Blessings Salon Spa

If you want beautiful and healthy hair then you need to go see Cydney. I have never had so many compliments on my hair before. Can’t wait to book with her again

Changing a review because the owner called and made it right. Thank you.

I love walking into Blessings Salon Spa because it has that soothing Aveda atmosphere. I was greeted with a smile by a young receptionist and asked if I’d like tea or water and that my hairstylist would be with me in a moment. While I drank my tea, I browsed their extensive collection of Aveda products. My stylist greeted me a couple of minutes later. Judyth is a new stylist from Texas with 7 years of Aveda experience (I asked). She was very nice and easy to speak with. She nailed my cut and color… probably the best cut I’ve ever had! The reason I gave this review a ‘4’ is because there is a high rotation of stylists and of the two stylists there, they are both only available M-​Th. I really, really hope this isn’t a sign that the business isn’t doing well because I love it there!

I was satisfied with the service received here over the past year. I always thought that the services were a little overpriced, but overall they did a good job on my cut and color. The problem I have is with stylist turn-​over. I have had 3 different stylists and never any notice when one was leaving. I decided that I would try a place with a little more stability.

Worst service, hairstylists. Went in for a consultation, received snotty remarks and an overpriced estimate. The lady who I think her name was abby told me I would need a single step process and then proceeded to give me an estimate for a double process. First time I went in the colorist refused to color my hair. Thought I would try it again. What a mistake. Don’t go here it is a joke!

Friendly and welcoming staff. Amy cut my hair today and did a wonderful job. My hair is wavy and it’s hard to get a good cut. She is a pro and did such a great job that I didn’t have to «fix» it when I got home, like I usually do. She was easy to talk with and her styling experience shows. I highly recommend Amy and this salon.

Do they really think they are that great? Website for Blessings Salon said $ 45 haircut. I made appt for HAIRCUT. The stylist proceeded to do a bunch of ineffective foo-​foo on me, I thought it was included since she said «this is what we do here…» Ended up with a $ 65 haircut that was not very good. On top of that, after she washed my hair, I had to wait 20 minutes while she worked on somebody else! I have never experience that before, I thought it was incredibly rude and there was no apology or explanation.
I will never go back there.

I have gone here for years lost my stylist everytime they leave because Blessings told me they moved from Bellingham. Well a few months ago my stylist left again this is the 3^rd time thats happened, and they wouldn’t notify me where she had gone! So I started searching on the internet and googled her name, and I found she was only a block away at salon Karibou! After seeing Shaylene McCoy for my appt I then saw my other stylist that had left blessings months before Carly Hartwick who i also was told was long gone! Phew so glad I found them once again, apparently another stylist just moved over as well named Taylor La croix so if your looking i found her as well! So thankful for technology:)

Since the remodel, this place has become an oasis. Not that the last building was a dump! They offer more services now but still keep the complimentary tea and scalp/​shoulder massage. I feel relaxed just walking in the door. The staff is completely professional– I’ve never gotten TMI from the hair stylist or esthetician, unlike other places I’ve been!

I have been familiar with Blessings since 2004. I try to stop in whenever I am in town. I LOVE the new space. It is SO beautiful! They have really high ceilings and awesome views of the bay. I’m also super excited for her to make her final addition to the shampoo bowl area. I’m not sure if it’s a secret, so I’ll wait to share. However, it is going to be rad! The last time I visited was in October of 2010. All of the staff was very friendly. I was especially impressed by their massage therapist. I should know, since I am one. She was everything a massage therapist should be: she knew her anatomy and physiology, was good with her hands, was friendly and on top of that, she did an awesome job with product introduction. She made it feel very natural, like I was being pampered. There was no pushy sales lady vibe. I can tell already that their new space is going to be very popular, very fast!

I just dropped in to look for Aveda products, as I’m a big fan of the brand. As usual with Aveda boutiques, it smelled fantastic and had a hushed, almost enforced, air of relaxation. We were immediately offered tea, a nice customer service touch, to sip while browsing.
I’m happy with the products I picked out, although the woman who helped me didn’t seem altogether well-​informed about the products. She was trying, but she also had a spacey demeanour (possibly spa-​induced?) that was a little annoying. Trying so hard to be calm and soothing, but I was there to shop, not for guided meditation. As I wonder why I’m irritated with that sort of manner, I also wonder if I too, need an hour or two at a nice spa. Probably.

