I don't usually leave reviews, but I just had to share how incredible my experience with Seana was. She cut off over 4 inches of my hair and somehow gave me a style that felt so right for me--like it was always meant to be mine. She balayaged the ends and added beautiful, detailed highlights on top, and the color turned out even better than I imagined. What really stood out, though, was how much she truly listened. I never felt rushed or like I was getting a "one-size-fits-all" style. She made me feel seen, understood, and genuinely beautiful--something I haven't felt in a long time. Seana made the whole experience feel warm, comfortable, and even a little magical. I walked out of the salon not just with amazing hair, but with a whole new sense of confidence. I'm so grateful I found her, and I can't recommend her enough to anyone looking for a stylist who really cares. read more

I went in for a much overdue haircut and it turned out amazing! Seana gave me layers and a cut that helped me get rid of my split ends and dullness. I love my layers so much they feel so good and it's nearly a month after my appointment and it still looks and feels just as amazing as when she first cut it. I always love being in her chair I can always count on walking out happy as can be with the results! Can't wait for my next appointment. read more

WildRye Hair Studio - Cut abd color - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

It doesn't get better than this unless you live in Hollywood or New York. Seana is a very skilled and knowledgeable colorist and stylist. At my first appointment Seana fixed the strange color mixes in my hair, and created a perfect blended color for when my roots grow out and the gray starts to show. Now I can't even tell when the gray is growing in. I have light golden brown hair. She takes a good deal of time discussing what you want and and makes wonderful suggestions. She only uses premium products, from color to shampoo & conditioners. read more

Seana is amazing! So attentive and caring. She cares about your hair and wants to create beautiful styles for you without compromising your hair health. She has really helped me cover my grays but with a more natural touch so I don't need touch ups as often. I have very thick and wavy hair and the cuts are always spot on as well. She really listens to want you want and creates a plan for you to achieve that goal. I couldn't recommend her more! read more

I just got a haircut and last min lightening treatment from Seana yesterday and I've ever been happier. Never have I had a hair stylist take the time to talk about my hair goals and explain everything she was doing. Incredibly thorough and felt completely safe in her hands. Apart from her exceptional talent and expertise, she is an incredibly warm person and I loved spending with her. Her studio is also soooo cute with lots of plants and good vibes! read more

This is my second review of Seana as one is just not enough. If you're looking for a haircut that will last months and hold it's shape... she is your girl! I've experienced her ability to cut long hair and shorter length hair and both have had great results. The picture of me with long hair was taken before she cut my hair short but keep in mind that my long hair was cut by her and 6 months before I cut my hair... it still looked great! But I was ready for a change. I'm lovin' my shorter hair and had no fears getting rid of the length as I trusted Seana and her work. I'm so happy with my hair and am so thankful for Seana! read more

Seana gave me such an amazing haircut! I booked a first time appointment and she was amazing. She asked lots of questions about what I want out of a haircut, how I take care of my hair between visits, and what my daily life is like so that she could give me a haircut that really fit my needs. I've never had such a personalized and wonderful experience as I did and it felt like the best value of a haircut that I've ever received. Seana is super sweet, kind, and friendly. She's great at small talk, but is also happy to leave a comfortable silence so that you don't end up feeling like you had to talk and talk and talk. I enjoyed our conversation and getting to know her, but also didn't feel overwhelmed. The space she works in is gorgeous, too. A cute little Victorian house turned into a bunch of hair studios: Her back spot is full of windows and opens right out onto the porch. On a sunny day it was full of sunshine and fresh air and being in there was an excellent experience. Overall she was sooo thorough, thoughtful, and receptive and gave me an excellent haircut. I'll be back!! read more

Seana is the sweetest, super knowledgeable, and very skilled in both cuts and color! I'm very minimal when it comes to daily styling and she has seriously given me the low maintenance hair cut of my dreams! She asks lots of questions and really gets to know your hair goals and what you've liked/disliked about previous cuts and colors. We've created a style (and color!) that I love, allows me to do minimal styling (most days I just air dry!), and still looks amazing even when it's grown out after a few months. I also love that she provides you with info on how to best dry your hair and take care of it as the seasons change. I can't recommend Seana enough! read more

