Great spot for boys (6 and 8 years old) fades!!! She is quick and does a great job as long as you show a pic.

So I posted a review and was told I was never in your shop so I've included a receipt from my bank. You gave me a bad haircut uneven and caused my scalp to be extremely irritated you can see both of those things by looking at the photos. read more

Ok to start off, the service was late. She was 15 mins late to the appointment. I had gotten there on time. After she called me in, after another 5 mins of me waiting for her to get her stuff together, I finally sat down. I showed her a reference pic of curtain bangs in which it was clear how long I wanted them. She started to straighten my hair, and I was scared that she was gonna poke my in the face with the straightener. She then started cutting the hair, and she kept cutting them until they got "even" , expect the bangs ended up way to short, and totally different from the reference pic. After I got home, I realized that the left side of the bangs was shorter than the right side. The vibe was not the best, and they could have done WAY better. read more

Buckle up, this is long, but this was honestly, the worst hair experience I've ever had. It's been 4 months and I'm still picking up the pieces and trying to fix my hair. If you want a simple haircut, this place is fine. If you want something more complex, I would 100% pass. I went in asking for the inspiration pic and left looking like I let my 10 year old try to color my hair. 1st warning sign was that they were able to get me in on the Saturday before Mother's Day 2 days before. But I had seen so many raving reviews on area Facebook groups that I figured maybe I shouldn't worry. I explained what I wanted on the phone and she said no problem. I got there about 20 minutes early and first impressions were not good. Every bone in my body said run, but I was there getting a cut for my daughter as well so I didn't want to stick her out. The place was HOT. The doors were open to help with that, so there were bugs hopping around everywhere, including a spider that ended up crawling up my daughters leg. It smelled really strong of perm chemicals as well - I'm not sure that place has any ventilation. They took my daughter in first but 20 min later I was still waiting to be seen even though I was going to be sitting through some long processing times. I finally asked when we were going to get started and the lady (whom I assume is the owner) sat me down in another chair. 40 minutes later, the lady who had just finished cutting my daughters hair asks how short I want my hair cut even though I wasn't there for a haircut. I told her what I was there for (including showing her the picture), and she went to the same lady that sat me down who started working on my hair, assuring me she could get my hair just the way I wanted it. Don't worry, she said. Application was sketchy at best. Random pieces of foil, bleach dripping down my face ruining my sweater, patches completely missed. I kept thinking it was part of the process and that she would be back to finish. I finally asked when she would be touching up the roots. She eventually returned for that, quickly smudging burgundy hair color on my roots even though I had told her I didn't want any more red in my hair. She said it's brown, and to not worry. Somehow, things kept getting worse. When it came time to rinse my hair, she kept rubbing her bleach covered fingers across my cheek as she tried to rush through the process, getting bleach in my eyes. I told her it was burning and she just said almost done. The toner she applied burned my scalp so bad, and she got that in my eyes too. I ended up running into bathroom to rinse my eyes. There were no paper towels or soap for that matter, so I just grabbed toilet paper in a hurry to try and stop the burning I walked out of the bathroom and could hear another customer arguing with the lady at the front, saying her appointment was an hour ago and that had they known it was going to take that long, they should have told her. That lady literally left in tears. It was so bad my daughter asked me why the lady was crying. I returned back to the chair to get combed and styled and the lady kept saying how my hair looked just like the picture (which it clearly doesn't). I pointed out there were gaps of hair uncolored, roots untouched, so much red, overall I was not happy. "Just like picture". She asked my 10 yr old daughter if she liked it and of course she is 10 so she didn't want to hurt any ones feelings and said it was fine. I explained it was not like the picture and it looked really bad. She agreed to fix it, telling me to come back in 3 days and that it would take only 30 minutes, no problem. Needless to say, I left and never returned. I've spent hundreds of dollars in product and hair appointments trying to fix the terrible coloring and repair my hair. I would avoid this place, no matter how wonderful the feedback is online unless you're prepared to deal with the aftermath. read more

I was a good customer but the salon needs upkeep, cleaning and proper sanitation of equipment.

