Houston Beauty Salons & Services

A beauty salon is an establishment providing cosmetic services for both women and men. Salons feature and sell beauty products like shampoos, conditioners and styling products. The many beauty salons in the Houston Metropolitan area consist of nail salons, hair salons, barbershops and spas. Houston’s diverse blend of beauty salons ensures you will find a salon with the atmosphere and services you are looking for.

While nail and hair salons, barbershops and day spas offer specific treatments and services, beauty salons provide a general range of services related to beauty, skin health and relaxation. These services may range from tanning to facial treatments, body massage, hair removal, hair styling and a variety of other services designed to maintain beauty; restore healthy skin, nails and bodies; and enable you to feel your best.

The US Labor Department has estimated that the beauty and hair salon and service industry will grow 14% from 2006-2016. This is due in part to population growth, and also the growing demand for beauty and skin care treatments.

Houston boasts hundreds of beauty salons and spas. There are both privately owned and chain hair and nail salons serving the city, and neighborhoods from Downtown Houston to The Heights, Tanglewood to Montrose, Sugar Land to Rice Village and all across the Houston Metropolitan area.

All beauty salons in Houston are required to be licensed by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, or TDLR. The TDLR is the official licensing agency of the State, responsible for maintaining professional standards in 29 different types of business throughout Texas. According to their website, the TDLR is designed to “honor the public trust, ensure the public's safety and foster a fair and efficient regulatory environment.”
