Wen Chic Image Bar

I’ve been here multiple times and Mandie has always done my hair, wouldn’t use anyone else! Facility is always clean, everyone seems polite. Mandie always seems to go above and beyond for her clients I have referred many friends to her and they were very grateful and continue to use her. Thank you!

Really bad hair cut… No idea of what bangs are. The staff doesn’t get a long at all! At first I thought they were joking but then it was pretty noticeable they don’t like each other. Got my hair died the color was great however the girl seemed to have zero «0» experience…

I have been to Wen Chic Image Bar on several occasions for hairstyling, blow outs, and just recently, for Makeup Application with Laura. Her work is nothing short of amazing I would HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun hair experience by yourself or with friends!

I came in needing my hair curled for a holiday party and asked for Isis. She did a wonderful job! Would highly recommend this salon to anyone in the Katy area.

I have naturally curly hair. I went to see Koryn, she told me that she could make my hair look fabulous and straight which is what she failed to do. I normally get Dominican blow-​outs because the girls at Dominican salons have experience with my type of hair. The minute I walked outside my hair went «POOF» and I had to re-​straighten it as soon as I got back home because I was on my way to a wedding. All the times I’ve gotten my hair blown out in the past my air would last over 4 days. Whatever Koryn did only lasted about an hour. I’m not saying she is a bad hair stylist. All I know is that she very inexperienced with curly hair.

Came in here for a consultation and i have extremely long thing hair. I specifically told my stylist i did not want to pay around $ 300. She said highlights would be around $ 180. I came back and it turned out to be $ 280 total! (not including tip)
This included the $ 80 charge for toner and i did not know this was expensive at the time because this was my first time getting my hair done professionally. I got scammed and taken advantage of.
In the middle of her doing my hair she ran out of product and they had to run to the other salon, this was extremely unprofessional. Then she had the nerve to tell me that she «should charge me for for the extra hair dye» but she didn’t since the price was so high.
In the end i didn’t even get a receipt because I used a coupon and the manager needed to approve it first. I didn’t even argue i just wanted out of this place.
I will never come here it is so unprofessional and over priced and my highlights were not even at all. I had one huge blonde highlight that did not even blend correctly.
DO NOT COME HERE

I’ve been twice to have my hair curled for special occasions and both Jennifer and Koryn were both great. I was super happy with my results. I love the concept of these dry bar salons, it’s so convenient and I’m happy there’s one so close to me now. I’m an Aveda junkie and that’s just an added bonus. This place has definitely found a place on my list of beauty indulgences!

I’ll start with the positives… my daughter (11) absolutely loved her hair and I’d take her back in a second to make her day. Mia was so great with her and really treated her nicely. Her hair looked awesome and we loved it. I didn’t know that it came with a shoulder massage and a little arm massage when they wash your hair! Bonus! She really loved the conditioner they used and we ended up purchasing that. The service was great and we will definitely be back! So… that being said, there are a few things that could use some improvements. I guess my number one beef is that if I bring my daughter in I’d like to hang out with her and talk to her and make sure she is happy with what is going on. I do not like to bring my daughter in to a salon and just sit in the front and wait (on a very tiny bench) is that too much to ask? Why offer a princess package for little girls if you don’t have room for their moms. I get that they are trying to do what most salons are doing and catering to the kids but that could use some improvement. I also saw another little girl walk in and they asked if there was a book the little girl could flip through for some ideas. Well the lady at the desk said oh well um… we have an iPad she can look at some pictures on??? I didn’t know of said ipad when I arrived. They didn’t ask and I didn’t know to ask. so I guess shame on me? Maybe I’m just comparing it to others and they have a menu with different looks that they will do and also so you can have an idea. The other thing that was a bit irritating was when I tried to use my checkin coupon the lady at the desk told me oh that can only be used on services over $ 35. And the princess style was 25. So I said okay well I didn’t know that but no biggie. We’ll then a CUSTOMER piped up and said oh well I used that the last time I came and they let me use it towards product. Oh really!!! Thanks lady over there that’s not getting paid to be helpful to customers! So that’s when my daughter said that she liked the conditioner and they ended up making an extra $ 10 off of me. Your welcome. All that being said it’s not enough to make me not want to come back, I’ll just be more mindful of things and see if we can sit somewhere that I can be by my daughter. BTW thank you again Mia for being so great with my daughter!

