I moved to Houston a couple months ago and was having a heart attack over finding a new salon. After reading the reviews on here, I decided that I should give it a go. Let me tell you Michelle is AMAZING! She did my blonde highlights perfectly! I spent some time in Miami, and I didn't think it would be possible to find someone better than my person I went to there for 5 years. However, I did, This place is awesome! They are not the cheap mall version. But I promise you will walk out feeling like a million $$$. I have even been trying to learn how to do some braiding in my hair. After my appointment Michelle taught me on the creepy mannequin head how to do a dutch braid, and now I have been able to braid my own hair for the first time ever with her help! If you want high end color and style, then you won't be disappointed. Thanks for making me feel and look gorgeous! read more

I should of wrote this review a long time ago... I guess in my mind I wanted to be sure this salon isn't to good to be true! A little bit of background I'm a bi-racial black woman with a Soft hair pattern. It is incredibly hard to find a stylist that can cut and color my hair w/o cutting to short. When I heard of Salon 2 Dye 4 naturally I looked them ... When I saw the decor ( that by itself had me sold lol) it was so beautiful!..... The stylist have to be the most friendly, welcoming, educated, supportive and loving people I've ever met! They support any decision you have about your hair and they also educate you on your hair! I had Chandra when I tell you this stylist has talent.... She has TALENT!!! Omg!!! I have a pixie hair cut...She make me feel so comfortable, beautiful, and most important SEXY! She teaches me new ways to style my hair at home, and let me tell you I totally suck at doing but with the cut she makes it easy to keep up with! the cut is always amazing! She's the only stylist I've ever had in my life that I'll allow to do what she wants to do!!! Plus her style is super edgy....KC the owner whether he as a client or not he'll introduce himself compliment you... He makes you feel like family!! If your wanting a salon that has class, treats you like your pure royalty and goes out of the way to be sure your happy will ALL there services then Salon 2 dye 4 definitely it!! read more

