I found this place by accident and am so happy I did! She gives me a cut called 'sauvage' (french…read morefor wild) which leaves my hair looking so healthy and full! (Like a Hollywood blowout!) She is also very good about not taking off too much length! Her prices are very reasonable, and she has great stories to tell. She always manages to fit people in, even last minute. Be aware that she is not very efficient and a simple cut takes almost two hours. However, this is because she treats you like an old friend and your appointment is not just about your hair, it's about visiting too. Even though I live in Seattle now, I still come here to get my hair cut, she is that good!

I was still there at 6:30. I went a few days later to have some more highlights put in my bangs telling her 3 times that I had an appointment at 1:30. Long story short, I ended up late for my apppointment with orange hair.

Traveling through Victoria to Alaska I needed a haircut. I saw the salon from Tapa Bar while…read moreeating. It looked very nice and clean so I made an appointment. Always a little nerve wracking getting a cut from a new person but it was need. I was greeted by friendly staff and the stylist, Shalyn was professional, friendly and asked me what I needed. As she cut my hair, she checked in to make sure we were on the right track. She made adjustments, as needed, to ensure I was happy with the outcome. If I lived in the area, I would have no qualms making this salon my regular go-to place. But I am heading onto the road knowing I am pleased with my cut and met some really great folks!

Highly recommended! Military rate is $21, regular $25, I think. Cash-only is the only drawback, but that seems to be a thing with barbers.

I saw one of their senior stylists to fix a previous colour job I wasn't too happy with…read more The stylist at Shampoo Hair Bar was knowledgeable and helpful. She listened to my concerns, peppered me with questions about what I wanted, and then told me her suggestions/opinions. 2 hours later I emerged from the salon with incredibly natural-looking and gorgeous hair that I am very happy with. The positive results are honestly a restatement to her knowledge, experience and good rapport with her customers. But the positive experience extended beyond the senior stylist's work. For part of the process I was temporarily handed to a more junior stylist (my hair was taking longer than the appointment time - so the senior stylist had to take care of her next client). The junior stylist was able to take over after just a few short instructions, was incredibly pleasant to chat with, and helped make this colour job a success. I can't emphasize enough that you will be in good hands if you go to the shampoo hair bar. All the people in the salon seemed happy and -in my opinion - were getting their hair done in ways which really suited them.

It's been a little over a week since my review. I am extremely angry over this cut. He kept asking…read moreme - so all one length? And I kept saying no. At one point as I was standing in the middle of the salon, I told him no, no, no three times in a row and stared at him. I told him how long I wanted it, with the same cut, just tidying up the ends. My hair was about 1" below my rib cage, layered with lots of natural curl, and of course I have pictures. Now I have all one length, no layers, length is now at my armpit, and my natural curl is virtually gone I am absolutely livid. All these years growing out the length to show off my natural curls and it's all gone. Stay the hell away from this place. If you're the manager, you need to contact me now. The one star apparently is required, but not deserved.
