Visible Changes-Almeda Mall

Late review. About three weeks ago, I searched for a good hair stylist. I came across this location from google reviews and their Facebook page. I made an appointment with Liz and she was fantastic. Liz listened and knew exactly how I wanted my hair. She was so sweet and made great conversation! Not only was she nice but the girls in the front desk were nice also! I will return when I need a fresh haircut!
Also, I came to this location because the price. I went with a girl with 6 years experience and paid $ 30. Different location same experience was charging me $ 55.

So… Today was my first day going to this Visible Changes location only reason why I decided to come to this location was because it was a lot closer to home & plus my Hairstylist from V. C Galleria no longer works there, but that’s okay cause today I got the pleasure to meet Liz, she was such a sweetheart. She welcomed me like if I had been her client for years & that’s something I really liked about her. She also cut my hair exactly how I wanted it & showed me some new things to use in my hair to keep it healthy which I am very thankful for :)

I previously had a wonderful experience with Kim for a haircut. I’d recommend her to anyone.
Recently, I wanted to get ombré done (I’d never colored my hair before). Since I couldn’t go when Kim was available, I tried a new stylist. I showed Alyssa a few pictures of how I wanted it done, and she said that she could do it, no problem.​
I asked her to leave my hair dark brown at the top, with caramel blended into the middle and a little blonder at the ends​ (like in the pics I showed her)​. What I was left with was grayish-​blonde highlights throughout. When I voiced my discontent with the results, she seemed upset​but was nice about it and made an attempt to fix my hair. The color I ended up with was slightly darker, but still nowhere near «caramel». I had already been there for over 3.5 hours, so I decided that that was the best my hair was going to look and left.
My hair looks fine. Alyssa blended the color very well even though it isn’t what I wanted. I left a​nice tip​and thanked her​.​Then I went about my day running errands and went to dinner with my boyfriend when I realized there was​bleach all down the back of my shirt.​(​Maybe that was my fault though​–​I was wearing a robe, but one of the ladies said I didn’t need to remove my shirt if I didn’t want to. So I didn’t. But I should have.​)​My hair is also extremely​fried. She told me there would be some damage, but I didn’t think there’d be this much (especially since I got a trim after the highlights).
So I’m out 300 bucks​. The people here are very nice and attentive, but​I​think I could have gotten​exactly​what I wanted at a different salon for much less​. Y​ou live and you learn, I guess.

Two stars only because they were nice and I feel that they really did try their best. However it was mentioned that what I asked for «wasn’t easy». I usually go to another salon, (who would have been able to do it), but this time they were booked and I wanted my hair done before the following week (I should have just waited) I ended up spending more money and damaging my hair. I hate the end result. They offered for me to go back so they can change/​fix it within a week. I’m really not too sure if I want my hair damaged more, but I don’t want to waste more money but getting it fixed else where. Still deciding what to do.

I start going to this location because of the first time experience I had with MEREM. She stopped working there but I continued to go. Every time I went I realized that the whole staff their is always serious and somewhat rude.
Today I got a haircut from a junior stylist and she was cutting my hair so fast! I was getting nervous because I am picky about my haircut, she was not asking me any questions and snipping away as if she was in an extreme hurry! Another thing I did not like was that her eyes were always wandering elsewhere, and she was not paying attention to what she was doing, as a hairstylist that is not the way to be!
I think I will go somewhere else next time.

Two stars only because the Staff was friendly! Either than that, I had a horrible haircut done at Visible Changes Almeda — I brought In a picture of exactly what I wanted & left looking like a hot mess. Not even close to my style of choice. Left with uneven, unblended lopsided hair, will not be going back. I was assigned a «master stylist» so needless to say, I paid 49.00 for a haircut that looked like something I could have done at home. After my hair was styled, I looked like a had helmet hair. Absolutely not what I had pictured when I left my house.

I have to agree with other previous post. Kim is AMAZING! She is so sweet and talented and after many many bad haircuts due to other stylists not knowing how to deal with curly hair, Kim has been my hair doctor! I have never had a bad cut and she has been with me for a few years now as my hair continues to grow out. I too drive from Katy to Almeda Mall and it is always sooo worth it!

I have been going to this Visible Changes for 10 years now. I drive over an hour to see Mayra and Fabian. THE BEST STYLISTS EVER!!! Once I cheated and went somewhere closer. BIG mistake and now I know better. You will not be disappointed with Mayra or Fabian. The whole staff is amazing!

I’ve been going to this location for 6 years and will never stop.
I live an hour away, so that says a lot. The service is friendly from the front desk to the people shampooing to the stylists. I love the fact that I don’t have to rely on just one person to do my hair. I’m a mixed Black/​Hispanic chick with naturally hot mess curly hair (not the cute kind that curls into cute little ringlets, but the kind that does whatever it wants on the top and has a wavy pattern at the bottom) and I’ve had several people here do my hair perfectly.
Right now, I go to either Kim or Lori and I always leave satisfied. Both of them do color and style, so you don’t have to worry about tipping two different stylists. Try this place out once and you’ll become an addict. I go once a week and would definitely go more often if I actually lived around the area.

Always ask for Fabian! He is the best!!! I went there once a few years back and never stop going! Every time I go in I get exactly what I want! I even took my mommy & aunt, they loved they’re new hair style! They still go to him!!! So that is 3 very picky ladies loving Fabian’s work!
