About Salon

The Oak Street Hair Group is the culmination of a dream that began back nearly 40 years ago when Eric Egea answered an ad to join other French designers in Birmingham, Alabama to start a new salon. Eric was eventually joined by his wife Lori and Peter Sims in founding the Oak Street Hair Group.

These three master designers pride themselves on creating a salon that provides personalized service in relaxed, professional surroundings.

“Our staff is the key to our success. Most have started their careers as apprentices in our salon. They continue their training all over the country and world in order to assure our clients the latest styles and designs.”

Oak Street Hair Group's Philosophy

Every leaf is unique and beautiful in its own way. At Oak Street we understand that people, like leaves, are one-of-a-kind.

We work with each of our clients to enhance their own personal qualities. Our designers take into account the shape of your face, hair texture and color, your personality and lifestyle before creating a look that is the irresistible essence of you.

“Oak Street combines expertise, style, and innovation with a friendly atmosphere to create one of the Southeast’s premier salons."
