Let's just say I immediately regretted it and quickly booked another appointment with Safiya. At SJ House of Hair, you're truly paying for the entire experience. Safiya is so personable, kind, and attentive - she really listens to what you want. I can talk the entire appointment and before I know it, hours have flown by. I'm always so comfortable in her chair, even during the shampoo - it's just such a relaxing experience. (No neck pain) She offers snacks, drinks, and creates such a welcoming atmosphere. Honestly, it feels like a really good friend is doing my hair. I always feel safe, seen, and heard when I'm in her chair. I'm so happy to be back with her.

I stumbled upon this salon on Vargo! It's just so much easier to book an appointment online ,…read moreinstead of calling and sometimes the place of business forgets to put you on their schedule. So I booked an appointment with Ashley. From the recent reviews she's the go to girl! So I get to my appointment & open the door it's a spacious salon with awesome products for your hair, friendly staff & they help you right away! After my experience with Ashley all I have to say is : This is my forever go to Salon, it's so hard nowadays to find " the one hair stylist " that's friendly, knows EXCATLY what you want & executes your vision. I've paid from expensive to cheap for a easy hair cut no one ever did right, until I met the amazing Ashley ! Ashley has this huge mirror she puts you in front of so you can see why she's going to cut your hair a certain way to get what you WANT, she completely did that. You can really see she cares about her customers with the way she treats you , talks to you & puts in the hard work with your hair, if you don't feel satisfied she will ask you and see what she can do too make it better, she even told me after my haircut if I feel like something I don't like I can come back and she will take care of it, she wants me to feel absolutely happy. But I was so satisfied with her work. Finally someone cut my hair short and it didn't make me look crazy! I felt cute and my hair was so soft and easy to manage. I will definitely be coming back to Ashley! I got the blow out and haircut for a good price $55 that's cause I included a $5 tip. It is worth every single cent. If you need an awesome stylist who will give you want you want with quality and takes their time , please give this place a try! Especially with Ashley no regrets at all!

I actually joined Yelp so that I could write a review of this place…read more I am a middle-aged woman who has lived in a lot of different places (two states, 8-10 cities), and I will say without any hesitation that the haircut I received from Tamie at First Impressions was the best haircut I've ever gotten in my life! Before she started, she and I sat and discussed what I wanted, what my goals were for the haircut (ease of care, whether I was in the professional world or working retail, etc.), and then she looked very closely at my hair type, the coloring jobs I had had done earlier, my face shape, etc. What I ended up with was a color that looks natural, a haircut that is not only easy to take care of but looks amazing, and a hairstyle that works with what my hair naturally wants to do and still looks great. Please note that I did not write this review until after having gone back two more times for haircuts to see if the first time was a fluke. It is not! Tamie continues to take excellent care of me, and my hair continues to look wonderful. It's a nice, big, clean facility in a convenient Auburn location as well.

I recently went through many bad experiences with my last two salons. But Rachel is by far the best…read moreI've ever had. Bare with me, and Ill tell you why. The first one, in Enumclaw (who is now out of business!) started out great then it turned into the worst service I've ever had(go figure!)There was the time I saw the hair color on my forehead in globs and told her about it to prevent skin stain and she shrugged at me and said, it'll go away just use alcohol. I asked her to quickly remove it, and she rolled her eyes at me and shrugged saying, I guess so. Are you kidding me?! Then, my hair starts to fall out. I'm only 32 at this time. I stopped going after numerous appts ended with bad cuts, bad color, and bad service. Second one was a salon that was highly recommended on Facebook, particularly a certain stylist who was young but showed amazing skills. It started out great, one of the best cuts I've ever had (at first) then my hair fell out in clumps. I was getting a receding hairline! I cried to her and said I didn't know what was wrong, I stopped washing daily, stopped all heat tools, and used high end hair products, yet nothing changed. She had the nerve to look at me and say that I was doing something wrong and that there was nothing she could do, but that I needed to buy more products from her and proceeded to keep dying my hair even though I said I didn't think the dye would be a great idea, but she said it was fine, she wanted to cover my grey. I trusted her. Hair keeps falling out. Then, I was late to an appt once and had to cancel another appt on the same day for an emergency. The receptionist called me and said very rudely that they don't put up with this and if I was to re book I had to pay 50% first. I found this highly ridiculous. Never going back. That's when I found Rachel. I emailed Rachel that my hair was falling out and no one had seemed to care, I felt unheard and treated rudely by my last two stylists, and I needed some real help. Someone with more experience. She immediately emailed me back with compassion and told me that she would be happy to see me asap. I saw her that week, and she immediately noticed how brittle my hair was, despite no heat applied for months, and multiple creams applied every morning. She said it was not my fault, said to trust her with her sensitive but very effective dyes and I did. My hair has stopped falling out! My color is the best its ever been, my cuts are done so professionally, styled to perfection, people stop me and say how gorgeous my hair is all the time. I want to cry writing this, I cant tell you enough how much she has changed my life, and my hair. I'm sorry for the long review, but I really want you all to know how much she has changed my life. I hope she stays around for a very long time, cause shes a keeper! Thank you Rachel!! Lindsay