This was my 2^nd or 3^rd time to the Image Bar. I’ve always had a good experience. I don’t know if I hit them on an off day or what. I was only 1 of 2 clients and there were just a couple of stylists and a receptionist. The blowout was fine (although she used wayyyyy too much hairspray and product — I think blowouts should look even better the next day and last at least 2 to 3 days with maintenance of dry shampoo and I couldn’t even run a brush through my hair the next day w/​o ripping out strands). That being said, the place was filthy. Literally, I sat sipping my wine and trying to relax while staring right at 3 chairs that had tons of nasty hair all around them. I would almost understand if they were busy (still gross but more understandable) but they weren’t! The receptionist should be able to pick up a broom and sweep! There were also tools out everywhere, just very cluttery. There’s a closer place to me now and I think I’ll just continue to visit that one. Too bad because it really has potential.

I have been slow to write this but Wen Chic (not to be confused with the Wen hair product advertised on t.v.) is now my favorite blow dry bar in Houston area. I generally go to the one in Uptown Park, but was staying in Katy and decided to give this a try. Jennifer was my stylist and I realized my color needed touched up but am very particular about my color and didn’t have time to go to my stylist in New York. She added color to my roots and styled my hair with beautiful results and a much better price than I have been paying. I will definitely be going back.

Lauren was great. Just great. Very friendly but also efficient with my time. I sipped wine; got a neck massage; shampooed; conditioned with a hot towel; hand & arm massage…& oh yes, a blow dry & style. All in about 45 – 50 minutes. I live in Dallas & am trying to figure out how to schedule a trip just for a color appointment with Lauren.

I am so glad I found this blow out bar.
Norma is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!!
I generally find it really hard to find someone who can handle my curly hair and the weaved in extensions, but Norma is a pro!
Highly recommended!!!

Great experience here! The girls were knowledgable and friendly. I would definitely recommend coming here. When I visit Texas again, I’ll definitely stop by again!

Very impressed by Wen Chic Image Bar! I saw their before and after photos posted on their Facebook page and just new that this would be a great place to get my hair done. I haven’t colored my hair at all for 4 years, but I wanted a change and new I wanted highlights! I was able to e-​mail them to book an appointment which is very convenient and I got a response quickly! I had my appointment today and got my highlights done while I had a nice glass of white wine and had water as well, which the Moscato wine was great btw… I want to know what kind it is.
The inside of the place looks so chic and is a neat concept, they use Aveda which is wonderful! Their staff is great, everyone that I talked to was very nice and friendly and made me even more excited for my new look, also everyone I saw walk out of their today had great hair when they walked out! I am so pleased with my highlights and so glad that I chose this place and was lucky enough to get Erica to do my hair, she did an amazing job and was so easy to talk to and listened to what I wanted but also helped me figure out what would be the best option! Thanks again so much ladies (Erica, Jenn, and Maya)!!

Came here for a bridal party, and the salon was beautiful. The staff was very friendly, and they exceeded our expectations. They made the bride look perfect!
Oh and wine! Can’t forget the wine! Will definitely be back for my next special occasion.

Kudos to Wen Chic Image Bar! (And to my hubby for the awesome gift certificate).
Norma warmly greeted me when I came in. I was a walk in but was able to get in right away. If you have really thick, long or unruly hair it’s wise to set up a consultation first. It’s a very fresh and modern image bar, it has hair dryers that hang from the ceiling! Love the chic touches and colors too. The décor kind of makes you forget that you’re in Katy!
I filled out an info card and then got a quick consult about what style I wanted. I chose smooth with round brush styled waves. I was offered a beverage and settled in.
First of all, this is an AVEDA blow out bar, all products are Aveda! Yay! Not tested on animals and all natural, plus it smells great. As an Aveda image bar, you get the perks that come with the name, such as an aromatherapy shoulder massage, wonderful hair wash, hot towel conditioning, and a mini hand and arm massage. And of course complimentary refreshments ;)
Norma did a fabulous job! I was so refreshed and relaxed afterwards. My daughter wanted a blow out too after seeing how nice it was. Prices are great, starting at $ 35 for a blowout and $ 45+ for curls/​flatiron etc. and $ 25 for the My Little Princess (kids under 12). They have discount packages & memberships that I’m definitely going to sign up for.
They also do hair treatments, make up, updos, and lip & brow waxing. This is not a full service salon so no haircuts! Come and relax and get pampered! Then sashay your fabulous self on over to Whole Foods and schlep some groceries LOL *sigh* err I mean get fierce and dress up and hit up some cool trendy bar near Montrose.

I’m so excited to have a blow dry bar close to home. The staff is super friendly and great atmosphere! Of course most important part my hair looked great!
Fabulous !