See all

So, I am new in town and really needed my hair done. I've been getting my hair high lighted for 15 years, since the 7th grade. So I know how it's done, the cost and the time it should take, right? A few friends told me Salon 2 dye 4 was good, so I called asked how much, the receptionist was sweet, nice, and told me, it's hard to say over the phone, but for full highlights about $165- to maybe 230 at most! Okay well, that's about $100 more than Im used to, but again I'm new in town, and that may be normal here, $200, I can do that. I get there, and this cute girl, no more than 25 comes up and we talk about what I want done to my hair. I got to the SALON at 1:00 and did not walk out until 5:51 in an hurry and agitated about the TIME & COST$$$$$. I had to rush out to pick up my fur baby at the vet! Which closes at 6:00. It took Courtney almost 5 hours to HIGHLIGHT my hair, little annoyed, but if she does good highlights then its all good right? It normally takes no more than 2&1/2 hours for my hair. That is, highlight, cut, & blow dry! 2 &1/2 hours at most, NOT, 5 hours. So, as she is finally drying my hair, I'm telling her, I really don't mean to rush, but the vet closes at 6, I really need to GO NOW! She replied, okay almost done! um you said that an hour and a half ago when the vet called and asked how much longer are you going to be? So, I asked, can you give my cc to the receptionist soI can bolt out of here when your FINALlY done! She went and talk to the receptionist for 10 mins, really? All I asked for was Highlights, bangs trimmed and blow dry, Not a hair cut, not a style, just simple highlights, bangs trim and dry my HAIR! That's all!!! This was at 5:40, um I needed to leave 20 minuets ago!!!!!! I'm flustered, late, and really really just need to get out of there!! The receptionist asked 15, 20, or 25% tip? I said 20%, not too seem cheap!!! I wanted to only do 15, cuz I was sooooooooooo exasperated it took her so long, and that she left the salon to go pick up her friend about 4:00, so he could use her car to go to work or something? I AM a paying client who repeatedly mentioned I need to be out of here at 5 the latest!!! My fur baby is sick and at the vet, so I need to get her!!!!! Yes, she left the salon, really who does that right??? Any how, thats not the worst part, they gave me my receipt and my CC was charged $553.00!!! What the? Really $553.00 for HIGHLIGHTs by a nice, but young hair dresser who has been licensed to do hair for 6 or 8 years!! My normal, awesome, miss her so much hair dresser has been doing hair for 20 years, she is a master colorist, taught at one of the schools this girl went to and has never charged me more than $130!!! I will add, its only because I have gone to her for 7 years, and have brought her so many clients! Her normal cost $230, for my hair. I was charged $553.00!! I freaked, I asked what theeeee $553.00?? Really? She said, well I did not charge you for the hair cut? You trimmed my bangs! Yes, but I put in 3 colors of highlights. My hair dresser at home uses the exact same products this girl used, Wella!! Same color, it took her twice the time to do my hair, over 5 hours, and she charged me $553.000! She is not Casey, she has only been here for 6 weeks and she has 6 or 8 years, not 10, not 15, not 20! I'm sorry, but I do not live in New York or Hollywood, I live in TEXAS! I have never once in my life or will I ever pay that kind of money for hair!!! Yes hair! If I made that kind of money to spend on my hair I would go to a celebrity stylist!! I called my hair dresser in FW, asked her if was over reacting? She freaked to! No, $553.0000 what, this girl ripped you off!!! Need less to say the color looks great, but not $553.000 great!! I'm am not a cheap person in any way, but I will never pay $553.00 for hair to be highlighted every 8 weeks!! I did not have time argue the bill, cuz I had 9 minutes to get to the vet, to go pick up my fur baby. So, bottom line, Courtney ripped me offff, took almost 6 hours , did not care i had to go get my dog, I called a few salons in the area that were about the same scale as 2 Dye 4 to see if this was normal! Every Salon said about 200! Now I'm infuriated, I feel completely an utter taken advantage of, since I'm new in town. I called them the next day to let them know how I feel, all they said was, we can give you the break down of all cost! So, they charged $195 for them doing the work and 85 each for the dyes used and 45.00 for the drying! What?? Okay let me get this straight!!! Your telling I was charged $195.00 for Labor, $85 each for supplies and $45 for hot Hair!!!! WOW, are you kidding me??? All, they said I'm sorry you unhappy about the cost, but that is what we charge.. I asked do you remembering me calling and asking for the prices, yes I do! Is there a reason you did not mention the 195 was only for labor? All she said was sorry. I will NEVER go back!!! They ripped me off completely! What a Joke! Never again! read more

I called Salon2Dye4 last Thursday, November 6th, to make an appointment for Casey to color my hair after a friend referred me. I am not sure who took my call that day but I informed them that I needed the first available appointment to have a color correction from a bad service that I got from a previous salon and that I had long, curly, and thick hair so it would take a decent amount of time. She asked me for my phone number and said she would call me back. I received a call back about 10 minutes later and we confirmed an appointment for the following Thursday which would have been tomorrow, and she said that she would also put me on a list to be called if something sooner became available being that my hair was in a terrible state. I called again today to confirm my appointment for tomorrow, 11/12/14, and I spoke with Cindy. She looked in the system and told me that there was no appointment scheduled for me. I of course was upset because not only was I waiting for a correction, but I also have a very important event that is taking place this weekend, and I also work as a celebrity fashion stylist. If they were not going to ensure my appointment, I could have booked with another stylist at another salon. I cancelled a Tuesday appointment with Blue Mambo which would have gotten me taken care of sooner than Thursday, but I didn't mind because I really wanted my hair done by Casey, as I have been looking for a "salon home" since I moved back here to Houston, and I was sure that Casey would be become my regular stylist.. Furthermore, Cindy was very rude. She told me that there was not another appointment available for Casey for color and highlights until mid January! Even though i was very disappointed and upset, i told her to go ahead and schedule me for January. Instead, she began insisting that she spoke with me on a Saturday instead of Thursday which I did not see the relevance in arguing that point. Although the time we spoke, that they called me back, is registered in my call logs. I asked to speak to Casey and her exact words were "NO! I am the manager here, I make the appointments, you will talk to me. And I will not take any appointments for you!". Then she hung up in my face. It doesn't matter how good the stylists are if the person you speak to before getting in the doors of the salon is inefficient, rude, and discourteous. It really is disappointing being that I am sure both Casey and Chandra are great at what they do. From what my friend tells me, Cindy is the newest stylist at Salon2Dye4 and has been rude to her on occasion as well. It's not her establishment, I was not her client, and she should really be ashamed of handling someone else's business this way and misrepresenting their company. I've never experienced customer service so terrible from a salon. read more

