This holiday season, skip the panic buying. We’ve done the hard part for you.

At Ruiz Salon in Austin, our gift guide features handpicked jewelry, limited-edition Aveda collections, Apotheke candles, and salon experiences that go beyond the surface. Each gift reflects what we’re known for: precision, artistry, and an eye for what makes someone feel extraordinary.

Why Shop Here

Our team has been featured in Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar. We’ve won North American Hairstylist of the Year. We teach master classes globally. But here’s what matters for holiday shopping: we know how to make people feel seen.

Every gift in this guide was chosen because it does one of three things—it transforms a daily ritual, makes a statement, or creates a moment of genuine luxury.

What We Offer

Salon Gift Cards
Redeemable for precision cuts, custom color, restorative treatments, or Aveda products. It’s the gift of walking out feeling like the best version of yourself.

Boutique Jewelry
Fashion-forward pieces that elevate any look. These aren’t throwaway accessories—they’re conversation starters.

Aveda Holiday Sets
Plant-powered formulas for hydration, repair, and radiance. Beautifully packaged, genuinely effective, and suitable for every hair type.

Apotheke Candles
Premium fragrances that turn any room into a sanctuary. Because ambiance matters.

Gift With Intention

The best gifts pair purpose with beauty. Try these combinations:

  • For the overworked friend: Aveda stress-relief ritual set + a 90-minute salon treatment
  • For the style enthusiast: Statement necklace + precision cut gift card
  • For the minimalist: Apotheke candle + scalp treatment session
  • For yourself: Everything above. You’ve earned it.

Each pairing reflects our values: creativity, quality, and evolution. When you give Ruiz, you’re supporting a salon that shapes industry trends—not just follows them.
