The Best 18 Hair Salons in Renton, King (part 3)

Malyn Munguia I had a Keratin treatment with Abraham I was very happy and so satisfied with the results! He took his time and since the process takes a while to finish he makes sure that I’m comfortable , checking if I need water or anything. I’ll definitely going’ back to get my hair done here! Check this place out and ask for Abraham you will not be disappointed, I promised!

Lauren Pichard Chloe is really nice and very professional. Did a great job with a routine trim and added some cute curtain bangs! Been going to this salon for years and have always stellar experiences

Rebecca Cruikshank Abraham is my stylist, and I cant say enough about how great he is. His coloring and styling of my hair is the best Ive ever had. My husband cant stop commenting about how great my hair looks now!! Abraham listened to my ideas of how I wanted to look, and then he made it happen. I highly recommend Abraham!!!

Jeannie Pollock Abraham is the bomb. I went from long to short. He made sure before we started I wanted it and confirmed after shampooing I wanted six inches cut off. Tl

Tony Lyons My stylist is the owner Rachel and I’ve been going to her for over 12 years. She is an awesome colorist and listens to what you want to make your style idea come to fruition! She has totally re-styled the salon and made it her own... an inviting and comfortable atmosphere! Highly recommend!

Jessica Sternberg Element Salon is ahead of the curve in their customer service, everyone is very friendly and welcoming. Mistie has been doing my hair for 20 years and has always catered to my needs and special hair requests! Highly recommend this salon and their amazing stylists!

Ev Torres Very nice, clean salon. My hairdresser Christina is very professional, patient and understanding. This is important since I suffer from a chronic illness, so she had to adjust her methods in order to accommodate my special needs. The location is easy to find and theres been no issues finding parking.

Leah Quinill Christina Boevers gave me a fabulous haircut and full foil. This is my second time going to her. And I’m keeping her. She is wonderful at what she does. Great quality and style. She really takes her time and leaves me feeling all fresh and pretty when she is done. Thanks Christina!

Jebarson Called twice over two days during open hours and both the time it went to automated voice mail suggesting calling the stylist directly. I guess they are not interested in new customers.

Teri Hansen LOVE this salon! Very clean! Welcoming & inviting.

Kilie Steel Literally the worst haircut of my life. Just wanted a trim and my bangs cut, along with a haircut for my son. I had to go to another salon to fix the mess. The owner refunded me it was so awful. The salon I took my son to to fix his haircut literally said if that came from her salon shed fire them. She barely touched me when she "washed" my hair. Didnt even brush my hair from bottom to top. Just straight up pulled the rats through top to bottom.

Eva Whiting I have been going to Ashley for a few years now, and I’ve gone from Brunette to blonde to copper, and I have never loved my hair more each time she does it! 5 stars!!. I have definitely found my hairstylist and it’s such a good feeling knowing I can go back to her time and time again and love my hair every time!

mitra mirzaei Just got my haircut done by Melinda. I am a very picky person but totally impressed by her skills and attention to details. So happy to have found her. Give her a try, you wont get disappointed!

Moncerrat Tellez I’ve gotten my hair done with Dominique twice now! I had black box dyed hair and my goal was to gradually go a caramel brown/blonde to avoid damaging my hair too much. I want to say I’m halfway to where I want to be, my hair has been bleached two times in the span of 3 months but it is still soft & manageable! Something that was super important for me, since I didn’t want to have crusty dusty hair lol. I’m so happy to have chosen her for all of my hair needs! I will be permanently staying with her & hope you do too ! Book with her, you won’t be disappointed!!!!

Craig Nicole “Vee” I am telling you... Hair Nation is just amazing! Ashley was great for easing my mind about the idea of bleaching my hair for color correction. I was traumatized before bleaching my hair trying to have honey blonde for summer in 2020. It took me to chop off my hair and treat it and grow it for 3 years.... it was horrible and I wanted to cry. Ashley walked me through the process which she impressed me and Dominique explained to me everything step-by-step as she colored and treated my hair. I just love these ladies and they truly deserve a superb review. Thank you very much HAIR NATION❤️

angela yeh I’ve been getting my haircuts here for a few years now and I really like it. I have short hair so I need a haircut every other month. It’s always quick and easy and the best part is it fits my budget!

