Loved my experience despite all the craziness in the world. Everyone here seemed very responsible. Masks on, they opened the door for me, brought me a rolled apron, asked me to sanitize with they're touchless sanitizer. Then I noticed someone wiping down and sanitizing the counters after I had just been up there with my purse and such. Very proactive, very respectful. They make sure you're okay with a blow dry too. As for my hair - I saw Brittany and I loved her! Comfortable to be around and she definitely was as detail oriented as I was about my hair. I chopped off probably 7 inches of hair or so and she was checking in with my comfort zone constantly. Did a great job with my natural high lights too (I'm a natural blonde so don't use my picture for reference if you're not also a natural blonde lol) all in all great experience and will be back! read more

Love Haley! She's great at listening to what I really want and always delivers. She's definitely a color expert. Vanity has also been super accommodating, and I appreciate that since my schedule stays pretty unpredictable. Even though I had them squeeze me in, nobody made me feel like I was being rushed out. Means a lot! read more

Vanity is an adorable salon in the Heights. They have great off street parking with easy access. Hailey and Taylor are incredible. I have received so many compliments on my cut and color. All the staff are very welcoming and friendly and go over and beyond to accommodate the clients schedule. read more

Great price and great service!! I have always went home happy with my hair. As someone who has been to many different hair salons, please take my word for it. read more

Returned to my same stylist for a second time for some highlights. I was satisfied w the hair color however my hair ended up completely damaged and broken. My hair was literally fried in bleach for 3-4 hours . Mind u bleach should only be left on for 30 min. My hair was cut the same length all around days before the service and i now have way shorter piece's than others. I went the next day to complain about the breakage and all my stylist could say was "no there was no breakage from a professional point of view " I paid wayy too much money for this service for my hair to have come out fried like that. I was quoted something way different for this service too & just ended up very disappointed. read more

My new go to Salon! Haley did an awesome job on my color. She is consciousnesses and actually did exactly what I wanted ! Hard to find ... The salon is clean, front desk personnel nice and price point for service is competitive with other salons I have been to. read more

My first time there, had Sydni as my stylist. She did a great job with my hair, took her time with me, asked questions, and gave me something easy to style myself. I have found my new stylist! Liza GB read more

Completely unprofessional. Made an appointment two weeks in advance to be told the day of the appointment that I was not on their schedule.

Haley does an amazing job with color !! With only using 1 picture as a reference she nailed it & gave me exactly what i wanted !! So so talented . Left the salon very pleased w my service . read more

Angelica is amazing: I went in for a color correction/major color change and she absolutely nailed it, and quickly too! I went from a messed up light blonde to the perfect coppery red! I've been a blonde my entire life and the first person I talked to after going red truly thought I was a natural redhead because she did such a good job. She was even able to fit in a haircut when I had forgotten to schedule a color AND cut. (It won't happen again!) I felt so comfortable and pleased that the customers around me had all been seeing their stylists for a long time. Great environment and easy going vibes. The consultation process gets rid of any questions or unknowns because Angelica (and the other stylists from what I could tell) answers any questions and explains the process along the way. I would recommend this salon, and Angelica in particular, to anyone! I'm so glad to have found "my" salon! read more

Vanity Salon - I don't have a before picture unfortunately but this is the finished result! - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

What an amazing place! Alandra was a magician! She fixed a bad haircut and made my hair look wonderful! I have found my go-to salon!

Went to get highlights, toner and a cut and was very pleased! My first time here and recommend to anyone looking for a salon in the Heights. The salon was very clean and well kept, which is important to me. Haley did an AMAZING job on my dark hair. Definitely will make this my new salon! read more

I have had my hair done here several times and have been happy every time. My regular stylist, Melyssa, in on maternity leave. I was fortunate to have Courtney so my highlights and Taylor do my cut today. I love how both turned out, and for a very reasonable price! read more

Vanity Salon - High and low lights by Courtney, perfect shorter cut and wavy styling by Taylor - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

Saw Hayley for a full highlight and trim and she was amazing! I don't think I've ever had my hair done this well! I finally found my hair place in Houston! read more

Highly recommend - Mia was amazing !!! She knew exactly how to cut and style my hair. She has great intuition and is super friendly. You won't regret a haircut from her !! Decor is great, space nice and open, and they took covid precautions (hand gel / temps at door / masks) which was also important to me. Another thing- Have been to a lot of Aveda salons, and I was happy that Vanity didn't push their Products for purchase, which I appreciated greatly. read more

