Etheria Salon & Day Spa

04/11/2008 Posted by heather80

I have been going to Etheria for three years. I get my hair cut and highlighted there. I also get manicures and pedicures there from time to time. The technicians are so talented! I often get compliments about my hair. The salon is beautiful. They also have a gorgeous patio that you can view while you get your services. The staff is really nice and so much fun. They always greet me by name when I walk through the door. I also always have a place to park.

I live in Angleton and I come all the way to Etheria to do my hair. WILSON is the best! Etheria salon is great....you will find great service, ambience, and the great Wilson. I'm very selective of the people that cut & style my hair, but ever since I found Wilson, I kept him. I've been going to him for over 5 years. He has great talent; his hands work like magic. You tell him what you want and he will do it....and much better. You will love Etheria and Wilson.

I moved back to Houston a year ago and was disappointed with my former stylist. I tried Etheria because of reviews in a local magazine and on Citysearch. My hairstyle is simple, but my color is not, and Wilson has nailed it every time. Whether I go in with a headache, tired, or in a bad mood, I aways leave feeling more human because of the atmosphere (it's not hectic, there's a lovely courtyard), interactions (I enjoy our conversations, but I can read if I prefer), service (I've never waited more than five minutes and I am always offered something to drink). When I had a migraine, Wilson suggested a massage before he would style my hair, even though that must have played havoc with his schedule. It worked wonders! Wilson seems to have the same great rapport with his other clients.

I have been going to Etheria for over a year, starting with Giavanni and then, because of scheduling, Wilson. Not only are both Giavanni and Wilson entertaining, a plus when one considers the "waiting" time, my hair has never looked so fabulous. I had attributed my dull lackluster hair to age and thought this irreversible. Now I can say I never cease to be amazed at how many strangers stop me to comment on how beautiful my hair is. The color is perfect and totally natural with a beautiful shine and alas, no split, fly-away ends. Recently Wilson gave me a Brazilian conditioning treatment....wish I had done this ages ago...worth every dollar. WOW!!!! Went into today with a headache. Wilson insisted on sharing his Aleve, as well as having me get a short massage while my color set. Walked out feeling like a new person. Yes, I will keep going back and highly recommend it. Oh, the spa has a new look....very chic!

After reading some really nice reviews about Etheria, I scheduled an appointment to get highlights. Little did I know I would be paying a high price for extremley low quality service. The hair stylist did a horrible job. My hair was a brassy color, It did not blend well, and the color did not go evenly to my roots. It looks like it has already grown out in some places! I let the stylist and the front desk know disappointed I was and they were very rude and cold toward me. They did not seem to care at all. I felt like I was rushed off so they could get to the next customer. I was charged full price and no one offered to fix anything. I just couldn't wait to get out of that place. I could have done a better job highlighting my own hair with a cheap box of haircolor from the store!

Pros: The chair I sat in was fairly comfortable

Cons: The place smelled like cigarettes, poor customer service, extremely low quality.

My boyfriend recently moved to Houston and not knowing anyone to go to for a referal, I decided to get on Citysearch and look for a place to get my hair cut and colored. I'm pretty picky about who does my hair, but found some great reviews on here for Etheria and it was close to our house. So I booked a time and ended up with the owner for a cut and color. I figured it was going to be great, he was the owner afterall! Little did I know what I was in for...that I wasn't actually going to receive much of his time at all. He had his assitant doing almost all of the work and even left me while cutting and styling to do someone else, leaving her to finish up the job. Given the prices that you have to fork out to have him personally do your hair, I was not pleased. I was also not pleased when I mentioned that I had found them on citysearch and thought I'd give it a try because there were a lot of reviews on here and in response he said 'I don't understand people that get on there and fill these things out, don't they have a life?". Hello! I had just told him that is exactly how I found the place. Thanks dude. Along they way he also refused to cut my bangs because as he stated "straight bangs with curly hair is just too 80s" (despite the fact that I was living in paris at the time and it was completely in style). $200 later I came out with boring brown hair (no highlights visible at all), no bangs and a bad mood. Every time I drive by and see the Voted #1 on CitySearch, I scowl and say something snarky, so I finally just decided to get on here and say something...not that he will read it of course :P

Pros: carry good/hard to find products

Cons: owner, everything else

When it comes to my hair I'm very selective. I have never had my hair look its best. The color..the cut..the style..is fanstic. This is a great place. The customer service is excellent! I highly recommend my stylist her name is Ana. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

Pros: Skill, Staff

I've gotten my hair cut at great salons such as Michelyndon on Post Oak next to Cafe Annie, the place next to Linens n' Things on Post Oak (the name escapes me), and the Urban Retreat. To date, Giovanni at Etheria is the best stylist I've found in Houston. Be sure to tell him exactly what you want. You'll get a classic, yet modern style. If, after the cut, you want a slight alteration, like shorter bangs, don't be afraid to go back and get it fixed at no charge. (But I still tip.)

This was the first spa place for me and it has become the golden standard. For the price you pay, it is worth it! Massage and facials have been always meticulous and fluid, not mechanical. Spacing is just right for a nice escape, making visits feel like a true spa experience (can't hear the busy salon on the other end of the grounds). I just wish there was an Etheria closer!

Pros: professional, serene

Cons: far from me
