Ashley is a true visionary artist.... Not to mention her personality is equally amazing! If you're looking to reinvent yourself with a daring new look then what are you waiting for? Schedule your appt. today! read more

this salon is amazing, exactly what I was looking for. I made an appointment after reading glowing references online, and wasn't disappointed. first, they care about the customers. you are welcome with a coffee and a consultation where the stylist actually gets to understand what you want. I brought in a picture of what I was looking for, and Andrea made suggestion and then gave me this amazing haircut! the whole appointment lasted more than an hour, and I was absolutely delighted. definitely five star salon! read more

I haven't had a truly great haircut in years. I am older, so most stylists want to make me look like Betty White or give me that cookie-cutter bob you see on so many older women. A friend and her daughter referred me to Andrea at Salon Joseph, and she is wonderful! Andrea worked with my hair (fairly curly) and my personality (youthful but not inappropriate) and gave me a stylish do that is specific to me rather than a copy of everyone else. Best of all, it looks good with no effort. Highly recommend her. read more

Monica Potter is AWESOME! I move frequently and it is always a challenge to find a new stylist to cut my hair. I found Monica through her previous glowing Yelp reviews and I have not been disappointed. Not only does she cut my hair exactly the way I like it...she also colors my hair, which has taken my hair to the next level and it looks and feels amazing! ...and she is very accommodating and manages to fit me in when I have a hair emergency. I am moving again...but not far and will travel from Kirkland to continue getting my hair cut and colored from the BEST! And did I say she is a lot of fun? :) read more

I cant wait to see Kelli today so she can make my hair look amazing again! She always recommends the best colors and styles for me. I never left unsatisfied, she is truly the best! See you later! :) read more

I am thrilled I found this jem. David listens AND understands my hair. He is AMAZING with cut and color. I love the Balayage he has done for me with purple. I have been looking for years for a hair stylist that could give me the color that I want and I finally found it! read more

Saw Tessa for a partial highlight and absolutely love my hair! Will definitely be coming here from now on!

Anne cut my hair - she was terrific! The price was right, too! Loved this place! read more

I highly recommend Travis at Salon Joseph. I've been going to Travis for years - he is an amazing stylist and has great product knowledge. I find him easy to communicate with and he always sends me home with an amazing head of hair. I trust his recommendations and he's always so happy - and happy to see me - when we have our hair dates. I have long, naturally curly hair and it takes someone with great training to be able to cut it correctly so the curls spiral at the correct point. I am saddened to learn of a customer's poor experience, but this is not an accurate description of Travis. His customer service is first rate, he cares about his clients and I'm sure he's horrified knowing someone feels this way. read more

I was once a die-hard patron of Robert Leonard's. But, they got too pretentious for me. After searching in vain (not vanity) for a new stylist, I came upon a review for Salon Joseph. I tried them out 3 years ago, and I've never looked back! These people are the best! I absolutely adore my stylist, Ashley A.! read more

Claire at Salon Joseph is amazing!I am so thankful to finally have a stylist I can rely on and trust to do a great job every time! It can be so difficult to find the right person. Others just kept giving me the same haircut over and over despite my requests to try something different. Claire didn't do this. She listened when I told her I wanted something new, fun and easy to manage. She listens and makes great suggestions and I always walk out with a fabulous cut/foil! Thank you Claire! I love all the compliments I get!! read more

On a whim, while visiting my family from New Orleans, I decided to get my hair trimmed. It had been a while since I received a "real cut" and was slightly nervous. Ivan put all my nerves aside, listened when I said I loved the length, and was able to give me a fantastic cut. He really understood when I said that my hair is extra wavy in the back with some lame/limp pieces in front/on top and gave me suggestions on how to make my hair look more uniform and less "caught in a wind storm". He also blew it out with gorgeous waves, that I hope to replicate (again, he provided suggestions and directions) in the future. A close girlfriend has been loyal to Salon Joseph for many years, and every time her hair looks wonderful. I am happy I trusted my gut (and her experience). I've already recommended Ivan to a friend in Seattle, and told her that it may be a hike from the Eastside, but he is well worth it. I hope to snag an appointment with him in December. The atmosphere was relaxed but chic, I didn't feel out of place and everyone was super friendly and helpful. Super affordable (my cut was $55 plus tip) for a great experience. Hair: blonde, mid to upper back length, very wavy in the back, slightly wavy in front/sides, extra extra tangly. read more

