Great hair cuts without an appointment at half the price of the JCPenney Salon

by LesliePerez at Citysearch

I was going to the Lakeline mall JCPenney Salon for 8 years where I received great haircuts, however it was becomming increasingly expensive and I was always waiting for at least 30 minutes even though I had an appointment. I decided to try Modern Hair Salon because it was highly recommend to me by a friend. I received the same great hair cut at half the price and without the hassle of setting appointments on limited days to see my hair stylist. I just come in when it is convenient for me and the wait is minimal, in fact much less than when I was setting appointments at JC Penney. Lynn does a great job of cutting hair the way you like it.

The Best Haircuts in Leander/Cedar Park

by LisaFerguson at Citysearch

I can't imagine that one reviewer going into the same salon that I have been going into for the past several months. I have tried several other stylists in the past several years, at times resorting to just cutting my own hair and my kids, because I thought there wasn't an adequate stylist in my price range. The first time I went into Modern Hair Salon it was 20 minutes past closing and I offered to come back the next day, but Lynn sat me down and in 10 minutes I had the best haircut I'd had in years! The next day I brought my daughter in --- my teenage daughter that hated to get her haircut anywhere because it's so thick and curly, I would inevitably have to "fix" it once we were home. Now, my daughter won't go anywhere else. She and my teenage son and my husband have also gotten their hair cut before by Vuilma (I think that's her name.... can't remember now, but she's very sweet), and any of us have yet to be disappointed.

These women are very friendly, very professional, and the salon is nothing like the one "horrendous" patron described. The only explanation I can think of is that that person went to another salon and mistakenly thought the name was Modern Hair Salon, or it's a rival stylist in another salon.

I have recommended them to friends and family, and if Lynn ever moves we will follow her!

Great pricing---Quick & Friendly

by texaspaula at Citysearch

I read the previous review and wonder if this is the actual salon that person had visited. I've been here at least 9 times and would be more often but I'm out of town a lot. I've been coming here for the last 3 years.

One of the reasons I like it is the salon's color scheme of goldenrod/yellow which makes for a very cheery atmosphere. Lynn is the lady who usually greets me when I come in---always friendly, talkative, and personable. If I have to wait at all, it's usually quite quick.

As mentioned before, I've been here on several occasions and have never seen anyone with their midriff's exposed. The stylists are usually wearing aprons so where the midriff comes into play, I don't know.

I like the fact that they have a "frequent flier card/program" for haircuts. Modern Hair Salon is professional, kept clean, friendly, services are fairly fast, and the pricing is very reasonable compared to most salons. I am usually in for highlighting & haircut and hate nothing more than being in a stylist's chair for 2-3 hours for that service.) At MHS (Modern Hair Salon), it's always under an hour & a half at most--so I have time to do other things during my day--my time isn't wasted.

To me, for the fees and services rendered, it's a pleasant experience all around. I would recommend this salon to my friends.

• Pros: Nice neighborhood
