Hair Solutions

WORST experience of my life! I went in with dirty blonde hair and left with orange hair. I should’ve went with my frst instinct and left immediately. Her station was dirty, the place was like a dungeon, and her hair was a mess. She was completely clueless about bleach, she didn’t even know that bleach can be put on wet hair or that it shouldn’t be slapped all over roots first. Zephra must’ve just got out of school, I don’t know how she even has her license. She wouldn’t give me a refund, she sd she could fix it and she let me leave two days in a row with orange freakin hair. Had to spend ANOTHER $ 160 somewhere else just to fix it. Save your money, go somewhere else… anywhere else!

I went in yesterday to see Delma for a balayage highlight, and I was very impressed. She really took her time and knew what she was doing! I posted the before and after pictures so you can see for yourself. :)

Just wanted to stop and say Zephra (I’m so sorry if I spelled your name wrong) is amazing. She cut my hair in less than 20 minutes. It turned out great!

I would NOT recommend this place. Delma completely fried & ruined my hair. I have long pretty brown hair & she coated it in bleach making it bright yellow. My hair was falling out in clumps & I was mortified. I now have to start the long process to getting it back to my normal color. I had to chop my hair off & spend $ 400 to make it somewhat acceptable. I am sick to my stomach that this happened. Save yourself & do not go here. I also posted pictures so feel free to see for yourself.

Had my second visit to Hair Solutions, and Delma again was my stylist. She did not disappoint! I told her to do whatever, that I trusted her. The cut is perfect and I needed my highlights freshened. She did the usual thing with the foil and coloring paste and let it rest for about 10 minutes tops before she took out the foil and washed my hair. The color is PERFECT. My old stylist in Houston used to make me sit under a hot hair dryer for at least 20 minutes before she washed out the solution. I didn’t have to do that with Delma and my hair came out beautifully and wasn’t nearly as miserable as it was sitting under that hot dryer!

I’ve been going to Veronica for over a year now and feel I can really trust her with my hair! I’ve had tons of bad experiences with other salons and hairstylists, from getting home to find my hair unintentionally uneven and having colorists use the wrong kind of color on my hair, leaving it looking greenish and unnatural. I never have to worry about that with Veronica! I’ve had her color my hair, cut it, and style it, and she does a great job at all three of these. She’s done all over color (to fix what my previous colorist had done), highlights and low lights in the time I’ve been going to her. She does evenings and weekends, which works with my busy schedule too! Schedule all of your hair needs with Veronica! You won’t be disappointed!

Just went in there today, they are really nice but my hairstylist was 45 minutes late and rushed through my cut in 5 minutes and didn’t finish blow drying my hair cause she was backed up yet I still have to pay $ 25 (which is suppose to include a wash, cut and style). Not going back.

I always get my hair done at a salon in San Antonio, but figured I’d try some place new. I wish I didn’t. This was probably one of the worst salons I have ever been to. My stylist was nice and everything, just very disappointed with the effort. I walked in and wanted to go a lighter blonde. All she did was put bleach in my roots (which she took out early). There appeared to be no change and she didn’t even dry my hair before I left. No effort whatsoever. I’m never straying from my salon again.

Delma is absolutely the best! Delma has been my hair stylist for both color and cut since I was in 6^th grade (which has been almost 18 years oh my gosh). Thank goodness she moved to the hill country from Dallas because no one compares. My mom, 2 sisters, and uncle have also had Delma as their stylist and she’s become apart of our inner circle. Delma not only takes the time to listen to what you want, but she can do a wide breadth of styles/​color no matter what your looking for. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Delma– she’s exceptional at her craft and a lovely human being… both inside and out!

I love going to see Veronica at Hair Solutions! After years of stressful haircuts that leave my hair yellow or stringy, I can relax knowing I’ll end up looking just like I’d like to… Even if I don’t communicate in perfect hairstylist language. I came to Veronica after just such a disaster where a pushy hairstylist somehow talked me into bleaching all of my hair rather than lightly highlighting it. She replaced depth with a color that matched my natural color and added cool highlights to balance the crayon color the other guy left me with. Just in time for my sisters wedding! I’ve been going to her now for over a year and her instincts about both styles and colors that are right for me are consistently spot on. She’s experiences with my wavy, thick hair type that I like to style both straight and curly. Truly, she’s a gem and I’ve sent numerous friends to her who won’t fonts anyone else now either. Definitely try her out!

I told delma I didn’t want bangs that went straight across. She confirmed by saying more round. She cut them pretty straight. With that said, I’m pretty confident that if I showed up with a pic, she’d understand a bit better. I don’t like looking half my age, since I’m only 24 as it is, but I will be going back. Just with a picture this time!

Zephra was freaking amazing! went in to get my hair colored from blonde to brunette and she gave me the color i wanted spot on! i recommend her and this place if you are looking for quality service and a good price! Thank you Zephra for an awesome experience and you’re amazing and so unique!

