Best Hair Salons near me in Central Austin, Austin

Mark did an absolutely phenomenal job, I cannot recommend him enough! Not only did he completely fix what previous hairdressers had done very poorly, but he created so much shape and volume as well, and was incredible sweet. If you're thinking about which salon/stylist to choose, he's absolutely the right pick!!!

It was my first time not only going to Smooshine, but an Austin hair salon since moving. It was an amazing experience. The environment was beautiful due to the music, the location, and the aesthetic. I booked my hair appointment with Sam, and it went wonderfully. Not only did he deliver the haircut that I wanted, but he helped me understand why my hair was damaged and how to fix it. He offered a solution in the salon and an at home solution. He was very precise with my haircut, and made it a wonderful experience. This is the best haircut I have gotten!

I was seriously overdue for a haircut and I'm so glad I chose Adrian when I finally decided to book one. All of their infirmation and instructions on booking, location, etc., really helped with my neurodivergent anxiety. When I got there they took the time to talk with me about what I wanted done and they checked with me on length after the initial cuts. They also confirmed my selections from the pre-appointment form (fidget toys & low scent). It was an overall wonderful experience with a thoughtful, conscientious stylist, and I love the cut itself too. A++ experience.

Absolutely wonderful experience. Got exactly the hair I wanted with exactly the atmosphere they had comfortable to me as an autistic person. I plan on recommending Adrian to everyone I know and hope this recommends them to everyone I don't know. If you want the perfect hair experience then look no further.

I recently visited Smooshine Hair Salon and had an amazing experience! Sam Elamaireh was my stylist, and I can’t recommend him enough! Sam was very funny and knew exactly what he was doing. I’m so so pleased with my hair and with the service. I cannot thank him enough—my hair is the best it’s ever been!

Mark did an amazing job! He took one look at my hair and knew exactly what it needed to make it both beautiful, and as healthy as possible. The salon is always very clean and well kept.

Excellent service; made me feel welcome as soon as they escorted me to their studio. Listened to my wants and delivered! It was my first real haircut is about 18 years; will definitely be going back in the future.

This was honestly one of the best experiences I have had at a salon! I have been to other salons in Austin but never felt very comfortable or like the stylists particularly cared about my hair. I had a totally opposite experience here and I will definitely be coming back to Smooshine. Jacob was awesome! He was very attentive and thorough and it was just a super high quality haircut and experience. I appreciate the time he took to understand my hair goals, and to explain his methods and why he did them. I will definitely be recommending Smooshine and Jacob to friends.

Mark is incredibly talented at what he does! He paid close attention to every detail and really listened to what I wanted. I could tell he genuinely loves his craft, which made the experience even better. This is hands down the best haircut I’ve had in a long time. Highly recommend!

My haircut with Adrian was honestly the best salon experience I've ever had. It was awesome to get to book an appointment specifically for a curly haircut! There was lots of time allotted and I didn't feel rushed at all. Adrian offered many accommodations that made my experience feel relaxing and therapeutic - dim lighting, no music or small talk, lots of check-ins about what they were doing. I usually leave a salon feeling completely overwhelmed and overstimulated, and this time I left feeling more calm than when I came in! Not to mention I absolutely love my haircut. HIGHLY recommend them!!

My partner who is neurodivergent said that their haircut experience at Cuts by Them was the most comfortable salon experience they have ever had. The inclusivity and care given were excellent. We have found our salon! Thank you

my first cut with Adrian went really well. they accommodated my sensory comfort and i really appreciate that. they also made sure of what i would like for my hair. i felt at ease with them. i have my bang trim and next longer cut scheduled. i'm very happy to have met Adrian and look forward to continue working with them ♡ thank you Adrian.

super kind and accommodating, plus they gave me a sick haircut too. all around recommend!!

Adrian has great accommodations and I like my haircut, it's so versatile I have had a different look each day already. Friendly and reasonable rates!

Adrian is awesome! I just found them recently and they’re very nice and do a great job on my hair :)

Wonderful experience working with Adrian. They were so patient, friendly, and easy to talk to, and I love my haircut!

Nothing but perfect things to say. I have always dreaded hair appointments, and I feel confident that’s a thing of the past.

Fantastic all around! Never letting anyone else cut my hair again, if I can help it. 😄

Adrian was super accommodating and patient with my 5 year old. My kiddo doesn’t do well with haircuts and they did a great job of meeting him at his comfort level.