Boo! Went to get my hair dyed Saturday morning. Single process. No frills. Girl asked what color I wanted & I said chocolate brown & showed her an admittedly blurry pic of my son. I love his hair. She didn't even ask me to approve the swatch before mixing it up & putting it in my hair and she waaay over dyed me. The girl who washed my hair was working really hard to get all the dye out. She kept scrubbing & rinsing in a way anyone would recognize as putting in major effort. My hair, after leaving the "best salon in Houston" reminded me of the bottle dye my grandpa used to put on himself. It looked terribly fake. Just awful. To make things worse, there was dye on my t shirt. I went for a run later & the dye was still bleeding. Even after showering, I fell asleep later on my white comforter & you can tell where my head was. Please see pics. All this for the low low price of $160. lol For reference, my hair is fairly thin (I just had bulk removed last week at a different salon) and it is only shoulder length. $160. The two stars are for the super nice guy at reception & the hard work the dear hair washer put in. Thanks, y'all! read more

I had a wonderful experience with Selena today. She is currently at the San Felipe location but she is moving to this location. She took my yucky quarantine hair that was wreck with box dye. I hadn't cut it in months. She didn't act like it was a big deal to fix it and she got to work. I am used to being uncomfortable when getting my hair colored, especially because I got a base and highlights. She also cut my hair and made it such a comfortable, relaxing experience. It looks great and was exactly what I wanted. read more

I have my 3rd appointment with Gabby today. She's marvelous with my short hair. And it's everything you expect from a Heights neighborhood salon. Friendly, intimate, great service and convenient. The Aveda factor is an added bonus. read more

Super sweet staff. I loved my haircut it was gorgeous. 10/10 recommend and it's an Aveda salon which was a plus.

Can't thank Rory enough for reaching out after my negative phone experience. He made it very easy to get in and have one sitting instead of two. Excellent customer service. Definitely recommend to family and friends! Brittany did a fabulous highlight and cut/style! Lovely salon--highly recommend! Brittany did a wonderful job of listening to all the kinks and quirks that I personally know about my own hair. It was so nice to be validated and heard at a new place. One thing I really liked--not one negative word about the current state of my hair! I have had experiences where a stylist will badmouth the job the previous stylist did. Great location, easy parking, staff very welcoming. Love that they followed up after a negative review--this totally erases the previous experience! read more

Brittany is seriously fantastic! She's been doing my hair for almost 2 years and did my hair for my wedding. She really listens to your concerns and over all hair goals and let's you know the best path to reach them. And she will not let you leave her sight unless you look amazing. Love her! read more

Been growning out a botched haircut from another stylist for months. After walking in to Vanity last week to purchase Aveda products, had a brief consultation with Gabby while she was in between clients. Got my long and somewhat curly hair shaped up by Gabby yesterday and was pleased with results. She listened to me, understood what I wanted and will do a 'dry cut' as I always prefer. The salon is very nice and modern, uses and sells all Aveda products, from hair, skin and body products to makeup so glad I no longer have to go the Galleria when I need an Aveda product. I've been to all the popular salons in the Heights and this one is my favorite. Will be returning. read more

Brittany is the BEST! She has been doing my hair for over a year now and it's never been better! I've been a bridesmaid several times over the past year and every time I get an updo the stylist comments on how well my highlights are done. Not only does she listen to what I want but she also gives me her professional advice/input which I appreciate. Her personality is warm and friendly. She's my stylist for life! read more

This salon is beautifully decorated. The staff is awesome. I came in nervous because I had never had my hair colored before. Gabby did an amazing job on my hair. She was very knowledgeable and advised me as to what would damage my hair and what would look great one me. I felt very pampered while at Vanity Salon; my experience was fabulous. The outcome was amazing and I couldn't ask for more. I will definitely be back! read more

I moved to Houston a while ago and I've been searching for an Aveda salon. I decided to check out Vanity due to its 5-star rating on Yelp. I came into the salon with high hopes, but left disappointed. I came in mid-day on a weekday, not a busy time. I was excited and ready for the Aveda experience I've had in the past at different salons which included excellent customer service, sensory rituals, great Aveda products, and an overall pleasant experience. Met with the stylist and explained to her what I wanted. I don't bring pictures, because I hope for that same look, but it never turns out the same. So, I've learned to just tell my stylist what I'm looking for and let them work their magic. This time, however, it must have just not been a good stylist-client match. I explained what I wanted and she gave some suggestions. One of them being a dry cut. I've never had a dry cut and I will never have one again. I came in for an experience, but all I got was a haircut, literally. No Aveda products, no sensory rituals, average service. I trusted her, because all the other Aveda salon experiences I've had worked out well. I've tried styling my hair different ways, but over the past few days my disappointment has grown and I'm really unhappy with my haircut. The stylist was nice and funny, but I can't stand looking at my hair right now. I won't return to this salon and my search for a new stylist continues on. Glenn was great though in scheduling my appointment and helping me with the bill! read more

I was referred to vanity salon and I can definitely say this will be my go to place from now on for all my hair needs! Angelica was amazing! She listened to my needs and did an absolute awesome job on my haircut! Going back Friday to do balayage with her! Definitely recommend this salon! read more

