Mary is unique in how she combines inner and outer beauty work! Not only is the absolute best cut and color in town, but she also does incredible energy work and healing to make you radiant inside and out. It’s not just a hair appointment—it’s an entire vibrational upgrade!

I can not say enough good things about Mary Joy at Holy Misfit, she puts everything she has into what she does. I highly recommend her for both hair and healing services

I had a fantastic experience at Holy Misfits! I got a low-maintenance balayage and haircut, and both turned out amazing. The color is beautifully blended and natural, perfect for easy upkeep. The cut adds just the right amount of movement and is super easy to style. Mary was very friendly and professional—I’ll definitely be back!


Nov 06, 2024

Mary Joy is amazing! This review is long over-due but last winter I got a haircut along with a cord cutting session and it truly impacted my life in the best way!! You will not regret going to her. I can’t wait to do another session soon!


Nov 06, 2024

Mary Joy is quite the joy. My hair has never looked better. She is great with coloring and cut. The plus side is she is the sweetest. Looking forward to my next visit. Always get compliments when I get my hair done.


Oct 06, 2024

I’ve been coming to Mary for many many years now. She always does an amazing job on my hair! I know that I’m going to get a high quality job every time I come in.


Oct 06, 2024

Mary is the sweetest EVER!! Her studio is stunning and she is so sweet and welcoming! I was able to show inspo pics of what I was looking for and she was able to recreate exactly what I was envisioning. Genuinely my favorite hair stylist I’ve ever been to! She is incredibly talented and I will definitely be going back to Mary from now on!


Sep 06, 2024

Whenever I go to see MJ, I always have some idea in my head of what I want and I always leave her salon feeling like $$$$. She absolutely kills it every time and it's always better than I pictured. I would recommend MJ to anyone!


Aug 06, 2024

Getting my hair done at Mary was such a great experience. She did an incredible job on my hair and has just a very welcomming atmosphere in her saloon. I will definetly come again!

Mary is amazing!!! I had such a fantastic experience with her for a balayage and haircut. She’s kind, caring, thoughtful, and so easy to talk to! She takes the time to truly listen to you and make you feel comfortable. Her space is so cute with natural light and great music - also with the cutest dog. I’m super appreciative, thank you so much!


May 06, 2024

Gentlemen, Mary Jo is masterful at her work. I have seen her for a few cuts now and every time they have been outstanding. If you care about your hair style and having a reliably high quality cut every time then Holy Misfit Salon is for you.


May 06, 2024

Mary is my hair goddess!!! not only she's extremely talented with color, but she's a pleasure to hang out with! Her amazing energy and expertise make the process enjoyable! I get super excited every time I book my appointments with her.


Mar 06, 2024

LOVE LOVE LOVER MARY. Truly the best hairstylist I've ever gone to. She cares so much about her clients and does magic every time I see her. Do yourself a favor and go see her

Mary Joy is an exceptional soul who is a master at her craft. She gave me one of the best haircuts of my life, coupled with a powerful cord-cutting service that made me feel like a new person. She was patient and attentive as we discussed the right hairstyle for me. She helped me consider things like daily styling and maintenance, and guided me to choose the exact cut that matched my lifestyle. Her warm demeanor made me feel heard and secure -- exactly what every person dreams of when they sit in a salon chair. The cord-cutting service helped me let go of years of pain that I had been hiding within myself. Our session ended with me feeling transformed both inside and out. Like others have said, Mary Joy is a beautiful soul. Her vibe is immaculate, and she makes you feel at ease in every way.


Mar 06, 2024

Mary Joy is truly amazing at what she does! I have been seeing her for over five years and every time I see her, I leave feeling beautiful both on the inside and out! Normally I do balayage in the summer which she is a pro at, but right now I’m rocking a rich chocolate color, and I’m loving it! Thank you for everything you do and keep working your magic, girl! ✨

Worth the price imo


Feb 06, 2024

Best hair stylist and hair color expert in Texas!!!!!


Feb 06, 2024

Everything about my experience is worthy of 5 stars. First, the cut and color are so beautiful. I have thick hair that doesn’t like to lift or be toned. She did a great job with color placement and toning. She’s really an artist! Mary was also so easy to talk to! She had a great energy and made me feel so at ease during the whole process. I will definitely be coming back next time I need my hair done. She really knows what she’s doing and I’m so glad I decided to trust her with my hair!


Feb 06, 2024

I sometimes cannot even believe that Mary Joy exists! She’s my soulmate hairstylist. Every time I’ve found myself in need of a true transformation, sprinkled with love, joy, understanding and a bit of mystery, I have been met with it all and more. I’m someone who desires big change regularly, and she is never afraid to work with me to find a perfect balance. Most recently, after I’d ended a relationship, I received not only a fun, beautiful and sexy hair lift but an emotional cord cutting as well! Paired together, I feel so full of light and ready to move forward in life as a new GODDESS. Thank you Mary Joy! Xoxo

I was referred to Mary to help fix a botched hair style. Not only did she fix it beautifully, she also provided a light activation session for me! It’s very rare to meet someone that does hair AND energy work/healing. During the light activation session, I felt very relaxed and comfortable. During the process there were times I was sitting & times I was standing. After the session, I was gifted with a morning and evening activation spray that I am completely addicted to, and is now included in my daily routine. A month later, I came in for a hair trim and gloss with an aura cleansing and was able to catch Mary up on the events after my light activation. It’s amazing how life shifts you to align with your truth & higher self to operate in away that’s for your highest good during this human experience! Go go go see Mary and start with life activation!!!


