- EGErica GarciaOct 19, 20255.0Audra was amazing, we came in Thursday 10/16 after 6pm; after letting Audra know this would be my son 2nd time using clippers, she was gentle and kind. You are amazing and wonderful. Online check in was a breeze, enough parking and the salon was clean.
- CNCalvin NájeraAug 16, 20255.0Just got my hair cut by a gal named Madison. They were very courteous and took the time to explain to me why my hair does what it does, something about a cow lick. They were very gentle (not knocking my head around during the process) and got me looking much better than what I did when I walked in. They even took the time to answer my question about how to pronounce “pomade” (?). 10/10 or five out of five stars. Ask for Madison.
- L2Lman 2025Aug 11, 20255.0Loved my lady. Wish I had her name but she was a middle aged Hispanic woman. Did a great job!! Had Blanka a second time. She does one awesome fade. Love her! Thanks!
- AAAdam AltmejdAug 1, 20251.0DO NOT bother with this location. They will give you a bad haircut and bad service. If you’re looking for a cheap haircut there are many other places in Austin you should look instead.
- SMSteve MilosJul 6, 20255.0Pretty friendly staff, and i've never had a bad haircut there
