Janet is very talented. She worked in NYC before relocating to Austin. She spends a lot of time with you making suggestions on the perfect style for you and step by step instructions on how to execute it on your own. Her cut is so good that you can go a long time between appointments. Janet will suggest products and tools to keep you salon looking fresh between appointments. She has a cool study whose vibe makes you want to go back.

Nancy is amazing and works magic with highlights. I'm a natural brunette and was looking for a change but no idea where to start with color or highlights. Nancy took over and gave me a beautiful look complimenting my skin tone and shape of my face. I highly recommend!

Many thanks to Janet and Jesse! Janet is as talented as I'd heard - a true master. I now have a fantastic modern cut that fits my lifestyle. And she took the time to teach me to style it myself. Many thanks to Janet and to Jesse for the relaxing shampoo.

I have been going to Janet St. Paul for years and plan on going forever. The salon is beautiful, clean and relaxing. I have never had another haircut or color that comes close to the quality, cutting edge experiences I have had with Janet and other staff members. They are always learning and researching as well to stay up-to-date on the latest styles and products. Try this salon! Your hair will thank you.

I got a great haircut from Shannon. However, she obviously double booked herself and started my haircut 30 minutes late and only after I had to tell the receptionist that I couldn't wait longer. Having a new client wait for 30 minutes it unacceptable. Mi time is just as valuable as the hairdresser's.

Very nice staff and I LOVE the Cezanne smoothing treatment (completely safe and formaldehyde-free). My hair is frizzy/damaged and the Cezanne treatment by Nancy (she did a great job!) makes it easy to style, soft and and smooth.
They are COVID-safe, lots of cleaning and disinfecting and everyone is wearing a mask.

Bought my wife a gift card to Janet St. Paul Studio and now I have a great marriage! Ok we had a great marriage to begin with, but that gesture sure didn't hurt :). She told me she enjoyed everyone there and had a fantastic experience. Support your local hair salon! This is the one to go to in Austin :)

I recently decided to get Microblading done on my thinning eyebrows and I was referred to Jessica at Janet St. Paul Salon and she did an amazing job. From start to finish Jessica was very professional. She took her time to explain to me the process and also the after care which was thorough. During the session she slowed down when I asked her to and took her time in order not to hurt me, and for that I am grateful. If you're looking to get micro blading done Jessica is the girl to get it done by. If you're looking for an amazing Microblading session, Jessica precise and an amazing conversationalist

Great experience and a great result!
I moved to Austin a little over a year ago, and it's taken me these 13 months to FINALLY find a great studio. It was clean and beautiful, and the customer service was wonderful.
I was greeted the second I walked in by a very friendly woman at the front desk that immediately guided me towards the changing room, and less than 2 minutes later I was in my chair, with a prosecco, and consulting with Linnea. I have very curly, dry hair that very few stylists know how to work with, but Linnea (who coincidentally has similar heritage and the same hair as me

Hi Folks, I should have written this review a couple of years ago. I've been to the Moody Theater a couple of times recently and have walked by the salon, each time reminded of the worst haircut I have ever received.
Full disclosure, I had great experiences with a former stylist there named Ashley and beautiful balayage highlights from Shannon. I naturally assumed getting my haircut by the owner would yield even more amazing results but I was so wrong. Janet doesn't actually wash, prep, or style the hair. She has others do this and comes in for the cutting part only. I had a bob at

This salon did not disappoint. I read the great reviews, checked out their IG and decided to book. I was impressed from booking the appt, to the explicit and detailed parking instruction, being greeted with a smile and choice of wine and the checkout experience was seamless. Rachel was wonderful and helpful! Conrad cut my hair and took his time to listen to what I wanted. He was fun, professional and gave me a great cut! I'm going back for color. Only thing is the salon is busy and it takes awhile to book but that's expected for a great salon. Everyone is kind and welcoming. The salon

Loved the experience here! Their entire staff is very attentive, sweet, and detail oriented! My stylist was Nicole and she did a beautiful job on my hair. I told her my concerns about how I don't like stylists blow drying my hair because they always burn it. She completely understood me and reassured me that there are ways not to burn your hair. She showed me some techniques to style my hair with minimal blowdrying. She took my choppy layers and turned it into a nice flowing style that is shorter in the back & longer in the front (not quite a lob...but close enough for me since I wanted

Been in Austin for 4 years. This was the first haircut I've had here that was great. Tried all the quick and dirty, free beer shops and I end up with a complete chop job. I was able to get in same day due to a cancellation. Shannon was clearly a professional. She took her time. Asked a lot of questions...the best. You get what you pay for. And none of the attitude from all the self absorbed cha cha's in the really high end spots. They provide free clean ups which makes sense. If you start with a great cut, the cleanup really does extend the cut. Not much point getting a cleanup on a cut

I am new to Austin, and when a double hair dilemma (self-inflicted) made me cringe I called a few salons to see if anyone could see me right away. Janet St Paul Salon was the only one who picked up, I spoke to Beth, who was very nice and easy to talk to on the phone. Luckily she had an appointment available that afternoon with one of her top stylist. Initially I was weary as to all of her qualifications, but Whitney really lives up to all the praise. She didn't even blink when I explained the reason for my teal hair color gone bad, and my kitchen scissor hair cut. She washed out most of the

Janet has been cutting my hair since she landed in Austin. She's a god send. Once you sit in her chair and get a great cut from her there's no turning back. I have incredibly thick hair and she has shown me how to have great style using my waves to my advantage vs straightening them. In addition, she has two different cuts for me one for the summer and one that for the fall when the humidity leaves Austin. I love that she knows me well enough to have that conversation and think through my look. That level of detail is what you can expect including getting tips on how to blow out your

Things did not start off well because my appointment was cancelled due to a miscommunication. However, the owner reached out to me and I was rescheduled for the same day. Once I came in, the staff was great! Alvaro apologized for the miscommunication and he told me my service would be courtesy of Janet St Paul Studio For Hair.They even comped me a shampoo! My colorist was a student named Jamie. She was really professional and with the guidance of her instructor, she did amazing balayage work. I absolutely love my hair!
The salon is mega chÍc, clean and comfortable. They offer complimentary beverages

Conrad Diaz is a rock star. The depth of talent at JSP is so solid, it's refreshing! When Conrad took on the tresses and did my entire mane using balayage technique, I was so impressed. It grew out amazingly, without the 'demarcation' line that highlighting with foil has left, in the past--which made it really go the distance between my next color appointment.
He is so pleasant, professional and fun. A delightful addition to the team. Highly recommend!