I stumbled upon this spa as desperately needed a facial. Stacey did a GREAT job and I left there feeling really refreshed and my face felt and looked so much better (it was very dry).
This is a new location (they just moved from their old location which was just down the block). It is a very nice spa with lots of open space and a fabulous waiting room complete with large couches and a nice fireplace… all situated so that you look out onto Bellingham Bay.
The treatment room I was situated in was located in the back… it was so cozy and warm. It was relaxing and I enjoyed all 90 minutes of my facial.
Can’t wait to come back to get another facial. I am also going to get a massage too!

If a person were to read my other reviews, they would see that I have a few places in which I wrote «best eyebrow wax ever»… Blessings Salon and Spa is GENUINELY the best eyebrow wax I have ever received. Normally I break out after a wax, but my skin remains completely pimple free! To top it off the wax was only $ 15 (before tip) and included water or tea, and the «aroma journey» which includes a scalp massage!
Call ahead for an appointment because they are generally booked and you will likely not get in as a walk in. I’m so happy with my eyebrows that I will be returning there to get my hair done! I’ll update this review after that has occurred :)

Blessings is such a nice, well-​run salon. I have never had a bad experience there — either in the cut/​color/​etc or just the general customer service.
I have recently had my hair cut, colored and styled by Susan and I highly recommend her! She is doing my hair for my wedding in a few weeks and I am so excited!

I highly recommend Blessings Salon in Bellingham, WA! It is an Aveda salon, and I love the fact that their products are plant based. Upon entering, I was offered water or tea, and the girls in the salon are vey nice. I read the previous review about Amy at Blessings Salon, and hoped that she would also make my hair look wonderful. She surpassed my expectations! I have only had one other stylist (who is located in California) who had the expertise and experience that is equivalent to Amy’s. My blonde haircolor looks fabulous, and she chose to use two different colors to make my haircolor look natural. She is a pro at washing hair (she gave me a full head massage), and the Blue Malva shampoo and Brilliant conditioner smell amazing! The haircolor is all natural so it is much more gentle on your hair than the haircolor used at other salons. She also gave me a complimentary hand massage with wonderful Aveda lotion! She spent a great deal of time styling my hair (she explained that she likes to cut my hair while it’s wet, and after she dries it in order to ensure an even haircut). My hair was very soft because I didn’t have to sit under a hot dryer which damages the hair. I left the salon feeling fabulous, and I know that I will receive a ton of compliments on my hair! I went to another Aveda salon in California, and my haircolor looked fresh for three months! RUN don’t walk to Blessings Salon, and make an appointment with Amy asap! I guarantee you will never go to another hairstylist again!

This salon is heads (no pun intended!) above the other Aveda salons in & around the area. My Stylist, Amy got my color right the first time. It looks the best it has ever looked. Finally, a salon that realizes how important their customers are! The energy here is great. You won’t find any cattiness here either. I received, without asking a neck massage, head massage and a hand massage with Aveda products. I felt pampered & left feeling great. Prices are the same as other Aveda salons in the area. Most of all it is busy and everyone working there is smiling and friendly., you know like they love their jobs! And BTW they will be moving to a much bigger facility in Fairhaven with a spectacular view of the water soon. I highly recommend this salon in every way. I also highly recommend Amy not only for her expertise as a stylist, but helping me relax and enjoy my experience at Blessings. I went into another business in Fairhaven right after I left the salon & I had two total strangers within 20 minutes tell me how great my hair was. Now that hasn’t happened in a long time. More important though is that I love it & I will continue to go to this salon.

I have visited many Aveda concept salons, including the Sandlewood Salon and Spa in Bellingham, and this one is by far my favorite. (and I have also had my hair cut for many years at Gene Juarez) At first I didn’t really like that their building is so small, and the wait area is really next to one of the hair stations, but I soon got over it. Most of the time they will offer you a cup of hot Aveda tea while you are waiting, which really helps you relax. And then, and then before your hair cut they give you a short (5 minute) scalp massage with your choice of calming Aveda oils before your haircut. It really relaxes me and makes me enjoy being there. I don’t like being stressed out when getting my hair cut, so it really puts you in the mood. Along with that, they have given me the best haircut I have ever had. I didn’t even really tell her what I wanted — and it was perfect for my face structure. Now I won’t go anywhere else! They even offer free bang trims (I know most places do now days). I highly recommend trying them out.
