I have been a Gary Manuel customer for over 4 years and have been seeing Pax all this time. She is great and provides an amazing pixie cut. I have recommended this salon to quite a few of new-to-seattle friends. However, I am really bummed by my most recent experience w/ a front desk rep (Adrian?) who called last minute to cancel a hair appointment. While I completely understand the cancellation and had no problems with it, she was downright derogatory as I was trying to reschedule the next available appointment. When we finally confirmed an appointment time, her response was: "We will call you the day of, if this appointment needs to be changed again". I responded with: "Wait a minute, if its not confirmed, let's find another time when we are more certain that we don't have to cancel again". I didn't want to be cancelled on twice and be left with a mullet! She was derogatory again that she cannot predict the future and ofcourse doesn't know now if it will need to be cancelled in the future. BTW - this new appointment was for the next day so she isn't really instilling any confidence in how well run this salon is! This is terrible customer service on so many angles: 1. she didn't apologize for the inconvenience of cancelling on me last minute, 2. she was derogatory while I was trying to reschedule, and 3. she was derogatory again while confirming the appointment. This is not how you treat any customer; certainly not the one who visits you 7 times a year over the past 4 years. Though I love Pax, I am left really bitter with this experience!
I took my daughter for a consult in November. She has long straight dark hair and she wanted something like the photo below, which we showed - to the stylist. She explained that it would take two double-processing sessions several weeks apart at $220/per and that it probably wouldn't be as light as in the photos, which we were okay with. She said that she didn't have any availability for our time frame, but that she would communicate the details to whomever performed the service. After the first appointment her hair was what we expected - something in between. The other photo below is after her second appointment. In person the bottom is a dark greyish brown, not approaching white or platinum. I called the salon and eventually spoke to Maya, a manager. While she was apologetic, she mostly kept reiterating the details and issues with double processing, e.g. that you never know how many sessions it might take, etc. I explained that the point was that it was never mentioned that it might take more than two sessions; had that been the case I wouldn't have gone forward. Including product, tax and tip I spent $600. Maya did offer a free conditioning treatment , but that's it.
Walking into the Gary Manuel Studio you are always greeted by one of the front end staff. After offering a robe, they ask what beverage you'd like. I've never waited more than a minute until my stylist, Parker, comes to get me. Even if I'm early, she's right there! Parker makes the whole experience wonderful! The environment is serene yet relaxed and calming yet stimulating. I have always left loving my hair. She does different colors that change with the seasons! I equally have always loved my hair cut/style. Parker is excellent at what she does while being great to talk to. I am always treated with kindness, respect and professionalism. I love the Aveda products that Gary Manuel offers. They are eco-friendly and the salon holds a number of fund raising events that support different humanitarian causes. In summary, the salon is wonderful, support staff professional and my personal stylist is the BEST!
Made an appointment for a hair cut. I SPECIFICALLY asked if I could book additional time for styling after the cut. Was told that a full blowout style is included with the hair cut. At the appointment the stylist asked where I parted my hair, which I showed and told her was on the left. As an aside I added, I like to change up the part sometimes. She cut and "styled" with the part down the middle. Not only did I not receive a full blow out, my hair wasn't even fully dried when I left. The stylist had been approached about a client that was misscheduled in the middle of my cut, so it was pretty obvious I was being rushed out to accommodate someone else. I've been a fairly regular client at Gary Manuel over the last couple of years. I stopped going to them for color because of inconsistencies, but I figured I was safe booking a basic cut and style. I will absolutely not be going back.
Paid 290$ for Balayage: Ended up with different color than I asked for. I've gotten haircuts at Gary Manuel for a few years now—they do a great job on making my frizzy-wavy hair cute. I'm heading to college, wanted to change things up, so I scheduled a balayage and cut service. I pinned some reference pictures with a base that's close to my hair color (The second two photos below). I showed these to my stylist and specifically asked for a balayage with caramel and ginger tones. I don't have a good photo of my hair to post right now, but the color I ended up with was more like the second picture. Warm, meh blonde. It's fine—adds dimension to my hair, looks all right. But it's not what I asked for. Not getting what you asked for when you paid 120 for a service is livable, maybe expected. But for 220+? I'm just a little confused.
