I love coming here to getting my hair taken care of when it comes to Japanese hair straightening. It was my second time coming here after my first retouch (April 2024) after my first ever treatment (at a salon in Houston, May 2023). They recommend coming back every 6 months for touch-ups but I managed to come back after 8, even though my hair definitely was in need of a trim at that point! Tammy and co. are super professional and attentive to all details of the straightening process. The process itself is long (~4 hours) but they help make the time go by with their efficiency! I was also able to get complimentary coffee, water, and chocolate throughout my session to stay awake. After my session, I was gifted with a holiday cup with treats! Highly recommend Detammy if you are looking for a reputable place for Japanese hair straightening in Austin. read more

I should have reviewed this place earlier, because it's been more than a year. But I'm searching for a salon now and it reminds me how much I rely on reviews. So I figure I'll share my experience. I went here for the Korean straight perm. I've had it done before and know what it SHOULD look like. She just missed random pieces. I had a couple of stripes of curls mixed in. It was also stick straight in a way the prior times weren't- not just straight, but limp and lifeless. i know that it's supposed to give straight hair results, but... it was just different from what I've had before. By different, I mean worse. And then the haircut. Oh, the haircut. Maybe a blind squirrel chewing the edge of a hedge would admire this haircut, but no one else. It was crazy how uneven the back was, and zero layers. I went and paid for another cut at a different salon as soon as I could. So- won't be going back. And I miss California for their Korean hair salons! Anyone have a legitimately good rec in Austin? read more

I'll be coming back to Tammy and Lydia for all future haircuts until further notice! If you're picky about your Asian hair and looking for stylists who understand your low maintenance hair needs, these ladies gotchu. I feel so seen when they ask me about how I regularly style my hair and how often I get it trimmed. My locks always looks great when I leave their chairs AND months later thanks to the gorgeous work they do. The salon is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near the Arboretum. Parking is shared with a few other businesses in the strip mall but always a breeze. They take walk-ins but def make a reservation if you can because Tammy and Lydia are in high demand. Pricing is fair compared to other places in the Austin area, especially for the service and quality of work! Head to Detammy and *treat yoself* read more

I had my hair cut by the master/pro stylist and I loved it! She took what I wanted and transformed my hair into something so beautiful. Her hands were so light and swift, she never hurt my head. She was very nice, got me coffee, and told me to let her know if I needed anything else. I just felt really comfortable! And it was for an affordable price too! read more

Tammy and her team are fantastic! She's incredibly talented and kind, and I've gotten so many compliments on my haircut since she started cutting it. Thank you for taking what I thought worked for my face and making it even better. Highly recommend Detammy for a great cut! read more

My homegirl, Tammy, does not disappoint and she will take good care of you! After weeks of research, I decided to get my hair straightened at this salon and now I've found a place to come back to. Tammy is very transparent about prices and the process to Japanese hair straightening if you are new to it. I waited to write this review 2 to 3 weeks after I got my hair straightened just to see how the results would hold up. Let me tell you, my hair has never been silkier and lighter. Now, I always want to wear it down. Tammy was straight to the point. She dedicates that whole 3-4 hours to your hair and your hair only, making sure each strand is covered and nothing is out of place. When Tammy noticed I was overcharged for the service, she immediately called me the day of the appointment and refunded me the money. She is worth the investment and I am so glad to have found her! Outstanding service, time, and quality. read more

Tammy was very polite, soft spoken and professional. She and her crew moved like a well oiled machine. Went there for a back to back color, straightening and a cut and it was overall a pleasant experience and I will go back again. Salon was clean, well maintained and inviting. She was attentive to my requests and I'm satisfied with the result. read more

I have been getting Japanese Hair Straightening for the past 15 years and I love it. I have naturally frizzy, curly and unruly hair- in Texas weather, that's a curse! I am so lucky I came across Tammy's website as I have been in search of someone who does this service for the past 3 weeks since my old hair gal moved away. At first I was nervous, but Tammy is a true professional. She answered all my questions and assured me that I would love the end result. She's gentle, precise, fast, and affordable. I am so glad she's in Austin!! read more

I had been receiving my hair treatment for Japanese straightening for 9 years now in north austin. I accepted that it burns my hair and my time for treatments. That s all before I discovered Tammy. The process was shorter, the conversation was delightful, the suggestions for hair Care had been to the point. The service overall had been Impeccable. Thank you Tammy for what you do. read more

I'm so very impressed with this salon! Excellent services, beautiful results, great hair products, and very friendly good people! I highly recommend both cut and color here.:)) read more

She made my hair look amazing! I will be going to her again for sure. she knew exactly what i wanted and delivered!

