**Review by High School student** I've lived in Philadelphia my whole life, and even though I'm "young" I still no bad from good. Oggi is great! Everyone of their employees are more than capable of doing a great job, too! My mom goes there weekly for a manicure and her nails always look lovely. About every two month I get my legs waxed, not only is it done quickly, but the staff are very personable. Both my mom and I have get our haircut at Oggi. My mom changes stylist, but my hair is always styled by Cynthia. She's very friendly and outgoing, and everyone I know who has their hair styled by her loves it! Sometimes the scheduling gets messed up, but what do you expect from an award winning center city salon and spa that is full of people? Yes, the women at the front desk aren't always the friendliest, but they know what they're doing and don't want to get caught up with a bitching customer. Thats the only time I've ever seen them be impolite. I recommend going to Oggi for anyone of their services! Hope this review helped! --Just another philly teen

Pros: EVERYTHING

Cons: parking can be hard (it is center city), it can seem a bit pricey but high maitence has a cost

I have lived in Phily for over 18 yrs. Oggi Salon was the worst experience. The front desk staff were RUDE, the cost was too much for the services and the average skills. If you don't mind being rushed after waiting to begin with, and have the time to waste, and want hair that looks alright, nothing special- go ahead, waste your money-this place is for you. Just warning people so they don't go thru what I did. Wretched experience, that receptionist should be FIRED!

Pros: location but theres lots of other salons in the area

Cons: rude front desk, ect.....

I went to Andrea for a full head of higlights about 8 weeks ago and my color still looks great. I showed her some pictures and she really took the time to listen to what I wanted and she made suggestions to correct what was my current disasterous mix of highlights. She's really sweet and did a fabulous job. Make sure you schedule early though because she gets booked up especially on saturdays. I went back today to get a desperately needed haircut. I have thick curly hair and I normally go to Joseph at Signatures, but the last few times I've gone to price jumped from $100 to $125 and my most recent haircut was uneven and seemingly incomplete (left very thick and untamed in the back). I asked the receptionist who at Oggi was good with curly hair and she suggested Cynthia (who I found out has her own mane of very curly hair). She was fantastic, very easy-going, and knew what needed to be done to correct the overall heaviness of my hair. She blew it straight for me (at record speed I might add), so I haven't seen it curly yet, but I can definitely tell that it's a good cut. I highly recommend Cynthia and Andrea. And the receptionist was perfectly nice, don't listen to those other reviews, they probably showed up during a rush.

Pros: Cynthia and Andrea

Cons: none that I can think of

I went to Jon Christopher based on a recommendation and what an amazing experience. I have very, long curly hair that can be anything but fun to manage if you don't know what you are doing. Jon did FANTASTIC, thorough work on my hair. He spent adequate time straighting and did a perfect trim. This is by far the most precise hair cut I have ever had. His only goal is your happiness and he works to meet it!!! I would highly recommend him if you want to leave a salon feeling elated and gorgeous!!!!!!!!

There is something to be said about getting a haircut and absolutely loving it. You feel great, you look great, and it makes your confidence shoot through the roof. I used to live in Philadelphia and would get my haircut from Jon Christopher all the time. It was the only hair cutting experience i swore by. After living in Philly, I decided to move to New York to pursue other ventures. I thought to myself that it would be easy finding someone to cut my hair in NY. I mean New York is supposed to be the fashion capitol of the world, right? It didn't take me long to realize that getting a GREAT haircut wouldn't be an easy job. After a few years and some inadequate haircuts, i knew it was time to go back to JON. I didn't realize just how much i missed jon cutting my hair and how a great haircut looked until I had Jon Christopher cut my hair again. I realize that there can never really be a subsitute for something so amazing. I will travel from New York at least once a month just so I can have Jon cut my hair. There's nothing like the feeling of leaving a salon and feeling completely new. If you havent been to Jon yet, you don't know what you are missing. After all, there is nothing like a "Jon cut"

Jon Fishwick has been cutting my hair for about 5 years. He has helped me transition through many hair styles and phases of my life from my wedding to two pregnancies my hair always has looked fresh and stylish! Jon is a very creative stylist, he works with you to create a style that is best for your features and lifestyle. One of the best things about a haircut from Jon is that the cut still looks great even as it grows! He is the best!

I recently moved to Philly and was looking for a new place to get my hair done when I came across the Oggi salon. As soon as I walked in I felt comfortable!!! I don't know how other people are when they first get their hair cut at a new place but I was super nervous. I had my hair cut and colored done by Jon Christopher. He was really nice and worked with me. Jon was honest , took his time and gave me lots of options!! Which was really important to me. In the end, my new cut and color came out awesome! He rocks! I least I have 1 new favorite in my new town. Thanks JON

Pros: great location

I've been going to Jon Fishwick to have my hair done for almost 20 years now, and I must say he is the best. I've never had so many strangers compliment me on my highlights or haircut as I have since going to him. His personality and demeanor are amazing. Sitting in his chair for an hour feels like 5 minutes because time flies with him. He listens to your ideas about a hairstyle while putting in his own professional ideas. He will not hesitate to say what will look best on you, while still incorperating what you would like. He is not only an amazing hairstylist but an awesome person. I'd recommend over and over and over again to anyone. He truly is the best!

Pros: Amazing atmosphere

Cons: nothing bad to say!

I love my hair sylist at Oggi, Jon Christopher! I met John when I was out with a friend one evening before I started going to him and he was just so down to earth, knowledgeable about hair and interesting to talk to that I wanted to go to him for my hair. He is schooled me on the techniques that work best for my curly hair when I started going to him and it's never looked better. I am so happy he's in town. Jon is also EXCELLENT at color, cut and styling and wonderful to his clients! Whenever he does my hair it makes me look and feel like a Million Bucks! LOVE HIM!
