Roya Granmayeh did a great job with my haircut. She listened to what I had in mind and suggested her tweaks that ultimately made the cut turn out exactly how I wanted. Her years of experience really showed with how quickly she understood my hair type and also made helpful suggestions for hair maintenance. read more

i come in to get highlites and lowlights and my hair turned out bright orange and also yellow brassy. no differentiation betwen highlites and low lights. came back the next day for her to fix it at no charge, left with same hair colors. please note I was charged $260 dollars for a color service and the haircut was not even. skip this place, unless you are getting a haircut that grows back. Go to Silverado down the street for color instead. read more

I've been using this Cost Cutters for 3 years now. The stylists are friendly and do an excellent job of cutting your hair. They cater to mostly men. However, they do women's cuts and color as well. There is a huge parking lot in front shared with several businesses, but there is always plenty of parking. The next time you need a haircut, stop by Cost Cutters at Avery Ranch and ask for Eva or Kiddy; you might just might become a fan! read more

Reopened location - actually the Cedar Park store moved here. Had a shampoo, cut and style done by Norma.

Liz and Kevin more like ZErO stars for your employee! Too shocked to respond in defense of my daughter. 12/05/19 @ 7:45pm For the first time I took my daughter for a haircut at your establishment. We were greeted by a young boy and simply asked if they had time for one more client. I sure wish he would have said no. My daughter was a trooper and endured a horrific haircut. Her hair was not sprayed wet, no product placed to ease the pain of the rudest hairstylist and most unprofessional employee/human-being. Stylist tugged on my daughters hair and looked like she wanted to punch my daughter in the face when she failed to answer a question quick enough. She asked my daughter to put her chin up twice with a tone of hatred in her voice. What fault did my daughter have that I got out of work late and rushed to take her for a cut? I can only assume after reading the other reviews that it was Ashley who was the culprit. This woman was abusive and intimidating. A true bully! Hold her accountable. My review is not the only negative one. I placed the day and time so you can trace back what two employees and boy were working. Oh forgot to mention. At the same time she was entertaining some friends who were visiting during business hours. What the heck? Haircut 0.5 stars but have had better for cheaper along with way better experience. read more

Wow, after reading all of the reviews realized I am not the only one to have a terrible experience with Ashley. She was downright rude with my son and me. My son is only 4 and was wanting her to go slow , When I respectfully asked that of her she says " well am not going to spend an hour cutting his hair" and then asked me to hold his head . Later as she was cutting blamed me for messing up his hard line . And also for not holding his head "firm" .I was done with her attitude and requested to switch to another stylist. Then as she cleans up she rude said " Get off my chair". I was amazed at her audacity and the way she spoke to me. The other hair stylist who then took over did a great job. She was super sweet and nice to work with. It doesn't surprise me that several others had the same experience with Ashley. I usually never write negative reviews but wanted to help the management and make them aware. read more

I brought my 2 granddaughters in for a trim and the stylists did a great job. Both very friendly and very competent. But the story of the day originated with Kiddy, one of the stylists there who shared that she had worked there for 15 years. When she saw me waiting in the waiting area, she looked at me and asked, "Did you leave a purple coffee mug here that last time you came in?" "Whaaaat?" So here's the backstory. The last time I took the kids in for a haircut was before Christmas, and had probably taken them a time or two before that. On the last 2 visits to Austin, I noticed that my purple insulated coffee mug was not on the shelf where it was supposed to be at the kids home in Cedar Park. No one had any idea what had happened to it. I assumed it was long gone. So when Kiddy asked me if I'd left it there...I lost my mind!! She noticed I had left it there and had tried to call me, but couldn't reach me. So she took it into the back room, cleaned it and put it on a shelf. When she went into the back room and brought it out to me...my brain exploded. That is what I call customer service!!! She recognized me and realized that I was the one with the lost mug. Doesn't get any better than that. (Bit of a side story that even makes this story more amazing. I had originally booked our appointments at Great Clips but when we drove into the parking lot, I realized that it was Costcutters that we had been going to on previous appointments. So we weren't even supposed to be at Costcutters. And the rest is history. read more

Kiddy at Cost Cutters (Avery Ranch and Parmer) is the BEST! She always does a meticulous cut and is very particular. She wants customers to be happy with their haircut. read more

I have lived in Avery ranch for 6 years now and it's my first time here. Place is clean, and has very vibrant look to it. Didn't know I could have made appointment before showing up. But next time I will have to do it to save time. It wasn't that busy on Sunday morning so I got in pretty quick. It was a decent place to get a quick haircut. read more

