I absolutely adore my hair

by lbk

I have been going to Joey's phenomenal private hair studio for years and could not be happier with the service he provides. I can rest assured that Joey will always make my hair look amazing! Trusting my hair to anyone else would be unimaginable.

You Will Not Be Sorry If You Go To Joey

by SeattleSun

OK, if you're like me and have read all the glowing reviews for Hair by Joey plastered all over the web, you might be taking a tiny cynical moment to wonder if they all could possibly be real.... and after my first visit, I am writing my first review on Yelp to assure you that yes, the guy is absolutely for real. Joey is some kind of talent.

The odds were against us: I was late for my first visit, I don't speak hair, and my hair has a freaky wave pattern that causes my husband to give me long mystified looks after all the disappointing cuts I've received from almost every stylist I've tried over the years (He'll say, "Um, did you tell them about that place on your head where your hair does that weird thing? Because it's still there.) Plus I'm middle-aged with prematurely all-white hair and live in dread of getting the scary old-lady cut.

Joey pulled it off in spades. He made me feel like we had all the time in the world. He asked me about my hair routine and took me seriously when I said I pretty much put my head upside down and blast it with a blow dryer. He didn't laugh (at least out loud) when I described the best cut I'd ever gotten as "sort of a rock star cut". Then he translated it all back for me and he'd completely gotten it--turns out I like funky, tousled, wispy, chunky. With bangs.

I walked out of there with the best, funkiest, coolest haircut I've ever had. A lot of people have said that Joey has a way of matching the hair to the person and I agree--he captured just how I wanted to look and feel. And the cut is completely easy to manage, my hair just falls into place and looks great. Unbelievable but true. Give Joey a try; odds are you'll love him!

Great cut & color

by SuhBunny

After living in Seattle for over 8 yrs and never seeing the same stylist more than twice, I'm glad to say I'll be seeing Joey for my third appointment this week! Joey was able to give me a great haircut that matches my lifestyle and flatters my features. In the past, I wore my hair in a ponytail since it took too long to style. Now I wear my hair down everyday, spend minimal effort getting ready in the mornings and get all too many compliments :) Thanks Joey!

• Pros: Parking, Location
• Cons: None

I got my personal hairstylist

by Sushma

I moved to United states about an year ago and was very reluctant to get my hair styled ..Being an Asian , I have long thick hair and could not trust any hairdresser to understand what I wanted

Thank God!! I trusted the reviews for Joey on citysearch and tried him..

He understands Hair, gave a relaxing hair massage, Perfect sophisticated cut followed by excellent haircare tips...I should have written this review just after getting my hair done..

I feel so beautiful now and My husband is so impressed about Joey's work that we both got an appointment for ourselves for the next visit..

I would definetely try different hair styles and Highlights henceforth...

Also, I found it affordable for such a great work on hair.

Thanks Joey, C U Soon

Best cut & color ever!

by AmyLewis

I love, love, love my hair. Right after leaving the studio I sat in my car and took a picture with my phone to send to my best friend. Her comment? “Oh my GOSH! Its like he knew you and knew exactly what your hair should look like!” I had to play hockey that night and all the girls in the locker room ooh’d and aah’d over the color. (I waited until absolutely the last minute before getting on the ice to put my helmet on too! ) The cut is fantastic and the color is absolutely perfect, so perfect, in fact, that people that don’t see me all the time say something like, “You look great!” But they aren’t entirely sure what is making me look so different. I really just look like I have the cut and color that I should have! Thanks again. It’s a long haul over from Wenatchee, but you can bet I’ll be making it again!

• Pros: Knows how to cut for wash and wear!
• Cons: I have to drive from Wenatchee! :)

Best Place I've Found in Seattle

by Seattleite1123

I've lived in Seattle for over 2 years and have tried many, many different places (small ones, large chains and everything in between). This is the first place that I loved the experience while I was there and I loved the result when I left. It is a private salon so you are the only one there to get your hair done. Joey let me know that this was my experience, and if I preferred to chat, he is there for that, or if I prefer to relax and read, that's great too. I LOVED this because sometimes I love talking to the stylists but other times I just want to relax, read and not feel pressured to answer mindless questions that I've found other stylists to ask. Joey was very interested in what I had to say about my hair, and then he gave great advice about the cut and color and I left with hair that I love. I will definitely be going back; he definitely knows his hair.

• Pros: Knowledgeable, comfortable, friendly
• Cons: Wish he was downtown!

Very Impressed

by cplouse

I was looking for a confident stylist who could offer me a haircut with some style....well I found it. Not only is Joey a true professional, but he enjoys what he does and makes you feel truly comfortable. He offers a personalized experience tailored to your needs, and you leave with a great cut and color. I won't be going anywhere else!

Joey rocks my world!!!

by nicollef

I have been avoiding layers for 15 years due to one bad hair cut long ago. Joey talked me into it and I love it. I havent had a stylist in 3 years and now I dont know how I can ever go with out him! If you need a change and have no idea what you want I recommend letting joey help...or even if you know exactly what u want..go see joey!

• Pros: so friendly and of course the foot massager
• Cons: he isnt my personal stylist!

The Best!!!

by 09MaddyG

I had become discouraged with my upscale salon in Seattle....cut and colour were never consistent. Joey did the best cut and colour I have ever had. The atmosphere of the salon is pleasant and relaxing...it's an experience in itself. I love this place! I won't be needing to look for another stylist for a long time. I am so pleased with my hair colour (red) and my cut (very current!) This is the best kept secret in Seattle....truly upscale with moderate prices!

• Pros: The best in cut and colour by Joey
• Cons: none
