Michelle Vance works as a Houston hair stylist at The Upper Hand’s River Oak’s location. Michelle is amazing at all things hair, but specializes in blending and balayage.
Born and raised in Houston, Michelle graduated from Paul Mitchell in 2015 and went straight into the hair industry. She has worked in the industry for a total of three years, and has been a certified stylist for two and a half years. Michelle is a Goldwell Master Colorist as well as a trained KMS IQ Cutter. She loves to see a client happy and smiling after she finishes a haircut or style, citing this as “the greatest feeling in the world.”
Michelle loves the diversity of Houston and the amazing food scene, as the city is known nationwide for both. Her favorite restaurants are Osaka for sushi and Sullivan’s Steakhouse for…well, its namesake.
If Michelle could work on any celebrity’s hair, she would choose Taylor Swift because she’s “obsessed,” with her look, her personality, and “well, everything,” about her! She’d love the chance to meet Swift one day.
Outside of work, Michelle spends the bulk of her free time painting. She is an animal-lover and has a lot of pets, all of whom she enjoys taking care of. Her dream is to someday open up a No-Kill Shelter in Houston. Lately, Michelle has been getting into photography and practices by capturing photos of her friends. All-in-all, Michelle is an artistic soul.
Curly ghost rootsss! We purposely gave it a lil teeny ombre blend for the bit of warmth to contrast with the icy platinum!

My body is still recovering from this color correction 😅 My client came in with chunky hilights, stripey dimension, orange faded lowlights, and harsh lines throughout.
Safe to say I got her all fixed up 😏 swipe for her before!

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

Something a little different this time for David, he loves his wolfcut but needed something shorter and “cleaner” for work but still wants it to suit his style and vibe

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!

Instead of covering your grey, how about enhancing them?✨
Most people start to find their grey to be more prominent in the front of their face. After a thorough consultation, we decided to let that be our guide for the highlight placement.
I went through, doing back to back slices, surrounding her entire hairline all the way down to her nape.
Allowing a more styled and intentional effect to accentuate her natural hair.
Anyways, I love it and hope this gives y’all some inspiration for your next look 🫶