Got a haircut from Seana yesterday and could not be happier with it. My hair is tricky to cut for most people - I have a lot of thick wavy hair - and I have a lot of difficulty finding someone who can give me a haircut suited for my hair type. Seana listened carefully to all my hair woes and did a great job maintaining my layered bob, along with giving me really cute bangs to freshen up my look. She also gave me great tips on how to dry my bangs and maintain my cut. As an added plus, her studio is beautiful, with loads of beautiful plants adorning the space. Throughout my appointment I couldn't help lust over her plants. read more

Perfect haircut and highlights . She spends her time with making sure what you want. Relaxing environment too.

Frankly one of the best hair cuts of my life. I loved all of the products she used (and I'm "not a hair products person") and Seana was super communicative as we figured out what I wanted together. Thanks, Seana! read more

WildRye Hair Studio - Was so obsessed, I couldn't wait to get home to get a photo - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

What an amazing few hours spent with the owner Seana. My very first visit and she spent so long discussing my hair, the cut I was seeking, the color I needed repairing and also plans for future growth. No judgement on past cuts or color, just positve changes she could make. Her studio is delightful with drinks and healthy snacks to be had. I had driven quite a way to find her but I would drive twice that far to be in her chair again. Such a talented young lady and a pure joy to spend a few hours with. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking a really professional hair cut and color with some sweet, gentle conversation thrown in. An added bonus to the entire morning, her salon is totally "green" so NO chemicals are used on your hair and that means NO damage, at last :) read more

I cannot rave enough about Seana! She is above-and-beyond amazing. I've never known how to style my hair or really had "hair confidence" but she has seriously changed my life! She spent so much time talking with me about lifestyle, hair goals, styling ideas, etc. etc. She is an absolute gem, and I'm so grateful to have found her. Now I'm on a hair journey and it has boosted my confidence so much! No matter where you're at with your cut/color situation, she will work with you to make sure you find the right cut, color & style. My friend who sees her, too, has very different hair and she did an amazing job on both of us. Versatile, creative, thoughtful ... Seana is just the absolute best! Adding my before & after photos (which she so graciously took--felt quite glamorous!) as evidence of her skill ... read more

I've been going to Seana for creative color for a few years and she's the only stylist who has actually been able to bring all my rainbow hair dreams to life! Every 3-4 months we change to a completely new color and my hair still stays in good shape. And when my color is 3 months old, I still get compliments on it. As picky as I can be when it comes to my hair, I've never been disappointed leaving her salon. 5 stars all the way - thank you Seana for always nailing it! read more

Walking into Furiosa, the smell was delightful, the music intoxicating and then we started in on my consultation with the owner, Seana. She was thorough, kind and listened to everything I wanted. I also learned today that my hair care should be as thoughtful and intentional as my skincare. I walked out with gorgeous, chocolate brown tresses, a new cut that made my thin, dry hair look luscious, thick and smooth and new products to help heal my hair. I am forever grateful for her knowledge and artistry mixed with a genuinely kind human being. I will be referring all my friends and family! read more

I went to Seana for the first time recently to get a cut after many months of grown out hair. She did a wonderful job of assessing my hair (long/thick/wavy) and my preferences. I love the long layers she put in so far and expect it to grow out well. Recommend! read more

Seana Touhy at Furiosa is the best thing that's happened to my hair in three decades! At my first visit, she was very welcoming and made me feel comfortable and at home immediately. We had a 30-minute consult. She took her time to get to know my hair and me. She asked a lot of questions. I had been told that she really listens, and she does! I discovered that she is focused on quality, and doesn't like to rush through her appointments, preferring to make sure each of her clients is 100 percent satisfied. On top of that, she is a delightful person. I have seen her three times and will be returning soon! read more