I found Casey about 3 1/2 years ago. He is my hair's guardian angel. I came to Casey after fighting breast cancer. My hair had begun to grow back, but lacked the sparkle and style I needed to give me confidence. Casey found that vivacity for me. Prior to meeting Casey, I was always a blonde. Casey, convinced me to take a chance and go red. I have never looked back. When he opened up his new salon, I immediately followed him and booked my appointment. No other person has or will touch my hair again. He is a master with color and cuts. He knows exactly what shades will compliment me. He takes the time to really examine my skin tone hues and eye coloring. He then crafts my shade of red to match it. My skin actually seems like it glows, after I leave his chair. I If I had a dollar for every compliment I got from a stranger about my hair, I could retire a wealthy woman. Casey is so personable. I don't feel like I am a customer. I feel like I am a friend. I cannot suggest enough that others should take advantage of his gifts. If you are on the lookout for a stylist who listens, is fun to talk to, and knows hair, look no further. Salon2dye4 is the spot you have been searching for. read more

This salon is truly wonderful! Casey is incredible. They are all so personable and they are truly the best colorists and stylists I've ever had! Every time I leave I feel like I am in a Garnier fructisse commercial, swishing my flowing locks while oohing, aahing and giggling :) read more

I haven't been to the salon, but my stylist from Connecticut has relocated and is now working with Casey. Her name is Courtney and I'll really miss her. Took me from long to short - always a stressful decision - and talked me through every step of the cut explaining how I would need to manage my new style. Best of all was her color! My hair "oranges" easily and I never had to worry about that with Court doing my color. Best of luck Courtney all your loyal clients will miss you.a read more

My partner and I just had our hair done for the first time with Casey, assisted by Cindy. Our experience was fantastic. Casey first did an in-depth consultation individually with us. He critically evaluated our hair style and color and asked for our input into our ultimate hopeful hair outcomes. He took us through a step wise process toward achieving color and design. Hands down, the best Master colorist we have experienced. One of us had dark brown hair with highlights, that we're in distress. The other had predominantly grey hair with medium brown color. Both of us were transformed dramatically with outstanding color with tremendous shine that blends perfectly with our complexions. We were extremely please and look forward to our return visits! read more

I have been going to Casey for over 2 years now. He is the only person I trust with my hair! He took me from a solid yellowish blonde to a multi dimensional cool blonde. He is a fantastic colorist and knows how to take care of us blondes! About a year ago, I decided to go dark for the first time in my life. Went from a light ash blonde to a dark auburn. It was so dramatic and different. I loved it! Received many compliments and had fun playing with my color to get back to the blonde I am without damaging my hair. I trust Casey 100% with my hair and love that I hardly have to explain what it is I like or want to change. He almost always anticipates my needs and has great suggestions on what to try or change. He is very current and up to date with styles and techniques when styling, coloring, or cutting. read more

I've lived in Houston for a year and have had mixed success with other salons. I went to Chandra today at 2DYE4 and it was clear from the start that she was listening and understood what I wanted. I haven't had a haircut this good in years. The front desk was extraordinarily kind and patient with working around my schedule. This is a must repeat salon. read more

I don't usually write reviews but Chandra gave me the best haircut and blow out I have ever had in my life! Everyone is very nice and friendly, the service is impeccable and the quality of the work is just fantastic. You can tell that they know what they are doing and that they take serious pride in their work. It was a great experience overall and I will definitely go back. read more

