Salon Volt

This place is big, clean, and wonderful! Not only was it my first time at Salon Volt, it was basically my first time getting anything done to my hair professionally at a real salon… and my experience was AWESOME.
The service is impeccable. Right when you enter, you get offered coffee or water.
Laura did my hair. I requested a balayage. Laura is a TROOPER. The whole process was 4 hours and she was there doing it the entire time while I just sat there in my comfy chair… I really liked Laura because she doesn’t force small talk on you. I am not good with conversations so we kind of did our own thing (my own thing as in, staring at my hair and playing on my phone lol). But Laura was extremely nice; it wasn’t awkward, and she knew what I wanted and what I didn’t right from the get go. She didn’t even look down on me when I said I used box dye before.
Thank you Laura!!! You were seriously the best. I love my hair!!! I’m sure Laura and the rest of the staff are all extremely detail-​oriented and patient, awesome qualities of amazing hair stylists!
If this is your first Unilocal check-​in, you get 10% off! I saved a good amount and used it on some quality shampoos!

I had a small waiting period, after my appointment began. The odd thing was, the floor was semi-​empty. The stylist Amber, was very straight to the point– get in and get out, no conversation, or smile. She seemed very cold. I do not think that is appropriate, when your in customer service. The service she provided not to the standard of these reviews. None of my layers got blended, which in my opinion equals laziness! I had to wash my hair later that evening, because a gooey hair product was left in my hair, which made my scalp itch. I asked for an additional eyebrow service and was politely turned down. At least the price was fair, the salon was clean (except her chair had hair on it from a prior appointment), and the location was easy to find.
I came here, because of the Unilocal reviews but i will not be back!

Jordan did an AMAZING job on my hair! I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted, and she took her time to cut and style it PERFECTLY! My hair hasn’t looked this good in years, and I’m so pleased! This will be my go-​to salon from now on

I actually found this salon on Unilocal and being from out of state, I was in need. My stylist is Valerie and she is great! She’s very open to any ideas I’ve had with my hair and she won’t let you leave her chair until you are 100% satisfied. All the girls are very friendly, it’s very clean and a great place to try!

My first time there and it was an amazing experience. Valarie did my hair and it came out so wonderful! I will definitely be back!

Brittini is simply amazing! For the best in men’s grooming services you simply won’t do better than Brittini!

Second time at Volt, and added color to my hair. She took the time to explain why she was using a certain type of coloring due to my hair type. My color looks very soft and very natural. I am so pleased. Thank you Laura.

Just had my hair cut by Brittani — she was so sweet and did an amazing job. I am new to San Antonio, and will definitely be going back in the future!

I moved to Texas from Seattle six months ago and I’ve been putting off getting my hair done since it’s always tough to find a new «person», but it was getting out of control so I Googled and Unilocal’ed for a good salon as I was getting tired of long unruly hair and my color needed significant work. I saw Laura at Salon Volt and she totally overhauled my hair for the better. It took more than three hours because I’d done so much damage with box color and needed foils and toner on my super thick hair, but the end results were exactly what I was looking for and the cut was great too. I’ll definitely be back.

Recently moved to San Antonio/​Schertz from Ohio and had been searching for a salon. I found Salon Volt and the reviews told me that I had found a gem. Salon Volt also had a promotion going on at
for a $ 50 gift voucher for $ 25. I was sold. My appointment was with Laura and I couldn’t be happier! I explained what I was looking for and she delivered 110%. She was very open and easy to talk with during my appointment and also explained very well when I asked about Olaplex and further treating my hair. You cannot go wrong visiting this salon! This is a must go-​to salon if you live in San Antonio.

I came in to see Amber, and true to her reviews, she did an amazing job.
My hair matched the picture I brought in perfectly!
After 3 years, no more salon hopping. Sticking with Salon Volt!

Never ever does my hair turn out IDENTICAL to the picture I bring in but this time it did! Jordan made my hair EXACTLY what I envisioned! She took her time and asked a bunch of questions about how I normally do my hair so she could make my cut/​shape work best for me and then the highlights she did were spectacular! I’ve had «balayage» highlights before that were just stripey and not natural-​looking at all so I was hesitant to try them again. She made the highlights just blend seamlessly into my hair like I was born with them! I can’t wait to keep having hair adventures here at this salon. I have total trust in the work they do here. Bonus: they offer you coffee as soon as you walk in!

