Josephine... The best kept secret in Houston!! – Josephine, Josephine, Josephine! That is the name I give my friends when they ask me who does my hair!! I had just gotten the worst color and cut of my life when I saw one of my friends and her hair looked great, she mentioned Josephine does her hair. When I saw Josephine we talked about my hair for a good 20 mins before she layed her hands on it (I was very scared to do something else to it), then she worked her majic and fixed both my color and cut! I highly recommend her, s... read more
The Award for the BEST HAIRDRESSER IN HOUSTON goes to..................John Rubio!!! – I have been living in Houston for now 6months after moving from Australia. I never thought finding a good hairdresser could be so hard here.....guess what it is!! After a few "ordinary" experiences I found John Rubio, he is extraordinary!! My hair is in better health than it has ever been, my blonde highlights last sooo much longer and I don't get that "brassie blonde" look after 4 weeks. The compliments keep rolling in weeks after John do... read more
John Rubio-Best Haircut & Color EVER – I heard about John from a friend, that said "John Rubio is the hottest thing in houston right now!" So I had to go see for myself. I had been growing my hair out and was just kind of bored with it. I brought in a few pictures and told him I wanted something totally new, but I wasn't sure I could pull off the look I was going for. He did warn me that what I wanted was significantly shorter, but he thought it would look great. I took a deep breath and said OKAY! I get so many compliments ... read more
Can you say REGRET! – I went to UpperHand because of all the good reviews...and...I went to the hairdresser that has been named the most. I took in a couple pictures showing exactly what I wanted. I received NOTHING...I repeat...NOTHING...like what I asked for! In fact, it's so short that I can't do anything with it, let alone what I described what I wanted to do in the first place. I went over this at least 4 times with this hairdresser about what I wanted. She obviously didn't hear a word I said and after the first cut, it... read more
Trish is the Best Hairdresser Ever!!!! – If you're looking for a hairdresser to trust with your hair/style Trish is your girl!!! I have been seeing Trish for 4 years now and I will never ever let any other hairdresser touch it! I am the type of person who is very concious and well, attached to her hair but I would let Trish cut my hair in my sleep! I recently cut 9-10 inches off my long hair that I've had the better part of my life, and I wouldn't let anyone but Trish do it. I love my new hair style, just like every other ti... read more
Ditto! Trish is the Best! – Trish knows short hair!...she has great suggestions for creative changes to keep my cuts edgy without being too funky for the office. Trish and Emily make super therapists, too. The salon has a great ambiance that's inviting and comfortable.
TRISH! – So I decided to see Trish because i have been jumping around from stylist to stylist and never was happy. Thank god i saw the reviews on citysearch and got her name. She is so talented and i feel like a million bucks. I have never left with a cut I couldn't style and my color always look fabulous. Thank you citysearch for helping me find such a wonderful hairdresser.
Great spa experience – The Upper Hand Salon is a fabulous place to talk to interesting people, relax and get a real "spa" experience. The technicians are talented, forward-thinking and just a lot of fun to be around. I always feel like a million bucks when I leave!
For stylish, never – The customer service - and results - at The Upper Hand Salon couldn't be better. From the time that Elizabeth takes your call to schedule, to the time you walk out with fabulous hair , you are treated well and with a friendly respect. Jennifer cuts and colors and Lisa does my regular blowouts (Lisa is also a skilled makeup artist). I get compliments on my "pantene hair" all the time; and this is the woman who has naturally curly (read frizzy in the summer in Houston) - they do a great job and do with wit... read more
