For the hundreds of dollars I spent a on a color, highlight and cut, I expected really good service. I had color all over my forehead and both cheeks. When I asked about the large circle on my forehead, I was handed a color off wipe so I could wipe the color off myself. Although the mark was more of a slight chemical burn. The stylist had completely forgot I booked a haircut until halfway through foils , so she did a quick dry cut after drying my hair before styling. I was there for about 5 hours and I left with a light shade of blonde in the back of my hair and a darker Caramel color in the front . When I got home I noticed I had some bleach bleeds in the back (she did not show me the back once) I showed photo and said I like ashy blonde and they toned me with 8G an 9NW - which means my hair was very gold/Carmel aka a tad orange. I don't mean to drag anyone in this review, but I want to be honest. There is nothing worse than spending a ton of money then go home and fix your hair, luckily in another life I worked as a hairdresser and am able to fix my hair , but not everyone can.

She put a dirty towel that was on the dirty floor on my back and neck. I felt so grossed out. I was so shocked when this happened because I never thought it would be this dirty in a salon in Bellevue area. I thought I picked a good, reputable salon for hair color. She showed many unprofessional behaviors. The hair color result was not what I expected and I have been getting hair color at different salons for 20 years. (I changed hair stylist whenever I moved to near area in WA state. I often try to find a new hair stylist close to home or my work place.) I am not new to this process (hair coloring) at all. Normally I go to Aveda salon in other area and they were able to dye my hair from original black hair with grey hairs to lighter color in one visit without highlights. I told Mindy that I wanted the root to match the color that I had before. She said that she could do that but the color came out very dark, almost black. I could dye the hair myself dark color easily at home. The price for this was 200 dollars. -- Mindy argued that she had to dye my hair dark color to cover grey hair. My regular hair dresser at Aveda was able to turn my hair into beautiful lighter color and cover grey hair beautifully. -- I will have to go to my regular Aveda salon soon to get highlights to correct the color. -- Mindy was very talkative. She got frustrated at me because she said I moved my head a lot so I was trying to relax and not talk a lot to avoid moving my head. I didn't want to upset her. She showed that she was frustrated. However, Mindy kept asking questions unrelated to hair such as "Do you have a boyfriend?" and etc while she was washing my hair. She accidentally spit on my face a few times. She expected me to keep answering her questions even during the time she was washing my hair after she was frustrated that I moved my head, the experience was so uncomfortable for me. When I relaxed and didn't respond to answer her questions quickly, she said loudly so other customers and staff can heat that I must be frustrated with her. It was the weirdest experience I ever had at a hair salon. In 20 years that I have been getting hair color at salon, this is the first time, a hair stylist doesn't let me relax. I overheard she asked a male customer next to me about his romantic relationship and she told him to propose even when he said he wasn't ready. I don't know-- I just felt so uncomfortable with all these unprofessional behaviors. -- Her dog was very cute in the salon but that was about it. I will NEVER go back. Mindy kept blaming me for weird things. For example, after the coloring process was done, I asked her for a solution to help remove the color on my skin, it was not a big deal for me. I saw she used that solution to help remove color on my face but missed some spots. I know the color will come off when I take a shower. But Mindy started blaming me and told me that hair color on my skin was one of the marks I had on my face before hair coloring process. I don't have any abnormal mark on my face prior to this. Mindy also blamed that the towel she put on my back and neck fell off because I moved. (The towel was very dirty from the beginning. I am not even sure if it had been used with others before me.) I had to use a restroom to urinate since she left the hair color on me longer that it was supposed to be because she accepted other male customers who walked in for hair cut and perm. -- Mindy then deflected and started blaming me for scheduling an appointment with her, she said that she was kind enough to let me schedule an appointment on the same day. Then she had to take other walk-in customers and kept the color chemical compound on my hair longer than it was supposed to be?! It doesn't make sense at all. She was blaming me for supporting her small business. This is why this will be the one and only time I will do business with this salon. When I called her, it seemed like she didn't have any customer so she asked me to come in right away on Tues around noon. Then when other customers showed up, she was trying to get as many customers as possible and left the hair color on me longer than normal. Then she deflected and said she had been doing this for a long time. She knew hair. She said if I experienced hair loss, she would pay 500 dollars. SAD-- I don't want 500 dollars. I just wanted to have my hair color in a normal peaceful way. If you care about cleanliness and want a professional setting in hair salon, this might not be a place that you enjoy. I have been going to salons since I was in my early 20's because I have grey hair since I was young. Now I am almost 40. I never had issue with moving and causing a towel to fall from my neck. It was so weird that the hair stylist blamed customer for a dirty towel.