Delma Castillo is a wonderful stylist and really takes the time to get to know her clients, their hair, and styles that will best compliment their look. I was fortunate enough to see Delma over the last 3 yrs before she and her family relocated to San Marcos, TX. Filling her shoes has not been an easy task! She provides excellent service, recommendations, is really genuine and reasonably priced. Highly recommend!

Don’t judge a book by its cover! The building itself might not impress you but the service in there is wonderful! I got a cut and color yesterday from Zephra and absolutely love it. I came in with a very vague idea and she gave me exactly what I didn’t know I wanted. :D haha She worked fast but didn’t rush and was great to chat with. And the price made me very happy! Couldn’t be more pleased with my experience here. Ask for Zephra!

I went to hair solutions and couldn’t be happier with the results
I’m from Houston, tx and usually go back pretty often to visit family and get my hair cut, but I was tired of always making that drive and desperately needed a hair cut so I decided to give this place a try and I wasn’t disappointed they did an excellent job and will continue to use them the rest of my time here in san Marcos

Sharon is always a pleasure. Excellent service.

I went to Sharron too today and she is fantastic! She did such a great job! I went in with a general and really unorganized explanation of what I wanted and she transformed it into something great. I just found my new hair stylist!

Being new to San Marcos and all I was not sure where to go for a haircut. My roommate recommended some place of North LBJ, so I drove by it and did not find it impressive enough for me to go in. I decided to check out Unilocal to find a place, and saw this place with a high rating.
The building reminded me of the places (restaurants, hair cutteries, bars, pool halls, etc.) in Austin that aren’t extremely beautiful on the outside, but offer great services to their customers. Being somewhat of an Austinite, I *had* to check it out. It has been a good four to five months since my last hair cut and changes like hair stylists frightens me.
Upon arriving, the place wasn’t as bad-​looking (not that it looked terrible) as the picture portrayed here. I was a little early for my appointment to make sure I could find it. I found it and was a little confused about the parking lot. It was a little bit small, but seemed spaced out enough so you had plenty of room to get out if you are next to another vehicle. I made the appointment the day before, so I expected to wait just a little bit. I decided that waiting in my truck was not really an option so I moseyed myself inside with nervousness growing. I enter the black door, a door that could always mean something scary could lurk behind it. I was greeted by a very nice man, who then assisted to me to where my hair stylist was located and where I could sit to wait for her. There was not really a waiting room like I expected, so I told to sit where in the chair for the hooded hair dryers. I felt like I was supposed to be getting my dyed as well by sitting in that chair.
The «waiting room» was really clean and you could hear music playing from whatever location the radio was. It wasn’t turned up enough so that the music was distorted. The girl before me finished, and I am up to bat! Oh God, help! Here it comes! I was introduced to my hair stylist, Sharron.
We wet straight to business about what I wanted done with my hair. She made everything I said sound unbelievably simple. After a nice shampoo-​ing she was off to style my hair like no ones business. She talked to me about her life and asked about mine. She made me feel a little more at ease with this whole transitioning to a new hair stylist. While cutting my hair, she then told me that I probably I was most likely of German descent by the body and texture of my hair. Oh yeah? Well damn, she was right. Sharron is definitely a hair expert, in my opinion for knowing that. She shampoo-​ed me again after finishing my haircut to wash the loose hairs. Then, she trimmed my sideburns up a little bit. Wow! I definitely could go for this again, and again. To top it all off, she only charged me $ 15. I have paid at least double that for a haircut and was completely unhappy with everything about the experience.
I definitely will start recommending her, if not this whole place to all my friend who need their haircut in San Marcos. As well as let Unilocalers know!

I’m new in town, and I hit the jackpot on my first haircut today with Ronnie at Hair Solutions. He is the owner, a super nice guy, and a true pro (30+ years) with men’s cuts. I gave him some vague instructions and he has that rare gift of just being able to make my hair look right.
The cut, 2 shampoos and styling were all just 15 bucks. Great value and a better cut than I’ve gotten for twice the price elsewhere.
Can’t recommend Ronnie enough. A+

I continue to make Hair Solutions my regular stop for ear-​lowering and general griping about The State of Things.
Recently, Ronnie and I became immersed in a discussion about taxes, government shutdowns, and more. While he did a great job on my hair, it was longer than we usually cut it. Neither of us noticed because of the conversation we were having. (Instead of mowing down the maximum, Ronnie’s always conservative with how much hair he removes so as to avoid customer freak-​outs. A wise policy… but it means that if you want it shorter once he’s done, you merely need to let him know and he’ll get back to snippin.’)
Two days after my most recent cut, I called Ronnie and booked a follow-​up trim. But instead of a quick clip, he gave me an entirely new haircut, complete with shampoo, neck shave and rinse, and refused any payment, even a tip.
I fail to see why anyone would go anywhere else.
FIVE PLUS STARS. Fin.
