Love this sultry little boudoir style salon. It's in a beautiful neighborhood with some of the best views of Seattle. Cute little coffee stand out front. But, I'm most impressed with Madison's instincts with color and talent with cutting. She's yielded consistent results of a far more seasoned Stylist. I have thick, crazy hair and she cuts it exactly the way I want it with out thinning or texturizing it (which you don't do to my hair type-makes it more frizzy ; (...And she's so fun to visit with ; ) I'm happy to drive over to W. Seattle to see her and have my hair look fabulous for weeks after! It's worth it to not have to pay for parking too! Check it out!..... Btw: there's a great deal on a Keratin Straightening Treatment-Be sure to ask her about it!! read more

In July I started coming here because I saw their website about having a blonde expert on staff. I had brown/black hair and was set on being almost platinum in short time span. Jennifer was awesome about keeping in contact with me via email and then booked my appointment with Lindsey. It took a few visits to be where I wanted and I'm super happy with Lindsey and all of her suggestions, stories and the entire experience is always a great time. I appreciate Lindsey's patience with me as I kept changing the type of blonde I want :) If you are transitioning to blonde: see Lindsey!!! read more

My first salon experience since moving to Seattle & it was great. Jennifer was very kind enough to squeeze me in at such a late time and even took the time and effort to do my hair AND teach me how to style it. I also appreciated the tips on caring for my hair in a better and healthier way. I finally get to rock a cute, wavy, long bob that I've been wanting for a really long time and it's all thanks to Jennifer. Thanks Pinup Salon! read more

I'm new to town and needed a new stylist. I desperately needed a haircut to fix up some split ends and reshaping of my haircut. I had a special event this Friday and Jen, squeezed me in for a cut, style and make up. . Communication was easy, as I emailed her pictures of my expectations and ideas of hair and make up and what my hair currently looked like. When I showed up she was ready to go with great ideas. Secondly, the whole salon has an amazing vibe. The other stylists were funny and down to earth. The a smaller salon and you feel like all focus is on you. I am incredibly allergic to certain types of make up and shampoos (contact dermatitis and rosacea), and had zero reaction. My style came out perfect. My husband gave me a million compliments. I get my hair and make up done for events or special occasions but this was the first time he genuinely liked it. He said it looked like me, just spruced up a bit. All her products were vegan and not tested on animals. It's always scary to meet a new stylist, but Jen made it easy. Love it. read more

I've been to the West Seattle Pinup twice now. Once for a cut and color and again for another cut. Madison did a great job both times. She's a good listener, and really paid attention to what I was looking for, but she wasn't shy about offering her professional expertise. The cuts have worked really well with my straight, fine hair that's thinning--not easy to make it look good, but Madison did it. The salon has only one chair, so I was definitely the center of attention. I'll happily go back regularly read more

I searched high and low to find a salon that would do wedding hair and make-up for 2 brides in an environment that would ease our nerves. Planning a same-sex wedding from out of state, sight unseen, is a bit of a challenge. When I came across Pinup, I knew immediately that this was our kind of salon. We reached out to Jen by email and she set us up with appointments with Lindsey. It's a big ask to have someone do your wedding hair without any real prior conversations about hairstyles or without having the ability to see the kind of hair that Lindsey was going to work with. Apparently she was up for the challenge and did not disappoint. It's safe to say that we are two of the most neurotic, anxious, uptight, potty mouth brides who were definitely feeling the nerves of our big day. Lindsey handled us both fantastically and met all of our needs - both the complicated up dos and natural make up. In addition, about a week before the wedding day, I reached out to Jen once more, because my soon-to-be mother-in-law asked me to find out if they could fit her in for an up do as well. I figured this would be impossible on short notice. However, Jen immediately got back to me and said that if it wasn't possible at Pinup, that she would help us find someone to do it. In the end, she had Shayla come in special to take care of my mother-in-law. For two real plain-jane's that don't do hair or make up, while being totally opinionated about what we should look like on our wedding day, we both walked away thrilled and impressed. Worth every penny! Thanks to Jen, who agreed to schedule us, even though we couldn't do the usual trial runs and things beforehand and for scheduling Shayla to take care of my mother-in-law, Karen. Thanks to Shayla for taking care of Karen. And a special thanks to Lindsey, who in a pinch pulled together two complicated hairstyles and some make-up on a time-short appointment and humored our neuroses. You all are great! read more

