Service area

A hair salon a short drive from Osprey.

Scott Farmer Hair Salon sits inside Phenix Salon Suites at 555 S Tamiami Trl, Suite 139 in Venice, FL 34285. From Osprey, it is about 15 minutes a short drive south on US-41. By appointment only. One stylist, one client, one master-stylist chair at a time.

Why Osprey clients book Scott.

Osprey clients drive a quiet 15 minutes for a salon that takes one client at a time. The private-suite model is the draw for clients used to Sarasota's larger floor salons but tired of the noise and the rotating-chair model.

Every appointment starts with The Pre-Cut Read, a five-point planning consultation Scott runs before he picks up shears or mixes a single bowl. Density, growth pattern, porosity, lifestyle fit, and what the last three stylists missed. Three minutes of looking saves six weeks of fixing.

Is Scott Farmer Hair Salon worth the drive from Osprey, FL?

For clients who want a master stylist with 30 years behind the chair, a master-stylist chair instead of a packed floor, and a planning consultation before any product or shears touch the hair, the about 15 minutes drive from Osprey is shorter than the time it takes to fix a rushed cut from a closer salon. New clients usually book two to three weeks out.
