Start Fresh with Our New Guest Reset

Q: What is included in the New Guest service?

The New Guest package includes the Awaken Mineral Detox treatment followed by a professional haircut. We remove mineral buildup, restore hair balance, and shape a tailored cut. Consultation and at-home care recommendations are included to support lasting results.

Q: How long does the Awaken Mineral Detox & Cut take?

Expect about 90 to 120 minutes depending on hair length and complexity. Detox processing, thorough consultation, and precision cutting take time to ensure optimal results. We'll give an estimated appointment length when you book.

Q: Is the detox treatment safe for colored hair?

Yes. Our mineral detox is formulated to safely remove mineral buildup without stripping professional color when performed by our trained stylists. We assess your hair history first and adjust products and timing to protect color integrity while improving hair health.

Q: Will the detox affect my natural hair texture?

The detox removes residues that weigh hair down, often restoring natural bounce and texture. It won’t chemically alter your curl or pattern. If you have specific texture concerns, your stylist will tailor the process to preserve and enhance your natural hair.

Q: How should I prepare for my New Guest appointment?

Arrive with dry hair free of heavy styling products if possible. Bring a list of recent color or chemical services and any photos of desired styles. Plan for a slightly longer initial appointment so we can fully assess and customize your service.

Q: Do you offer follow-up or maintenance recommendations for New Guests?

Yes. After your service we provide a personalized maintenance plan including product suggestions, styling tips, and recommended revisit timelines. We can schedule follow-up appointments or color services and are available for questions to ensure your detox and cut benefits last longer.

A welcome treatment designed specifically for first-time guests who want a full reset before settling into a regular haircare routine at the salon. It pairs a thorough mineral-detoxifying treatment with a cut, so clients leave with both healthier-feeling hair and a fresh shape in one visit. This is the entry point for anyone new to the salon who wants to start with a clean slate rather than jumping straight into a standard service.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I honestly cannot say enough good things about my experience at Awaken! 🥹 I have been to SO many different salons over the years, both expensive and inexpensive, and it has been incredibly difficult to find someone who truly understands what I want and can actually get it right.

I originally had an appointment somewhere else yesterday that fell through, so I called Awaken and Bennu, the owner, actually squeezed me in AFTER HOURS when they were normally closed. That alone meant so much to me! 🩷

From the moment I walked in, Bennu was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He took his time, listened to exactly what I wanted, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. We had so much in common that we talked the entire time, and it honestly felt so comfortable and natural.

And the haircut itself? The best haircut I have had in YEARS. 😭🙌🏼 I walked out genuinely happy with my hair and finally felt like someone actually understood what I was asking for.

Finding someone who is talented, takes pride in what they do, listens to their clients, and makes you feel comfortable is not easy. I am SO happy I found Awaken and Bennu! 🥹🩷

If you are in Bastrop or the surrounding area and looking for someone who truly knows what they are doing, I cannot recommend Bennu and Awaken enough! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️...more

Christopher is just amazing at what he does!!! The most honest, humble and patience person I've have ever met and I’m just forever grateful for meeting Christopher!
Being a deaf client of his, this is the most amazing experience I have ever had! The communication is so clear whereas I struggled with the past salons I've been to. He listened to every concerns I had and he addressed what needs to be done! So if you get a chance to go, you will not be disappointed and leaving there feeling beautiful! This is the most inclusive place I’ve ever been too!...more

Loved the chill space, felt very down to earth and relaxing. My haircut by Rachel was amazing, she really understood my hair and she gave me a very precise cut that left me with bouncy hair. The shampoo wash with scalp massage was my favorite. Loved it!...more

I always have the best experience when i go to Awaken! My most recent appointment i went all out and we dyed my hair 2 tones pink and red and im so in love!!!! My hair still feels shiny soft and fresh even after being lightened in the fronts, no damage!! It’s been 2 weeks and my pink color is still vibrant and going strong!
Besides their amazing skill sets and ability to use safe healthy hair care products, you also get to know some amazing down to earth people that love to care!
PLUS The head massages and sound bowl healing during the deep conditioning will leave you so calm.
I’m so glad I finally found a salon i feel comfortable and relaxed in with people who provide so much positivity!

I could go on and on and on so you should go find out for yourself!! <3
Book the appointment, you’ll have no regrets!!...more

Best hair appointment since I moved from Houston! I have yet to find an hair stylist I can trust…until I met Chris. The whole experience is top tier. He is personable, kind, and communicative. He takes the time to make sure you have an excellent experience from the moment you step in the salon. On my second visit I decided to chop off what felt like 10 inches and I absolutely love it! Chris is truly an artist and has the ability to connect to a clients energy so they leave happy, refreshed, and better version of themselves.

Also, definitely do the hair detox when getting your hair washed. My crown chakra felt so cleansed and I was beaming :)
Thank you Chris and your team! Your have such a gem in Bastrop and I’ll keep visiting you from ATX...more