It was very hard to give a try on a new place and have my hair cut after 5 years of doing it for the same person... I'm in a new city and everything is new to me. I decided to take a chance with Lynn because is very close to where I live and in case I need to go and my husband can't drive me, I can go walking or with my skaters. I asked for basic trim, one inch basically and she did a good job, I may come back for a dye or keratin, but so far she was real good at her craft. read more

To say Lynn did a great job is an understatement! My hair is incredibly fine, thick, and black as the night. Every other hair stylist I have been to has managed to fry my hair or damage my hair when they tried to get me the desired platinum blonde balayage I've always wanted. It took my almost a year to grow out my hair from the damage the last hairstylist cost me. Needless to say, I was incredibly apprehensive and was very stern in my expectations of what I wanted while still keeping my hair healthy and thick. Lynn not only listened to my concerns, but she said she would refund me 100% if I am not satisfied with the results - I gave her a shot and Ohmyheart, she delivered! This is exactly the platinum blonde balayage I wanted that still looked smooth and healthy. 15/10 would recommend! Best times to get Lynn's undivided attention is early in the day on weekdays and mornings on weekends. read more

i guess this is how the respond to my review. just told my honest review. also here's my before and after to my bangs they apparently "didn't cut" read more

See all

This place is filthy, first of all. Secondly: here's what I asked for and what I got. They did only color, not cut. Why does this requested chunky balayage look like a cap pull through all over highlight that changed the whole color of my hair? They also can't accommodate someone who is 5'7", requiring me to slouch/half lay down in the chair for an extended part of the appointment. I can't even imagine what a cut from this place would have ended up like. I would have run away mid appt if I could have. Truly awful, awful experience. Pics attached. read more

I've come here twice and been made to wait for 30 min despite making an appointment. The haircuts are not worth the wait.

I never leave reviews (I'm always very understanding and love to support small businesses) so let this be your warning. My experience was ridiculous. After talking for about 30 seconds, she grabbed scissors (which were not in sanitizer btw) and very suddenly and aggressively started cutting my hair. I was a little thrown bc she didn't brush or wet my hair but I was trusting the process. However, she increasingly became aggressive, using a comb to brush and cut in sharp quick motions- I swear she wasn't even looking. At one point, she had combed all my hair across my forehead and was cutting randomly?? She charged me double than the website states, but there's no signs in the salon and I just wanted to leave. When I got home, every section of my hair was a different length- which I wish was a dramatization. This is crazy because my hair was already layered and I just asked for an inch off and keep the layers. I have side bangs and not only did she cut them unevenly and too short, but the hair that is about 4 inches from the top of my head (which was the length of my regular hair) was cut as short as my bangs. The "layers" are insane- there was a one and a half difference between the bottom of my hair and the next layer it looked so bad!? It's not cohesive in the slightest, the hair is uneven on the sides and her scissors damaged my hair. the lady who cut my hair either didn't know what she was doing or truly didn't care. I have to wear my hair up all the time now (and my bangs are still too short to be put up) so I'm desperately letting it grow out. I recently got the bottom layer cut off to be even with the next layer, but it's going to take a year for me to grow it out and get it even again. The lady who helped fix my hair was appalled. I've never been mad about a hair cut bc it's just haircut but this place should be embarrassed. I was new to Austin and chose the first place closest to me, but I will never go back and you shouldn't go either. PS I would love to include photos but the owner of this place seems to love harassing their Yelp reviewers so I'm using my friends account read more

I needed something quick and chose this place because it was the only thing open on a Sunday past 4pm and I'm glad I did. They were very sweet and did a great job. My hair color was perfect and just feels much healthier. I will return read more

Great price and excellent root retouch! Very pleased to find this salon. Sometimes you just need your roots retouched and want to get in and out without spending an arm and a leg. This is the spot. Give them a call and get in the chair! read more