Brenda Begalka Been going to see Heidi for the last 9 years with an exception of moving out of state for 1 1/2 years and while out of state never allowed anyone else to touch my hair. She is the best! Color, haircuts, trim, highlights you name it, she is the person to ask for!!

Marianna Khodyk Visit this salon today just walked in no appointment and she said yes I can do your hair so I was so happy . And very happy with the results! My hair look so good and fresh with new cut and color. Very good and good price! She did amazing job and very fast!

Mia WORST EXPERIENCE. I just needed a quick trim of my bangs so against my better judgement, I found myself walking into this dreadful place. The place was empty which shouldve been my first clue but since it was a simple, quick trim, I decided to let the guy try. I explained: "just layered bangs an inch below my chin, please DONT cut the sides or change the length of the back since Im growing it out. He says :"OH U HAVE A LONG BOB". I said :"yes its an inverted bob, please dont alter the length, I just want a few pieces in front to be short for side bangs." He then corrects me and says: "OH WELL, ITS CALLED A LONG BOB." I was a little turned off, but then he grabs the sides and starts CUTTING FROM THE BACK OF THE HAIR WHICH I MENTIONED TWICE NOT TO DO! I stopped him and literally had to show him where to cut (for the 2nd time). He had horrible broken english and terrible attitude. The place was a complete mess and the scissors he was using was so dull and old that my hair was getting caught in it as he was cutting! I was appalled. After the cut I asked for a COMB to brush out the cut hairs. He point to a jar of disgusting BRUSHES with nasty hairs stuck in all of them. After I got home I looked at the ends of my bangs....HE LITERALLY BUTCHERED THEM. A 6 yr old couldve done better. Ive never actually taken this much time to write a bad review. I usually just chalk it up to a bad experience and never go back, but this place is a disaster in my opinion. In my opinion/experience, the guy should not be trusted with peoples hair. Unbelievable how this place stays open.

Nicoleta P Do not go here for balayage. Worst hair experience of my life. My hair has been so easy to work with. I have gotten a few balayages in the past and just wanted a touch up. She bleached my hair and asked me to pay $200. Then she started working on someone else. I went to pay and commented that my hair was orange and it felt so gross to her assistant? He told her that he will fix my hair but she insisted that she fix it. She toned my hair dark brown.. almost black. This woman does not know how to do balayage! she ruined my hair. Never again.

Benjamin Smith Great service and atmosphere. Probably the best haircut Ive ever had. Will definitely come back!

Mike Walker I like the way my hair looks after coming to KN Salon. Been coming here for more than 15 years. With the money i save by coming here I can pick up a few tacos al pastor next door. If you have to wait, watch the video on the TV and learn a little something about Saigon. Dont forget to leave a tip. She is a hard working first generation American.

George Orozco I have been coming here for years and the value is excellent! She does a great job cutting my hair and I am in and out in less than 10 min. I take all of my boys here too. If you are looking for a straight up good old fashion haircut, this is the place.

Danh Vo You get what you pay for. Her rate is very reasonable; no other salon nearby can beat it. But she doesnt do a great job. I have come here many times, and she still hasnt learned how to smooth out my bang.

radman KN Hair Salon is great. She is friendly, quick, has reasonable rates, and does a good job. Theres ample room, magazines, and a TV for entertainment. She was kind enough to put the channel on the food network or something safe when I brought my younger kids in.

TRACISON CASARRUBIAS Absolutely love having Rue do my hair. Is such a relaxing experience. Theres a tranquil vibe in the atmosphere relaxing jams play in the background. I go for loc maintenance with the Interlock in style and Im never disappointed when I leave.

Temple Timothy (Tim) New Look is amazing old school barber shop. I love Randy and Len and look forward to my weekly visits. My 11 and 17 year old sons also love he atmosphere and great cuts.

TRACISON CASARRUBIAS Absolutely love having Rue do my hair. Is such a relaxing experience. Theres a tranquil vibe in the atmosphere relaxing jams play in the background. I go for loc maintenance with the Interlock in style and Im never disappointed when I leave.

Samuel Wachuga One of their baber Had the nerve to curve a big N sign on my sons head without asking me. We had to redo the haircut and get the N offAvoid this guys especially if from African back ground. I found them insulting and rude.