Negative 1-Horrible haircut! So bad that I had to tell the lady to STOP cutting. Asked for 1 inch, got 4 inches taken off. Another lady had to straighten up my hair and it still is horrible! You get what you pay for and this was worth nothing. Making an appointment with my regular hair stylist to see if she can fix me! read more

we just moved to cedar park and Visited the salon today to get my 3 years od son hair cut here is what happened my son does not like hair cut witch is many kids are we been told to go to Ashley I tried to have my son sit down for haircut but he was refusing, Ashley did not bother to say a word to help or give advice or do something to help at least, she was so rude she mentioned about closing in 10 minutes and her face was showing hates we end up leaving without haircut Ashley was so rude when we were leaving. i beleive ASHLEY should not be in this business and she should be doing construction: nailing wood or something represent her personalitty. we will never go back but maybe we will if one day Ashley is no longer there. read more

This place has the best customer service ever. I take my dementia addled mom there and Ruby takes such good care of her. They tell me to go, shop or something... They'll take care of her. She gets a perm and cut and looks so cute. Everyone helps me get her in and out of her wheelchair, too. They treat mom with kindness and respect. This place deserves 10 stars. read more

Went in to only to get my ends cut, no styling, just straight across. I asked the hairstylist to do it while my hair was dry. I always get my hair cut while it is dry and straight because it is very curly and most people can't handle the curly hair. She started off by spraying water on my hair after I said no water! Once she was done cutting it was hard to tell if it was straight because part of it was curly where she got it wet. Until I got home and straighten it I could see that my hair is in a v shape, not cut across and I had to cut a piece off myself because it was way longer than the rest and stuck out. Now I have a very crappy and noticeable hair cut!! Will not be returning to this location!! read more

I have been getting my hair cut here for a few months now and have always gotten a good haircut by the different stylists until today. I have brought my young sons and they have received good haircuts as well. I usually go on Tuesday or Thursday to get the discount. So today my hair was cut by a high functioning zombie. I guess zombies need work too but if you want a decent hair cut choose the stylist that is not a zombie. I had her make some corrections before I left but still had long hair in areas that need to be trimmed, nothing that can't be fixed at home but still was expecting a little more. I have had worse haircuts from regular stylists. I will be back and now know not to get my haircut by the zombie. Also, the store has always been clean when I have been there. Its also nice that they usually have someone working the front desk so that your haircut is not disrupted if your stylist has to go greet and sign customers in. read more

Visited the salon today to get the hair cutting done for my 7 year old daughter and myself and we were told since we didn't have an appointment we will have to wait for 3 customers ahead of us (2 waiting and 1 appointment) 30 minutes approx. waiting time and our name was added and we waited in the lounge and were left waiting for 50 minutes and their stylist Ashley took customers of her own choice that came with out appointment after us. It was very disappointing and unprofessional of her to take customers out of turn as more than 6 customers were taken but our turn didn't come and eventually we had to walk out of the place. The receptionist apologized on behalf of Ashley but hair stylist was so rude that she didn't bother to say sorry for her unprofessional attitude. I used to get my hair cut done from this place but after this unprofessional attitude I will never be visiting them again. read more

New to the Austin area and so glad I found Kiddy. Went in for a trim and blowout and she didn't disappoint. Owner was a lovely lady as well . My hair feels so much more healthier. Thanks ladies read more

I have been going here for 10 years and for the reasons that matter: 1.) Friendly atmosphere and staff 2.) Great price 3.) Consistent results It is simply a quality neighborhood haircut location. Sometimes it may be busy, but just call ahead if you're in a hurry. Get the 3-pk coupons at the store. Great value! All the stylists are great - especially Haifa!! read more

We got a coupon in the mail that says "legible for a 10 dollar haircut". Turns out that's the amount you have to pay, instead of the price being taken off. Not only that, we had to wait like an hour there just for the haircut to get started. read more

