Vain

05/08/2008 Posted by KimberlyMeyer

I have lived in Seattle for over a year now and have been to numerous salons trying to find that perfect fit. My roommate recommended Vain so I thought I would check it out. I had an appointment with the lovely Scarlett and wasn't exactly sure what I wanted to do to my hair, but SOMEHOW she managed to get it exactly right. I went to my birthday dinner with gorgeous hair that everyone loved! Not only was the color and cut amazing, it was inexpensive (I'm used to paying California prices!), BUT wait there is more, I can come back within the next month and get a free trim. Crazy! This places rocks, and Scarlett was great. Thanks Vain, I believe I found my salon in Seattle!

I recently became a Vain patron and let me tell you I dont see myself getting my hair cut anywhere else anytime soon. The people at Vain are always welcoming, full of enegry and stylish advice. One new staff member in particular you should really check out is Valentine. He is a very talented new newcomer to the Vain ensemble with ability to fix you up with a clean short cut or some thing a little edgier with style and imagination. For $28 dollars a cut its a steal, so hurry and get yourself an appointment with him soon before his calender fills up!

I love VAIN!!! It is such an amazing collaboration of sensational stylists, an ever changing art gallery, unique boutique items and a fabulous makeup artist as well. And it's pet friendly too. I always recommend this place to anyone I meet. The staff at VAIN are super nice and very electic! Which I prefer. I am particualrly partial to having Kelly do my hair. She is amazing and incredibly talented!!! If you have a crazy mop going on and have no idea how to fix it...she is the one! I've gone in having no idea of what I wanted, gave her full control and have always had amazing results. I have also seen Christine, the make-up artist, and this girl knows her stuff.

Pros: Everything else!

Cons: You have to book far in advance. Also, if you can't find parking on the street, it cost's $10 to park in the lot next to the salon.

I just moved here and dreaded the thought of having to go through stylist after stylist trying to find someone who knew what to do with my hair. Imagine my relief at getting the right stylist right off the bat! Bash has years of experience and the term "precision cut" could have been invented to describe how he cuts hair. I swear at one point I could feel him cutting individual hairs. He really took the time to listen and then zoned-in to give me a phenomenal cut. The best b ang for the buck I've ever experienced in a salon, especially since you get free touch-ups anytime within the first month. Props, too, to the receptionist, who seemed to know each stylist's specialty and was able to hook me up with the right stylist for me.

Pros: stylists are great, affordable

Simply put. Vain is Awesome! And even more awesome is my Hair Dresser, Roxana. She is both beautiful and talented. When I first visited Vain, I wasn't really sure that I was in the right place. But, when I met Roxana, she was very courteous and friendly. And I could tell she had a talent for hair dressing. Honestly, I didn't know what I wanted in terms of what kind of hair would fit me. However, Roxana seemed very knowledgeable and was able to ask me the right questions and give the right advise to lead me to trying Blue Hair. Roxana's suggestion to try Blue Hair and her skills at hair coloring was great and she gave me a great haircut to go with it! I'm very happy with Vain and I go there everytime now. Thanks to Roxana and Vain for making me look and feel like a million bucks!

Pros: Very Friendly, Skilled, and Knowledgeable Hair Dressers

Cons: Can't think of any

After a 3 month hair color hiatus, letting my head and hair recover from a desert sun and harsh conditions and not to mention it Rock Star Blue shade, I finally got some relief. Sadly I had to cut most of my hair it off and die it a very dark brown to cover the blue, but after the long transition period, I was ready to get back to being a blond head. Carissa at Vain came to my aid. She did amazing things with my hair and transformed it from a post Playa disaster to a lovely honey blond. Thanks Carissa and thank you Vain, as always your Customer Service is Amazing!

I've been to Vain twice now and I'll keep going back. Roxana does an awesome job with both the color and cut. She really listens to what you want and has good ideas. I highly recommend her!

Jenny Slay may be famous for her extensions but she gives fabulous color & fabulous cuts. In fact, Jenny Slay=perfect hair.

Pros: Service, Ambience, Efficiency

Cons: Some people might feel intimidated by the atmosphere

Simply put, Roxana gives you an awesome haircut experience. Not only are you guaranteed to come on GQ (at least hair-wise), you can totally unwind and relax as she does her thing. Roxana has the personality you want from a stylist. All it took was one haircut and I was sold. I have complete confidence in her skills. If you're looking for a rock-star stylist, Roxana is your girl.

Alexis hooked me up with a great haircut and recommended a product that no fewer than 3 women have complimented me on in the first week of using it. (Kusco-Murphy Beach Hair). Highly recommended.