Willie Barksdale Best barbershop in the northwest. Fast friendly professional staff. Good prices. Great looking shop. Organic facials. Have station for covid testing. Temperature checks at the door. I wouldnt go anywhere else. Black owned.

Megan Appleton Leah was amazing! She took my (fuzzy and scrambled) request and turned it into an absolute vision. Thank you so much Leah for taking the time to explain every step and for using such finesse. I love it!

ANDREA H. Starlette does a wonderful job every single time I come in! Love the friendly staff :) In love with my new look!

April Boozell Aurora is awesome!! She’s handled cuts and color for me for nearly three years. Always perfect. I moved away recently - now I make the 60 mile drive gladly! The entire staff is so professional and polite - don’t change a thing!!!

Jimmi Sivia I had my first-ever facial with Starlette at Impressions Salon, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment I walked in, she made me feel so comfortable with her calm confidence and genuine care. After a quick chat about my skin, she thoughtfully adjusted the products to what would work best for me, and wow, did she get it right! The whole experience was incredibly relaxing, and I left feeling refreshed and glowing. She also recommended a cleanser for my (pretty much nonexistent) skincare routine, and after almost a week of using it, my skin feels amazing. I’m so grateful for her expertise and kindness. I can’t wait to go back!

Berenice Ruiz I had an amazing experience at Moda Organic Salon with Emma Rose. She took the time to understand exactly what I wanted even though I couldn’t really express what was on my mind. She offered great suggestions and the result was even better than I imagined! I love my new haircut!

Lydia Welsh Correcting my initial 5 star review. At first, I thought my haircut by Emma C looked great. But when I washed and styled it at home, I noticed unevenness in the length of the under layers. I called Moda back and to their credit they brought me back in for a correction. However the stylist Lacey who worked on my hair correction did a poor job. I was told this would be a full wash and cut so I came in with wavy hair not thinking it would matter. Unfortunately I was told after I arrived that the stylist would be doing a dry cut, meaning the natural waves of my hair made it hard to see how it was being cut. Furthermore, Lacey did not know what initial style I even wanted, nor did she ask, and ended up chopping off my face framing despite that part of the original haircut looking great. I’m really disappointed in my hair after continuing to try to work with it at home. I will not be returning.

Lizzy Prociw I loved my experience at Moda. Abby has done my hair multiple times and she is a great stylist. She is very knowledgeable and super kind. I have always been happy and amazed with my hair afterward. The products they use make your hair shiny and smooth!!

Rashmika Abajian It was my first time in and I needed my hair trimmed. They were running a few minutes behind so they gave a complimentary hair conditioning mask treatment which was lovely. Everyone was friendly and professional and my hair looks great. The products they used smelled really good and they had some nice advice for me to take care of my curls.

Jared Sample This is a pretty weird one. I came in with my wife as a walk-in and they were only available to cut her hair because they didn’t have any men’s hair specialists at the time. That seemed a little weird but I don’t know anything about cutting hair so I just figured that they specialize more in women’s hair and have a couple of people around that know how to cut men’s hair and they just didn’t happen to be in that day. No big deal. While I’m sitting and hanging out waiting for my wife’s haircut to finish, one of the conversations that the employees were having discussed that men like women with long hair because back in prehistoric times, it made them easier to grab a hold of and rape. Not really an appropriate conversation to be having in the workplace but definitely not in front of a man. Very weird. Despite that, my wife’s haircut came out wonderfully and she was super happy with it so they ended up booking me for an appointment a week later with a men’s hair specialist. They had me booked for first appointment at opening. The lady doing my hair was 15 minutes late and then proceeded to give me the absolute worst haircut I have gotten as an adult. When I went to pay, I asked to tip only 10% because I was unhappy with the haircut and the lady at the front ringing me up had to bring out her calculator on her phone to figure out what 10% of $45 was; that’s shocking enough. She then added six dollars to the total and charged me $51. At this point, after holding my cool the entire haircut, I just paid and left without saying anything. Just a completely unprofessional vibe all the way through. Avoid it like the plague if you’re a man. Again, I can’t say anything bad about the haircut my wife got. She loves it. I got the short end of the stick this time.

