rather go back to supercuts at least they fuck my shit up at a reasonable price and not damn near $40. Green hair lady was rude, unprofessional, and cocky as fuck. I honestly don't know how she got certified, and she doesn't even know how to listen to her customer because "she knows what she's doing". Not coming back to a salon that employs such arrogantly unskilled and childishly behaved people-- and you shouldn't either.

    Ughh what's this???

    I chose Tristan as my stylist based on pictures she posted of her work on Instagram. I came in with silver-ish hair with a blue hue. Asked to strengthen the silver and get rid of brassiness. She focused on removing the blue, chose not to bleach my naturally black hair and simply applied a toner unto my ends. She claimed that would lighten it enough to get me back to silver. When she was done, my hair was brown/copper. I texted her letting her know of my dissatisfaction and her response was "I never promised you silver... if you want you can come back in and I can try bleaching your hair if you want"... ummm, why wasn't that done to begin with?? I was so disgusted by her lack of ownership and her attitude about it at that. Any other stylist would've aimed to make it right. This lady instead blocked me on Instagram and washed her hands. Guess she was too embarrassed to confront the situation. A week later I went to another stylist to fix what Tristan had done and by simply doing baby highlights on my hair AND BLEACHING IT, got me back to a beautiful silver color. Needless to say, I won't be returning and wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

    Very Impressed... Ashton listened to what I wanted and was able to get it done. Over great job!!

    Nikki and I, she's a total badass..

    -Skip to the bottom for the quick summary.!!- After finding most places busy this week because of Mother's Day, I had to leave behind my usual hair place and find something good fast.. I like to carefully research places before going there and the Velvet Monkey had good reviews and so I decided to place a call for an appointment.. Let me just say, from the beginning with that phone call, I felt like I mattered and was going to be well taken care of.. But don't let me get ahead of myself, the woman on the phone got me the soonest available appointment she could and it worked wonderfully with my busy schedule.. I arrived and was walking aimlessly around the Plaza (because I somehow missed the big sign), until two women walked up to me and asked if I was looking for the Velvet Monkey, one of them happened to be Nikki, my stylist.! I had made the appointment to change my now blonde, originally grey, streaks into fully platinum hair, and from the beginning until the end Nikki kept up conversation and kept me in on what she was doing to my hair at every step.. I'm happy I had her, my hair turned out really nice.! Nikki made a good experience into a great one.. (I didn't mean to bore, but honestly this place was wonderful and Nikki and the other staff were more than welcoming, I got what I was looking for and I definitely would come back and do it all again.!)

    Bleach spot close to scalp. Definitely not ombre or balayage. Hair done by Kara Moss.

    I came in to get an ombre with Kara Moss. After showing her a picture of what I wanted, she explained that instead of an ombre, it was a balayage style. What I got was none of the two. The color came out wrong, and I had weird bleach spots close to my scalp (see attached picture). Kara promised I could come back and she'd fix it (since I was getting my hair done for my wedding) and gave me her card. I called and texted to schedule a fix. Kara never replied or returned my calls and texts. I paid her the full $150 and even added on a 35% tip because she promised to fix it. If I was a difficult customer, I'd understand her hesitance to return my calls. But I was civil, honest, came in with a picture of what I wanted, and tipped her well. I chose this salon since it seemed well-rated and respectable. I'm walking away from this experience feeling disappointed and cheated. Pick any hairdresser aside from Kara Moss.

    Special thank you to Nikki at the plaza location for fixing my hair! She took the time to listen to what I wanted, and knew so much about hair color for skin tone etc. My hair looks amazing and I could not be happier! Thank you so much Nikki

    Absolutely love this place! Love the atmosphere and the location even though parking can suck a little depending on the time of day. The stylist and receptionists are always so friendly and they use the best products. I see Sophie regularly and she is always 100% down to do any fun colors I have in mind and she's always so happy! I couldn't go anywhere else in Oklahoma.

For me it's a treat and a bit of a splurge, but I appreciate every last drop so I think it's okay. I had acne all through my 20's, and MAC was the only makeup that provided enough cover without looking like pancake makeup, so I'm eternally grateful and fiercely loyal. I don't know where they find the folks who work here, but I feel like I want to know everyone who works there, just for a glimpse into their lives. Like where do they hang out? What bar do these guys, gals, and guys who are sometimes dressed as gals go for a cocktail? I want to go to there. And you'll never know if they really like you or not, because they always behave as if doing your eye makeup while you tell them about your upcoming special night out is exactly what they want to be doing. I'd add a fifth star if Dillard's could figure out how to make the lighting better over there. It's hard to tell if you really love that shade or not in that yucky light. Remember to keep your little MAC boxes until you are certain you love everything about that new product. They're super cool about returns, but you'll need to have the box with that ever-important yellow UPC sticker. Also, save your empty containers (lipstick tubes, foundation bottles, eyeshadow caes) and when you six, take them in for MAC's recycling program and select a free lipstick. That's got to be one of the best recycling programs I know of. I have lots of MAC lipstick but rarely do I actually pay for one.

Connie is the receptionist and would be your main contact (but she's also so much more!) and she is on top of her game! Because of her, everything went so smoothly for the bridal trials and planning last year for my wedding that I couldn't believe it. Kelsey and Andrea did my hair and makeup for my wedding in August 2021 (photos included) and I could not have been that happy with anyone else! For bridal/bridal party makeup and hair, this is the only place that you want to go, I promise. I had tried two other makeup/hair artists before MarloHaus while planning my wedding; both appointments I walked out of in tears. Then I found this magical place! Everyone at MarloHaus made me feel beautiful and special. That still makes me feel SO good. A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to get an appointment for a make-up lesson from the owner herself, Toni Marlo. She is amazing at what she does and she's so much fun to talk to! If you're looking for private makeup lessons this is definitely the right place to go. Thank you so much MarloHaus!!
