Daniel Lee Got my hair done here and the staff knows exactly what needed to be done for my hair. They knew what they were doing, they were friendly and reasonably priced. Natasha the business owner is the best, she is super good at what she does.

J Brotherton I’m new to the city, and needed my hair done badly. I looked online for some black establishments that had good reviews. I made an appointment with Tasha on Tuesday for Friday at 1pm. I arrived at 12:57pm and Tasha was no where to be found. A customer in the parking lot immediately told me she wasn’t there, but I went inside anyway to have another beautician tell me that I “might wanna call her to let her know I’m here”. That was my sign to leave. The small establishment has barber chairs, salon chairs, pedicure soak chairs & chairs turned upside down… it’s a trifling mess!! Black folk, we gotta do better. Find a real salon & stylist to spend your money at. We are waaaay passed “beautyshops”!!

Dakota Lamar Shame on the owner Tasha for being at home when I was outside at your shop waiting. I had to call and find out because apparently caller id does not work and I traveled 26 miles for nothing. Did I mentioned I took my braids out and informed her I had something to do tomorrow. I sit in the parking lot and called every salon near me that google recommended which took over an hour. Shame on you Tasha and no I did not want gas money but my hair done especially after I called yesterday and you assured me u would be there. Zero stars and black women like u make it hard for others. Do better and I will never recommend anyone there well u would probably cancel and make up excuses and lies. Check other reviews this is what u do and it is sad.

Thistle Roses Tasha is amazing. Super friendly, gave great hair advice and didnt try to sell me something my hair wasnt going to love. She cut the cleanest line Ive had since getting a long hawk (about 7 years or so). That alone earns 5 stars and a repeat customer. Her shop is friendly and homey and she manages everyones needs in a timely yet casual enough to feel like its just natural. If youre looking for a good cut, style, process, anything having to to with hair you wont go wrong going here. Do it.

Theadora Martin I love this place. I came in and got braids. The braider was very professional and quick. Great customer service and very respectful. She was quick to respond when I inquired about booking and appointments. I am leaving satisfied and feeling beautiful. I will be back for more services.

J Johnson The staff was very welcoming immediately, offering a variety of delicious drinks. My stylist, Lindsey, is superb; she was able to bring out the natural curl and lift in my hair (I went from long hair to quite short, at least10 inches lopped off, and I love it!), and shes so lovely to talk to, really knows her craft. Also, my hair was long enough to be donated to make wigs for pediatric cancer patients. I booked for a Friday evening was out after about one hour. I highly recommend this salon.

Rhonda Schwab I love Gene Juarez, but particularly the person that does my coloring which is Nadia and then I have a Hope that does my hair cutting. Those are both excellent employees and I am so lucky that I have them. I’ve been going there for probably the last eight years or more. They do a fantastic job.

Melissa Bartlett First time at the salon just happen to be walking the neighborhood and found it and boy am. I glad I did new to the area from out of state. I’m always scared for someone to do my blonde without damaging my hair. I met Lily first and suggested someone that was really good with blonde color. I was booked with Tera for a full foil. She was very professional, took the time to listen To what I wanted and my hair is just perfect and healthy. She is so fun to talk to and made me feel really comfortable. Then, after the color I had a haircut, but with Daniella . She was able to translate what I wanted and went above and beyond Haircut. I’m so glad I found a home salon on the West Coast and I will definitely be back in a month when it’s time for me to get a refresh as far as the environment it’s very clean will let there’s good energy Everyone so nice and I really like the fact that the shampoo room is in the back just gives a little bit of privacy even though I had probably 50 foils in my head. I shared before during and after photos. Also the price was what I would usually would pay on the east coast! I liked that I wasn’t sold products just Professional service! I will be referring all my RN friends !!!

Mica Everett-Larson Kas has cut my hair a few time now and I have been happy each time. This last cut was a bob and it was amazing! It grew out so well. I could often just wake up and wear. Maybe the best cut of my life. I don’t dye my hair, so I can’t speak to that. She is tactfully honest when giving feedback on potential hairstyles. I’m so glad I found her!

Emily Woodward Such a cozy salon housed in a preserved craftsman! Nestled between Proctor and Stadium neighborhoods, so it’s central to most in North Tacoma. Amazing and friendly stylists who are knowledgeable in contemporary cuts.