I have been getting my hair cut at Hair Excel for about 5 years. My nephew has been going here for about 20 years, so I decided to give it a try in 2023, since I live only two blocks away in downtown Mercer Island. I usually make an online appointment with the "next available" barber in the shop, because they are all very good, but today I had returned late in the day after running errands and decided to stop in for a quick haircut on my way home. I put my name on the sign-in roster, and sat down to wait. And wait. And wait. After waiting 30 minutes, watching a dozen men walk in after me and get promptly served by the 3 barbers working, I decided to leave. As a courtesy, I went to the desk to scratch my name off the sign-in roster. I found that my "completed" page of the roster had been tossed aside by Ly to the left of the register, with my name still open at the bottom of the sheet. He replaced my roster with the new "active" sign-in sheet which already had 4 names of men waiting, who were now ahead of me. Ly never called my name as he tossed my roster aside. He didn't recognize my name as a 5-year regular customer, so he didn't care who the last name on the list was. This demonstrates how little the owner of Hair Excel cares about his recurring source of income. I will never return to this shop due to Ly's condescending treatment.

This place has the best balance between quality, time, and price. Despite the generic sounding name (the only downside to be honest), this place is NOT a chain, and it is owned and operated by Sandy. It is recommended to call ahead, but there is usually not a wait. But keep in mind only 1 customer can be served at a time. The haircut is fantastic quality. Asian hair can be tricky for folks who aren't used to cutting it, but Sandy is super experienced and it definitely shows. I've had other good haircuts that have taken 45+ minutes, but Sandy can always do mine in half an hour flat. On the other hand if I go to a cheap chain, I can also get my hair done in that amount of time, but it would look bad. I would have to hide inside my house (I guess not an issue during the pandemic) for at least 3 days for it to grow out enough so that I don't look embarrassing. The price is a little bit higher than the generic haircut chains, but SO worth it. And it's still way cheaper than going to a fancy salon. Definitely recommend trying this place out.

This is worth raising a red flag at least for the next unsuspecting Jane Doe. Particularly when you bring in an old photo **of yourself** with a haircut you liked well, but she insists would not work on your hair (?!) Not taking any time to consider how my hair fell and felt *when dry,* rather shooing me off to the hair-wash basin should have been the first red flag I wished I had heeded. Rushing a customer through is also noted by other reviewers here. Jayme should have taken the time to consider hair texture while dry, listen to concerns, offer a hair cut strategy and get concurrence from the customer. But, nope. While at the wash basin I tried to describe my unequal hair volume on both sides of the head (thanks to fall out). She may have been listening with half an ear. Very nonchalant, and seemed uninterested. Oops did I mention I did not pull up in a Porsche, Mercedes or BMW. Once in the chair she trimmed my underlayers to meet the crown layers so that the previous choppy mismatch was corrected...and yet I noted she didn't blend the ends in order for it to sit with a neat profile, it sat with a blunt edge. I know my hair curls when dry so it needs a shaping for the edge profile-- otherwise it is very severe. I showed her a photo of me, in a past haircut that I liked. I wanted the front to be shaped so it wasn't a severe straight curtain of the same length as the rest of my profile. She resisted cutting my front portion to shape a gentle frame around my face. It was impossible, she asserted, because my hair would spring up too high. How would she know? She barely look at it or touched it when dry!! The worst of it is that I spent well over $100 for a haircut that does not look symmetrical on either side of my face because...she didn't hear me about my thinner left side of the head. So the "fuller" right side is technically the same length as the left side, however, because more hair, it looks longer. Heed your gut and just avoid a hairstylist who doesn't seem really into you as customer.

