Hair-O-Smith
Hair-O-Smith was born 11 years ago from a whole lotta love for hair, and a passion for rock n roll. Always based in NE MPLS, but quickly we gained a name for ourselves as wig stylists, which took us on location to local theaters and national music tours. Our move into our Johnson St. backstage studio is our way of refining not only the salon aesthetics, but your salon experience.

Come as you are, all our clients are VIP guests. We believe in quality over quantity, and are excited to reveal our new luxury line from R+Co, R+Co Bleu.

I saw Stefanie here, she did an amazing job listening to what I wanted and catering the haircut to what I wanted and keeping within my ability to style. The salon is very accessible with my wheelchair and the staff was super accommodating.

I could have sworn I wrote a review for this place already but apparently not! My bad, cause this place is THE coolest. I mean, who doesn't like sipping a PBR (or La Croix if that's your jam) and listening to rock music while gettin your hair did?

I've been coming to Hair-O-Smith regularly since April 2018, when I decided to do my side shave and having already had my first positive experience the previous July when I did a simple trim and dye to hide those pesky grays for a wedding I was in.

Alison has been my gal and she's awesome. We usually just do a monthly touch up on

I've never found a hair stylist that I've felt 100% comfortable with till now. Kennedy has answered all my hair prayers. She is as excited as I am to try new things with my hair. I'm glad I found her and you will be too.

Had my hair done by Kennedy today- she is so super nice and the hair turned out great! The salon is cute and funky with rock memorabilia all over and good music playing. Highly recommended- prices are very fair!

I've never been a huge fan of going in to get my hair cut; not sure why, I've just never really found a place that 'clicked' with me. I cycle through super long hair (we're talking 20"+), and super short hair, which I always just kind of did myself (looking back on it, it wasn't good haha), but after a few years of long hair, I was ready for a big chop again, and decided to try this place for a super-short cut. I'm in love! Kennedy did an AMAZING job, it's the most comfortable I've ever felt in a salon. I'm really excited to keep seeing

I had been going to the same salon in NE Minneapolis for the past five years when my stylist jacked up her prices.

It was time for a change, and boy am I ever glad I went to Hair-O-Smith! First things first- I'm offered a beer when I sit down. After a long day at work, those were the most magical words in the world. The atmosphere is fun and has a great rock and roll vibe.

I go to Steph A. and she has been wonderful! We always have fun while she's doing my hair and she totally understands what I want in a cut (usually before I do!). I've always been a long hair kind of girl but

Hair-O-Smith is a hidden gem! I've been going to Stephanie for about 3 months now and I am overjoyed with the results. so many women ask me where I go and who I see there and I tell them, "Stephanie at Hair-O- Smith - and tell her Kala referred you!" Steph takes her time with you and makes sure you're 100% satisfied with the results before you walk out the door. She's a true professional & lots of fun to chat with!
Thank you Hair-O-Smith and Steph for making me look and feel glamorous!

I knew when Leesa offered me a beer while doing my hair that I'd found my rockNroll salon--just kidding! Kinda.
Actually, my 8 yr old daughter (at the time) found them. I was having an art show next door in the gallery, Altered Asthetics (that's how they spell it, not a mistake on my part). Anyway, Stephanie had invited my little wide-eyed budding-hairNmakeup artist/fashionista child, who was bored and had wandered out into the hallway to gaze into their very cool looking rocked-out salon, to talk! Wow!
I had once asked someone (at Jungle Red, might as well be truthful--she's no

This is now my go to hair place. this says is a lot as I live over an hour away.

I really wanted to try a keratin treatment but didn't want to commit to either the price for the full one nor the length of time it would last in case I didn't like it. My hair is kinda half wavy, half frizzy and totally dry. And as I have colored it since going gray at age 8, anything can happen.

Hair-0-smith offers what I haven't seen anywhere else- the opportunity to get essentially a mini keratin treatment- to sample it to see if its for you at WAYYY less than a full price treatment.. I was

Stef, can you move to NYC?

Before I moved, I had been going to Stefanie for about 6 years. She was fantastic and always was helpful in suggesting a good cut when I wanted to do something new with my hair. I loved the ambiance of the salon and the other stylists were always super nice.

And since the MN State Fair is underway, be sure to chat it up with her as well. Love!

I'm secretly (not anymore I guess) hoping they'll open a NYC branch. Pretty please?!

It was a month before my wedding and the stylist I had been going to had to take a leave of absence. Stefani stepped up to the plate, fit me in for an appt and it turned out amazing. What could have been a stressful situation was handled great by hairosmith and I would recommend them any day!

I have been going to Stefanie for a few years for extensions and I seriously love them. Now, I'm a pretty low maintenance gal, but nature was not kind to me in the hair department so extensions make me LOVE my hair. Stefanie is able to work her magic to make my hair look good, which is no small feat.

Not only is she able to make me look good, she also offers beverages while doing your hair. I guess you can get a beer if you want, but I have never had a beer. I don't know. I just can't imagine drinking a beer while getting my hair done, but I've seen others with the beer.
