Salon Matos

A friend of mine referred me to Salon Matos «the best salon bar none» for a total revamp haircut and style.
First off, everyone is very welcoming and make you feel right at home.
Second, Kaylee is AMAZING! I don’t know that I’ve ever felt so relaxed. Her shampoo and massage combined with the soothing music were enough to melt away the day and nearly put me to sleep. After discussing what I was thinking I wanted to go wth a new style, she had my every confidence that she would give me the style and cut that would compliment me. Before my cut was even finished I was blown away. Not only did she give me a gorgeous cut but she shared so much knowledge on how to get my perfect style every day.
I was blown away and I’m sure you will be too.

My first salon visit was this morning. David Lowry was my stylist. The cut and color are flawless. I really loved the fact he could offer both services and I did not have to see 2 separate people. I highly recommend. He was a very skilled stylist.

Yesterday was my first time going. Since I have moved to this side of town I was taking the risk of trying new places! I have to say, Audra did such a great job on my long thick crazy hair! besides the great hair cut and style she was such a great person to chat with. Customer service was excellent!

Have been going here for 5 years! Is amazing! Everyone is good but be ready to spend money it can be expensive.

Made an appt. with David after my cousin made the recommendation. The place is close to home… Very nice and spacious locale with a lot of stylists. The receptionists both greeted me when I walked in and were friendly and welcoming; they offered me a beverage. The assistant stylist was very nice too; loved the way she shampooed and conditioned my hair. It was like 5 minutes in heaven. Wish I remembered her name.
Anyway, I had my appointment with David. I explained to him what I was looking for since I wanted bangs. I showed him two pictures to give him and idea of what I wanted and he quickly said he understood. He worked fast and was nice. I was very happy with my haircut and I love my bangs! So I will definitely return.
Although the place is a little pricey I think that they provide a wonderful experience and do a good job. I did forget to ask if they trim bangs for free though, my last stylist did provide that service.

The best! Have been going to this salon ever since it first opened! When I was in 7^th grade of middle school! I am now almost 23… Pretty sure that is over 8 years now! MacKenzie is the only person that I trust with my hair! Have not had anyone else here do my hair, but have had other salons do my hair for special discounted prices & since recently moving an hour away, and nobody, no place & no stylist or salon can compare! And let me just add how incredibly particular I am with my hair! Other salons have passed me down to 3 different stylists! (Le Blanc Salon on Washington Street; because they did not want to deal with my high demands, hair standards, & difficult, thick hair!) A million & one stars for this place! MacKenzie = True hair doctor & hair guru! Go here once & you will always return! Have box colored my hair before plenty of times thinking I could do things by myself for cheap, and she has fixed every possible type of hair mess possible! Even when I cut my hair off into a mullet, almost! Lol, literally, put them to the test & you will be surprised, thinking you just left through a magic transformation teleport. Lol. No other place compares & worth every penny! That’s coming from a major penny pincher, too! xX

I had my first experience with Salon Matos yesterday. I am so excited to say that after ten months of living in Houston, I’ve finally found a place to get my hair done! Let me start by saying my expectations for my hair are really really high. A native of New Orleans, I saw the same hair dresser for ten years, and I have not had great luck here in Houston on finding exactly what I want. This all changed when I found Salon Matos and saw St3ven. He is fantastic! He got my hair the exact shade of red I wanted and spent an immense amount of time on me, making sure I liked it and felt welcome.
I will be recommending him to everyone I meet here in Houston. Amazing cut, as well!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about this place! Super professional and always a great job! Love Audra! She’s the BEST!

ONE WORD CALL STEVEN the POST-​APOCALYPTIC GENIUS
There is no one in The Woodlands area that does a true 20’s 30’s men and womens cut! I’m not about to go all the way to Montroes to get a cut. I found a dude by the name of!! STEVEN!!! that is by far the best men’s modern 20’s 30’s stylist. Every time hes done with me I have this dope hipster cut looking like I’m on the set of Mad Men or Boardwalk Empire! If your trying to get dope fresh cut call em up only 30 $ worth is!

All of these reviews are old. To get the best reviews and most current 300+ go to DEMANDFORCE and see the difference. Unilocal needs to update its business.

I went to Salon Matos on 4÷19÷13 for a haircut. I’m giving two stars because my haircut was fine but I had an issue that arose during my appointment that I wanted to talk to the manager about. I figured that a Paul Mitchell salon would take care of it’s clients because I’ve always had good luck at all Paul Mitchell establishments. After calling three times and leaving messages with the front desk staff I finally received a call back from the owner. I missed the call, but called him back within 3 minutes. I was told that he just walked out the door. I called a few times after that and had no luck talking with him. Finally I sent an email, at the advice of the front desk, to the owner, which to this day, has not been returned. Houston is a big city, you can go get a good haircut just about anywhere, but if you’re looking for customer service and being a valued customer, don’t go to Salon Matos. They’ve made it clear that they don’t respect their clients, nor care about their concerns. I won’t be going here again, and I’ll make sure no one I know does either.

