Fantastic place for color and cut

by Ryliss

I have been going to Tony for 6 years now and I no longer spend time wondering what will make my hair look better. Strangers walk up to me to compliment me on my hair. I leave all my hair decisions up to Tony, one of 7's top stylists. That is what he is trained to do; cut for the shape on my bone structure and body and color for my skin tone and eye color.

I plan to use Tony as our head hair stylist in the Bates Technical College fashion show at the Sewing & Stitchery 2010 show.

• Pros: Cut and color to make YOU look your best
• Cons: None

Krystal is a miracle worker!

by SueKTB

After months of trying to find the perfect hair connection, I found Krystal at Seven, Seattle. LOVE HER! Already referred 3 new clients....almost afraid I won't be able to get appointments with her now, but she's so incredible everyone needs to know. She listens, has a great 'eye' and truly wants YOU to be your best.

Cher is Amazing!

by Acairns1

Cher at 7 gave me an amazing haircut that I am complimented on everyday. She was able to give me a cut that brought out my best features. She did my hair very artistically and I love it! I would highly recommend Cher! She also gave me the 7 products and they work great for me. The clean, fresh scent of the shampoo, along with the non-greasy polish keep my hair healthy and looking fabulous. Thank you Cher!

• Pros: Amazing Haircut

Lots of extras, pretty good service

by Corrine85

This place has a hip, trendy atmosphere. There is a DJ, loud music, and a barista that makes great lattes. The magazines are all high-fashion (think famous designers, catwalk shows), with no US Weekly or Cosmo in sight. It's fun but not especially cozy.

However, I care more about quality of service. I saw Tonya for a partial foil and cut. She did a good job on the color, but my hair turned out more yellow than the ashy blonde I usually get. But that's my fault for not telling her. I guess I thought she knew because my hair was a light ashy blonde when I walked in. It still looks very good though.She said I'd need to come in again for a toner rinse to get that light color again.

The cut was nothing special. It probably only took her 10 minutes. I just asked for a trim and a little more shape. But really, even I can't see a difference. It was a little disappointing, but I guess it was just a "trim." I'd give Tonya a 3.5 overall.

The price was about what I usually pay. The total came to $165, plus I added a $30 tip. Pricey but expected.

My only issue with Tonya was that she was pretty pushy. She was really pressing me to buy the Hair Mask and shampoo/conditioner. She started lecturing me after I admitted to using the Neutrogena intensive hair mask. Anyway, I got suckered into buying the hair mask and don't think it's as good as my usual Neutrogena stuff.

Tonya was also pushy about getting me to come in every 6 weeks for color as opposed to my usual 3 months. I thought this was weird because even she said nobody would notice my natually blonde roots growing out. Nobody even knows I get highlights because my hair is so light naturally.

I suspect that anyone that gives this place 5 stars is swayed by the atmosphere and is probably not very discerning about the quality of service. I think 4 stars is generous.

• Pros: Very good lattes, silky robes, cool music, trendy people
• Cons: Pretentious greeters

Best Stylist in Seattle

by kas5292

Lindsay first cut my hair about 5 years ago. I recently moved back to seattle and I was in luck because she still works at Seven (even though they moved locations). I was thrilled!

Got my hair cut yesterday - the space is a little intense, but Lindsay remembered me, and remembered my hair (even though it was completely different from when she cut it before). She evaluated my face, hair texture, etc and got to work.

I left Seven feeling fabulous. I am loving my new, short hair cut - and I'm glad Seven is such a great place to work, that I was able to find Lindsay still working there!

My hair is thick and fairly course. It also has natural curl. It's hard to get a short hair cut that is complimenting to my face...but Lindsay does it. I'm digging my new hair - thanks Lindsay!!

