The best haircut I've had in years! I had been a Gene Juarez girl for the past 10 years, having three different stylists, and have never had a cut this amazing. Laura made time for me quickly. Her consultation was thorough. My layers are lovely and the ends clean with movement. My boyfriend event commented, several times, how great my hair looks. I feel fresh and pretty, thanks to Laura, and I'm no longer fighting with my hair. She's stuck with me now, for good! 10 of 10!! Highly recommend! With Covid in mind, process was easy and safe and there was plenty of parking as well. Thrilled :) read more

I lost 145 lbs, and to celebrate, I wanted to go blonde. Instead, I walked out of the salon looking like a joke, $245.66 poorer. Words can't fully describe the despair I felt leaving that salon. They didn't listen to my requests--instead, they told me what I should want. When I said no and explained what I actually wanted, the stylist, Gary, eventually agreed but proceeded to do what *he* wanted anyway. Here's what happened: 1. Neglect: I was left alone with bleach in my hair for 1.5 hours, and Gary didn't check the foils even once during that time. 2. Unapproved haircut: I asked for a 2-inch trim, but he cut off 6 inches without asking. I was trying to grow my hair out, and now it's all gone. 3. Uneven haircut:The cut is uneven all around. 4. Uneven color: My hair has blotches of platinum, yellow, and my natural color where he didn't bleach at all. 5. Ignored requests: He ignored everything I asked for. He was juggling three clients at once, leaving each of us alone for 30+ minutes. Everyone left with yellow or uneven hair but was forced to pay full price. 6. Stylist consultations:I consulted with three different salons after my visit to Mirage. Every stylist was baffled by Gary's work. They explained that any professional should be able to lift virgin hair evenly, but he didn't. 7. Forced payment & pressure:I was forced to pay $245.66 for a disaster. Gary was incredibly mean and pressured me to say I liked it. 8. Unkind treatment: I begged not to have to pay. I've never encountered such unprofessional and unkind behavior in a salon. The relationship between a stylist and client is sacred. We trust you to with our hair and believe you want the best for us. He didn't care at all. I was so saddened by his behavior and my hair. I cried all night after leaving. ): 9. Owner's response:When I reached out to the owner, she dismissed me, essentially saying, "tough luck." I ended up spending $500 at another salon to fix the damage. I can't even bring myself to share photos--it's too humiliating. I look like a Polly Pocket doll from the '90s. ): All I wanted was a refund, but they denied me multiple times. Please, don't go there. They violated my trust, and they'll probably violate yours too. read more

I just met Lety and she gave me the best cut! She is super nice and is a great listener! OMG I am so happy and glad I now have a new salon after my old one closed. I have been drifting from one place to another not quite happy. I have found my home! Thank you Lety for being so nice! read more

I have been coming here for about 7 years. I was lucky enough to find Lety who is my one and only hair stylist. Not only is she an amazing person, but she is knowledgeable and a talented hair stylist. She has never disappointed me yet. Im not very adventurous, I always get the same look and she nails it every time. The salon itself is nice, always clean and has a good vibe. It's not fancy but well maintained. read more

Samantha Rux was my stylist and I was extremely pleased with the color! My hair can easily get ashy, but she knew the right color mix and got it spot on. This salon is easy to find and has parking available too, easy access. read more

Absolutely fantastic! Lety does such an amazing job with her color artistry and creates the perfect environment for a day of hair care. She is knowledgeable and expertly helped me choose between services, even to the extent of getting a better deal by skipping a base color I did not need! This color is gorgeous. read more

Laura really goes above and beyond on service. I came in for a haircut, and she offered that if I wanted any adjustment to the cut, I could let her know and she would find a time to accommodate me. I did end up wanting a minor change, and she found time for me to come back in on the very same day. I've never had any stylist offer that before. She had also noticed I had some mineral buildup in my ends and gave me a product free of charge to use for that. (And it seems to be working!) read more

Laura is the best. I've been going to her for over a year now and I always leave happy. She has a tremendous amount of experience and completely trust her with my hair. They have taken extensive measures in these extraordinary times, including waiting in your car, plastic separators, and checking temperature at the door. read more

