Hour Rose Salon - Minneapolis
Beautiful Hair Lives Here.
At Hour Rose Salon, we believe that your hair is a reflection of your individuality, beauty, and confidence. Founded by Master Stylist Erin Barr in 2017, our story began in the vibrant neighborhood of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, New York City. Erin’s passion for creating stunning, natural, and personalized hair transformations has been the heart of our mission since day one.
With over 22 years of experience in the hair industry, Erin combines artistry and precision to bring out the best in every client. Her philosophy is simple: enhance your natural beauty with expert techniques that make you look and feel your most elegant self. In 2021, Erin expanded Hour Rose Salon to a second location in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she now resides, followed by an additional location in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in 2026.
From cutting-edge haircuts and dimensional hair coloring to specialized services like balayage, blonding, and hair extensions, Hour Rose Salon is dedicated to delivering high-quality results in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Our team of skilled stylists is deeply passionate about their craft, providing personalized consultations and tailored solutions for every hair type, texture, and vision.
Erin's professional journey began at Aveda’s headquarters in Minneapolis, where she honed her skills before moving to New York City. There, she trained alongside some of the industry’s top stylists, mastering advanced techniques in cutting, coloring, and extensions. Her commitment to education extends beyond her personal growth; Erin provides mentorship and training for stylists in both Hour Rose locations, ensuring that every client benefits from her innovative techniques and dedication to excellence.