• Pros: friendly, knowledgable, personable
• Cons: n/a

I LOVE SEVEN!!!!

by kolekev

I recieved a free cut card in the mail at my job, at first i was really scared but my co-worker said it's amazing and i should try it out. Well, i am not a huge creature of change but i went in and was amazed at the space. It's modern, beautiful, and a little overwhelming at first. But the people there make you feel at home. I met my stylist (Jennifer) and she took me back to here area, i expressed my worries and she gave me the best consultation i have ever experienced! We even talked about my bone structure i was easily impressed. long story short i got the best haircut i have ever had and am now on the other side sending people to seven every chance i get:) Thanks Jennifer :)

• Pros: good cut, free lattes, fun music, great stylist....
• Cons: ????

LOVE 7: Rick, Nhi & Trihn!

by EShute

I have been to Seven multiple times now. I've seen both Trihn and Nhi, both are excellent hair stylists. I had my color done by Nhi and went a month or two without getting it redone, yet I am STILL getting compliments on my color. It doesn't look grown out at all it just blends with my natural color. My mom also went and saw Rick who is AMAZING! He cut and curled her hair made it look SO beautiful. We love the salon and amosphere. And as for the "lighting issues" there is a light above every chair I was able to see perfectly. There's always a latte and robe waiting, yummy chocolates and I've never had a pushy sales woman pushing the products. Best Salon Ever!

• Pros: Best COLOR/Cuts, friendly staff, lattes, DJ
• Cons: NOTHING!

Fantastic Color and Cut keeps me coming back

by Cathyg

I had been going to the same hair dresser for over 20 years and for the most part had been happy. When my hairdresser moved away I was in a panic! I heard about Seven and even though I was terrified to have someone else cut and color my hair, I crossed my fingers and took the plunge.

That was over 6 months ago and I haven't looked back. My new stylist is Krystal; after being so stuck in the same hair style for several years, I asked her to suggest something a little fresher, younger and more professional. I was thrilled with the results and have been going back ever since.

People are constantly complimenting me on my hair and ask where I get it done. I've never hesitated recommending Krystal and Seven to them - those that have made an appointment with her have been thrilled with the results and keep rebooking.

Three people that I work with now have Krystal do their hair and each style is unique; no cookie cutter hairstyles to be had at Seven! Each cut is designed to complement your bone structure and hair type... each color is determined to complement your skin tone.

I would recommend Krystal to anyone looking for a fantastic hair cut and color. She is indeed the color queen!

• Pros: Quality hair professional, quality products, quality salon
• Cons: None

Most AMAZING experience I have ever had!

by Arriba

From the moment I called to make my appointment to the moment I stepped out the door I felt like a rock star! I have very difficult hair that is a toss between curly and straight. I am never happy with my hair and have never blamed the stylist in the past that have cut it. I know it is not easy since I have a hard time with it .(and I have had it on my head for me to try and master my whole life!)Thankfully a few friends of mine sent me to Seven. I was nervous but willing.

I was so excited after calling to make my appointment and being helped so graciously by Douglas. He took the time to listen to me and let me ask questions.

All I can say is I am more than happy! The stylist he set me up with gave me her oppinion and I decided to put my hair in her hands. She not only gave me a perfect hair cut for me, she taught me HOW to style my hair.

I am greatful for the amount of care they gave me and I am excited to say good bye to hideous hair days.

I have found my salon for life!!! I think I will try color next:)

• Pros: Helpful staff, great vibe, custom hair cut!
• Cons: Could not find one!

Seven Salon

by AnnaSpector

The ambiance:

Seven Salon is by far one of the hippest looking salons I have been to in Seattle. There is a DJ spinning records, but the music isn't too loud. It is a very exciting salon with a modern edge.

The Stylist:

I have been growing my hair out and keeping the length was very important. Krystal was excellent at only taking off a few inches. My hair looks much healthier now and I can still put it up in a ponytail, or bun.

Customer Service:

I didn't have an appointment, but within minutes I was sitting with a stylist. From the moment I walked in, I was offered refreshments and made to feel at ease.

They also sent me home with complimentary conditioner and shampoo.

• Pros: Ample Parking in Pacific Place
