Le Blanc is such a wonderful, cute and upscale salon/spa. The decor is so beautiful in here. You feel pampered the moment you step in till the moment you step out. Peyton performed a blowout and style for me, she is wonderful! She is extremely attentive to detail. During the wash, it made me rethink the way I was washing my hair. The massage was just so relaxing and phenomenal that it's tempting to hire someone just to wash your hair! It is clear that Peyton is absolutely capable and knowledgeable with hair as she performed a spectacular job! I tried to make my hair last for 2 more days, which it did! I would recommended services with Peyton in a heartbeat. The experience I had was professional and over the top.

Photo shown for color I desired

Walked in for a hair cut and highlight and showed Kim pics of color and hair style i desired then was told it would be $316. I told Kim that $200 would be what I am willing to pay as i only have a shoulder length hair so Kim replied that at least 2-3 shdes of colors would be required to achieve the result from the pic i showed her and they used a good product so i went ahead thinking i could trust her and the place had a 4-stars reviewed. i was told to wait 10mins cos another lady would be doing my hair not Kim. I asked who was going to be the lady and Kim replied that they had worked together and she had years of experience. The lady (forgot her name)who did my hair only did one shade of color for me and when i asked Kim why it became only one shade of color but not the 2-3shade like she told me then Kim replied that they are doing this balayage highlight technique that will make my hair and color looks natural (totally not answering my question). Toner was then applied to my hair and i was told this toner would make my hair color looks natural (for a medium brown/black hair?). At the end, when i told the hair dresser to have more layer at the back of my hair i was told that she had a client already waiting. When Kim gave me the receipt and asked me how do I like it and I just replied it was not even the color i showed you and left cos i was not happy at all and felt so disappointed. So overall this new experience with new place is a crying shame.

The WORST and UGLIEST shellac manicure in my life.
Helen K.

The WORST and UGLIEST shellac manicure in my life. The brilliant experience started from the girl who was giving me mani not asking anything about what kind of shape do I want neither if I want to keep the length, she just filed it into nothing and ask if its fine like that She didn't soak my nails neither cut the cuticles as well. She also did pretty ugly job with nail polish keep messing it up with her hair as it wasn't tied. After being charged 55$ I politely explained that they should give lil better service for such price and pointed at the things I wasn't satisfied with. The manager trying to be polite at first said they will fix it. I was completely fine with that I asked to put powder and bring the nails to the length they were before she filed the shit out of them. The asian guy obviously not being satisfied with the fact he needs all the job to be redone for free was complaining a lot being rude to me and finally said he will fix it for additional 65$ Not feeling like spending today 120$ total on mani I left with ugly nails and spoiled mood Being not complaining kind of person I've never left any bad reviews or anything but in this case just couldn't help myself. Sorry for spreading my negative vibe just warning ppl not to waste money and time for nail service at this place. They do have tasty strawberry flavored water tho! That's probably the only advantage. Still doesn't worth 55$. Piece

One of Effie Varsamis's cuts
Megan P.

I recently visited Effie in Houston to get my hair done and felt it was time for a review! The salon was beautiful but the real gem is Effie. I worked as an assistant with Effie Varsamis in Chicago and the entire time felt I hit the jackpot. I have very thick, frizzy wavy hair and was victim to a lot of bad cuts in life but Effie was able to layer/thin it in a way that no one else could, a lot of stylists didn't want to cut girls with long or very thick hair because it is more difficult but Effie never complained, her cuts are very modern looking and I honestly never saw anyone leave her chair not looking great Which brings me to color. I once saw her work an absolute miracle on a girl who dyed and highlighted her hair at home, her highlights are amazing, after I started getting highlights from her I was always getting asked where I got them done, and also getting asked where my hair was CUT. It was the first time in my life I was getting compliments not that my hair was curled pretty or something but that it was cut well. I will post pictures so you guys can see what I mean But OH there is more. Effie is a genius with updos. She did my hair for prom, I cam in with a pearl necklace and asked for something with braids, grecian-goddess-esque and she went to it, it was a LOT of work she took a long time doing little details with the braids and making sure everything was really secure so it'd last all night. She really listens to what you want, but she is able to figure out what will look good when you don't know what you want too which was so important to me. A girl working at the salon got married while I was there and everyone asked for Effie to do their hair. It got to a point where the owners had to ask a few girls to have another stylist do it because literally every girl wanted Effie. Last but not least, extensions. Effie is brilliant with extensions. I might be mistaken but I believe she did a lot of extra training for extensions.. Effie had the most clients for extensions, I never got them myself but in the time that I worked there 3 other employees did and they all asked for Effie. And that's because working there we see everyone's work and we know who to go to and who to avoid. One girl had very thin hair and Effie made her look like a whole new person, seriously she is magic. Effie is someone who takes a career as a hairstylist seriously and she is passionate about doing good work. All I can say is I'm really sad Chicago lost her.. but when I need warm weather and a good cut/color I will be going to Houston.

Payton did this! Love the soft curls after my cut!
Alissa N.

Payton washed, cut, and styled my hair. She did an amazing job. You can tell she's still kind of young with it. She's been doing it for over 5 years and had her own business at one point. She completely listened to everything that I requested. I use to tell new stylists to just do what they wanted and it always ended up uneven or unmanageable. She understood and worked with all of my preferences. She took her time and have the BEST shampooing ever too! Love the soft curls that she added to my hair. Will be seeing her again.

Before-and-after at my first color appointment.
Libby W.