Update: I washed it 48 hours after the treatment as recommended by Tammy. The result is still straight, smooth, light and shiny hair. Super impressed. If you want permanent hair straightening, she is by far the best. read more

Yesterday I decided at the last minute to get my armpits waxed. My under fur was wild and annoying and i needed it gone! Luckily, I went to Detammy where I had such an amazing experience. The woman who waxed me was so attentive and thoughtful and even put on relaxing music! The salon is very clean and smelled nice. When she asked if I also wanted my eyebrows waxed, I said, "sure, why not?". Let me tell you, it was a clean job! Loved it. I will definitely return. read more

Tammy H. Was my hairstylist for my very first appointment. Amazing place! The atmosphere was very relaxing, and soothing.

No words can describe enough how much I love my new hair, thanks to Tammy. Not only does it look a lot healthier, but it also saves me so much time and effort to have salon-quality hair all the time now. It's ready to go as soon as I roll out of bed every morning. Tammy absolutely loves what she does and it shows. She is amazing at it. You won't be disappointed. read more

Wow! I went in asking if they could cut my hair as a walk-in. I had my baby in a stroller. He was awake and quiet, no fuss at all. There was only one other customer in the salon being tended to by another. The stylist at the front desk said she could take me but questioned if I really had an hour because my child was with me. How condescending. I caught myself trying to justify that I had just fed him and he's a peaceful kid regardless. That shouldn't matter. I'm not about to drop $100+ just to be discriminated. Bye Felicia. read more

Tammy was awesome with highest Professional and precision skills. She kept explaining throughout the process and was upfront about cost. Highly recommend and Will definitely be going there again!!! read more

I had a Japanese Straightening done with Tammy and I can't believe how beautiful it looks. Super shiny, smooth and perfectly straight. It remains like this after every shower and it dries faster now since my hair is lighter. (Due to haircut+Japanese treatment) I highly recommend her. Tammy was also very flexible with me and adapted to my needs/requests. read more

I had the Japanese Straigthening and I am very happy with the results. Tammy did a wonderful job and I fully recommend her services.

I went in at the last minute before closing, they didn't hesitate taking me in. Determine did a exceptional job. Best haircut I have had in years years read more

I was delighted when I came across Tammy's Yelp when I was searching for a stylist/salon that offers the Japanese permanent hair straightening treatment because I noticed there wasn't a lot that offers this in the Seattle area. I found her email on her website (which is also listed on her Yelp) and she was able to book me an appointment that same week so I was very appreciative and excited. This was my first ever time getting this treatment done and Tammy was so sweet and attentive throughout the whole process. Anytime she did or used anything on my hair, she would educate me and was so knowledgeable and helpful whenever I asked her questions (and I asked a lot). She also made sure I was comfortable and would ask in between if I wanted snacks, water, or even if I needed to use the restroom. I mainly got this treatment done versus other treatments (i.e. Brazilian blowout, keratin treatment, etc) because I wanted something permanent. Tammy also recommends this since it's definitely more cost-efficient since the other treatments don't last so why wouldn't you something more permanent if you're going to spend the money? Moving on to my actual hair, I LOVE IT! I wanted to wait until after I washed my hair before I write this review because once you get this treatment done, you can't wash your hair for the next 2 days. Again, I LOVE MY HAIR. Another reason why I wanted to get this treatment done is to treat my frizzy and coarse hair so that it'll be smooth and silky. My hair is so much more manageable now and I don't dread it becoming a frizz ball every time I wash it. I definitely will be returning to Tammy again once my hair grows out and recommend her to anyone who wants to get the Japanese permanent hair straightening treatment. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and has years of experience since she has been doing it for years in Cali before she came here. read more

I can not say enough great things about Tammy and the magic she performs with the Japanese Hair Straightening system. I have had it done on my coarse curly hair at least 4 times now by another stylist over the last 10 years but Tammy far exceeded her work ! She is such a sweetheart and kept checking to see if I was okay and comfortable during the process. She's the best at what she does for sure!! The after is my hair with no color treatment or anything just the straightening process. read more