WOW!!! I mean...wow. Alise made my hair look the best it's ever looked. I am very picky with my coloring and she listened to what I wanted and was so knowledgeable about the product and what to do to accomplish the results I wanted. I did a cut and partial foil with highlights/lowlights. I also recommend getting the Olaplex treatment! The treatment made my formerly dry hair feel so silky smooth afterwards. Everyone at the salon is lovely and they made me feel so pampered and beautiful. If you ever need a blowout or a cut/color while you're in Seattle, GO SEE ALISE! read more

I googled salons in West Seattle as I wanted a closer one to my home and there was availability with Brie. I read her reviews and booked her. She added highlights and a haircut. My hair came out fried on the ends, and orange on the top. She only put bleach on it and didn't offer to tone it. I left feeling pleased but once I got home realized that the color and condition of my hair wasn't what I wanted. I was surprised as a new costumer she didn't reach out to see if I was happy. I considered calling her and having it fixed but went back to my previous stylist who also was having issues with my color, but before I left the salon she already made another appointment to fix it as she wasn't happy. Not only that Brie made some insensitive remarks regarding our community that offended me. I understand there are different views but as a professional I think it's unacceptable. I will not go back to this salon as convenient as it is. read more

I made my first appointment with Ronda through Groupon and was very happy with the results. She seemed to understand my hair more than anyone else and also really seemed to listen to what I was looking for in a style. I have curls, but I also like to wear my hair straight and she gave me a great look that let's me wear my hair both ways (and even gave me lots of advice on how to deal with those curls!). The salon is small and intimate, which I personally like (I'm not down with most salons that are more like assembly lines). You really feel like you're the star of the show there. And the glass of red wine didn't hurt either! :-) I'm glad to have finally found a salon and a stylist that I'm excited to go back to! read more

Fantastic salon. Jennifer is a pro. She fixed my over-grown highlights and cut my hair perfectly. I love this place. *Please note, they do not take walk-ins, so call and plan ahead. It's totally worth it. read more

Jen's space is really fun and funky with a lot of character. It gives you a warm and fuzzy feeling. You will leave feeling gorgeous because both Jen and her employee are good at listening and accommodating what you are looking for in your do. It is obvious Jen has a passion for what she does and she is a true artist. Her salon is in Alki but easy to get to from downtown, Beacon Hill, West Seattle and Queen Anne. Free parking! read more

Jen has been cutting my hair for over a year now. In addition, she came out to my wedding venue and did my hair and my bridesmaid's hair. I love Jen! She listens really well to hear what you want. She gives great feedback in terms of what she thinks about your hair relative to the shape of your face, eye color, etc. But ultimately, she gives you what you want, not what she wants. What is really great is that she's not happy unless you're happy, so she works really hard to make sure she's giving you a style that you'll love. My wedding hair was awesome! Jen did a practice session with me where we were able to determine what would work and what would not work given my dress, jewelry and my super slippery hair. I LOVE what she came up with. She came out to our venue (1.5 hours out of Seattle) to give me a beautiful do for my big day. She also did an amazing job working with my wedding party. I had two girls with SUPER curly hair who were very nervous about having a stranger do their hair after having many bad stylist experiences in the past. They were both so excited about what Jen did for them. Neither of them had ever been so pleased with their "event hair". One of the girls even switched over to Jen for her regular haircuts. Jen ROCKS! Oh, and she offers drinks while you're getting your haircut - GENIUS! read more