I've been seeing Michael at Gary Manuel Studio for nearly 2 years. I have long-mid length curly hair and it has always been challenging finding a stylist who not only cuts hair in a way that works with my curls, but listens to me and works with me to find a cut/color that compliments my features. Michael does all that and more. My fiance has thick hair and has been to many salons/barber shops in Seattle-Valentine's, Rudy's, Vain. Finally I was able to convince him to see Michael, and he said it was his best cut in years. Michael always takes the time to listen, find out what you want, and truly cares. Aside from my hair being healthier than its ever been (even after coloring!), Michael is honest, trustworthy, and one of the easiest people to talk to. Michael, me and my curls hope to see you for years and years to come.
I have been getting my hair cut by Collins for a few years and she is awesome! I have very coarse, thick, difficult-to-cut ethnic hair that usually intimidates or leaves other stylists clueless but Collins has done a great job since day one. She always takes the time to listen to my needs and look through all of the pictures I bring her for reference. She tells me what she thinks will work and then takes the time to explain what she will do. She is so patient and personable, I don't think I'd ever want to get my hair cut from anyone else. She also teaches me new ways to style my hair and she also gave me tips on trimming my fringe/bangs at home. Also, the front desk staff are always very friendly. Collins and Gary Manuel are so awesome and I'd recommend them to anyone!
About a year ago they completely ruined my hair! I had hair to my mid back and they ruined it to the point where I had to cut it to almost a bob. They offered me free color services for their mistake I went back to get one of my free color services and they screwed up yet again! about a year ago they completely ruined my hair! I had hair to my mid back and they ruined it to the point where I had to cut it 2 almost a bob. They offered me free color services for their mistake I went back to get 1 of my free color services and they screwed up yet again! I would honestly say avoid the salon. Yes it's a big name but it doesn't mean it's better. If anyone has any questions about what happens and wants to see pictures feel free to contact me on Facebook
Maria Espinoza at Gary Manuel Salon is the greatest! I've been seeing her for about 7 years and she is easily the best stylist I've ever had (and I've seen quite a few). Maria is one of those people whose talent with style, color, and cuts comes naturally. She loves what she does and it shows. She's extremely creative and inspires me to get out of my comfort zone. I trust (and rely on) her judgment and I've never left the salon unhappy with how I look and feel. As a bonus, the Gary Manuel Salon KNOWS how to do customer service. They take very good care of you - going to my appointment is always a treat (it is totally worth the trip to Belltown). Maria is easily one of the top stylists in Seattle (and beyond). She is that good.
Fantastic experience all around! I loooved my cut with Pax. Not only is it exactly what I was looking for, but she was awesome to talk to, extremely knowledgeable and capable, and even gave the best scalp massage ever while washing my hair! Really really glad to have found my salon and stylist in Seattle. The salon is a touch on the pricier side, but after years of going for cheaper cuts, I'm all about Aveda salons, and the experience at Gary Manuel was well worth the cost. Can't wait to go back! Update: Both my partner and I come back regularly! Pax continues to be wonderful at every part of her job, and we've had great experiences with others when she was unavailable as well. Couldn't be happier with the salon as a whole :)
I took a chance on a random salon being as I am in Seattle for one day. Shannon is a very experienced hairdresser with great technical skills and a great understanding of how hair geometry works. Her sectioning was amazing and her demeanor behind the chair was very pleasant to enjoy. I own a Salon myself and I had about 8 in cut off. The Salon was very clean and professional and the staff seemed very friendly. The front desk woman was very quick and always had a smile. I definitely recommend seeing Shannon if you are looking for a big change. She's got the confidence to pull it off. Most hairdressers tremble. Also thank you Shannon for recommending El Gaucho Steakhouse. My husband loved my haircut and the dinner. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I am thrilled with my stylist, Alex, and with this salon. I have been going to Gary Manuel for several years. Each and every time I walk out the door I feel good about myself. Alex is a true artist, both with cut and color. I keep my hair short and my color is red, two very demanding style elements but Alex has the skill-set and the artistic passion to handle both. She loves her work and it shows. It's obvious that she and her colleagues pay close attention to new techniques, new hair styling equipment, new products and new trends. They all make it a point to hone their skills. The professionalism of the staff is amazing -- and that includes the friendly, welcoming, efficient front desk people.
