Mitzy's Hair Salon is a full-service salon located in Oklahoma City's Midtown neighborhood, operating as a single-location, owner-run business that specializes in color work, cuts, and styling for clients across different hair textures. The salon works by appointment and serves a mix of regular clients and walk-ins depending on availability, positioning itself as an accessible neighborhood option rather than a high-volume chain or luxury destination.
Mitzy's operates as an independent salon with three to four stylists on staff, each bringing their own skill sets and clientele. The salon handles general cuts and styling, but the owner and several stylists emphasize color work including full color, balayage, and root touch-ups. The space is compact, typically hosting one to two clients at a time, which means a quieter environment than larger salons but also less ability to accommodate walk-ins during peak hours. The salon's reputation centers on consistency and personalized attention rather than trendsetting or celebrity styling.
Haircuts at Mitzy's start at approximately $35 to $45 for a basic cut, with pricing varying by stylist experience and whether additional services are included. Color services run from $60 to $120 for single-process color and root touch-ups, depending on coverage and hair length. Balayage or dimensional color techniques typically fall in the $100 to $180 range. Styling services for events (blowouts, updo work) are usually $40 to $75. Confirm current pricing by phone, as salon prices tend to adjust annually.
The salon does not offer extensions or chemical treatments like perms or relaxers, making it primarily a cut-and-color destination rather than a full-service transformation shop.
Oklahoma City has several tiers of salons. Higher-end options like salons in the Bricktown or Plaza District areas often staff 8 to 12 stylists, offer extended service menus including extensions and treatments, and charge $50 to $65 for basic cuts and $150 to $300 for advanced color work. Chain salons like Cost Cutters and Supercuts offer faster, lower-cost cuts ($20 to $35) with minimal appointment wait times but less stylist continuity.
Mitzy's sits in the middle ground: cheaper than luxury salons, more personalized than chains, and appointment-focused rather than drop-in. The tradeoff is that you may wait longer for an opening if you need a specific stylist, and the service menu is narrower. For someone seeking affordable, consistent color and cut work from someone who remembers their preferences, Mitzy's is the logical choice. For someone wanting a full transformation (extensions, chemical treatments) or immediate walk-in service, a larger salon is better.
Mitzy's works well for clients who value continuity with one stylist, prefer a quieter environment, and need reliable cut and color work at moderate prices. Regular clients who build relationships with their stylist tend to book 6 to 12 weeks in advance for color maintenance. The salon also accommodates first-time clients and those trying a new stylist, though availability may require scheduling a week or two out during busy seasons.
The salon is less suitable for walk-ins seeking immediate service, clients needing hair extensions or specialty treatments, or those unfamiliar with how to describe their color goals (the smaller staff means less ability to redirect you to a different stylist if there is a communication mismatch).
Call ahead to book an appointment; walk-ins are possible but not guaranteed a timeslot. The consultation typically happens at the shampoo area or cutting station, where you discuss your goals with the stylist. If you are doing color work, expect the stylist to assess your hair's current condition and any previous color history. Basic cuts or simple color usually take 45 minutes to an hour. More complex balayage or dimensional work may run 90 minutes to two hours. The salon uses standard product lines (confirm which brands when you call), and stylists will usually recommend at-home maintenance products for color-treated hair.
Mitzy's Hair Salon is open Tuesday through Saturday, typically 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and closed Sunday and Monday. Verify exact hours by phone before your first visit, as holiday adjustments occur. Street parking is available on the Midtown block; there is no dedicated lot. The salon is accessible from the Midtown neighborhood's main corridor, roughly 15 minutes from downtown Oklahoma City.
Mitzy's survives in Oklahoma City's competitive salon market because it does one thing well: deliver consistent, affordable color and cut work in a neighborhood setting where clients can build trust with their stylist.
