  22. Abby is amazing
    I'm new to Austin and I had a great salon back in my old town, so I was nervous about having to switch. I can't believe I scored so well on my first try. I've been back twice now and both times I've loved the results. My stylist is Abby. She's a total magician with color - she fixed my messed-up multi-dyed hair, made it look great and feel really healthy. She also has a great eye for picking o...

  23. Jen? is totally rad!
    Jen? has been my stylist for over 8 years now. I drive from Dallas to Austin to get my hair done. My Big D friends dog because I make the long drive for just a "hair cut", but she's worth the drive. I've had 2 hair-affairs in the last 8 years that I regretted. I will never again. This woman is awesome at her craft & just awesome to be around. I totally trust my locks in her hand. MWAH!

  24. get a great haircut!
    Electra is a very comfortable, friendly salon. I want to especially recommend BARBARA for hiar cutting/styling. She's just very talented at what she does, and will give anyone a great cut. Have sent two friends to her and they were both very happy. Go in with confidence to have her cut or style your hair!

  25. Barbara
    I followed Barbara from her previous salon because she is such a talented and caring individual. Never have I been to a stylist who takes such time and care for my needs. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

  26. Barbara ROCKS!
    I took pictures in of my ideal style for Barbara and I was surprised by her enthusiasm to get my new look going. She is a great gal, but most importantly, she's a stylist that GETS IT! My new do ended up looking like the examples I showed her. It's been a while since I've left a salon absolutely amped about my new cut / style, but Barbara changed that! You can tell that she stays on top of being ...

  27. I love this place!
    I have been going to Jene for a few years now and have never been disappointed! Invariably, I receive compliments on my hair for weeks after I have seen her. She has always worked wonders styling my curly hair and recently she colored it for the first time. I LOVE IT! Did I mention I love it?

  28. Electra is a fabulous salon!
    I have lived in Austin for almost 2 yrs. I've been to a few salons here, but I was never 100% happy. I'd heard a couple of co-workers talking about Electra Beauty Lounge and was driving by the other day so I decided to check if anyone was available to take me. It was my lucky day! Jesse Vain took me to his chair and we got to work. It is the best cut I have ever had! I absolutely love it! My lon...

  29. !The best colorist I have ever had
    Go to Jen? at Electra! I have trusted but one person in my entire life to color my hair and I went to her for 10 years then moved to Austin and a friend of mine suggested I go to her sister Jen? at Electra. BEST decision I could have made! She gave me the best cut and color job I have ever had. And she's just fun to be around while you're in a chair for 2 hours :)

  30. Love it.
    Seen Abby three or four times in the last year and just love her. I get great haircuts, good recommendations, fun color, and she gives a mean head massage with shampoo. I'm always offered water, wine, or beer, and love the random musical selections.

  31. Great salon, Ask for Jen?
    I've been going to Jene for nearly 10 years and have followed her to Electra. The salon is neatly kept, always full of live and GREAT music. It all starts with a great shampoo and head massage (delish) and just gets better from there. I've had many stylists in my life and Jene is by far the best. She's always spot-on with the style I want and always has creative ideas for color and cut. I'm NEVER...

  32. Jene is my guru!
    Jene has been my hair girl for many years now and even though I live in LA now, I still see Jene everytime I'm back in Austin. Plus, I've always gotten the best shampoo, which less face it, is half the reason I get my hair done in the first place!

  34. Jesse Vain is the "Best in the Biz"
    This guy is a bonafide Rock Star hair dresser. He understands the subtlety of style that escapes so many of the people who use this profession as a last ditch effort at a real job. Jesse has always loved hair and its possibilities until he finally suffered in poverty perfecting his craft, to earn his license until he became the certified bonafide hair artist he is today. He will pay attention to...

  36. Barbara is awesome!
    I followed Barbara from her previous salon here and am very happy and pleased with her move. Barbara is a hair genius! I have extremely straight, fine hair (aka very boring) and for years now she has been making my hair look anything but ordinary. I am always happy with my cut and the great thing is that she makes it manageable for every day. She also does excellent color - I get so many comp...

  37. Kara R. is a hair genius
    I walked in to Electra on a whim one afternoon. I was so annoyed with my triangle shaped curls that I was willing to cut it all off and start over. Luckily, Kara was working that day and was willing to take some new clients. Kara has an incredible knack for understanding what her client wants and then taking their hair far beyond those expectations. I have been fighting my curly hair for years,...

  38. Jene=FABULOUS!
    I LOVE this salon! From the moment you walk in you feel comfortable and everyone there is friendly and down to earth. They have that great South Austin funky vibe without being pretentious. I have been going to Jene for years now and get complimented on my hair color and style constantly so I am always refering people to her. The staff makes you feel right at home and the head massages during sha...

  39. Barbara is the best!
    Barbara is new to Electra Beauty Lounge (I followed her from her old salon) and I cannot say enough good things about her. She is friendly and professional, and is very well educated about her field. I have the world's straightest hair and she cuts it better than anyone I've ever met. I just got a very dramatic cut with her today, and I brought it photos. She listened to what I wanted and did exa...

    Electra Beauty Lounge is a funky little studio nestled in the south lamar area. The atmosphere is very easygoing, and it is encompasses all the aspects of Austin perfectly, it is cool, local, and eclectic. I absolutely love the haircut that Barbara gives me, and she does both a great long, and short cut. She also does beautiful coloring, and the connection she makes with each of her clients is f...

  43. They do great hair!
    Kara at Electra Beauty Lounge does great hair! I've never had so many people ask me for my stylist's phone number as I have since I've been going to her. I get a cut and partial highlight every 6 weeks and she always does a great job. She's really creative and always has a good style in mind, even when I have no idea what to do with my hair. She's very knowledgeable about styles and products....

  45. Great Atmosphere, Better Hair
    Electra is an awesome salon with loads of character and excellent service. I would follow Emma to the ends of the earth. The woman has a gift. She can look at your hair and your face shape and give you a style that looks beyond fabulous. As a victim of naturally curly hair, Emma helped me embrace my fate and gave me a cut that I love and that draws compliments on a daily basis. I can't recommend ...

    I absolutely LOVE Electra Beauty Lounge and all of the wonderful folks there. The atmosphere is fun and inviting. I personally use Kara and she is amazing. She really takes her time and never rushes the haircut.....she is a perfectionist! I just went in this past Wednesday and she turned me from a red-head to a blonde and it looks wonderful. My husband and kids love it!!! I have never recei...

  47. Perfectly 'Austin' Salon!!
    I've recently moved to Austin and have been looking for a new salon. I've been in a hair funk for a long time so I was really excited that I was in Austin because I knew there had to be an 'Austin' salon. I drive past Electra everyday to and from work and actually paid attention a couple of weeks ago and figured out it was a salon. I finally had time to go this weekend and was not disappointed...

    I actually followed Kara to Electra from another salon; BIG improvement. The atmosphere at Electra is fun and friendly, yet completely professional without being pretentious. The environment there is always welcoming and relaxing and as soon as you walk in the door you automatically feel like you're among friends. I've been going to Kara for over a year now, and as long as she stays in Austin,...

  49. I love my new haircut from Electra!
    I went to Electra on a recommendation from a friend, and I was very pleased with the atmosphere, as well as my haircut and color. The salon itself has a unique feel: funky colors, young talented staff. And I was offered something to drink when I walked in, which is always a treat. As far as the hair is concerned: I had never had my hair colored so I was a bit nervous. But my stylist, Dora, w...

    I just visited my stylist at Electra, and she spiced up my usual highlights and haircut with a few awesome pink hair extensions!