Make sure you ask up front how much they are going to charge you for a wash and a blow dry. I was charged $75 for a wash and a blow dry - I never would have gone through with it if I'd known that up front. i live in DC and pay $55. I called back the next day to ask why I was charged $75 and the woman who answered the phone said it was because I have highlights, that my hair tangled and my hair was thick. I've been getting my hair blown out for 35 yrs and have never been given those reasons. They also only offer Biolage products to wash you hair with. I actually told the woman who washed my hair up front that Biolage doesn't work well with my hair up front and asked if there was another product she could wash & condition my hair with and was told no. she quickly said we can use a deep conditioner on your hair instead but didn't offer up the information that I would be charged for said deep conditioner. it was only when I asked that she said oh yes you'll be charged. long story short, ask what everything is going to cost before you get in the chair. other than that they were very nice and it's a clean, well maintained salon. read more

I think I found my hair stylist!! Tammy did my hair last week and what can I say... she did such a good job! I love my hair and got so many compliments! I wish I found her sooner, but it's better late than never. Thanks again, Tammy! read more

If you are looking to get japanese hair straightening done, I highly recommend Tammy. She was very friendly and welcoming from the moment i stepped in to the salon. She took her time with my hair, treating every single piece. I have really thick hair, and not once did I feel rushed or like she was trying to speed up the process. Tammy has a lot of experience doing this in California, and I could definitely tell when I had my appointment. Mine took about 4 hours, but totally worth it. I love the results and am excited to retire my straightener. I'm so happy we now have Tammy in the greater Seattle area because she is really good at what she does. She also has photos on her webpage and instagram, which is what I used to help me decide to go with Tammy. Her price is amazing for the amount of work this takes. Give her a shot! You won't be disappointed. The first photo is right after it was done, second is in the sunlight (with some wind). So shiny, and smooth! read more

Waiting 4 hours for my fiancee is probably the longest time I've ever spent in the hair salon, but the result was well worth it! Tammy was excellent with the recommendation and got the hair done perfectly, from the color to the cut and the curve.

I had a great experience and amazing results at Detammy The salon. Tatiana did my hair color and haircut. My hair is quite challenging, as it's very damaged and over-processed. Tatiana listened and addressed all of my concerns regarding results I was looking for. She also managed my expectations by describing her approach to get as close as possible to a look that I was anticipating , so there were no surprises. As a result, I left the salon with my hair transformed into healthier-looking locks with natural color pattern read more

I had a small window in between college classes and a facial appointment. The woman who provided my service manage to get the adhesive from previous tap ins out of my hair, and styled my hair w beautiful curls all in 45 mins. My hair was left feeling beautiful and hydrated. Highly recommend:) read more

Tammy was very professional and spent a lot of time on my hair and explaining the process. She made sure I was comfortable and offered snacks/beverages during the 4 hours I was there. Unfortunately my Japanese straightening treatment did not have the immediate results that I was hoping for. After washing my hair on the 2nd day it still remains curly/wavy. I noticed after using the products she recommended my hair felt softer and after blow drying it seemed a little more straight but for the time and money being spent on this treatment I expected my hair to be straighter and smoother and with less frizz, however the next morning I was able to flat iron my hair in less than 30 minutes on a low temperature setting of 300 degrees. My hair actually turned out pretty straight and with using the humidity/heat protector Tammy recommended. Overall i would rate this experience good. read more

Tammy just did Japanese hair straightening for me and it turned out fantastic! I waited a couple days to review because I wanted to wash my hair and see the results then and it's still perfect. She was so sweet and checked I was comfortable several times as did some of the other women in the salon. I'll definitely be back to see Tammy! read more

I went to Tammy for a Japanese Straightening Treatment. It was a great experience. Very easy to book with her through text message and she offers some really convenient times. The hair process is long but so worth it. Tammy made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. She worked with my uneven home dye job and bleached ends to ensure my hair was not over processed or damaged. Really showed she knew what she was doing. My hair is so soft and straight. Highly recommend! read more

My regular hairstylist lives in another city and I had an event coming up with no time to book with her. Normally I am very hesitant to try a new stylist but I was desperate. Immediately walking into Detammy I was impressed, it is clean, bright, and spacious. Tammy and Tatiana both welcomed me in and Tatiana did a very through consultation. She took her time, listened to my needs and went above expectations. I am SO happy with my cut and color that I have found my new go to salon. Trust me, go to Detammy!!! read more

I just had the Japanese hair straightening done with tammy last week and I absolutely love it. My husband randomly went into her salon for a haircut a few weeks ago and loved the hair cut. He also found out that she does a japanese hair straightening and I decided to try it. Tammy is very nice, professional, and great at her work. She even squeezed in my husband for another hair cut while working on me. Highly recommend! read more