Phanna Tha *Re posting my same review from 3 weeks ago. As it was from a different account that will be deleted. Got a perm done a few days ago. I wanted a loose spiral perm. Resulted with a tight, frizzy perm. When wet, it looks ok. Everytime my hair dried up, yes with products on. It literally turned into a big poofy fro. Asked to go back in to get it fixed with larger rods. They scheduled me to go in. Just to tell me that its what I wanted, and they cant do anything about it. Besides put it in roller set temporarily. I told her, Im very unsatisfied with the service. I just needed it fixed- straighten back or get it re permed. At this point, I didnt care if my hair was in a fragile state. Ill deal with that later. She proceeded to tell me that I just needed to learn how to style it with leave in conditioner and oil. That they dont straighten hair. With my frustration.. I requested to be scheduled to go back in 2 weeks. So I could get some deep conditioning done in-between, before getting it re permed. However, I will not be going back. I dont appreciate being gaslighted. Her (the owner) telling me its exactly like the photo I showed them. BTW, it was nowhere close to the inspired picture. The technician that did my hair was super sweet. It was just unfortunate that the outcome of the requested service wasnt what I wanted. Their customer service to rectify the situation was horrible. This was the first time going there, as we just moved to the area. I wouldnt suggest this place to anyone.

shawnaso asondillrtyr I had a great haircut and style at this salon. The stylist listened to what I wanted and delivered exactly that. I’m very happy with my new look and will be coming back.

Nichole Ramirez I had a wonderful time getting my eyelash extensions done here. The lash technician was friendly and took the time to ensure each lash was perfectly placed. I love how natural they look!

rellorKristina Durham I had an excellent experience with the hair color service at this salon. The stylist was knowledgeable and helped me find the perfect shade. I love my new hair color!

Hall Jones My eyelash extensions look amazing thanks to this salon. The technician was skilled and made sure my lashes were exactly how I wanted them. I’m extremely happy with the results.

Matthew Swanson Went in for a men’s haircut last minute on a Saturday morning, every other place I called near the Renton highlands was booked. This place got me in and Tracy did a wonderful job. Honestly, I’ll be coming in here instead of bishops in Newcastle. Kind and friendly service and only $12!

S C After getting totally ripped off at Bishops in Newcastle being charged $64 for a horrible haircut, I popped into this place at the suggestion of a friend. Best haircut I have had in years! She took her time to correct the previous mess and blend everything together perfectly. The shampoo after the haircut was more like a head, shoulders, and upper back massage. I left feeling like a million bucks and looking great. $19 plus $1 for credit card and $5 cash tip. Highly recommend!

Aaron Bauer First visit was very good. The stylist was skilled and efficient. Walked right in and was seated immediately. I recommend the shampoo. Fall 2018 update - two years later. I’ve brought my family members dozens of times and we love it.

A Schaal Walk-ins welcome! Amazing value for a men’s trim.

Alice Yip My hairdresser retired, so Ive been looking for a permanent place for my haircuts. I am happy about the services I got here yesterday. Yes, they have a new name and people and this is my 1st tell there. The lady did my hair was super nice and really spent time to listen to what I wanted. She let me know what she would do next to make me feel comfortable. She reconfirmed what I wanted by asking questions. I will definitely go back, with my daughter. But I forgot her name ..she has the 1st booth on the right hand side once you walk in. I had a woman long hair cut with wash, $25! Very good deal!

Sharon M Li gave my teenage daughter an amazing layered cut with curtain bangs in the front. My daughter has very long, thick hair and it turned out beautifully just like the picture. We both will definitely be coming back.

Jose Ybarra The wait was not long at all for a walk-in. Li (unsure of spelling) was the very nice lady who cut my sons hair as well as my own. She is very good at what she does, and is gentle and professional. Definitely opt for the shampoo service, its great! Like a nice massage for your head.