Madison is AWESOME! After awhile of VERY bad dye jobs from "home jobs", my hair had slowly turned into a gross reddish/brown/black/gray color. I am very frugal which is why I try to do my own and just don't have money to get my color re-done every month or so for maintenance. Madison is awesome and works with you to give you what you want while understanding the need for a budget and helping to come up with a plan for you to stick to a budget and looking great at the same time. Madison ended up alternating beautiful caramel foil highlights with, mocha brown lowlights with an overall wash. Sounds yummy, right?? Well it is!! It looks so natural! The day after I got compliments left and right about my highlights, and over a month later I was still getting compliments!! The salon is incredibly cute, a cozy quaint location that makes you feel like you are in someone's home, and Madison is very friendly and easy to talk to. Bottom line: If you are looking for an AMAZING colorist/highlightist...go see Madison at Pin Up!!! read more

I just had my first cut with Jenn and I love it. I have short hair and I wanted the impossible: cut my hair, give it more style, but don't take off the length. Make it flirty and edgy and feminine. Somehow she made my hair, which was already pretty short, have style, length and flip. I swear she made it look both longer and shorter, at the same time. Simply the best haircut I've had in a long time. Maybe ever. Her salon is cute as a button, just one chair for haircuts, one chair for hair washing, and one chair in case someone is waiting. And Jenn wields the right amount of chit-chat as she wields her scissors. I'm a new fan and I'll be back! read more

Not only is Jen a blast to spend an hour with (or however long it takes to get your hair done), she knows hair. She's been cutting my hair for over a year now and she knows how to do exactly what I need. She's able to listen to my sometimes confusing haircut requests and skillfully translate them into precisely what I was looking for. That takes talent. Jen was even able to transform my husband's hair into a blue mohawk for a costume party and it looked fabulous. She can do conservative and funky. read more

Shayla is so knowledgeable, talented, and fun to spend time with. I wish I would've discovered this gem a lot earlier :-) It's a very small salon on Alki. You'd never know it's there if you weren't looking for it. Worth waiting for an appointment. Best hairstyling I've ever had! read more

I have been going to Shayla for my Keratin treatment for over a year now. She is awesome! She takes her time and knows a lot about all the products! Very good at what she does! Her cuts are amazing as well! read more

I've been having Jen cut my hair for about 6 months now and she's always done a great job, able to get me in and out quickly and offering great advice on what to do with my hair so that it stands up to being stuffed in to my motorcycle helmet and still looks presentable and so that I don't have to worry about it while getting myself and the kids out the door in the morning without the ubiquitous dad's clipper cut. She loves what she does and goes at it with a passion and determination for helping people look and feel better. read more

I found 'my salon'! i had never settled down with a salon or hair-doer in Seattle in 5 years, until i met Madison at Pin Up. A friend recommended her, and i was impressed to hear it's a ONE-CHAIR salon. No one comes in and stares at you mid-cut when you look like a wet dog, and it's just you and your stylist chatting. The place is tiny and cute, very comfy. i felt at ease. It's in a funky and unusual spot - i like that area, on your way out to Alki, right on the water. The other and biggest reason i went, was because she gave me her advice about a great style for me, and backed up what i wanted. No stylist had ever really done what i had in mind, maybe because i couldn't describe it properly, but i felt i could tell Madison what i wanted, and she knew just what i meant. We totally went for it and i got a great new style that left me feeling like a totally new lady. i needed something dramatic, and always felt shy about asking for it, but i totally got it here! i went from long plain hair to a great short style. So perfect for a new mama -a reinvention. Thanks! read more

First of all, thank you Shayla!!! My hair is looking fresh, vibrant and sexy after Shayla cut and colored my hair. My first visit to Pinup Salon and it won't be my last. The salon was inviting, intimate and relaxed. Not only did I leave with flawless hair, I also got to meet my girl Shayla! Thank you!!! read more

Pinup Salon - My hair is looking fresh, vibrant and sexy after Shayla cut and colored my hair. - Hair Salons Near Me - Seattle, Washington

