Coloring is an art unto itself. Our highly educated team brings the foremost techniques to its work, personalizing color for you. A complimentary consultation is respectfully required for a new color client prior to appointment. This time allows the stylist to discuss desires and goals, assess hair texture and integrity and describe available options.
Let us create customized services, designed to meet your need for personalized skin care. Additional time for relaxing massage, enhanced moisturizing or resurfacing treatments may benefit those with special skin care needs. Individual services respectfully priced with consultation. Dry, oily, aging, uneven, sensitive, and acneic skin conditions and eye concerns can all be addressed with a customized facial treatment.
Now you can get in and out of your color service faster! Whether you're concerned about prolonged contact or just don't have the time for a full-service color appointment, with our Express Color services, we apply your custom color formula, then you process and rinse at home. Some formulas may be too complicated for Express Color- we'll check yours to make sure you are good candidate.

Kristen is the BEST. Willing to work with me until I find exactly the style I'm looking for, and I trust her opinion. This has been my regular salon for over a year. Good vibes, clean space, great people. Love it!

Stephanie is the only stylist I will let touch my hair after searching for years for someone that knows how to truly handle long fine hair and long layers. My hair is fair and fine and it takes someone that really knows what they are doing to make it look healthy and full, and not limp and stringy, and Stephanie is an absolute genius. She really does an amazing job and I won't see anybody else to give me volume with long layers that blend well and aren't choppy like so many I have had before. She's very knowledgeable and kind and does a great blowout as well! I also love the salon and the staff, it is a great environment and always pleasant and relaxing.

I was very let down by the service of this salon. I was there for 6 hours and sent out the door with wet hair and an unfinished cut that was to be finished on another date because they ran out of time and had to see someone else. My stylist asked for help from multiple members of her coworkers to see if they had time to blow dry and no one even tried to help.

The only comment I got from the receptionist at the front as I was paying was that I had been there for a very long time. Also, when I got home my hair was breaking apart and I was too afraid to touch it or comb it. The next day I cancelled the appointment for my stylist to finish my cut and found another salon who did a repair treatment and cut. I am thankful it looks and feels much better!

I do have to mention that I also have lots of horizontal stripes through out my hair at my roots that I will have to soften up once my hair gets a break. After that experience and cost, I would not recommend them to anyone seeking blonding services. I know that going blonde is a lengthy process that requires multiples sessions and that it can be damaging, but the way I was sent out feeling like a wet dog and how my hairstylist seemed to have no support when she asked for help made it a deal breaker for me to go back there.

I enjoyed getting my hair done here. Angie is awesome. She took her time and really listened to what I wanted done. She did a wonderful update to my color and style. Love Aveda products.

I was greeted in a friendly manner by everyone with whom I came into contact. And, Kristen did a great job with my curly hair. She listened to me, made good suggestions, and told me about the products she used. This is my place now!

I've never had a bad experience here! Although it is pricey, you get what you pay for. The hairstylists are knowledgeable and work with your needs to create a cohesive look. Their expertise is worth the expense.

I moved recently from Colorado and was looking for a good Aveda salon. After so research I decided to go here. I was super pleased. My stylist Celenia, did an amazing job. She listened to my preferences and did beautiful high and low lights along with a layered cut. I will definitely be coming back to see her!

I'm giving this salon 2 stars because the interior is nice and it is in a nice location. They always take your appointment on time and finish your appt within the estimated time frame they give you. They have great services by asking you if you'd like something to drink as soon as you walk in. However, for the past 5 years, I have been coming here and trying other salons and yet haven't found a salon that I can absolutley trust with my hair.

I usually ask for a mix of things such as balyage, shadow root, full blonde foil. I keep coming to this salon in hopes that I will walk out one day and love my hair. but this has not happened at this salon yet. I got my hair dyed about 2 months ago at the Alamo Heights location and I was charged around $380. I do not mind paying a lot of money as long as it is worth the money.

I walked out of there with brassy hair. I had to go to sallys to buy a toner because the top of my hair looked very brassy. I had asked for a Master stylist so I was surprised and quite dissappointed that I was left brassy hair by a Master stylist. Ive been coming here several times and paying around $300-$400 each time but yet I have never been completely satisfied.

One would expect to walk out of there with no brassiness as you are paying alot of money but this has not been the case. That said. I have decided to give the salon one last try in hopes that I will actually walk out satisfied this time. I will post an update of next week once i go to my next appointment.

I highly recommend Beckie Alborn. The price for a cut and style is high, $80, but she is most definitely worth it!
