The Mitchell Wade Salon

I’ve been going to Mitchell Wade Salon for years and have used several of their stylists… can’t go wrong with any of them. Colin, however, has been a great recent addition to their team! He takes all my hair dreams & turns them into reality. Extremely detail oriented & truly passionate about his work. 100% would recommend.

My wife and I had been using quick cuts places for hair cuts for a while. No complains with those, but she decided to look for a salon and landed on Michell Wade Salon via the web. It proved to be a great choice. They offered Saturday appointments, which was convenient. Colin gave us both great hair cuts, and the entire setting was great. We were offered coffee, and everyone was pleasant the entire time. It really is a perfect choice, and we’ll be going back.

I’ve been going here for years for monthly facials and hair coloring and styling. This salon is very professional and I’ve had fantastic results. It seems like they spend a good bit of time on training and continuous education. They are on the pricy side but I’ve found that it’s worth it. I have to book about 6 weeks in advance to get an evening appointment with my stylist.

The only salon I will ever let touch my hair as long as I live in Orlando.
I’ve been going to Mitchell Wade since the beginning. Karen has been my stylist as long as I’ve been going to a salon. She gave me my first real hair cut (prior to that it was just trims from my mother). Actually, she has been the stylist for my mother and I since before Mitchell Wade even existed. Probably 12 years for me at this point. Even when I was away at college, I always scheduled my hair appointments around when I was going to be home so I could avoid getting a haircut anywhere but MW.
Reasons I love this place:
1. Karen is an amazing stylist. And not only that, she’s just an all-​around awesome person. She really makes it an awesome and pleasant experience. She remembers her clients and is always up for catching up over a haircut. It’s like having a girlfriend as a stylist.
2. The rest of the MW family is awesome as well! I’ve occasionally had others style my hair for special occasions like prom and such. And they’re also friendly and fantastic at what they do.
3. You can tell Mitch really loves what he does and values his staff and his customers. This place feels like family.
MW is a little pricey when compared to other salons but it is well worth it in my opinion. Until the time comes that I move away, I will never go anywhere else.

I am a new customer to this Salon and wanted to try a few services before I reviewed. This Salon SPOILS you. As you walk in you are greeted by the friendly receptionist asking if you need a something to drink. Then you are walked back to the lady that will wash your hair. My scalp is still singing Hallelujah. They give you a nice scalp massage as you are sitting in the massage chair with your feet up. I don’t want my hair wash to end. I got my hair cut by Mitch, originally, and I could not ask or want a better cut. He listened to what I needed and wanted. I got so many compliments on my hair. Then I went back to get my hair highlighted by Lyndsey. I won’t lie I get a little nervous when it comes to highlights. She did an amazing job. Not only did the highlights look amazing, natural the were the best I have gotten, I felt like we were old friends. Mitch finished the job with another amazing hair cut. I am so happy my neighbor told me about The Mitchell Wade Salon. They are friendly, listen and truly care about their clients new and old.

It’s hard to find a good hair stylist that really listens to your needs & creates what you want with an artistic spin! Colin showed me that I can be blonde without having the old school 90’s stripey head, full of highlights. He used the Flamboyage technique with tape paper and I’m absolutely obsessed with it. I’ve never had so many compliments on my hair color! I was sick Of my long bleach blonde hair we decided to cut off 4 inches and created a sexy lob. He’s amazing at cutting fun and edgy looks. You can find his work on Facebook. Colin Stuart is amazing! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair! The salon has a really cool upscale vibe, doesn’t feel like the normal boring salons in Oviedo. Almost feels like New York when you head upstairs (elevator or stairs) to the salon. Fun wine store downstairs to grab a bottle on your way out!

