The Up & Up Salon

General Info

We are a salon company that believes that the status quo is meant to be challenged, whether in business, color or style. We are constantly reinventing ourselves, researching latest trends and learning new ways to cut/color/style.

We believe that everyone has something unique to bring to the table, and within that, beauty comes alive. Our goal is to make you feel your best, so you can be your best self. We collaborate with you to make your hair goals a reality, while also taking your lifestyle into account. As Coco Chanel said, “Beauty begins the moment you decided to be yourself.”

We believe that the salon is not just a place to go get your hair done, it’s an experience. We provide exceptional beauty services with world class customer service; Hot steam towels and aroma therapy provide you with an indulgent experience while styling lessons and online tutorials allows you to take the salon experience with you.

We are an education-based salon company that emphasizes honest and ethical treatment of both the client and employee. We are community-minded, foraging lasting relationships with our clients and local community.

Where We Started

After years of working at some of Saint Louis’s top salons owner Erin Mohr decided it was time to start something of her own. While sitting in a swanky speakeasy style bar in Greenwich village, NYC, she dreamed of the Perfect salon. A salon that would become a place for creativity, inclusiveness, and collaboration, that celebrates the uniqueness in everyone. The bar was named The Up & Up, and upon looking up the definition, Erin knew it was meant to be.

On The Up And Up

Definition:
Informal US: honest and legalI don’t want to do anything dishonest. Let’s keep everything on the up and up.
British: becoming more successful. He recently got a promotion and is on the up and up.

Since opening The Up and Up salon, Erin Mohr has worked tirelessly to change the standards in which most salons operate to create an atmosphere of love, inclusivity, integrity and professionalism.
