By complete luck, I stumbled upon William over a decade ago after moving to Houston, and haven't let anyone touch my hair since. I have long hair, and no one has ever cut it as well as he does. Not only is he lovely, he's incredibly talented and has a great eye. I don't color my hair, but have sent many friends to him that do and they are always happy. read more

This review is long overdue... William has been keeping my beard and long hair stylish and current for 3 years. After moving from California, I search in vain for a beard and men's stylist with an eye for what works and what doesn't. If you have a full beard or long hair, William should be your hair guy. What I like is that he knows me, how my hair grows and what look I'm going for.... Definitely a step up from trendy barbershops that give you a shot of whisky, but have no clue who you are or what you like/need. Also, if he recommends you try something slightly different, trust him... he knows what he's doing. My beard rocks and it's because of William (aka Guillermo)! read more

William has been doing my hair for over a year and has been great. As a man with longer hair it's hard to find a stylist that is as good as him at what he does. I've always been beyond satisfied with my haircuts, thank you William! read more

Amazing Salon! The new salon is spacious, classy and relaxing. Parking is not a problem . I have been going to Lawrence for 10 years. He is the best for short, sassy hair styling. After I was wash and dry my hair I just need to fluff it with my fingers and ever hair falls into place! Lawrence spends at least an hour cutting and styling your hair and its $80. (I actually think he should charge more!) If there is something wrong with my cut , I call him and he does a recut. His coloring technique I are also amazing especially highlights with lowlights. He has a front private station with big windows and mirrors. Very nice . Wine if you are ready to relax...,, If you are willing to trust Lawrence with your cut and don't mind paying a bit more then I highly recommend Lawrence at Satori Salon. PS..Plan ahead if you need an appointment because he is in high demand.. read more

My experience here with Spencer was amazing! The salon itself is huge and very beautifully laid out. I went in for a cut and color. I told spencer what I had in mind for coloring and she quickly had an idea of what to do. She told me what she had in mind for the cut as well and how it would work for my face shape, which I appreciated. The whole process was much quicker than I expected, usually I'll spend 5-6 hours at the salon. But with Spencer, I spent about an hour less and my hair was lighter than I usually go. We had a really good conversation and she'd also explain what she was doing to my hair as she went. I'm super low maintenance when it comes to hair; I don't really even comb it if I'm being honest. But I'm still in love with my hair weeks after my appointment with her. All in all, Spencer is awesome and I highly recommend her! Can't wait to go back :) read more

Satori Heights Salon - Balayage - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

I've been seeing Anita since Studio 31 for 5 years and counting! Very personable and sweet - She is an absolute master of color, traveling nationwide to teach as part of TIGI. Several years ago, I was (and am still) rather lazy about fashion/grooming but figured I should at least put some effort into my hair. I scoured the internet for a stylist who I could trust, give me direction, and a deft hand in cutting Asian hair. I found Anita on Groupon and adored the balayage work she had done on Yelp. Check out her work on Instagram (@hairbyanitat) - she pulled off a stunning mermaid green recently. I love the caramel balayage she painted on my hair - natural looking, complementing beautifully with my black hair, and low-maintenance. Anita used high lift and no bleach. Seeing the aftermath of my friends' hair that have been overzealously DIY bleached & dyed, I am very grateful and credit her for how healthy my hair is. Between my nomadic ways and Anita's very busy schedule (pre-COVID), sometimes I haven't been able to make it back for long bouts. Anita has always remembered my styling preferences without missing a beat. This week, my appointment was booked under my new married name after not being back for over an year. Anita recognized me immediately even with a face mask and still remembered EVERYTHING. I'm very grateful I found a lifelong stylist I can trust. Thank you Anita! read more

Stacey Daniels - formerly at Studio 31 Hair Lab - is now at Satori Heights Salon. Actually, a handful of S31 hair stylists, like Leslie, Anita and Curtis are there too. Stacey has been my hair gal since 2010. Cut, color, the best blow outs, free bang trims, free consultations - I'll send her all of my pinterest hair inspirations... and she makes it happen. As for this salon - it's great! It's located in the massive Sawyer Yards retail center, so there is plenty of parking. The salon is huge and offers other services, like waxing. They have more than 30 salon chairs, so you're bound to find a stylist fo' life. read more

Saw joe farina for cut and color over my dark brown hair roots with some grays and grown out balayage. Asked for a dark golden brown single process. Got an orange tawny medium brown that looks okay from a far but In bright light is very uneven with the roots being much lighter and reddish tone than the rest of the hair. Just looks processed and not natural. Cut was good but was just a trim. read more

