How can it be that I'm the first person to review this place?!? I had to keep checking to make sure I was reviewing the right salon, because a find like this deserves some yelp-notification. My local stylist left town and after a couple of dreadful cuts, I started looking for a new salon and stylist. It's hard to start with a new salon & stylist. I was dreading the search. I'm a guy. I'm no hair expert & I don't know the technical jargon, so I'm not good at describing what I want. I'm also follicularly challenged (damn you x-chromosome). It's tough to find a decent hair salon that not only cuts, but also styles my hair so that I don't leave as Bad Hair Day Champion. Basically, I'm not going to go to barber shops or mall salons or any sports-themed salon (nothing wrong with them, just not for me). So how often do I ever feel excited about a haircut? Almost never. Imagine then how pleased I was to stumble upon 901 Salon & Boutique. It's in a house on W. Gray just East of Montrose. I don't usually care how fancy a salon is, but I like to see a space that the owner takes care of and looks like they've put thought and pride into it. This place is clean, bright, stylish and airy. The ambiance of the salon is very friendly and welcoming. It's also part jewelry boutique (more about that later). So I made an appointment, showed up, sat in the chair, and told Steve (the owner and stylist) to do whatever he thought would look good. Well, he proceeded to give me one of the best haircuts I've had in a long time. There was no tedious small talk, no "oops" moments, no inept directions required from me. He just did it, and did it well. It's unfortunate that a very short cut makes me look like I'm bald instead of merely going bald (yes, my vanity says that there is a difference!). Steve knew just how to cut my hair to give it a great shape that's both looks good and is manageable. He gave me an awesome cut that looks good in the morning with minimal effort, or can, with a bit of product, be fancied up for the evening. On the way out, my eyes strayed to the jewelry displays. I was in such a good mood from my reflection that I actually took the time to look at the necklaces (very unique - more jewelry store like and not your typical "salon" necklaces) and picked one up for my girlfriend. To say it was the best night of life ... well, not quite, but she was thrilled, and I was happy. I've been back there and have never left disappointed. I even had my girlfriend start going. She sees Lilly (I think Steve's sister) and gets her hair cut, styled, colored & highlighted - all of it. She loves it and especially likes the price and value. read more

I would like to say thank you to this place again. I made the right decision to let them did my makeup and hair for Thai's new year beauty pageant at Thai temple. Steve is professional makeup artist, hairdresser and super friendly. He did very good job for me. I was extremely happy with my makeup and hair. And also I won a beauty pageant. Thanks a lot!!!! read more

Best cut that I have had in Houston, especially for the price. I have fine hair that requires frequent cuts & am tired of spending $ 65-80 dollars for a simple cut. This place is friendly, easy to get to, no nonsense , excellent cut! read more

901 Salon & Boutique - My hair is fine and had to be cut often, tired of paying a fortune for a classic bob... Cut. - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

Excellent! I really enjoyed my experience and the detail that Lily put into cutting my hair.

WOW Steve is REALLY GREAT! I have not been impressed much of hair-stylists in Houston even in several high-end salons bc to me they JUST don't have the skills or lazy. I'm very picky with my hair but I came here for the first time today due to one of my co-workers' recommendation and I am SO glad I came! I think I finally found my to-go salon. He's very diligent to the very detail and the result really speaks the effort he put in. My hair looks super polished and modern even though it's really short! I came home and it still looks great even after the workout. For the first time in a long time or ever, I have not been frustrated with the haircut after I came home. I'm feeling so peaceful. Nothing about my hair is irritating me. Also he's super friendly and nice, and price is really fair too. Result looks much better than places I went that charged me much higher. I'm staying here, not going anywhere else. read more

Okay so as a 29 year old male going to this place I was very unsure on how any Salon would do a good job on Mens Hair, respectively. But they REALLY know what they're doing! My perm went from decent to amazing and everything as it should be! They are very kind and attentive and I'm left impressed! Will be back again! read more

