By Gate 40 in Terminal 1, this is your haircut stop
Executive Styles sits right by Gate 40 in Terminal 1, solid if you realize at HOU that you need a cleanup before a client meeting or family visit. It’s past security, so you’re fine rolling straight from TSA to the chair without leaving the secure side.
Figure 20–30 minutes for a basic cut here, so don’t try to squeeze it into a 15‑minute boarding window for a Southwest turn at Gate 40. Pricing is airport-level but not insane compared with downtown Houston barbers; think a noticeable premium over your neighborhood shop, but not double.
Services usually run beyond a quick clipper job: standard men’s cuts, trims, and line cleanups are typical, and you can usually get quick beard edging if your flight out of Terminal 1 is running late but not delayed 2 hours. Expect basic product options rather than a full retail wall of styling gear.
Staff hours generally track terminal traffic, opening most mornings before the first heavy wave of Southwest departures and closing in the evening once flights out of Gate 40 slow down. If you have a very early 5–6 a.m. departure from HOU, don’t bank on them being open; afternoon layovers are the safer bet.
Tip: Check how busy the seats are at Gate 40 before you sit down; if boarding has already started for your flight, push the haircut to your next trip through Hobby.