I have been Rocco's client for more than 5 years. I was so blown away after the first visit that I knew I wanted to stay on his books. His color technique is fabulous, it is magical to see what was once sad, tired hair come back to life in his chair. Rocco can grow with your changing style goals and tastes as well. We've gone from balayage to multidimensional chocolate brown, face framing layers to French bangs, and I've loved every look. He will give you his honest thoughts about your ideas, and that's welcome too because I trust his opinion. Besides taking his craft seriously, he has a good heart and fun stories. Don't hesitate to book with him if you are considering a new stylist! read more

I see Stacey Daniels who has a chair at Satori. Love her! She and I have been together for nearly 10 years since the Studio 31 days. She's a great active listener who asks questions to understand what you really want. She also know how to balance what you ask for vs what is realistic. I had asked for an ashy balayage at one point but she talked me out of it since she knew the level of maintenance needed didn't match up with what's required. Stacey really understands Asian hair since that's what she learned early on in her career. Satori isn't really spacious and also houses lots of stylists; I never feel crowded. read more

Anita is AMAZING! I would 100% recommend. I came across her IG page because she was having a promotion for nurses and thought I would go ahead and get a balayage for the summer. I always have issues with coloring my hair and end up toning it because I don't like the end result at other salons. Anita took the time to consult with me to get the hair color that I desired. I'm so glad that I decided to go with Anita. I'm grateful that I found a stylist that I can trust. Thanks Anita! read more

Love this place. It's in a great location with great stylists. I've only been here twice since moving nearby, but both experiences were great. I have super thick hair and curly/wavy hair. It's overwhelming for most stylists. I'm happy to have found a stylist, Ludmila, who knows how to style my type of hair. read more

Today was my first time at this salon. I love that they had complimentary coffee and wine for my morning. I had an appt with Anita for a balayage at 9am. Lets just say my hair is every hairdresser nightmare. It's long, thick, dark and porous. I have been to many Instagram famous hair stylist and I have to say she gave me the best result and still treated my hair with care. She did not overlap the bleach on my blonde and foiled it in very thin section to make sure my asian hair whiten at a high level. Follow her instagram @annitaaa_t to see more of her work. Here is a before and after of my hair. read more

I went in as a walk in for a shampoo and deep conditioning treatment, was seated with Angel. In conversation I found out she was new, I wasn't expecting to get the absolute BEST head massage, and deep conditioning I've ever had! OMG is all I can say.

Satori is a wonderful salon. It reminded me of my days in New York and Los Angeles, when going to a salon was an experience. It's located in unassuming area, within an adorable parking lot. Jennifer at the front desk is pleasant and has a wonderful disposition. Rocco, Rocco, Rocco simply rocks. He took me from drab to fab. After tons of shedding after my baby, I thought I had few if any choices for my thinning, damaged hair. I now know that regardless of what state my hair is in, I can count on Rocco to bring me back from the dead. My husband loves it and it's very easy to maintain. It drys quickly and is simple, yet fun to style. Although, I'm still battling shedding, I feel confident that Rocco can help me through this period in my life. Just trust in him and don't be afraid to take risks. He's straight forward with what he can and cannot do with your hair based on your looks, hair length, condition, etc. I value that in a stylist. I've found my stylist! Going to have him clip my middle schoolers hair too. I totally put our hair in his hands. read more

Liz at Satori is singlehandedly the best hair artist I have encountered. I showed her my vision and she made it suit me and improved upon it. I'm very picky about who I let touch my hair or appearance in general and though my first appointment I was nervous she proved herself to be extremely talented. Definitely one of the best hair artists in Houston. Also we talk the entire time and she's cool af but very professional. When I don't want to talk she picks up on it too, which is a hard skill to learn. Couldn't ask for better. 5***** read more

My first time coming here & the colorist special Chelsea did my hair. She did a great job! I was so scared at first because my hair was blue green then black. I told her the color I wanted and literally eased my mind day and night with how the process will go. She continued to give me the reassurance every time I texted her. The day of she seated me immediately, and got to work. She was able to remove the color I perviously had and began the process of my desired color. She took her time with it and it came out perfect! Got so many compliments the day after. read more

Booked a haircut, style and makeup for my brother's wedding. I called ahead of time to confirm how long the services would take to make sure I had enough time. I booked my appointment but they ended up being over an hour late and the services took even longer. I made it to the wedding an hour late. My haircut was OK. I did not like my style. I asked for something completely different from what I got. Since they were an hour late on getting started, my stylist had to move on to another client and had someone else style my hair. My hair is curly and it was not brushed or smoothed out before styled and therefore by the end of the night I had extremely matted hair. My cut was also never checked. My hair stylist did offer me a free style for next time, however I will not be going back. Makeup services were good. They were very attentive and accommodating. read more

