Seattle Style Salon

Easiest 5 star review I’ve ever posted. Denise, salon owner & my stylist, is so lovely, gracious, Flexible & Accommodating and incredibly talented at color & cut/​style. All the stylist I’ve been with are great.
I had been bouncing around stylist for years with some luck here & there but either stylist left or mostly there was not flexibility to get appts. Basically, I would’ve put up with anyone if they were exceptional. Until I met Denise, I never found a stylist and salon that really made my hair absolutely beautiful & I so enjoy the wonderful salon atmosphere & comfort.
I came here after I saw a freinds hair transform from frump to fantastic! My hair was colored wrong, hit or miss, style old and tired and I couldn’t grow out my hair past my shoulders without tons of split ends. Denise changed all that first with proper color fix over a few appts and got my hair bright, healthy, full and now… long & gorgeous. I’m grateful for Seattle style salon

I had my hair done by Rebecca. She was very pleasant and friendly. She did a great job and did pretty much exactly what I wanted. My only complaint is about the salon itself, not the stylists. The first thing would is a price discrepancy, I know you get what you pay for, but I think knowing an accurate amount ahead of time is helpful and keeps you from feeling taken advantage of. My second complaint is really just that the atmosphere of the salon was rather drab. The décor was out dated and things were dreary. But, I know décor is really all about personal preference and perspective. Also the salon was dark, which I thought was odd.

Moved here from out of the area several months ago and gave it a try based on a couple recommendations. Denise has been a gem. Extremely talented, courteous, professional, responsive, accommodating –and a sweet heart to boot. A great find. We’ll be loyal clients for years to come!

I have been getting my hair done here for two years and I refuse to go anywhere else! I highly recommend Anne, she’s the only hairstylist I trust with my hair. Anne always listens to exactly what I want, gives amazing customer service, and has even called after haircuts to check in with how I like my cut. She has dyed my hair every color under the sun. My only complaint is that I really wish I could book appointments online– calling and playing phone tag with the Salon gets old!

Great customer service and Jody was very friendly and did an amazing job on my hair. Will return!!!

I saw the reviews and thought it was promising since it was close to my house. I got highlights/​lowlights and a cut. The cut was good but the highlights/​lowlights not so much. I had a blond streak on my bang then no other blonde streak til almost the back of my head and it wasn’t even on my part. I was disappointed. I wear ponytails most of the time to hide the unevenness. the place on a rainy day is dim so maybe that’s why she couldn’t see and I was her last appt maybe that’s why or??? So I Probably won’t be going to go back and I will be going back to my old place farther away.

My nails were splitting, peeling, and very short and unattractive. The manicurist, Elizabeth, is worth her weight in gold! She had a challenge and did she ever turn things around. My nails have never looked better. They are growing, and I now have free edges around all of the nails. She is very knowledgeable, professional, and is a credit to her profession. I am now proud of how my hands look, and am so happy I now wear nail polish. Thank you Elizabeth.

So glad to have found a West Seattle salon that I love! The salon is clean and relaxing, Jody is a great stylist, and I am thrilled to be done shopping around for a new place. Highly recommend!

I used to hate getting my hair done. It was always such a hassle. Because of that, I used to travel out of town 5 hours round trip to get my hair cut, just because I couldn’t bear switching to someone new after I moved to Seattle. When my hairdresser finally retired, I was in a bind — now I had to do something.
I decided to try Seattle Style Salon because Denise has been doing a friend’s hair for over 20 years and it always looks great. I decided to try Denise and see if I liked her and how she does my hair. I’m glad I did! Now, my hair looks great too (much better than when I was making the long commute to my former hairdresser!).
Denise knows hair. She knows what will look good on you and is really tactful at making good recommendations so that you come out of her salon looking good. The products she uses are excellent, not too harsh, not too expensive, and they smell great.
As owner of the salon, Denise takes pride in the way everything looks and runs. She picks other stylists who fit in well there, so I’m sure you’ll be fine with whomever you choose. The prices are reasonable and be sure to make an appointment because they are so popular that they book up fast!

I relied entirely on Unilocal reviews of this salon and others in order to choose a new stylist after recently moving here. I LOVE this place. They are exceptionally friendly, welcoming, easy-​going but thoughtful and Sue is just fantastic. I love that she listened to me… paid close attention to what I tend to not like (too short of a cut, style ideas that don’t suit my personality) and made me feel like she was happy to bring me on as a new client, but didn’t behave as though it was assumed or guaranteed. My next appointment is already booked.

Very disappointing customer service on arrival. Even if the work here is good, the employees here are terrible at answering the phone, and their attitudes are very phony. I did not get my hair cut here. You have to get an appointment, no walk-​ins.

Jody is absolutely FABULOUS. She is so kind, patient, skilled and meticulous. My husband was the one to find her and I have been back 3 times since my first cut and color in May 2013. Every time she makes my hair look incredible. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone, and I do, all the time when people ask me who does my hair. I use to go to Gene Juarez and never left for less than $ 300, now, for half the price I get to see one expert stylist who I know has my best interest at heart. Thank you Jody, you are the best!

5 stars… My second visit to the salon/​Denise… couldn’t ask for more. Super sweet and a perfect haircut!

