I've been going to Capelli for about 5 years and have never had a bad experience. Denerae is amazing. She always gives me the best cuts and/or color and if I go in and have no idea what I want, she works her magic! I've been to other salons and felt like I was treated like a nobody because I'm not a typical trendy place kind of gal. But these very cool and chic people made me feel so comfortable and I don't mind spending my money there, whether it's on the services or Bumble and Bumble products. Pros: relaxed, fun, chic, great cuts and color, inexpensive Cons: parking

when it comes to my hair, i am ridiculously selective. before moving to austin two years ago, only three people had ever touched my hair in 26 years. i took a leap of faith and went to david @ capelli per the suggestion of a good friend; he is also pretty snobby, er, picky about his hair. i could not have made a better decision. my first visit with david was to chop off 14 inches of my thick, curly brown hair (i'd been growing it for eight years and decided it was time for a change), and i felt bad for the poor guy for getting such a nutcase new client freaking out about losing so much hair. but he was sympathetic and encouraging and assured me he would give me a great new cut. and he most certainly did. i walked in with hair down to my butt, and walked out with a super cute shoulder length 'do. they also took care of the paperwork/procedure for donating my hair to locks of love. i've been going to david ever since. he is an expert on how to cut curly hair (which is hard to find), and is great about listening to and doing what you are looking for. not to mention he's super fun - i always want to stay longer and talk to him :) the salon is quaint and funky, and david has also gotten me addicted to its bumble & bumble products. i was a cynic who thought drugstore products did the trick just as well as the salon stuff, but using b&b has changed my opinion (and my hair) entirely. their curl conscious line is amazing, and is totally worth the price. and with the steal i get for my visits to the salon, it totally evens out. i pay far too little for the amazing service i get from david and capelli. i. love. this. place. Pros: great price, great products, great service Cons: limited parking

I am so glad I listened to all the reviews on citysearch! I just had my cut with Lisa today who is so sweet and amazing. She actually spent a good 10 mins or so with me just looking at my hair and talking to me about exactly what we were going to do. She really paid attention to my hair texture and what would work best for me, instead of just doing the same cut she did on someone last week. It was a great experience, go to Lisa she is fantastic and reasonably priced too! Win win all around and I love my new cut. I will definitely return to Lisa, give her a try! Pros: Great service, talanted stylist, warm/welcoming enviornment Cons: Parking

I would like to recommend Lisa for any haircut, style or color for anyone. She did a fabulous job on my hair. The cut was awesome-probably the best I have had. The color was different because it wasn't all about the blonde highlights like I usually get. I really liked it. My boyfriend got his haircut from her and he absolutely loves it. Lisa has done my hair before and each time it seems to get better

I just moved here to Austin and have heard great reviews about Capelli. I thought I would give them a try. I heard great things about Lisa specifically so I booked an appointment with her. The atmosphere is awesome. It's relaxed and comfortable. They offer beverages too! Lisa gave me the best haircut and highlight I have ever had and I have been to many, many salons. She listened to what I wanted and gave me some great styling tips! Go see Lisa! Pros: Friendly Staff! Cons: None!

I have been going to this salon for over three years. The atmosphere is cozy and casual, yet chic, the central location is great, and the Bumble and Bumble products are the best I have ever used. The service is warm and friendly, and the stylists are all experienced and amazingly good at what they do. I highly recommend this salon. Pros: Location, Atmosphere, Friendly Service, Excellent Cuts/Color, Reasonably Priced Cons: Bumble & Bumble products are a little expensive, but definitely worth it!

Capelli just hasn't lived up to the CitySearch reviews. I had a salon I loved outside NYC and had previously had a great haircut that I wanted to copy. I brought in photos of myself and described in detail what I wanted, but my stylist didn't really pay much attention to what I'd asked for. I understand when a stylist makes suggestions or asks if she can tweak what you are asking for to suit your face or hair, but there was no discussion, just a different haircut than I'd asked for because it would be "better." It wasn't bad, but it wasn't an improvement over the old cut and it wasn't what I wanted. I was then blow-dried and curled into looking like an anchorwoman, much to the amusement of my boyfriend. I was also pressured to buy Bumble & Bumble products, which I stupidly did. They did nothing good for my hair and are outrageously expensive at full-price. I continue to go there out of inertia. The cuts aren't bad and they aren't overly expensive, but I'd never trust them to do a big change or color. I now ignore all styling advice and flat iron out the absurd looking curls as soon as I get home. I've had some hideous haircuts in my lifetime, and don't want to risk going from good enough to awful in search of perfection. I've got long enough hair that the cut doesn't have to be particularly amazing for it to look good so until somebody with great hair who I trust recommends a particular salon/stylist, I'll continue to go to Capelli. But I wouldn't have started going if I'd known what a disappointment it would be after all these glowing reviews. Pros: Decent cuts, not too expensive Cons: Not nearly as good as these reviews make it out to be

I recently relocated to austin and needed a new stylist to replace the one i loved in my old town. I was very close to her so she left big shoes to fill. A friend of mine mentioned that she knew an amazing stylist so I set up an appointment. Well needless to say, those very big shoes were filled after just my first visit with Ann. I went into capelli with no real directions to give Ann but she took my hair and gave me the best haircut I have ever had. She spent so much time with me making sure that it was exactly what I wanted and making sure that I would have no trouble maintaining it. I cannot recommend her enough. AMAZING stylist and truly one of the nicest people I have ever met! Pros: amazing stylist, ambience Cons: non