If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I never know what I want when I go into a salon & many times I walk out with a crummy cut & not the color I was looking for (I know the problem is me being indecisive) I also have a wonderful husband who finds me attractive when I have a more natural look & I tend to go to the opposite extreme. With all this said.... this place Rocks! Shayla was patient, fun, & hit the nail on the head! I walked in with boring, limp, & lifeless hair. When I walked out I had a bounce in my step loving the style. I got home & was immediately welcomed with a "Honey I love your hair!" (This was sunday) I received a very similar statement the next day. This will be my go to place from here on out! I can't wait to come back again to see more progress. Shayla you are amazing!!!! read more

The service is not consistent. The last haircut was a disaster. The Brazilian blowout caused severe skin irritation while I was away on my holiday abroad. Communication when reaching out to remedy the situation was poor. read more

It's been two weeks since I got my hair cut and colored at Pin Up Salon. I wanted to wait before I wrote the review because I left the salon very upset and unhappy with my entire experience. I just washed and styled my hair today and decided that it was time to write my review, because I am still just as upset. First, I had emailed Jen directly to schedule an appointment with her. Which is apparently her preferred method of communication-- according to multiple Yelp reviews and comments she made on Yelp herself. She even provided her email on a comment thread. When I arrived at the salon, the stylist didn't introduce herself and it turns out I had an appointment with someone else and not Jen. At that moment I realized this, I should have walked out the the salon, but I was starting a new job the next day and wanted to treat myself to a haircut and color. The color is great. I love it. That is what the one star is for. The cut... not so much. I had long hair when I walked into the salon and now it is much, much shorter. My hair was in fact, badly damaged when I went in and I was advised that two inches would make it much healthier. I agreed. I really feel strongly that I lost more than two inches. Fortunately I went to a party the previous night where pictures were taken and was able to see where my hair was laying and compare it to where it lays now. My fiance and I literally took a tape measure and determined that it was a good three and a half inches if not 4 inches shorter. I decided that for the time being I would wear my hair mostly straight to make it look a little longer until it grows out. Unfortunately, I cannot do this as my hair is noticeably uneven. The right side is a half an inch shorter than the left side. So I went back to curling it. But I can no longer use my large barrel curling iron because my hair is much shorter, so I went out and purchased another curling iron. (Spent more money.) Also, I left the salon with disgusting hair. The gal ran out of time or knew she gave a bad cut. Either way, she did not completely dry my hair (which is an included service, I asked). So I had to go home and finish drying my own hair. I stood in the mirror crying as I did it. I was so upset. I spent upwards of $150 at this salon. I even bought a product that would help make my hair healthier AND tipped generously (what was I thinking!?). When I emailed Jen to find out why I had an appointment with someone else, she simply explained that they are getting soooooooo much business from Yelp/Groupon deals, that she simply made a mistake. I also voiced my displeasure with the service I received and only got an apology. Oh and she offered to cut my hair next time (no discount), which is tempting because I would love for her to see how uneven my hair is. But I decided to do this salon a favor and go somewhere else. I mean... they have so much business anyway, I doubt I would be missed. read more

This might be the greatest salon on the planet, but I wouldn't know because apparently they don't want my business. I contacted the owner via email inquiring about the cost of bridal hair/makeup. She did respond to me, and gave me a quote, and said I'd need to put half down as a deposit to book the appointment. No problem! About a week later I called the salon and told them I wanted to pay my deposit and book an appointment. The girl on the phone had no idea how to help me, wouldn't take my card number, didn't schedule an appointment, and suggested I again email the owner to arrange payment. I emailed her right away... And again about 2 weeks later... And have still not heard back over a month later. Maybe its just my opinion, but anyone answering phones for your business should either be able to 1) meet the needs of the customer on the phone, or at least be able to 2) put the customer in touch with someone who can help. Telling me to email a person who is never going to email me back is not helpful. I scheduled at Swink instead. read more

