Hair Colorists in Austin, TX

I'm curious too. I'm tagging along to see if you get any answers.

I've seen both Katie Callais and Michelle McClendon at Method.Hair and LOVE them both. My boyfriend sees Michelle as well and has sworn off anyone else forever. Katie is a bit more expensive to see, and busier too, but they are both excellent and do a wonderful job coloring hair - especially if you're interested in COLOR color as opposed to blondes/browns. They've both dyed my hair various shades of blue, purple, and blonde and each time is perfect. I'd say the only difference is that Michelle is probably better at bolder colors whereas Katie is better at more subtle, softer shades. Method is a bit on the expensive side but absolutely a million times worth it.

[Jessica Tate](http://www.thejessicatatehair.com/) at [Mantis Salon](https://www.facebook.com/mantissalon/)! She's amazing with color. I've recommended her to several people who became regular clients.:) (Just fyi, that phone number on her website is her cell phone and she will make appointments by text message or phone.)

Scarlett at [Hearts and Robots](http://www.heartsandrobots.org/) has been my go to for a year and a half now.

Check out the crew at Path Salon. All fabulous in my opinion.

Jordan at Maximum FX on congress.

The stylists at Spruce Salon are magical, but they're in Bee Cave.

https://www.facebook.com/BKHairArtistry/ Bobbie is pretty much a goddess of color. I get stopped literally-not-figuratively every time I leave the house and asked where I got my hair done and can I please share my stylist's info. She specializes in bayalage, updos, long-lasting neons, and vivids, and is amazing with more natural colors as well. She's also amazingly affordable. High end NY quality at mid-level ATX prices.

Rachel Saxon at Amaz for Hair. She literally does it all. She's got a big personality and big heart! Plus the salon is small relaxed and super friendly! Most of her work is on Instagram@saxonhairatx

Rachel Carr at Jose Ruiz S. Lamar does gorgeous Balyage.

I got to Brad Joe at Red Stella, and I love my hair. He focuses on more natural looking color...but they also have a lot of stylists that do all sorts of awesome things with color. Their [Instagram feed](https://www.instagram.com/redstellasalon/) has a lot of good examples of their color work.

Jim at Bradz on 35 th. Dude has like 35 years of experience and it's an Aveda salon.

I LOVE Kalea at Kalour Studios on South Congress. Pricey but honestly an artist with hair color. I get more compliments with her coloring me hair now, then I ever did on my hair my whole life.

Brooke at Shag Salon is a color wizard. http://brookeellington.com/

Lola at [zigzag](http://www.yelp.com/biz/zig-zag-salon-austin?q=lola) is great w/ color, IMO.

Sarah Swofford. I don't color my hair, but I have friends who do. She's great, apparently. https://www.facebook.com/Swoffstyle/?pnref=lhc

Lidia at Topaz Salon on south Lamar does some beautiful work

Rachel Carr at Jose Ruiz S. Lamar does gorgeous Balyage.

Eufora Stylist of the year and Raw Awards Austin Stylist of the year Asta Luster-Eufora #LusterHairLounge. Official color Educator to stylists as well ;)

Brook Ellington at Orange Salon. She's awesome and just did my Balayage. She won't let you of if the chair until it's perfect!

Ericka Rodriguez. I have dark Asian/black hair and she's made me blonde twice, this time more of a platinum blonde than last. Hardly any damage each time, she's the best with color. I can give your her number in a PM. Good luck!

If you can't find someone in ATX,@kittydoeshair (on IG) specialises in these colours on asian hair. She's in Houston at Shampū Salon in midtown. She's amazing and always booked up, with a wait list.

Kalea Renee!!

Went bald in my 20 s what’s a hair salon and colorist? Lol.

Why? So, you want to look like what you will start to look like in 20 more years...your parents must be proud

Victoria at Vain in east Austin. Trendy salon and Victoria is very up on her coloring techniques. She was just talking to me about classes she took with the person who does Kylie Jenner's hair and Victoria rocks silver and black in her hair. Have always gotten a great cut from her and she is passionate about coloring.

I don't know about what you're looking for specifically but the last time I made a major hairstyle change I went to [Jose Luis Salon](http://www.joseluissalon.com/). It was just *before* ombre was really in and my stylist was trying to convince me to do it but I thought it was too weird. I should have listened to her; I would have been so cutting edge! My point is, from what I saw they have a stylists with varying degrees of skill and specialty so you could probably call up there and talk to them about this and they'd have just the person with umpteen years of experience.

Method hair is a very good "trendy" salon. I've notvhad it done but I know the colonists have experience with grey and pastels as i was just chatting about the trend with my stylist.

Try urban Betty - I go to Laura but there is a girl who posts on fb page that does realllly cool stuff with color. Good luck!

Derrick at Garbo A Salon

Bella salon on w. 6 th street before you hit Mopac on the left side. Ask for Amiee! I love her!!

I have a friend that works at Red Stella salon and she posts some badass colors like that on Instagram. Lamar and 51 st st area.

I had pastel hair. Most colorists won't take you from dark brown to pastel in one sitting, as it's going to massively fry your hair (experience), but they will take you there in a hair-safe way. I recommend my gal Kallie over at Frenchy's Salon. Probably any of them could do it, since most of the folks over there are quite alternative and hip. Plus, it's the cutest salon. I believe if you mention Yelp you also get a 15% discount...or this was true a few years ago at least.
