I love coming here to getting my hair taken care of when it comes to Japanese hair straightening…read more It was my second time coming here after my first retouch (April 2024) after my first ever treatment (at a salon in Houston, May 2023). They recommend coming back every 6 months for touch-ups but I managed to come back after 8, even though my hair definitely was in need of a trim at that point! Tammy and co. are super professional and attentive to all details of the straightening process. The process itself is long (~4 hours) but they help make the time go by with their efficiency! I was also able to get complimentary coffee, water, and chocolate throughout my session to stay awake. After my session, I was gifted with a holiday cup with treats! Highly recommend Detammy if you are looking for a reputable place for Japanese hair straightening in Austin.

I'll be coming back to Tammy and Lydia for all future haircuts until further notice! If you're…read morepicky about your Asian hair and looking for stylists who understand your low maintenance hair needs, these ladies gotchu. I feel so seen when they ask me about how I regularly style my hair and how often I get it trimmed. My locks always looks great when I leave their chairs AND months later thanks to the gorgeous work they do. The salon is clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near the Arboretum. Parking is shared with a few other businesses in the strip mall but always a breeze. They take walk-ins but def make a reservation if you can because Tammy and Lydia are in high demand. Pricing is fair compared to other places in the Austin area, especially for the service and quality of work! Head to Detammy and *treat yoself*

After trying to find a decent place in Austin to cut asian hair (asian haircut), I found this place…read morevia Reddit and made an appointment with Sarah Kim via the website. She was running just a smidge behind schedule, but once I sat down, she asked me how I wanted my hair style to look. She diligently looked for the line separating my hair growth direction and used that as a starting point. I was pretty pleased with the haircut, but I was taken aback since I was told over the phone that a haircut is $25 and a haircut + Shampoo was $30. However, I was charged the full $30 amount for the haircut even though I never got the shampoo/wash. Other than that, I was find with the haircut and would recommend this place for asian haircuts. Just make sure you ask and confirm the price before sitting down.

So, I requested long Spring twists, or small passion twists and overall my hair looks nice. The…read moreservice took 6 hours. There was one lady that worked in the front of my hair by herself and one lady did the back of my hair by herself. I understand that the style took a long time because of the length and size I requested, plus they were a bit understaffed. I have a few "gripes." When I drove away one of the twists in the front slipped out. I could have turned the car around but after sitting for 6 hours, I was over it. I reattached it myself. Also, two days later, some of my natural hair is sticking out of the twists in the back and I've been working my hair back into them when I see it. Additionally my hair is parted into a small grid in the front and I have some pretty large parts in the back. Don't get me wrong, I get it, but in think my hair would look weird if I tried to put it in a half up half down style. Overall, the hair doesn't look bad I'm just not sure how long it's going to last. If you're in a pinch and need braids, maybe risk it. I might suck it up and drive to Houston next time.

I honestly hate having to leave a negative review because I'm generally not someone who complains…read morepublicly, but I feel obligated to share my experience so others can make an informed decision. I recently paid nearly $300 for braids at this salon after discussing several protective style options with the staff, including braids, kinky twists, and others. Before selecting a style and even sitting down for the service, I explained that my main goal was to choose something that would look neat, hold properly, and last through my August vacation without needing to be redone beforehand. I have very soft, fine-textured hair and shorter hair length, which was clearly visible during my consultation and in the photos attached, so I relied heavily on their professional guidance regarding what style would work best for my hair type, hair length, and long-term goals. The braider who worked on me was the woman seated in the very first chair on the left when entering the braiding area. She is a shorter, heavyset woman with a limp. I mention this simply so other customers know which stylist performed my service. Before the service began, I specifically asked multiple times whether this style would realistically work well for my hair type and length and continue looking good over time because I genuinely did not know what to expect. I trusted the salon's expertise when I was reassured that this style would achieve the long-lasting result I was looking for. I did not leave the salon initially feeling dissatisfied. However, the next day I noticed one braid in the front that already appeared frayed and frizzy. Once I saw that, I started looking more closely throughout the rest of the style and began noticing additional areas with frizzing, fraying, hair sticking out, and sections that already looked worn and untidy in less than 24 hours. To be clear, the issue was not that the braids were loose. In fact, they were extremely tight. That is part of why the amount of frizzing and fraying the very next day was so concerning to me. When I returned to the salon the following day, I pointed out numerous braids that I felt needed to be corrected. While they did attempt to address my concerns, the solution honestly felt more like a quick band-aid fix than a true resolution. The stylist already had another customer in her chair, and it was very clear the goal was simply to smooth over a few visible areas quickly rather than properly correcting the overall quality concerns I was expressing. What frustrated me most was that each time I pointed out additional problem areas, I was repeatedly told that my hair type and length were the issue. However, if my hair type or length were truly not suitable for achieving a neat, long-lasting result with this style, that should have been communicated honestly before the service was performed -- not after I had already paid nearly $300 and problems were already appearing within a day. The biggest reason I'm writing this review is because I want people to understand how unhappy I ultimately became with the final result. This was not someone looking for a discount or refund while continuing to wear the style. I was so disappointed after seeing the condition of the braids that I completely removed the hair myself almost immediately afterward. One of the salon assistants even helped me remove it because they could clearly see how upset and dissatisfied I was. I think they were genuinely shocked that I was willing to take out a style I had just spent nearly $300 on, but that alone should show the level of disappointment I felt with the overall outcome. I simply wish there had been more honesty, better quality control, and a more genuine effort to properly resolve the concerns I raised.
