I went in for a hair cut after my niece who is going to beauty school convinced me to allow her to work on my hair and it was an unmitigated disaster. Eric said he could squeeze me in and he immediately set me at ease. The salon itself is decorated with a chic vibe and the music is catchy but doesn't linger in your head all day. It is overall relaxing. He massaged my head when he washed it and I felt my tension break down around my shoulders. At first I didn't think he was cutting enough off but that was my mistake because I was giving him mixed instructions. Once I clearly told him what I wanted, instead of doing my normal double speak, he had my hair beautifully done EXACTLY like I wanted it done. It is perfect. I just left and I couldn't WAIT to give a review, and I NEVER give reviews. Do NOT let anyone touch your short hair because so few hair dressers can do short hair well. read more

If you're looking for a stylist who actually listens, go see Eric. He took the time to understand the look I wanted and executed it perfectly. I left the salon feeling great and finally found my go-to stylist. Highly recommend! read more

Eric contacted me the day after I posted my comment, and his attitude was exceptional. He was kind, humble, and very professional in his work. He reapplied the treatment to ensure I was more satisfied with the results, and on top of that, he offered to give me a haircut at no additional cost. Despite my comment, he remained warm and considerate at all times. He clearly explained why the treatment may not have worked as I expected and mentioned that, due to the characteristics of my hair, I might need more frequent treatments. That, of course, has nothing to do with the quality of his work. I truly appreciate his dedication, his patience, and the respectful way he handled the situation. read more

I have a lot of grays and was wanting my hair dyed without the use of bleach to achieve auburn highlights. He was very creative in the way he gave me the highlights. My hair turned out beautiful. I achieved exactly what I wanted. He listened and worked meticulously on my hair. The end result was just beautiful. I love that he listens and comes up with a creative technique to make his clients happy. Thank you, Eric! Highly recommend him! read more

I have been looking for a classic pixie cut. Not everyone can cut a pixie. Eric looked at the photo I brought and gave me a wonderful pixie cut! He does a shampoo, cut and style in a beautiful salon. You wear your hair every day. Find someone that gives you the cut you are looking for. Eric does a great pixie cut! read more

I dont trust anyone else to cut my hair, I literally fly in from New York to get my haircut by Eric. Truly the best!

This guy is a FROSTED FLAKE. He gets deep into religious talk that completely deviates from what I consider basic human decency. He in evangelical in his tone. (Notice that his logo includes a cross). Shame, because he is really talented when it comes to color and cut. Long and short, in late 2021 he asked me to "interview" him for use on his you Tube channel (I'd only been to him 3/4 times by this point, so I thought this request was a bit of an inappropriate ask from a client). He tried to get me to do it on a Sunday. I kept putting him off hoping he'd take the hint. He didn't. We finally agreed to do it at my next scheduled appointment on a Saturday. He promised me I would be his last client of the day to be able to have my hair done while I was interviewing him. As we sat down I asked him if we could barter for services. He agreed to give me one or two of the less expensive services in exchange for my "interview services" (I usually pay between $250/$300 for highlights, color, cut and blow dry, incl. tip). We started the interview and some of the stuff coming out of his mouth was so troubling. About how we're all going to hell because we aren't living in accordance with the bible. Uhhhhhh...oooo-kay. . He had hinted at some of his viewpoints during our previous hair sessions, but I didn't realize how deep rooted and just...hateful it was. And just...preachy. Like, a woman has to be chaste and stuff like that. Anyway, halfway through, he tells me he had "mistakenly" put down a very elderly client later that day and this particular client couldn't be in the salon with anyone else and couldn't know I was there, so Eric asked me if I could effectively wait either out on the street or elsewhere in this building (which is mainly an apartment building). Like an idiot, I obliged. What is normally a 2.5 hour process for my hair turned into FOUR HOURS with him secreting me to the recreation room of this apartment building and bringing me back into the salon once the elderly client was gone. I was so aggravated by this time I balked when he tried to charge me for anything. By this time, we had done about an hour's worth of interviewing (I guess he thinks he's pretty interesting and people want to hear him espousing what I consider pretty hateful viewpoints about society and people in general). And given the wait for this elderly client to leave, I think I was well within my rights to not pay anything. I told him he shouldn't charge me anything given the four hours I had spent there with him hiding me from his other client. He reluctantly agreed, and I left. I started thinking about all the GARBAGE he spewed during that interview that I texted him and requested that if he posted the interview he NOT post my name and include a disclaimer that the viewpoints expressed in the interview were solely his (sinceI disagree with almost 99% of his viewpoints). After some back and forth, he agreed. He mentioned in this text string from March that he would want me to sign a release that he was going to send me. I never received it. Today, I show up for my appointment (about 4 months after the interview saga). I sit down in his chair and he tries to get me to sign this release he'd mentioned. I read this ridiculous release and elected not to sign it. He then tells me I would have to pay for the services from last time. So I just got up and left because that's not how this works. I made an ENORMOUS mistake by doing to the interview to begin with. I should have said no. He never should have asked. (No one cares what you think anyway, Eric). So there you go. I will say it again. This guy is one of the BEST colorists and hair stylists I have ever been to. But he's cuckoo for cocoa puffs, not a decent human being, and just a PITA. FFS, leave your hateful religious views to the side and just do my hair. read more