I just finished getting my bayalage done at Satori and I left with mixed feelings. Pros: The quality of work is superior than most I've seen. I can understand the high ratings based on quality of product alone. Cons: 1) My stylist Dora Lee was almost 1 hr late, after confirming an appointment 3 weeks in advance. I have a heavy schedule and really appreciate prompt service. 2) She never apologized or even mentioned the delay upon meeting me. In fact, she barely talked to me- she did mention going out the night before to another stylist. 3) Upon first reveal the tone turned out blonde instead of caramel as I had requested. The stylist said it looked better and tried to somewhat convince me to go with a new look. After some back and forth they retoned it and stated that is what I originally requested. Overall: I wanted to try something new and treat myself. I felt like I was a burden rather than an experience. I will not be coming back. read more

I walked in with dry boring hair down to my ribs and asked Juan to do his thing. He chose a style that I can still pull back for work but is more flattering as well as easier to style. My hair is very fine and thin. He did a fabulous job Thank you Juan. You're forever my stylist. read more

The salon has tons of parking and a great varied appearance. Very clean. Staff pleasant. Saw some people randomly picking up things off the floor. Telling as that means they have enough respect for their workplace to do the little things. As a transplant this was my first haircut in houston in 14 months (don't ask). Gina did a great job. Personable. Listened. Very pleasant and fun to talk to. Not too serious. Most important she gave me a great haircut. Really enjoyed the experience. read more

Best coloring I've ever had, hands down. Lisa Webber brought her 10 years of experience for me! I keep getting compliments on my hair.

UPDATE: So Huy reached out to me after my previous review . He initially wanted to put a base color in and do a treatment for me. And then allow my hair to rest and then redo the highlights. I had really bad damage from the bleach (x2) so I decided I only wanted a conditioning treatment and then I could decide on the color later. He did the treatment for me, which saved my hair!! I've posted pictures of my hair after treatment. I am thankful my hair isn't falling out anymore BUT this whole process has been difficult . Long story short, the communications between Huy and I have just been too time consuming and much of a headache. I understand that reviews are important for your business but you don't go retracting your rectifications (fixing my hair) and accusing your client of expecting "too much for free" , especially when I offered to pay for all the services. I probably shouldn't have even offered because all the mistakes were made on his end. Anyways, he's a super nice guy and very easy to talk to. and from what I can tell, wants his clients to be happy and holds pride in his work but in all honesty, I need a better listener as a hair stylist. Yes, I have expectations that the job be done right, and yes, the first time. Don't we all?? I am still not 100% satisfied with the color. The front is too blonde, one side is more blonde than the other and when my hair falls naturally, you can see the clear separation from back to front. However, I'm sticking with the color mainly because I don't want to go through this process again and will just have to maintain styling my hair daily to blend the color As Huy said, we all make mistakes, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt he was having a bad few days. He has a number of great yelp reviews (which is why I went to him in the first place), so you can all judge for yourself. But I've shared my experience with you yelpers- enjoy! read more

Had my first cut with Rocco today and I'm so glad I found this place. I've been trying different high end salons for the last couple of years with similar results each time. Most places have focused solely on good coloring techniques or hair extensions, neither of which I do. So finding a place that can cut has been really hard. When I said give me a new look, but keep my hair long Rocco understood exactly what I was going for. Estella was super welcoming and did a great job washing my hair. Can't wait to see them in 6mo. read more

Amazing salon!! This place is so relaxing and everyone here was super friendly. Their shampoo beds, yes I said beds, are heaven!!! Rocco Rivera never lets me down and always impresses me with his work, as I am very particular with my hair and he always leaves me with beautiful healthy hair. If you are very particular and expect perfection and are in need of a great stylist that knows his stuff , Rocco is your guy! - as for the receptionist, wow is all I have to say. She is super knowledgeable and friendly and recommended some of her favorite products to me. That being said, look no further and give this place a call. read more

I have been going to Nancy for years. She is wonderful. Now that she is sick they suggested I have Noel do my hair. He was horrible. He ask me what I wanted and didn't do anything I said. I have short hair and just wanted a trim. The cut is nothing like I said. If you have short hair you know there is nothing you can do to hide the worst haircut I've ever had. He acted like he was so much better than me. It started out with him having my hair washed before he even saw my hairstyle. I can't believe a salon like Satori has him there much less recommending him. I will never go back read more

First time here and couldn't be happier! Rocco cut my extremely long hair into a bob, and gave it bayalage. Having very dark hair, im always concerned with it turning orange when its colored. But Rocco nailed it. Looks exactly like the pictures i showed him. Color is gradual and not brassy. Exactly how bayalage should be! If you want to book him for yourself: 832-708-9603. read more
