Boardroom currently has 7 locations throughout Houston including Galleria, Rice Village, Tanglewood, Vintage Park, Washington Heights, The Woodlands, and Katy, with plans to expand to Baybrook and Sugar Land this year.
Boardroom combines the community and nostalgia of an old-time barbershop, outstanding client service and professionalism, and a 1920s-country club environment to create a masculine salon where men can relax, unwind, and confidently enjoy the highest quality haircut, shave, or spa service in town.
Boardroom’s mission is to help men look and feel their best by combining exceptional hair, shave and spa services with outstanding client service. All services are delivered by a friendly, highly skilled team of professionals in a comfortable, masculine, and relaxing environment.

Experience where men get ready at the Boardroom.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
Although Boardroom’s business category was non-existent in 2004, when the company was founded, the space now has many new entrants, most of which are expanding through a franchise based model. As the ‘original’ entrant in the industry, Boardroom’s corporate based model, proven concept both financially and as voted by client satisfaction is now the pursued and preferred tenant in the top markets. Boardroom’s focus is to continue to give clients a reason to regularly select Boardroom as their place to get ready, be the preferred employer, and to expand by opening new locations in the best retail and lifestyle centers in their target markets.
Boardroom distinguishes itself by building the best teams, creating a relaxing, masculine environment and providing a consistent client experience.
Boardroom Salon for Men – what should we know? What do you guys do best? What sets you apart from the competition?
Boardroom Salon focuses on delivering unique, meaningful and sustainable value to its clients and team members.
Believing strong teams create successful businesses and wanting to attract the best team members, Boardroom has moved away from the commission only or booth rental business model, and created stable compensation plans and career growth by providing attractive base pay, commissions, bonuses, health insurance, paid time off, and the ability to advance into salon management and corporate roles.
Boardroom also took a fresh approach when it came to delivering value to our clients, beginning with the belief “it’s our responsibility, as experts, to educate our clients on how to keep their great look and style during the two to three weeks between haircuts, in addition to having them look great and feel confident when they finish their Boardroom experience.” Further, Boardroom introduced Memberships, where a client may pay one price and enjoy unlimited haircuts for a full year or six months. Memberships allow clients to feel like owners, making their experience more relaxed, and creating Boardroom’s greatest advocates.
- Competitive points of differentiation.
- The masculine, country club environment, best team in the industry, and consistent client experience make Boardroom unique.
- Boardroom, with its dark wood paneling, plush leather chairs, pool table, chess board, complimentary beverage and great vibes, is reminiscent of a 1920′s country club designed to take you back to an earlier, elegant era; a place of escape from the trials and tribulations of the day.
- Boardroom’s friendly, professional team are continuously trained to provide a superior, consistent client service experience to each client, on every visit.
What moment in your career do you look back most fondly on?
A few months after opening the first salon, the team was in transition, and down to one stylist/team member. Always tenacious, Bruce and Heather Schultz, Boardroom’s Founders, owned all roles in the company, except cutting hair, and focused on rebuilding the team with individuals who shared Boardroom’s vision and core values. Boardroom has since grown to 300+ team members and the preferred employer in the industry with 24 locations across Texas, Tennessee, Oklahoma and Georgia.
