Wow. Where to start about Sarah? I did not plan originally to have my makeup done professionally…read morefor my wedding until my hair stylist suggested it on my practice session. I was planning on doing myself. I don't wear a lot of makeup anyway, I can do it myself. Yadda yadda yadda. This is one of those decisions that in hindsight I would never question again. I wasn't really interested in futzing with fake eyelashes on my big day. We paid for a good photographer and even though I have good skin, every single imperfection and discoloration and anything will show up on the high quality photos and BOY AM I GLAD I sprung for getting my makeup done. I can tell as my photographer took pictures of me before and during my makeup application and I saw flaws and spots and pinkness in my skin (around my nose etc) that I never realized was there. All of that vanished under flawless makeup Sarah applied. Sarah took my suggestions for color and ran with them. She is meticulous and has the utmost attention to detail. She does not rush. She does not over do it. In the end my makeup was FLAWLESS and added beautiful shades of color to my face without looking like I was wearing too much. I have never felt so beautiful in my life. Her application of fake lashes will put any other makeup artist's to shame! I couldn't even tell where my lashes were and where the fake lashes were upon scrutinizing in the mirror up close. They would have stayed on for DAYS. So would the rest of the makeup. She uses MAC/high quality waterproof that will not come off in rain or with the inevitable tears, etc. On a side note, she is just the type of person you'll want on your big day. You really feel like she is focusing on every detail and she is not rushing or distracted. She really makes you feel like she is dedicated to doing her best work for you and 100% focused on you. She was early to our appointment. I could go on and on. Sarah has a working relationship with Honey Salon and can do makeup in their *beautiful* space. Very convenient as I did both my practice sessions and my big day hair and makeup in the same spot. She charges a fair price - you really get what you pay for with this one. Just hire her for your event. You will not regret it.

I found this place when we moved to the area almost 3 years ago, my stylist is just amazing and…read morehits it outta the park every time- I am very spontaneous with my hair and like to change it up a lot and do a good amount of at home fun and they are always there to celebrate my wins and fix up my misses while never making me feel bad or like I can't/shouldn't have fun at home if I want! I was very particular in wanting a salon and stylist that is inclusive and a welcoming place for those who don't fit the social binary and won't try to talk me out of a haircut because it's a more "manly" style or turn it into a pixie when I wanted a buzz- they listen, encourage and make your hair dreams come true!

On their website I selected any hairstylist for my appointment, which their website said was $70…read more Still expensive for a haircut but relatively reasonable for what I thought was a high quality and reputable salon. However this was not the case. I got there 5 minutes before my scheduled appointment, I ended up waiting 15 minutes after my appointment was scheduled for. Which is fine I get things happen, but once we started the haircut the stylist "washed" my hair for about 20 seconds. After that, we began the haircut, which lasted for about 30 minutes. They only used a razor, and I asked specifically for layers, which they didn't add just hacked away at it. My hair is uneven and shorter than what I asked for. When I went to go pay they charged me $90 plus tip. Which is fine if it was a quality haircut. For $100 I expect a quality experience and at the very least an acceptable haircut.

Sarah and Kristen did an incredible job for my wedding! They were professional and friendly, and…read morethe work they do is awesome! The first thing I noticed about them is they are so prompt in responding to communication. They are very skilled and they listened carefully to what I wanted and recreated it better than I imagined. They were flexible with my schedule for the trial, and they were on time for the wedding and hit the ground running. Between my family and bridesmaids, they busted out 11 services in under 4 hours! My makeup and hair stayed flawless all night. I would definitely recommend them to anyone else. Thanks, ladies!!

I really appreciated that Salon Tryst does on site hair and make up for as few as two people. I let my bridesmaids choose if they wanted to have hair and make-up done, which they appreciated. I booked Salon Tryst over email and was impressed how quickly they responded. They answered all my questions and made the process painless. On the day of the wedding my stylists, Leah and Anna, arrived precisely on time. It was so much fun having them in the room while we were getting ready. They joked and laughed with us while maintaining their professionalism. They listened to everyone's ideas for looks and adjusted if the final product was not what someone envisioned. Everyone was done on time and the whole process was relaxed and fun. I would highly recommend Salon Tryst, specifically Leah and Anna, to anyone in the Bellingham area looking for a wedding stylist.

I WOULD NOT TRUST ANNA ANDERSON WITH YOUR HAIR. When transitioning to blonde from my natural light…read morebrown color, she left my hair looking orange, and a very uneven coloring job. It was a complete disaster. Multiple friends commented that it looked like i got my hair coloring "3 months ago" as she did not color the base or roots. And she only gave 20% off for the fact that it took an hour longer than normal when she tried to correct all of her mistakes. Way overpriced and would not recommend her to anyone. She was not very professional either. 2 days later in Portland I got my color corrected. Please save your money, time and hair and don't choose her or the salon. None of the stylists were very friendly and welcoming.

The space has that calm, grounded energy you can feel in your shoulders before anyone even touches your hair they have lots of warm lighting, soft scents, and a sense of ease that makes you breathe a little deeper without thinking about it. The stylists here don't just "do hair." They listen. They ask the right questions, they study your texture, your face shape, your routine, and then they translate all of that into something that feels like the best version of you. There's a level of care and intention that's rare, the kind where you can tell they genuinely want you to walk out feeling confident, not just styled. The wash station alone is worth mentioning: warm water, slow scalp massage, and that quiet moment where the world drops away. Products smell clean and fresh without being overpowering, and everything feels chosen with purpose. The service is unhurried in the best way: attentive without hovering, friendly without being forced. You feel taken care of, not processed. When you leave, your hair doesn't just look good; it moves right. It feels healthy, balanced, and effortless, like it finally remembered what it was supposed to do.

so sad, I was so excited to find this Aveda salon haven't went to Aveda in quite a few years…read more Don't have a lot of money since I'm disabled, but I treated myself over $200 to get my hair touched up with product that wouldn't fry my hair. Had the worst hairdresser I've ever had and I'm 65 years old his name is Zeke. I paid for nothing and I made an appointment to have which I was worried about I knew he would probably be weird about it and he was. I had a lot of orange bleed out on the top of my head and he said it's because I wanted chunks. Acted like I was stupid.. So he proceeded to fix it with dark color now it looks like I didn't even get my hair done. I paid $210 for this.. I also my disappointment after the and they didn't even offer anything I wouldn't go back to but they didn't offer some money off some so ladies beware if you have a lot of money to spend on not getting anything done correctly to your hair go for it otherwise run the other way from blessing salon in Fairhaven
