“Not only does she always deliver a great hair cut - and a perfect blowout - she is infinitely cheerful and makes the salon a fun place to visit.”
“Every time I get my hair done, I have pleasant and stimulating conversation, a little psychological therapy, a few laughs, a glass of wine - oh, yeah and a great haircut.”
“Needless to say, I was really anxious (I was worried that at the other salon I had done a poor job of describing what I wanted and that was the reason I got the worst mushroom/shelf /'80s skater cut ever) so I printed out a bunch of photos and brought in ”
“After extensive researching after a botched hair job at one of the top salons in Houston (Albert Luis), I found Upper Hand.”
“This is a great place for expert cut & color from a personable stylist.”
“will never ever go there again, and I will say I will never recommend the upper hand to anyone.”
“Jessica is fast, creative, always asks questions before cutting, and friendly to boot!”
“The atmosphere is great and prices are high, but you get excellent quality!”
“When I saw Josephine we talked about my hair for a good 20 mins before she layed her hands on it (I was very scared to do something else to it), then she worked her majic and fixed both my color and cut!”View Less
Houston best eyebrow thread. Ali I had the best eyebrow thread ever in the Upper Hand River Oaks by Fibee. She really is a queen (announced 2010 by City search) of eyebrow threading.
Kristin Farris. I've been going to Kristin Farris for the past 10+ years. I drive in from Sugar Land and have followed her to the Upper Hand. She has always done an amazing job on my color, cut and style. She is truly a Master Colorist....my color always looks natural and fresh, and she knows just what to do with my hair when it needs help! Kristin has always been friendly, personable and professional......makes my drive in worth it!!…
My 50+ year old hair looks better than ever!.
Kristin Farris at the Upper Hand works her magic again. I think all of the sun, salt, and chlorine of the summer was sitting in my hair when I walked in. After a great color job (SHE'S A MASTER
WITH CUT, COLOR, STYLE) and a really cool new glaze, I walked out with shiny and fresh looking hair that doesn't have the summer dooldrums anymore.
I'm a brunette and color is HARD - Kristin always keeps me "root free" and consistent with the color - never dull. Love the Upper Hand - nice ambiance!…
Kristin Fariss at Upper Hand.
Kristin has been cutting and coloring my hair since we moved to Houston several years ago. She has always done an exemplary job styling my fine, hard to manage hair. She is also very personable, and
we always have great conversations. I look great when I leave the salon. I only wish I could bring her home with me to do my hair every day!
I have followed Kristin from one salon to another, and I really enjoy the ambiance and professionalism of the Upper Hand. It is a dynamic place, and I feel like I'm on the cutting edge when I'm there. They seem to do equally well with trendy young fashionistas and with regular clients like me!…
Upper Hand - Balony!. We flew to Houston from LA to attend a wedding and heard that the "Upper Hand" was a top Houston salon. I spent about $300 to have both my daughter and my hair and make up done. It was SO NOT WORTH it! My stylist was rude and inexperienced, they switched me to another stylist and it wasn't much better (at least she was pleasant) but my hair looked awful. It was so disappointing to have spent so much money to attend the wedding and then not be able to look good for the wedding. I would not recommend this salon to anyone. I was very very disappointed. When I look at the pictures afterward they confirm what a bad job it was. So Sad:) Avoid this place…
