Headlines Salon is the only salon I'll go to in Seattle (and I'm picky!). They've recently gone through an interior renovation and it's now even better! Brae is my stylist, though there are a dozen others that I'd trust. They use exceptional products (Bumble & Bumble) and have an organized/efficient staff. I also love going to the U-Village - so it's a win-win - and I always look forward to my appointments (every 7 weeks, on the dot). read more

Maryell has been cutting and styling my hair for several years. She is a skillful stylist and always does a good job. I sometimes take her a picture of how I want my hair cut, or we discuss ideas, and she makes my hair look good. I am a "senior citizen" and don't want to have an "old lady's haircut". Maryell makes sure that that does not happen. Front desk staff are welcoming and courteous. It is always a pleasure to visit with Maryell and leave with a pretty haircut. read more

Their stylists are fairly skilled for the most part. Their rates vary based on returning clients. Their service is generally very friendly. I am writing this review as a returning customer of 3 years and being bumped back due to another client going over. They were courteous to give me a 20 minute warning saying they would run another 20 minutes late. I arrived 15 after my appointment because of this. They still were not ready and could not give me a clear time when they would be ready. So I walked around a bit arriving 10 minutes later. They told me when I returned that I would have to be bumped to a later time. What type of customer service is that? This has happened on more than one occasion where they would have to bump me. And passing 45 for a men's haircut, I would expect good service with that. read more

The haircuts I get at Headlines are wayyyyy better compared to ones I get from other salons, and I've frequented plenty before encountering this one. Hair Styling/stylist: Ask for Stephany because she is a phenomenal hair stylist, which means she's got an artistic flair for hair styling, is an attentive listener, and gives great hair maintenance suggestions too. Under her care, my look went from drab to fab! ( yeah, i just said that). On top her great hair techniques, I absolutely love that she's genuinely charismatic and interesting to talk to. *(Stephany, if you are reading this: They sell kettle corn at the Fremont market. GO GET SOME GIRL!!)* Cost/ Economics: The services are absolutely reasonably priced(I've only received hair cuts and foiling). Nothing outrageously expensive though I would still think it'd still be worth it :-) Atmosphere: Friendly and professional. The decor is very simple and functional (though i could care less how it looks). Receptionists: I've never had an issue with the receptionists, and I like 'em because they're not artificially and overly friendly or happy, which can be awkward. I also like how they call a few days to remind me of my appointment. Not all places do that, and I find it super helpful. anywho, GO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND ASK FOR STEPHANY. read more

A hair salon can only be as good as the stylist and in the case of Jenna, you can't get any better. She is top notch and you can't possibly go wrong with her. She is new to Headlines, but has been working as a stylist for many years. She listens carefully to what you want and even remembers what she did last time. Not only is she a real pro, but she's also personable and a great conversationalist. (and guys, she's very pretty). Of course, I can only speak to her skills as a men's stylist, but she has told me that she's ever better at doing women's hair. Because she's new, her rates are very low, so you get the great deal of a veteran stylist at newbie rates. read more

Young cuts my hair and I must say, it looks fantastic. She helped me get 'shampoo commercial' hair and I think she can do the same for you. Plus, she's really funny and she'll tell you straight up what and what won't work for your head. read more

I've been going to Headlines specifically to see **Christine Ramsey** for several years and she is amazing. Christine works from my descriptions and photos I bring in, but adapts the cuts to my hair type and face shape. After spending lots of money on blah or even bad cuts elsewhere, I found Christine by chance and I've never left unhappy. She's also able to cut hair wet or dry, which means she shapes my hair so that weird flip thing it usually does on the right side doesn't happen -- magic! And her prices are actually reasonable as opposed to others in Seattle who want triple digits just to trim your bangs. I've been trying not to go nuts with exclamation points, but CHRISTINE RAMSEY is an AMAZING STYLIST!!!!!!!!!!!! 100% Recommend. read more

The place is clean all of the stylists are friendly. I've been coming here 4 times a year for the past 5 years and have yet to have a bad experience. I've gotten my hair done by several different people here and all of them are very talented and know what they're doing. The location is great it's right in the village so you can go shopping after. read more