Going in to see Casey, I took a look at the reviews and knew he probably knew what he was doing with blonde highlights but he turned out to be so much more than that. The way he takes time with each client and makes them feel like they are truly guests. He also educates on after care. Coming from the 'burbs, I needed to find someone who understood blondes, dimension, and matching color to lifestyle and skin tone. Casey knows all of this and more. There was no pretention in this salon as you find at others. Everyone was super down-to-earth and very nice. I cannot rave enough about my experience and finally going home to say I LOVE MY COLOR! Already tons of compliments and its only been a week! Thank you Casey!! The 50 minute drive to see you every 6-8 weeks will be WELL WORTH IT! I love the story of how the salon came to be a reality for Casey as well - more reason to support small business owners! And, no I am not a friend or relative of Casey's or the salon. I met him for the very first time on my visit. I feel its so important to leave a review as I studied them for a while to make sure I knew as much about the salon and Casey as I could. read more

Michelle has been such a great stylist. I wanted to go lighter with highlights but was worried my hair would be too damaged afterword. Michelle assured me that she wouldn't do anything that would effect the healthiness of my hair and did exactly what she said. My hair has never been better and the blonde highlights are phenomenal. Thank goodness I found my stylist, Michelle read more

Both my daughters have gone to Casey for about 3 years and they always looked amazing when he did their hair. It was awkward to go to him a the old place since I started with another person and now I wish I had just been awkward! I went to the new salon and walked out looking better than I have in years. This guy knows what he is talking about! I have never had anyone go through such a thorough consultation prior to doing anything to my hair. He cares and you feel like he cares! I'm so happy he opened his own shop and I wish him and Jerrid all the luck in the world. You gotta' let this guy do your hair! read more

I just lost my stylist of 5 years to this place! She is fantastic and always comes through when i'm looking to mix it up. Courtney Eisner understands colors and cuts so when I come to her with an idea she knows how to personalize to fit ME! She was the first one to ever color my hair because I had always been afraid I would look ridiculous but with Courtney and all the rapport and trust I had with her I became open to taking more risks which always pan out, especially since she is wonderful at telling me how to keep my healthy and looking good between visits. I hope Salon2DYE4 realizes the talent the have just acquired!!!!!!!! read more

I've had Courtney Eisner cut my hair for a couple years. Always cut the way I like it. She knows how to cut it short like I prefer but not too short in areas that cause problems if it's too short. Courtney is always fun and pleasant......and cute to boot. read more

I recently had my hair colored by Chandra. My hair is naturally very frizzy and had alot of damage from a previous experience. Chandra did a very good consultation and worked with my eyes and skin to give me an awesome color without ammonia that was darker and richer. I absolutely love the color and the shine, and my hair feels incredibly healthy. The salon is very inviting and i felt very comfortable there. My haircut and style was also very nice and polished. I will definitely be going back in 6 weeks. read more

Chandra is amazing! She took such good care of me and you could actually tell she cared about my hair. She gave me truth even if it wasn't something I wanted to hear. She told me what she could do for now and what she could do when my hair grew out some. I will always go to her from now on! Thank you!!!! read more

