Customer Testimonials
Always a pleasure. And nice to have a human being, not a robot, answering the phone!
Nice laid back atmosphere. Excellent stylist.
My stylist listened to what I wanted and worked with me to help me get the cut I was looking for.
Great haircut every time!
Eli listened to me and showed care about my preferences.
Judy is amazing! She gave my son a new hairstyle, taking into consideration things that other stylists had not. It was flattering and easy for him to handle. I recommend her completely!
Briana has vintage/retro hairstyling expertise. The skills/experience needed for an authentic 1940s/1950s cut are hard to find. I have been twice now, once on my birthday (happy birthday to me), and more recently for a "real" vintage cut. I love how she has excellent communication skills and how she listens to what you want. When I left on my birthday, I felt truly and authentically me. It is such a blessing that we have her here in Austin.
Gretchen is the best! I just referred one of my friends to her!!!
Everyone was very friendly and helpful
Check-in is always fast and the front desk people are super nice. Jasmine always does an amazing job with my hair.
I have been going to Garbo for over 10 years and have always received high quality service. Brianna just helped me make a big change from long to shorter hair, and I LOVE the new cut!!! And she always gets the color JUST RIGHT! Friendly staff, lovely salon. I can't say enough good things.
Took me right in. Did a good job on my hair and a great job on my eyebrows. Both technicians were wondrous
Judy is a styling goddess and the hardest working woman I’ve ever met !!!
Jen did a great cut & color!
Always consistently beautiful pedicures by Ashley! Thank you!
Judy!
Crystal does a great job. I’ve referred a friend who had good things to say about her haircut. My only complaint is the bowls they use to shampoo are extremely uncomfortable. I wish there was a way to lean over them instead of cranking my neck back. Otherwise it’s a great place with lots of friendly staff.
Crystal was amazing! She color corrected my hair beyond belief! I’ve already booked my next appointment.
Our stylist! Ashley Erin is the best!!
Everything and everyone! Judy is amazing and so is her shampooer and color peeps.
I love Garbo! I've been to several other salons in Austin and just nothing compares to the quality of service. I also love supporting y'all because you're local. Crystal did an outstanding job on my hair color. She took her time and was meticulous about the end product. She made sure to communicate with me about what I was looking for beforehand and was cognizant of my budget. I'll definitely come back to see her.
great customer service, and very accommodating to correct a mixup in appointment times; Marina was extremely attentive, thorough and took extra time with the facial - it was fantastic!
Very nice and friendly salon
I love, love, love Brianna. She’s fantastic at color and cut. She’s so very creative and skilled at not only cutting and coloring, but listening and figuring out what I want with my hair. I also LOVE the owner of the salon. She works non stop and exudes happiness and her desire to make Garbo the best it can be.
Professional staff and the ambiance
I’ve had good experiences with this location- shout out to Eli for his talent!
We made a heat styling appt for my daughter. We were in a bit of a rush to get to a senior photo shoot so I didn’t think there would be enough time to get the look that my daughter wanted. Jasmine Godinez worked some magic and totally totally transformed my daughter’s hair in exactly 20 minutes. She did such a nice job and couldn’t have been sweeter. We will definitely be back to see her.
Very enjoyable experience...conscience work!
Thank you!
The best part of my experience would have to be the time spent in the chair and how well the stylist and front desk assistants treated me through out my first visit

Stylist really seemed to want to get it right
