Petit Chateau

Salon Mission & Vision

At Petit Chateau extensive client interaction, continuing stylist education, and an intimate, refined setting are what set us apart. We understand the importance of the trust our clients put into our hands...it is what drives us. Ultimately our goal can be described as 'Collaborative Beauty', a partnership between stylist and client. It is the defining moment when the vision of the client is met by the talent of the stylist.

Owners

Still in development is their own signature line of luxury cosmetics which they plan to unveil soon as Elizabeth Edward Collections for Petit Chateau. Eric and Veronica are native Houstonians and are avid supporters of the American Cancer Society and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