I absolutely love my hair every time I leave this salon. The staff is highly skilled, friendly, funky, and artistic. I usually have my hair colored, highlighted, cut, and styled and it is always a welcomed transformation. The top stylists will cost you, but, they are worth every penny. David Lowry is a hair genius — just give him a few ideas and let him do his thing! I love this place!

My stylist is Audra & I like how she can combine colors to compliment the season. So far I have come for my fall/​winter look. I get color & cut. Staff is nice.

Seemed like a nice place but I felt like there was a mixup with my appointment or something. I was ignored and made to wait for a long time several times throughout. Good thing it was just for a haircut. I won’t be going back. I even sent the management an email about my bad experience, thinking it might have been a fluke and I never heard back from them.

I’ve known Sandy and Rosie for several years now and I feel like they run a first class operation in everything they do. The salon is beautiful and well run and the stylists are extremely well trained. You can’t go wrong by stopping in!

Salon Matos is by far the best salon I’ve ever been to! They have the best service and will do whatever they can to make you happy. Ask for Nicole when you go!!! She does an amazing job and is so friendly! Once you go to Salon Matos, you’ll never want to go to another salon again!!! Make an appointment stat! Your hair depends on it!

It’s expensive but worth it. Only thing I did not like was they kept trying to sell me Paul Mitchell products.

I have been going to this salon for over 8 years, and every time I go in, I am blown away by the amazing service. If you have ever seen the Bravo TV show «Tabitha’s Salon Take Over», you will agree that Matos should be a model for all other salons. Tabitha should take «challenged» salon staff members to visit Matos, so they can seriously learn from the best.
Appointment:
My haircuts are usually not planned, and I tend to be impulsive when I decide I need a cut. I usually just call about 10 minutes before I want a haircut, so I just ask for whoever is available, as I trust that anyone that Matos allows to cut will be really well trained. If there is a special stylist you want, you should definitely make an appointment.
Enter:
Upon entering, you are greeted by the front desk, told about how long it will take (if at all), and offered a beverage.
Shampoo:
MY FAVORITE PART! They have a magical pagoda room where you have dimmed lights, soft music, and a relaxing head and neck massage during the rinses. I love the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree line that they use, because it makes your scalp tingle for hours after leaving the salon.
Cutting:
All of the stylists are up to date on the latest trends and techniques, and I love watching their scissor action. I usually tell them everything I love/​hate about my hair and how I want as much volume as possible. The stylists are skilled with both scissors and razors, so if you have a preference, let them know.
Blow Drying:
Matos will always make sure you leave the salon looking your best. If you have a special event, make sure you schedule your cut on that day so you can walk out with a magical blow-​out. On occasion, I will just schedule a blow-​out for ~$ 25, because I know that they will do it much better than I could ever do for myself. I also love that when I ask, the stylists are really good about giving me tips on how to attempt to style my hair myself.
Color/​Coats:
If you want any type of color service, MATOS is the place. I have watched dozens of friends get amazing highlight jobs, and they swear by the Matos color team. I personally don’t color my hair, but I do on occasion get a «shine coat», which is ~$ 15 and adds an amazing shine to my hair and maintains the health of my strands.
Hygiene:
Matos lives by cleanliness. This salon is the ONLY salon I have ever been to that wraps each and every brush in saran wrap after cleaning it. Once you sit in the chair, they will unwrap a freshly cleaned brush just for your service.
Up-Do’s:
Venus is without a doubt, my favorite person for up-do’s. She is a genius and seriously worth her skilled rate (~$ 100).

Salon Matos.
An exclusive Paul Mitchell Focus Salon in Houston, TX.
+shampoos are THE BOMB! it’s really relaxing.
+stylists personalize your haircut!
— Ivis isn’t there anymore. I was really bummed about this but luckily a fellow Unilocaler messaged me and informed that he is now at Tuscany salon on Louetta. Not too far. I’ve had other stylists work my hair but they werent as genuine and didnt make me feel like they really care. She usually spoke to other hairstylists or clients next to her. boo.

I have been going to this Hair Salon for the past 4 years to the same stylist. Jolie is amazing! My mom likes to get her hair cut by Ivis who is awesome. I always get complimented and people always asks me where I get my haircut. My friend’s tend to cringe whenever I tell them how much I pay and tip. The price is a bit steep, but I look at a haircut as an investment. You pay for quality and service!
That’s what Salon Matos does… everyone is helpful and has complimentary drinks like cucumber water, wine, or coffee. A wide array of reading materials. The shampoo room is relaxing because they use Paul Mitchell Tea Tree products that makes your head feel tingly and refreshed. I need a haircut now.