I have been seeing Derik for a few years now. My hair can be challenging, and he knew exactly how to cut it from the first time I saw him. He always gives great cuts and color. Since he has been doing my hair, I again receive compliments about my cut and color. My last visit with him was at the end of May and I have received even more compliments on my hair than usual. I gave him more freedom this time, and I absolutely LOVE my hair. The cut was amazing, and Derik is a color genius!!! Thank you Derik! Oh, and one more note: I travel from Bainbridge to see him. Might not seem like a big deal, but the ferry does add some inconvenience. Derik is well worth it!!
I've been going to Karlie at Gary Manuel Salon for over two years now. I love how I can always count on an excellent haircut and highlight. She is great at layering my hair to make it look healthy and has a good eye for what will work for me. Plus, I've been impressed with the highlights she gives me. She makes them look natural, but also makes suggestions on whether we should go a bit darker or lighter depending on the season. I highly recommend her! The only downfall is the salon is a bit pricier than I wish. I just would rather pay more for top notch quality than less and get questionable results, so I keep coming back.
I met Carson a couple of years ago at the Belltown GM studio. I simply called in, said what I was looking for, and they assigned me this fantastic stylist. Carson was awesome and continues to amaze me! She has colored and cut my hair and each time, through the process, has made me feel heard and special. It's like having a "spa" moment. She always knows what is best and takes the time to give my hair the attention it needs. I live on Bainbridge Island and travel to Seattle especially to Gary Manuel Salon's and Carson. The salon clearly takes great pride in the type of training their stylists receive.
Giving this place a 5 stars only because the girl who redo my hair did a really good job then the first person who did my hair. I basically went in on Tuesday wanting a blonde full highlights foil and basically went home disappointed coz my hair was black and I'm not kidding. I was confused. I called the salon back telling them about my hair so they reschedule me with a different hairstylish. I didnt wanna go back but I went instead. The girl did a really good job and the end result was what I wanted when I first went there. So if I ever wanna go back there I would probably ask for the same girl!
Originally went to the studio in SLU and got a balayage that took ~6 hours. Went home literally looking blonde so I asked for a different stylist to fix it. The scheduled me with someone at the Pioneer Square salon to correct it and since then, my experience with Gary Manuel has been flawless. They even book all my appointments via text! To make it short, Carson and David are VERY good. They are industry professionals who know what they are doing. David, especially, doesn’t want you to leave the salon unless you are feeling 100% about the look - which is something I really appreciate.
I was a little intimidated to try this salon because I thought it might be too fancy for me, but they offered a Groupon so I thought I would try it out, and I've been going to them ever since. They were very welcoming and I really appreciate all the little amenities like the delicious tea. I have been seeing Karlie and she is fantastic. Her haircuts look just as good after a month or two as they do when I leave the salon. I used to be a beauty school haircut girl but it is definitely worth the price to get a really good haircut from a professional.
I have very difficult hair to cut and maintain, course and abundant. For several years now (a record for me!) I have been extremely pleased with what Parker at Gary Manuel Salon has consistently been able to do with it. She is so knowledgeable about hair, eager to style it as you would like, doesn't complain at all about mine (as others, elsewhere, have done!) and is warm and pleasant. Everyone at the studio is welcoming; the whole experience is a positive one that I look forward to each time. I leave looking and feeling better!.
Love Gary Manuel- they are very high quality without being stuffy. All of the stylists are highly trained and very professional. I have seen Heather who is a wizard with razor cuts for female hair and so much fun to work on hair color with. She is an absolute master with her scissors and has an uncommon eye in determining correct color(s). Ashley is an absolute delight to spend a few hours with-she has a passion and joy for her profession which is seldom found. Stop by and say hello to Heather or Ashley. You won't be sorry.
I went in for the first time today and got a cut by Crystal. The environment was relaxing and the salon was very clean and inviting. She made great conversation and was really laid back, she was personable but also professional. You can tell she's experienced at what she does. I walked out feeling great about my hair!! The price was very reasonable for the magic she worked on me. ☺ 10/10 rating, I will be going here again as soon as my hair is ready for a refresh. Thank you Crystal for the great experience!!
