How we made this list

We looked at 14 salons in South Congress, Austin TX with a Google rating of 4.0 or higher and at least 20 reviews, then Google category “Hair salon”, ranked by weighted rating. A rating from thousands of reviews counts for more than the same rating from a handful, so a new place with a few perfect scores does not jump the queue.
