Westheimer · Houston, Texas
Balayage, baby lights and hand-tied wefts by a team that treats bond health as part of the service, not an afterthought. Colour and extensions in one appointment, in one chair.
The salon
The Upper Hand has built its reputation in River Oaks on the hardest thing in hair: lifting to a bright, clean blonde without wrecking the hair on the way there. Every lightening service is built around a bond builder, because integrity is what makes the colour last past week two.
Extensions are the other half of the story. Hand-tied wefts, installed in rows, give length and volume in a single sitting — and cared for properly, the hair itself lasts about a year. That reusability is what keeps the maintenance cost sane.
Consultations are free and honest. If a look is going to take two appointments, we say so before you sit down.
