I absolutely love him! I found him in December and had to follow him to his new location as he is the only person I trust with my hair now. I feel like I was meant to find him! I had been wanting short hair for year but kept getting told no by several stylist. Santi was the first to make me feel great about my choice. He always seems to know just what I want to do with my hair each session. I even started bring my kids to him!! Added my before and after from our first meeting and today's session.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A HAIR MIRACLE WORKER NAMED SANTIAGO 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Let me start by saying: I HAVE BEEN TRANSFORMED. Not just a little snip-snip and fluff—no, no. Santiago didn’t just do my hair. He unleashed a full-blown work of art from the top of my head. From the moment I sat in that chair, I felt like royalty. Santiago approached my hair with the precision of a master sculptor and the passion of a Renaissance painter. His hands moved like magic—no, sorcery—turning every strand into pure perfection. I don’t know what enchanted brush he used, but by the time he spun that chair around for the final reveal, I gasped. Audibly. Strangers stopped to stare. Birds chirped in harmony. Somewhere in the distance, Beyoncé nodded in approval. My hair? Voluminous. Glossy. Styled to absolute filth. I didn’t walk out of the salon—I floated. I caught my reflection in a window and did a double take. Who was that glamazon? Oh wait—IT WAS ME!!!!!! ...thanks to Santiago, the crown prince of hair perfection. I knew then that Mexico City was ready for me to arrive!!!! If you're reading this wondering if you should book with him, stop. Just do it. Trust me—Santiago doesn’t just style hair. He changes lives. 💇‍♀️✨🔥 But for reals reals, he is solid!!! 🤗

If you want someone who acutally cares about your hairs health without a question Santiago is the most genuine hair stylist. He will give you honesty and good feedback. If he feels like it will ruin your hair he will tell you. I appreciate that. His personality is the cherry on top to his talent. When you find someone who cares about their work it's hard to let anyone else touch your hair.

I've had the pleasure of having Santiago Anaya as my hairstylist. Santiago began his hairstyling journey at the age of 8 years old, cutting his family's hair and cultivating what would become a lifelong passion. Today, he is a prominent figure in the Houston fashion scene and a globetrotter, styling at prestigious fashion events across cities like New York, London, and Paris. I can confidently say that I have never received a better haircut from anyone else. Santiago is not only immensely talented but also genuinely kind and professional. It’s evident he loves his craft, and his enthusiasm shines through in every cut. Truly, Santiago is one of Houston’s best-kept secrets in the world of hairstyling. I’m very lucky to have found him, and I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for top-notch styling. Without hesitation, I give Santiago a well-deserved 5-star rating.

I’ve been going to Santi since 2021 and never looked back. Prior to that, I was the type to jump around for a haircut. I didn’t use to care for my hair until I walked in to the salon where Santi provides his talent and skill for hair. He educated me on how to brush and care for my hair and took the time to study my hair and see what it needs. I was transformed! I finally learned to appreciate my hair! Santi doesn’t just cut hair. He’s a hair guru that studies your hair and make suggestions on what would look good and bring out the best in you! He brings art and science to his craft. And he’s listens to what you’re looking for in a style and will work with you to give the best-looking cut! You gotta go see Santi!

Santiago is the absolute GODDESS of hair styling! I came in with knots/gel in my hair. I had box braids so all my hair was falling out and gel was spread from my roots to my lower hair. I could not even brush it out. I had tried everything and I was getting upset that he was nice enough to accept me as a walk in. By the time I opened my eyes he had worked his magic and gave me the best hair cut I’ve ever had. 10/10 & I’m definitely coming back :)