GO SEE PARKER! I have been going to the Gary Manuel location on 1st AVE to see Parker for almost 5 years now. I would never go to anyone else!!! She NEVER messes up my color, her cuts grow out looking fantastic, she is creative and if I feel like having something new I always love what she suggests! Parker is always on time, super friendly, and takes great pride in her work. Thank you, thank you Parker and Gary Manuel for using great Aveda products, and being tremendous professionals in you industry!
Gary Manuel Salon, if you can afford it, has top notch service and expertise. Derek rocks- He's a great listener, fun to talk to, yet very professional. They follow up with, and care about their customer base. It's all in the details. The only GM downfall is that they are always (and I mean always) super busy, which I suppose is good for them. :) I feel like I've stepped into a bee hive- which can be fun, but if you're looking for a zen experience, it's not here, haha!
Had these wonderful people accomodate us due to a cancellation after another salon turned us away on arrival to our appointment. These wonderful people not only saved the day, but also the salon was beautiful, with a nice space and wonderful staff. The supplied beverages were nice and the hair stylists have room to work, unlike the cramped spaces many salons have back home... If you need hair styled in Seattle, I cant stress enough you should consider this salon!
I love the ambiance and aesthetic of this salon! I've been seeing Amy B at Gary Manuel for 12 years and she's amazing. She's hands down the most talented hair stylist I've gone to (and I've tried many in Seattle). I always get compliments on my fringe cut. She works with all sorts of hair, but I'm especially impressed by her ability to expertly style my course Asian hair. Amy has great energy and is super fun. I highly recommend her!
I have been getting my hair colored for 5 years now with Derik, one of the best stylists! I enjoy going here and all the staff are very friendly and attentive. They go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and do an excellent job on their hair services. I would highly encourage anyone who has dark brown hair and wants it blonde, to see Derik. He is the BEST colorist I have ever had and I'll never switch to anyone else!
Abigail did not only an excellent job of communicating throughout the entire haircut process, she also took the time to thoroughly educate me about various haircut and styling techniques. She is incredibly well versed in even the most minute details of cutting and texturing and she is quite meticulous in her delivery. This is the first time I’ve been so impressed with a haircut that I’m leaving a review.
Envy is the best! I got my hair styled by her and she was incredibly patient & gentle. I have long, thick, & wavy/curly hair so a lot of the times I have hairstylists pull my hair excessively & rough but she brushed my hair out so effortlessly. She really cares about her craft and clients and takes client satisfaction to a T. She left my hair looking fabulous & super soft Thank you Envy!
Carson at the Studio is so amazing! I go in with a photo, and she cuts it to what I want, and what looks good with my face. I always walk out feeling beautiful, and confident. She also is very good about saying that if I'm unsure about the hair cut later that I can always call her, and get pointers on how to style it. I will always keep going to her, even when she moves to the new location!
This place is great! I've been getting my hair done by Michael for almost two years now. He does a geat job with color. My hair is thick and dark which can make it hard to lift whenever I get highlights. However, Michael manages to make it look rich and "caramelly" without looking to brassy. He did a beautiful job on a recent modern soft ombre which I received lots of compliments on.
The first salon in the US that I loved! Bailey did an amazing job with my balayage + color. It's been a few weeks and I love how my hair changes color slightly with each wash - it's expected but overall look still impresses me. Will definitely go back! (I've had a few very disappointing experiences with hair coloring in other salons here, but her work still makes me very happy!)
Overall a great experience. I've gone multiple times and had someone different every time, and it has been good every time. The people were very friendly and knowledgeable. I also love that you can book your appointment online without having to call. Parking is hard or expensive but you'd get that anywhere downtown. This is a great place to get your hair cut or colored.
I moved here from NYC years ago and for the first 5 flew back there to get my hair done...that was until I met Tina Jewett and the crew at Gary Manuel. They are awesome! Tina is the very best at coloring my long hair and my cut is always perfect. The staff is very friendly and the prices are great! All the way around, Gary Manuel is the perfect salon experience!!!