Seana is not only a high-quality professional, but also warm and friendly, welcoming you into her studio with a big smile every session. She is an expert at taking an image or an idea and creating something perfect to fit each individual. I always leave Furiosa feeling like a million bucks! read more

Seana is a color magician. I've seen her for years and I get the same great experience every single time. She knows how crazy I get about my hair color and actually listens and works with me for my appointments. She's honest and gives you great expectations and care/styling instructions. Not only am I picky about my color but also about how much product hair stylist's love to dump in your hair. She styles it cute, teaches you what to do and takes what you have to say in to consideration. If you're doing a creative color or a big color change, she's your girl too. Normally I just touch up my roots a very cool toned, dark brown but she's given me hair painting before and I love it. I also see her bright purples and blues and they're beautiful! I think the reason I love seeing her so much is she has a great personality. She's really down to earth and makes you feel like you have her undivided attention, even if she has other clients waiting. Thanks for being cool Seana! I followed her from Edo Salon and travel from SF to Oakland. Piedmont is such an adorable neighborhood and I love how private and BRIGHT her new studio is. If you need a great hairstylist in the East Bay, she's your girl! read more

WildRye Hair Studio - Color and blow out by Seana. She's the best! - Hair Salons Near Me - Austin, Texas

I've been going to Seana for 3 years now and she is the only person I trust to touch my hair. She is a true artist when it comes to hair (both cut and color). Even though I've been going to her for years she never assumes that she knows what I want and still takes the effort to ask how my hair has been and what I'm trying to achieve to ensure we are aligned. She really understands hair and has taught me so much about my own hair. Before Seana, it was hard to find a stylist who knew how to achieve flowy layers that didn't look chunky or wispy and gracefully framed by face. Because of her, I can wear my hair in effortless versatile ways (curly, waves, straight, blow out, bun). The right cut is everything! Seana you are magical! read more

It's a constant 5 star review for Furiosa Studio! I am heartbroken to see Seana relocate to Austin (lucky new clients)! Best colorist and hairstylist I met in CA. Basically, wash, go and collect hair compliments between the appointments. Thank you, Seana, you are amazing and will be greatly missed in Oakland! read more

After a full year of letting my long thick hair grow wild and somehow still struggling to find volume, I finally decided to ask for Seana's help. The experience from booking to sitting my butt in chair was a breeze. She gave very clear instructions and prepped the studio to make me feel safe yet comfy. This proved to be especially smart since my ridiculous beast of a head kept us both in that room for over 3 hours. Towards the end of the night, Seana was professional enough to finish the cut, make adjustments based on my feedback, and style my hair along with some suggestions for maintenance without rushing any of it. I was able to get some bounce at the top without adding too much pouf, giving much needed framing around my round face. Might I add that it has also been very easy to maintain without much styling (my hair doesn't hold anything without an obscene amount of hairspray and I just can't be bothered most days). Seana's studio is truly a gem on Piedmont Ave -- I'm definitely planning on visiting again for trimming and colors for the summer! read more

Seana gave me the best haircut that I've ever had. Seriously. My hair feels and looks thicker (as well as healthy), it has great movement, and I absolutely LOVE my hair for the first time in a long time. The best thing about Seana is she really, really listens. And not just at the beginning, but at multiple times during the process, to make sure that you both are on the same page. She'll ask questions to clarify what you want and give you options. I felt totally heard the whole time. Also, she gives an amazing head massage when she washes your hair- I legit almost fell asleep. I felt so relaxed and comfortable with her (something that has never happened to me before- I usually white knuckle my haircuts) that I just closed my eyes and let her do her thing. And it turned out fabulous. Her studio is super cute and she is stunning. I will be back for sure! read more

