Allie was so sweet and fun to talk to. Not to mention she did an amazing haircut on me (curly bixie). She diffused my hair and made my curls pop so much. Love her! The salon itself was so fun too! Great music :3 and good vibes all around! read more

Liza is a color correction goddess! I came in with banded and stained hair from my botched at-home bleach job and she was able to fix it without damaging my hair. Then we added a vibrant blue streak. It turned out so pretty! She's also great for neurodivergent clients, and helped me find accommodations to make sitting in the chair for a long time comfortable for me, and even offered me stim toys! read more

I have extremely fine hair and it is thinner on one side than the other. It is difficult to make it look good and hold a cut. Beau can seemingly do the impossible and make MY hair look good. He has been cutting my hair for about a year and it has never looked so good! Unfortunately I have moved out of state to The Land of Enchantment. I love it here but I miss Beau. read more

I love this place! I've been in the shop a few times to peruse through their well curated thrift selection. However, today I stopped in to ask about a haircut. Gabby carefully studied my hair and discussed in detail what needed to be done. There were several corrections that needed to be made to my cut. I went in for medium to long layers. I came out looking fabulous. My hair looks so healthy now. I don't normally write reviews, but this place is so awesome, and has such a great vibe, and Gabby is truly talented! read more

Allie absolutely ROCKS! She's super enthusiastic and has such a fun vibe! I wanted calico hair and they absolutely nailed it! It turned out exactly how I envisioned it. I also have really curly hair, so finding Allie was a huge deal for me! They're so good with curly hair! I WILL be back!! read more

Thank you Liza for always giving me exactly what I ask for!!! I've been going to her for over a year now and she delivers every time. Long haired girlies.... Liza is a conservative cutter who has never chopped me, not once I feel like she's on my hair journey with me. Love her so much. read more

The service here was absolutely incredible. I had been in a rush for a concert the other day, and they were so quick to help even though they had appointments booked for an hour after I needed my hair done. The final look made me feel so confident! The atmosphere inside was incredible, people there made it so much better as well. I meant to go back the next day and thank my stylist Jackie and couldn't, but everyone here is truly so lovely. Wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Great haircut w/ Gabriella!! Added on a deep conditioning treatment as well. The stylist did an excellent job!

Spent way too much on products but because I TRULY WANTED them all. Looove x Quality salon with loads of character combined with super cute vintage store of curated items. read more

Liza did a great job! Vibes were superb with the theater seating and good music. The power went out but was swiftly fixed. Awesome experience read more

I parked my car in the lot next to the building of Scissor Sisters. I went into the salon and was in there for three minutes. In that time, my car was booted. The parking attendant for the Michi Ramen parking lot sits at the back of the lot in his car, hiding, and when he sees a customer take one step onto the sidewalk of Scissor Sisters, he runs over and puts a boot on the car. The sign saying the lot is not for Scissor Sisters was intentionally placed low, so it is under your hood, and you can't see it when you park. While I was in the parking lot trying to figure out how to pay $100 to get the boot off, another woman parked next to me, took one step onto the sidewalk, and he booted her too. To make matters worse, the attendant was mocking us, telling us to f*** off, and said he was making a lot of money today. The person at the front desk was warning people not to park there, but that is not enough. If you have walked to the front door of Scissor Sisters, you get booted. The person at the front desk said he told the owner his customers were getting booted, and he said there was nothing he could do. I think there is a whole hell more he could be doing. Maybe put a big Visible sign on his property warning his customers that there is a predatory parking attendant in the lot? Don't go to this salon! read more

i went in for the first time to this salon hoping for an affirming experience from some colorful people. i can tell you i was not disappointed. i am an autistic queer adult who's only ever had frustrating experiences at salons/barbers, not only were they all so friendly and helpful but my experience with the stylist Colby (like the cheese ;) ) was one of the most delightful experiences i've ever had sitting in the chair. They explained the whole process step by step and was super eager to talk me through their choices and helped me feel validated and excited to get my head worked on. i had requested the "transformational cut" knowing i have curlier hair and needed a little more time explaining myself. they went above and beyond with some of my unique styling requests. the washing basins are super comfortable if you're prone to neck and back issues and the supplies they use are fragrant but pleasant easier on the nose smells. they seem to specialize well in playful hairstyles and colors and excel with service, reasonable prices, and friendly stylists. thank you colby for the amazing experience and listening to my needs closer than anyone has before. and thank you to the salon for hosting such a beautiful environment in such unsure times. i will be seeking this place out again for my next haircut. read more

10/10 Ive been in Austin all my life and this is the cutest salon! Great staff and products. Gabby was amazing I am soo happy with my hair! She explained everything to me in a way that made sense was very gentle and friendly and did an amazing job on my hair! Love! read more