Then Charlie took 4 breaks to text very extended messages and took a call. I asked him how long the service would take, and he said 2.5 hours - he was done in under 2 hours. So I then had to sit and wait since my husband was picking me up. The color, toner, and hair wash were great, but the haircut was a little different. First he used a fine toothed comb and yanked my hair from root to end ripping out knots caused by his hair dryer technique. When I asked him to be more gentle and not rip my hair, he said it was due to hair damage and that I should use a mask (I've used a keratin treatment for softening hair 3x this week). He used a men's hair trimmer to cut my hair all the way around! Pretty different. I'm used to scissors. It does look pretty good, so I may try again. Just very different from what I'm used to.

I don't love my hair or my experience and felt like I didn't do myself a favor going groupon. I usually am pretty conservative with my hair. I do pretty subtle highlights and also hair coloring to just add dimension. i was more concerned with a hair cut this time because i wanted it shorter to start the new year and wanted to grow my bangs out. i'll do a recap of the situation: - I showed up a little early and she told me she was running late. that was 15 minutes late to be exact. - i felt uncomfortable filling out the inital form because it asks alot of info about you i.e where you work and where you live. -when i first met her i disclosed to her how i usually liked my hair and asked for her opinion on what kind of hair cut i should get. she told me she doesnt do that and that i should look online for some haircuts i want first and she'll cut it for me. she concentrated more on the highlights than i did and when she showed me a highlight color i was kind of ok with it. -actual highlighting- she was really agressive on applying my foils. she'd push my head down and slather the mix on my foil. there was a point where the foil almost cut my eye but she didn't notice. when she got near the top of my head I asked her if i left my hair down if the roots would show. she said it would i told her i didn't want that. and she said "well if you didnt want that why did you want highlihgts. do you know what highlights is" she could have easily just stopped. but she told me that she could correct it by addign ANOTHER color for and ADDITIONAL $30. i was already irritated by this and said sure whatever then she says to me "Why id your face so serious you look better if you smile" well it was serious because of you. It all went downhill after that. she went into the more "careful": mode and tried to talk to me to lighten the mood up but i was already too upset. she got too probing and made really cheeky comments that put me off more. including stating that i'm really spoiled becuase i was the youngest in my family and that i must be super super smart. she also kept on reitterating how lucky i was to get an appt with her becuase shes so busy. she missed 30 calls and her phone was blowing up with texts for appts but she was ignoring them to spend time with me... but i was on her appt so wouldnt it make sense to get her undivided attention? i didn't get it. then she kept on sayign its the holidays and she didnt want to stress me out. she ended up butchering my bangs. my hair is ok length. i have to curl it every day if i want to put it down. since i've had my hair cut my hair has been up 90% of the time to let it grow out more. my friends were surprised i tipped her. i'm slightly surprised given how unhappy i was. i wasted 3 hours nearly to have shorter hair, messed up bangs, and hair that was slightly copper brown compared to what it was before. i will have to dye it again once it grows out so that the roots dont show terribly. it wasn't an amazing trip by any means. i'll go back to my place in seattle and never cheat on my hairdresser again.

One of his best qualities is that he is straight up honest & unfiltered. He will tell you if something isn't going to look good on your face shape or why something might not work for you and try and work around it so that will look best for your face, rather than just cut your hair and have you hate it.

I mentioned that I visited over an year ago, he said then you cannot use Groupon and you will have to pay full price. I said but Groupon's fine print says that it is not valid for active clients in last 12 months and I had visited over an year ago. Ken was very rude and said that you will have pay full price if you make an appointment for haircut. I asked why don't you adhere to terms mentioned on Groupon, he arrogantly said that "Why do you INDIANS can't pay full price if you like my services and use third party to get better deal ? You can go ahead and cancel Groupon if you would like." Either stick to terms mentioned on Groupon or make an effort to change fine print on Groupon. For first time during my stay in US, I m hearing someone speak so arrogantly and make racist lewd comments. I finally ended up calling Groupon to cancel my order. Worst experience and I think this folks should learn some basics about how to treat and maintain customers in service oriented industry.
