I’d been searching for a beautician to do my ktips for close to a year. I couldn’t have chosen a better stylist. She was very knowledgeable, informative, prepared, and kind. I instantly felt comfortable sitting in the chair. Would highly recommend.Not to mention, my hair is naturally curly, my curls have never looked as beautiful before the product Chanel used…

Chanel was amazing, she’s so knowledgeable. My experience with ktips exceeded my expectations. It’s so natural and versatile.

Chanel is very professional and prompt. Very clean and professional environment and it’s One on one contact with her clients

While my hair looked beautiful after the initial K-Tip installation, the lack of professionalism afterward was disappointing. The service was supposed to include a complimentary shampoo, but despite multiple attempts to schedule it—including showing up for a confirmed appointment—I received no follow-up or courtesy.This stylist seems more focused on securing the initial high-cost appointment than building lasting relationships with clients. I had genuinely hoped to find a long-term stylist, but that doesn’t appear to be her priority.There are many other talented professionals in Houston who take pride in their work and value clients who can afford and are willing to invest in premium hair services. I’d recommend finding one of them instead.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I flew from Atlanta to Houston, and had the most incredible experience with Chanel. I genuinely can't recommend her enough. From the moment I sat in her chair, she was so kind, patient, and knowledgeable—taking the time to understand exactly what I wanted and making sure I felt completely comfortable throughout.What truly set her apart was how accommodating and thoughtful she was. Chanel went above and beyond by scheduling a driver to pick me up/frop off at the airport, ordering me matcha (My FAVE) and lunch, which were both absolutely delicious and such a sweet surprise. She didn’t just style my hair beautifully—she also equipped me with the right supplies and guidance to maintain proper hair care at home, which shows how much she genuinely cares about her clients beyond the appointment.If you're looking for a stylist who combines expertise with heart, Chanel is HER. I left feeling pampered, confident, and so grateful. I’ll definitely be back!

Best stylist and subject matter expert in Houston.

So grateful I found this salon! My hair came out so beautiful..the color was perfect, exactly what I had in mind. Everyone was so nice and made the whole experience super comfortable. I’m just really thankful I was able to find them and get this look done right. It feels so good to walk out of the salon actually satisfied.

Chanel and her team are so skilled at what they do and they actually care about my hair. I came in a month ago to get ktips. A previous provider did my previous ktips and I didn’t like them, so I wanted to wait a full month before leaving a review. Even coming in for my Ktip wash was so pleasant and welcoming.I’ve found my hairstylist finally! And I’m not looking back.

I really try to refrain from writing bad reviews but I do believe good feedback is important for businesses to improve. I had an appointment scheduled for a closure sewin and upon arrival Chanel was not there. Her assistants who were there were kind and informed me that Chanel will be arriving at the end of the appointment with my hair. I paid a $400 deposit and upon arrival Chanel through her assistants telephone states that she will be sending a $760 invoice that needs to be paid prior to any services being done. As a first time client that has not at this point even met Chanel in person nor seen the hair she is supposed to be installing/bringing with her I felt this was a bit unprofessional and inappropriate. I understand that some stylists may be cautious of clients walking out and not paying but that is what we pay a hefty deposit for. You have to meet clients halfway and ensure their first time experience is up to par with the amount they are paying you (over $1k for the sewin) that means being present and building good rapport with your new clients. When I get Botox, my nails done, waxes, lymphatic drainages, lashes or literally any other beauty service done it is always customary for the service to be completed first with payment at the end. I am apart of the legal community here in Houston and I know quite a few young professionals that are interested in k-tips. I was considering getting k tips myself if the service for the sewin was great but I don’t think in good faith I could return as a client or recommend her services to anyone. This is a great example of how your attitude & business practices can actually negatively impact your bottom line. Instead of focusing on how you can squeeze as much money out of your clients with up charges and additional fees, consider the experience your client is having and your business will flourish.

I rarely leave bad reviews for subpar services but this was too infuriating and I wish someone warned me.Book at your own risk!! Had an appointment well in advance with Chanel only for me to get there and someone else was saying “sit here I’ll be your stylist today”. This was after communicating with who I thought was Chanel over the past 2 days, sending pics etc. No mention of possible stylist change or illness. I have been looking at Chanel’s work for MONTHS deciding if I wanted to book her, and then there’s this last minute attempt to switch stylists. I’m absolutely livid!At this point I can’t even be sure if the work on her IG is hers because I am baffled at the fact that you don’t respect your own work as a stylist enough to think anyone else can just take your place without even having the courtesy of letting the customer know ahead of time. If you had enough time to get another stylist due to illness as claimed, you had enough time to ask the customer if 1. It was ok, and 2. Offer a refund ahead of time. I literally drove an hour after a night shift for this.While Chanel did finally call me and refund my booking deposit after I left the salon, I am now scrambling to look for another stylist for a trip I have in 24 hours.I was warned about booking these Instagram stylists and I guess I had to learn.There was NOTHING luxury about this, and with these prices… So like I said, book at your own risk.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience getting K-Tip extensions with Chanel at Aavya Hair Studio! From the moment I walked in, I felt completely comfortable and confident that I was in the best hands. Chanel took the time to explain the entire process, matched my hair color perfectly, and answered all my questions with so much patience and expertise.The end result is stunning — my hair looks incredibly natural, fuller, and has the kind of volume I’ve always dreamed of. You honestly can’t tell where my hair ends and the extensions begin. The placement is flawless, and they feel so lightweight and comfortable that I forget they’re even there!Beyond her amazing technical skill, what really stood out was Chanel’s attention to detail and her genuine dedication to making sure I left feeling beautiful and confident. It’s rare to find someone so passionate and talented — I’m beyond grateful and will absolutely be returning.If you’re thinking about getting K-Tip extensions, do yourself a favor and book with Chanel at Aavya Hair Studio. Truly a 10/10 experience!

