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--coincidentally listing the phone number to their "new" salon that has exceptional service. There is a “best salon ever” type salon out there for everybody, and as human beings we should love ourselves and each other enough to provide feedback so we can collectively be better instead of discouraging potential business. I have been going to Uncle Funky's Daughter for the past 3 years and have witnessed so many consultations that I am sure I can do one myself. During the consultation clients are given ample information on how to schedule appointments, deposits required and the salon policies. It is unfortunate that the person who wrote the negative comment below did not listen to nor READ the bold, plain text lettering that is on their services menu. What their clients know about the salon is that it is a sanctuary, if you will. A safe haven from people soliciting your business for this product or that product; a zen zone from the common salon yelling, gossiping and horseplay; and it offers complete and total privacy and protection for its customers. I play professional sports and I welcome this place where I can relax—shy of any autograph signing, have great conversation, watch a movie or ESPN and know that "the guy" at the front won't just allow any and everyone to enter the salon if they are not being serviced. I don’t need to see a photo of myself on any blog or myspace fresh out of the shampoo bowl. So, here's to "the guy" at the front...good looking out.
Pros: Service, Ambience, Professionalism, Punctuality
Cons: Parking is a motha on Saturdays

I like the location and the funky clothes they have but not their attitude. While I was getting my two strand twists done ,(which I didn't like )my husband tried to come in the back to check if I needed anything while waiting but the gentlemen that works there, (I believe he is one of the owners,) rudely told my husband that he couldn't come to the back not even for a second. My husband told him he was just going to check up on me for two seconds but they still refused. We were in shock!!! I understand every business have their policies but it can be done in a nice way. I found a much nicer and welcome salon- its called Natural Resources 713-528-7102
Pros: Location
