I've been seeing Carianne for cuts and Melissa for color for about 6 months now; they are both absolutely WONDERFUL. They're easy to work with and very honest when it comes to telling me what will and won't work with my facial structure and hair type; and they've not only improved the condition of my hair, they've actually made it look GOOD! (AND I don't feel as though I need for them to be in my bathroom every morning while I do my hair, either ... the style is simple but exactly what I wanted.)\r
Both of the girls are young, with funky hairstyles [compared to me, anyway] -- and I was slightly leery of what they might end up doing to me ... but there was nothing to worry about. They actually listen to you and WORK with you -- and the salon always seems to have an opening when I need it!\r
I've tried several other ""upscale"" salons in Austin, but I will never leave Avant -- unless Carianne and Melissa do!\r
Pros: Wonderful stylists
Cons: Front desk staff sort of snotty