Rachael Moreno Johns Look no further, your quest to find The Unicorn of hair stylists is over.  She is Le of Great Cuts Salon (not to be confused with great clips!!) located in the Sunset shopping plaza 3186 NE Sunset Blvd (next to Saars Grocery) and she is extraordinary.  I found her in the most fortunate stroke of serendipity.  I had cut my own hair (badly) and came to the shop looking for a rescue.  What I got was arguably one of the greatest haircuts of my life!  I say one of the greatest, (I have never gone elsewhere since, nor will I) because each haircut she has given me is the greatest until the next one is.  Le is an artist, attentive, consistent, knowledgeable, talented and a true master of her craft. All of that plus a very clean convenient location, open daily, with ample parking. When I do a  walk- in, there’s usually one in her chair, one that’s next, and maybe another and then me. Make no mistake about it, I would happily stand in a Black Friday Sale kinda line anytime for the level of service she provides, but I dont recall ever having to wait over ½ hr on a walk in. When you’re in her chair, therell be a couple of customers behind you then too. Yet always, you get her undivided attention, and never ever rushed. She takes great care to ensure she interpreted the wishes you convey as you intended.  Honestly, I wouldn’t hesitate to say…"surprise me whatever you think would look good".  She is just that talented. I’ve seen a variety of her clients. Varying in age and in style,  but there is one similarity they all have in common, all of her clients are happy loyal customers.  Like me, they too have found their Unicorn and no other will do.

D Kennett Seattle winter rains are depressing. My vitamin D gets bottomed out with day after day of gray sky’s and constant rains. I found this place to tan at during the winter months. Very cost effective alternative and the beds are super hot. Clean place with a friendly staff.

Linda Pelletier Lee is excellent in matching my hair color when getting it dyed. Also, when getting it washed, love it when she massages my head. She always makes me feel beautiful after a trim!! I would recommend Lee at Great Cuts!!

Jennifer T. Lynda and Kim and the rest of the staff are very friendly and very sweet. Their prices are really reasonable. While the color is setting in my hair I get a pedicure which saves times from doing it in two separate visits.

Jake Escobar Always great job and very friendly staff. Cheap, too.

Lynda Craigo Cheap and friendly.

Kevin Bossen Lees has been my go to place for several years now and will continue to be. Get your hair cut and snag a scalp massage or any of the other awesome services they have hear. Definitely worth checking this spot out for top notch service.

Theresa Beijerbergen van Henegouwen Jeana is professional, friendly and does a great job with hair colouring and cut. Her salon was recommended to me when I relocated to Federal Way. I love the no fuss style of Jeana. Always on time and I’m in and out within an hour. I recommend Salon 334 very much!

Carol Janssen Great service from an expert colorist & stylist! Appointments are easy, and her prices are great! Ive sent all my friends & mother. :)

Sashana Knight Very good customer serive, I forgot his name that help us get a last min cake for my sis little wedding ceremony, he was so patient and helpful even though it was is first time doing a little decoration it came out exactly out we wanted

Laniah J Great customer service! They have literally everything you’ll need when it comes to hair! So many varieties to choose from and if you need help or have questions they’re so informative and ready to assist you!

Ithica Nolan-Williams This is my absolute favorite place to go for my beauty needs. The service is fast, knowledgeable, friendly and just create an amazing shopping experience. Thank you all.

Simone Porter They always have what I need. I buy hair and hair products here all the time. Friendly staff too! They helped me figure out what hair I needed for my braided crochet and Fulani style. Inventory is always stocked too!

Sashana Knight Very good customer serive, I forgot his name that help us get a last min cake for my sis little wedding ceremony, he was so patient and helpful even though it was is first time doing a little decoration it came out exactly out we wanted

Jodi jensen Love having my sola. Casey is very responsive and great to work with. Zac the owner likes to get to know the whole team too. And they are always interested in hearing how things are going. Sola offers great ways to get education. Online or traveling to different events. I would definitely check out the team. Our Sola in Renton has a wide variety of services. Highly trained hairstylist, Barbers, Lash techs, Skin care and more.. Bonus to have Marshalls and World Market close. I’m Jodi. I’m in room 2. I would love to get to know you!

darren ryan This is a very nice place except for 1 thing. Half of the businesses leave their doors open so it was very loud in the room i was in. Not to mention some of the rooms with their doors open were playing music pretty loud. Not very classy at all for the ones who keep their doors closed!

Kat C. Im so glad I found Anna Cournoyer! From facials to hair, she does it all! If I could give her more than 5 stars, I would. Thank you Anna for the complete pampering package!

