About

Mood Hair Studio is a small, private suite inside the larger Shine on 41st salon space on West 41st Street in Austin. Owner and stylist Haley Simpson runs the studio, which is built around a natural, holistic view of hair care, with scalp health at the center.

The salon describes itself as not a typical salon. It says it does not push products or work with large brand deals, and it chooses color and styling products for their sourcing and ingredients.

Services fall into three groups: color, cuts and treatments. Most color services can be booked with a haircut added, and every service includes a relaxing head massage, a toner where needed, and a blow dry and style. Appointments run from about 2 to 4.5 hours, and the exact timing is listed on the Vagaro booking page. Prices can shift with the amount of color used and the length of hair.

Before booking, clients can request a complimentary consultation, in person or online, to plan the service, timing and cost. Clients who want to work during their appointment can use free Wi-Fi and a private space, and complimentary drinks, snacks and robes are offered. Free parking surrounds the building.

A natural, holistic approach to hair care and beauty that puts scalp health first, using products the salon describes as responsibly sourced and low-toxic.

A small private suite on the first floor of a larger salon space, set up so clients can relax or work during their visit.
