Red Salon Organics

First time customer and a very happy one. I was styled cut and colored by Meredith today. She does beautiful work. I was treated very well. I will return and I would definitely recommend this salon.

I just moved to the Richmond area a few months ago. After two lackluster but extremely overpriced visits to another Aveda salon, I made an appointment here. Kimberly listened to everything I said, took my comments seriously, and she did an excellent job. My cut and color look great, and the cost was nearly half what I paid at the other place for cut and color that were not good at all.

I love my hair!!! This was my first time here. I loved how the atmosphere was when I walked into this salon. Everyone gets along and makes you feel like you are one with them. Then I met my stylist (Meredith) and she was so friendly plus funny! She was patient and listened to how I wanted my hair to look like. Granted I never get the exact hairstyle I want but I was optimistic annnnnnnndddd it was worth it!!! I left the salon with more than what I thought I would get. Thank you for the new look! I will stop by again!

Andrea is amazing! She is perfect at doing a natural look with highlights. I highly recommend her for hair coloring and haircuts !

Meredith was able to squeeze me in on super short notice and did an absolutely fantastic job on my hair. I had an asymmetrical bob from another stylist at a different salon which was essentially the product of being conservative on what I actually wanted: an undercut. My bangs didn’t make sense and overall I was disappointed from the other salon. I showed Meredith a couple pictures and she worked with my hairline to give me exactly what I want. I’m ecstatic with the results and won’t be going to anyone else.

After moving to the Richmond area this summer I was searching for a new go-​to hair salon. I had a couple of horrible haircuts and then made an appointment at Red Salon. Andrea did an amazing job and before she even dried my hair I could see the difference. They were pretty booked when I made my initial appointment so plan accordingly. It was worth the wait!

I needed a new hair cut/​style before a friends wedding and I was looking around Unilocal and I found Red Salon Organics.
I almost always get my haircut at Hair Cuttery which is your run of the mill/​average hair cut places. They don’t do a great job and they don’t do a terrible job either. But after going to Red Salon Organics, I want to keep going to Salons who actually have Master Stylists and hair cutters who really know their stuff.
My stylist was named Wendy. She was awesome! There was a small consultation right before the cut and she seemed to know exactly what I wanted even though my desciption may have been ahem vague. She is only one of two hair stylists where I have actually carried on a lengthy conversation with because I was that confident with her skills. Usually I dont peep a word b/​c I don’t want to distract them and end up messing my hair. haha.
This places has an upstairs and downstairs. Just a SN, this place does cater to primarily women but they do have a couple of stylists that are trained to cut men’s hair as well. It was $ 30 for a mens cut, shampoo and styling which is more than what I normally pay for but I know I got a high quality cut and service.

I had a horrible haircut at this salon. I visited the salon due to the positive Unilocal reviews but was very disappointed with the results. I have very fine, medium length hair. The stylist, Andrea, used a razor on my hair, cutting layers as short as one inch. For almost 3 months, I had ¹⁄₃^rd of my hair sticking straight up and had to get a keratin treatment as well as another haircut to fix the mess. I do not recommend Andrea for hair cuts.

I’m so glad I found this salon on Unilocal!Andrea did a fantastic job with my cut and color. I took a photo with me of the style I wanted and when done, it looked even better than the photo!
I may not get to go back since I’m only in Richmond for a short time… and that’s a bummer because it was my best cut ever.

5 stars, no hesitation!!! Autumn is the best! I started seeing Autumn over a year ago after another hairdresser totally botched my color. I had recently had a surgery which caused my body to react differently to the color, which my previous hairdresser did not take the possibility of these hormonal changes into account. After a horrifying attempt at color correction by my previous hairdresser, I searched and searched for the right person to fix the issue. In my research, I found Autumn, who cared about the environment, was privy to how health issues can impact hair/​hormones and is specially trained in color correction. She did not disappoint!!!
From my first appointment with her, I loved her vibe. She is hilarious, positive and in tune with what is important to each person. She listened to my concerns about my color issues following my recent surgery and she knew exactly how to get my desired result. From my first color treatment with her — my hair has been completely PERFECT!!! I have received oodles of compliments on my hair since she started coloring and trimming it. Oh and have I mentioned that she is the bang queen?!! She can give you the most killer bangs imaginable, no matter what style…
The salon is modern, environmentally friendly, chic, fun and the perfect size (think boutique salon, not a crazy circus). They also carry a wide range of Aveda products (as well as a small selection of locally handmade jewelry). Prices are in line with excellent services received. Highly recommend!!!

I rarely write reviews, but I saw Andrea today and she did such an outstanding job on my hair I had to write this review.
She pretty much had to do «reconstructive surgery «on my badly colored and cut blonde hair, she literally brought my hair back to life! I finally found a stylist I can count on! Worth every penny!

Couldn’t have been happier with my experience here! These stylists do high-​quality work in a cozy atmosphere. Andrea gave me a PERFECT subtle ombré color and a trim. Expect to shell out some money and be there for a few hours, but you definitely get what you pay for here. It was worth every penny for me. I’ll definitely be back. Thanks, ladies!

