Best cut ive ever had

by One Love at Citysearch

I have never had a better cut than the cut I received from Aydrian. She really knows what she is doing. I came to her in dire need of an overhaul. I had been to another salon in town and got a horrible "stacked" bob. She was able to take the choppy worst cut of my life and turn it into a haircut that I have never gotten more compliments on. I went to Aydrian a couple of weeks later for my color and was equally impressed. Upon calling to make an appointment I just found out that Aydrian has left to work at Topaz salon. Im sure the other stylists are great at Keith Kristofer but I will follow Aydrian anywhere!

• Pros: best cut, great color

Unpleasant Surprise with Highlights

by luxbeauty at Citysearch

I went in to have my hair colored a shade darker (medium brown) with subtle highlights for a friend's wedding party the next day. I asked for subtle highlights, and not anything drastic. The highlights were foiled first and left on the entire time. The results were truly disappointing as I looked like I had thick blocks of orange/yellow streaks through my hair, and even older with the highlights by my ears resembling white hair. The main color looked lighter than what I had walked in with because of the highlights. I was so embarrassed with the pictures, and to this day cannot look at them. I went back the following week to have it fixed, and the 2nd application of the darker color hid some of the hideous highlights but not for long. I had to go to another salon within the same month, and they did their best to correct the issue without damaging my hair. I will never go back to Keith Kristoffer's.

• Cons: Coloring technique/judgment

Amber is the best!!!!

by Elizabeth Luker at Citysearch

I have had my eyebrows waxed and tinted everywhere from Los Angeles to New York to Dallas to London, and trust me when I say no one in any of those cities can compare to Amber at Keith Kristofer Salon. She spends a great deal of time analyzing your skin, hair and the shape of your face before deciding what eyebrow color and shape is right for you. I'm a redhead, so mixing the perfect color combination for my skin and hair can be difficult, but Amber gets it right everytime. Unfortunately, I live in New York, which makes it impossible to see Amber each time I need a touch up. I was recently reminded how amazing she is when I went to have my eyebrows done at Warren Tricomi in the Plaza in New York, and it was a disaster. Even the most upscale salons can't compete with Amber.

If you live in Austin, definitely go see her!!