I had an absolutely terrible experience with this company. I was verbally bullied by the «owner» and was told to not come back. I went in and got my hair dyed and unfortunately it didn’t come out right. The color was uneven and blotchy. But it wasn’t a problem, I’ve been going for years and it just needed to be dyed again. So I went in and my hair dresser dyed my hair again. I went to leave and they told me I needed to pay $ 30 because they blow dried my hair so that they could see the color. I’m sorry, even though I know this policy, I am not paying for this service as it is not my fault the color did not come out correctly. «After a hair dye, no one is allowed to leave with wet hair» however they make you pay to get it blow dried and the receptionist told me the opposite of this statement. Doesn’t make any sense! I would have felt better about this, if my hair dresser would have made me aware of this process today instead of just blow drying my hair without any notification of price. I was under the assumption this was all corrective and that I was not to be charged. Anyway, I was speaking politely and respectfully to the receptionist and the owner comes out of no where and starts yelling at me saying to start walking to the back so that we can wet my hair again because I don’t want to pay for the blow dry I already received. That is beyond rude and not good customer service. As an owner you should have a level head and be able to speak kindly and make the situation better not worse. The situation was fine and under control until she stepped in. She never asked me for my reasoning or why I thought that I would not be charged. She immediately started yelling at me. These are greedy and disrespectful people. And to top it off, I said that I was so unhappy that I wouldn’t be coming back and the owner said «good!». Awesome, glad I gave thousands of my dollars to assholes!

I have been going to Mitchell Wade Salon for years and have been transformed every time I walk in. I’m always impressed by the staff, state of the art equipment, and great styles from cuts to color. My whole family goes to see Eneith or MW himself and I get complements all the time on my hair. I feel like the staff is a family and they are always finding new innovative ways to keep the salon up to style. They have this great beauty bar up front for waxing and make up! If you don’t live in the Oviedo area, it’s worth a trip. Come pamper yourself! I don’t ever plan on leaving this salon, it’s family!

Excellent, high quality salon with top notch stylists and excellent service… there are a variety of excellent stylists to suit different ages and personalities. I love Delores and Valerie, and both always make time for me when I need to be seen quickly for a special event. I“ve been to many «top» salons in Orlando, but this is the only one whose stylists are really worth something. After years of bad hair, I finally made the switch to The Mitchell Wade Salon, and I“ve been a loyal client now for almost 4 years.

I’ve been going to the Mitchell Wade Salon for about 8 years now, and it has been awesome! My stylist, Delores, is sweet as can be and she is someone that’s willing to go with my crazy ideas (from a mohawk to going from brunette to blonde) and she’s also willing to put in her 2 cents when she doesn’t think something is going to look good. I love that I have someone who gives me a great opinion that I can trust.
Though the prices are a little high, a lot of salons can be if you want quality. I dyed my hair out of a box for so long that it was falling out like crazy, and now I never have that issue after I do a drastic change. If you’re looking for a high quality salon and don’t mind shelling out some extra cash, I’d check this place out. There are a number of different stylists who can fit different personalities, I think that may be what some of the other reviewers have had issues with, but once you find a good one it’s unlikely you’ll want to let them go!
If you’re looking for a good eyebrow waxer, Rikki is awesome and has been doing mine for about a year. She always listens and isn’t afraid to do a touch up if you’re unhappy with how they look, something I’ve always worried about with previous waxers.
I definitely recommend Mitchell Wade Salon, everyone is always super friendly and I love grabbing complimentary cookies throughout my appointment!