I've been going to Salon Joseph since I moved to Queen Anne just over three years ago. I had a great experience with a stylist who has since moved to another salon (too far away for me to travel), so I decided to stay with the salon even when he'd departed. For the past year, I've been seeing David, who has been nothing but outstanding. For a long time, I've struggled to get my hair to grow past a certain length. Part of the problem is that my hair is fine, breaks easily, and grows slowly. The other issue that I've had for years is that stylists tend to take off just a little too much. What seems to them like a normal, reasonable amount of length to trim off will take me four months of growth to regain. Since I've started seeing David, this has not been a problem. My hair is the longest its ever been, it looks healthy, and I'm extremely happy. He's also done a brilliant job with very natural looking highlights that don't require a ton of maintenance (I only have to do it every 4-5 months). I'm not much one for writing reviews, and so despite being very happy, I haven't really thought to do this until an experience I had last weekend. I was at the salon for highlights, and at the last minute, David and I decided to do the Express Keratin treatment following my highlights. Of course, as happens, it was taking longer than either of us expected. In order to allow my husband to make it out for guys night (I had agreed to be parent-on-duty for our baby for the night), David actually packed up his stuff, came to my house, and finished flat ironing in my treatment while I held my baby daughter. We did it in the kitchen with the window open and the hood fan on high so that the baby and I wouldn't get any fumes. It was way above and beyond. David is THE BEST. I cannot recommend this salon highly enough. read more

It is now December 9th, 2010... (Yelp doesn't seem to change the date when reviews are edited.) This is an important update: Joseph, you are a remarkable treasure, a highly principled and talented artist! I left your Salon today feeling I had received the most spectacular personal care.. my hair color (a double blonde foil) from October 29th, still looks luminous and lustrous.. and the precision perfect haircut you gave me today was one of the finest I have ever received in my 62 years! You have indeed gained my total trust and greatest admiration! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! I hope you have a truly wonderful Christmas and a delightfully sunny holiday in Mexico! See you in January! ******************* To preempt my earlier review (rather than just adding a PS, as I did before) I want to clearly and most emphatically state that "Joseph" personally took a great deal of time, effort, talent, and professionalism today in correcting the problem described below. He is a man of great integrity and compassion! He took what had been a nightmare and turned it into a work of art! The man is a genius! So far he has only been able to correct the color, which is now luminous.. it will take a few months for my hair to grow out enough to correct the cut, but I left the salon elated and very pleased with the extremely well done (and very natural looking) full foil I received from Joseph. I am a natural blonde and once again have the luster restored to my lovely blonde hair. Thank you Joseph!!! ... and Happy 25th Anniversary!!! ******************** I wrote to Salon Joseph in late June after my last haircut with Anna. It was cut just right at the back, but was too long on the sides and too short in front. I never received a response. 3 months later it had finally grown out enough to be cut correctly, and I scheduled a haircut with Travis who Anna had said does the best bobs in the salon (mine is a reverse-bob, shorter at the back and gradually getting much longer at front, with blunt ends, which makes my fine hair look even fuller.) I was in on October 1st for a haircut and a full foil with Travis. It is probably the worst haircut I have ever gotten anywhere in my life (and was NOT a full foil, as ordered and and was NOT the correct color!) After talking about my use of Nioxin 4 (for visibly thinning hair) and the fact that it has really helped, since my cancer, he "thinned" my hair!!! I have always gotten a slight "undercut" that made my hair gently turn under, making it feel even thicker with blunt ends.. he gave me a layered "boy's-type" haircut thinning from the top as he went down. I'm 62 years old and got a punky 22 year old's haircut.. all different lengths, almost shaggy. I came home and wet it down, used mousse, dried it, sprayed it, trying to fluff it up.. but it's flat and thin and horrid and WAY too short!! It will take several months for it to grow out enough to get the kind of cut I asked for and expected. (angry snarl) I am retired and disabled and have to save for months to make an appointment at Salon Joseph. Aside from being very expensive, Travis was cocky and didn't adhere to anything I told him to do. Getting a haircut from someone new is always stressful, even if it turns out well.. when it's a total DISASTER, it takes months to recover from! I am furious.. embarrassed to go out, and the daily upkeep has tripled! I took a jacuzzi bath last night, washed, dried, and styled my hair, and thought it might not be as awful as it seemed, but when I woke up today it was flat and sticking out in every direction!!! I don't see how they can you keep an employee who so blatantly ignores the customers wishes?! ******* PS... from 2 stars to 3, for now. I have since received a very sincere apology from Joseph and a refund for the disastrous $145 horrid cut and foil (that darkened my blonde hair, rather than lightening it.) Joseph has offered to make it right, himself, for free. but it will be several months before it is grown out enough to cut again. He was out of the country when this happened.. which might have been part of the problem. In the meantime, I am left with a terrible haircut that takes 3 times the effort to maintain, and even then I am embarrassed to go out. My top hairs which should go nearly to my shoulders are cut to the level of my cheeks! .. and that shaggy "look" is continued to an inch below my ears. SO far from what I requested, it is unbelievable!!! But Joseph says he wants to make this right... so I will give him the opportunity, in a few months when my hair has grown out enough. Since I am making amends, of a sort, Anna is an amazing person with a true gift for brightening ones life and acceptance of breast cancer.. she is a treasure! Travis on the other hand seems misogynistic and and cocky beyond description!! read more

