Ali Robertson is one of the newer additions to The Upper Hand at Hyde Park, but she is definitely not new to hairdressing. This Michigan transplant has been following her dream of creating art through hair styling since 2010 and constantly seeks ways to improve her craft and remain inspired.
Ali specializes in Balayage, Extensions and Keratin Smoothing Treatments but is highly trained in all aspects of color, cutting and styling. Never afraid of a “hair challenge,” Ali absolutely loves working with her clients to make sure that she “hits it out of the park” every time. “When my clients leave feeling on top of the world, I am more motivated than ever!”
An avid animal lover and music enthusiast, Ali is constantly on the lookout for new pet friendly venues. Most importantly, Ali equates beauty with peace and happiness and looks forward to spreading beauty all throughout Houston. Check out Ali’s Instagram and follow her work below.
I hope you’re not falling for those at-home color brands telling you that you can get the same results with a box as you can with a professional. 😂

After much deliberation, because it is a combination of several cuts, Ive decided this is a disconnected, jellyfish shag. Thank you for listening

M came in with some uneven overall color, and dry ends. To fix it up I did Goldwell 4N Colorance all over and for some pops of color 6G Topchic in a couple foils around the face, just for some dimension. For the cut, they had never done layers and usually did a one length. I wanted to give them layers but keep some length, so we can keep growing it out. Cut it round to the head to start shaping it up, finger twisted it out, and diffused the hair. Then pulled some of those curls apart and gave the head a shake, as they don’t like them to look so perfect.
Thanks for looking yall!