Strange main photo for business but absolutely amazing haircuts at reasonable prices. Been here a few times now. I enjoy conversations with the Thai siblings and Steve knows how to handle Asian hair. read more

Wow! What a wonderful experience and hair cut! They were incredibly accommodating to my sister and I and they know EXACTLY how to give you what you want. I had gotten a bad hair cut a month prior and Steve really fixed it up and made it so much better. If you want the best haircut of your life- check this place out!! read more

901 Salon & Boutique - Love my new hair cut and my new stylist!!! - Hair Salons Near Me - Houston, Texas

I absolutely loved me service today. I got a voucher off the living social app for a cut and conditioning treatment and it was worth it. It was only $30! Its pretty easy to find, no difficulty there. Lily did my service and it was quick and relaxing from beginning to end. I believe it's her and her brother that run the salon. As soon as I walked in they got me started they did let me know before hand that there would be extra charge since my hair was long and I was fine with that. My hair is amazing it's silky and the layer she did is awesome. I will be returning! She said she can help me even out the at home dye job I did on myself. Thank goodness for 901. read more

Most amazing hair cut & color by Lily! So very nice, & she understood my hair! Lily & Steve are very aware of COVID - taking every precaution- requiring masks & wearing them too. I am so very happy that my cut & color look so natural. Lily really knows what she is doing. My hair feels & looks AMAZING!!! Definitely recommend them for the quality, professionalism & price! :) read more

Great hair cut. The best that I have had in Houston and I have been here for over 30 years. A tremendous amount of thought goes into how my hair is cut. I trust Steve completely to give me a cut that works for my lifestyle. And as the cut grows out, it is still manageable and looks stylish. I applaud 901 Salon and Boutique for it's graciousness and the excellent attention and considerations given to me and my hair. read more

Spent a lot of time on my cut to give me exactly what I wanted - layers and side bangs. Service was great - I'd come back again.

I've been one of Steve's clients for 2 yrs now. Whether I needed a trim or major cut, Steve always gave me exactly what I was looking for. But being a bachelor, I liked Steve's style suggestions. read more

This salon is incredible! Steve and Lilly have done my engagement photo hairstyle, haircuts, and color and they are just amazing! Steve knows exactly how to do my hair for it to look amazing! The salon is also gorgeous and super fancy! :). Everyone should come here! read more

I went to Steve several times for my mid length haircut and were fine most of the time. Till the last time I told myself I won't go back again. I asked for a different style of short hair which I showed him pictures I like and he was ok with it. It turned out to be the same cut he did for me before, just more shorter and bang. I looked much much older with a very bulky hair in the side and flat at the back. I had to tell him I was not confident to leave the shop like this do please fix it. He did what I said but didn't offer any suggestions to improve. Of course he wanted to be done with me because another customer was waiting. Even Steve himself and Lily were not dared to say I wear a nice haircut. They looked at me with a sad eyes and kept saying it was ok. I was very disappointed. He looks professional in what he is doing but only at his level. If you compared him with other hairdresser, you may find the truths. I would have given 4-5 stars if Steve is able to stay consistently with his technique especially for short hair and was willing to go outside of his comfort zone. Other than that, he and Lily are nice friendly people. read more

I've been going to Steve for haircuts for about 8 years now. He is not only an amazing hair stylist, he is a great person too. He takes time with your hair to make sure your are fully satisfied and that he is fully satisfied to make sure every detail is spot on. I appreciate this fact b/c you know you are getting your money's worth. I'm about 20 minutes out from where he is located and there are tons of other hair salons that are a lot closer, but I will not go anywhere else. His sister Lily also works there and she is just as nice as Steve and she does a lot of the coloring I believe. They work amazing together as a team. You need to have a personal relationship with a hair stylist that you trust b/c hair grows all the time. Give Steve a try and you will not be disappointed! read more