I’ve lived in San Antonio for three years and while I’ve had my hair cut numerous times, I’ve never felt compelled to go back to the same salon. I’ve basically been searching for a stylist who will listen to me and offer advice about how I should cut and care for my hair. I definitely have found my stylist at Salon Volt. I made an appointment to get a hair cut here because of the positive reviews and its location down the street from me. They were able to fit me in the same day. The salon was clean and all of the stylists were polite. Valerie took care of me, and she made my hair look excellent. I was so surprised when the price of my wash, cut and style came out to only $ 35! I was expecting to pay $ 50-​$ 60. I am definitely going back for my next haircut.

I am pleased to recommend Salon Volt and their staff! Six years ago I met Amber and I have been her client ever since. In fact I drive 90 miles each way for my monthly appointments, they are that good! The staff listens to your ideas and they have the knowledge and training to bring your vision to reality. They are friendly, warm, inviting, and genuinely appreciative of their clients. Thank you Amber and your staff — wish you continued success.

I continue to be a client with Amber. Love the new décor of the shop and it’s always great to catch up with Amber. Always the consummate professional, she takes the time to make sure you understand what she’s going to do before the shears touch your hair. I went in with pictures this time and her suggestions on keeping the cut a bit longer than the picture were given with fact and her knowledge of how much jump my curly hair has and would make the cut shorter after it was styled and dry. I love that she embraces my curls as much as I do and rather than trying to flat iron them away as many other stylist have done in the past. If you’re a curly girl, Amber’s the stylist for you!

I walked into this place with long stringy hair and I came out with straight soft hair! I personally felt comfortable and not intimidated by coming here and not knowing anything about the Brazilian blowout. Good place, all the stylists were nice, highly recommended! This is honestly the best salon experience I’ve ever had, no regets or what ifs, I just felt lucky.

Read all the reviews to this place and decided to try it out. I’m really picky when it comes to my hair & Valerie did such a good job on my hair. I love it and I couldn’t have asked for a better stylist. Thank you again Valerie and will definitely be coming back.

I have been going to Salon Volt since Amber opened the shop. I’ve had my hair cut and styled by Ms. Amber the Lady herself, Laura, and Jordan. They’ve washed, cut, colored, and styled my hair.
Important to note is that my hair is rather intense– it’s ridiculously thick, and there is a ton of it– left to its own devices I look like a hungover banshee that just stuck a fork in a light socket! What I’m trying to get across is that my hair is difficult and that I trust these ladies entirely.
The cuts are flawless, the color perfect, and the conversation unbeatable. These immensely talented women take my wild, frizzy, knotted mane and through an awe inspiring work of patience and determination transform it into a smooth, silky, waterfall of black curls. There is surely magic in their fingers.
If– and that is a gargantuan if– in some incredibly unlikely scenario you find yourself less than incandescently happy at the end of your appointment, the ladies will bend over backwards to ensure that you leave their shop with a smile on your face.
Going to Salon Volt is not just a great experience for my hair, but also for my spirit as well. I know it sounds sappy, but I always feel a thousand time better after spending time with these incredible ladies. They are my defacto therapists, my confessors, my life coaches, and personal comedians.
As I always say– do not just listen to me. Go see why Salon Volt and her staff can inspire such a soliloquy– I only hope I did them and their work justice.

Guess I got stuck with a bad stylist! All the reviews scream 5 stars… but I left with a –2 star crooked and poorly done haircut. Won’t be coming back and certainly telling everyone to run away. I guess if you get Amber you are in luck? Anyone else and you may as well take kitchen shears to your hair.
I am mad I even paid for my terrible/​crooked cut and not what I wanted cut. But, even bad hairdressers gotta eat I guess. I went to a different salon on Sat who confirmed the overall lack of skill that went into the cut I received and fixed it for me for cheap (it was that tragic). The overall cut I got from volt was crooked, lazy, and unfinished. Nothing like I asked for. Thankfully, the girl who fixed it for me gave me exactly the cut I asked for… no excuses.
It is too bad too, the shop is cute and close. I felt like there was a little deception on my stylists part, and although I asked for a difficult haircut, she should’ve admitted to not having ADEQUATE skills to do it prior to picking up the scissors.
Too bad I won’t be back am making sure all my friends stay away!

Amber, Amber, Amber!!! Amber did my Brazilian Blowout last week and she did a phenomenal job! I took advantage of their email «flash sale» and boy was it worth it, saved me $ 25! The process was pleasant and I never got a whiff of the chemical. I will be returning in 3 months to get my blowout again!!!