I have been going to Image Hair Salon for some time, now. I have been a hair Diva throughout my life going to high-priced salons and I rarely leave left feeling satisfied. Then I visited Image Hair Salon where I met Lynn! She is so amazing that I see her every single week!!!! We alternate weekly services which include: hair color, glossing, highlights blow dry/style, up-do's, and applying my tape-in extensions. I could not be more pleased with my hair; and honestly, I have NEVER been less than thrilled with my hair since I found Image Hair Salon! And don't forget, you're speaking to a past-life true salon DIVA whom was rarely fully satisfied. I am a natural redhead; however, I prefer a more cool shade of burgundy/violet. I am also fair skinned; so, at the same time I cannot go too dark. Lynn Lynn, the owner, is very talented colorist and stylist. She has created a special color formula that makes my long hair, with Hair Dreams extensions, a beautiful shade of cool burgandy from the roots to the ends! This is very a very difficult for many experienced colorists. I love Image Hair Salon because Lynn is such a good person. She is a kind and caring woman whom would go out of her way to help anyone. I am very thankful that Image Hair Salon and Lynn have become part of my life! BTW, to the person falsely accusing Lynn's salon of being filthy, that is simply not true. I was actually in the salon on 07AUG and the customer whom complained came in with blue hair! Practically from the time this customer arrived, she was complaining and taking pictures of everything. This lady made everyone feel so stressed out. I was so glad to get out of the salon that day! Lynn is very clean. many times I go in after hours to get my hair done and she is frequently laundering towels, and cleaning. So, if you want everything shiny and new and direct from the factory, I'm certain you will pay for that somewhere else! I am proud of Lynn because she insists that everyone wear a mask in her salon. On numerous occasion, I have seen obnoxious clients give Lynn blow-back for her mask mandate. One jerk even reminded her how many referrals he had sent her way. Lynn, thank you for protecting everyone that comes in your store from COVID. read more

(I posted this on google and thought I should post it here as well!) I get a haircut once a year because I can NEVER find a hairdresser that can cut exactly what I'm asking for! So once a year I google the best rated and most fanciest hair salons and go with the highest rated one in whatever area I'm living in at the time. This year I'm on Anderson mill. Last year I went with green alley salon, disappointed. The year before was milk and honey spa in the arboretum, huge disappointment! And many other fancy expensive places in the past. Every single time I brought the same 2 pictures of the style I wanted and each time I got something that wasn't even close to what I wanted. This time I found image hair salon, a lot of good reviews but not fancy or expensive so I was a little skeptical, but I decided to give this place a chance because with covid 19 being crazy right now there wasn't a lot of places open on a Sunday. I call and make an appointment and to my surprise the hairdresser (really nice Asian woman, I never got her name unfortunately.) can see me in an hour! So I get to my appointment, show her the 2 pictures of what I'm wanting and right away she gets to cutting my hair. I had really long and thick hair, like all the way down to my bottom long! Every other hairdresser has huffed and puffed about dealing with my hair but she didn't mind and actually said how beautiful it was! She was so fast and precise, you could tell she has been cutting hair for a while now! It was amazing to watch how she did my hair because no other hairdresser I have gone to has put THAT much effort into my hair cut like she did! When she was done I asked her how much she wanted and she said $25! I was in shock! I said "what! That's all!?" I couldn't walk out just paying 25 so we agreed on 35 and a tip. I have gone to the fanciest salons and paid $75+ for a hair cut I was completely dissatisfied with so to pay so little for the hair cut I have been looking for for so long felt like a steal! Lol. Now I can wash my hair, let it air dry, and it's perfectly curled and styled just like that. Exactly what I've been wanting for so many years! I've officially found my new hairdresser! read more

Image Hair Salon - I literally let my hair air dry and it naturally ends up like this because of the perfectly cut layers in my hair. I love it! - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

I since been back for a total of 4 visits, mostly trims. All of the ladies there have touched my hair, and I've been happy with all of them- they've taken me from hip-length to armpit-length over the course of months. It was time. My last stylist was Van and she's now my girl- I'm so happy with the long layered cut she gave me. She's very thorough and precise, not to mention a sweetie. The prices have slightly increased (from $40 trim + color to a $25 cut alone) but whatever. It's totally reasonable. I've built up enough confidence to try scheduling an ombre with her... wish me luck! PS: Don't necessarily expect a wash with your appointment. I walk in with clean, tangle-free hair. read more

I love Lynn & Van.. sweetest women ever. I come for a 20 min wash, cut and layer every few months and always have a good laugh w these ladies and leave with fresh hair. no frills place. If you're not high maintenance and prefer to pop in and out, this is your spot read more

Workers need to be retrained- either that or they're rushing so badly they just don't care

This Is the Best Hair Salon in Austin! It's always a pleasure going there & I go get my Haircut there every Month! The Girls there do a Great Job & cut My Hair so perfect & they always listen to what I want done too! I'm going to have some Highlights done next month & I know They will do a Great Job! Everyone there is so Friendly & Do a Terrific Job! You will love the Good Service! MJ read more