Incredible service makes this a luxury spa experience for a reasonable price! Kim and her staff make you feel like you are the most important person they'll see all day. They really like to have fun with their clients. I'm very shy but they made me feel comfortable over the phone and when I walked in the first time. I love getting my nails and hair done there. At LeBlanc, the customized deluxe manicure/pedicure experience is TO DIE FOR-- and no guilt necessary, because the staff are enjoying themselves too. It's like a happy family in there. Best pedicures I've ever had, with no pain even with my ingrown toenails and sensitive skin. They recommend perfect colors for me when I can't decide. And the boys give great free skincare advice while they're working too! My first hair appointment was for a difficult color combination of dark red hair with a teal blue peek-a-boo pop underneath. Kim didn't hesitate at all but immediately looked at all my sample pictures and mixed customized color for me. And I never felt weird for being a middle-aged mommy asking for blue hair; they were totally accepting and celebrated my new look with me-- with toast after toast of champagne, my favorite! Now they always put the champagne in the fridge for me when I'm coming. And snacks for that all-day color appointment. Great cuts and styling too, and Jackie works alongside Kim so the blowout goes quickly. Kim not only explained her styling technique, but even loaned me her curling iron when I had to go out of town to be in a wedding! Thoughtful, friendly service doesn't get better than that! Flexible scheduling, plenty of parking available, spotlessly clean space. You want to go here. Trust me.

Fun stuff
Sarah B.

Great new salon. Very clean and cute. The staff was amazing! They even went out of their way to get my son a drink, make him happy with the tv and were just great to us in general. Defiantly recommend this place to anyone. And best pedicure I've had in a very long time

I was extremely disappointed with my blowout experience. I asked for the "old fashioned" style with…read moreloose, big, uniform waves, but what I received were very tight curls that looked nothing like what I requested. I felt like I was going to my high school prom. This blowout was especially important to me because it was for my maternity photoshoot--something I've been planning and looking forward to for a very long time. When I got home, I tried brushing the curls out to loosen them, as I was told they would fall, but they would not loosen at all. I even tried adding water, and that still didn't help. Unfortunately, the curls stayed tight and didn't give the soft, loose look I was hoping for. In the end, I had no choice but to put my hair up for the photos. I was honestly so sad and unhappy about it that I felt like crying. This was a moment I really wanted to feel my best in, and the hairstyle just didn't align with what I had envisioned or asked for. I've been to this location (River Oaks Houston) before and had a wonderful blow out, so it was just this specific person. That being said, the stylist herself was very nice, kind, professional, and I don't have any issues with her personally. She did tell me the curls would fall once I brushed them out at home, but sadly, that never happened. I just wish the style matched what I requested, but it was so far off. If I had the time I would have just washed my hair and curled myself when I got home but I had to go straight to my photo shoot. I even thought about rescheduling the shoot to another weekend but I would have lost the deposit. I am so disappointed given how meaningful this occasion was for me.

Light snacks, like cranberries and nuts are provided along with hot tea options, and citrus flavored water. The space is very nice. There are locker rooms with plush spa robes and complementary slippers. The locker room has two steam showers if you want to wash yourself after your massage. They also provide hair products to try as well as a Dyson hair dryer. I was definitely very impressed with the luxurious feel of the spa, however, was turned off by the receptionist who checked me in - her robotic, transactional nature was starkly juxtaposed against the warmth of the spa. I noticed she was the same with all customers so it wasn't personal but interaction with her was unsettling. I booked the 60min signature hydrafacial and the esthetician was welcoming and willingly customized my facial based on my requests. No major issues encountered but I noticed we started 10 minutes late and ended 10 minutes early so I thought marketing it as a 60min experience was a bit misleading. Also note the 60min Signature Hydrafacial does not include any hand/neck massages nor boosters nor light therapy so the $285 price was much more expensive than my usual spa. I will not return for another facial but may try massage in the future. We also booked pedicures and again the space is beautiful!! We were given a palette to select colors and the ladies were extremely friendly! My toes came out adorable! I found the seating to be very uncomfortable for a short person despite many pillows placed behind me for support so I honestly struggled to enjoy the experience but the space was very nicely decorated and clean looking. We were offered tea and snacks at the beginning as well. Overall, this was a very nice spa. I found it fairly expensive and overpriced, but I recognize beautiful spaces have a cost and that's what I should've expected in the River Oaks area. There is complementary validated parking!

There was no expiration date, it just says "next service". So while I was planning on finding another salon initially, I was pulled in by the offer, plus the stylist that would have done my hair is very nice and I was familiar with her. Seemed like a win win. However, upon checking in, I decided to ask about the email and I was told that it no longer applied. I was offered 10% off, then 15%. While that is nice, that is not what was emailed to me. I mean to be fair, I didn't ask them for a discount, they emailed ME. So I left, then came back to show the lady the email, so she knew I was not making this up lol. She then said ok fine we can do it at 30% off, but the vibe felt off by then. It was awkward for me, which is 100% my problem, but I kind of felt like I would be begging for a discount...that was offered to me before I got there lol. Anyway, I decided to just leave and with that, I am no longer a client at this salon. There are so many places to go in Houston, I'd rather spend my money at a place that honors their word without prompting. Note: it wasn't until I said that I would be updating my Yelp review that they could suddenly do the 30% off. The stylists here are really nice and the salon itself is nice too, but this threw me off.

She then began a series of treatments including the use of special brushes to massage the scalp, removing dead skin cells.
