So--I've been going to Garbo for maybe a year and a half. Prior to that, I was a LOYAL Aveda…read moreInstitute patron, like decades--I figured, help a student out, get a discounted service--everybody wins! (I still recommend the institute for folks who don't mind being in a student-centered, learning environment). That said--Garbo has been a true difference maker. My stylist, Jay, is a consummate professional and just the best for this curly haired chic! Case in point--a while ago I somewhat nervously asked about bangs and after a consultation with him, I said "why not?" ...For all you curly haired folks out there, you KNOW how quickly bangs can go wrong. And--I've got NOTHING but compliments on them. I trust him implicitly and he's done an amazing job gradually lifting my dark brown to a lighter but still warm shade. Muah!

I've been a loyal customer for over a decade. While I love the nail technician, Ashley, who is very…read morelovely and did a great job with the application, the gel polish began peeling off in less than 24 hours. I found myself back at the salon the next day to have them redone; unfortunately, the gel polish had not held. The same issue reoccurred the following day. I called the salon and spoke with the technician, who said she didn't know why it kept happening. She felt uncomfortable asking Marsha, the owner, to reimburse me. I offered to speak with the owner and requested a reimbursement for the service (not the generous 25% tip I had left). Instead of listening and working to resolve the issue, Marsha seized the opportunity to correct me about the kind of salon she operates, which felt condescending and unnecessary, especially considering our long-standing customer relationship. It was particularly frustrating to hear her claim that her salon only uses quality polish, which contradicted the fact that she uses an inferior product. Her tone was dismissive and borderline insulting. I expected fair treatment for a service that failed almost immediately. Instead, Marsha suggested that my nails were in poor condition. I explained that I'm new to using gel products, and even her technician had remarked that my nails were in good shape, suggesting I could continue using gel polish for several months. Then, I should consider taking a break between services to let my nails rest. Unfortunately, instead of addressing the issue, Marsha chose to hang up on me. It's disappointing to be treated this way as a loyal client. I love my hair stylist, the esthetician, and the nail technician, but I question continuing to use Garbo for my salon services. Good customer service should include respect and accountability, especially from the owner.

OK can I share with you guys some thing? At the beginning of Covid I went to get my hair colored…read moreand as you can see from the left it's not right. since Covid pretty much happened right after that I didn't care. I sat with that brassy color all this time. But every time I looked in the mirror I was like what the f---k I have orange hair. Anyway, since it's the new year I decided I want to start like combing my hair again and wearing non-sweat pants etc. etc. I called up Heather Olexa and she toned my hair the F down. I am no longer orange and for her I'm grateful. You're crazy if you don't go see this girl for your cut and color.She only colored me today but I plan on going back in January for her to chop off my mane.

I moved to Austin a year ago and it's been a challenge to find someone to cut my hair. Not that…read morethere aren't great places... but it's just finding that one where you click with the person and you want to keep going back. And with Amy here at Nines Men's Grooming... I have found that place! I don't have much hair, but that doesn't mean I don't want it to look good. I've been to several places throughout Austin; some places had me in and out of their chair in what seemed like seconds. Other places just gave me the impression I was in the wrong place and others were just "ok". I came across the "Nines" reviews and figured, I'll give another place a try. And one of the hardest things is who to pick to cut your hair. I randomly picked Amy but clearly that was a great choice. I'm sure everyone working here does amazing work, but I was fortunate to choose Amy. She is very friendly and was ready the minute I walked in the door. Very accommodating, she offered me water, soda, beer... I just had the water but I think next time I'll enjoy a drink! Before I moved to Austin, I had been going to the same person for years so it was very easy. All I had to do was make an appointment and she knew exactly what to do. I'm one of those who prefer the person cutting to give me suggestions on what they think would look good and Amy was more than happy to offer suggestions. I wanted to cover up a little gray and it had been months since my last haircut and it was looking pretty shaggy so I needed a complete "overhaul". Amy seemed to understand what I was looking for and made some recommendations which I went for. The haircut was enjoyable; I've had other people who are sometimes a bit careless but Amy is very gentle and thorough. When it came to the coloring... again, she took the lead. I had complete trust in her and she used a color she felt would look best and it was perfect! And at the end, she did the neck shave which is so underrated. It took awhile but I have found a great place to get my hair taken care of and hopefully I can keep going to Amy.

I'm a dog groomer and my back had been killing me the past few days and I nearly cried tears of joy when I realized their hair dryers had a massage function.

However, my last visit with new stylist Belle left me with complete shock and disappointment. We clearly did not have same idea of color, but I also ended up with a refresh butterfly cut with terribly uneven layers all around my hair, and hair around my face chopped back to my ears because she wanted to remove weight. It was also extremely texturized leaving holes through out my hair. I for sure had damage but walked out with even more somehow, and didn't even realize how bad because she didn't do the included styling at the end (realized at home this cut was impossible to style!). They offered a corrective service which I appreciated after spending $400, and knowing it's a small business. Salon owner was nice but ultimately the color was still off (explicitly asked for a shadow root but just had lots of chaotic bleach), and cut hair was already cut and too far gone to blend apparently. Senior stylist who was correcting also continuously yanked my hair in the bowl, saying she had to in order to get the toner on everything. Super painful and I don't even have a sensitive head. Didn't realize how bad and uneven it still was all around until getting another corrective service at another salon recently. Such an uncomfortable experience overall and definitely not the salon for me. Hope others have a better experience or go to Wheelhouse ATX who has been nothing but kind, professional, and very skilled at handling a very messy correction
