    Everyday Gorgeous

    This Houston salon is your secret beauty weapon for spring events

    CultureMap Create
    Feb 20, 2020 | 12:00 pm

    Ah, spring: the season of weddings, galas, prom, and a seemingly endless list of other parties that demand your most glamorous looks. How do Houston's most beautiful keep up with it all? By visiting the hair and makeup magicians at Janelle Alexis Salon.

    The Tanglewood salon is a haven of haute looks, thanks to expertly trained stylists performing miracles with cuts and color, hair extensions, makeup applications, lash extensions — even wedding looks.

    It's a one-stop shop for the latest in fashionable beauty trends, and it's all headed up by Janelle Alexis Flatt herself, a master colorist, MAC makeup artist, and one of the foremost international experts on hair extensions (she's been schooling others on their intricacies for 12 years now).

    Flatt and her team rely on their years of training to craft a personalized beauty plan for each client, not only relying on intuition to know what would be most flattering but knowing and asking clients the most important questions, ensuring 100 percent satisfaction.

    And if you're not so sure about which direction you want your new look to take before heading in? Hop on a virtual consultation.

    "Communication is always easier when you're in your own environment," Flatt says. "Just 15 minutes on FaceTime or submitting the online form lets me get your hair's history, see what its current state is, and ask questions — you get to ask all your questions too. It's a huge time-saver, and then you already feel comfortable when you head into the salon."

    New clients also enjoy when they learn of the 15 percent discount that's applied to their first visit, along with a free gift of shampoo, conditioner, and hair serum that's presented on the way out.

    You'll also get Instagram-worthy pics of your new look, as the stylists have been trained in the best ways to pose clients and use the light to highlight their work. You can check out Flatt’s work at @houstonhairbabe on Instagram.

    Whether you're prepping for your own big day (the salon is a preferred vendor from The Knot, by the way) or need a smoky eye on the go, Janelle Alexis Salon stylists can travel to you. From updos to soft waves, your look is sure to be a stunner with this team of hair and makeup masters on your side.

    ---

    Janelle Alexis Salon is located at 5750 Woodway Dr., suite 110. Book your next appointment by calling 713-780-2412, emailing hello@janellealexissalon.com, or visiting the website.

    Trust the experts with your look.

    Luxury scrubs brand FIGS opens first Texas location in Rice Village

    FIGS will open its new Rice Village Community Hub on December 6.

    Healthcare apparel company FIGS is opening its first brick-and-mortar store in Texas with a new Community Hub in Rice Village. The retail space is designed to serve both as a store and a gathering spot for the city's healthcare community.

    The Rice Village location opens this Saturday, December 6, with a public grand opening event on December 13 from 6 to 8 pm featuring giveaways, music, food, and drinks from local vendors. Joining outposts in Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and New York City, the Houston location is the fourth Community Hub for the company and the only location in the South.

    The store will carry the full range of FIGS products, including scrubwear, loungewear, and accessories. It will also host events and programming focused on healthcare topics, offering visitors opportunities to meet and share experiences.

    At the new FIGS boutique, shoppers will find the Color Clinic, offering scrubwear in core colors with rotating seasonal options. The store also has a Customization Station, which provides embroidery for names, titles, practice or hospital logos, and local icon options available only at Community Hubs. Personalization is also available for scrub caps, outerwear, and accessories.

    The brand, founded in 2013 by Heather Hasson and Trina Spear, is known for fashion-forward medical uniforms made from a proprietary fabric with four-way stretch, antimicrobial technology, moisture-wicking, and wrinkle resistance. Hasson and Spear began selling directly to healthcare workers in Los Angeles-area hospital parking lots before growing their presence as an online retailer.

    CEO and co-founder Trina Spear believes Rice Village was the perfect choice due to its proximity to the Texas Medical Center. She said the company wanted a space that supports Houston healthcare professionals and gives them a place to shop and connect.

    "Houston is home to the Texas Medical Center, the largest medical complex in the world, and we are honored to bring a FIGS Community Hub to this city. This space is designed to serve and celebrate Houston healthcare professionals," said Spear. "Our Community Hubs create opportunities for customers to not only shop in a way that never previously existed, but to connect with each other and with FIGS on a deeper level."

    FIGS Community Hub, 5515 Kelvin Dr., Suite 130, 77005