I am really happy and relieved that I found the perfect stylist for me .. I went for a haircut , hair color and I really liked the entire experience. Raemyn took good care of my hair , he understood what I want and gave me the perfect haircut . Overall the booking process was so smooth and they squeezed me in even though they were booked completely. Will definitely come back soon . read more

Laura has been taking care of my thinning hair for many years. She always does a great job. Her salon now has 8 or 9 private rooms for safety. I always feel safe and well served. Give her a try. Larry read more

As always, Laura does a great job. In addition many safety improvements, including some private rooms

Laura Rux, owner of Mirage Hair Design has done a great job remodeling the salon during the past year. With the State mandates imposed on her industry during the pandemic, she has separate rooms for each of her stylist, implemented safety measures to keep everyone safe and followed all protocols. I had my hair done last year a few times and again just recently with Laura. She is great at what she does and fun to talk to. I recommend her to get your hair styled. read more

just had my first haircut and style by Ramyn. Superb work, professional, listens to his customer need , and took his time, no rushing, love it, will comeback again. read more

We love Laura Rux! Not only did she give my daughter a great cut, she got her talking! lol I had asked over and over *if* she wanted a hair cut, and if so what she wanted. Nothing. She sits in Laura's chair and pulls a pic from the internet. Chats about all sorts of things. Laura treated my new teen as an adult and I was just there to pay and drive. :-) I love Laura! read more

Laura gave me the best haircut and color I have had since moving to Seattle 7 years ago! Once I was able to let go of my stylist in Colorado I started looking around Seattle and Bellevue for a good stylist that could cut naturally curly hair. I needed a cut and color that would work for me wearing my hair either curly or straight. Most of the time the stylists I have seen (at the expensive saloons) would get the layering wrong and when I styled it at home I could see and feel where the messed up. Laura nailed it the first time and the color and I could be happier!! She is the best find since we moved here! I highly recommend seeing Laura Rux at Mirage Hair Design in Redmond. read more

Wrote my 1st review for Laura 3 years ago and I am still a fan. She knows her color and how to deal with curly hair, and I just keep coming back. She asks the right questions to make sure you're getting what you want before she cuts! Highly recommend read more

Horrible service, horrible stylists, and yet somehow all of the negative reviews get deleted??? Hmmmm?!?!? My sister had a terrible experience here and they literally ruined her hair and a long review was written about her experience and now it's gone. Go to Attractions down the road! Tony & Jazz will take care of you in a professional and entertaining environment!!! read more

We'll I decided to go here because of the high reviews but, I will definitely not be going back! First off, there is no receptionist. I arrived 10 minutes early and was never greeted or acknowledged. I walked back and forth to make sure someone knew I was there. I then went to the restroom and saw Dori, the lady that was supposed to do my hair, sitting at her chair chatting away. Finally, 20 minutes after I arrived, she acknowledges me and says, "are you here for me?" That set the tone for the appt. When a woman asks for a certain color or cut, NEVER say, no let's do it this way because it's more age appropriate!!! I was so insulted that straight bangs were that big of a deal for a 42 yr old woman. She styled my hair as if I were in my 50s. Not that there is anything wrong with that age but I'm not 50. Poor customer service and poor client rapport and I will not be returning! read more

I moved to the area not too long ago and finding a good stylist was one of the relocating tasks that I was dreading the most! Because I was familiar with Aveda Salons, I attempted using one of their locations first and was sadly dissapointed. Laura Rux at Mirage was recommended to me via a couple people actually, so I let her know that I needed an appointment, she PROMPTLY set me up, got me in, and got the job done! She did a wonderful job!! She's entertaining and personable too and a FABULOUS contact. She's been in the area all of her life, so she gave me a ton of great information to boot! It's official, I'm a Mirage Hair Design client for life! read more

When I lived on the eastside this was my favorite. Set in a converted, cozy, little, yellow house in downtown Redmond, Mirage is a warm, casual setting. Absolutely no bad, high- fashion-I'm-an-artissst stylists here. If you show up straight from the gym you won't be made to feel like an outcast. No blaring music, harsh lights, and snootiness. Just genuinely friendly staff who are on top of their game and enjoy their work. Prices vary by stylist, so ask when making a reservation. Very good prices on products and styling gear in the front. Parking is shared with the auto-supply place beside it, which at sometimes of the day can be tricky; but free street parking is always an option. Only reason it is 4 and not 5 stars is the lack of front desk staff at times. read more

