Lovvve it! – I love this place! I have never had a better experience in a salon. Jinny gave me beautiful highlights and a sexy haircut. She was soo sweet and personable, it made my time at Alante very relaxing. I would recommend Jinny to any woman looking for a great hair services. The salon itself is cozy, friendly and the perfect place to people watch while your getting your hair done! :)

Great Haircut and Price; Friendly, Attentive Owner/Stylist – Before coming to Alante I tried to get my hair cut by a different shop/salon each time and eventually began to cut my own hair because I was never satisfied by the quality of the haircut for the price from Great Clips, Super Cuts, and Fantastic Sam's *shudder* When I finally discovered Alante, not only was I pleased with the cut but I was pleased to leave a tip as well. Young (the owner) listens attentively to what style you want and gives you what you ask for. In ... read more

One of the best haircuts Ive had in the AUS!! – Alante is a great place to go if you are looking for a clean, friendly and professional salon. Young who is the owner has been doing hair for a long time and her experience shows when getting your hair done. Also, stop in and get your eyebrows wax she is AWESOME!!. My roommate and I go to her specifically each time because in the past I have gone to Supercuts (they suck), Wootens barber (you wait too long!!) and the other salon near Hole in the wall (not a good experience!!). S... read more

This was a nice salon and now it is a chop shop!! – I graduated UT in 2007 and loved to go to Alante. When I started going Dave was the head stylist and did a great job. It changed owners and Cat cut my hair till I graduated and always did a great job. I was recently in Austin and stopped in for a cut and was surprised to see the prices were much lower and Cat was gone. I got my hair cut anyway and what a mistake!!! The lady was in a hurry and butchered my hair. My three year old boy could have done what she did. I left and ... read more

Great lady. Great cuts. Great prices. – Ive tried a few salons on the drag, and this one is by far my favorite. The lady takes her time (unlike many others) to be sure she does the best job possible. She's very friendly, truly appreciates her customers, and has very decent prices (16$ for men). Highly recommend. Make sure you leave a tip: she totally deserves it.

Great Haircut, Great Price – Young (the new owner) is terrific! She understands what is in style and takes into account your own style. My hair is very thick and difficult to cut but she handles it with ease. I can't speak for ladies, but the men's cuts are the best deal in town. The price is only a few extra dollars than pro cuts but you can most definitely tell the difference in quality. She will pay close attention to detail and ensure that your hair is cut cleanly (come here before an interview/date).

Seriously honest opinion – So... I took the reviews on here with a grain of salt. I thought, the person who was like "she doesn't speak English rawrawrawr" was just being ignorant. I thought she understood English perfectly. Yes, she has an accent and doesn't speak necessarily in proper English, but she's not dumb. The lady does however not cut your hair the way you ask for it exactly. I told her a length, and she cut it's a good inch and a half probably shorter than I expected it to be. She showed me a picture of Nicole Ric... read more

Wonderful Experience for a Wonderful Price – As an employee at UT for many years I have had a myriad of experiences at the Alante salon as it is so close to campus. The current owner is talented, professional, and competitively priced - actually cheaper than others and she is better at styling hair. The salon is clean and comfortable. Young takes time to listen to the client, and uses color and cut to enhance the individual's appearance. She can do edgy or traditional looks - men and women. She is great!!! Give her talent a ... read more

What an improvement! – I think all that can be said about how Alante was before the owner switch has been said, but let me say, the new change is a welcomed one and a definite upgrade. I went back to Alante after vowing to never go back after I had a baaad haircut, and I was pleasantly surprised about how incredibly nice and polite the new owner is! She definitely knows how to style and cut hair, and even though my hair was just a bit too short for the new style I wanted, she was able to work with what I had and make it look... read more
