I really wanted to love this place. The stylists and the manager were all professional and nice to work with, that part isn't the issue. But honestly, after spending over $700, I'm just really disappointed with how everything turned out. My highlights came out chunky and uneven, nothing like the soft, blended, lived-in look I asked for (in addition, the blowout I got during my first appointment was the WORST blowout I have had in my entire life). I went back twice to get it fixed, and I could tell they were genuinely trying, but it still wasn't right. The tone at my crown didn't match my ends, there was brassiness that never fully went away, and now, a few washes later, that brassiness is already creeping back. On top of that, my hair ended up noticeably darker overall than what I wanted in the first place. I also went in for what should've been a simple trim, and way more length came off than I asked for (and I've spent years trying to grow out my hair). At the end of the day, I paid a lot of money and went through multiple appointments, and I still didn't get the color or the cut I asked for. Really disappointing for the price. read more

I cannot say enough amazing things about Trey--he is truly next level. I've trusted him with my hair for a while now, and not only has he done my extensions flawlessly in the past, but this recent cut absolutely exceeded my expectations. He has an incredible eye for detail and just gets it--the shape, the movement, the way it frames my face... it's perfection. My hair feels healthier, lighter, and somehow still fuller at the same time. That's a rare skill. What I love most is that Trey doesn't just "do hair"--he elevates your entire look. Whether it was my extensions or this cut, I always leave feeling more confident and put together than when I walked in. If you're looking for someone who delivers luxury-level results and consistency every single time, Trey is your guy. I won't go to anyone else. read more

Bella Rinova Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SALON! My mom and I were in Houston for an event and made an appointment at Bella Rinova in advance to have our hair blown out and styled on Saturday the 8th. I made us appointments to be seen at the same time, however, while I was able to get my hair done, my mom was not because her stylist was supposedly finishing up highlights her entire appointment time. My hair was basically done, and my mom had still not been seen despite having an appointment at this supposedly "luxury" salon. While someone did offer to wash and dry her hair they were unable to finish drying it as we've already been at the salon for almost an hour and 40 minutes, which is ridiculous considering the appointments were only supposed to take 50 minutes. At this point, we were worried that we were going to be late for the event due to the weather and the salon, and the situation was extremely stressful for us so we left. While the salon did not charge us for my mom's appointment she was extremely upset and was in tears by the time we got out of the salon. This is not the way to treat clients. Clearly, my mother was bumped for some other perhaps more important client that wanted their hair done, which made her feel terrible and extremely disrespected. My hair was beautiful and my stylist, Mary, did a great job, as did the people who tried to wash and dry my mother's hair, but the way the salon is run and operated is horrible, and I would never recommend going here, especially with how much it costs. Making an appointment at an establishment and just never being seen is honestly insane. We probably would have been treated better at a super cuts. I almost never leave yelp or google reviews because even if I have a bad experience at a business I usually chalk it up to it just being a bad day for the staff or something, but this was unforgivable. Shame on you Bella Rinova. read more

Very expensive here. Not sure if I'll be back. But I was happy with my outcome. Just my pocket wasn't...ha-ha. I hated my blow dry. I didn't like the going in with a a flat iron and flipping my ends with this humid air in Texas that didn't hold up good at all. The deep wash and conditioning was nice though but again the cost for services here is outrageous. But cost of everything is going up everywhere too. read more

Came to Bella Rinova in December for a wash, blowout, and style. I asked for Cindy Crawford waves and Trey delivered! It was gorgeous and I really enjoyed my experience with him. Amazing work and good conversation! Had a great time and the vibes were perfect. In addition, everyone here is super kind and attentive. I even got walked out with an umbrella since there was a downpour at end of my appointment! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. I will definitely be coming back for more hair stylings and haircuts in the future. read more

If you're a man and you wanna keep your hair do not I repeat. Do not have your haircut by Alex HUITI.! After two excellent haircuts by Alex this morning I was treated to the most horrible haircut of my life basically a marine buzz haircut!!! Two weeks before Christmas! It was so bad. The receptionist volunteered not to charge me for the haircut and she did not charge me for the haircut, but I'm still left with a bald head for the holidays. This is inexcusable and how Alex stays employed at Bella Renova. A fabulous establishment is a mystery to me. I hope this saves someone from the same fate, I'm enduring this year read more

Fernando has been my one and only hair dresser for YEARS! Once he moved here I came right with him! He is skilled in all things color, cut and style! I 1,000% recommend him to any and everyone!! read more

Trey worked a miracle with my hair! After a couple years of going to the same person, I started to feel like I wasn't getting a real haircut. Trey sat me down, listened to me and brought my hair back to life. He has many years of experience and values furthering his education, no matter how long he has been doing hair, so that he can provide the best experience possible to his clients! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable when it comes to hair but he also has a fun personality, which makes the whole experience very enjoyable. I highly recommend Trey! read more

Turk is the absolute best!! I love my new haircut it looks so healthy and amazing. Thank you so much Turk!!