One of the best experiences at a hair salon I have ever had. Taryn was amazing and I would reccomend her to anyone and everyone. I am not one to trust anyone with my hair, and its been a really long time since I have given anyone the chance to cut and color it. Taryn is a wonderful person who has an amazing talent. She will take her time and get in her artistic zone when she is doing your hair and its amazing. All of the staff is really sweet and it feels like such a safe and comfortable environment. I have coarse, wavy hair that is really thick and I struggle finding a hairstyle that will look good on me and one that is resonably functional. Taryn absolutely knocked it out of the park and took so much weight out of my hair and did exactly what i wanted. She also touched up my color with toners and mixed the perfect color. My hair feels light and bouncy for the first time ever. The products they used were also amazing. Not to mention for all this love and attention to detail I felt like I was being pranked when I was told the price, it was so affordable. I would pay Taryn anything!! I am absolutely so excited to have found this salon and Taryn. She is new to the shop and has so much artistic ability its easy to fall in love with her quickly. I am so excited to come back here and will be returning. Not to mention I also bought the cutest little orange tray here weeks ago, the vintage side of the store has the cutessssst stuff and also has great prices!!! read more

I got my hair colored purple with Lyssa today and I am thrilled with my results! All the staff were super friendly and accommodating. Would return! I will say that if you have a lot of hair like me, your service will most likely take a long time. I anticipated that and it was no problem for me, but you may want to clear out a chunk of your day. read more

I love the people, the shop and the atmosphere. I brought my 17 year old here to get a transformational cut and but they decided on just a trim.....it's one of the worst haircuts we have ever seen. They don't even want to post a picture on here because they are so upset with the cut. 120 bucks down the drain. So sad. read more

I see Beau. He does a great job with my short hair. He can be a bit difficult to schedule with, so I sometimes pop in to see Jualdo for a touch up -- they are also fantastic. I really love that this is not just a queer inclusive space, but one that celebrates queerness in all of its forms. read more

I saw Liza back in July and she was amazing, I'm not very good at putting what I like about my hair into words but she walked through it with me and ended up styling it exactly how I wanted. She also checked in on me repeatedly throughout the haircut to make sure I was doing okay sensory-wise (I'm autistic) and gave me some great hair advice! Will definitely keep coming back, I loved it! read more

I came in for a haircut from Jualdo. AmazingAfter a brief consultation with a couple of photos his sorcery manifested the perfect haircut. Very clean and staff and clients all wearing masks. There are even clear partitions between stylists chairs. Jualdo explained he is there late afternoons to evenings and it's perfect for my schedule. The salon is incorporated inside a vintage shop with some amazing finds. read more

Wow, Mirada was a fantastic stylist and I absolutely love my haircut! I was very happy that she was 100% mask-on during these covid19 pandemic times, and it was great to see her sanitize her station and my chair before she escorted me over. Miranda was professional, knowledgeable, and explained her methods and haircut ideas to me. She was very personable, friendly, and I really loved chatting with her! I also enjoyed the shampoo station - it was significantly more comfortable than any others I've experienced because I didn't have to strain my neck during the shampoo. I highly recommend Miranda at Scissor Sister's Hair Show Salon and will absolutely return! read more

as a queer person i really wanted to be able to support this place and give it a good review, but i feel the need to warn others about my experience. although the environment and people were very welcoming, i received by far the worst haircut i've ever had in my entire life. i showed my barber multiple pictures for reference of people with the same hair texture as me and wasn't able to see what they were doing as they cut my hair (there are no mirrors for some reason?) and now i cant leave the house without a hat. i've thought about just shaving it all off, it's that bad. it's so hard to receive good gender affirming haircuts in texas so i really wanted this place to work out :( so sad to leave a poor review. read more

I took my 13-year-old to get a cut from Hannah. This was a challenging process, because my kid had a clear picture in their head of what they wanted, but no idea how to communicate that. Nevertheless, Hannah and Miranda tag teamed to help understand what my kid was looking for and gave them a fantastic haircut!!! They really went above and beyond. read more

I LOVE MY HAIR!!! Totally recommend this place. Not only is it a chill environment and I got a great cut/style, I also got some good info on how to keep my hair healthy between cuts. Thanks Tammy read more

It was a great experience. Hannah was meticulous and patient with me and my haircut, working not just to make sure that the haircut looked good but that the haircut looked good on ME (and it does!). The experience is fun too--you're up on a stage looking out into the shop where all kinds of interesting people are coming and going. One other stylist was working and there was such a nice vibe between Hannah and the other stylist as well as easy conversation going on all around me. Plus the vintage part of the shop is a feast for the senses--so many cool things to look at and good prices on the vintage items as well. read more

Beau, is incredible! He's kind, had so much knowledge to share with me about my hair and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. And is conscious of time but very thorough with his work. My color and cut turned out beautifully and made an old brassy balayage, into an icy blonde dream! Not to mention, it was the most fun I've ever had getting my hair done. A vibrant salon surrounded by quality vintage pieces for sale is exactly what Austin needed! My next appointment is already on the books and I'm stoked! read more

My sister referred me to Beau and so glad she did! My cut turned out great and he discussed in detail visions for my next color job when the time comes. I know I'm in good hands. He's experienced, knowledgeable, super easy to talk to, and great at what he does. Cool shop too. Good vibes. Go Beau!! read more