If you lust after thick, long lashes, do yourself a favor and see Anne!
I had a Groupon for lash extensions that I redeemed at another salon. I liked them, a lot, but decided to try getting them filled at SSS, since I get my hair cut there. Anne was amazingly sweet and professional! She politely offered to «re-​do» my lashes, instead of just filling them. She never insulted the job the previous stylist had done, but instead she said that she thought she could give me something really special.
Holy Cow. I LOVE THEM. They are thicker, fuller, longer. I am half Asian, so I have a smaller eye shape, but you would never guess that with my amazing new lashes!
She is fast and efficient, fun to talk to, and has a true talent for playing up your natural eye shape. The funny thing is that everyone has commented on my lashes. Everyone. They look so natural that most people say, «how is that I have never noticed your beautiful eye lashes before??»
Well, wink wink, they are new. And I love them.

I usually hate going anywhere to get my hair done. I dislike the process so much that I usually only get my hair cut once a year but every once in a while I get this urge to do something different. A lot of the time this urge results in chopping off my long hair but this time I decided to dye it instead since I usually regret chopping my hair. I moved to West Seattle recently and took a chance on Seattle Style Salon because it was close and had sane prices. I am so happy I made that appointment! I can not express how great Anne is. She made me feel very comfortable and confident that my hair would look great. I absolutely love my new ombré hair and will definitely go back to Anne for everything from now on. I highly recommend Anne and Seattle Style Salon to everyone!

I walked into Style Salon because I lived close and needed a pedicure. I was greeted by a familiar face, Michelle. She recognized me from years ago and has been my stylist since that day. She was able to help me get through a strange time with my hair and knew exactly what cut would work for me. I had some changes in texture and thickness due to pregnancy and child birth. I haven’t loved my hair in a long time, and she is the one that helped get me there. Thank you MIchelle.

Like others, I made an appointment with Michelle based on the positive reviews she received here. My normal hair stylist is in Wallingford and I was hoping that I could find a good hairstylist in West Seattle to save me the long commute. I also heard that Michelle was good with short hair (which I have) so I was really hoping that she lived up to the rave reviews she received on this site.
In short – she didn’t. She was a huge disappointment, so much so that I wouldn’t be surprised if the rave reviews on this site were friends of hers (I’m not saying that’s the case – just that I wouldn’t be surprised).
To begin, because my hair is so thick, it normally takes most hairstylsts a full hour to wash it, cut it, thin it out, and style it. Plus, I’m a girl with short hair — it takes time to shape it so that the haircut looks feminine and not masculine.
Michelle, however, completed the haircut in less than 30 minutes. That’s 30 minutes to wash, cut, thin, and style my hair. Ack!
The end result, predictably, was hair that wasn’t cut well, wasn’t thinned out appropriately, and worse — didn’t grow out well. In two weeks, my hair looked bushy all over again. It was the worst haircut I’ve received in Seattle since moving here.
I am now back with my old hairstylist and happy for it. He may be located in Wallingford, but my hair looks great when I leave his salon and it still looks fabulous 5 – 6 weeks later.

Much like another reviewer, I feel awkward and like I missed something in not being able to give this place a glowing 5-​star review like everyone else.
I had neither Michelle or Heidi for my haircut, but I can’t seem to remember the stylist’s name. Which basically describes the haircut I received. Not very memorable; and yet memorable in how lackluster the service I received made me feel.
I had been to Ola in West Seattle before to see Julie; it was a good haircut and she didn’t need much direction, but pretty expensive so I thought I would try somewhere else close to home.
SSS with its 5 star rating and being close to home sounded perfect! I’m hardly picky on my hair (it grows back after all) and I rarely even get my hair cut. My stylist hardly said a word to me, halfheartedly gave me some side swept bangs and trimmed my split ends, and sent me out the door.
My overall feeling was that I had inconvenienced or offended her in some way. Everyone else in the salon seemed to be having a good time and chatting away with their stylist while I sat in mute and uncomfortable silence.
PROS: Great/​cute ambiance, close to home.
CONS: Lackluster service, haircut, and no parking except on the street.

I have been devoted to Denise at Seattle Style since she first opened the salon in it’s old location. At the time, I was over-​plucking my own eyebrows and dying at my own hands (totally the wrong shade!). Denise gently and tactfully suggested I grow out my eyebrows and mixed together a color that flattered my skin tone beautifully.
I got married the next summer, and Denise gave me an updo that made me feel like a princess!
Since then, only one other person has cut my hair– and that was because I was living in London and couldn’t make it back to Seattle!
Denise helped me realize my childhood dream of being a blond. .. When I went back to my natural color a few years later, people who I had met more recently told me they had thought blond was my natural color!
As the owner, Denise has created a gorgeous space where you feel pampered and worthy. And she gives THE BEST massages while she washes your hair!
She also cuts my sisters’ hair and my mother’s hair. .. And we Whetham women always get compliments on our hair.
Go see Denise! You will love her and the way she helps you discover you own natural beauty.

Michelle Myers is a pro. My standards of haircare are high after living in creative hubs such as NY and Florida and I have REALLY strugggled to find good haircare in Seattle. I was excited and lucky to have found Michelle. She listens, cuts curly hair really well, uses and organic hair color line that really works and her rates are affordable. Oh and… if you’re not someone who enjoys sitting in the same place for hours — she will make it so.
Go see her — her 25 years experience will speak for itself.
The manicurist here gave me the best manicure I’ve ever had!!!
