Stephen Ragle

Co-Owner

Stephen Ragle is co-owner of Front Room Hair Studio in Houston Heights. He still works in the chair — precision cuts, color, and highlights for guests who want the same person every visit, not a rotating seat.

Google reviews name Stephen as a 10- and 20-year regular for color, highlights, cuts, and blowouts. That loyalty is the proof: he maps hair that has to live in Houston humidity, not only look finished under the dryer.

Book Stephen by name when you want a long-term color and cut plan. First visits get a full consult so we are not guessing your history.

Wendy Berthiaume

Co-Owner

Wendy Berthiaume is co-owner and a working stylist at 706 E 11th St. Guests book her for cuts and color when they want an unhurried consult — the kind that asks how you actually wear your hair on a Tuesday, not only for the photo.

The result is supposed to still feel like your hair when you walk into Heights humidity. Wendy plans grow-out and maintenance in the same conversation as the first cut or color.

Follow Wendy on Instagram or book her by name online. If you are new to the studio, say so when you reserve so we hold first-visit time.

Chelsea Humphreys

Stylist

Chelsea Humphreys focuses on color, extensions, and a shape you can wear out of the Heights chair — not a finish that only exists under salon lighting.

Extension installs start at $155. Method, hair, and final price are confirmed on your head, not a generic package. Book Chelsea by name if you want that plan in one conversation.

Nickolas Lybbert

Barber

Nickolas Lybbert is the barber at Front Room Hair Studio in Houston Heights. His chair is the hot-towel shave menu: Platinum $98, Gold $70, Silver $47, beard and mustache line-up $25, and head shave $47.

Guests book Nick for fades, beard work, and the kind of shave that uses steam, hot towels, and a second pass — not a one-minute cleanup. Ask for Nick when you reserve the barber services or a men’s cut.
