Eli is fantastic! He totally revived my hair and gave great product recommendations.


Feb 01, 2025

Eli did an amazing balayage on my hair. His attention to detail was incredible and he is a great listener and artist. Daphne at the front desk is very helpful and gave me a tour plus tea and brownies she made. I love how they take care of their clients at this salon.

I absolutely love Garbo! The entire team is always so friendly and welcoming, creating such a great atmosphere. The products they use are top-notch, leaving my hair feeling amazing every time. And Brittany—she’s an absolute rockstar! She works pure magic on my unruly hair, and I always leave feeling confident and refreshed. Highly recommend!

Everyone was so kind and welcoming. And Brittany literally SAVED my hair. I had a terrible color correction project and Brittany tackled it with ease.

Lovely staff, great products, amazing service!

Brittany was amazing! She helped me with deciding what would be the best haircut and recommended me all the products that would best suit my hair type. This salon is so relaxing and peaceful, and I had a wonderful experience!!

I highly recommend booking an appointment with Steven. He is an amazing hair colorist & stylist. He takes the time to fully understand my needs & makes great recommendations. I went lighter this last time & the results exceeded my expections. I always walk out feeling pampered & loving my hair!


Dec 05, 2024

I’m not from Austin so I’m used to paying around 20-30 for a haircut, but i decided to try this salon out and I do NOT regret it!! Brittany was absolutely amazing and worked with me based off what I wanted, including after the styling was done and fixin a few things to my liking. The service here is 10/10 and I definitely recommend anybody reading this to come and try the salon out. :)


Dec 05, 2024

Megan was wonderful! Such a welcoming salon that I would recommend to anyone!


Nov 05, 2024

Amazing environment! music and vibes are great. all stylists were super welcoming and helpful :)


Nov 05, 2024

Brittany did an excellent job with my hair cut and helped make hair product & care recommendations!


Nov 05, 2024

Brittany gave me the most beautiful balayage on my super dark hair leaving me with so much dimension, and also styled it after! She walked me through the balayage process and chose a natural, but noticeable color that would really illuminate my hair and complement my skin color. She did such a great job and I will definitely be back. Loved my experience here!


Nov 05, 2024

Color turned brassy within a few days. I called about a color correction and they didn’t get back to me. Waste of $400 and it’s not the first time it happened for me at this salon.


Nov 05, 2024

Connie cut my hair, and she exceeded my expectations. I have very thick hair that few people can cut correctly. I haven’t been to a salon in years because I gave up and just started cutting it myself. Connie is a master of her craft and what seemed like a small change has made a huge difference. My hair lays beautifully, is healthier and more manageable. I’ll be back again and again!


Nov 05, 2024

Gina is great! She knows how to tame or enhance curly hair. Mine came out smooth and hydrated instead of a frizzy mess. Love the color and the cut. Thank you!


Nov 05, 2024

Brittany gave me a wonderful haircut at the Southshore location! She is very sweet and professional, she gave me so many helpful recommendations on how to style my curly hair.


Sep 05, 2024

Brittany was amazing! Could not recommend her enough


Sep 05, 2024

I told the last that made the appointment over the phone that I wanted a haircut and style. Instead I got a blow out and an attempt. One wash, I've never had my hair washed once at a salon. It's always 2 washes, then conditioner applied, wait about 5 mins then rinse with cold water. I was very disappointed, I did have to tell the hairdresser that my hair had to be straightened using high heat flat Iron and then curled with a round iron or it would immediately get Friday I and lose it's style once I walked outside in the heat and humidity! But the lady that did my hair was very nice and informative.


Sep 05, 2024

It was such a great experience. Brittany did an excellent job!


Sep 05, 2024

Just went here for the first time and had a great experience! Switching salons is always a little nerve wracking but Brittany was super sweet and did a great job!