Hair cut was not great and service was poor. She cut on dry hair and didn't maintain my layers I asked for. I left because I got tired of trying to explain while she tried to convince me that it's fine. wont be going back. read more

I love Image Hair Salon! I found it through the recommendation of my close friend who has been coming here for years. Lynn is my stylist and she's a miracle worker. I have been coming here for over a year now and every time I leave happy and gorgeous. I started going grey at 23 (I'm 32 now) so I need root touch-ups every six weeks or so. I usually just get a trim, but Lynn has also given me a long bob before which I rocked for like 6 months before deciding to grow it back out. read more

Image Hair Salon - I got probably 8 inches cut off and it looks fabulous! Thanks Lynn! - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

Had faith in this shop, but I was totally disappointed. Paid $115 for my hair to look exactly the same color how I came in there & uneven cut! Now my hair is super damaged. Will not be coming back! TOLD THEM IT WASNT WHAT I WANTED BUT I HAD SOMEWHERE TO BE read more

Great color, horrible hair cut. Stylist didn't allow enough time for my haircut. Her next client arrived. Stylist rushed through my haircut and it looks that way. Won't be back! read more

If I could've given 0 stars I would. They advertise they do special occasion hair when they shouldn't. I went in at my appointment time to get my hair done. They made me wait close to 30 minutes before taking me back. When I got back they didn't even brush out my hair before starting. She simply braided my hair (not at all what I wanted and something I could have done myself). Because she didn't brush it there were tangles (I have long hair and it was windy) and she would yank them out. I am not tender headed as I've always had long hair but the way she was pulling was hurting a lot. Then to tie off the end of my hair she picked up a hair tie from the table that had hair wrapped around it THAT WAS NOT MINE and proceeded to put it in my hair. After seeing I was displeased with her work she offered to do an up-do instead. She just bunched the end of my braid into a ball and pinned it. Although she put in pins she did not put them in the correct spots to hold my hair tight. When I got home my hair was already falling out and the ends of my hair (from the braid) were sticking straight out, she didnt even hide them. Most of the pins were just placed in my hair and started falling out shortly after leaving as well. Needless to say, I had to go buy my own hair products (I was from out of town) and quickly do my own hair, luckily I know how. Please do NOT go here, waste of time and money!!! Update: since visiting this place, I have been watching the reviews on this app. Every single time someone leaves a bad review the owner or someone gets defensive instead of taking responsibility for their workers and the services they provide. It's also a common trend for the owner to say he doesn't see any of these people on the list who visited the salon. Once or twice okay but every single person who says they had a bad experience? I don't think so. This is NOT how a business should be run. Poor management and poor services. read more

Friendly staff, great service, reasonable prices. Couldn't ask for a better place for a hair cut.

Had a cut n color really looks professional since I always ask for a simple layered trim. I'm not too picky as long as it is done ok. It took Lynn to color in 5 mins, 30+ mins wait, n 10 mins to str8 n cut. She would do whatever asked. The price for haircut is less than $20. Best time I found to see her is on weekday before 4pm or super early weekend. It is my go to place for a work haircut! read more

Lynn has been doing my hair for years. She is professional and always does a great job. I have dark thick hair and she gives me great highlights that doesn't look orange. I also does the keratin treatment and I love it!!! Give her a shot! read more

I went in and asked for bangs and a small trim. I expressed I wanted to keep the length repeatedly. She assured me that I would but ended up giving me layers and now my thick beautiful hair is gone. I am devastated. read more

Reply: I guess the worker named "Bich" just told everyone she is the owner then. Check your cameras and you'll know exactly which customer I am. She was the only person working on a Sunday. Btw y'all "Bich" is not me bashing her name. It's a Vietnamese name pronounced like "bit". As soon as I walked in this place I got bad vibes and I should have left. It smelled like a gas station restroom in there, even with a mask on. I've never had a hair cut as bad as this. I told the owner of the salon to cut a specific length in a specific shape. What did she do? She cuts it to how she likes it. Like WTH bro, I have to live with the hair cut, not you, so just do it the way I want it. She never consulted me to ask for my opinion. I never asked for layers, I never asked for face framing but she did it anyways. Now I look like a 1970s actress. I confronted her and she said she thought it would look nicer this way. But the fact that she violated my trust by never consulting me with any decisions is what felt so wrong. It may look nice to her but that is not my style. It's not how I like to wear my hair. She apologized and told me to stop crying. She'll give me free haircuts and dye my hair for me, blah blah blah...Thank you lady but I'm never coming back here. If you decide to come here, may you have better luck than I did. read more

