TJ is amazing. He has been doing my hair for as long as I can remember. Salon Austin has been an ammonia free salon since it's beginnings. I love that his shop does not use or sell harmful products.

I've been going here to see TJ for over 6 years. He's one of only a few people that can cut hair with a razor, which makes it look like your hair wasn't just cut. He also sells great hair products here!

Just called to see about making an appointment. The phone rings, a guy answers, Him: hello?! Me: uh hello? Is this Salon Austin? Him: *SIGH* I'm open TUESDAY THROUGH SATURDAY. Me: welp, that would've been good to know. Him: *click* Very easy way to rule out a salon that you're looking into! Thanks for narrowing it down haha. What a piece of shit like learn how to turn off your phone if you don't want people calling you, dumbass.

Don't bother with salon austin. i just tried calling to schedule an appointment and here was the conversation: ME: Hi, I was just wondering if i could schedule an appointment for a men's haircut tomorrow? STYLIST: No. You can't. The salon's closed today because it's monday, and i'm nowhere near my book so i can't help you. ME: um. ok. STYLIST: call the salon in the morning and we'll see if we can even fit you in. ME, trying not to curse him out because he was speaking to a potential new client so rudely: yea. i'll do that. (sure i will. jerk.)

TJ was great! It was my first time getting my chest waxed, and he was very professional, but super friendly and made me feel right at ease. It wasn't nearly as painful as I was expecting. Very reasonable pricing too. I already made my next appointment!

First off I must say this review doesn't reflect the talent of the salon but is geared towards their customer service. I called the salon and was greeted with an angry voice "WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME!" Taken aback and slightly confused, I replied, "Is this not Salon Austin?" To which he answered quite rudely yes what do you want? I said I was just calling to find out when you closed and again he angrily said he closed an hour ago.

To say the least the conversation didn't go much further than that. I know this interaction appears seemingly outlandish but I assure this is exactly the way it happened. Advice to Salon Austin: clean up your customer service, learn how to answer phones or don't answer them at all.

I may not have the best attitude towards everyone I speak to, but I try not to be purposely Rude. I Will Not EVER go to Salon Austin, after the the RUDENESS I just got from TJ who answered the phone. I inquired about getting a haircut, he snapped back I full for the day. I was like, I dont want a cut today, I want to see about getting a cut for http://www.locksoflove.org/ and I was rudely told, I DONT DO THAT ANYMORE, I heres anumber to call, and what came next was a shock, I dont shock easily. But he had the balls to say " I wont do that anymore, I have a Life ". then hung up on me.

I've been going to TJ for several years now and he always does a fantastic job. The hair color he uses is amazing and looks so natural. I highly recommend him.

I had dyed my hair for many years and wanted to let it grow out and just be gray. I couldn't find anyone to help me with that, but TJ was great! He gave me a wonderful haircut and colored my hair a blend of light blonde and brown, so naturally that no one ever knew it was growing out. Several years later, I'm still impressed with his haircuts and I drive a long way to get there - great job!