My rating reflects 3 things: 1) drastic haircut that is exactly the OPPOSITE of what we talked about, 2) a terrible haircut (even if I had asked for it, which I did not), and 3) shockingly unprofessional customer service. I went to Casey three weeks ago based on the reviews here. I needed my roots dyed and was tired of driving so far to my regular place. My hair was long - about mid-way down my back and almost all one length. I explained the following: I have thick wavy hair with a lot of volume; I was growing out a couple wispy ends and heavy use of thinning shears from several years ago (almost all grown out); I wanted to keep the length; and I had stopped heat-treating a year ago because it was too damaging. Casey said the magic words: "so you want blunt ends". Which is exactly what I wanted: long with blunt ends. 2.5 hours later after coloring, he dried my hair straight, turned me away from the mirror so I could not see, and chopped my hair to pieces. His salon was dark and I was in a hurry to get home to my kids (after 7 pm) so I could not look very closely but I said "I was not expecting my hair to look so different". I paid $170 plus $20 tip for single process roots-dye and haircut. When I got home and saw it in the light I was devastated. He cut the front into an ear-length bob and put heavy, uneven, choppy layers throughout the back (the shortest strands are only about 5" long from the top of my head). There is no blending between the front and the back. The front looks like Christopher Columbus and the back (since I do not blow dry or straighten my hair) is a poofy rat's nest with "stringlets" (more dreaded wisps) hanging out the bottom. I emailed Casey the next morning (Wed) saying I was alarmed about the cut and called him all week but he did not return my call. On Saturday I had to drive to Austin for a wedding so sent an email telling him I am surprised he has not called me back yet knowing I am devastated about my hair, and that I would like a refund (originally I had hoped he could try to fix it before the wedding). He emails back: "You purchased none of the products that I recommended!! Did you forget about the hair loss condition that I spent a lot of time educating you about? Your ends will never be blunt because of this condition." And continued to insult me instead of addressing my complaint - that my cut was nothing like what we had talked about. There was not one consolation such as "I am sorry you do not like your hair cut". My friend in Austin got me in to her friend's high-end salon (stylists at this place trained in NYC, Hollywood, London, and Paris). My master stylist (who had worked at Curly Girl salon in NYC) was shocked that anyone would do something like this without consulting with me first and said that it was a terrible thing to do to my texture of hair. As for Casey's big "education" on thinning hair (primarily him trying to sell me a $50 Nioxin treatment): she said I have thicker hair than 90% of the people she sees. She said long hair with my texture would not fall from the head until you wash/brush it. Since I never brush my hair (too poofy) and only wash it every 3rd day, the majority of natural shedding would occur at washing. My individual strands are thick so even a normal amount of 50-100 strands of 18-24" hair would seem like a handful in the drain. Since this has been the case all my life and she did not see any signs of thinning (other than the hack job done by Casey), she called it a bad diagnosis. She felt so bad she didn't charge me for the cut (couldn't do much) - just the wash/style. Here are more details on the day after I paid $190 to Casey (of which he did not refund one penny): nobody at work could look me in the eye (and I had 2 meetings and a baby shower - so there was plenty of opportunity). Finally at the end of the day, a friend said "OK, what did you do to your hair? From the front I thought you got a bob but the back is still long. You should just cut it off." Another friend offered to bring me her hair-grow vitamins. My kids said it looks like a mullet. My husband called his hair stylist to ask her if she could fix it. One friend jokingly asked if my husband had cut my hair to get back at me for something! When you pay $190 to have your hair done, you want compliments not insults. Everyone I know is upset for me and shocked I have not received a refund. Casey did finally call me back - on Saturday evening when I was at the wedding. His message only said "This is Casey and this is the last time I am going to call you". Is that what you would expect from the owner of the salon and the person responsible for wrecking your hair? It will take me years to recover from this horrendous cut but there was not a hint of remorse or any attempt at consolation from Casey. read more

Casey was recommended to me 5 years ago when I first moved to Houston & was looking for someone who could deal with my very very naturally curly hair. My hair was wrecked from years of bleach & dye & was far from my crowning glory ! Casey took the time to work with my skin coloring & eyes and figure out what would make them sparkle. He went through an exhaustive process to get my hair healthy & now I am a very happy & proud red head ! My hair has never looked better. Casey takes the time to get to know his clients & their personalities and makes their hair an expression of them. My cut is wonderful and works whether I wear my hair curly or straight. I would never dream of letting anyone else touch my hair again ! The new salon is wonderful, the ambience is great, relaxed & friendly :) Casey & Jerrid are two of the most talented people I have met. They have a passion for what they do and it shows. I would recommend them to anyone. Book an appointment with them today, I promise you won't regret it ! read more
