Kat M.

Although it's in the heart of downtown, it's totally worth the drive and traffic. For many years I have been coming here and have always loved the family environment of the staff. Everyone is friendly and welcoming and I always leave looking more fabulous than when I came in. Cruz is awesome. He's been in the business for a long time and can make miracles happen. I just recently let him cut my long brown hair to a bronde bob and he did an exceptional job. I have been coming to another stylist who was a good friend of mine for the last several years, but he recently moved to another continent, so he told me I would be safe in Cruz's hands. Not to mention, before it was Studio 1514, it was called the Style Labb and Cruz owned it. If you're looking for extensions, this place is home to the #mermaidhair and while I was in there yesterday, I some really really good extensions happening. Pricing is reasonable, they make you at home with complimentary wine or champagne, and the salon is lovely. The meters on the street are free after 6pm.

I really like this salon for multiple reasons. First and foremost to have your hair colored the pricing is reasonable and they will style your hair upon leaving for no extra charge. (I've had problems in Austin with salons not doing this) Secondly I think Katie (mermaid hair) is amazing and has an excellent work ethic. She does great/quality work and if there ever is an issue with anything, she takes full responsibility and always does what is right. She goes above and beyond to make sure everyone is happy. All and all I'm very happy with the salon. Happy enough to blow off Salons in Austin and drive to Dallas for the better quality.

Sandra O does amazing nails! Take any idea to her and she can create a work of art. You will definitely leave satisfied & be prepared to get lots of compliments from others after they see your nails :) Best place to park is in the DP&L building off Commerce & Lane. Complimentary parking is not available, but it will only cost you a few dollars.

I went to Studio 1514 & Co and my experience was amazing! Ella did my hair and I was super impressed! My hair was fucking awful before and they did their magic! Will definitely be going back!

Katie Rogers Mermaid Hair is hand crafted hair extensions custom made for each client. When you have fine, short, thin hair, you need to realize that when you get extensions it is something that you have to get adjusted to. Once you do, hair is spectacular and you'll feel like a new woman! Guaranteed.

I've been coming here every 2-3 weeks for the last few years for a men's cut. I used to bounce from barber to barber but since Tim started cutting my hair I wouldn't trust anyone else. I would highly recommend this place if you're looking for a home for your hair!

Thank you Katie! I love my Mermaid hair!

First and foremost when I set out to make any changes to my appearance I google and research the heck out of whatever it may be before actually doing it! I would hate to try "try" or "change" something only to find out had I done my homework I could have avoided the disaster from the get go. That being said I decided to try extensions and have had every sort of clip in, head banded, so called amazing no damaging kind there is!! After wasting my time, money and effort into all that I was ready for some a little more "permanent" I came across Katie's page and immediately was drawn in. I started to read reviews some good some not so good and after much reading, reaching and debate decided to at least give the consultation a shot. No, I immediately did not get a response from Katie however when I called the studio the next day was able to schedule my appointment. A couple weeks later it was time for my consultation. IN DETAIL Katie explained the extensions, the process and we agreed on my "vision" of what I wanted. I was EXTREMELY excited and comfortable about the whole process at this point and TRUST ME ran her through the ringer with questions. I was ready to set up my day and time to get them and it couldn't come fast enough! On the day I was getting my extensions I sat down and immediately Katie and I went to talking. It was like we had been friends for years. Throughout our conversation she would keep me updated on what she was doing and asked me if there was any discomfort etc. A couple hours later it was time for my big reveal and I was speechless. They were even more beautiful than I had imagined! I want everyone to understand too I did NOT want DRASTIC! I wanted only the 18' extensions and natural looking highlights which was achieved because of the highlights. I did not want nor care for people to know what I had done! I have to give it to Katie she did just that! People over the next few weeks and then months kept complimenting my hair and asking if I had got it cut differently and pointed out they loved the color change. THANK YOU KATIE for keeping it exactly as we discussed. Of course with extensions comes a lot of care and maintenance! I will say Katie made this very clear from the get go and even has a print out sheet to help you stay on track!Please understand extensions are an INVESTMENT and REQUIRES WORK! In fact I was a little overwhelmed at first with extra steps needed in my daily hair care regiment but it eventually becomes second nature. I have read comments on here about the quality in the hair and massive amounts negative things but have to wonder... Did you truly follow the steps she gave you? AND did you use the products SHE recommended and even has available? Let's face it we try and cut corners and save ourselves money by buying the bargain and sale hair care products... Can not do this with extensions! There is a reason she recommends what she does and if you want to protect your investment you will buy what has! For the record she profits NOTHING from these sales so you're not being scammed. As far as discomfort goes the beads are tiny foreign objects close to your scalp so I will go with tinder but not painful! By day three a couple times I had forgotten I even had them. Now it's time for my "maintenance" which was scheduled in advance from my initial visit. For this you will not have have Katie she as she is the extension installation queen so you will have one of her assistants. I promise you this is ok! I see why some panic upon the starting of having your extensions tightened as yes hair does come out and fall to the floor this is normal and ok because NO it's not your REAL hair. It's just the tangles that get brushed out and pulled from the original extension hair strand. Sorry but I personally do not want stringy or tangled extensions tightened back up onto my head so thank you for brushing them out! Now for the fun part!! I am naturally platinum blonde however love rocking a brunette. Per Katie I was recommended to Alex who has worked with clients with extensions before (again only trying to protect my investment). She was phenomenal! A have a solid routine now between my color and tightening my extensions and I love it! All in all my mermaid extensions are worth the investment and my efforts! I love them and will continue to have them as long as I can and if for any reason I have any complaints I promise I will post those as well. I typically don't write reviews but feel the need to now because who knows maybe there are other weirdos like me who Google, research and review the crap out of things before any consideration is given! Hope this helps and who knows after this novel I just wrote I may become an author!