i recently had a great experience at Eric Perez Salon. 7 weeks ago I suffered a stroke and brain surgery. For my type of surgery the surgeon shaved my right side of my head and had a massive scar. I survived a very delicate medical emergency. Once i got discharged from the hospital I started searching for stylists for a pixie cut in Houston. i did a google search and came across Eric Perez Salon Instagram photos and videos. I immediately knew I wanted him to do my hair. I scheduled my appointment and explained him my situation. I have to say he does wonders and has such gentle hands. Cut my hair very pretty my scar was out of sight. Thank you Eric for my hair cut. i feel pretty again. read more

I believe I have been coming to Eric since 2019. I recently moved to the north side of Houston and my haircut was long overdue, after browsing around locally I decided the best choice was to make the drive to the Galleria area. Eric just knows what he is doing and honestly he is the only person I trust to touch my hair. The very first time I knew I wanted to go short but didn't know how short and after asking him for his advice I have stuck to it. My head feels so light and honestly I just look more mature with short hair and as a mother of two I find that important. 10/10 would recommend and will keep going back. Eric has relocated and the new salon has a nice vibe. Valet parking is complementary. read more

I cannot recommend Eric Perez enough! I am not what hair stylists want to see: not so great hair in not so great condition asking to be accommodated at short notice! Eric didn't flinch and there I was sitting in his chair at 7AM on a Saturday morning with a vague idea of what I wanted and a better idea of what I didn't! Eric was amazing he listened to me and worked with me to achieve a result that - the customer- would be happy with and he - the stylist - wouldn't have compromised his professional vision and integrity to achieve! There was no pushing on expensive products, or crazy extension or an ephemeral result that wouldn't have been viable in my case. Go see him, you won't be disappointed! Thanks Eric read more

love my cut and so grateful to have a stylist who isn't afraid of short hair! . I came away feeling sassy, sexy and polished ! see you soon, Eric! read more

I had an amazing first experience having a haircut and style from Eric. He came up on my Google search of stylists who can cut textured hair, which I need since mine is naturally wavy/curly. I had gotten an unflattering cut several months prior with chunky bangs I didn't want from a "curl specialist", and I hoped Eric could help with a shape-up. The end result exceeded my expectations, and I will definitely be back. The salon space is calming and open concept, which I appreciated. read more

Love my haircut! I was looking for somebody who knows their way around pixie cuts. And I found the place to go! Thanks so much! I've been looking for a while with not much luck until this last weekend. Great salon, love the ambience and swift turnaround time. Definitely going back! read more

I had a hairdresser put black low lights in my white blond hair. they were wide stripes that started an inch and a half down from the roots. I have thin fine hair so very noticeable. Eric did corrective color and it looks fabulous. Corrective color is the most difficult because you have to deal with the mess you start with. Sometimes it takes several visits to protect the hair. I am very happy and highly recommend Eric. Sally read more

I love my hair!! I am from Chicago and was in Houston for 2 weeks for work. I have short hair and desperately needed my hair done. However, I was pretty nervous about going to a new stylist in a city I was only visiting. I did my research and found that Eric had many positive reviews, including specific reviews about how great he was working with short hair and pixie cuts. I reached out and he was able to get me in for a cut and root touch up on short notice. Eric was very pleasant and friendly and I even had the pleasure of meeting his mother who has such a beautiful soul. Not only was the conversation and experience amazing, I left very pleased with my hair. Eric did a fabulous job and I highly recommend him as he is a talented and detailed stylist. If I lived in Houston this would have become my new permanent salon. Lastly, the salon was very clean and so beautifully decorated. read more

Amazing experience and beautiful salon. Eric did the just the cut and color I always wanted!