I have been seeing Seana for 2 ish years. I love everything about her little studio and her professionalism. First, the studio. It's an earthy little spot housed with several others independent salons. It's bright an airy with a door into a backyard area for perfect ventilation. Seana always has eclectic music playing to add to the vibe. Oh, and most important, her studio follows GREEN business practices. Check out her website for more details. That's honestly what drew me to her. Now for what people probably care about, her skills. She has taken me from all over reddish-purple hues, to highlighted and toned brighter purple ombré kind of vibes on my long hair. I've never gotten so many compliments on my hair as I have with the colors she's done for me. Her blow-outs are amazing and I can stretch them up to two weeks. Finally every appointment involves a consultation. She takes time to understand what her clients want which avoids any misunderstandings. And the nicest thing for me, I find it easy to talk to her. I'm typically the uncommon person that finds it difficult to chat at the salon, but with Seana, we can chat the whole time, I can work on computer projects, or we can listen to music while she works and it's all chill. read more

I've been trusting Seana exclusively to cut and color my hair for almost 2 years now. When my last stylist of 4 years sold her salon and moved to NYC, I was in a bit of a panic because I've had had so, so many bad experiences in the past. Some of you fellow curly, frizzy, thick, coarse-textured women know that finding a stylist who understands your hair AND cut/style/treat it well is one in a million. I was quite lucky to find Seana. With Seana, I've gone through numerous creative colors and variations in layering. While I was growing out a side shave, she was able to cut my hair so that it blended well with the rest of my longer layers. She's also expertly shaped and styled my hair in ways that are new for me; adding bounce and appropriate amounts of volume after years of flat-ironing. I even made my first forays into blow-drying my hair just so I could attempt to replicate what she does in the salon. She's helped me solve strange texture issues that have arisen (a change of conditioner solved that) and when I'm not sure what do with color, she's a fountain of ideas - and incredibly collaborative. She's a great listener and understands how personal hair can be; you'll feel taken care of by Seana AND walk out shining bright like a diamond. read more

I've been going to Seana for over 3 years now. Not only is she a genuine human being, she thoroughly listens and cares about giving you the best cut/color that suits your preference and lifestyle. She asks thoughtful questions and gives sound advice to level set expectations. I'm pretty consistent with my hair color and cut, ranging from mid-length to shoulder cuts and medium brown to golden bayalage highlights. When my hair is too damaged to go lighter, Seana is transparent and will offer alternatives to keep the integrity of my hair versus being a "yes" stylist. I appreciate this quality because it shows she cares about the longevity of my happiness with my cut/color, versus giving me something that I'll like for just a week or two, to get a hefty tip out the door. Although I don't stray too adventurously, we do trial different product lines to test tone variation. In the rare times my hair comes out a bit too dark or ashy than preferred, Seana will immediate re-tone or bring me back in the same week. For those that care, she is a certified green studio so her products are not harmful to the environment. I've referred a few friends to Seana, who also love her work. Highly recommend! read more

I had an appointment with Seana last week and I am so pleased! I've had my fair share of bad experiences, and I'm the kind of person who tends to avoid getting haircuts for that reason. I approach each new salon experience with a certain amount of fear and skepticism because of that. Seana took the first 10-15 minutes to listen to me talk about my hair, ask questions, and unhurriedly come to understand what I wanted out of my cut. This is such a refreshing change from stylists who listen for one minute, say yes without clarifying, and then give you a cut that is off the mark. I have stick-straight hair that tends to be oily, and despite many resolutions and attempts to change myself, I've finally embraced the fact that I'm never going to use product or blow dry my hair. Seana truly embraced my wash-and-go wishes. As soon as I left her studio, I was getting compliments on the cut from my friends and family, but the true test was a few days later: long after the blow-out was gone, after sleeping on sopping wet (!!) hair and chasing my sick toddler around, my hair still looks awesome. read more

Seana is one of the first people who has actually listened to what I want, and then executes it gracefully. I am really picky about my hair and pretty good at convserving money, so when I tell you she's worth it, she is really worth it. She has only cut my hair, but I am confident in all of her abilities as a hair stylist. She is also very dedicated to being eco-friendly. I love her very much and she has become a good friend! read more

