Best Color and Cut Ever

by LStillz at Citysearch

I absolutely love Jessica. Every time I get my hair highlighted, I can expect a ton of compliments. I'm loving life as a blond and am so happy she took me there. I've also always had massive quantities of hair, a ton of it and really thick. She is the only person who could tame the wild beast. The only problem is my haircut is always way cooler, hipper and trendier than I am. But I'm trying to catch up!

• Pros: staff, price, colorist
• Cons: my hair is cooler than I am

YAY ORBIT

by heathercook at Citysearch

Ross is awesome. Ross is Ross-some! I've been going to him for a year and a half. I got my hair done yesterday, and I love it. He can always keep up with my hairbrained ideas (PUN), and add his genius to them to make them even better. He is an artist. Ross, you can't leave Austin. Ever. I love the salon too, it's really cute and the staff are super nice.

• Pros: great location, great customer service, and ROSS

If you're looking for a new salon...look no further!

Having just moved to Austin from Oregon about a month ago I was very apprehensive about finding a new stylist/salon that I would love. I found Orbit Salon on the internet and made my appointment. What a wonderful experience! I can't say enough good things. The staff are super friendly and Ross is awesome!! I tried a new cut and he got it spot on perfect. He is truly an artist and a great , friendly guy. So, if you're looking for a new salon I would try Orbit. You can't go wrong!!

Don't be fooled - Orbit & Ross are Austin gems

by Babsikins at Citysearch

I discovered Orbit a couple of years ago. I went to a couple of different stylists before I landed in Ross's chair. The other stylists were very good, but Ross seemed to be able to read my mind and understand my hair better than anyone has in over 23 years. I've tried everything from bold to subtle cut/color, short to medium-long cuts, and been happy. Even better - both of my daughters LOVE him. My emo 12-year old said he's a genius and proudly displays a picture of herself with Ross on her Facebook page (she's super gregarious and had a great time "dishing" with Ross). My hip, style-conscious 18-year old loves her cuts and said he did exactly what she wanted without her having to say much (she's the quiet type).

I have to appear on TV and in the media as part of my job and can always be sure that the cut is fun enough for a night on the town, but adaptable enough to do a TV appearance and look "professional."

• Pros: excellent cut/color, fun atmosphere, web appts
• Cons: none

This was my first visit to Orbit and I'm SO glad I tried it out. Jessica Edwards gave me the cooooolest haircut I've ever had!!! I think I gave her quite a bit of leniency and I'm really glad I did. I am just in shock over how much better a really good haircut can make me look. I seriously look 100x more hip! Thank you Jessica! I will DEFINITELY be coming back here.
