Best Balayage Hair Colouring near me in Old West Austin, Austin

Master Cam is wonderful! I’ve tried various places for haircuts/style in Austin and he has been the best. He is truly talented at what he does and you can clearly see enjoys his job. Everyone who works with him is extremely professional and kind as well. He takes his time to cut hair and go through each step with you and why he is doing something. My hair has never looked healthier or better since I started going to Cam. 10/10. Have recommended him to anyone who asks for hair care (color or cut).

Cam is truly a master of his craft. He took the time to explain the pros and cons of my different color and style options and helped decide what would be the best treatment for me ( ie lasting results and minimal damage). I finally found a stylist in Austin who can skillfully cut and color my dark, fine Asian hair to give me volume and dimension. I’m extremely happy with his service and will be returning.

We are lucky to have this studio here in Austin. Cam's expertise is world-class. He brings a level of artistry and excellence to Hyde Park that you would expect to find in SoHo, NYC. I'm hooked!

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!

Needed a haircut badly a few months ago when dropping my daughter off in Austin. Tried Mark and let me sat I made sure to get in to see him again a few months later as I am picking by girl up. Trying to talk him into moving to Nashville!

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.

I had a fantastic experience getting a brown autumn balayage from Sam!! Can’t recommend him enough. Their no-bleach technique created a natural, AMAZING look with rich, warm tones for my hair. Sam's expertise and attention to detail are truly impressive, and he made the whole experience enjoyable and relaxing. If you want gorgeous, natural-looking color, Sam is the one to see! I’ll definitely be returning for a 3rd appointment here at Smooshine.

Cam is an amazing colorist who truly takes the time to understand your hair and lifestyle. He goes in depth with his analysis, considering your skin tone, hair texture, daily schedule, and how much time you have to style. He gives honest recommendations to help you get the best results while keeping your hair healthy. Highly recommend!

Excellent precision, attention to detail, and framing of the haircut. My only complaint was the session scheduled for 7 - 8 and it was delayed 20 minutes. But the quality of the cut is fantastic quality.

I am very happy with my experience at Salone Di Essenza. Lisa is great for curly haircuts and is very personable.