I went to Headlines Salon after giving a stylist at another salon too many chances to do my hair well with no improvement. I was starting to think I would never have good hair again & tried blaming it on the weather, the influx of premature grey. Another curly haired friend suggested Jered, whom she's always been happy with. He whipped my hair from traffic cone head to curly bob with some bounce. He's also great at suggesting color. As long as I'm living in Seattle, I will go to Jered. read more

Just got back from a great experience at Headlines Salon. The receptionist was friendly and helpful, and Stephaney gave me one of the best cuts I've ever had. Nice, clean interior, reasonable prices. I'm not usually loyal to one hair salon, but I will definitely be returning here next time I need a cut. Not everyone knows how to work with my curly hair, but Stephaney nailed it! Happy customer :) read more

I had Jonik to help me cut my hair. She was new to the salon so I was a little bit worried at first, but I was really glad to have her. Jonik did a great job and was really nice to talk to. Thank you Jonik! read more

Jered Burton has been cut'n my locks for I don't know (7??) years now! He is THE BEST. He is professional, has extensive coloring experience (I just started coloring last year- super nervous to start), and fabulous customer service. You won't find someone better. Because I talk about him so much my Mom has gone, 2 of my aunts, 2 cousins and another friend. I highly recommend Headlines in U Village and Jered Burton. You can't go wrong. read more

Briauna does an amazing job with cuts and color. I've gotten so many compliments on my hair cut and color!

Vivian was so awesome and sweet!!! She took me last minute and gave me advice on how to take care of my hair. She was very informative and did such a fabulous job handling my crazy mane - I have 3b/3c hair for reference. I went in for a wash and blow out to check my length and she definitely made me a returning customer!! The price was very reasonable and I'll be back for more, possibly a color in the near future! read more

I recently went here to get my hair dyed, cut and colored and I really could not have been happier with the results! I saw a lady named Emily who was absolutely fabulous! She was incredibly patient and listened carefully and really took the time to understand exactly what I wanted. I also got my hair deep conditioned due to some damage from coloring and my hair came out incredibly soft and silky. She also does not charge for bang trims, which is a huge plus!!! Definitely recommended!! read more

Where did Kenneth go? 5 stars for him--but now my hair's a mess. I'll only go back if he's there. I've been to 2 other sylists there and they made my normaly-easy-to-style curly hair a mess. The owner was professional and gave me a refund--but I still have my hair to live with. Please let me know if anyone knows where Kenneth went. read more

PENNY is AMAZING. She's been cutting my hair for about 3 years now and has never disappointed. She's precise and best of all does not get scissor happy! I mostly go in a for a cut/trim and have been happy 100% of the time! read more

I am very picky but have been happy here for years now. Great staff, very friendly and Jered is amazing. My son and Mom have also been happy with their haircuts here. read more

My hair looked okay after the cut, but very pricey I thought for the small amount if time she spent. I will try again as the stylist was nice and I did like my cut. read more

I started coming here about 6 months ago after only having horrible hair experiences at some other bigger salons in Seattle. I absolutely LOVE getting my hair done by Jared! He knows how to work with blonde hair and listens to what you want. He makes sure you're happy with the cut and color, and always says to come back if you decide at a later point you aren't happy. I wouldn't dream of going anywhere else! read more

Love this place. I also get a great look here. Muriel is awesome, she always make me look wonderful, fierce, and strong. Thank you.... It would be awesome maybe to add to that next level, adult time happy hour, nice glass of wine, cosmo as you sit and process that wonderful beauty... Adults only of course... would be relaxing and a lot of fun. read more

GO SEE ZACK MUNDS, NOW! I've followed Zack a few places, but couldn't follow him across country. Guess what? He's back! Zack is smart, fun, energetic, kind, caring and KNOWS his stuff. I'm a long haired brunette and he keeps it my hair in check, his color is on point, and he is a master at styling. I get tons of compliments on my locks. His hours are super workable, too. Go! You won't be disappointed! read more

Great service. Solid price point for Seattle area. Christine is amazing with Asian hair especially with balayage! She walks you through her process and always keeps your hair health in mind. I'd recommend her to anyone. read more

I have been going to headlines for a few years now and I have always had a wonderful experience. In the past I have seen Christine for balayage/ haircuts. However, I ended up seeing Brooke for my most recent visit as Christine was unavailable. As someone who is naturally brunette but has been dying their hair lighter for years I told Brooke I wanted to get back to my natural color. She helped me get back to a more low-maintenance hair-routine. Thank you so much, Brooke! I will definitely be coming back. read more

I had a great experience with Isa! He was really able to bring out my natural curls with little fuss or product. Highly recommend.