I see TREY GILLEN for color and cut. HIS WORK IS PERFECTION. He's freaky fast applying color, his haircuts grow out so beautifully, he maintains the integrity of the hair (super important for us unnatural blonde girlies), and he's a total hoot! I typically don't enjoy getting my hair done because it's so time consuming and quite boring, but I very much look forward to my time in Trey's chair. I can't recommend him enough! read more

Let me start with the "Wow Factor" Bella Rinova Salon has, Raquel C.! Our first meeting was my wedding hair debacle, blonde gone all wrong at a different salon. Raquel was able able to not only correct it, but make it even prettier than I expected! Today she came to my rescue again, proving she is definitely worth the drive! Thank you Raquel, I love it! I always enjoy my visits here, I leave feeling so pretty read more

I had the absolute pleasure of getting my hair done by Trey. I haven't had my hair colored by a professional in over 15 years and Trey was very patient with me. He took the time to understand what I wanted and exceeded my expectations. I have natural hair and he colored, highlighted, blow dried, flat ironed and cut my hair. In addition to his top tier skill set, he also has exceptional customer service. I will definitely book with him again for my hair needs. read more

Kristi was fantastic she did magic on my hair it looks fabulous. Wonderful experience beautiful salon, super clean and tasteful. Beautiful location. 100% recommend. read more

Poor Business Practices. I had to reschedule my hair appointment during the Jan. winter storm, and received an inappropriate follow up call from the owner, Lynnette Davis. As a long-standing client of this salon, I was faced with a scolding "cancellation policy" response. No other rescheduling solutions were provided. I then decided this was no longer the salon of luxury and decided to not reschedule at all. Consumers can choose to spend their $400 hair expense anywhere they are treated with respect. Three hours later, I received an infringing call at my place of employment from Lynnette Davis. She was accusing me of lying about Black ice safety and icy road conditions. Tracked me down at my job to validate her narrative and validate her irrational customer treatment. Poor leadership and poor business practices. If you book here, beware of the cancellation wrath. read more

Destiny is amazing! If you want to be blonde blonde (like next level Nordic) AND work with a stylist who makes you feel comfortable but is also incredibly talented and professional then you need to go to Destiny at Bella Rinova. I found her through her amazing work on Instagram and am so glad I did she has helped me reach all of my blonding goals since I started seeing her in December and set my expectations for the process the entire way through. I drive to Houston from San Marcos to see her and would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a stylist who is so fun to work with, super professional, and 100% on top of the latest techniques and trends AND how to perform them while keeping your hair super healthy! read more

If you're looking for the BEST hair stylist in the city, go to Trey Gillen! I've been his client for more than 10 years, and I trust him fully. Together, we've gone from dark bob to sassy pixie to fun blonde to long EXTENSIONS! Trey is a master at sewing extensions so they seamlessly look like part of your real hair. And let me tell you about color! As I mentioned, I went from dark brown, single process to highlighted blonde. I get so many compliments! I hope Trey never retires because I will cry (and have hideous hair!). Also, Bella Rinova... The salon is gorgeous--so much natural light and beautiful decor. The staff is friendly and attentive always. Parking is super easy in the garage. Love this place! read more

Bella Rinova Salon is the only Salon I go to! Their hairstylists are very talented and know what they are doing! Trey is my hair stylist and I have been seeing him for four years now- I rely on him every 6 weeks!! He has worked for almost 30 years in the industry, and started in New York City for his first seven years, he knows blondes very well! His career in the industry has lead him to opportunities throughout the US. He also is the Artistic director for Sachajuan. Given my experience with him for 4 years, I Highly recommend him!! He is a quintessential example of the hair stylists you can expect at Bella Rinova and the hairstylist you want to be cutting your hair ‍! You will not be disappointed! @treygillen @bellarinovasalon read more

