About

Exodus Hair was founded as a barbershop and salon under one roof and is co-owned by Mat Harkless and Amber Harkless. The business serves barber clients and salon clients alike, and it describes itself as unusual in Cleveland for pairing barbering with salon services.

The salon lists honor, excellence, professionalism and continuous education as its core values. Stylists are expected to arrive early, dress professionally and keep taking education courses. The team says it treats every guest like family and does not see itself as above anyone.

Booking is done online or by phone. Guests who are unsure what to book can call for an over-the-phone consultation, and stylists offer a free in-person consultation to talk through hair goals before a service is booked. For color changes and custom work, price quotes come through the contact form: you send photos of your current hair and the result you want, and receive an estimated price range and timeframe. The lot behind the building is free to park in, with a rear entrance for guests, and street parking is available nearby on W 45th St, Lorain Ave and W 47th St. Hours are Tuesday and Wednesday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Thursday and Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.; the salon is closed Sunday and Monday.

The color menu is organized by how much change it makes, from a low-impact tone shift around the face to a high-contrast, maximum-change service that suits platinum blondes and dramatic light-to-dark transformations and may take several sessions. Developing artist color is performed by a stylist in the salon's advanced training program under the supervision of an experienced stylist; its price is set after a phone call that confirms timing and scope. Luxury add-ons include deep conditioning, scalp massages and quarterly extras.

Built on a barbershop and salon model with an emphasis on professionalism, continuing education and treating each guest well.

The salon describes its feel as professional yet relaxed, welcoming and community-driven.