When was the last time you went to the salon and had an amazing experience AND loved your hair? Yall listen to me good. I am a hairstylist that is EXTREMELY picky about my hair...and I left the salon excited for the world to see me. Chanel poured into my spirit, my scalp, and my strands and I can't wait to sit back in her chair. I'm on her schedule now trying to find another service just to fly back to see her. I mean just look at the pic!!! She worked her magic on a teaspoon of hair. If you are looking for a professional hair and scalp expert who can transform your hair...YOU NEED CHANEL.2025 UPDATE: Had the pleasure of visiting Houston Hair Extensions again and Geah blessed my sew-in. I came in feeling so frustrated about my hair loss due to a variety of factors and walked out a Blonde BADDIE!!! You can't miss at Houston Hair Extensions. Ktips, Sew-in, color, maintenance...ANY OF THE STYLISTS will get you right. I fly here just to see them from Dallas and it is worth the flight, money, and time to be treated like a celebrity and walk out shining bright like a diamond.

2025-06-16T20:01:52.292Z

I’ve had ktips for a month or so. I LOVE them. Chanel and her staff are wonderful. I highly recommend them.

2025-06-11T16:21:13.900Z

Dime did a half up half down sew in for me and it t was perfect! I was very nervous about how my hair would do in a pony because it's very kinky and natural, but dime molded my hair sooo slick and sleek. I ended up wearing it for two weeks instead of one, and it did not budge!

2025-06-09T17:32:31.075Z

Kem was absolutely amazing. She did my color and k tip install and it came out way better than expected. She was super sweet and was very knowledgeable about the color I wanted, keeping in mind the integrity of my natural hair.

Okay. I first want to start this review by saying I don’t think Chanel intentionally meant for me to have a bad experience, but she has to do better. I wish you the best with your success. I hope you continue to get your coins but my experience has been so disappointing to say the least.I booked back in December for ktips. She was running a promo asking for ktip models. As a model you would receive half off services. As we were texting to set up my appointment she let me know that as a model my hair will turn out even better b/c I am a model. Which, in my head this was kind of a red flag but I decided to ignore it.The day of my appointment comes and I’m sitting in her chair. I let her know that I want it filled in more at the top bc I’ve noticed in her videos that the girls have a lot of their hair out with no tips attached. My hair is shorter in the front and I didn’t want to have issues with blending it especially since I’m not use to styling curly hair. Yes, my natural hair is curly but I typically do not wear it that way. So, she said she can add more to the front but it’ll cost me more. I said okay fine no problem; how much. She said she has to see how much hair is left. I asked her this two pre times before she got to the top area “how much more is it going to cost”. She did not give me a price.Whout. No response. Please, also keep in mind that prior to our conversation when I booked she told me “ktips require no maintenance” . Now, I know I need to wash my hair, but to me it sounds like I do not need to come back to her for anything.I continue to reach out and reach out and I get nothing from her. Just silence.Fast forward to I want to say February. She posts a video on Tik tok about how a lady came to her for k tips and did not have a good experience. In the video Chanel is apologizing. She also said in the video how the girl did not receive her email with how noto care for her tips. So, I chime in on the comments, respectfully letting her know that I did not either. And, because of it I did not know how to care for my ktips and I now have free form dreads forming in my hair. I also let her know that I really want them out . Instead of apologizing and asking for photos of my hair or seeing if I can come in so she can take a look, she gives a rebuttal. She then goes and takes the video down (we went back and forth quite a bit in the comments) however I have screenshots.It took me four months to find someone to take these tips out of my hair because no one wants to take out tips they did not put in. And the cost financially as well as on my hair has been costly. I’m in someone’s chair right now getting them taken out and my scalp hurts so bad. She’s doing her best to save my hair. But, it’s so matted ! Chanel, this was wrong. My bonds were sooooo big! Way tooo big for the amount of my natural hair that they were attached to. Your assistant bonds were actually done better than yours . They were a lot smaller.I know you have clients that come in from Dallas and whenever to get services from you. And I think that is amazing! I’m glad you found another way to succeed financially especially after hearing your story from you. You’re a beautiful woman and I hope god continues to bless you! But, you have to give everyone the same experience. I can tell just from the videos you post that my experience was not the same as theirs. I did not get any snacks or beverages. I didn’t get any luxury services that would be offered at a luxury salon.I’ve lost so much of my natural hair getting these ktips out. My scalp is tender. Ignoring someone when all they want are care instructions after spending thousands with you is wild. My bond sizes are crazy inconsistent. You know that much hair should not be added to that amount of my natural hair causing it to weigh it down and pull it out. I wish you continue success!

I went to Chanel for a total new hair style. I can say that she did not disappoint. She was very professional, nice, and heard all of my concerns regarding what I wanted in my hair style. Her salon has a very comfortable environment and I was also treated to a nice lunch! I highly recommend Chanel at Houston Hair Extensions!

5 star treatment and service. I came in with a horrible past experience from a previous stylist and install. And left looking like I had hair growing out my scalp.