Eric is a master stylist. I e had a few hairstyle changes over the years and Eric cuts every one of them in the best way. He is always so positive and makes the experience easy read more

So I initially came to Eric because of his product line. I saw that he uses a nice brand that is more natural and healthy for hair (all nutrient). However, his interpersonal skills were seriously lacking. He isn't very friendly and was often condescending toward me on multiple occasions. I came in asking if he could do a color service and he assured me he could get me to the color I wanted. I made it clear that I wanted orange hair like a ginger and for it to be one solid cohesive color (as I came in with ombré hair from another stylist. I will attach pictures.) He told me he could turn my ombré hair into an orange color and that it wouldn't be ombré anymore .. just orange, which is what I wanted. Well, he sits me down, washes my hair, and starts mixing the colors and painting them on. Once the color set and was washed out and blow dried it was still ombré... just now it was an orange ombré!!!! When I saw it I told him I wasn't happy and that I want it fixed asap ( he told me he could fix it if for some reason it doesn't turn out how I wanted it.) He responds with "oh I don't have time today". Wtf.. I had to go to work that week looking absolutely ridiculous and he showed no sympathy for my situation either. So then, I'm panicking and I schedule with him for the following week to correct it. Come time to the next appointment he tells me he can fix the dark splotches so that it all blends.. well he goes in and adds highlights to the darker spots and it DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. Once he was done It was still ombré and still wasn't properly corrected like he had said it would be. So now I'm two color processes in + highlights and I tell him I don't like it and that it's STILL not right!!!! So now I'm left with an absolute disaster on my head. I've got like three shades of orange on my head that have me looking like I walked out of a trailer park. AND TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE HE CHARGED ME 200$ AT THE FIRST APPOINTMENT AND THEN 350$ AT THE SECOND APPOINTMENT TO HAVE ME WALKING OUT LOOKING LIKE A CLOWN. ... So so so so upset with this guy and the way he conducts himself and his business! He seemed bothered and annoyed even by asking simple questions. I definitely cried for days after that. Super upset. I would absolutely not recommend him to anyone. He will take on a task that he's not sure he can execute properly and when he fails he will say "well I did my job" Ha ha. Wow. read more

Modern and cute little salon for an intimate and personalized experience. Eric was incredibly patient and knowledgeable with helping me choose a color for the balayage procedure.

This guy stood me up. When I went to his new location for my appointed appointment, the door was locked and when looking in the window of his new location, it looked completely in disarray. This salon appeared to be in the process of moving in or out and didn't look ready to receive clients. I abandoned the appointment when I saw the site above Tenenbaum's jewelry store locked up and in disarray. read more

This is the first cut and already so cute and fixable ... edgy . He expects more success with future cuts as he changes my shape . He is as nice as he is skilled ! if you need a great cut by a skilled and friendly hair artist go see Eric ! read more

Eric is my hair hero. He always does an incredible job and is very attentive to what your hair needs based on your lifestyle. I have been trying to grow out my hair and keep its natural wave, which is a challenge once the hair gets to a certain length. But he's great at layering it perfectly and helping me keep it up. I recommend him highly, the studio is clean and relaxing and always an enjoyable experience. Thank you so much Eric!!! read more

Eric took my hair catastrophe and turned it into a cut I love; probably my favorite look ever. Cutting hair is an art; cutting short hair and doing it well takes a master artisan. I can't recommend Eric highly enough! read more

I went to a different stylist a couple months ago to get my hair cut short but It was choppy and uneven. I'm from a small town a little over an hour away so I looked for stylists in Houston. I found Eric after a quick google search. He was able to get me in within a day. He fixed my hair so effortlessly and we came up with a plan to let my gray grow out. I LOVE the new cut, it's so much more manageable and easy to style. read more

I had an awful experience there. I went there for a pixie hair cut because based on yelp, there are supposed to be pretty good. But it doesn't worth the try because Eric behavior is so annoying. Keep reading for the story: I got there on time and I couldn't find where should I park my car (later he told me that he forgot to send me the instruction about where to park the car) so I called him several times to ask where should I park my car. He didn't pick up so I kept looking through the streets nearby to find a spot. He called me after ~6,7 mins and he told me where to park and he said he forgot to send me the text regarding that. That was ok, I thought. I went to the parking spot that he said and got to the salon 15mins after my original reservation. He said that because I was late, he's not gonna do the styling for my hair and he will do just the hair cut. Here's out conversation: -me: but isn't the styling already included in the haircut package? -Eric: yes, but you are late. -me: but you forgot to send me the text and you didn't pick up when I called to ask. Eric took a pause and said l: sorry I can't do your haircut today! I said ok and I walked out of the store. Cause at that point I figured that was a dead end conversation. It's not only about a service, it's about morals too. if you would like to get a good pixie hair cut, I have some suggestions for you: (I'm having pixie haircut for 3 years and these are the places that are very professional in both their work and also customer service): -Amanda at salonTrose (also -Cut loose read more

