About

The Silver Scissors sits on East Sunnyside Street in Houston and works across a broad menu of hair color, cutting, styling and grooming. Its color menu covers everything from a root touch-up to full-head highlights, lowlights and babylights, plus balayage or ombré and a toning service that the salon describes as a way to refresh color.

Pricing for the more involved color work, including babylights, balayage, ombré and color with a cut and blow-dry, depends on the amount and length of hair and on any previous work, so those prices are quoted as starting points. Root color for base tone only is for clients within six to eight weeks of their last service; after eight weeks the appointment is booked as a full color service.

Men can book cuts for short or long hair, beard work, goatee trims, shaves and a single solid hair color. Boys' and girls' cuts are also offered, and the boys' cut includes tapers, low and medium fades, mohawks and flat tops. The girls' cut does not include a wash or blow-dry.

Appointments for babylights, balayage, ombré and highlight services on Tuesday through Friday are arranged by email or by phone and are not guaranteed. Clients can ask about hours outside the regular schedule, which are available by request if the salon can fit them in, at a price that varies.

Regular hours are Tuesday from noon to 3 p.m. and Thursday, Friday and Saturday from noon to 6 p.m. The salon is closed on Sunday, Monday and Wednesday.
