About

Looks That Kill is a hair salon in Houston built around a horror theme. The salon describes itself as Houston's best horror-themed salon, and its color palettes, cuts and salon identity all follow that look. Stylists work in private suites rather than one open floor, and the salon describes itself as LGBTQ+ safe.

The menu covers edgy pixie cuts, vibrant undercuts and bold creative shapes, with separate pricing for curly cuts and for extra length or thickness, which is discussed at consultation. Color work ranges from fantasy and vivid shades and creative color combinations to color corrections, ombre, balayage and horror-themed palettes. Vivid and natural color are priced by the hour, and gray coverage and all-over color are priced as set services. Raccoon tail work and vivid additions are offered as special techniques.

Keratin Express Blowout is the salon's keratin offering. It is described as reducing frizz with low-maintenance results, starts at $200, and is priced by length at consultation. Tape-in extensions are priced per sandwich and require a deposit, with the final price quoted at consultation.

Booking is handled through GlossGenius, by text, by phone or by email. Cut services require a $15 deposit, and color services require a $50 deposit paid at least a week ahead. All new color clients need a color consultation before booking, and color appointments are set at that consultation. Clients have a 10-minute grace period, and arriving later or not showing up forfeits the deposit. The salon is open Tuesday through Friday from 10 AM to 5 PM and Saturday from 9 AM to 4 PM, and is closed Sunday and Monday. Same-day cuts are offered Thursday through Saturday from 10 AM to 2 PM, without wash or style, and walk-ins depend on availability. Clients under 18 need parental consent. If the salon closes for weather, it contacts clients to reschedule, and cancellations made with less than 24 hours' notice because of weather carry a 15% fee.

Horror-themed creative cuts and color, with consultations used to plan color and to set pricing for extra length, thickness and extensions.

Stylists work in private suites in a horror-themed space, and the salon describes itself as LGBTQ+ safe.