I found Eric Perez 3.5 years ago because of all the amazing things I saw from Yelp and haven't gone to anyone since! It has truly been everything I could want from a haircut and more. He has cut and styled it both long and short for me, adding depth and evening out my super thick hair to make it shape and flow seamlessly. He also cuts it in a way so that when it grows out, it still looks perfectly shaped - for at least 3-4 months depending on how short it is (if it's longer, I can easily go 6+ months with how well he cuts.) And just as importantly, we get to talk God! For me, he is like a mentor and friend. He supports me when I share my hurts and cheers me on when I share my joys. And he always brings me and our conversations back to God. I feel renewed and powerful after our "sessions". He truly has been a part of my support system for the past 3.5 years and I look forward to more conversations on God and beautiful haircuts with Eric in the future!! read more

I found Eric Perez Salon on Yelp after reading the reviews...So I decided to give it a try. I always had a hard time getting my color/ haircut the way I like it. Eric was still able to manage the challenge. He cut my hair in layers and colored my hair in a balayage style. He was very patient and took the time to make sure everything was perfect. Great costumer service! I am very pleased and happy with my results! read more

By far the best!!!! First time with Eric and I'm a fan. I got a haircut yesterday 4/10/2018 at a different hair salon and left devastated, I cried when I got home to say the least! It's so hard finding a good hairdresser that knows what they are doing and listens to their client and not just chops chops chops hair away. I had asked for layers and got the total opposite. I got in touch with Eric because I came across his services through yelp, and I was in desperate need for him to fix the horrible job they had done. He quickly booked me for today and couldn't be any more grateful. I admire his technique and profession as a hair stylist. Eric definitely has a new client and I'm extremely happy with my hair now. He definitely exceeded my expectations at a 100% and I totally recommend him to anyone. Thank you Eric! God bless those hands today and always! read more

All I can say is wow! After loosing all my hair to cancer I really felt like I would never get back to looking presentable again. I always wore my hair long and had never gotten a pixie cut, but knew I wanted my short hair to look like a style . I found reviews on Eric's salon and I'm so grateful for that. I had 2 months of growth and it was just a mop on my head until Eric , cut, edged and really made my new growth into a style . I get compliments on my pixie cut all the time . Eric took the time to teach me about my new hair texture, or textures as it is growing in differently in areas. So I was taught how to care for my hair and I simply love my cut now !!! Thanks Eric!!!! read more

The first time Eric cut my hair, I loved it. It was easy to style at home. My hair is course and curly in spots and straight in other places. I could easily blow dry it straight and it had bounce and style. I went back for a trim and am so disappointed. I felt like I was an inconvenience just being there and then my cut took 15 minutes. It's too short to blow dry the way I like to, it wants to curl. It's too thick for the length. Not only was the experience not fun but I no longer really have a style. It just lays there. I'm hoping one it grows out a little it will look better. I expect more both in service and cut for the price. read more

I started coming to the Eric Perez Salon several months ago It was the best hair decision of my entire life I don't know what it does but he can work magic especially with highlights and color It's never looked so good for so long I've never experienced anything like it with the personal attention and I will never be going back to a chain again or anywhere else for that matter! Thank you ! read more

Eric does amazing work! I've looked for someone who can do pixie cuts really well for years and years. His work is gorgeous. He was patient. He listened to exactly what I wanted. He knew I was nervous so he took the cut in stages to make sure I was comfortable with everything he did. The salon is beautiful so bright and quiet. I've been cutting my own hair for years because a previous stylist left me with bald spots and a huge fear of ever having someone else cut it ever again. But I can now say I will be going to Eric from now on! read more

Eric Perez Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

Since moving to Houston in 2019 I have been on a journey to find a hair stylist. I've tried several different stylists and I always walked out frustrated and disappointed. I'm happy to say I finally found an artist. Eric Perez has ended my search. The ambiance of his salon is inviting and the feeling of sitting in a chair of an experienced hair professional was refreshing. I didn't feel uneasy or of how my hair was going to turn out. He listened to what I was looking for in a short haircut and style. There aren't many stylists that can cut short hair very well....but that's not the case with Eric. I walked out of his salon with a smile on my face and I'm looking forward to seeing what my hair adventures will be moving forward. Thank you Eric! read more

Being that I came from New York and had a very little time to get my hair done , I found this place to get my hair done and I'm very pleased with how efficient , polite and thorough Mr . Perez was. My hair coloring takes usually about 2 hours . It was all done in about 40 minutes . He used some advanced technology to get color to stick faster and I'm very impressed . Thank you Eric , I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm in Houston read more