I don't really go for a color change on my black hair, but ever since covid I wanted to try some lighter color! Not knowing where to go, I started looking on Instagram and Yelp for hair color pictures. Then I found Seana :) I'm so glad I came across her! I first booked a 15 min free consultation with her to discuss about my hair goals and the price that would cost me to get the result. She was very communicative and explained the process that would get me the color I want. Not knowing how much bleach will lighten up my hair she told me it would take 2-3 sessions. After us confirming about what I want and how much/long it would take, I booked an appointment and went in again 2 weeks later. She explained what she was going to do and everything went smoothly. She was passionate and super focused working on my hair! The great thing was that it turned out my hair was lifted so well that my hair looked great and perfect with just one session. Of course she went above and beyond to get me to the result hair! Even though it took super long, I am really satisfied with my hair . If you are thinking of any color change, go book a free consultation with Seana! You won't regret. read more

She gave me a mullet , denied it, then gave me back my money for the haircut. Also, the products are very small, very expensive, and not very effective. But they're organic which was nice to see. Will never come back because of the bad haircut and the scary attitude. She seemed so sweet and nice at first. Very good seana ! The search for a stylist is definitely feeling like I'm on a quest to finding the holy grail after letting you bc it though and damage my hair. Best of luck! I hope you find your stride as a stylist Again , she had a dramatic and ego-centric attitude after I told her that the haircut looked like a mullet . She also threatened me by saying that she has scissors in her hand and that I should be careful of what I say... it was a scary attitude change . read more

Seana is the best!! She provides such a beautiful experience. Not only does she take the time to really understand your hair goals but she creates a calm and warm environment. Her salon is so relaxing and inviting with all the plants, windows, and crystals. My daughter and I always leave her salon feeling beautiful inside and out. read more

Attention curly girls! Seana is the best. I've been going to her for a few years now. Over time she learned my curls and my preferences but then always makes suggestions that breathes a whole new life into my hair. Seana doesn't just cut and color your hair she actually teaches you how to help your curls live their best life, I style my hair completely different from all I've learned from her! read more

Seana is amazing. She's been my stylist for the past 2 years and I always leave her studio with magical unicorn hair.

Also, haircuts are the best I've ever had. :) read more

I'm one of those people who goes get haircuts once a year because I'm always so nervous and have been traumatized from bad past experiences). But after finding Seana, I've been back to her studio twice in the last five months because I love it so much! The first time I got a full balayage and the second time I got a hair cut and gloss. Even though I got my hair colored almost five months ago, I'm STILL getting compliments on it. Seana spends the first 10-15 minutes listening and asking the right questions about how your hair works, then spends the rest of the time working her magic. She's extremely attentive to what you want and engages in great conversation throughout the whole appointment! Seana is also so dedicated to the studio and something I found really cool is she's a certified green studio and makes a big effort to give back to the environment. Loved the appointment, love my hair ! :) read more

I started going to Seana during the pandemic when I was staying closer to home for work... which also happened to be about 6 months before my wedding! It was a little scary to put my hair in someone else's hands that close to such a big occasion but I am SO glad I did. Seana is amazing! I have long, very fine hair that can easily look limp or frayed with a bad cut. Somehow Seanna makes me look like I have volume that I never knew could be there, and it lasts months after I leave her chair! To say I'm sad she's leaving the Bay Area is an understatement. To anyone in Austin thinking about whether to give Seana a try: DO IT! You won't be disappointed. read more

I used to get my haircuts at Edo Salon where Seana worked - when I found out that Seana established her own cute place, I followed her!

Ample street parking - Check. Cut studio space in a gorgeous victorian home - Check. Keurig coffee or tea - Check. Getting your tresses done by Seana - CHECK! Ladies, please come and see Seana. She is simply the best for haircuts - I cannot recommend her enough! read more
