Jackie Galeno
Cosmetologist
Full transparency: today was slow, and for a moment, I let fear convince me that one quiet day meant everything I’m building could disappear.
Never mind that last week was the most successful week of my entire career. Never mind that I’m booked every week for the next two months. Fear isn’t always logical.
Apparently my coping mechanism was going darker, chopping off some hair, and giving myself bangs. 😂
Owning a small business has been such a blessing, but I’m learning that part of entrepreneurship is learning not to measure your success by one day.
Some days I feel incredibly confident in what I’m building. Other days I panic-cut bangs.
Both can be true. 🤍

Big news 🤍
After 19 years behind the chair, I’m opening my own salon studio.
Galeno Cotton Hair Studio is officially coming soon.
This wasn’t something I ever imagined for myself, but over time the idea of creating a space that feels personal, peaceful, and completely my own started to feel like the right next chapter.
My time at my previous salon has now come to an end a little sooner than expected, so while I finish preparing the new studio, I’ll be offering a limited number of house-call appointments for clients who need me in the meantime.
If you already had an appointment with me or would like to schedule before the studio officially opens, just send me a message. 🤍
I have so much more to share with you — the space, the location, the story behind the name, and everything I’ve been working on behind the scenes.
Welcome to Galeno Cotton Hair Studio.
I can’t wait for you to see what’s next. ✨

As always… my boss is better than yours. 💁🏻♀️
Tonight took the whole crew to Morton’s Steakhouse for our annual company dinner.
Team members from Greenway Plaza, the original Midtown location, the only Aveda Barbershop in Houston, and our partnership at the Thompson Hotel all together in one place.
So grateful to work with such a talented crew… and a boss who knows how to celebrate his team right. 🥩✨

Yesterday, I took a well-deserved break from the salon to attend the Texans game for a very special reason!
As some of you may know, I'm a proud sponsor and running guide for .htx. Bee Abled is an amazing nonprofit empowering athletes with disabilities to crush their fitness goals.
Yesterday, the incredible Executive Director, Gloria Suarez, received the prestigious 2025 Campeón de la Comunidad Award, along with a $25,000 grant for Bee Abled!!!
My heart is overflowing with joy seeing them receive this well-deserved recognition!
If you're feeling inspired, I encourage you to get involved and be part of this amazing mission! 😉

I wanna take a quick moment to introduce myself (if you’re new here)
I’m Jackie, your hair artist. I’ve been a cosmetologist for almost 18 years! I’ve been working for the best 5 years of my career. I specialize in cuts and color. I love my career to the point that I accept appointments as early as 6am! I’m a runner, a Tia and I’m also a single mother of two beautiful girl poodles Cindy 15 and PJ 14. They are the fuel that gets me to work everyday. Thank you .isabel for babysitting my girls so I can focus on my career.
Thank you 📸 for capturing these beautiful moments with my girls 🐩 🐩