We moved to Seattle from the Bay Area last August and I am SO grateful I found this salon. David is my stylist. He is excellent. He has really helped me improve the texture and health of my hair. I am 42 and my hair is thinning after having a baby and a few years of doing it myself with drugstore color. He is a pleasure to talk to and I have been to many high end salons in San Francisco. He meets the highest standards of service , abliity and punctuality too. I give him a HUGE THUMBS UP . Definitely go here. read more

Anna does awesome hair - my color has never looked so good, nor have I gotten so many compliments. AND she did this on the initial try - which for me is a first! read more

I have been going to Salon Joseph for years. I have left raving reviews about them in the past. I have moved out of state and came back to Seattle just to get my hair done by them. They have always been amazing until the last time I was there. Sadly that experience made me - 5 year long loyal client swear never to go back. I had made my appointment weeks in advance for my hair stylist. The day of the appointment, I receive a phone call that she is sick and cannot get me in for another couple of weeks. However there was another stylist that was open. I asked if she comfortable with blondes and they said yes. They also told me that my regular stylist kept notes on how to do my hair that the new stylist would be able to follow them. I get to the salon and my consult with the new stylist was terrible. She told me my hair was out of style and there was bad color which is hilarious because I only have Salon Joseph do my hair. She proceeds to completely change my color and then says, "I guarantee my work so if you don't like it come back." I get home and HATE it. If I spend over $200 alone on color - I should love it. It was way darker than I have had it in years. So I go back the next day for her to fix it. This stylist literally PULLED my hair. She was mean and argumentative. I had a huge headache and had to have my hair bleached twice. Honestly even after that - the color was just ok. For the sake of kindness, I will leave her name out of this post. But please people, go some place else for a $200 dollar color. This attitude, poor color and plain meanness is not worth it. read more

Just came from my first haircut with Emily Waddell and am thrilled!!! She took the time to listen, ask me questions, figure out my needs, and gave me an excellent haircut. I needed a classic cut but didn't want to end up with something too boring or stodgy. She delivered beautifully and helped keep me current without being too trendy--perfect balance! She gave me some helpful tips, too, about what kind of ponytail holders to use in my hair to prevent breakage. I will definitely be back... read more

Will have to say Karalee is wonderful. She has consistently given me the best haircut/ style and I know its good because it grows out perfectly. My old stylist would get distracted when her fan club would be in the room, and my hair looked like hell, but no longer! I would recommend Salon Joseph and Karalee in a New York minute. read more

Salon Joseph is an amazing salon. I love the atmosphere, the staff is always friendly and upbeat, always feel welcome, and if you are in a time crunch and need your hair done, they will always do whatever possible to get you scheduled. Worth the price when you want exceptional hair care and treatment. Joseph has been cutting and styling my hair for nearly 15 years. He is loyal to his clients and I love this about him. Thanks for continuosly making me look and feel good about myself.. read more

Fabulous, sweet Jenn has done my hair for over a year. She consults with me every time. I receive many compliments on my color and have been stopped on the street to ask where I have it done. Salon Joseph is professional and friendly. I highly recommend Jenn. read more

Love, love, love this salon! Desk staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend David. He is amazing and has an incredible skill set! read more

i am obsessed with my hair. it is very peculiar and has a mind of its own. my friends were shocked i willingly moved to seattle and wondered how my mental health would be bc of seattle rain. it was never easy for me to find a stylist that would understand my hair AND me. i need a relationship, a friend i can trust with my hair. so when i say monica is the person to see, rest assured i mean it. monica will tell you what can be done with your hair, and what are just your dreams. she is an amazing stylist, has a great sense of humor, and just plain gets me. she is super accommodating and makes the visits to a hair salon more like a girls' day out. i almost feel i shouldn't be writing this review, for i never ever want her to become too popular and leave me. read more

