our STORY
Philosophi is a sibling of the successful Phia Salon in the Short North Arts District, Philosophi can be enjoyed by everyone, but was created with the needs of those who are gluten-sensitive in mind. At Philosophi our hair color and retail products are either entirely gluten free or are formulated without gluten. Our professional staff is also committed to the gluten-aware environment.
Our clients and staff say it all. Their happiness has proven the success of the Phia Salon concept. We’ve blended the excitement, support, and development potential of larger companies and salons, with an entrepreneurial spirit of a small, locally-owned company. The result has been consistently recognized nationally among Salon Today's Salon 200.
We are proud to partner with Davines for both color and retail. We love their extraordinary quality, unbending commitment to the environment, and B-Corp status. Davines color is infused with plant pigments, palm oil and quinoa proteins, and the products are second-to-none. In the rare instance where there is a result that cannot be obtained with Davines color or retail product, we are pleased to have access to Aveda, Pulp Riot, and Pravana.

Before coming into the salon, your stylist will be in communication with you about your goals for your service, and the salon will send you a virtual appointment confirmation (unless you choose to opt out).
When you arrive, you’ll receive a thorough consultation where you can be completely candid, outlining your budget, time constraints, goals, or concerns. You’ll then be given a written plan including expected outcomes, time estimates, and price. This plan forms the agreement for your service.
