Best Hair Salons In Austin

“Katie Blackshear fixed up my thick curly grown out layers like it was nothing! She was so attentive and interested in what I wanted from the cut and out of my hair. And she was fun to talk to. Best curly haircut I’ve had in years.“

“I loved my time at Headspace today. Thank you to Gracie for a great hair blowout. It was my first time visiting and I’ll be back. Front desk staff member was welcoming and sweet too. Thank y’all“

“This wasn’t just a haircut; it was an EXPERIENCE!!! ???

The owner was super friendly and hospitable (the coffee he made me was so good). You fill out a form when you arrive and get complimentary services, which is already so nice, but what really stood out to me was the option to choose “I need quiet time” or “Chat away.” I can’t remember the exact wording, but as someone with autism, that small detail made me feel seen and cared for. Gus the dog is sweetie. ?

The entire customer experience impressed me, from the snack and drink section (with a wide variety) to the complimentary add-ons. The area you get your hair washed felt magical! ? It was so comfy and relaxing, low lighting, calming music, a scalp massage, and a heated eye mask. It felt like a spa! ?‍♀️??‍♀️

My stylist, Michelle, cut my hair exactly how I wanted. Overall, I loved everything about my visit and will definitely be coming back!!! ??“

“I’ve got curly hair, and if you pair that with not always knowing the right terms to describe what you’re looking for: you get some pretty ROUGH haircuts.
But then I found Maddie at Deep Roots, and I’m walking out jazzed. She was patient and socratic for the first few minutes, allowing me to talk through what I wanted - and then she just made it happen! Couldn’t be happier. 10/10 experience, we are 🆙“

“I went to Harlow yesterday for a much-needed keratin treatment. Nikki Aguilera was my stylist. Nikki has been a stylist for 17 years, her professionalism, confidence, and knowledge immediately put me at ease. Beyond her skill level, she is also very authentic and kind.
Since Nikki books up fast, I already have my next appointment on the calendar.“

“I had my first appointment with Ruby at Nova Hair Collective, and it was honestly one of the best salon experiences I've had.

From the moment I sat down, Ruby took the time to really listen. She asked about my hair concerns, styling challenges, goals, and what I was hoping to achieve. She spent a lot of time explaining her recommendations and making sure we were completely on the same page before getting started, which I really appreciated.

As someone with curly hair, finding a stylist who truly understands curls can be challenging, but Ruby absolutely does. She took her time shaping my curls, paying attention to how they naturally fall, and even walked me through her styling approach so I could recreate the look at home. I learned so much during my appointment.

Beyond her talent, Ruby is incredibly down-to-earth and welcoming. She makes you feel comfortable from the moment you sit in her chair, and by the end of the appointment, it felt like I had made a new friend.

I left loving my hair and feeling confident in how to care for and style it. I'll definitely be back and will absolutely be recommending Ruby to anyone looking for a stylist who truly listens, educates, and delivers amazing results.“

“I had to get my extensions washed and hair blown out as soon as my flight landed in Austin. Hair House was the perfect place to kick off my weekend! Artierose was so friendly and funny. I’ve never enjoyed a conversation with a hairstylist more in my life! I truly enjoyed every minute of this appointment. She took time to really wash all of my hair and extensions. I also loved her time and dedication to getting all of the extensions dry. I feel so much more fabulous. Thank you Artierose!!!!“

“Great staff. Friendly, inviting space.
My stylist Andrea did a great job and made me feel at ease right away . Enjoyable experience.“

““Amazing experience from start to finish. Super friendly, professional, and I love my new look. Highly recommend!” Shoutout to my girl Kenny. Your amazing ?✨?“

“Switched salons and got a cut with Alicia, who is WONDERFUL. Super talented and very personable and funny. Very happy with my style!“

“Sara June and the other stylists make this place super special. This salon is grounded in eco friendly design and has a very calming atmosphere. Very low key without feeling like you’re cutting any corners! Support this local uncut gem. Other salons (Urban Betty) honestly can step aside.“

“Kelsey Adams is the GOAT. She has an incredible eye for detail and always brings the vision to life. My expectations are never just met—they’re exceeded every single time. Highly recommend her if you want someone who truly knows what they’re doing.“

“Jesika is amazing! She is really great at communicating with you to make sure you get what you want!“

“I love coming here everybody is so nice!
Jade did an awesome job and I had a great experience! Thank you!“

“I had the greatest experience! Norma and Gloria are the sweetest team; they're bilingual queens, too! Hablan español. They squeezed me in when I had been canceled by someone else and was left in a bind. I absolutely love my hair and feel so beautiful. I got to see their work on other clients and was in awe of their talent and teamwork. I will definitely be back!!! Muchas gracias, bellas! ??“

“I had the best experience with Zane!!! I had never been to a "real salon" before and was anxiously excited for my appointment. I got some dimensional highlights and a long haircut, and this experience was one of the best/most comfortable experiences I've ever had with a hairstylist. Firstly, the salon itself is so warm and welcoming. You never feel out of place and everyone I interacted with is so incredibly kind. The seats are also very comfortable. Zane was extremely knowledgeable and happily answered all of my questions. It made me absolutely confident that they knew what they were doing and I loved learning more about haircare/coloring/styling. Truly an artist AND chemist haha! They also were super precise and constantly made sure that I was comfortable with what they were doing and I liked it! They were even sweet enough to schedule a follow-up appointment to make some color adjustments after we were done because I was so indecisive and didn't truly know what I wanted until after I saw the end product and realized I wanted more highlights than I initially asked for. Zane also continued to answer my questions after my appointment was over when I was figuring out what color-safe products to use. I'm telling y'all, Zane is SO KNOWLEDGEABLE. The prices were also super fair and Zane made sure to break everything down for me, so I knew exactly what I was paying for and made sure I was comfortable before we started the process. Absolutely no scamming here! I will 100% be returning to Zane specifically for touch-ups and additional cuts. I truly recommend Zane at the Craig Piatti Salon to anyone in Austin looking for a fresh cut or some creative colors!“

“Erin Millington has been cutting my hair for years and is literally the best out there. I trust her with my life (hair)“

“Ellie is the absolute best! I have been traumatized by many bad haircuts in the past, and Ellie did not let me down. I showed her lots of pictures and explained to her what I wanted, and she gave me exactly what I asked for. I couldn’t recommend this place (and Ellie) enough, especially for queer folks! ??“

“Amanda is so amazing!!! Love her to death she always does such a great job with my hair and is so concerned with hair/scalp health, I’ve never left without a smile on my face??“

“Great customer service and open hours. I loved how they cut my hair and also how straight up the prices are.“

“Great salon! I tried a new stylist this last time just to timing with my schedule and she did a great job! I will be back!“

“First head spa experience and it will not be my last! Gabrielle was educational about scalp care & what products I should be using, I left my service well informed and incredibly relaxed. She’s also really easy to talk to and it was so easy to completely zen out from the world in her room.
Check out my before & afters! My hair felt so much lighter and healthier.“

“Lauren is the absolute best!! I had a bright blonde with her which is absolutely crushed. I get so many compliments! As a natural blonde getting darker, she keeps me feeling brighter!! Couldn’t recommend her more“

“I couldn’t be more happy to find Cam as my new hair stylist ! He’s very professional and completely patient with my difficult hair condition. He turn it into a beautiful result that I’ve always dream of . Couldn’t recommend Cam enough !!!“