Vanessa Darling Very easy to find and felt welcoming. The shop is clean and has a breezy light vibe. Chelsea gives the best shmullets! She is friendly, communicated well and made me feel heard. I will be seeing her from now on, she is so worth the drive from Des Moines

Lauren Honan Brooke is the absolute best at what she does. Her coloring techniques are perfection. I feel heard and catered too during the process of color and cut. She cares about her clients and it shows. I am thankful to be her client! She knows just what my hair and scalp need. A true professional. Also her product recommendations are always on point! 100% satisfied everything I go to The Beach House Salon!!

Raegan Wedin I can honestly say that booking with Amanda was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From the start, it was clear she truly cares about her clients’ hair goals. I put my full trust in Amanda, and she never disappointed. She was there for me during some of my lowest moments last year when I was struggling with my hair, and now, my hair has never been healthier. I’m so grateful for not just her amazing talent, but for her compassion as well.

Michelle Nguyen Exceptional service and extraordinary experience awaits you at Bella Simón Boutique Salon. I’ve known this powerhouse husband & wife duo for over a decade — Bella is one-of-a-kind, superstar colorist, Simon is remarkable expert with shears. The level of skill & talent these two possess is truly phenomenal. Bella & Simon are renowned hair stylists, doing business together for over 20 years! True masters of their craft, each in their own right, they’re passionate, creative and devoted, as ever. Styles varying from sophisticated, elegant to fun/dramatic iterations, Bella & Simon design my hairstyles to fit ME in every stage of my life. From funky, fabulous candy apple red, to even my cute pixie cut to prepare myself for chemotherapy treatments, Bella & Simon have been there for me every step of the way.

Elizabeth Morris TOP OF THE LINE Results as well as service! Simon knows his craft like no other hairstylist I have been to. He not only gave me the best cut I have ever had (making me feel like the "me" I was in search of), but did the same for a hair topper I brought in. I was understandably a bit nervous because it was quite expensive, but he kept the length I wanted and the cut gave it great movement resulting in a much more natural look. He pays such close attention to how the hair lyes on the head and cuts it accordingly. No one size fits all hair cut here. He is a master! He is also extremely knowledgeable about hair & hair issues (& a lot of other things as well - he is entertaining to just listen to). From things like cutting the hair in proportion to the body to issues that may be going on by the look of the hair strands. Bella is a sensation! She does coloring that must be inspired from the divine. I am not exaggerating in the least. She is a genuine master and she creates stunning works of art! That same topper I spoke of needed coloring to match my hair as well as some highlights & lowlights to make it look natural. She was spot on with the color match. Not only that, but Bella went the cautious route and darkened it gradually until it was to my liking instead of going too dark straight off the bath. This resulted in much more work for her which she graciously accepted. That was unexpectedly wonderful on its own (& quite unheard of) but what was truly incredible was that she was determined to continue adjusting the color until I "absolute loved it". She said that what she cared about most was ME & how I feel when wearing the topper. She said that if I dont leave her salon wearing the topper feeling absolutely fabulous wearing it, she would work on it until I did. Bella & Simon (while confident in their expertise) kindly cared about ME as opposed to most high end salons who care about THEMSELVES. They can be rudely patronizing and insist on you liking THEM & what they did because they know best & make you feel like you dont know what you are talking about. I was referred to BellaSimone Boutique and am so thrilled I was that I am referring anyone reading this to do the same. You will definitely leave happy ~ they will make certain of it!

jana jarvis I was referred to this salon by a stranger, as I was new to the area. I have a pixie cut (and very thick hair) and have found that this proves to be a challenge for most hairdressers and I often leave a salon feeling like I’m wearing a helmet instead of my own hair. BUT… Simon changed all that! His mastery of his craft is evident in the techniques he uses, the questions he asks and the way that he customizes the hair to the person sitting in his chair. I have a “cowlick(s)” at the crown of my head that has driven hairdressers in the past crazy, not understanding how to “make them lie down”. Simon, on the other hand, explained to me the “swirl” (doesn’t that sound better?) at the top of my head and followed its movement in cutting so that when he was done, I LOVED (for the very first time!) how the back of my head and hair looked! (Even received specific compliments about the back of my head! What?!) I get compliments every single day on my hair, young and old, men and women alike. Because my hair now looks like ME!!! Thank you, Simon! I couldn’t be more thrilled or recommend him more!