I am a regular client of Maria's. She is a wizard with color. I have often changed color ( I have grey hair) and she always always always adds flair while keeping my hair natural looking (except for those peeka boo flares of pink or puple or...) and with blended grow in of the greys. Her cuts and styling always enhance my best features while staying very trendy.
I have been seeing Dez for over a year and have loved every cut I’ve gotten from her. I have curly hair and she is so thorough, kind, and talented that I walk out of the salon so happy every time. The customer service at the salon is always fantastic as well, and it’s a beautiful space. Highly recommend Gary Manuel and especially Dez if you have curly hair!
I was in Seattle for an event and made an appointment with Maddison for a blowout. I was blown away by her knowledge and skills! She seemed to understand my type of hair, cut, color, and styling challenges within minutes. I left feeling beautiful, confident, and prepared to care for my hair. If I lived in Seattle, I would immediately make her my stylist!
They never disappoint. From the cucumber-infused water, to the relaxing hand and head messages, to helping you plug the parking meter, Gary Manuel provides an amazing experience. Oh and the stylists are phenomenal -- when they aren't busy at NYC Fashion Week, they're donating their expertise to helping women who are re-entering the workforce.
Lovely salon, with fantastic service folks. Got a great cut was able to book within a short amount of time by calling although you can book online as well. Very comfortable very clean, though a little expensive. Great hair care products available of course for purchase on your way out. Parking across the street in a busy downtown location.
Very safe, COVID-19 precautions. Great locations and vibe. Very friendly staff, excellent service. Have had several stylists over the years, and loved them all. My current stylist, Krystal, and I have been a great team on my hair evolution. For several years, I get daily compliments on my hair from all ages and genders, everywhere I go.
I've been going to Gary Manuel Studio for haircuts with Michael Diego for over a year, and have yet to be short of impressed by the friendliness, hospitality, and professionalism of the staff and stylists. Michael is an excellent stylist and always strives to ensure that I'm 100% satisfied. Once again, a great overall experience!
Dez is amazing! She is the best combination of a highly skilled stylist and caring person. She makes thoughtful recommendations that show she cares more about meeting my needs than selling a product. I’ve had her style my hair many times from regular cuts and colors to doing my hair for my son’s wedding. She is truly the best!
I love the salon. I used to go to the South Lake Union location but it's much brighter and busy at this location. Salinas has done an amazing job on my hair over the last several years and highly recommend her. The only challenge is expensive and somewhat challenging Pioneer Square traffic and parking, especially on game days.
I have had the pleasure of several haircuts at the Gary Manuel Aveda Institute in Seattle. At first, I just went to support a friend studying to earn her esthetician certification, but I have continued to return for the vibrant atmosphere of a classroom mixed with the expertise of a proven institution. Great, affordable, work!
I walked into the Salon without having an appointment. I received an appointment for the same day. Isaac did a really good job. I love my new hairstyle, the cut and the colour and the way he's blown-dry my hair. When I went to a Café after, a woman I don't know came to me and asked about my hairstyle and made me compliments.
Seriously my favorite place. Got a magic straight and a hair cut. Eric as always did such a beautiful job. Definitely recommend. He really listens to what you want. Been couple days since the magic straight. Came out so wonderfully. Seriously the only salon i go to. Never ever had a bad day. Always come out 110% happy. :)
I have yet to walk away from an appointment here, and not feel as if I should be in some shampoo commercial or something! I always get great compliments from coworkers, asking where I get my hair done... I love my stylist!! But I'm not saying his name, (Michael) because I don't want everyone grabbing him. (Stay away.) ;)
This shop was amazing! My first time there and stylist, Brittany Roberts, took care of my hair. She styled my hair like she's done it for years. Very professional, knowledgeable AND listened to how I wanted my hair styled. I would come back to Seattle just to get my hair done. Shop was well run and great hair products.
If you have curly hair, Kathleen is just the best. I have been a victim to stylists over the years who say they know how to cut curly hair and you find out that they really don’t. I wouldn’t trust my hair with anyone else! The products she has recommended have made such a difference as well. Cannot recommend enough.
