Stylists.
Hi! I’m Melyssa and I have been doing hair for 12 years. Originally trained with aveda and worked for an aveda salon for seven years. After dreaming of owning my own salon & being my own boss, I took the leap & here I am now, making dreams a reality with shade the salon. I am a wife & boy mama to the sweetest little babe and love spending all the time I get with my little family! A few things I love are being crafty & making all things diy, traveling, dancing to Taylor Swift, cheese and more cheese, and I may have a shopping addiction! I specialize in tape in extensions, bright beachy blondes, lived in balayage & the perfect effortless curls! Being a hair stylist is so much more to me than just doing pretty hair, the confidence my clients beam after sitting in my chair is what gives me all the magic my job has to offer. It’s more than just hair, it’s a feeling!
Hello, I’m Angelica! I am a full time hair lover & have been in the industry for nine years! Balayage, blonding, hair painting, color melting, baby lights and teased foiling is my thing. I love enhancing each guest with a custom look that they can wear seamlessly for months. I’m always furthering my education by attending classes throughout the year learning new techniques and it has led me into styling hair for New York Fashion Week. What I love most about being a hairstylist is having the ability to make someone feel confident and beautiful.

SALON POLICY.
CANCELLATIONs
All bookings are confirmed via email and text. Please allow 48 hours notice for all cancellations and changes to appointments. Multiple cancellations outside of the 48 hour window or ‘No Shows’ , may result in your credit card being charged. Cancellation fee being charged is at the stylist discretion and can be as high as the cost of the full appointment booked.
At Shade we are committed to accommodating all client booking needs, including those who may be on a wait list for an appointment. If we are given proper cancellation notice it allows us to fill your appointment time with another client who wants to get in.
We understand that Houston is unpredictable with traffic or late nights & sometimes things happen, and no one means to miss their appointment. So discretion is always used in these instances.
Adjustments post service
All stylists are trained to provide a lengthy and thorough consultation with every client prior to all chemical, cutting and styling appointments in order to guarantee that each client receives the amazing hair that they are dreaming of!
If there is a legitimate need to correct something that may have went wrong during your service and wasn't noticeable until you got home, the salon will make time for a complimentary correction within the same week of your appointment. No complimentary corrections will be booked after the week of your service has passed.