I've come here twice now for a haircut with Emma as my stylist, my hair is still a work in progress…read moreso I'll update my review when Emma has finished working her magic :) First a little about me... I'm a (newly) retired Air Force officer. I used to be perfectly satisfied with the $5 hair cuts I'd get on base 25 years ago. The haircuts would take just a few minutes and I'd be on my way and good to go for at least 8 weeks. After I left active duty and went into the reserves I transitioned to the places like SuperCuts were I was also perfectly happy with my haircuts for about $20 including tip. Then recently a buddy of mine said he had a "hair appointment". I initially thought: "What? Dudes have hair appointments? What's this about?" When I saw his finished haircut I was intrigued - I asked him about it and he gave me the card for this salon. I thought I'd give it a shot and so far I'm glad I did. Emma and Tre Sorelle are a cut above anything like Super Cuts (no pun intended). Instead of something like "our records show you're a # 2 on the sides and a #4 in the back", Emma actually remembered me when I returned for my second haircut month after my first. At that point, my hair had not grown much and she recommended we make that session just a free touch up to clean up the sides and back. My first haircut was $35 plus tip and worth every penny. It was the best my hair had looked in, well, ever. She said to give it three full haircuts for her to achieve her vision as it takes time to shape the growing patterns of my hair, but I can see its heading in the right direction. Emma is super personable and great to talk to during my haircut which also included a shampoo before and rinse afterwards. I also had to reschedule my second haircut the day of due to an unexpected conflict and the salon was totally cool about it and got me in the following Saturday. I'm already looking forward to coming back for my second "full" haircut in a week or two.

The worst coloring experience I've ever had. A month ago, I had an appointment in this salon. I've…read morebeen using the same brand for coloring my hair for more than 9 years. I used to do my hair in another salon in Tacoma. But my colorist went on vacation and her substitute didn't seem to get what I wanted. So, I decided to try another salon. To begin with I asked for a color chart to show exactly what I want. The colorist Sarah (the owner) said that she is "not comfortable" with showing me the color chart. It was surprising for me, but I managed to find a picture of me with the color I wanted on my hair. Then I asked which developer she was going to use. That was very important for me to discuss because there were previous unfortunate cases when colorists used the wrong developer, and I ended up with the "hot roots" and didn't have time to fix that. The colorist was very reluctant to discuss that as well. Then I asked her about the formula she was going to make and again got the same answer that she is "not comfortable" with telling me that. It was so weird! I used to discuss my options with the colorists and know exactly what was being put on my hair. Nobody ever had any issues with that. But I decided to agree with that as well because I really needed to do my hair, and I'd waited for that appointment 2 weeks and I had to pay a nanny to stay with my kid while I was on that appointment. I didn't want to waste that time and money for nothing. In a couple minutes another colorist came to me and said that they were not going to do my hair because they were again "not comfortable" with that. That was unbelievable! It really pissed me off! I demanded an explanation about what was really going on! After some hesitation they told me that they decided that I was a competitor, that I most likely had a license and that I would probably steal their professional secrets! Because I was asking too many questions! I wonder how I was supposed to steal anything if I agreed to not knowing the formula that they were going to use?! That was so outrageous and ridiculous! At the end they threatened me to call police if I didn't leave the salon. Ladies, if you are so afraid of competitors that allow yourself to treat your clients like this, I can assure you that you'll be out of business very soon!
