Salon Virtue

I think Steph is great! she gives the best scapl massage ever which keeps me coming back every Friday. The salon itself is so cool and intimate, never crazy people running around, and always something cold to drink. more

Returning from Iraq there are a lot of places where I'm uncomfortable; Steph and the rest of Grapevine know how to make a comfortable atmosphere which is a MUST for me. I tried a barber shop and the location was bad, plus they just wanted me to get in and get out. Steph took the time to show me what kind of style would have a professional look, but also adhere to the military regulations, what resulted is a haircut that looks straight out of Mad Men! I get compliments all the time, and when I reply I tell them to talk to Steph. Pros: 1 on 1, awesome atmosphere, great conversation! Cons: There's only one Steph. more

I've been going to Stephanie for 3.5 years now and have gone from dark to blonde, long to short - i'm more than pleased with every style. I have very thick hair, and she doesn't complain like ALL other past stylists have. Pros: great with color and short cuts - doesn't talk your ear off Cons: no cons! more

The best cut and color I have ever had, Stephanie does a great job! I have curly hair that sometimes I like to wear curly and sometimes I like to wear strait. Stephanie gave me a great cut/color that works well for both (no fluffy triangle hair!). more

Stephanie sooo good at what she does. I'm pretty picky about my hair but as a hair stylist she handles that with grace and always does an excellent job with my hair. My hair is curly but I also wear it straight sometimes so it's important that my haircut work for both looks. And it does! I love the head massage she gives... so relaxing! She also took the time to show me some ways to put up my long hair...really helpful. Plus she's just a sweet, encouraging person so it's always a joy to be there with her! Pros: Skilled Hair Stylists & Central Location more

I have been going to Steph since I moved to Austin 3 1/2 years ago and have never been happier with my hair! I literally get compliments everyday:) I have had many different styles. I can bring in a picture and she has been able to duplicate it everytime. She is very patient with my indecision and is always there to offer guidance for cut and color. Pros: Easy to style hair, friendly service Cons: none!! more

1) Stephanie at Grape Vine is an awesome combo. I've alway had some gripes with how the whole haircut stuff was done in general.... but no more. Everything from setting up the appointment to paying is done with Stephanie. I love the fact that I can just send a text and see when she has time. And I guess it's because she does her own booking... but I NEVER have to wait for her to finish up with someone. So in 2-3 years or so I've just been able to go in and get started right away. 2) I've been to many different people but no one comes close to Stephanie's shampooing/head massage. You really won't know what you're missing until you find out for yourself. 3) The idea of a private suite is really cool. You never feel awkward being escorted across a salon with funky hair and it's just so easy being centralized during the whole cut like that. And the view is really great. 4) Obviously, the main reason to read haircut reviews is to find out how good a job they'll do. Stephanie definitely exceeds in this area as well. She is the only person to date I've found that can CONSISTENTLY give me a great haircut. I'm a 20s male with thick curly hair. Most guys my age with curls have such a tough time dealing with this kind of hair that we basically just buzz it off. After meeting Stephanie I've never thought about buzzing it off. She does such a great job. And it's not just curly hair. One of my girl friends with straight hair started going to Stephanie after losing one of her stylists and she's been very happy. 5) She goes the extra mile and doesn't cut corners. Since my hair is so thick I often have to shower immediately after haircuts because there is just too much hair everywhere! It's something I've just become accustom to doing. Stephanie actually takes me back to the sink to rinse out before sending me on my way on her own initiative. 6) Last but not least! Stephanie herself has AWESOME hair. I'm probably being ridiculous, but I've always found it kind of annoying to try out ""curly hair specialists"" and notice that they've taken the easy way out and just straighten their hair. That, and I just feel better getting my hair cut by someone who has awesome-looking hair. Pros: great value, head massage/shampooing, can text appts. more

Steph is amazing. I have been going to her for about three years now. She is able to tame my wild curly hair, which by itself would be enough, but then you add the color and highlights. Each time I love it a little bit more. Pros: Fantastic with Curly Hair and Amazing Color Cons: None more

stephanie meets all my requirements for a stylist, laid back, relaxing refreshing atmosphere at her private location, and flexible scheduling! she has great ideas about styles if i ask, but is never pushy, and can often fit me in if i am in that ""i cannot stand this hair one more day!"" mood. she has recently started cutting my boyfriends hair and he loves it. he actually got compliments from 3 different guy friends! Pros: relaxing atmosphere Cons: none! more

I have been a customer of Steph for 3 years. She always understands what I want my hair to look like and delivers. The best thing is that your appointment is never pushed back and that you can set up your appointment by texting, another great thing is the personalized attention and service Steph provides, as well as a great 1x1 enviroment with no unwanted distractions only great conversation. Pros: Personalized service, great location and enviroment Cons: Parking for the first time more

Stephanie Weise will knock your socks off! My hair has never looked better than it does now. Haircuts are so relaxing with her. You will love her scalp massages! The client selects the music. She offers wine and sodas. She has a private studio with a view of the UT tower. For my whole life, I thought my hair was straight. But, with her haircuts and special hair products...presto - chango---now I can make my hair curly. Thank you Stephanie for making my hair look so great everyday. Pros: Great with curly hair, flexible booking times, scalp massage Cons: nothing more