My best friend's wedding, my trip to other countries, or just another week day and they make my whole week. I come in for a men's haircut. I have been to so many places and Haru Salon is the only one for me. I can trust them to do an outstanding job and leave me filling with confidence. I'll walk you through the process. First they don you with two capes and another item for your neck. Is it cold? They have a closet that warms up your jacket. Second they wash and massage your hair and your back in a massage chair. Next they cut your hair to your liking and walk you through the process - they will tell you what looks good and why. With the amount of meticulous care I've seen them take compared to anyone else blows me out the water. Another hair wash (okay this is new to me since I have never seen a second hair wash in the North) and styling, waxing, blow drying your hair. I cannot emphasize how much I love this place and will always return. Keep up the amazing work!

A few weeks ago, after reading the reviews and having been familiar with the Frederic Fekkai…read moresalons, I came for a 1" trim to my long-time, blunt-cut, medium-length (3 inches below the chin), slightly angled bob, beveled a bit underneath at the nape. It was quickly dried and styled in center or side parts, with lots of volume, lift and swing. Elegant and easy. Derek said he couldn't understand me. I should have left immediately. What I have now is an inexplicable cut, 2-5 " off, barely chin length, huge amounts of hair removed, wispy layers everywhere, and texturizing. He has activated a mass of waves and curls never seen before. From the front, the shape is a cartoonish wide diamond. From the sides, a fat wedge. This is the opposite of what is required for copious, European, fine, porous hair with a nape curl and minimal wave. Derek basically has created a White girl Afro. He somehow dried it beautifully, disguising the weird architectural structure by using a tiny brush on myriad narrow strands, drying them straight, and contorting them via elaborate manual sculpting techniques, product and nearly an hour of work. Maybe he planned to do twice-weekly blowdries on it. I have spent many days and dollars elsewhere experimenting with product, techniques and professional advice while attempting to cope. Derek pleasantly refunded the charges and apologized for the "inconvenience." This is far worse than inconvenient.

If you are thinking about getting your hair done but is afraid that your stylist is unable to get…read moreyour hair to where you would like it to be, then you definitely should visit John. John is knowledgeable in different types of cuts, colors, and types of hair, so if you're unsure whether he will know how to deal with your hair, don't be -- HE WILL KNOW! Not only that, his prices are cheaper than others. I've scoured Google and Yelp for a few days and decided that I absolutely wanted to go with him because he had all good reviews, shows his cuts and styles on Instagram, and is booked for months out. Because of this, it's best to schedule a haircut online with him -- you'll be able to find last-minute openings. John is patient, knowledgeable, and kind. He's there to give you a haircut, but he's also there to spread some knowledge. He showed me how he was cutting my hair and why he was doing it. His consultation was also very helpful, especially because I didn't know anything about hair and how to style it. I wanted to change the way my hair looked in both style and color, and John was there to give feedback and what he thought was in my best interest. I felt like he should have charged for his consultation because he spent a GOOD amount of time providing advice and feedback, time that's worth money, especially when I was his last client for the day and it was getting late. Because he didn't charge extra for consultation, I provided a good tip. What I wish beforehand, which isn't really John's fault, is how to enter the building. It was late, so the door was locked -- luckily, there was someone who let me in. If you ever encounter this situation, just text John and he'll come open the door for you! Overall, I believe I am a permanent client of John's. My husband loves my hair and believes that John did a really good job, especially for the price you're paying. I highly recommend John!

After the eventual wash, he left me to style my own hair while he went and talked to another guest right beside me. While writing this review he looks at my phone and comments. This is crazy, and what I was left with was nothing even remotely close to what I had asked for in the picture. Which once again, another factor of him refusing to give a yes or no. The only thing we were clear on in the end is that the cut and style were sub-par, and that I did NOT want to pay.
