First Visit to an Aveda Salon in Memorial Houston: What to Expect

Planning your first visit to an Aveda salon in Memorial Houston? Here is what to expect at Salon Germains & Spa, our Aveda salon and day spa at 12526 Memorial Dr in Houston.

Booking at our Aveda salon in Memorial Houston

You can book online or reach us through our contact page. Our hours are Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM and Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM. If you are not sure which service to choose, tell us what you want to achieve and we will help you pick the right appointment length.

Arriving and your consultation

Plan to arrive a few minutes early. Your stylist or therapist will start with a conversation about your hair, nails or skin, your lifestyle and your goals. Bring photos if you have them, and mention any allergies, sensitivities or past reactions. A good consultation is the most important part of any service.

During your service

We explain each step as we go, so you always know what is happening and why. Whether you are in for a hair service, a manicure or pedicure or a day spa treatment, you are welcome to ask questions at any time. Our team will also suggest ways to care for the results at home.

Checkout and next steps

Before you leave, we can talk about when to return and recommend products that suit your needs. Rebooking at the desk makes it easier to keep your look on schedule.

Services you can book on your first visit

Many guests start with a hair service, a manicure or pedicure, or a facial, and add more services once they know the salon. You can also combine services in one trip. Tell us how much time you have when you book, and we will help you plan the order so the day feels easy. Our Aveda salon in Memorial Houston is open Monday through Friday from 10 AM to 6 PM and Saturday from 10 AM to 4 PM.

How to prepare for your appointment

  • Bring photos of looks you like, and photos of looks you do not like. Both help.
  • Be ready to share your hair history, including color, smoothing treatments and how long ago they were done.
  • Tell us about allergies, sensitivities or past reactions to products.
  • Wear comfortable clothing, and arrive a few minutes early.
  • Know your goals for upkeep, including how much time you want to spend styling at home.

Questions worth asking your stylist

A consultation is a two way conversation. Ask how often you will need to return, what products will protect your results, how your hair will look as it grows out, and which options fit your schedule and budget. A good stylist will be honest about what can be done in one visit and what is better done in stages.

What happens after your first visit

Before you leave, we can recommend home care and help you rebook so your next appointment fits your routine. If something does not feel right after you get home, contact us so we can help.
