Testimonials

I love coming to Oska’s to have my hair done, it is a very friendly and relaxing environment. I have been having my hair done by Charlotte for as long as I can remember, she is an excellent hair dresser and I know I can trust her to do exactly as I ask.

I would always recommend Oskas to anyone.

I was one of Joel’s first clients when he opened Oska Hair in Park Gate.  I’ve never looked back and have been coming regularly ever since.  You get real service from a friendly, helpful team. Joel’s passion for hair means I always leave the salon with a beautiful cut, colour and style every time.  I’m always received like a friend of the family, I look forward to my cuppa, a good chat and downtime to relax and enjoy a magazine – it’s a real pleasure and they all know their stuff about hair too!!"

Charlotte has been cutting and colouring my hair for over 7 years. She is delightful, fully understands when I ask for the impossible, and adapts it accordingly!!

I have recommended her to my friends who are equally delighted with her, and have become regular customers.

I've had my hair cut by Charlotte at Oska Hair for over six years now and I can't recommend them highly enough. I started using Oska hair after the hairdressers I used in Southampton let me down on a number of occasions and I haven't looked back since. The staff are so friendly and remember you by name, the service they provide is exceptional and I am always pleased with the outcome.

 They style my hair and know exactly what will suit and what doesn't - I trust them completely and that is why I keep going back.

OSKA's simply outclass the rest.

Whenever I have visited OSKA's I have left feeling like a new woman! For me the whole experience is "top notch". I have had my hair done at OSKA's for around six years and everyone I know always comments on how great my hair looks. Moving away, I tried other hairdressers in Fareham, Southampton & Stubbington, not one came anywhere near OSKAs, so I am more than happy to travel that extra bit further for the sake of my hair because I am worth it! When you walk through the entrance and up the stairs towards the reception area you are greeted in a pleasant, friendly way and shown to your seat, You will be offered a drink, the tea and coffee are great but I can definitely recommend the Hot Chocolate. There are two main areas to the saloon, both offering a comfortable, relaxed atmosphere with chilled out background music to die for (no boom boom club stuff in sight - thank god!) The wash basins offer enough comfort for a quick nap. You will notice that the decor offers a soft modern comtemporary feel, It's all very tastefully done. Give Oska's a try, you'll never look back.

Like many I was tired of trying different hairdressers, paying a mini fortune and not getting the look I wanted. I found that they lacked the confidence and experience with colouring and often I could barely see the highlights and low lights, especially when I wanted a more bold look. Then along came Joel.
I forget now how long I have known Joel but it has been some years. Initially  didn't know he was a hairdresser and as soon as he told me I booked in for some highlights.
He listened to me and advised me how to get the look I wanted and created exactly what I wanted and more. He always creates the look I want, natural looking with a slight edgy look.
Leaving the salon I always feel pampered and thrilled with my new hair, that's why I still have Joel as my hairdresser despite living in Stockholm, Sweden.
Every time I am planning a trip back to the UK I ring Joel's salon first to check for availability and then book my flights.

"For me, an appointment in the chair at Oska's is popping for a cup of tea with a friend and leaving with beautiful new hair.  I can always trust Joel to make my hair look gorgeous, even when I’ve been less than kind to it between visits. 
He is creative and skilful with a relaxed and charming manner that often makes me forget he’s doing my hair at all.  His cuts never disappoint and I always leave the salon feeling great."
Elaine Rutherford

"Having had my hair cut at some of the top London salons for years I have never found better hairstyling and service than at Oska. Joel is unbelievably talented at knowing what will suit you and creating a hairstyle to fit with your lifestyle too. The salon is very friendly and professional. Basically I think that at Oska you get Mayfair hair styling at a fraction of the price and much more friendliness. I would recommend Joel unreservedly"
Sally Bibb (writer and consultant).

I always look forward to getting my hair done and coming to the hairdressers - Oska’s is such a friendly, welcoming place and everyone always says hello and remembers me.  I get a lovely cup of tea, sit back in the chair and feel relaxed and pampered. I wouldn’t trust any other hairdresser aside from Charlotte to do my hair – she always makes it look stunning and I have every confidence in her that she will continue to do so. She has been doing my hair for years and no matter what colour or style I ask her about I know I will get an open, honest opinion and I am happy to put all my trust in her that the outcome will look great.

"A delightful salon that is warm and cosy, Oska Hair makes having your hair cut a real treat.  The team take the time and care to get a style that is right for you and your hair.  
Your hair is in fabulous hands at Oska Hair!"
Christina  Black

"Oska hair is a small salon run by a professional and friendly team.  I have been having my hair cut at Oska hair for quite some time.  I visit regularly to have my hair cut and coloured I feel I am listened to and always get a fantastic cut and colour with no complaints.  For special occasions, I’ve even had my hair styled for a ball or curled for a wedding.  I love the environment and the warm and friendly staff, there’s always a magazine and a cup of tea to hand.  I’ve even managed to convert my fiancé to have his hair cut and he is now also a regular customer, I’m never going back to one of the big high street salon’s again, and always recommend Joel and his team to my friends."
Eloise Draper, Park Gate

I've been going to Oska Hair now for about 6 months following a recommendation and I'm so glad I tried them. The salon is light, airy and spacious and Joel and the team make you feel welcome and relaxed as soon as you walk in. Their haircutting skills are one of the best I've experienced, giving me a modern style that is easy to replicate myself, even on very early mornings! I have always found Joel and the team very professional and I would certainly recommend to any man looking for something better than the typical barber "razor cut" - give them a try!
Simon Draper, Park Gate

"I absolutely love going to the hairdressers so I am delighted to have finally found a hairdresser who makes me feel confident and relaxed. I am really pleased with my new hair and have had many compliments! I would happily recommend Joel to my friends...my family already use him".

Charlotte has been styling/colouring my hair for many years. I am always happy with the final result and come away relaxed having had an excellent cup of coffee and the chance to catch up with up-to date magazines.

Charlotte is delightful and always wellcomes me as do all the staff at Oska.
