Hair Salons in Oakdale

Specializing in all aspects of hairstyling, Canvas Salon’s talented staff of hair tamers is led by Cherry Doran Johnson and Lorraine Blanco, who boast decades of follicle-forming experience. Visitors can get a look-rejuvenating haircut and a volume-boosting style that will accessorize any outfit better than a pair of road-flare earrings. While customers wind down and relax, away from noisy traffic and marauding city invaders, the friendly tress-masters will swaddle your locks in a conditioning shine masque ($15–$20) that penetrates each strand to soften and add a lustrous shine.

Traditionally, the exclamation “ooh la la!” is reserved for moments that blend luxuriousness and surprise. Comments like that often fill the air at Ooh La La Salon and Day Spa, where a team of stylists and technicians delivers pampering treatments that span the entire beauty spectrum. At 14 hair stations, stylists help clients part with unwanted length and say hello to new hues. Treatment rooms provide privacy during massages and facials, and a small fleet of nail stations set in alcoves welcomes the polish-illuminating light of nearby chandeliers. Guests can also top off looks with cosmetic services including makeup applications and airbrush tans.

Creations Salon owner Lynnell Darby leads a staff of experienced stylists in cutting, coloring, and coiffing tresses with acclaimed salon products that include Paul Mitchell and Pureology. Clients kick back and savor a complimentary beverage as their hair basks in deep hydration alongside skin-flattering color or dimension-boosting highlights before the strand sculpting begins. Unlike the copycat styles and unyielding salad bowls used in a typical salon, Creations' stylists approach each head of tresses as a unique canvas, taking both fashion trends and individual face shape into account to forge a one-of-a-kind style.

The stylists of Envy Salon & Spa have partnered with the high-end Kérastase haircare line to bring their clients effective treatments that leave hair shining. Stylists utilize their training from top schools such as Vidal Sassoon to design flattering coifs, add subtle highlights, or lengthen natural hair with weaves. When they’re not grooming strands, beauty specialists wax away unwanted hair and milk moustaches and help clients manage acne and wrinkles with Dermologica and Jan Marini facials.

As the vibrant, swirling skirts of belly dancers entrance patrons' eyes, Skewers' chefs slice up lamb, filet mignon, chicken, and salmon for the restaurant’s namesake kebabs. To sate carnivorous cravings, their flavorful meats—which are marinated for 48 to 72 hours in tangy Mediterranean spices and oils—are roasted over the open flame of a stove or a snoring baby dragon. Bartenders craft potent martinis and pour international wines that complement both the punchy flavors of the kebabs and the plumes of sweet, aromatic smoke that dance through the hookah garden. On select nights, the kebab house brims with the catchy beats of live jazz bands, late-night DJs, and brave karaoke performers, and belly dancers take center stage with their sensuous dance moves on Saturday evenings.

The stylists and aestheticians at Salon Envy & Boutique beautify men and women in a recently opened studio that has been featured in the Lodi News-Sentinel. Hairdressers wrap tresses in highlight foil and entwine feather extensions, while nail techs shield claws behind vibrant coats of polish useful for distracting competition during cat's-cradle matches. Pendulous lights hang from the salon's high ceilings as earth tones surround guests in a soothing expanse. Clients can also peruse jewelry, clutch purses, and Juicy Couture bags in Salon Envy's boutique.