I remember once as a teenager my granddad cutting my hair. He often did so when I was younger. But my hair had grown, and I wanted a grunge sort of look. Decent looking, not trashy, but grunge. He had a look on his face that said "Jarrod, men and boys are supposed to have short hair with a clean-cut look. I just don't understand you kids today." He then proceeded to cut my hair the only way he knew how, which was almost the exact opposite of what I wanted. (And just before I was about to go to a Metallica concert. Bad timing.) But hey, that was my granddad. I should have expected that. But when I pay for a haircut, I want the person to listen and try to understand my request and try to accommodate it. I am reminded of that experience when I go to cost cutters. No matter how I explain what I want (which I really don't think is that complicated, if you'll just listen and do what I request) they give a puzzled look and give me something totally different. There used to be a girl that worked here named Shannon. She was actually really good. But she is no longer there, and everyone else I've experienced does not do near as good of a job. Well, when you go to a cheap place, expect a result that reflects it. You get what you paid for. Since my experiences here are just "really bad" rather than "terribly awful", and since they are really cheap, I'm being generous and giving 2 stars instead of 1. I went today to sport clips. They were more expensive, and I (like my granddad) like to be frugal. But they did an AWESOME job. (I left a review for them as well.) read more

Today I went into Cost Cutters for a haircut. I have been here many times before with my husband but I myself have never had a haircut until today. The reason I went here instead of my usual stylist is because I recently lost a majority of my hair due to being sick. My hair has always been really long, thick and pretty so its been a pretty traumatic experience losing it. It has started growing out and was finally long enough for a pixie cut so I decided I needed to take the plunge and cut off the last remaining long strands I had left which wasn't much but it was still hard to do. I knew I could just walk in here the same day and get it cut and that I would not have to spend $45 on a haircut where as I would have had to wait until January to get in at my usual salon. I went in and checked in with the front desk guy and waited about 20 minutes. When I was called for my cut my stylist introduced herself as Haifa. She asked what I wanted and I broke down crying about my hair loss. I was really embarrassed but she stepped right up to me and embraced me in a hug and said its okay, its only hair and you have to be strong. She was very understanding and so sweet, I really appreciated the extra effort she put in with me because it was such an emotional experience for me. At the end of the cut she gave me her card and asked me to please come back to her for haircuts because she would like to be the one to give them to me while my hair grows out. I was not expecting to break down crying and I surely wasn't expecting the great amount of kindness that she showed towards me. I just had to come on here and share my positive experience with this business and with Haifa. Thank you! read more

The last haircut I got here was bad enough that I had to redo it myself with clippers at home. Its nice to get a cheap haircut, but when your fade looks more like a bowl cut, that's bad. The other times I have come here the haircut was OK so I guess it depends who you get. Its a low priced option and most of the time they do a good job. read more

I drive 21 miles to get my haircut at this Cost Cutters. Kiddy does my hair, she's spectacular. I can't ever move now because then I'd have to travel further but if I did, I'd figure out how to get there. Much appreciative of their customer service & it seems like a very great place to work as the interactions I've had have been excellent. Thanks! read more

Jeanna amazing! I walked in and wanted a new look ( back to short hair ). " cut it off please !" She did an amazing job. Perfect texture and gave me tips for different styling ! Love her artistic knowledge ( she's been in the biz 30 years ). Trust her completely for the best cut ! Leap of faith on a whim and found my hair angel ! THANK YOU JEANNA ! read more

I have going to the one since I moved into the area (2007) and can't say enough good things about them. My wife, 2 young kids, and myself have never had a bad cut and have always been happy with the stylist. Not going to say anything about the bad experiences as the can and do happen anywhere, just wanted to share the good experience I have had over the last 6 years. read more

i give this place a 0 star! i went here and asked them to make my hair even!!!! they cut off 2 inches instead my hair looked better before i went here than after u came out! i recommend this place gets shut down or to never go here. any recommendations my picture day is on monday. read more

First time here, staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. My son has autism and it's difficult to have his haircut. They were incredibly patient and did an excellent job cutting his hair. Pricing was good and there was minimal wait time. We'll be back again! read more

Ashley has been cutting my hair for over three years. Very professional with an outgoing personality. Great attitude. She gives great feedback for suggestion which would work best for my hair type. Management should consider her for leadership roles. read more

The girl was beyond rude when I was describing the haircut I wanted for my son. Behind me there was a girl who was getting an upper lip wax and they literally burned off part of her skin because they waxed the same spot over 3 times. I would NEVER go back to this salon or recommend it. Terrible service, terrible cut. read more

We see Britany and LOVE her. She's very sweet and so great! She cuts my (mom) and my sons hair. I love how I can tell her what I'm thinking and she is able to deliver every single time! Price wise this place is very affordable which is always appreciated, but I would pay more for her services! read more

Worst haircut place ever! Took my 9-year-old son here for a simple haircut. The stylist seemed hurried, even though the place was empty on a Sunday morning. She muttered about my coupon and said she couldn't honor it. My son's haircut was crooked and just plain bad. I asked her to do it over. She gave me a dirty look and made it worse. Yikes! Never again. I went to the new Great Clips across the street to get it fixed. My poor son! Had to buy him a new Xbox game for his ordeal. LOL! read more

