About

Alyssa Cuts & Curls is a one-on-one hair studio in McAllen, Texas, run by owner and stylist Alyssa Wilson. Curly and textured hair and hair and scalp health are the studio's main focus, though it works with every hair type, from straight and wavy to coily and highly textured. Appointments are kept one at a time, and the studio does not double-book.

The approach is holistic and health-focused. Haircuts are built on precision cutting, and the menu includes detox and clarifying services, customized treatments, scalp care, and healthy styling. The studio prefers to avoid unnecessary chemical processing.

First-time guests booking a haircut are directed to the Luxury Hair + Scalp Reset, a 120-minute visit that begins with an extended consultation and includes a dry haircut, detox and treatment, styling, and product education. The studio describes it as the most comprehensive experience it offers. For haircuts alone, options run from a quick fringe trim to a customized dry cut with consultation, shampoo, conditioning, and styling. Returning clients who had a full haircut within the past six months can book a dry-cut maintenance trim, which does not include washing, styling, or a new shape.

A non-refundable deposit secures each appointment and is applied to the service. Appointments can be canceled or rescheduled with at least 48 hours' notice; later changes and no-shows are charged the full service amount. Guests have a 15-minute grace period, and a $50 late fee may apply if the appointment can still be accommodated. Any outstanding balance from a cancellation, no-show, or late arrival must be paid before another booking. Buy Now, Pay Later is available in person for bookings from $50 to $4,000, subject to approval before the appointment. Hours are Tuesday 10 AM to 5 PM, Thursday through Saturday 10 AM to 6 PM, and closed Monday, Wednesday, and Sunday.

The studio describes itself as LGBTQ+ friendly and welcomes clients of all ages and genders. Children ages 2 to 6 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. Concerns that need medical evaluation may be referred to a dermatologist or other healthcare provider. Professional hair care products are sold through an online shop, and gift cards are available in $50, $75, $100, $200, or custom amounts; gift card sales are final.

The salon takes a whole-person, wellness-minded view of hair. Services cover exact cuts, detoxifying and clarifying treatments, treatments tailored to each client, scalp care, and styling that aims to keep hair healthy. Chemical processing is kept to a minimum where it isn't needed.

A private, one-on-one studio where each appointment has the stylist to itself.
