I’m definitely terrified of getting haircuts in sketchy-looking strip malls, but this place is different. My mom has been looking for something close to home that she can rely on. These ladies gave her exactly what she wanted and they were nothing but friendly. Being Vietnamese, you’re so used to hearing the ladies talk smack, but not here. I especially enjoyed this part. I did not get a haircut here, instead I went for a brow and lip wax. The stylist that helped me was super careful and checked with me multiple times if I was doing ok. Overall, very inexpensive for such great service. My mom and I will definitely be back!

When I go in for my cut and foil, they make me feel like a queen. I get oodles of compliments and I have never found a more reasonable price.

To be very clear, I’m reviewing TN’s other location at Central & Meeker in Kent that’s right across Meeker from the Hong Kong Market. Same owner, but it seems like the salons and staff are very different. So, I got the Groupon yesterday because I desperately needed a cut and highlights. The reviews on Groupon were very positive and several mention Van as a great stylist. When I read the Unilocal reviews, I was about to cancel the Groupon, but I noticed the addresses were different, so I called the number on my voucher first to see what the deal was. I felt comfortable enough with that conversation to go ahead and book an appointment for this morning. While it’s not a luxury salon, I found it to be nice and clean enough. OK, there was a little dust on some of the stuff in the restroom, but I found it to be FAR cleaner and nicer than most of the lower cost salons in the area. Van sat me down in her chair, asked me what I wanted, and got to foiling. She explained that the«long hair fee» was for those with longer and/or thicker hair, without me asking, so she must get that question from most Unilocal and/or Groupon clients. My hair was probably mid-shoulderblade when she started, but it’s also fine(oh, I envy you ladies with thicker hair!), so I was not charged an additional fee. I get that it might feel unfair because it’s the stylist’s judgement call, but I learned that Van has a ton of experience, and she spent a lot of time on even my fine hair, so I think it’s absolutely fair for them to charge extra for that extra work. Perhaps they should have an «Up to $ 35 extra for longer/thicker hair» policy instead of charging everyone who’s over the hair limit the $ 35, though. The highlights look good, although next time I’ll ask her to do even finer sections near the crown and/or decrease the time a bit for a subtler look. Then again, I usually nitpick the result(which is almost always my own handiwork) until I get used to the change and my hair was darker than usual to start with, so I may very well LOVE my new highlights later this week when we’re better acquainted. :-D My cut is hard to mess up(although the stylist I’ve been seeing for a couple of years managed to last time, so it can happen!). Van already knew exactly how my hair type functions, and she was able to remove the damage while maximizing the length without any crazy layering that NEVER works out, even though most stylists desperately want it to. I declined anything beyond drying because there were other people waiting and I was headed to sweat at yoga. I’m sure she does a wonderful job, and I’ll take her up on it next time. I drive by the 108th location often, so I’ll have to stop in to take a peek and see how it differs. Hopefully the owner fixes it before she loses more customers at both salons due to the bad reviews for the Panther Lake salon.

Like another poster, I moved to WA and saw a Groupon for this salon that included a hair cut, shampoo, blow dry & style. I actually had to go to another salon in this chain because the woman overbooked herself. She never took my name or number to call me when I made the appointment, even though I asked if she needed those things. I sat down at the place 10 minutes away and the woman began to cut my hair dry. I reminded her of the Groupon and she washed and dried my hair before cutting it, which was odd. I prefer it to be cut wet so that the job is done more evenly. I left with an uneven hair cut in length and symmetry. Before I left, she tried to charge me extra for using the flat iron. I said, no, that’s part of the Groupon. She said«ok, then you had long hair, so pay $ 5.» I informed her that the groupon specified mid-back or longer would incur an extra charge and mine was shoulder length before the cut. I will never go back. I am unhappy with the experience and the end result.

When I first came in for my appointment I was informed that my hair dresser would be late to my wash and blowdry. I asked if I was able to have my eyebrows done during the wait and I was taken care of promptly. The lady who did my brows gave me suggestions for a woman who does African American hair and makeup for weddings. I might have to check it out. After my brows were waxed(they looked great by the way) I sat back down and waited for my hair to be done. It took my hair dresser over half an hour to get to me, idk if I blame the jaw jacker before me but I’m use to waiting an extra 15 min to have my hair done, this felt like Doctor time instead. I could tell they are good at coloring hair because all the ladies who were receiving their style after color had awesome color. I did not see any African Americans in the salon which was a bit nerve racking since I’m black but they did have Essence magazine lol. Anyways, the cool thing was that anyone who came into the salon all of the hair stylists would greet them by name so that was impressive. The salon was well kept and had a nice style to it. I only wanted a wash and style. My hair turned out not satisfactory. Although my hair was straight the roots were not so my hair was puffy. In conclusion, this salon does great color and eyebrows but curly hair may want to look elsewhere.

I’m a bit torn on this place. I just moved to WA& saw a groupon for them that included a hair cut, shampoo, blow dry & style so I decided to give them a try. The salon was nice & clean & the lady that cut my hair was professional. The positive is that I absolutely love my cut! She did a great job & it was exactly what I asked for. The problem is that when I first got there I told her & showed her the groupon. So then she went about cutting my hair. After a while when she took off my cape I realized she was finished. She hadn’t shampooed or blow dried my hair. She had only cut it. I didn’t want to embarrass her as she had another lady waiting within ear shot to have her hair foils taken out so I didn’t say anything. So even though I love my hair cut I’m not sure I would go back because I didn’t get the shampoo or blow dry which is my favorite part.

Love these ladies! They can cut fine straight hair to give it texture and the prices are very reasonable.(Not just short like some stylists do I have been coming here for a few years now, I get my hair foiled and cut– both stylists are very good! Like the fact that I can drop in or make an appointment, and they always remember me!
