perfect salon! – I have gone to the The Upper Hand for two years now. What brought me to this salon oringinally was when I followed Carrie from another salon to this one. The Upper Hand is amazingly clean, modern, and inviting. I HIGHLY recommend Carrie for coloring. She has always listened to exactly what I want, adding her own professional touch. She has not only colored my hair from red to platinum blonde, but I had no awkward "inbetween" orange or brassy tones. I will not trust my hair with anyone but her, simply because... read more
Terrible Experience – I just spent a small fortune ($250) on a cut and color by Trish and her colorist Jess. I brought in several photos of the color that I wanted and discussed them with Trish before she began. She explained that she would go darker, but that within a week my hair would lighten up to the color that I wanted. This sounded strange to me but she assured me to trust her. It has now been one week and the color is still much too dark and looks nothing like the photos I brought in. I have called the salon everyday... read more
Awesome Salon ! – I just moved back from Dallas. I was able to find this salon. I was looking for a new hairdresser. I am Blonde and very picky when it comes to highlight's. Sarah's first time doing my hair did a perfect job. She also gets very close to roots. She listened to my request & my color turned out just like I wanted. I would recommend Sarah. The front desk personnel are great too! They were able to work me in on short notice. I give this salon 5 star easy!
TERRIBLE!!!! – I always read the google reviews before trying out a new place. The reviews for this place were pretty good, so I decided to go for a haircut. BIG MISTAKE! I don't know who wrote the reviews, or if they were in their right minds, because they TOTALLY BOTCHED MY HAIR!!!! All I asked for was a trim, but what I ended up getting was a a weird haircut that falls above my shoulders. I specifically asked for a TINY TRIM because of my upcoming honeymoon (I wanted to keep my hair long for it). The lady who cut my hair ... read more

Ashley is the best Hair Color Specialist I have ever had! – Ashley ( the smashing red head) is amazing! I just moved to Houston 5 months ago. I needed to find a hair dresser that could make my hair a beautiful blonde again! I have gone to 4 other salons looking for someone to make me beautiful again! I had so many huge disappointments in the past year that I was getting very frustrated! I found the Upper Hand Salon through the web and knew I had found what I was looking for. The receptionist set me up with Ashley Schouweiler... read more
The best hair designer I have ever used! – A completely relaxing environment, very good customer service and Sarah Lindsey is the best and most concentrated hair stylist I have ever had do my hair. I changed my entire look and it came out better than I would have ever expected with the help of her input.
Sarah is the best! – I have crazy half wavy, partially straight, curly when it wants to be hair and have never found anyone who can incorporate all of this into one style until now. Sarah at Upper Hand rocks my world! The style she gave me lets me go curly when I want and still looks great when blown straight.
