This second-floor hair salon offers devoted clients a hospitable atmosphere and expertly trained stylists. Though it's decorated with stylish art pieces on the walls, the salon is quiet and relaxing and a welcoming glass of wine awaits incoming clients. In-house stylists are entirely hip and totally capable of providing of-the-moment looks and expert color. The salon caters to an even mix of men and women and carries Phyto and Bumble and bumble hair care products.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Vanessa

by TXJRSYGRL1 at Citysearch

I love my stylist! I moved to Houston 3 years ago and began my journey of finding the right stylist. I searched high and low - even committing my time and money to "the hair salon" in my area. Each visit, I walked away feeling defeated and unsatisfied. Then I walked into SOK and was immediately put at ease when I shared my story with the receptionist. He immediately hooked me up with Vanessa. Her hours are convenient. My appointment time is dedicated to me - no double booking or overlapping. And I absolutely have a great time while I am there. I have been seeing Vanessa for a little over a month now and in that time I have had my hair cut (into the cutest bob) and dyed (first time ever) - that's how much I trust her judgement and expertise. I have finally found my stylist! Thanks Girl!

TISHA IS THE BEST

by Ashwey84 at Citysearch

I came into the salon with boring long stringy hair. Tisha gave me the best cut I've ever had before. She put a few highlights in my hair that I am so happy with. Not too blonde. A really pretty color. Nice ambiance in this salon and they don't try to shove products down your throat. Will def. Be back. Nice and cool in there too!
