    Alicia was fantastic, and my hair looks phenomenal. The color is amazing! I'm very happy!

    My new short "do" after cutting (and donating) 15.5". I LOVE it!

    Chelsea had always made me feel welcome and always answers my questions. If she doesn't have the nasser she tells me. She never tries to up-sell me on anything I don't want but makes great recommendations and why she makes those recommendations. I just cut off 15.5" of hair and she did an incredible job giving me a short cut that works with how I like to do my hair but also what I am willing to do with it.

    TL;DR - GO SEE ALISHA. Go to chemelsalon.com, take the incredibly thorough questionnaire to match to a stylist, or just call them right now and ask to book with Alisha. You will be so happy. I am incredibly picky about my haircuts. My curly, course hair is equally picky about my haircuts. I had a wonderful stylist in Arizona, and now that I had moved back to Washington, my search was on to find someone new. After going to about three other salons over the course of about a year, I was still disappointed. I then happened upon Chemel Salon's website through Google. They have a fantastic questionnaire that will pair you with one of their stylists. I took the quiz and was paired with Alisha. I then didn't think anything of it, or take any immediate action, but the next day received a call from salon rep, Sage, regarding my questionnaire. Sage was great! And I was incredibly impressed that they were reaching out to me. She asked me some more questions, and soon I had an appointment set up for a haircut with Alisha. At my haircut appointment, I was not disappointed. Alisha took a good 30 minutes or so asking me all kinds of questions about my past haircuts, what I liked and disliked about them, how I style my hair, how I prefer to have it cut... etc. She also educated me along the way. I was blown away. After my haircut (which I was superbly happy with) I scheduled to come back and get color done, also with Alisha. That appointment went just as fantastic as the first. She was thorough, educational, and fun. I love my color. I am so happy to say that this salon, and their lovely team are a gem. GO SEE THEM. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, GO SEE ALISHA.

    My amazing haircut that has me feeling super confident! Thanks Aubrey :)

    While I did have to wait a little past my appointment & my back got wet from the wash I really enjoyed my appointment. I'm so happy with my results! Aubrey did such an amazing job, I showed her one picture and she nailed it. Can't wait for my next appointment to lighten my ends! Also the salon was really nice and they offer you a drink when you arrive; water, tea or coffee. Found my permanent salon for the remainder of my time in Washington!

    Alisha is absolutely amazing. Upon my first appointment she started with a consultation. We went over what I do and do not like about hair. I showed her my Pinterest hair board to show her different things I like. She told me what would work well with my features and my hair's existing condition. From there she gave me a cut that looked great and went over what products to use to get the healthier hair that I desired. My next visit I threw her a curve ball. I wanted to take my hair from a coppery brown with highlights to a gray/purple color I found. She informed me of the process and told me that it would take a few visits to achieve. She would need to lighten my hair over a few processes but would make me look fantastic in the meantime. As a make up artist she also gave me makeup tips to go with my new hair color. I got a lot of compliments on the blonde hair and this week we were able to achieve the color I desired! I am so excited to show it off. Alisha has so much passion for hair, she is so relatable and authentic. Our conversations start with hair and we end up talking about kids, travel plans, restaurants, and shopping. On top of being a great Stylist, Alisha is also a great mentor to the up and coming Stylist. She takes the time to show them different techniques and include them in the process and takes note when they do something well. Chemel just has a great atmosphere. It makes such a difference when you are around people that passionately love what they do, enjoy their team and their clients. I absolutely recommend them.

    I have to come on here to reiterate... Celia is a true gift! I am coming up on my one year…read morefacial-versary... can we believe?? My skin has improved in ways I didn't know were possible. I always get horrible acne around my period but it has reduced so much and heals in record speed any time I see her. My skin is brighter and, although I'm happy to embrace my 30s, I feel truly blessed that she is helping me stay hydrated, appropriately exfoliated and prepared (spf check points) I'm writing this yearbook post because I just spent a week+ in Texas and I can't tell you how many compliments I got on my skin.... I'm talkin daily... and not just small compliments, people were wanting to conversate about my skin... I was almost embarrassed from the attention but was like ...let me tell you about my esthetician Follow her insta to see when she is taking clients... esthetics.by.celia

    I've never had such an awful experience with a facialist in my life as I did today. I was scheduled…read morewith Laurinda; I've never met her nor had I been to the spa. When I walked in there was no introduction or greeting, she immediately asked me who I was seeing and I didn't remember her name since it was my first time there. She laughed when I said I didn't know and then asked if I needed the bathroom. I said yes, and turned to my left (which was the treatment room) and her response was extremely condescending about that not being the bathroom. Again, I've never been there. A quick "hello, my name is Laurinda, this is where you will receive your facial today" is all it would've taken. It was a very negative first impression. About ten minutes into the facial treatment she ripped my nose hoop out and claimed she didn't know I had it. It's a large gold hoop, it's very obvious. Most facialist ask me to leave it in because with it out, my skin is technically "open" and it's a liability, so I was relying on her professionalism to handle that request. She didn't apologize but just stated, "If I would've know that was there I'd have asked you to take it out." If she would've introduced herself to me at the start of my appointment and looked at my face, she would've seen my nose hoop. But somehow it was my fault. I'm a little worried that she was less than foot from my face during the treatment and claimed she couldn't see it. Ten minutes later she proceeded to rip out my earring on my right ear. She then blamed that on me (again) saying that my earrings were weird because they had a back post. I'm pretty sure 95% of earrings have posts. She then proceeded (without my permission) to aggressively rub my ears. I asked her to stop because it hurt and she said "I'm trying to feel your earrings to understand what I'm working with." I realized when I got home that my ear was actually bleeding. Overall, the whole experience was extremely uncomfortable and quite frankly painful at times. I regret not leaving sooner. This was a Mother's Day gift and it left me more stressed and upset than when I walked in. When I left the treatment room after getting dressed she was no where to be found. 0/10 for customer service.

    Five stars for this business as it is super professional from scheduling to the staffs…read moreprofessionalism. I had a major hair emergency this weekend and needed it fixed right away so I could go back to work feeling confident. I called a bunch of hairstylists on Instagram but no one had any same day availability which I understood completely, but I had to keep searching. I decided to look for a formal salon on google and Chroma was the first suggestion. Living in Des Moines, Tacoma seemed a little far but I was in a crisis so I booked the slot for 1 pm with Terry Ross. I was nervous because the person who ruined my hair shattered my trust. When I walked in, I immediately noticed the establishment was modern with its open floor plan, clean and both customers and hairdressers all seemed happy, engaged in conversation while working - immediately a good vibe. Terry acknowledges me and as soon as she's finished with the previous customer she comes over to me to take a look at what she's dealing with (a color disaster to say the least) Terry really took her time to evaluate what was done to my hair by the previous person. She went over the details of what she planned on doing to correct my hair color making sure to address all my questions in the process. We had a really lovely time chatting while she worked on the foils. She checked the foils often and made sure to make me feel comfortable throughout the entire visit. The outcome was unbelievable to me because when I walked in I looked like a fox (not in a good way) and Terry sent me out the door with a high level of confidence in my appearance. This is my new girl, she is so talented!!!! Chroma Salon in Tacoma is now my favorite

    Sarah L. is fantastic. She got me in (on super short notice) after I had a terrible haircut…read moreelsewhere. Sarah listened, asked questions, listened some more, and was very clear on my hopes before she ever picked up scissors. I don't speak "hair" and she went over what end results I'd see in different scenarios. The best part is that I have a really good haircut now, and Sarah let me know after I live with it, if there are any changes I should come back in. She stands by her work. 10/10, go see her!