Feb 06, 2024

I've been seeing Mary Joy at Holy Misfit for over a year and somehow every haircut I get is the best I've ever had. She also is amazing with color and helped me transform my thin, damaged, over-processed hair into thick, healthy blonde balayage. On top of all her masterful hair skills, Mary Joy is also just an amazing person. I can't wait for my next trim :)


Feb 06, 2024

It was a great experience. Mary Joy is amazing! Looking forward to my next visit.


Feb 06, 2024

Mary Joy is THE goddess of lived in color in Austin! Not only does she provide the most amazing color transformations and haircuts, but she has the magic touch of a wizard bringing in the most love and light to her clients! I was seeking a change after a breakup and Mary MORE THAN delivered! She gave me the cut and color of my dreams and helped me to release energetic cords to my ex. I loved it so much and felt so much better after that I had to try that life activation she is always raving about. Can I just say… WOW! My eyes are opened and I’m looking at my life in a completely new way. I can’t wait to work with her again! Ladies (and gentlemen) RUN don’t walk to book an appointment with her! You’ll be hooked for life!


Feb 06, 2024

Mary Joy is a courteous and professional stylist who brings a unique twist on modern cosmetology by incorporating advanced spirituality training to bridge the gap between outer beauty and inner beauty. Highly recommend her services, whether you're looking for a salon appointment or spiritual awakening!


Feb 06, 2024

Mary Joy is pure magic!! She has such a great eye and I can always trust that I’m going to leave her chair satisfied. I can’t recommend her enough!!


Feb 06, 2024

Mary has been cutting my hair and trimming my beard for years! Not only does she do an amazing job but her energy always shifts me into a state of happiness and positivity. You can't ask for much more than that when visiting the best hairstylist in Austin!


Feb 06, 2024

The stylist is a great conversationalist and has a great eye for shape and form.


Feb 06, 2024

Where do I start?!?! I first came here in Jan of 2020 after a really bad balayage job @ a local Austin Salon. Mary fixed my hair marvelously. I wasn’t sure how she was going to take the chunky looking dye out of my hair and make it look blended, but she did it! I loved our conversation and learning that Mary is also an energy healer, as I am one too. It’s so nice to finally find a person that I can connect with & receive healing & hair services from at the same time!! Plus who heals the healer?!?! It’s very rare to find a hairstylist that also incorporates energy work with hair, there is an energy exchange when we allow our hair to be done. I’m so grateful that Mary is aware of this and practices this in her services! The best place to get your hair done, and your aura cleansed all at the same time! Now let me fast forward 3 years later, and I took her life activation session and my oh my. That course vibrated unnecessary people out of my life and vibrated necessary opportunities into it! If you’re looking for a life change or just something needs to “give” book a light activation session with Mary now!


Feb 06, 2023

Mary Joy is AMAAAAZING!! Fantastic cut and color, got me walking out of there feeling a whole new woman! I’m really here to brag about the Life Activation I received after my toning session today. I literally walked out feeling lifted and energized, like, excited to start my life. Totally can’t wait to experience my life unfold 😍


Feb 06, 2023

Mary joy did a complete life activation on me and my dog Bowie and the experience was amazing and life changing! I walked in feeling down and stuck and left feeling recharged and excited for the future! Mary is the best! I’ve been seeing her now for my hair for 3 years and I only trust her! She is so fun and easy to talk to and makes you feel at home and beautiful every visit!


Feb 06, 2023

My experience was excellent. Love the vibe; warm and welcoming. My hair was a mess, needed an upgrade. My expectations were met, and exceeded! After I left I went for lunch… I got all the looks. Huge confidence booster. I haven’t felt this good in a long time. Thank you! Visit Holy Misfit, have all your layers addressed.


Feb 06, 2023

What a great experience! Stacie is just the best, I recommend her and this Salon 200%


Feb 06, 2021

Mary Joy is the best human ever. She is an EXPERT in her craft and has EXTREME attention to detail. When she works it is no longer a service, it's an art that she lives and breathes. I basically can't go anywhere else now because she has smashed all my expectations. How could anyone possibly live up to this level of quality and skill?


Feb 06, 2021

Mary is a hair artist- truly. She really works to give you what you truly want in your heart of hearts. I was with her for 9 hours to get the color and cut I wanted and it was a great experience. I could not recommend her enough! A beautiful soul inside and out.


Feb 06, 2021

Mary is an absolute MAGICIAN. She is the queen of all balayage (not just blonde work which is what is most common..) and her vibes make the entire experience very enjoyable. She is the absolute best and I wont be going anywhere else.


Feb 06, 2021

Ms. Mary has awesome taste and skills. She is fun, spiritual and all around a really good person to mark time with. Love my hair and my husband's cut even more! Can't wait to see her again soon.
