Horrible Highlights!!!!

by gingeralev at Citysearch

I had the worst customer service by the owner and "highlights" done to my hair by Elayna were non existant! I have red hair which is now ruined with no highlights. I asked the owner for my money back and she wouldn't give it to me! Don't ever go there! Thanks for nothing, litterally!

• Pros: Parking
• Cons: Horrible highlights....none actually, POOR customer service

Anna is the best

by eastcoastlover at Citysearch

Anna has transformed my hair. It's such a beautiful color and style. It transformed me too! My husband also loves the way she styles his hair and he is very particular.

• Pros: Best colorist and stylist ever
• Cons: air conditioning could be cooler

Great Hair - Cut and Color

by katie1121 at Citysearch

Elayna made my experience great. I've been getting my hair cut and colored by her for over a year (yes, I followed her from a different salon). She has great training and is very personable. Anytime I go to her, she does exaclty what I ask for or helps me figure out what it is I want. The salon itself is comfortable and high class and the staff is very friendly.

• Pros: Elayna, cut to exactly how you like, excellent experience
• Cons: price - not too bad though - comparable to others

Roman at SoMa Rocked my Locks

by globalgrrrl at Citysearch

Roman came highly, highly recommended to me by several friends. I was desperate to try someone new, but I am always really nervous when I go to a new stylist and colorist as I am not an easy client. I am very particular about my hair and I need someone to get it and get me.

My hair is very long and every one either tiptoes around it with reluctant trims or wants to chop it in to a bob. I wanted to lift it a few inches and add layers & bangs. Roman did just that. He is not conservative, by any means, but he was careful and creative. I could relax and let him do his thing. I never once felt like I would look up and see a crazy cut in the mirror.

He is an exceptional stylist and person. I immediately felt at ease and embraced as soon as I walked in. The cut in comparison was the easy part. My hair was several shades of blonde due to both good and bad color over the years and the gray that has since come in.

He was a scientist! I have never seen or had any one take the time that he did and I have been styled and colored by best of the best here, in NY, LA, DC, London and Barcelona. More importantly, it was so detailed and precise with several different colors on the roots, highlights woven throughout and then a toner in the end on the entire head to get rid of the brass. He did a phenomenal job. My crazy colors were all in synch. I feel and look like a completely different person. My blonde is bright, not brassy and there is a nice natural quality to it.

On top of superior service and work, I found the prices to be incredibly competitive, especially considering the clean chic vibe in the salon, fun, funky tunes, the Kevin Murphy products (which I loved) and the time and attention to detail that was given. I hesitate to write this as I am afraid Roman will be too busy (as he was buzzing with clients) to fit me in. But I have to say, run, don't walk. If you have difficult hair or you simply want the best of the Pacific Northwest, this is it.

• Pros: Free parking right in front of the salon in their lot
• Cons: none

Best Color in Bellevue

by kmsf22 at Citysearch

There is no better friend than the one who can give you great blond hair just as the sky is turning grey in the NW. From a great recommendation I took a leap of faith and changed hair stylists on a whim. Roman far exceeded my expectations and gave me the best color of my entire life. The salon was beautiful, clean and friendly and the entire experience was pleasurable. The best part: Roman's secret formula for Bellevue blonds- he is talented and I am thrilled.

SIGURROS IS THE BEST!

by sayquinn at Citysearch

I RECEIVED THE BEST FOIL FROM SIGURROS TODAY AT SALON SOMA. SHE DID EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED FOR AND WAS ON TIME AND VERY FRIENDLY. THE SALON IS VERY CUTE, TIDY AND MODERN. I WORK IN A VERY NOISY ATMOSPHERE AND IT WAS SO EASY TO SIT AND RELAX DURING MY SERVICE. THE FRONT DESK WAS ALSO VERY FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. I WILL CONTINUE TO GET MY HAIR CUT AND COLORED BY HER!!! I ALSO LOVED THE PRODUCT LINE PUREOLOGY WHICH SEEMED TO BE THE MAIN ONE FOR THE SALON.

• Pros: GREAT SERVICE AND ATMOSPHERE!
• Cons: JUST GIVE YOURSELF A FEW EXTRA MINUTES TO PARK. ;)

Ok so you may get a decent haircut and color..... but treatment is so so... and products for sale are clearly expired..... and well over priced..... and to top it off.... they advertise as an aveda salon... but dont carry any but the expired product..... Same with Bumble.....

• Pros: THERE ARE NONE
• Cons: leaking wash bowls leaving the floor extremly wet and hazzardous

Have Roman do your hair, he's great!

by kdsa at Citysearch

I just saw Roman for the first time and he did a beautiful job on my cut and color. I am pretty hard to please when it comes to hair and he exceeded my expectations. I had been going to 7 and they got lazy with my hair, because I have very thick hair and it is time consuming to do a good job. Roman was a good lister, understood exactly what I wanted plus a very sweet person. I would recommend him any day for your hair. The salon is clean, well priced and at a great location.

Siguros is awesome!!!!

by lanybeat at Citysearch

After 2 appointments with 'no-show' Erica to correct my brassy hair she created & never fixed, I decided to follow my girlfriend's lead and try Siguros. Oh my god what a difference. I love my hair! -- it's so soft and the perfect color! She listened to me, rant about Erica's poor job.. and ended up making it look perfect. I travel alot and my hair is finally works for traveling. easy to take care of. LOVE IT!!! Salon Soma is so special to me. I can walk there, they always know my love for lattes in the morning..they don't push product and they care. easy to get to and free parking.

Try Siguros -- you won't be disappointed.

• Pros: warm friendy people
• Cons: more warm towels !!!