First off let me say my experience here was so bad that here I am over a year later still upset enough to write about it.
I went in to get a big deal makeover, I had been in and out of the hospital for months and wanted to look as great as I felt on the inside. I was excited because we had just moved to FL and having no idea about local salons I heard a neighbor talking about her stylist. When I made my appointment the next week I was informed (by an incredibly rude British accented receptionist) that that she no longer worked there. No big deal right? I’m new here let’s be crazy and give it a whirl, I deserved some pamper time after all I was recovering from! So I went in, immediately the attitude off the receptionist was so intense you could feel her eyes burning through your soul, judgment passed and all. I sat down after being made to feel ashamed just for having the nerve to walk in (I am not even kidding, I hope she was just having a super bad day). Maybe I did look horrible or something, however in my defense I had been in the hospital for weeks and not been able to sit through any salon work in months before that. Either way she felt compelled to humiliate me by making sure I knew that the cost of even just a hair cut before she bothered letting my stylist know I was there in front of the other women sitting waiting their turn as well. A this point I was questioning if I would be allowed back without a credit card deposit or something, maybe my first born child’s soul for the privilege of being allowed past the desk? You would expect an insanely amazing caliber of stylist to be on the other end of this by now, well at least I expected someone who could cut and color basic everyday requests at the very least… nope. Not this trip. My stylist was a very kind man. He assured me no problems with my request, this is what I did, hold onto your hats because it’s CRAZY. I died my hair… brown. That’s right, brown. Only my hair wasn’t brown when I left. It was very… off brown. mud if you will. I was assured it would be 100% after another wash in the morning. So I stayed calm because I expected the best when I was paying so much. That did not happen, my hair was not only muddy orange on top after the wash the next morning but it was a totally different shade for the bottom half of my hair! I went in with light brown hair and some gray strands at 2″ of roots. Nothing crazy, not a color change really just wanted to cover the gray strands and make it look Heath and shiny. Instead I got a multi colored mess. Then when I called in and was not even a little bit rude (what good would that do, I just wanted it fixed) the lovely accent informed me they were full and to come the day after. Last I checked customer service is still important to other salons, not like I asked for instant fix, just at some point that day so I didn’t look like I dipped my hair in something. Nope. I went a few days after and the guy was not happy, surprise, surprise to see me again. I promise you I was nothing but smiles and apologies because I just wanted my hair fixed. He very quickly slapped a much darker color onto my head without caution and while my hair was now all one color it was MUCH darker then I wanted. Dark brown that looked red in the light. I was not nearly happy but still not rude even once, despite the fact I now also have hair dye stains all over my forehead, neck and ears. Not the usual bits but large stains (will upload photos when I get home tomorrow) all over my cheeks, and everything. The kicker for me was when I was getting my hair rinsed and heard him say to another stylist that he was sure he wouldn’t even be getting a tip this time. I tipped him more than I should have the first day because as we all know there can be no better thing on any occasions than a stylist that loves their client, of course I wanted to have a positive start and let it be known I appreciate the work.
This was such a negative experience and yet I gave it more tries! I didn’t call it quits despite the overpricing and rude stylists, we all know one bad experience can be random so I hoped it was. I took my teenage daughter in and her stylist was wonderful, she did a great job on her hair, I was happy but then the bill came and it was not remotely what we were quoted. I had also opted to give it another chance and my hair was cut into choppy, really awful layers put in when I was very clear I wanted the layers to be very long and to not cut any of it shorter than chin length. My hair was cut so short on top I looked like I was aiming for a Billy Ray Cyrus look. I gave up on this place after that. The pricing should reflect a professional and trained staff and when I was there it did not.

My daughters cheer team had a basket raffle and I won a basket. When I opened it and saw a 30 dollar gift card inside for this place I knew it would never be used. Its sitting in a drawer gathering dust.

Just had my last haircut with Dena. I’m going to miss her! :(
The entire staff here is very friendly and I’ve never had a bad hair cut in the 3 years I’ve been going to this salon. Sign up with their email list to get promotions, deals, and coupons; however, all of their services are very reasonable even without coupons. Also, right now they’re promoting pink hair extensions ($ 10 each piece) to support Breast Cancer Awareness!

I’m the first to review the Mitchell Wade Salon and I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it. I have been going to this salon for over 5 years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else.
My hair dresser, Delores, is absolutely amazing — I love her! She is great at giving advice on what may or may not look good (if you’re looking for that), she is super friendly, funny, and she might even sing for you if you’re nice to her :) She always does a great job on my hair — I always get compliments on the cut and color.
Delores is not the only friendly one, but the ENTIRE staff is friendly. They all know you by name (enter Cheers theme song), are attentive to your needs (always bringing water, coffee, cookies, soda — whatever you need), and is overall plain ol’ awesome.
I love this place, and if you’re looking for a new salon (hair, nails, whatever you want) or even just to switch it up, definitely give them a shot.