I have been on the hunt for a go-to hairstylist for routine haircuts for a while now, and after my recent visit, it's safe to say I still haven't found one. This is a gorgeous salon with fast and friendly service. It's very clean and spacious with lots of lighting so it feels very comfortable. I wish I could give this place 4.5 stars, because I'm only jacking down the rating because I don't LOVE my haircut. I scheduled an appointment with Alex, and he was very quick to take care of me. He's a very chill, friendly guy, but I couldn't help but to feel like my haircut was rushed and almost careless. I don't hate my haircut, because it wasn't that drastic of a change anyways, but I don't feel the best about it. All in all, the experience was pretty great but my results were not so great. Worth a shot if you've got the time and money to try new places but it's not worth the price point in my opinion. read more

As always I left loving my hair thanks to Trey! He's the best in Houston. Truly an artist and a master of his craft--cannot recommend him enough! read more

I've already written a glowing review about my colorist extraordinaire, Eric (a true master and color genius,) and this time, I must rave about my stylist. I chose Ryan, solely, because his bio on the Bella Rinova website specifically states that he specializes in long hair styles. Well, he is a true artist. But this is what makes a GREAT stylist: he didn't ask me what I wanted. We agreed on the amount to cut (I took 6 inches off the length,) and then he went to work. He has the confidence and ability to pull that off, working purely on instinct. He's the pro, so I didn't question him. He executed with such precision and brevity, I didn't dare. And when he was finished, he simply explained what he did and why he did it. The result: looking in the mirror, I thought, "dang, I look UH-MAZE-ING!" Isn't that the result we all seek? I'm in love with this cut, and it has nothing to do with what I thought I wanted, because Ryan did ask me. He did what a great stylist should be able to do: he seized control and brilliantly executed with sheer perfection. Bravo! read more

Raquel Calhoun is absolutely wonderful. I'm originally from Los Angeles and I tried 4 separate salons in Houston and had HORRIBLE experiences with every single one (my hair broke off right before my wedding) so I continued to go to California. Two days ago I went to Raquel and I finally feel comfortable and trust someone with my hair and highly recommend her. I have thick, curly hair that is dark and she understands that and listens to exactly what I want. She also teaches you tips and tricks throughout to help keep your hair as healthy as possible. Anyway, if you're looking for a professional that knows what they are doing- look no further! read more

I saw Turk for a Brazilian Blowout, and I am so glad I did! My hair is so much more smooth and manageable, it's life changing. Also, after I washed my hair the next day, my hair retained its volume, just like I asked! He's so great at responding to any questions I had even after the appointment! 10/10 recommend!! read more

I went earlier in February for a haircut, that was my first time being there. The salon is so beautiful and clean. There's also a lot of natural light coming in from all the windows, which I think is nice. The front desk was very kind and helpful. Complimentary tea, coffee, or water. I went to see my girl Destiny, she is honestly the BEST! I've been going to see her for a little over 2 years now. I follow her wherever she goes. I originally have very dark hair and she's a blonde specialist which is what I've been wanting to do for a long time. She has achieved my goal of going blonde without all the damage that comes with it and for that I'm very thankful. I have an attachment to my hair (it reaches down to my bottom) and she has done everything to make sure it stays fresh and healthy! She will not color my hair if she thinks it'll fall out. She really truly cares and I love that. I'm sure everyone at the salon is great, I saw everyone in there getting well taken care of & smiles everywhere. Great environment! Can't wait for my next appointment! Parking is easy as well. there's lots of free parking in the parking garage and it's a cute walk to the salon through the district! read more

Perfect, excellent with Shayla a bit pricey for length of service, good vibe. Generally on time clean friendly staff

Love this Salon and, even more, love my hair stylist Trey! I have been going to Trey for several years now and always leave my hair appointment feeling fresh and beautiful. He always caters to my requests and keeps notes on each of my colorings for future reference. He is very professional and definitely skilled at what he does. I couldn't be happier and love going to get my hair colored and cut by Trey! read more

Trey Gillen is super talented and always gives me am amazing cut. I have difficult hair, that is long thick and frizzy, and he can make it look beautiful. I highly recommend. read more

