User Reviews for The Upper Hand - Royal Oaks

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Bryan was trained under the incomparable Lacy and inherited me (and my extremely thick, problematic hair) upon her departure. I can honestly say he has excelled under her tutelage. He not only gives a superbly skilled cut/color, he is personable, friendly, listens to his clientele, and gives them exactly what they want - even if it’s not in their best interest =) And will happily take the time to fix what they should have listened to him about in the first place! I can’t say enough about Bryan, he is the ONLY one who touches my hair. The rest of the staff/salon experience is top notch as well. You can’t go wrong at the Upper Hand, and I wouldn’t trade Bryan for a box of diamonds!

I saw a friend that just got her hair done and styled and I loved it! She reccommended Sherry from the Upper Hand, so i tried it! BEST SERVICE! She massaged my hair, she was VERY patient, her customer service was awesome, and she was SO helpful at deciding what cut and style was best for my hair. The atmosphere at the Upper Hand is great and spa-like. Very comfortable, great helpful staff. The results were AWESOME! all of my friends were speechless! They all loved my new hair! I had a great relaxing time too! I actually took some of sherry's business cards and gave them to a bunch of friends! I tell everyone everywhere i go! Sherry, and the rest of the staff at Upper Hand were amazing! 5 star service

Pros: Great staff, awesome atmosphere, and reccommended by many people!

Cons: None!