Andrea made my hair perfect!!! My hair is very long and I have a really simple cut to it, but for some reason I never found a stylist that could get it just right. Well Andrea is absolutely amazing and she knew EXACTLY what I wanted without me saying anything. She just kind of fixed it. She is also the styling queen and showed me how to style my hair to look like a picture that I showed her. When I walked in and took a seat (I was 15 minutes early), I watched her work on another client with very long, very thick hair. She did a beautiful job with that client, as well!
Andrea is also a really cool and fun person and I really think she excels at her work because she cares that the client is happy. I moved to Richmond from Fredericksburg 8 months ago and I’ve finally found my Richmond hair stylist! I’m getting married this fall and I’m definitely going to ask her to style my hair for my wedding.
Don’t balk at the prices. In fact, $ 50 is on the low end for long hair in RVA. So I just spent the extra money on some new Aveda shampoo and conditioner :)
Also, to all of the ladies at Red Salon Organics, your customer service is just superb! I know customer service, and that is how it is done… Kudos!

I just had my first appointment for cut and color with Autumn. Now, I do understand that this salon is not cheap, but there’s something to be said about charging what you are worth…
I have never gotten my hair lightened and was curious about exploring ombré options for my extremely dark brown hair. Autumn is very realistic in how she consults with you and will let you know if something really just isn’t possible or how to expect your results. In any case, I was really happy with the results and even happier after my follow up appointment for toner and now I’m overjoyed! My hair is so cute it’s actually a bit of a distraction. The cut looks super cute now, but I can tell it will still look cute as it is growing longer in a couple months. I appreciate this b/​c it shows Autumn was listening when I said I tend to be lazy about making regular appointments and am somewhat fickle about hair length.
All in all, I’d say if you want fabulous, daring color, this salon is so far the best I’ve seen in town.

Found my new stylist! **Andrea is amazing**!!!
Recently moved to RVA from DC and was nervous about starting with a new salon. I had a few photos and she asked great questions to clarify what I liked about the color, style, cut etc.
I have thin/​baby fine hair a little longer then shoulder length… I asked for a warm up from my natural base and subtle ombré. Andrea delivered! The color is really beautiful with a soft ombré hi-​light. She also took extra time to consult and help me understand the different curl types you can achieve with a curling wand.
In short: nice cozy salon, very professional, fun — -delivered excellent service
Thank you so much!

I’m new to the Richmond area, and after reading the great reviews on Red Salon, I decided to book an appointment for an all-​over color. My only piece of advice is to make sure to book in advance! This wasn’t a problem for me and honestly only made me feel better about the salon. I figured full popularity means high quality! I was not disappointed by Red Salon.
While small, this salon is amazing. From the moment I stepped in, I was treated wonderfully by the entire staff. I had my hair colored by Wendy and she gave me exactly what I wanted. After being blonde for quite a while I wanted to go back to a dark auburn shade and it came out amazing. I’m definitely going to book another appointment with Wendy soon for a pretty drastic hair cut! Once again, I cannot recommend this salon enough!

I recently moved to Richmond and was in search of a new salon. I am very picky when it comes to my hair and my stylist. After much research, I decided to give Red Salon a visit. I am glad I did. I booked an appointment with Autumn after stopping in to see the place. I was helped immediately. I told them what I was seeking and they recommended her based on her experience. (she is the owner of the salon too!) I was only able to get in 1.5 months away! I guess that speaks to her popularity. However, I was placed on a waiting list and was able to get in earlier than my original appointment because of a cancellation. Autumn was great! She listened, suggested, and really took the time to get to know her client. My color looks great and is exactly what I wanted. My cut is fantastic too. I will become a regular for Autumn.

I had went to another salon for years till my hairdresser moved. I read the great reviews for Red on here. I called and they gave me an appt the next week. I have almost waist length hair. I went in and saw Wendy. She listened to me and I must have talked about what to do for my new sprout of gray hair. For my long hair full foil highlights, cut, blow dry, and style was $ 175. Can I even tell you how much money I saved??? I have paid over 200 for the past 5 years. My hair looks great and the other women I saw walking out looked great too!

Found my salon!
Meredith is amahzing (requires spoken pronunciation for the full effect).
She really KNOWS hair. For example, I came in to Red Salon with over-​processed (read: bleached highlights from another salon), dry and brittle hair. After one consultation, a cut, and a take-​home Aveda deep conditioning treatment (she never pushes product; I asked, she answered, and I followed), my hair is noticeably softer, fuller, and healthier. I go on the regular now… first time in my life that I routinely I set-​up my next appointments when I leave. She’s a busy lady and my hair needs its fix.
They’re fun, cool women, too. Never exorbitant prices. Always fantastic results.

Love, love Red Salon! Autumn is the best.
I just moved to Richmond from D.C. and was worried about finding a good salon since I am one of those gals that takes several tries to find the right stylist. A co-​worker recommended Autumn and I couldn’t have been happier. She gives a great cut and doesn’t let you get stuck in a rut with the same style. She also offers a complementary bang trim in between cuts… perfect for people like me who sometimes try to cut their own bangs, yes, i know… bad bad!
Give them a try!
