For Blue Mambo, a European focus on strong cuts over big blow-outs sets the salon apart from other Houston salons.

“We are more of an urban-type salon with an emphasis on cutting,” We do everything that other salons do, but go for a European edge with a focus mostly on the cut. Blue Mambo aspires to create unique work that is respected by their peers and always on the cusp of innovation.

“We've always tried to be a “hairdresser’s hairdresser,”
That's what we've always stood for. We try not to design a typical hair salon and have always tried to find products that not everyone uses. Sometimes to our detriment, but that's what fashion is all about, pushing the boundaries.”

Blue Mambo’s signature style, positive energy, strong work ethic and laid-back ambiance has attracted celebrity clients including Brian Ching (Houston Dynamo), Alexis Bledel (Gilmore Girls) and Brittany Howard (Alabama Shakes).
