I've been going to Corey for about 4 years and I wouldn't trust anyone else. My hair always feels…read moreand looks fresh for when I step out to get on with my day. My curls continue to be happy and healthy because of his recommendations and care. It's a bonus that he's talked me out of a few bad hair choices and encouraged me to take a risk when I was feeling hesitant about a shorter haircut. If I could give Corey and his salon 7000 stars, I would. You won't be disappointed with him or anyone there- from the moment you walk in, you're treated like royalty. The vibe is always relaxed- trust that you'll be pampered!

I've spent more than my fair share of time and money in salons across multiple cities and states,…read moreand Salon MINK is still one of my absolute favorites. I first came here as a Bobcat--IYKYK. Young and broke, but protective of my curls--and my very first stylist was Ray Reeves. The only things bigger than his talent were his personality and his heart. I trusted him instantly, and if you know anything about curls, that says everything. I moved away after graduation, but when I landed back within driving range, I didn't hesitate--clocking 45 minutes each way and passing plenty of other salons along the way. (Bombshell Beautique--you could never.) By then, Ray had passed, and I began seeing Corey Casey, his partner and co-owner. It was immediately clear why they built this place together. Corey is every bit as kind, talented, and grounded. I give him a general idea, he hands me a mimosa, and then works his magic. Shorter, longer, lighter, darker, touch-ups, tighter curls, or full blowouts--I've never left looking or feeling anything less than fabulous. From the neck up, anyway. One of the things I appreciate most is that Corey takes his craft seriously--ongoing education, advanced training, and a commitment to excellence not just for himself, but for the whole team. So no matter who you're booked with, you're in good hands. I even got my boyfriend to start coming here, because they've got a solid barber, too. The salon itself is always welcoming, always stylish, and somehow still relaxed. The staff is lovely, the product lines are legit, and the whole experience feels like a proper treat without ever being stuffy. If I had to complain? The parking lot! Tiny, cramped, and shared with other businesses. But hey--that's downtown San Marcos, so leave five minutes for creative parking. Ten if you've ever failed a driving exam. Also? The bathroom is a Dolly Parton shrine worthy of pilgrimage on its own. Suffice it to say: this salon understands the assignment. Sadly, I've moved away again and (begrudgingly) found a new salon and stylist. But there will always be a big, glamorous, perfectly highlighted place in my heart that holds Ray, Corey, and Salon MINK.

Then I went to look around and another wonderful lady, Fayth (sp?) was so sweet and so helpful! I was debating on a urban decay palette (which I ended up buying) and she highly recommended it. We got to chatting about makeup and she was telling me about other palettes and such. I told her I'm a makeup artist so I was shopping more so for makeup for clients. Thank you so much Fayth!

My 4th different Benefit brow bar at Ulta...went to this location as New Braunfels location wasn't…read moreopen that day. Do not recommend. Girl was very nice, but young and unfortunately, probably just inexperienced. She did no brow mapping--just started right off with wax. Somehow accidentally got wax in my eyelashes (a first in my many years of eyebrow waxing). She covered brows at the end with brow tint, so I couldn't really see that my arches weren't at all addressed and ends of brows still had several stray brows showing. Disappointed.

I've had pretty good experiences with both Karmen and Roxie. Helpful and fun to talk to!read more

Booking was super easy, and when my job unexpectedly needed me earlier, she went out of her way to fit me in almost an hour early so I could still make it to work. The salon was clean, cozy, and welcoming. She took time to learn about my hair history, lifestyle, and goals instead of just focusing on the haircut itself. Throughout the appointment, she explained every product and technique she used, taught me how to better care for my curls, and even recommended affordable product options instead of only expensive salon brands. The haircut turned out amazing, and when I later realized I wanted it shorter, she squeezed me in the very next morning on short notice and fixed it for free. I've paid far more for curly cuts that weren't half this thorough. Absolutely worth every penny.
