Uncle Funky's Daughter is the one – Two words to explain my hair if nothing or the wrong product is in it: Diana Ross. I got tired of neglecting my hair and my hair got tired of the neglect, so I decided to Google natural hair salons. Uncle Funky's Daughter was the second salon I came across and was the first to explore. The reviews were helpful and I was in dyer need of professional help. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and I always appreciate that. All questions were answered about my hair and I've enjoyed every produ... read more

Bad Karma and customer service – I am a 50 yr old woman who have had natural hair for 5 years now. When I walked into UFD I felt welcomed by the young man up front. I was informed I had to pay in cash upfront for my service and I did not mind. I will pay for good service and love supporting our young businesses. On the day of my appt I arrived 10 minutes early to find the shop still closed. I waited for approx. 20 minutes and the owners finally arrived. First mistake making an early appt. Then the attitude was as if I did so... read more

Spreading the Word about My New Funky Love – A lady walked up to me in HEB and asked me which products I was using on my hair. It caught me off guard at first, but as I diverted my attention from the fresh broccoli, I turned to see a sister with a lion's mane worth of curly hair. All I could say was, wow, I should be asking you! She told me, she gets her hair done at Uncle Funky's Daughter and that she uses their products Good Hair and Supercurl. My attention totally away from dinner now, I thank my lioness angel and made a ... read more

Don't believe the hype – UFD is not a sanctuary at all. The negative things people say here are true. I went to UFD despite a recommendation NOT to go. What can I say? I have natural hair (I'm Black) and there aren't that many "true natural" options in Houston. Paying up front in FULL for your hair services becuase it guarantees that time slot ONLY for you is a joke. They term it as a "deposit" -- but have you ever gone to a place where the deposit is the WHOLE amount? In a service economy, you pay for services AFTER they ha... read more

Hair Care w/Funk – It was great to find a hair care specialist that was not a salon or a boutique for a man. I found Uncle Funky's after it was recommended that I visit for a free consultation by my friend provided by the Uncle Funky's staff. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was more than a hair care place, with it's music, style, soul, and funk deeply ingrained in the establishment. From the clothes, to the workers, to the stylists, the store had its own way of doing things. I liked that natural spirit that it sho... read more

Lack of customer service and unfriendly – I went to this salon twice and was very disappointed both times. One of the owners of the shop (the guy who normally greets you at the front desk) is always extremely helpful and friendly. However, his wife named Tonya (the actually hair stylist) is the complete opposite. She doesn't know how to smile, she is not informative at all and appears to be very agitated when questioned about their processes and/or techniques. Before going to the shop, I was warned by several of my friends w... read more

Best Curly Hair Products Period! – Ray and Tonya are gems. They have a wonderful product line that actually works and they take the time to really educate customers on which products work best on your hair. Recommend them totally.

Simply the Best – Everyone knows that Uncle Funky's Daughter is one of the best, most professional natural hair salons in Houston. I travel quite a bit but I always fly in to get my hair service at Uncle Funky?s. The owners and staff are well-respected, friendly and have always provided exceptional service to many, very satisfied clients -- present company included. It is unfortunate that some people spend time writing bogus comments about the owner with an attempt to defame the business while at the same time--coincidentall... read more