I first met Trey Gillen when I moved to Texas in 2018. I was extremely apprehensive about working with a new stylist as my hair had been completely fried (and was actually falling out due to the damage) by a color treatment prior to moving to Texas. Trey sat down with me prior to my first appointment and asked me to share my goals and vision for my look. He came up with a long term plan for restoring my hair health and color. I have never had someone sit down and genuinely discuss my goals and this is what makes him an expert in his field. He is meticulous and focuses on every detail while incorporating his clients goals and desires. He not only restored my hair to perfect health but also helped me regain my confidence after living with over a year of damage to my hair. He is a genius with color - blond is a challenging color to do correctly on someone with dark brown hair and he makes it look incredibly natural. He is full of unique and modern hair styles when you are looking for a change, another testament to his mastery of this field. With regards to Bella Rinova, it is an absolutely beautiful salon. Parking is free and easy to access. The supporting staff are friendly and very accommodating to my busy schedule. I commute 2 hours to receive the type of service and care that I receive from Trey and his staff and it is worth every mile driven and then some! The location is fantastic, heart of River Oaks and full of restaurants and shops following your appointment which makes for a great day! read more

Trey has been cutting my hair for several years and I can't imagine going anywhere else. He is super talented and approachable and knows what looks good on a guy. He's done short and medium length styles on me, so I dont get stuck in one style. Im a dark blonde and for summer he gave me highlights. i was kinda worried, being a bit conservative in appearance, but they were natural and looked fantastic! Got alot of compliments. Definitely a great experience. read more

Trey is an absolute legend!!! This was my first time being at Bella Rinova Salon and I am absolutely IN LOVE. For my 28th birthday I wanted to treat myself to a new hairstyle. I had a loose-idea of what I wanted but wasn't completely "set" on it. When I got to the salon I was greeted with some of the most friendly smiles and the warmest atmosphere. Matthew promptly greeted me, got me checked in and ready -- waiting (glass of wine in-hand) for my stylist, Trey. We had a quick consultation about what I wanted (long layers with a caramel balayage) -- Trey used his professional expertise to expand on my vision. I knew by the way his eyes lit up that I was in good hands & my new "doo" was going to be beautiful!! we spent the next few hours chatting as he snipped away. When he was done, I was ecstatic!! It looked even better than I could have imagined! I left feeling rejuvenated, pampered, and confident. All this to say -- if you are looking for a new hair salon, or need a new look...chalk it up to self-care, and make the appointment!! I promise it's worth it!! Trey will make all of your dreams come true read more

Kevin did a great job with my cut and blow out. This was my first time at Bella Rinova. I'm always nervous when I try a different stylist, and as always I was anxious about how much was being cut. As soon as Kevin showed me the finished product, I knew he was a keeper and that I could trust him. I also love that he didn't overload my hair with a bunch of heavy products - he kept it super simple but effective. My hair looks amazing and so healthy. Your hair will be in good hands with Kevin. read more

If you want the best hair color and style, Trey is your guy! Since I started going to him 3 years ago, my hair has never looked better. He's an absolute wizard with color and I trust him whenever he wants to play with new looks. The result is 100% incredible every single time! I love that he knows exactly how to style my hair in a way that compliments my face shape and skin tone. He's taken care of me for countless weddings, special events, and my own baby shower, and I always get a million compliments. Trey is also the SWEETEST person and genuinely listens to your requests or questions- if you have a specific look you're going for, I promise he will deliver! Seriously, I will follow this man wherever he goes And I'm SO happy that he's now at home at Bella Rinova. The salon is beautiful and the staff is so friendly. As opposed to other high end salons in Houston, the staff here seem to actually enjoy their jobs and not take themselves *so* seriously, which is a breath of fresh air. read more

Trey Gillen is absolutely the most talented stylist that I know. He is truly a master of his craft and I trust his expertise and skill without reservation. Every time I leave his chair I say, "This is the best hair cut I've ever had." I would follow him anywhere, but I am so, so glad that he and Bella Rinova finally found each other. The salon has an impeccable vibe - It captures that savvy 'it' feeling 100% and yet avoids the salty, pesky air of pretension that beleaguers most Houston salons. Love it, need it, want it and cannot wait until my next visit! read more

I am extremely unhappy with the lack of communication and timely call backs from Bella Rinova. After not receiving "timely call backs" twice about available appointments with specific a hair stylist, I requested to have the owner call me. Instead, I get a call back from the manager who is the one who had not called me back twice with "time sensitive" information. When spending the amount of money, I have spent at this high-end salon I would expect better call back responses a well as customer service. read more

Trey is hands down the best! I don't trust ANYONE ELSE with my hair. Do yourself (and your hair) a favor and try him out. You will become a lifelong client of his. He makes suggestions for what may suit your face best, but is certainly not aggressive with his own agenda. He takes into account what you want and tailors your look accordingly. 11/10 recommend! read more

Trey is the best! I've been going to him for years and he always gives me the perfect blonde! I always get asked who does my color and I let everyone know this man is a miracle worker and they need to let him work his magic. read more