Bryanne Potoski Super cute interior & conveniently located in the Renton landing.

Santana White There is a room up front to the left playing real loud music disturbing the peace almost everytime i come there as im getting my weekly haircut , especially as soon as you open the door thats not the first thing i want to hear , if my barber wasnt there i would definitely go somewhere else.

David Glick This barber shop in on Coast Guard Seattle so you will need a military ID to get on base. Grace is a very courteous professional barber. She used 1.5 clippers on the side and scissors on top. Excellent attention to detail. Hair cut $20. I then opted for the shampoo and hot oil neck massage for $13. I paid her $40 and walked out the door feeling like a million bucks! Excellent hair cut and a fair price.

Kinzler Maria I went today and I loved how my eyebrows look now. It was quick , no appointment needed and the staff is friendly. I will definitely come back to that place!

Ruth Masters Great technicians. sometimes the lot gets full but theres parking on the far side of the building. Very reasonably priced.

Corinna de Jong Very fast service. In and out of there in under 5 minutes. Cheap price for threading. Workers are nice.

Mycaiah Berkebile I cannot tell you how long I’ve been looking for a solid threading place who is consistent, reputable, INEXPENSIVE and EFFICIENT. Roop took me in her chair right away. I gave very basic information as to what I was looking for and my concerns about my skin sensitivity. She did her job FLAWLESSLY within 15 minutes ! my eyebrows have NOT LOOKED THIS GOOD in almost TWO YEARS (and I’m very picky about my eyebrows). Then, I got to the counter and she said it was only $15?!!?! SOLD. Coming here for all of my eyebrow + waxing needs from now on.

Maria Santacruz Love love love how my hair came out. Diane did a fabulous job from start to finish. Was very professional and knew exactly what would work for my hair. Definitely coming back for retouch up.

Gabriella Estrada DO NOT come here ladies! I had came here for a blowout and was immediately happy with how affordable the prices were and wanted to support a local business. However, once I got done with the lady who washed and conditioned my hair (who did a decent job, a little rough though) another lady came to help her blow dry me. I will mention I have long thick hair, so I wasn’t surprised. They didn’t even brush my hair first, NO heat protectant and instantly started blow drying! When I asked about heat protectant the lady said because it was a ceramic curling iron “it wasn’t necessary” I had to end up de tangling part of my hair myself, my ends were fried and really dry and my hair was not smooth at all. While I did have curls In my hair, it was not evident I had just gotten a blowout at a salon. I was EXTREMELY disappointed and will not be returning. While it was an affordable price, I do expect good quality service. The lady kept complaining about how thick my hair was and it just didn’t make me feel comfortable. This was supposed to be a self care treat for myself and my experience was ruined.

Firedews Mosa I am going to come here every time! They did my daughter’s hair amazingly!

Henry Nguyen The price is fairly reasonable. I love the service here. They’re fast, friendly and reliable.

Maria Santacruz Love love love how my hair came out. Diane did a fabulous job from start to finish. Was very professional and knew exactly what would work for my hair. Definitely coming back for retouch up.

Simona Midrigan The worst haircut and experience I’ve ever had. The lady who cut my hair did not say hi hello or anything. She was super rough, ripping my hair with the brush. Cut my bangs very short and very uneven. Did not ask me my preferences and seemed to just want me out of the chair rather than doing a good job. I’m not very picky because I know we’re human and hair grows but this was beyond my expectations of a bad haircut.

Zinah alshammari The place is clean but the prices on the board are not exactly realistic. She raises the price according to her desire, depending on the person. - She does not have a good style in dealing with the customer. Im talking to her. She leaves me and goes and says: Im tired. I dont have time to talk." She asks me to go to another salon that speaks the same language as me. Its a very disgraceful approach and he has no respect. On the other hand, what do you think about this bad approach? The worst treatment ever. If all the salons were closed and only this salon remained, I wouldnt I come to them again.

Dawn Only come here if you are looking for “bad hair day” styles. This salon seems to be doing that on a daily: uneven cuts, not listening to the customer’s requests, rough, felt like I was being choked, and terrible service.

Sumi N It was my first time going to j&k hair salon, I was feeling happy by each customer service like hair cut and hair coloring really nice. Besides It was so clean and nice even the workers were kind and polite.
