Salon Olines

I have returned to Michelle several times since my review and I still receive the same amazing consistency. Every time I leave I walk out feeling amazing about my hair! I absolutely love her and recommend her!

Love. Love. Love! The only one that has done my hair and both my daughters hair is Penelope. She is just fabulous!

Olines is one of those little neighborhood businesses you hope to like and support. But this is the second time my appointment has been screwed up. First time, ok. It happens. But today, Esmerelda (the owner, I think!) meekly let me know after a fifteen minute wait that Michelle was running behind. After 40 minutes, I just left. Michelle never came over to apologize or say the appointments got messed up or anything. Nothing. Even if it somehow was my fault and she needed to reschedule, at least extend the courtesy of speaking to me. Although honestly, I’ve never had it happen at other salons — that I got the appointment time wrong. I have two other salons I use, with zero problems. No problems ever. So I’ll take my money to another newer, shinier neighborhood place or out of the neighborhood altogether, unfortunately. And offer this lesson in this review: if you call a salon on a Thursday and can get in on a Saturday afternoon — bad sign, right?

I have called three times during normal business hours and no one picks up the phone. I finally got ahold of someone and «the system was down to book an appointment». They took my number and said they would call me back but didn’t. I’m potential customer that wants to give you money, seriously? Don’t waste your time.

The salon is in a great location. It is clean but keeps a fun/​funky décor similar to the area it’s in. The atmosphere is extremely inviting and unpretentious. The stylists I interacted with have all been very friendly and well put together (this detail might seem unimportant but if I’m trusting someone to cut, style and/​or color my hair it is reassuring to see that they have good taste themselves).
Esmeralda, who did my hair both times I visited, is an exceptional hairdresser/​stylist/​person and also happens to be the owner of the salon. She has a very kind and humble demeanor, and is very patient. She took the time to talk through what I wanted. Esmeralda has a good sense of how to make hair look great while making it appear natural and effortless.
One of the other stylists Dominique, who I have seen in action each time I have been there, is what I would call a «blond connoisseur.» Ladies if you are looking to go blond for the summer this is your girl!
As for me, I am mixed and have long, extremely curly brown hair with immense body. I leave it curly most of the time and a few times each year I have it flat ironed (which doesn’t usually last long because the humidity gets to it pretty quickly).
A few weeks ago I started doing some research on the Brazilian Blowout vs. Karetine treatment vs. a Japanese straitening treatment. I was looking for something to tame my mane while also conditioning it. Considering I didn’t want to permanently get rid of my curls or do anything to damage my hair, the original Brazilian Blowout seemed to be the best option.
I compared different salons online and called a bunch however I was a little bit deterred when quoted $ 300 and up for the Brazilian treatment alone and was told that if my hair was past my shoulders it would be even more… esh I thought. That seemed a bit steep to me. Other salons said they only did the Karitine treatment where you can’t wash your hair for days after. I read that this treatments does more harm than good. Finally, I found Salon Olines online and spoke with Esmerelda on the phone before my appointment. She reassured me that it would simply soften my curls and reduce the frizz and she quoted me a very reasonable price. So I took the appointment and I had a Brazilian Blowout and haircut.
After the blowout, the frizz was literally gone and I was able to keep my hair style for days after. Once I did let it go natural again, my curls were still present just a little less curly at the root and in the front of my head. My hair is more manageable, less frizzy and somewhat weighed down. Just what I needed!
After my first appointment I referred one of my girlfriends to Esmeralda and she had an Ombré coloring done that she absolutely loves!!!
Last week I had my hair highlighted and flat ironed. I am very happy with the outcome. I had not put any color or highlights in my hair for years and wanted to keep it looking natural while adding a little flair. Mission accomplished!
I have posted a few pics of my hair so you can see for yourself. I hope this review is helpful. Do check this place out, I’m sure you will be happy you did!

Great hair and color by Michele. Love the area its in. Good prices. Flexible schedule.

I will start by saying that the star represents my experience with attempting to redeem a groupon and not hair services themselves. I’m sure they do a great job as seen in their reviews. My initial contact was bad enough that I wouldn’t go through with my appointment.
I purchased a groupon to get my hair done right up the street at Salon Olines. The groupon was for a blow out. I called to redeem and thought I would mention that my hair is thick and wavy (I had just gotten a really snazzy cut!). It seems there is an extra charge for that. The fine print on groupon merely mentions if you have longer hair that you would be charged an extra fee. Needless to say, I have requested a refund from groupon. I don’t have time to haggle with any business that has rules and fine (misleading) print. If you can’t do wavy hair, or it’s more work or product to do long hair – just be specific and forthcoming. So the complaint is not that you can’t do all hair types, it’s that you used the old «hook & bait» tactic. Not to mention, the young lady on the phone implied I would need more work than just a round brush blow out. Hmmm… no one else has any problems and mind you, we are over the phone? Way to go to win over new clients!
No worries, I have a huge feeling I dodged the bullet. I will just wait until I can go to my normal stylist, who by the way can do ALL types of hair and charges the same no matter how long, short, wavy, fine, thick, processed, etc… your hair is. Nice to sit down and know exactly what you will pay AND be pleased with the results. Just sayin

Love this place! Always good service and great cuts/​colors! I recommend this salon for all your hair treatment needs!

I went in to get my hair cut! AND OMG I LOVED MY HAIR! ANDY IS WHO I RECOMMEND!!! (He cut my hair) IT was a great experience and its a great price! Everyone is welcoming and its a beautiful salon very clean and the environment is fun! My hair came out way better than what it was and the cut was perfect! just want i wanted!

I was a walk in with clip in hair extensions, and they recommended Alba, and I couldn’t have been happier with the result. She cut my hair, then put the extensions in (in a more secure manner than I had known how to do) then cut the extensions to blend in seamlessly with my hair. I guarantee no one can tell I am wearing extensions!
I don’t know the other stylists, but highly recommend Alba.

Great salon in the Bishop Arts! Just moved to the area and bought a Groupon ISO a new salon and hair stylist. I had Andy, who is young, but very personable and educated. The salon is clean and modern. Overall I had a great experience and received lots of compliments on my new haircut! Will return for my next cut!

I was walking around Bishop Arts yesterday window shopping and happened across this salon. There was a sign that they accept walk ins and I have been needing a haircut, so I decided to try them out. I haven’t yet found a salon/​hairdresser in Dallas that I love, so I had been putting off getting a trim. I didn’t look at the price list beforehand and figured that the worst situation could be that they charged me $ 100 or so… Haircut was awesome, great blowout, I didn’t feel pressured to buy any of their products (I HATE when a salon tries to sell you more things), and it ended up being $ 45. I took a price list with me and it says a cut/​blowout for women is $ 55, so not sure if the hairdresser charged me less because I was a new client or they have different prices for different stylists, but it was a pleasant surprise. It was an awesome experience and I would definitely recommend this salon to others!