-1 because Kat no longer works here but I've always gotten a GREAT haircut here since I was 15 read more

This place had amazing service. As soon as I walked into this establishment, it was incredibly clean and organized. I enjoyed the conversation with the staff as I waited only a few minutes for my haircut. I was assisted by a young woman who had very pretty hair and I can't recall her name. But she definitely knew her stuff. I wasn't sure what to do with my hair, but she took charge and it came out great! She also recommended some amazing Paul Mitchell products to help with hair maintenance as I swim frequently (chlorine has damaged my hair). I can't think of any complaint, honestly! This is my new go to hair spot. I'd recommend this cost cutters to anyone and will continue to refer people here! 5 stars! read more

I came here to get my hair cut by Kori... Let me add that I'm very picky and I did cut my hair off 6 months ago to donate it... Donating it was amazing but the botched cut I was left with made me sad for months... That being said I came to cost cutters and had an amazing cut by Kori... Not only was her station decorated with employee of the month but she really listened to what I wanted... I finally love my hair after wearing it for months in a messy bun... Thanks again Kori!!!!!!! read more

1st, because I LOVE THIS SALON and have been going twice monthly for over 4 years - I was thinking WHAT???, why didn't this facility have a better rating. In reviewing, I'm seeing that all but 1 dubious rating was some years ago, one even being 10 years ago in 2007. Rather outdated. One was from a cantankerous customer (or perhaps a kid creating havoc), who was upset they didn't give him an added discount since their name was "Cost Cutters". Sigh! Another described a service they don't even do, so must have been posted incorrectly. I seldom ever see unhappy clientele and in my 4 years going there, the few I've seen were quickly remedied. I have been amiss to not take time out to give accolades where they are deserved. My stylist is Haifa. I say she is an Architect: parts stylist, creator, psychologist, ambassador and just really accomplished and nice. She runs a competent shop, and many of the stylists have been there the full 4 years I've been going. The stylists here have become like extended family: Kitty, Brittany, Ashley and others. Connie, after many years here, just took a brand new shop near her home. This is not a fly by night shop and has a huge repeat customer clientele. I love going, getting my hair fixed. A shampoo, style and cut, or a full or partial dye, all are completed in a cheery atmosphere and done well. Kudo's to the Cost Cutter team at Avery Ranch!! read more

Love this place. Consistently good hair cut. Friendly staff who are good at what they do.

Have been going to this place since 2007. Depending on who the hair stylist is, you will get average to excellent hair cut. Staff is very professional and kid-friendly. Manager is caring. They often run good deals otherwise the cost of hair cut is placed above average than most other chains. read more

Cost Cutters.. When you hear those words, what do you think of? I think of cutting costs, but not sure what kind of costs. Did anyone think of hair??? Well, that is what this place is, a hair-cutting place. I visited the Avery Ranch location a month or so ago. I went in and sat down and provided the "Hair Care Professional" some unsolicited feedback.."the name of this place doesn't really sound like a hair cutting place, I almost didn't even see it".. She remarked in a huffy, condescending voice.."well, you must not have paid attention to the flyer's we sent out".. What I originally wanted to say was, "the name of your business is Fawking stupid, who came up with this piece of crap.. Cost Cutters? What kind of Costs are you cutting, Advertising and Branding costs".. Screw the flyer's.. If you get a flyer in the mail for a some business with a retarded name, does that really help? So after she had communicated that I was actually the moron that didn't get it by viewing their Top Notch advertising flyers I really didn't know what else to say.. They have an entire franchise with this stupid name. Unbelievable.. As far as the hair cut went, it was OK. Nothing special about it at all.. Inspired by this episode I am opening up my own lawn service called.. Kost Kutters! read more

We took an appointment on a Friday evening. But kept getting skipped over people who came after us. The hairdresser, Ashley and another newbie completely passed us over for later arrivals. Even those who got called were puzzled and it ended up getting awkward for everyone. Needless to say we walked out. Connie (manager and head hairdresser) needs to do a better job at training her people. read more

So basically i haven't gotten my hair cut in awhile and being a college student I don't have money to spend so I ended up here. The girl was friendly enough but never asked if I wanted a shampoo or anything just dry cut my hair. It looked ok in the beginning but now that time has passed I realized my hair is so botched... I'm kinda sorry I went here read more