I've been going here for almost 3 years and I can't believe I haven't Yelped about it yet. I have to give the place a 4 star because I'm a fan of my hair stylist, not necessarily the actual place. It's a small, comfortably converted house next to the Napa Auto (you have to share parking with them or park on the street but I've never had problems). Kaysi is the only stylist I've had where I feel comfortable about going out and about after my cut. Normally, I would race home, rinse my hair and restyle because the cutter would enforce some kind of artiste viewpoint that made me look dorky. Kaysi always does a great job, is a nice, quiet spoken woman who really cares about her clients and most importantly here....makes me feel comfortable about chatting. Note: I normally do not chat in salons. I go there to get my hair cut, not interested in discussing the latest Cosmo gossip, let alone talking about other personal things in my life. Get in, get out, get on with my day, is usually my motto. However, Kaysi is a very genuine person. If a first timer, she asks what YOU want, what YOU feel comfortable with and if YOU have any specific hair issues she should be aware of. How about that? Someone who realizes it's YOUR hair, not their personal palette. But that's not to say she doesn't have a clue where innovation is concerned. She'll take the time to discuss new styles and gets as much enjoyment out of making you look good with a new style as you do. Some of her clients have been coming to her for years, that's how devoted they are to her. And I'll definitely follow her around if she ever leaves to go to another place. read more

I want to say how great an experience I had with Robin at Mirage Hair Design in Redmond, Washington. She knows exactly what I want and she is most accommodating for busy schedules. If you don't want to put a bad feather in your nest, you better see Robin at Mirage Hair Design. read more

I had a lovely experience. Lety is friendly and did a wonderful job with my hair. I will be visiting again.

I had Tamara today to fix a horrible Groupon "do" (Groupon was very good about the refund.) She asked questions about what I wanted, looked at skin tone, asked about makeup, and all around did a fantastic job in the pre-design phase. We talked about hair products and styling tools. Basically she kicked the butt of pretty much everyone I've ever had work on my hair. She spent a great deal of time getting everything to my liking (especially after my hair trauma just a couple weeks ago - elsewhere). And we worked out a long term plan I can live with and truly look forward to. She is a genuinely nice, helpful, and big hearted person. You would be lucky, and I think very happy to have your hair in her hands. read more

The Mirage... Aka The Miracle. Let's start with the one thing I did not like, just to get it out of the way. When I walked in there was a sign that said: If no one ask at the front desk, please walk to your stylist. Soooo... Yeah that's odd. What if I don't know my stylist or if my stylist is still with a client? Anyways, I got my hair done by Danette. This was the first time in 8 years that my appointment was under two hours. Danette managed to do a full highlight, deep conditioning, cut, and blow dry in an hour and fifteen minutes. Thus: The Miracle. Everyone at the salon was friendly and upbeat. I typically leave hair appointments ready to pull my hair out because I've been stuck in a chair staring at my unflattering self for 3.5 hours. Fortunately I felt the complete opposite after this experience. read more

Laura is AMAZING! Looking for a hair stylist for a while now and finally found someone with great experience and understanding of different hair styles. Thanks Laura! read more

I've been going to Mirage for almost 6 months now, and it's been a great experience! Actually, Mirage Hair Design gave me the best barber/salon experience I've ever had. Laura Rux is wonderful. She delivers exactly what you want in a haircut, and will also give her professional advice to your haircut needs as well. I will continue to use Laura's services for the foreseeable future! I always walk out with a few new pieces of wisdom from Laura in a addition to a great haircut. If you are looking for a stylist, check her out! Strongly recommend. The salon itself is easy to get to and is very clean and professional throughout. read more

Ok. It's been 5 years since I last gave Laura a review and it's time! She truly deserves the acknowledgment. I have long hair, which requires TLC to maintain a healthy look and feel. Laura is my go-to-gal who knows when to highlight, when to trim, how to highlight so that I dont have to worry about it. I have quite a hectic schedule, however, Laura's techniques make it easy to reduce my time and visits into her salon. My overall hair maintenance is fast, easy, and she keeps my hair healthy & shiny. Not to boast, but it's nice to receive compliments about my hair all of the time!! She does all of this while fitting my often spur-of-the-moment hair needs into my hectic schedule, and truly caring about me as her client! I love and appreciate having Laura in my life! read more