Jamilex was fantastic! She knew exactly how to cut my hair and style it while not applying a lot of hear. The location is so charming and the salon is so beautiful. They also sell Voluspa candles! Thank you Vanity Salon and Jamilex for an amazing experience. read more

I was very impressed with how my highlights and cut turned out! Melissa was great and super helpful. So glad I decided to try this hidden gem in the heights! read more

Brittany is amazing!!! She has a magic touch with hair that is unlike anyone else! I've been having her do my hair for the past three years, (for about 2 at this locations) and she has transformed it into healthy shiny hair- even with color treatments. My hair has never looked or felt better! Highly recommend her and this salon! read more

Angelica is amazing! I went in and tried to describe what I wanted and she knew exactly what I was looking for, even with my limited knowledge of hair terms. She came back with a plan of action and it was a little more than I wanted to spend, so she adjusted the plan to cut down on cost, but still keep a similar look. I loved that she was so upfront about the cost so that I wasn't finding out for the first time at checkout. I love my results and Angelica, so I will be back! She's great at balayage and I'm obsessed with the final look! read more

This salon is GORGEOUS. Location is perfect. Really intimate feeling, the staff provided amazing service. Melyssa did my color and cut and she did an incredible job. I will be back (in 21 days to be exact)!! read more

I only left a one star for the clean and modern salon. Last Sat., I had an appt. with Angelica for highlights and a cut. I showed her a pic & I explained that I wanted to go for an overall lighter look with medium thickness highlights. She mixed the color and did my highlights with no attempt at conversation. The receptionist came and told her that her next client was waiting. She then sat me down on the booths to let the color process. I sat there for about half and hour and never once did she check on me b/c she was working on the other client. After she finally came over and took a quick peek at the color, she told another girl to wash me out except for a couple of the highlights at the top of my head. She hadn't even checked on those but just assumed they would take longer to develop b/c she did those last. The other girl washed me out and then sat me back down for ten more minutes. She then washed me out and called Angelica, who was still with the other client, over. Angelica looked at my hair and then didn't say anything. I asked for a mirror and saw that the highlights that she had done were super thin, not medium thickness as I had requested. I don't know if she was trying to save on product but that was clearly not what I had requested. she didn't even want me to look in the mirror and kept saying that she didn't have time and that we needed to hurry up b/c her next clients was arriving soon. I decided to just let it go because she obviously doesn't listen to or care about what her clients want. She also quickly dried my hair with zero styling quickly walked me to the front desk and went back to clean her station. When I got home, I noticed the ton of breakage my hair had endured b/c she had left the lightener on my hair for so long without checking on it. If you love your hair, make sure you avoid Angelica. read more

Love this new Heights location. Its beautifully decorated and sets a calm and relaxing scene and atmosphere- perfect for taking a couple of hours to myself. The Heights is a little bit of a drive for me, but I followed Melyssa there because she is the best! She gets my highlights and color perfect every time. I definitely recommend her to anyone seeking a good colorist! read more

Melyssa is our family hair stylist and probably will be for a long time. I have been to many barber shops and hair salons in the past and no one can get it right. Melyssa can handle any male hair style I've thrown at her and she makes it it look great! Not to mention my wife's hair. She has done color and cuts that make my wife's hair look amazing. Melyssa cuts our 2 year olds hair as well and is very patient with kids. I'd highly recommend going her to see Melyssa at this great new location in the heights. read more

First of all the Salon is beautiful, however I felt so violated when I left the salon, I was told a price and then when I went to pay it was more. They don't go over the charges at the front desk they just input in computer and give you a total, when I asked for an itemized list of the charges is when I found out the prices I was quoted in the chair with the stylist where not what I was charged when I asked why the gentlemen went and talked to my stylist and instead of her coming and speaking to me (she did not have another client in her chair) she told him what to tell me, I was so upset I left in tears. I love Aveda products and thought I found a great salon but now I am not to sure. I reached out to the salon to have a manager contact me but no one did :( read more

I transitioned to Aveda makeup and wanted to shop local. I walked to Vanity and when I stepped inside, I was immediately greeted with warmth. Emily assisted me with my purchases and left out the high pressure sales pitches which turn me off to any shopping experience. I appreciated being treated as a valued customer though it was my first time and I wasn't there for a service. If I didn't love my current stylist so much, I'd definitely make Vanity my go-to for my hair styling needs. In the mean time, Vanity will be my Aveda products home. I do hope the Heights location expands its services to facials and massages. I look forward to returning and supporting this local outstanding business. read more

Love the location! I went in for a much needed haircut during a hectic week and they were very accommodating with my schedule. Melissa was my stylist and I would recommend her. read more
