Decided to try this conveniently located Aveda salon after moving back from Santa Ana, Costa Rica…read morein March as I have used Aveda products for many years. Booked an appointment for a cut with Jaury, and was delighted with results after first explaining that I wanted a classic, feminine short cut. Have booked more appointments since then and will continue to do so because it is comforting to know that I can find both an experienced stylist who follows my requests and the products I prefer all conveniently located in Cedar Park just a short drive from our home here in Williamson County

I had already stalked her work on IG before taking the quiz to see which stylist would be a good fit and Bam! I was matched with her. I am extremely picky with my hair due to having past hair stylist trauma and was loyal to my CA stylist for over 10 years. After our initial consult I felt very comfortable that she would be able to recreate my inspo pic, she literally knew exactly what colors to use to get me there. Itit turned out better than I imagined. She took me from my close to natural blonde that I felt made me look washed out and lifeless to this gorgeous rich strawberry shortcake. I literally couldn't wait for my next appointment so I moved it up a few weeks because I love my hair so much! Thank you Callie!!!

I booked an appointment with the salon's highest-level stylist, who advertises herself as a…read moreblonding specialist. I showed her exactly the platinum tone I wanted. My receipt reflects a premium service labeled "Platinum AF." I paid $650 for what I believed would be master-level platinum blonding. Instead, approximately 70% of my foils were placed by an assistant who graduated cosmetology school in June 2024 and had only been working at the salon for three months. The lead stylist repeatedly stepped away to service other clients. She was not consistently present during application and did not meaningfully evaluate the foils until removal was nearly complete. The assistant also performed all foil removal. Platinum blonding is one of the most technically demanding chemical services in the industry. It requires precision placement, careful saturation, and close monitoring. That did not happen. The final result was objectively poor: * Large orange and yellow hot spots throughout * Uneven processing * The nape of my neck partially unhighlighted on one side * Patchy tonal inconsistency * Noticeable dryness and signs of chemical damage This was not a subtle "slightly off tone." This was visibly uneven, brassy, and inconsistent work -- especially unacceptable at this price point. When I expressed concern immediately in the chair, I was told it was "the lighting" and reassured it was platinum. I was not shown the back of my head before leaving. When I got home, my 14-year-old daughter walked in and said, "Your hair is yellow." I had not said a word to her. The issue was obvious. I returned the next day requesting a partial refund because I did not feel comfortable allowing additional bleach on already compromised hair. I was told refunds are against policy. Charging premium, specialist-level pricing while delegating the majority of a complex platinum service to a newly graduated assistant -- without clear and direct informed consent in the chair -- feels like a deceptive practice. Clients deserve transparency about who is performing a chemical service on their hair. If I am paying for a master blonding specialist, I expect that specialist to perform the work. At $650, there should be a clear transformation and a "wow" moment. Instead, I left with uneven, brassy, partially unprocessed hair and no accountability. Future clients should ask very clearly who will actually be performing their service before agreeing to premium pricing.

I recently decided that I wanted a regular Stylist instead of just bouncing from salon to salon,…read moreand you can't get any better than Heather. She gives an above average salon experience, but still takes the time to personally connect with her Clients. I initially went to her for a red balayage and she took my inspiration picture and put her own personal touch to truly give me a custom hair color. Ever since then I've gone to her for regular up keep and trims, and she always slays it. Even in between visits, my hair will fade like normal, but still looks fantastic and natural. That's how good she is! Heather also has tons of hair knowledge and experience, but also makes sure to dedicate time to educate herself further to pass down. When I first started seeing her, I would fry my hair with straighteners and not really know how to manage it. Now my hair is at it's healthiest, and regular haircuts from Heather help to keep my curls in place even though I have blonde in place. Having Heather as my Stylist is the best decision I've made for my hair.

Since sharing is caring I for sure had to share my experience especially if you're looking for a new hairstylist or wanting to try a new cut, which can be super scary!! When showing Heather pictures of the different haircuts I was thinking of getting I really liked how together we decided on the type of cut to go w/ and she just put me at ease, especially since I was really nervous about getting a shorter cut just 3 days before a big event that I was having.
