Opulence Hair Company is a full-service salon in Oklahoma City's Midtown district that specializes in color correction, balayage, and hair extensions, with pricing anchored to senior stylists rather than entry-level apprentices. The salon operates by appointment and caters to clients seeking detailed, longer-session work in a quieter setting than typical walk-in environments.
Opulence occupies a dedicated space designed around private consultation and detailed hair work. The salon structure emphasizes one stylist per client during the appointment, avoiding the open-floor-plan chatter common at higher-volume salons. Its focus is on color transformation, balayage placement, and extension application rather than quick trims or basic styling. The clientele tends toward adult professionals and brides preparing for events, not families seeking children's cuts.
Color services range from single-process color ($80–$120) to full balayage ($150–$300), depending on hair length and complexity. Root touch-ups cost $60–$90. Hair extensions, offered in tape-in and sew-in methods, typically run $400–$800 for application plus the cost of hair stock ($150–$400 depending on length and quality). Cuts start at $50 and often accompany color work. Extension maintenance appointments, needed every 4–8 weeks, cost $75–$150. Prices may shift seasonally; confirm current rates by phone.
All stylists are licensed, and the salon requires new clients to book a consultation call or visit before scheduling color work, a practice common among salons handling complex corrections and preventing surprises on the day of service.
Opulence sits at the mid-to-premium tier of Oklahoma City hair salons. Salons like Salon Bella in Edmond and The Colorist in Bricktown also specialize in color and extensions but operate in busier, open environments where walk-ins are accepted and turnover is faster. Opulence's appointment-only model and private consultation approach cost more but reduce wait time and allow stylists to discuss goals without interruption. For clients seeking quick trims or basic styles, Fantastic Sams locations across the city (pricing under $30 for cuts) are faster and cheaper but do not offer the same color expertise. For those needing high-end extensions or color correction from a senior stylist, Opulence aligns with salons in the $150–$250 color range; for budget color work, walk-in salons undercut that significantly but assign less experienced staff.
The key difference: Opulence builds in time and senior stylist labor into its pricing, whereas volume-based salons compress both.
Opulence works for clients with complex color histories, those considering extensions, brides and event attendees, and professionals with flexible schedules who prefer appointment slots over drop-in traffic. The quiet, private consultation model also suits anyone uncomfortable discussing hair goals in a busy salon. Clients with limited budgets, those needing frequent quick trims, children, and walk-in seekers will find better options elsewhere; the salon's model does not accommodate impulse visits or fast service.
New clients typically start with a consultation via phone or in-salon, where the stylist assesses hair condition, damage history, and the client's goal (for example, lightening without breakage, adding volume with extensions, or correcting previous color work). This step is mandatory before booking a color appointment. During the actual appointment, expect 2–4 hours for complex color work or extension application. The stylist will show color swatches, discuss placement for balayage, and explain maintenance needs, especially for extensions. Bring reference photos if you have them.
Opulence operates by appointment only, typically Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., though weekend and evening slots may be limited. Verify hours before booking, as they can shift seasonally. The salon is located in the Midtown neighborhood and offers street parking or shared lot access typical of that district. No walk-ins are accepted. Booking is done by phone or through the salon's website or Instagram.
Opulence fills a specific role in Oklahoma City's salon landscape: it serves clients willing to pay for unhurried, expert color and extension work with a senior stylist, in a setting designed for concentration rather than volume. For that focused clientele, the pricing and appointment structure justify the overhead.