I love this salon, and have converted everyone in my family over, not to mention a few friends! We all have thick hair which can be hard to manage. We have never had a bad haircut and the stylists always do an excellent job with the haircut and the style! Not to mention that the price is right. Recommend it highly!
this salon is great. All the stylists are highly trained...great hair comes effortlessly and easily at this spot EVERY TIME. You can go in with specific requests and these people will match it,,,or u can go in with a little ambiguity and these people will exceed your expectations (Maria is great great great fyi..)
I have been a client of Michael Diego for about 8 months. He is a thoughtful, creative, and meticulous stylist. I am grateful for his patience and listening skills as I evolve my style and cut. His head massages are the best! Thank you, Michael, for your time, talent and outstanding customer service. Cheers, Pat
Heather has been cutting perfect layers and coloring hair into rich chocolate (or mermaid, whatever you'd like) shades for 16 years at Gary Manuel. Funny and sweet to boot! Go see her. It's a great location a block from the train/buses, and in a really bright and beautiful renovated vintage space.
I have had my hair done several times at the Aveda studio. Every time I go, they are able to execute my crazy ideas, like lavendar hair, with ease. I love my stylist Jo-Marie, and she does a great job and always has great new fresh ideas. I will continue to go back to her in the future!
Hanna H. unleashed the beauty in my hair that I had been missing. She was so professional and listened to my needs and was my birthday hero. Incredible salon surroundings and customer service added to my experience. I left feeling beautiful and soo happy. Definitely check her out!
I have been going to the Gary Manuel Studio location for years now. They do an amazing job, at a very reasonable price! The location is easy to get to, and the Studio has a great feel and decor. If you're ever looking for a good scalp massage… THIS IS YOUR PLACE! Can't go wrong!
This is a high-end salon with fabulous designers and a staff who pampers you with relaxing scalp and hand massages. I always walk away feeling like a celeb who has spent the day at the Spa. My biggest thanks go to my extremely talented designer, artiste Maria Durai. ✨ …
I went to Color my hairafter a friend recommend me to this place Honestley the stuff is very friendly but i was not happy with end result. The first gurl that trim my hair she did a good job but another lady she colored my hair horribly. I have to go home nd redo it my self.
I have been having my hair colored and cut by Kami for about 10 years. She is great with the color and my hair can be difficult. She's an expert stylist and is good working with all hair types. Their prices are competitive with other salons of this caliber.
Parking is terrible and they apparently wont see you of you are 15 minutes late. Been coming here for years and for them to refuse a haircut on my bday is the last straw. Find a better location that doesn't take you 10 minutes to find parking.
What a beautiful space and a professional, customer-centric staff! I love Carrie- she’s so friendly and knows exactly how to provide a wonderful cut and service! If you’re new to Seattle and are looking for a place to get a cut, then tá-dah!
I used to work here, still love the place! The scalp massages during shampoo are amazing. They use Aveda products which I've always trusted. Thank you Lindsey for the cut & color, love this fall reddish orange color so much, I'll be back!
I've been getting a great hair cut at Gary Manual for over 4 years. I've got old lady hair- thin, short & limp, and somehow I get a fashionable cut that's easy to style that makes me look 10 years younger. LOVE IT and THEM! ASHLEY ROCKS!
I'm a bit of an instant gratification junkie when it comes to haircuts. I was able to book an appointment on short notice and Bailey was great! The space is gorgeous the staff super friendly. I have already booked the follow-up …
I especially like the above and beyond extras like the scalp massage, and of course the great hair cut makes me feel like a new man. Can’t forget the beard and eye brow trim either. Always feel pampered by everyone when I come in.
Long, long, long time customer (since way before they left Belltown). I don't trust anyone else to do my hair!!! I get exactly what I expect - or better - every single time. Plus the people (like Caitlin) are so wonderful!!
I have been a customer of Maria at the Pioneer Square location for 7 years. And I discovered her through reviews like this (City Search). She is creative, attentive, and edgy when you want her to be :-). High value service!
Terrific experience. They made waiting enjoyable when I got there early. My stylist was Pax Opel. Very good result. Very personable. I'd recommend the salon and the hair dresser to anyone who wants a grade A hair style.