If there was a negative star, that is what i would give them. This is the worst hair salon I ever been. Probably the damage they brought to my hair and face won't be reversible by writing this review, but I want to save someone from a lot of travel and frustration. I had an appointment to diet my hair and get a hair trim. The stylist started working on my hair with out telling me what she was doing. By the time i realized, i was too late. Apparently, she was bleaching my hair. The next thing I knew my hair was smoking. My head felt it was on fire. Then she freaked out and stated to rinsing me while she started to tell me what she was doing. It was too late. My hair was really damaged. I was really angry, but decided to stay calm. Then she started to coloring my hair. I asked dark copper color, but for some unknown reason she put bright orange color. At this point I was in shock, but I still decided to stay calm realizing freaking out won't do any good for both of us. The next step was to cut my hair. Since the bleach damaged my hair terribly, she decided to cut my hair short. The funniest part is i told her how much I don't like short hair. Once she realized the hair is damaged; she tried to cover it up by cutting my hair too short with out consulting me. When I see how much she is taking of, I felt I need to speak up, so I ask her I just needed a trim not a short cut, and she said "she is cutting the hair that needed a cut" with a strong voice as if she is my boss and I needed to follow the order. Because she started cutting short already I just decided to go with her plans. I walked in with long vibrant hair, and I walked out with short, orange, and damaged hair. I am still in a state of shocked that they let me leave the shop like that. I decided to have a positive attitude since there is nothing I can do about it at that point.tho I politely told them how much I hate they. They said they will fix it the next day since there was no time to do it on the same day. I agreed to give them a second chance to work on my hair. The next day I got a call from them. It was the manager. She said they were not able to see me that day, and they want to reschedule. Because of the hair color they put on my hair, I was not able to go to work. I explained my situation to the manager how difficult it was for me to present myself with that hair, and until they do something about it; I was unable to perform my job or go anywhere. Unfortunately she seemed not to care at all. She said she has no time to discuss, but she just want me to know they can't do it that day, but reschedule me to next day. Then she said she can return my money, and I can take my business somewhere else. At this point I just lost it. So I said, sure I will take my business somewhere else, but sue them for the damage they brought to my hair and face. Now, I am stuck with damage, dry, and very short hair (I got the color changed somewhere else). They are unprofessional and inexperienced. I will never go back again and report them to BBB. read more

Hair dye gone awry.... front desk staff need work on not looking like they hate you through their smile. Good for a blow out that's cheap

Allison is a fantastic stylist but the customer service I received from a receptionist and the owner was atrocious! Allison saved the day, though, working out a compromise that made all involved happy and me leaving the salon with gorgeous hair. Allison is great but try to avoid the front desk and owner as much as possible! If you ever need any special customer service, you'll be up the creek. read more

Went here twice for a haircut. If you aren't particular about who cuts your hair you can get an appointment quickly which was important to me. I was able to get same day appointments both times. Both times the hair cuts were good/solid (I asked for layer haircut) and the stylist was friendly. I would use them again. read more

Bill Brewer is amazing! He's great at figuring out what's best for your face, lifestyle, hair type. He's totally fun and left me feeling beautiful! read more

Stephanie is the best hair stylist I have ever been too! No matter what hair style picture I bring in, she is always able to duplicate it. Right now she is helping me grow my gray out (a scary experience!) and her suggestions and support have been invaluable. I would recommend her to anyone. And she is very nice! read more

This salon only gets 1 star b/c I couldn't score it any lower. Mauri (spelling?) totally ruined my color. She managed to turn my blonde hair into a reddish-black mess. The color was totally over-saturated and the cut was horrendous. Upon my immediate objections that the "color" looked nothing like the light brown picture I showed her, she suggested I rinse it a few times with Tide since it was only a demi-permanent color. Apparently this salon is only Bumble and Bumble because they move a ton of product at their location, but I can't imagine they were trained by anyone with any hair training! At least the receptionist was nice when I demanded my money back. It has taken months to get my hair back to normal! Stay away! read more