Madeleine Sweet Truly the best cut & color I have EVER received. The owners are extremely talented, kind and creative hairstylists. They work magic!! It is spendy, but any excellent cut / color is! Don’t kid yourself. Worth every dollar in my personal opinion. Definitely choose Bella Simon Salon, you will be so happy you did!

Julie Conaway This is the only place I recommend for everybody! Bella does a fabulous job coloring hair and is a master colorist. I have seen her work on not only me, but her other clients as well and she does an excellent job. Simon is a master hairdresser and he has taken me from long hair to short hair and now back to long hair again with expertise! I would not go anywhere else.

christina cornelio Booked my daughter for a haircut online. Online it is booked as a haircut and shampoo, her hair was not shampooed. Got home and let her shower, blow dried her hair and it was cut so choppy. I didnt expecting much given she has somewhat thick and wavy hair, but one side was way shorter and there were so many long strands I dont understand how those were missed.

My daughter’s stylist was Frankie and she was absolutely amazing! Very upbeat, great skills, positive attitude, talked with my daughter to make sure everything was to her liking and also mine. 20 out of 10 recommend Franki as your next stylist.

Hellen Mabiriizi If you’re tender headed this is not the place for you. I have had the same experience with 2 different braiders in the same place. They grip the hair too tight and unfortunately I was unable to even let them know because from the moment they touched my head to the last min they were on the phone back to back. The phone calls aren’t even the problem, it’s the lack of attention for them to realize they are hurting you and the spits. After my first experience, I chose to ignore everything but this second time the pain had me on the edge of that chair.

Private Reviewer I do not recommend Titi African Hair Braiding and Weaving. The quality of their work and pricing is inconsistent. I was quoted one price over the phone, but then charged a higher price in person after the appointment was completed. When I questioned the owner, Titi, about the price difference, she responded rudely and aggressively. While I liked the quality of the work and the braider who did my hair, I felt compelled to pay the higher price Titi requested rather than argue. The first two hair appointments with the braider were satisfactory, as the quality of work was excellent. However, the third appointment is where everything went wrong. Upon confirming the appointment the day prior, Titi was evasive in discussing the pricing via text, which should have been a red flag. I had worked with her in the past, so I assumed the communication issues were due to a language barrier. As usual, I requested a specific braider because I am very particular about my hair. When I asked Titi if that braider was available, she assured me she was. I then drove from Seattle all the way to Tacoma, because this braider is that good. Upon arrival, I did not see the requested braider or her children. I assumed she was running late and waited 60 minutes for her to show up. I even told Titi that I would come back another time if it wasnt a good day, but Titi insisted I sit down. Against my better judgment, I did. To my surprise, a different braider then started working on my hair once I was seated. The entire situation was unsatisfactory and a waste of my time. I expressed my dissatisfaction to Titi about the appearance and quality of the braids. Titi responded defensively, stating that redoing the style would cost her money since she would have to pay the braider again for their time. Ultimately, Titi rebraided the style herself a few days later. In hindsight, Titi, was aware that the requested braider would not arrive for the appointment but deceived me about her availability to keep money coming into her business.

Ana Hernandez Alexandria claims she can dye hair and work with blondes but gave a customer a chemical burn and ruined her hair. Alexandria and her friends have been continuously harassing that customer on her personal social media pages for sharing her experiences with clearly UNTRAINED staff. It’s completely unacceptable. Her story deserves to be told and Alexandria must take accountability for her actions. It’s ridiculous how anyone could defend a hair stylist that clearly did not 1. Turn down the customer if she felt the dye job was too difficult for Alexandria to do, which resulted in a terrible dye job. 2. Provide any type of repair service after completely ruining the customers hair. And 3. Overall acted completely UNPROFESSIONAL, from the moment the client sat in her chair to the moment she let her friends bash the client for sharing her experience. In fact, all of the friends should be ashamed of themselves. Imagine going to who you believe is a professional and getting MEDIOCRE work, I’m sure if that type of situation happened to Alexandria or any of her friends, they would be in a complete uproar, AS ANYONE SHOULD BE. Alexandria, you need to accept the consequences of your actions.