Everyone at the Salon is so nice. My 10 year old niece got her hair knotted up in a round brush. After two hours of trying to get it out we had to cut it out and she was so sad because she was worried she would now have to have short hair. Some of the long on that side was still long, but she lost a lot of hair when the brush was cut out and then more when we combed out the huge knot. But we called the Salon and Joseph and his magic scissors and comb fixed it, and her hair is still long. He blended both sides in front to frame her face and changed the part and she looks beautiful. No one could even tell she lost a huge hunk of hair. WE LOVE YOU JOSEPH thanks for making her happy. read more

I was recommended to Ashley at Salon Joseph through a friend. I've been seeing her for a couple years and she's AMAZING, I'll never stray! She does the prettiest, most natural blonde and she's a master at the blowout! Also, never has my hair behaved so well! I can't decide if she's better at cut or color, regardless my hair is the best it's ever looked and I get tons of compliments! I swear I've sent at least 50 people her way! Go see her, you won't regret it! read more

Monica makes your simple day trip to the salon for a cut and color into such a great experience! You feel like your chatting with an old girlfriend you have known for years however she is always professional. She has a great eye for color and an honest vision of what your looking for as a client and sometimes can't put into words. If your open to it she can reveal a look on you that you never thought you could do. She gives the courage to be yourself or try something new. If your looking for a great experience at Salon Joseph ask for Monica! I promise you won't be disappointed! read more

I've been seeing Monica for at least 4 years now and I pray she never leaves the Seattle area. I swear she has a magic wand. From my first appointment, she just knew what to do to make my hair fabulous. My color and cuts always turn out awesome. Her confidence in her abilities is well founded-she always learning, taking classes and attending trainings in Chicago and New York. If someone offered me free haircuts for a year, I wouldn't leave Monica! read more

This salon has been exemplary for decades and remains current, fashionable and friendly. Monica is the best at Keratin treatments and the entire staff is welcoming. The owner Joseph is not an absentee manager and maintains a steady business that works for everyone. read more

I was a client of Jessica's at Steven Cole Salon for a long time. I really love Jessica. She moved to out the of area. I found myself in need of a new hairdresser. I live on Queen Anne hill. I asked a couple neighbors and friends if they had any suggestions regarding a new stylist. Salon Joseph was highly recommended. One of my neighbors stated it was the best in Seattle. I walk in one day around 5:30pm to make an appt for the next week. There was only one stylist in the salon cutting hair. He smiles at me, and lets me know he will be right with me. With in moments he comes over to make my appt. I explained my stylist has moved out of the area. I am way over due for a color and a hair cut. I must have been visibly nerves. It's stressful finding a new stylist. He promptly looked at my hair. He told me that he though Joseph would take very good care of me. He makes my appt and reaches over the counter holds my hand and tells me that they will take good care of me. I felt like what a relief. I go to my appt with Joseph. He is immediately very warm and welcoming. Then we talk for a moment and I told him I was looking for a new style. I was considering bangs. He smiles with this confidence and says, "lets go for it." I was nervous. I have not had bangs since elementary school. I do not know this guy. Joseph does his magic. I now have this great new hair style and color. Other clients and stylist in the salon compliment me. I left elated!!! I have been back several times to update my color and have my bangs trimmed. One Sunday I was having a party. I wanted a bang trim, a wash, and a style. Joseph doesn't work on weekends. Anne did my hair and she was equally amazing. She has a great hair style of her own. She does a great hair style. I love this Salon. It is worth every penny. Bang trims are complimentary. Joseph knows what he is doing!! His staff is great. The flower arrangement are gorgeous, new, and fresh. The salon is extremely clean. The salon decor is well done. Lots of magazines to choose from. The tea is always warm and yummy. I feel so fortunate that I found this salon. I love Joseph!!! I also love what he does with my hair. I can not recommend this salon enough. A++++ It is very professional and has several talented stylists. The more I know Joseph the more I love him. This salon ROCKS!!!!! You will not regret choosing this salon. It will feel like you found a gift. read more

I scheduled a color/cut with Kelli at Salon Joseph. The salon is very nice and well-kept and the staff are extremely friendly. This is an upscale neighborhood salon with a down-to-earth feel. Kelli spent her time with me and was very attentive during the appointment, starting with a consultation. She did a full foil and a long layer cut. Kelli does a wonderful job with blonde hair, which is hard to find in the Seattle area. She knew just how to achieve the perfect blonde for my skin tone, personality, and individual style. She made it so that my hair style was age appropriate and I felt so beautiful when she was done. I am very particular about haircuts and I now feel more feminine and like I have an amazing style that really captures me. My hair moves freely and is very flattering. To finish up our appointment, Kelli styled my hair to perfection. Best blowout I've ever had! I have been long searching for my perfect stylist and Kelli is my gal! I highly recommend seeing Kelli for your next color/cut! read more