I moved to Seattle from Florida and my hair was dry and damaged. Dez not only got my hair in the best condition it has even been in, but she is a master at hair color. So thankful to have her as my hairstylist.
What a wonderful salon. The staff is very friendly and my hairdresser listens to me and does such a wonderful job. I feel fortunate to have found such a wonderful salon. You will not be disappointed.
Robby was very kind and did a great job cutting my hair. Result was very flattering! Despite my anxiety about getting my first haircut is years I came away very happy. I will definitely come back!
It took me a year to find a great colorist in Seattle and she works at Gary Manuel and her name is Kai. Not only is she hilarious but her color abilities are perfection. She also does a great cut!
Undoubtedly an expensive haircut but the best I’ve had in a long time. Dan Suh knew exactly what would be right for my face and did an excellent cut and, as a bonus, it’s growing out nicely too.
Ruined my hair! Balyage fail! Had to get 3 colorings to look "ok". Chemicals cut hair at the roots, will need a 6-12 month grow out to get back to how it was the day I walked in their salon.
My favorite hairdresser in Seattle, hands down, is Sarah. She gets me. She also gets that I want to look great, but am not interested in spending a lot of time on my hair. Go see her!
If you are in need of a little pick me up and some self care- Get a haircut at Gary Manuel's! I felt heard, was able to donate my hair and walked out feeling beautiful! Thanks Kim!!
Went and got a cut and color from Issac who did a phenomenal job. This was my first time at the salon and everyone was so accommodating and polite, will definitely be back again!
I've been seeing Amy at GM for over 20 years and can't say enough great things about her or the salon. Highly highly recommend to anyone who values quality and professionalism.
If you have naturally curly hair ask for Maria. She's awesome. It takes real talent to tame my hair and she does the best work. Thank you Maria for another wonderful hairdo.
Love this place. They are so friendly and Know what they are doing. Been going here for over a year now and I Love it. Thank you Erin for always making my Hair look amazing.
My stylist Sarah has made great suggestions for my hair and I love what she has done. It is clear that these stylists are in constant training and it shows in their work.
Maria is amazing. She understands perfectly what I want and also recommends what’s best for my hair. Appointments are super easy to make and always on time
I was unsatisfied with my haircut. My hair was lackadaisicallly curled, I didn't get the fade I requested. I am very disappointed with their services.
Just started working for this company and absolutely love it! Their mission statement is exactly what you get, and same with their product line Aveda.
I’ve been going to this salon for about 20 years and I’ve been seeing Lindsey for my haircuts the entire time. The salon is great and she is amazing!
I have been seeing Salinas for a few years & I'm so grateful to have to have her as my stylist. I'm super happy with the job she does, every time!
My stylist was very professional and gave me one of the best hair cuts of my life! Also the reception and customer service are excellent.
Thank you for taking such good care of me today, Envy ❤️ you understand what I want and you always make me look and feel FABULOUS ❤️
Amazing as always. This salon leads with education, and ensures you achieve the best look suited for your individual style and taste
James is the best!! I always feel so taken care of in her chair :) my hair looks amazing and I love the atmosphere of the Salon!
Justin is absolutely the best colorist. He has been doing my hair since 2010 and I trust everything he has ever wanted to do
Nice clean salon with wonderful Stylists. My only dislike is the location. I miss the South Lake Union location.
Exceptional service, skilled stylists, and a warm atmosphere make it a top-notch experience. Highly recommend!
Their bathroom diffuser uses the essence of lemon Skittles. it was nice, definitely coming back here for that.
I've been going here for a while now, always to Parker. My cut/color is always exactly what I am looking for!
I am very picky when it comes to hair care. I wasn't impressed with the haircut and baliage I got done here..
Love this Salon and Staff, especially Maria. Our highest recommendation! Please bring back my Harley, okay?
Lindsay is wonderful. I am loyal to salon after it moved because she’s so great at natural-looking color.
I'm so glad my wife convinced me to go there and see Pax-- couldn't be happier with the whole experience!
Enjoy the design of their place. Good location and processes...and everyone loves Isaac's creative work!
Carson gave me the most beautiful up-do for my niece’s wedding. Highly recommend her and the salon.
