This place is a little bit pricy compared to most places ($25 for a guy cut w/ no wash) but thats because you get a quality hair cut by experienced stylists. I got a faux-hawk by Debbie Jo and she finished everything in 15 minutes! She was very nice and I highly recommend her to any guy or girl who wants a quality cut. She gave me exactly the look I was going for and I'm extremely happy with my new cut. My only 2 complaints were: 1. A shampoo doesn't come with a standard haircut like at my prior stylist 2. A cleanup brush was not used afterwards on me so I had hair in my ears, on my shirt, on my face etc. Neither of these were a big deal but I definitely would've enjoyed my experience more if these came standard for all cuts. Great experience overall though.
Pros: Friendly Staff, Quality Haircuts, Quick Service
Cons: A Little Bit Pricy, No Wash With Standard Cut, No Post Brush When Cut Is Done

Excellent cut and color--very hard to find in one stylist! I, too, went to a Stone Oak salon and when I arrived home, realized that my 'one-length' hair had not been cut to any one-length by the master stylist and was so bad that I had to trim it myself. I've been to several Aveda salons in the area, as they were always very reliable in the Northeast-not the case in San Antonio> If you are looking for an excellent stylist, I highly recommend Yvonne at Hair Studio Sonterra. She took the time to be sure the color we selected in our consultation was exactly what I wanted and explained all of what she was doing throughout the cut and color. I could not have been happier..
Pros: Experienced stylist explained everything and was very friendly
Cons: Location not what you'd expect for a nice salon

Overall a pleasent experience. I went in to the salon on a Monday, when most salons aren't even open, and my stylist Yvonne was so sweet and really listened to what I was looking for. And gave me just what I wanted! All the stylists were friendly. And the receptionist was so kind, warm, and friendly. This salon definitely has a great team of experienced individuals!
Pros: Friendly staff, great atmosphere

I can not recommend this salon enough. From the friendly staff to the great cut, it was all good. Melissa did exactly what I wanted and showed me step by step how to achieve the look I was going for. After two days my hair still looks good and I can style it myself. Big plus for me. In the past I leave the salon looking good, but once I shampoo it's all down hill from there. My hair has never looked better. I've been looking for a salon close to home and I have found it. Thanks Melissa, your the best.
Pros: great cut, friendly staff, great stylist who knows what she is doing
Cons: it's a little expensive

I just went to Hair Studio for the first time to fix the worst cut I've ever received). Shellie was so accommodating, and squeezed me in last minute to help me get it fixed. She was quick and efficient, without sacrificing the quality of the style. One of the best cuts I've received in a while! I highly recommend this salon and Shellie as a stylist!
Pros: Great cut, Great customer service
Cons: None... I'm so happy!

My first experience with a stylist in San Antonio was awesome. I struggled to find a stylist in Phoenix for 15 months & never found one I liked. As usual, I relied on CitySearch to point me in the right direction. Boy, am I glad! I called & was able to get an appointment the same day. According to the receptionist, Mondays are usually slow for them. Yes, I said Mondays. This salon is open on Mondays! I arrived early to my appointment because I left my house early in case I got lost but I found it right away. Which is saying a lot for me, I am navigationally challenged. I was greeted right away by three friendly ladies at the front counter. I was offered something to drink several times while I waited. I was a bit disappointed that my appointment was at 2pm and my stylist did not come out to greet me promptly at 2pm, even to say she is running late. However, she did appear about 20 minutes after my appt time and was very friendly. She was very pleasant & we had a pleasant conversation while she gave me highlights, lowlights, and a cut. My stylist was Yvonne & she transformed my hair, which had not been touched in over nine months, to a work of art. It is so beautiful! The color is amazing. I came home & my husband told me that he thought this was the best hair I have ever had. He took me to dinner & we had a wonderful, romantic evening. Thanks to Yvonne for adding some spark to my marriage & bringing out the romantic in my man! It was worth the $190 just to see my husband look at me that way.
Pros: High quality color & cut.
Cons: Expensive but you get what you pay for</SPA

I have thick shoulder length hair with a little gray. My hair has always been hard to handle but lately out of control. My old stylist just kept doing the same old thing. I decided to try looking on City Search, I have used them when I travel but this was the first time for a salon. My entire experience was wonderful. The Place is beautiful and Debbie gave me a layered new look that everyone loves including my husban

The new location is super convenient and very nice. I have been getting my hair colored there for several months now and am always happy with the end result. The staff is very accomodating, friendly, and they do a great job of listening to what your goals are. I've left feeling and looking fantastic everytime. I would highly recommend the Hair Studio if you are looking for a top-notch salon in San Antoni

I recently had a bad cut that I lived with for 2 months before I decided to try and find a new salon. I saw this salon rated on citysearch and decided to try it. When I called the receptionist was incredibly helpful in finding me a stylist who could cut curly hair and set me up with a stylist named Patricia. Patricia had curly hair, so she knew what it was like, and gave me a beautiful hair-cut! FINALLY!! the one stylist who got it right! It was exactly what I wanted and I didn't even have to spend hours explaining it to her. She noticed my hair was cut unevenly and assured me that everything would be fixed, and it was. The salon itself is beautiful and everyone is so very friendly. I would recommend this salon to anyone looking for great customer service and a beautiful new look.
Pros: ambience, customer service, parking
Cons: can't find the building!</SPA

First, I must admit I AM "that" customer that most salons fake a smile to see because I have learned to express dissatisfaction after paying $200 for coloring/cuts that stylists pretended to like on me-but that my family and friends had to tell me looked AWFUL!! After years of leaving salons (from New York to LA) unhappy with the results, I began to believe that what I had been asking stylists to do REALLY was impossible. Sadly, I have also become used to people who find the easiest, cheapest, fastest way to make a buck with no regard for taking pride in the work they do. Luckily, I remained unsatisfied with all the pricey color "experiments" I paid top dollar for in the past and brought my search here--where I read all the + reviews @ THIS PLACE and took a chance! After living all over the US, having my hair done in MANY (an understatement at best) high priced, top rated salons AND paying over $300/visit I can confidently say this was by far the BEST salon I have encountered bar none! From making the appointment (SUPER friendly receptionist, great attitude and answered ALL of my many ?s) to my stylist aka HAIR GENIUS!!(LAURA) who took her time, listened to what I was aiming for and literally accomplished a feat I previously thought impossible!! My hair is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!, and despite this being my FIRST visit she got it 210% RIGHT! Gone are my days of debating returning to salons for "color corrections"! I HIGHLY (and without reservation) recommend this salon (sp. LAURA!) I am thankful for all the HONEST reviewers who led me to this jem! I wish I had researched earlier and saved myself from the absolute salon horrors I have experienced at other SA spa/salons. I had NO idea my hair COULD look this fabulous! Oh, and this is an AUTHENTIC review, written by a real, non salon-affliated customer (I always wonder @ that when I read some of these...) THANKS AGAIN!!

I visted Shellie after having my hair destroyed at Toni and Guy. My hair was fried! Shellie found a color that was a natural me and gave me an awesome swing bob. My husband loves it and everyone wants to know who does my hair!
Pros: super nice people, great service, stylists really care about how you look
Cons: none!</SPA</SPA