Shayla has given me hope for my future. I've lost my hair and therefore confidence for health reasons and thanks to her talent and coaching, my hair and confidence have grown exponentially. I've never had a stylist more helpful, talented, and kinder. Good vibes is an understatement and I look forward to any session. So thankful I found her and won't ever leave. read more

Jen does a great job making guys feel welcome in her salon. I've always been the type to get a quick haircut at Great Clips or some other chain and I never knew the difference until I started visiting Pinup Salon. From the moment you enter Jen's space, you instantly become relaxed and just enjoy the whole experience. I would highly recommend Jen and the gals at Pinup Salon! read more

First time visiting this salon and could not recommend the salon or Shayla enough. I have thick, wavy hair and a lot of it. It's always been difficult to find someone who can de-bulk the weight of my hair while still keeping volume in the right places. But Shayla gave me the best hair haircut I've ever had. My hair looks great, even when just air dried and w/o any styling. I am one happy customer and highly recommend this spot! read more

Well, I have been coming here for close to two years... and I am still just as happy as the day I started. I, rather religiously, get to see Jen to have her work on my hair. I enjoy so many things about my experience when i come in. Mostly, I enjoy coming out looking pretty much awesome. With very little help on my end and usually a mumble of what I liked or didn't like or what I want done, Jen has turned my wild hair into happy hair. And honestly, what more can you ask for? You can see hear skills shine through in her ability to bring a unique look to my happy head as well as the other people I see coming and going. Now,if you are looking to get a 7.99 cost cutter hair cut, this is not the place. But she is really well priced for the services she offers. She has been patient and kind in helping me get to a place where I am absolutely thrilled with the service I receive. I love the ability to schedule through email and appreciate that there is always a response. Great salon. So happy I ended up here. read more

Shayla is rad, go see her. I went to pinup to get a Deva Cut for my curly mop, and was surprised to be able to get a quick appointment. Shayla is beautiful inside and out, and she gave me full attention during the cut, educating me along the way and showing me how to get my curls to really pop. The cut was gorgeous, and I recently went back to have it shaped up. Second time around, I was heading to the gym then home to color so we skipped the styling, but again the cut was perfect and my curls were popping with the products she sent me out the door with. Bonus, she's not pushy with products or judgy about my DIY color. She's fun to chat with and clearly knows her stuff! read more

I just went to Pin Up Salon (West Seattle) last Sunday. I absolutely love it! Such a cute space in a nondescript building. The best part is that I seriously got the best haircut ever! This is the haircut that I've tried to get many many times before, yet it has never quite turned out like this one. Its so easy and stylish all at once, something I had given up hope on ever finding. I feel horrible because I can't remember the stylists name, but she's new to Seattle and boy are we lucky to have wooed her west!!! I will definitely be back! I had a little snafu with the eyebrow wax that has never happened to me before but no worries because they made it right in the end. And a bonus? They are open on Sundays!!!!!! So lucky to have found my new salon! read more

I first went to PInup Salon because of a Groupon deal, but the great haircuts and color have kept me coming back! Ronda not only does a great job with my hair, but she's fun to chat with at well. The shop is cute, easy to find and has a coffee stand right out front. I have nothing but good things to say. read more

I was really excited to try this place out, but was disappointed. The haircut was okay, but I didn't feel like my hairdresser really listened to what I wanted. I have curly hair and the cut she gave me only worked when it was straight. For the price, totally not worth it. read more