Yes, they also do manly cuts. Thanks to Carol Jacobson for making me look sexy. Can't go wrong at Mirage. read more

I was in desperate need of a haircut after moving to the area and putting off the whole "new hairstylist" search a bit too long. After seeing good reviews for this salon, I decided to bite the bullet and make an appointment. While I appreciate the fact that Diane was able to accommodate me that day, I walked away with a so-so experience and a less than satisfactory haircut. Diane had a family friend there that was having some fun coloring done, and she spent much of the time talking about that, checking on her every so often, etc. She was still very personable, and I was fine with it at the time, but the haircut I ended up with makes me wonder if maybe she was distracted (especially since the salon generally has such good reviews.) I showed her pictures on my phone of a haircut I wanted. The pictures showed the model from multiple angles, and I even pointed out what I liked about the shape. Diane assured me that she knew what I wanted. In the end, the haircut I got was not very much like the picture, (it's shorter in the problem areas, not longer, so I can't even get it fixed) but even worse, it's not a very good cut and I now have ridges going around the back of my head from the unevenness of the cut. Perhaps my thick hair is partially to blame, but I've definitely experienced better. Regardless, I paid too much for an unsatisfactory haircut. read more

I have never, in my life, loved my hair cut so much. I have thick wavy hair and its very difficult to work with and get something without chopping off the length. I went to see Tamara and she is absolutely amazing; she spent good amount of time and asked me what I wanted to do and made me feel extremely comfortable. There was no upselling or pushing when I asked her about hair color and straightening treatment. I found my new hair stylist and I'm absolutely going back. Haven't felt like this about my hair in such a long time. read more

I'm extremely pleased with my haircut and color at Mirage Salon! Lety completely understood how I wanted the hair cut, and my hair is much softer after the perfect color. It's really cute inside and they have gone through a lot of work to make it safe at this time. This is my new salon. read more

I have been going to Laura for about 4-5 years now. She ROCKS! She nails your color the first time. She totally understands what you are asking for even when you can't come up with the words to describe it. Sometimes, I think she can actually read your mind! I have sent many friends to her and they have all been very pleased. I can't say enough wonderful things about her and her salon. It's a clean, cozy place. She's always on time. My teenage kids really like her too... and that's saying a lot! I highly, highly recommend Laura!!! read more

Love this place! I live so much farther north from Redmond yet this is the place I go to get my hair cut. I see Laura Rux personally and she does a terrific job on my hair and that's coming from someone who's super picky about how his hair is cut! She knew exactly what I wanted and was able to get the job done quick. If you're looking for a bright spirited person who's easy to talk to while getting exactly what you want in a haircut, then Laura Rux is your gal! Thanks Mirage Hair Design for being awesome! read more

Krystal is amazing! She does excellent work at a very affordable price and is a pleasure to chat with as well. I have curly, unruly hair and it is always tough finding a stylist who both knows what they are doing and will listen to what I want. I highly recommend this place! read more

Laura is the best stylist I have run across in a long time. So much fun to chat with and so welcoming. It is so great to have a friendly place to get a trim and a beard adjustment. read more

I was really impressed on the precautions Mirage Hair Salon took to make sure everyone is safe and can maintain social distancing. They have you contact your stylist to let them know you arrive and then they take your temperature. There are barriers between the sinks and all of their stations. All the stations are nicely spaced out. Then of course I loved my haircut! Laura knew exactly what I was trying to describe to her. She asked lots of questions to make sure we were all on the same page. read more

Laura Rux is the owner of the salon is wonderful, and she has many years of experience. What I really appreciate about Laura is that she really listens to what her clients wants and needs are, and helps them interpret what they are really looking for when they may not necessarily know how to best articulate it. Laura is great with all hair types, especially curly or long hair. I take my daughter, who has extremely long hair to see Laura. Laura does a fantastic job of giving her a great cut while keeping the length, so my daughter is never disappointed leaving the chair and has never felt like too much has been taken off. read more

I was looking forward to visiting this salon after reading all the positive reviews. However, apparently they are not accepting new clients or something. I left two messages on the voicemail during listed business hours to schedule an appointment. No call back. No response whatsoever. No other way listed to contact the company. I am disappointed to not be able to support a local salon with independent stylists. read more
