Salon Strain

A Luxury meets Down to Earth boutique hair salon specializing in Balayage and highlights.

Dry Texture Spray is our best selling product and our personal fave. We like products that do not feel greasy or heavy. Dry Texture Spray is like if dry shampoo and hairspray had a baby. It absorbs oil and enhances volume. Spray directly at the root on clean and/or dirty hair. You're welcome:)

Lately I am loving highlights or balayage toned down to light brown or warm brown. For those who like to look brunette, but with dimension. Is your brown hair feeling a bit boring? Need to spice it up but don't want to be blonde? Let's talk!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

08/12/2024

Hi I'm Lisa and Id love to have you in my chair! We can talk about ALL the things and you'll leave feeling beautiful...how's that sound?​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Adding a glaze to your color appointment enhances shine and improves your hair's health. Ask us about the benefits of a glaze and be sure we know to add the extra time to your appointment if we need it. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Just two people who love each other and love doing hair.​​​​​​​​​Come see us!

Blast from the past, you can tell from the mask!​​​​​​​​​But another stunning example of warm, golden highlights.​​​​​​​​​Let's be real for a minute...
EVERYONE'S hair lifts warm...meaning that the when lightened (bleached) the natural undertone of the average human's hair is warm (red, copper, gold). If the hair is strong and healthy, we can lighten someone's hair pretty well and tone down the unwanted warmth. Toners are like stains and they DO wash out over time. So by the time you are ready for your next lightening service, your toner will have very likely washed out quite a bit if not completely. Just a lil hair 101.

For the prettiest, healthiest hair, opt for a trim every 3 months. The idea is, that you do not want your split ends to creep up too high. When that occurs, it will take more than a trim to eliminate them. So while trimming your hair does not make it grow faster, you will indeed enjoy longer healthier hair by removing the dead ends 3-4 times per year. You are certainly welcome to trim more often! Just be aware that more frequent trims can take away the growth you have been patiently waiting to achieve. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​photo credit

Just let us wash your hair:)​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​photo credit

Lisa's Signature Brick Layered Highlight. Each foil is placed to optimize that seamless growout. Over time, the hair gets blonder, but the root area stays natural enough to give that balayage effect. Questions? Text me anytime.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Our baby bear is growing up so fast! This pic is a lil older now, but I still had to share. Might be time for another session with our favorite business/personal photographer Laura ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

07/08/2024

Bright, shiny blonde perfect for Summer.

07/05/2024

Dry Texture Spray is our best selling product! Its like if dry shampoo and hairspray had a baby. Spray at the roots on clean and/or dirty hair for oil absorption and volumizing. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

07/03/2024

Soft, beautiful balayage that will grow out seamlessly for months. Yes please ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

You can't be married to someone who loves yoga and not pick it up too. In fact, I probably practice and stretch more than Lisa! Don't tell her I said that:)​​​​​​​​​Does your husband do yoga????​​​​​​​​​

06/28/2024

So often, clients express that they do not want gold or warmth in their hair...​​​​​​​​​But stylists know that warmth and gold reflects light more than any other tone. If it's not your thing, we totally get it...​​​​​​​​​but check out this healthy looking highlight/lowlight with mega shine! Something to think about for the Fall.

Did you know that I am certified to teach yoga??​​​​​​​​​I got my 200 hour certificate a million years ago and never taught, but have loved yoga and stretching for about 20 years now. ​​​​​​​​​I love doing yoga to Pink Floyd and my favorite pose is Janu Shirasasana or single leg stretch.
Are you a yoga enthusiast?

Can we all just agree that the shampoo is the best part? ​​​​​​​​

Hi I'm Dave:)​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I was born and raised in California and moved to The Woodlands when I was 12.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I played every sport imaginable from birth to high school graduation.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
After that I attended UTSA where I obtained my Bachelors in Fine Arts.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
I love drawing and painting. Creating is second nature to me.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Doing hair fits in so perfectly with who I am, because I am always visualizing shapes and color.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
When I am not in the salon I enjoy painting, drinking craft beer, watching old movies, exercising and doing yoga.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Spending time with my wife and daughter is my favorite thing to do...And I'd like to get them back out camping and road tripping soon as I've missed that very much since Jasmine came into our lives. I think she's ready now! ​​​​​​​​

My schedule tends to fill up pretty fast, but you never know...
I sometimes have little openings here and there!

Request an appointment and I'll see what I can do.
Even if its a few weeks out or next month...
I promise to do my best to make it worth the wait:)

We love the life we have created.

We live close to work.
Family is nearby to help us with our daughter.
Our clients feel like friends... they ARE our friends.
We have the BEST sales rep who keeps our shelves stocked (Michelle Desilva)

And it all fell into place because we decided to take a gigantic, frightening leap over 5 years ago when Dave quit his job in Oil and Gas. We followed our inner intuitive guide and for us, it has been the best decision.

Thank you so much for following along on our journey and for supporting our small family business.

When he is not in the salon, David is ALWAYS painting in his home studio.

He constructs all of his wood panels from scratch before beginning the creative process.

Dave's artwork hangs in our home and in the salon and he has been fortunate enough to now have been represented by 4 local galleries! Two in The Woodlands and two in inside the Loop.

If you have followed along Dave's art journey, liked posts, shared posts, attended openings, or purchased artwork...
We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Stay tuned for what's next, as Dave is ALWAYS creating new pieces.