I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of service Ronda and Jen provided me at Pinup. I went in about 2 weeks ago to cash in my Groupon and Ronda did my cut and color. It was incredibly easy to talk to her throughout the appointment-- She was fun, great sense of humor, big laugh--really genuine. My idea going in was to just let Ronda do her thing--hand over creative control in the style department. But in this case, while I did make some specifications, I don't think I realized that I actually knew exactly what I wanted. The result was a good hair cut that just didn't quite suit me. I didn't say anything though, I wanted to style it myself, live with it a few days and see how I felt. The color is AMAZING, matches my eyebrows perfectly...I think I've found my winter brown. :D Jen sent me a follow up email to see how my appointment had gone--which I really really appreciate with any service oriented business. I told her Ronda was great, the color was great but I didn't absolutely love the cut. When Ronda called the next day wanting to fix it I was in the midst a major event and was unable to get back to her. Jen emailed me again to ensure I got in to get the cut I wanted and went ahead and scheduled an appointment for me. Round 2 with Ronda was awesome once again. We played around with the cut a little bit. She really listened to the issues I was having with it and added some layers, shortened it up and simplified my bangs. She was totally cool about fixing it and once again a pleasure to spend an hour with. I could also tell once we changed the style that she really understood why the other cut just wasn't quite right. I maintain that it was a really good haircut the first time, but I'm lazy with my hair and the style took a bit more love that I am willing to give. I am 100% satisfied and have been receiving grand praise on the re-do. I'll be back! read more

Can we talk about the hair goddess that is Shayla? Warm, engaged and a veritable font of knowledge regarding the latest and greatest techniques and processes. It's one of the first times a stylist spun me around in the chair and I audibly gasped with glee. My Keratin Smoothing Treatment looks and feels fabulous, and Shayla assured me that she will make sure it stays that way. Bravo! read more

This is a very unique salon. When you make an appointment, you and the stylist will be the only people there! You'll never feel rushed, and you have a say in the music choice, too. The stylist I went to was very knowledgeable. I had a MAJOR hair disaster at the beach (I let a little girl put lemon juice in my strawberry blonde hair, and my hair turned very orange... like Leeloo from Fifth Element hair), and I was going on vacation the next day. They were willing to fit me in for a 3 hour color correction that night. i left looking like a dark-haired vixen. I've returned 3 times, and would recommend to a friend! Oh, and they have a coffee stand right outside the building, *bonus. read more

Have been going to see Jen for a few months now. Love the cut, color and conversation. Cute shop - only one chair so you get undivided attention. read more

This place was great! A different barber, slaughtered my hair and the ladies here got me in fast and did what they could to shield my shame without having to shave my head. Thanks Ladies! read more

After years of living in fear, I am finally proud of the fact that sometimes, I like to wear some make up and be a bit glamorous. But where oh where to begin? It's overwhelming to walk into a store like Ulta with 10,000 products on the shelves and everyone assuming you're buying a gift. I found Pinup salon with a web search and was so happy when we connected by phone. Jen was very compassionate about my situation and revealed that I was not the first person of my gender identity to hire her for lessons and makeovers. We've done several lessons so far, and she escorted me to Ulta to help me build my own kit. She's also done several makeovers on days when I just want to take photos or go out. She's very talented, witty, wise and loving. Turns out, several of my friends go to her for hair -- and they have the cutest 'dos on Earth. I am growing mine out this year, but am so thankful I can call Jen for a cut when I'm ready. Having such a wonderful place in West Seattle where everyone can feel welcome and beautiful is such an asset to our community. read more

I LOVE Pinup Salon! Jen has been doing my hair for a few years now and I can't imagine going to anyone else. She always does such a great job and I leave feeling like a million bucks. She has cut and colored my hair and I've never once not loved it. She listens well to what you want and executes with perfection. Jen is also really easy to talk to, you are her number one priority when you are sitting in her chair. Call Pinup and schedule an appointment, you won't regret it! read more

I have crazy hair. It is half curly, half straight, very fine, but I have TONS of hair. I have been going to Jen for a little over a year and have had everything from highlights, lowlights, full color, perms, and many cuts. I love my hair! I had spent 25years getting bad haircuts, but Jen saved me. She knows my hair, and has even told me no when I told her what I wanted. She really does care about your hair and won't let you blindly turn it into a disaster. She also saved my bf's hair. He has always hated getting his hair cut because it always turns out awful. Jen did such a great job the first time that he now goes every 8 weeks for a trim! When she did his first cut, it had been A FULL YEAR! since his last cut, and it was BAD. Now he looks 10years younger and his hair always looks great even with grow out! Thanks Jen you are awesome!! read more
