How we vet hair salons on My Hair Salons
My Hair Salons is an independent editorial directory. Every hair salon we publish goes through the same multi-step review process, and our guides are written and updated by people with hands-on experience in the salons, spas, massage therapists, and beauty services space.
Last reviewed:
1. Sourcing
We discover hair salons through a combination of local outreach, public licensing data, professional association rosters, and reader recommendations from the Greater Houston community. We do not accept payment for inclusion in our editorial guides.
2. Verification
Before a business is added, we confirm that it is currently operating, that the contact details and address resolve, that any required state or local licenses are active, and that the business has a legitimate web presence we can link to. Listings that fail any of these checks are removed.
3. Editorial review
Every guide and listing summary is written by a member of our editorial team and reviewed before publication. Our lead editor is Mara Okafor, Lead Houston Beauty Editor (Licensed Texas Cosmetologist (License #TX-COS-7821)).
4. Updates & corrections
We re-check every listing on a recurring cadence and update pricing, services, and contact details whenever we hear about a change. If you notice an error, an outdated listing, or a business that should be removed, please email us at editor@myhairsalons.com and we will fix it.
