carrie - the stylist – Number 1 issue women have is ? Can?t find the perfect Stylist. Carrie is in tune with her intuition with hair, color, and a touch of personality. I went in as an average girl ? came Out looking like I came from a movie set Carrie was a lady version of Edward the Scissor hands. She WENT MAD, I tell you! Hair was flying all kinds of directions in all kinds of angles. All I saw was her chopping hair away. It literally reminded me of the movie Edward the Scissor Hands. SHE ROCKS! My main focus was that I w... read more
Got a gift card for the upper hand and decided to look up the number and came across the reviews. I decided to try Trish because she had the most reviews that were positive. She and her team were so wonderful with talking to me and figuring out what we were doing with my cut and color. This is the best my hair has ever looked. I highly recommended Trish!
If you want a awful haircut, by all means – I am sad to say that I am so disappointed in my haircut. It is awful. I will never ever go there again, and I will say I will never recommend the upper hand to anyone.
YAY, Trish – I decided to see Trish after reading all the great reviews, and I was desperately needed a change. Her assistant took me in and got me prepped for Trish. Trish new exactly what she wanted to do with my color (a new technique she just learned in New York!). My hair cut was a fabulous and chic. I feel like a millon bucks and owe it all too Trish. Her assistant even called me a few days later to see how my NEW look was going or if there was anything I needed. Now thats customer service.
Highly recommended stylist NOT SO GOOD – Wow!! I must say after reading all the great reviews about this place i was soo disapointed! Let me first say that i do not ever post bad reviews because im very easy to please, so do not think this is some bored old lady writing this. I went to a highly recommended sylist on this site and asked her to cut 2 inches off my hair and she cut 5! She was so COCKY and ARROGANT and treated her assistant so poorly infront of me i felt uncomfortable the whole time! I had shoulder length hair a... read more
TRISH LECOURIAS - THANK YOU! – I decided to try Trish because she had great reviews and I wasn?t let down. I didn?t want to lose any of my length but wanted a change. Trish gave me the best long layer haircut. I have movement and all my layers blend (they?re not choppy at all). I walked out looking like I had hair extensions, and it was all mine! I want to wake up and style my hair, I feel like a million bucks. Thank you Trish for standing up too all the raves. You want a change and a good one at that - Trish is your lady!
today i got the best haircut ever. i had an idea of what i wanted but could never get it across to the hairdresser that i have been using for 10 yrs. after a brief discussion about what i thought i wanted and what i didn't want, the wheels in jennifer macaluso's mind began to turn and the hair began to drop. she spent more time with me and perfecting my cut than all the haircuts i have had in the past few years. the end result was just what i wanted. her patience, diligence, and insight are what make her the fabulous stylist... read more
Unforgiving stylist - won't be back – I had been going to Upper hand for about three years..and to one stylist in particular (who shall remain nameless but is raved about on this site) for about one. I have a newborn and live about 30 miles away so i had to arrange for a sitter and carve out a good chunk of time for my appointment for a cut/blowdry. the day of my baby was a bit fussy before i left so i was running about 10 minutes behind. right before my appointment, i called to let the stylist know. much to my shock, i was ... read more
BEST Colorist in Houston! – I am VERY VERY picky about my hair. My hair is natuarally dark, but I like to look like a "natural blonde." To find a colorist that can take dark hair to light without damaging it or making it look orange is a rare thing. For the past 4 years I have used the same person, but recently he moved. After much research and asking several people in the spa business, I was told to go to CARRIE at Upper Hand. She use to work at Beautique, but now works in River Oaks at Upper Hand. Not only did I LOVE my ha... read more
