I've never written a review before but because it's been so difficult to find a really good colorist/stylist in Austin (I've tried several over the last 3 years) I'm compelled to let people know they can finally stop searching. I had an appointment with Chris Kirkpatrick at Orbit Salon today and I am thrilled with the results. I have been flying from Austin to LA to get my hair done because I've been so disappointed with the hair options in Austin. I was ready to give up hope of ever finding a local spot to get my hair done when I decided to give Chris a try after reading the reviews on City Search. I'm very happy I took the leap. The highlights/lowlights are perfect and exactly what I wanted. The cut is great too! Not only was he able to achieve the color and cut I wanted but I believe that over time my confidence in him will build to the point where I will take bigger risks and get edgier with my hair. Chris was easy going and I felt very comfortable with him. If you're looking for a talented, knowledge and creative hairstylist in Austin, I highly recommend giving Chris a try.