I recently had an appointment with Lynn at this salon for a Keratin Treatment. Super happy with the results! She did an excellent job and my hair turned out amazing! Will be going back for a haircut soon and will definitely be having the treatment as often as necessary. I highly recommend Imagine Hail Salon. read more

I would never go back to this salon if you paid me. i had to book a last minute haircut and blow out after a scheduling issue at another salon and this was literally the only place available. ad I walked in, the place reeked of perm chemicals . I sat down to wait and watched the stylists cut 3 ppls hair before me.... complete hack jobs. I was applauded and made the decision to just have a blow out style, absolutely no cut.... i then walked to the back and saw dirty, wet towels strewn about. the walls and floors were filthy. the stylist washed my hair once and said she used conditioner, but I don't think she did. there were towers of dirty, hair-filled curlers. No idea how the health department hasn't shut this place down. The blow out was awful. I had to ask 3 times for her to completely dry my hair. Her products were in unlabeled jars so I have no idea what she actually put in my hair. Today, the curl is completely gone and frizz as taken over. I highly do not recommend this salon... surprised they are allowed to have licenses read more

I rely heavily on Yelp since I am new to the area so this is an extremely honest review. I went to Lin (Lynn?) a month ago for a root touch up. I am not tender headed and have a very high pain tolerance and I have never had someone pull my hair the way she did. It was while coloring, shampooing and styling. I thought she did an ok job and loved the price so I figured I would give it another chance. I went back on Saturday and again, I was dying when I left there. I said something to her this time on several occasions and even said "OUCH" a few times and she said I don't drink enough water and probably wear my hair in a ponytail every day. I literally drink water all day and style my hair daily for work. I had her do blonde balayage this time with a root touch up and trim the ends. The blonde is a little orange/yellow color and the trim I asked for took off about 3 inches. I specifically said I was trying to grow it out more. I can get over a little extra length taken off because it's hair..it grows. However, I do not want to dread getting my hair done and end the experience with a massive headache for 2 days. I felt I was being manhandled and had shampoo and water flung in my eyes while laying in the shampoo bowl. Also, my appointment was at 8:30 and nobody was there by 8:45 so I left. She called me and I turned around and went back. Between that and how uncomfortable it was, I will not be back. read more

Quick and great service paid 110'for a color and highlights, you literally can't beat the price especially in north Austin.

I found this salon on yelp and decided to go to them because of their five stars rating. My experience was traumatic. My hair cut took less than 15 mins and my hair came out so uneven and looks horrific. My bang looks horrible and that I can't even looked myself in the mirror and that I have to a another haircut the next day. I never had this bad hair cut ever in my life. I even cried after seeing my hair. Prior to the cut I thought me and the stylist understood each other to keep the length but she chopped off 2-3inches off my hair and was saying how my hair had a lot of split ends. She kept wanting to cut my hair shorter and I kept saying no. I should've left the minute she cut my bangs but I didn't have a gut to. I guess you get what you for $18 haircut. DO NOT COME HERE!! read more

Lynn cut my sisters hair today and did an awesome job, she is so talented and good at what she does. My sister hasn't cut her hair in 2 years and felt very nervous but Lynn made her feel calm and confident she even suggested that my sister can donate her hair to cancer so she got really excited at the thought of helping someone! Thank you very much Lynn for your help! You are very good at what you do and how you do it. We appreciate it so much! read more

I have been seeing Lynn for years. I usually have a short cut and she does an excellent job making me look good. I completely trust her. She has always given me good advice. She is also very fast and has the best prices! She really could charge double! I have sent several friends to her and they also became regulars. 5 years ago she even did my hair for my wedding. She is awesome! read more

I came here on a whim after reading their reviews on yelp. I called and made an appointment for the same day. I went in and it was empty which made me a little bit nervous, but I was quickly greeted and sat down at a station. I had my 2 month old daughter with me and they didn't blink just ooo'd over how cute she is. The woman quickly washed cut and styled my hair for only 30$! She was so sweet and funny and did an amazing job! I'm so happy and have already recommended them to friends and family. So surprised they're not slanmed! read more
