Wet Salon
Reviews
I am super happy with my almost-a-pixie hair cut from Lauren. She listened to me and shared her own opinions without being pushy at all. I felt like she got me. It took a while to sculpt up something that felt right, but everyone has liked it and I feel great. I really appreciate her patience, understanding and meticulous work. Tip - Monday is kinda chill and quiet at the salon, if you like that kind of thing.
Jimmy is excellent. I go to him for cut and highlights and every time I walk out of the salon I feel fantastic. After going to the same hairstylist for 25 years I was apprehensive to make a switch when I moved to Austin, therefore I continued to drive to Houston for a haircut, for years... I finally, hesitantly, tried two other salons in Austin and was not satisfied with either. Then my husband highly recommended Jimmy. After going to him one time I knew he was THE ONE. It's been 2 1'2 years and I don't have a negative thing to say. He is an amazing artist and takes great pride in his work. Highly recommend him!
Last night, I attended an art opening reception at Wet Salon. While I live walking distance from the salon, I had never before ventured any closer than just passing it on my way to another event. My first visit changed all of that because the first thing that impressed me about it is the hip laid-back unpretentious vibe of the place. The staff was super friendly and welcoming; and the space was open, airy, relaxing and marvelously decorated with original artwork of all kinds: some permanent and some of the artist who had his show up there. The salon is decorated semi-industrial style and with high ceilings, black leather couches and accented with a few sparkling chandeliers. But the unisex bathroom was my favorite part of the experience. I know, I have a thing for bathroom aesthetic and this one got the gold medal of the week. While the salon is called, Wet, with the word's many connotations, the bathroom was decorated in a decidedly religious kitsch manner. I adore the contradictions and irony of the place; and Wet will be my go-to salon for all things hair beauty related.
The decor in this So Co funky hair salon is enticing! I love the atmosphere, they always play local and GREAT music, and the hairstylists are very professional. I got a fantastic haircut for less than $65 with a shampoo/conditioning and a neck/shoulder massage. I was a walk-in but definitely would recommend making an appointment in the future. They can get so busy on the weekends so you have to make sure you allow extra time to be patient and lenient.
Walked in for a haircut the other day. Quick and quality service.