I dropped in to the salon one day for a cut after not having one in ages. I was able to call in one afternoon and get right in, which was great. I believe my stylist was Susan. She was friendly and funny, and had great ideas for my hair, which was in an awkward spot as I'd been growing out my bangs. The cut I received was fantastic, and it was honestly probably the best haircut I've had. Because I was so impressed, I continued coming to Susan. She maintained the same cut a few times. A few months later, things went downhill. One appointment, she suggested trying something new with my bangs. Because I have a cowlick right at my forehead, and I wear glasses, bangs tend to lay funny on me if they aren't cut well. These just didn't look right afterward--which I knew upon leaving the salon, but hoped that with a few days of styling experiments, they would work. They didn't, so I called back up and came in to have them redone. Susan was great about this, and they ended up looking better, but not as good as previous cuts. My next and final salon experience was a disaster. As I was arriving at U Village for the appointment, I got a call from the receptionist to ask to delay my appointment 30 minutes because Susan was still with a previous client. I decided to wait, and came back. I was delayed again--all told for a wait of about 1.5 hours. I should have gone home, but just really wanted to get it done. I should have gone home when Susan asked if another stylist could do my hair (the one that she trusted--because he cuts hers), but by then I had invested so much time waiting already. I didn't, and he clearly didn't know how to do the cut I wanted, and it showed. The layers were uneven and layed oddly--a huge chunk was missing from the left side, and it was obvious. At one point, Susan came over to try to fix it, but even that didn't work. I pointed out that it didn't look right, and she said that, of course it wasn't going to look the same as it did the first time. Well, it wasn't remotely close. I could have gone back and asked for a fix, but after being passed off and having my complaints ignored, I just decided to go back to my old salon, even though it was further away. It took about 6 months for my hair to grow out enough that the weird cut didn't show anymore, thankfully before my wedding. read more

I have had 3 haircuts there and I always get unsolicited compliments. Bill is my guy, he is experienced. I usually tell him to what he thinks will work based on my life style and he delivers. read more

I switched to Headlines because I trust only Brae to "do" my hair. She has been my hair stylist for many years now and always does a perfect job. She really knows how to cut thin, baby fine hair to give it maximum body and shape AND gives me natural highlights that never look brassy or too golden for my skin tone. I am very fair and before Brae, the color was always too warm for my skin tone. Truly excellent! If you haven't been to the salon in awhile, try it again. Brae really knows her business. She will also listen to your concerns, so that you end up with a hair style that matches your expectations. read more

on June 6 I was scheduled for a partial foil at the headline salon, a rather simple and routine job. I was very pressed for time and had been told it would only take 1.5 hours. The stylist talked me into a toner after the foil that would only take 10 extra minutes. The toner was a very harsh smelling ointment that was left on not 10, but 20 min and caused me to experience some strange arrhythmia's and tachycardia and a headache for the next three and a half hours. This toner poses a potential medical risk. read more

Jared has been cutting my hair for around six years. I've tried several other stylists closer to my home but keep making the 30+ minute drive back to Headlines because he's an expert with fine, curly hair. He's the only stylist who gets it right. He works fast and we chat so much that I hardly know my hair has been cut until suddenly we're done. Highly recommended. read more

Mandy at Headlines Salon is great. I have seen her 5 times, and always the best cuts and styles I've ever had. She just did my hair for my daughters wedding, an updo with lots of curls; I was thrilled. My friend had the best cut of her life there while I was waiting. I have never been happier after years and years of searching for a good salon. read more

My daughter went here to get a colored streak in her hair and they took excellent care of her. The color has lasted very well, and many people have asked where she had it done. read more

I just went in as a new client on a work trip to Seattle, and Jered Burton gave me the best haircut I've had in years. I have long, wavy, frizzy hair that I often keep locked up in a bun. He gave me the cut and the product that made it look so pretty, I'll be wearing it down from now on. AND he's just super nice. I will be back to see him again for sure! So glad I came in!! read more
