I just wash and dry. I have no styling skills. My ideal haircut works with my slightly wavy hair to coax more movement out of the existing waves. Queen gave me just what I wanted: lots of swoopy layers with zero effort on my part. The haircuts at my last salon were getting quicker and quicker, so I looked around for someplace new. I decided on Trapqueen, and am happy I did! There was good parking, the salon was lovely, and Queen was so sweet and fun to talk to. read more

I can't recommend Trap Queen Salon and Andrea enough! I came in with permanent black dye and a goal of going blonde, and Andrea somehow got me to a beautiful blonde with no breakage. She was incredibly knowledgeable and careful throughout the process, which gave me so much confidence in the transition. The overall health and condition of my hair is honestly better than I expected after such a major transformation. Andrea was also so kind, personable, and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience even better. I'm so happy with my hair and can't wait to continue my blonde journey with her. I'll definitely be back! read more

Kimberly was my Hair Stylist! I asked for a Milk tea half Balayage with a Butterfly Layered Hair cut! I had highlights before but Kimberly was able to bring Balayage back into my life! I love the work she's done! I truly loved that she asked thorough questions, gave lots of wonderful feedback on how to take better care of my hair as they have become much more fragile due to multiple hair dying process! Thank you, I love my new hair and haircut! Price: Half Balayge $190 Another added bowl of dye $45 Hair cut $60 Plus tip was added Parking is abundant. Entrance is inside the building instead of being outside which was confusing at first! Air condition is blasting here by the way! I'm glad it was cool throughout my time there! Pictures are from Kimberly! read more

Join the blowout club! It's an amazing deal! Four blowouts a month for only $140. That can't be beat! Erika is adorable and super sweet. She has done my blowout straight, with a curling iron, and with pinned curls and I love them all! I've added a hair mask to the treatment a few times, which leaves your hair silky soft. It's always a pleasure coming here because Erika is wonderful! She is extremely responsive as well. Scheduling with her has been a positive experience. read more

Andrea did a great job on my haircut. I love it & it's so easy to style. I have fine, curly hair, so it's not easy to get it to look so good! I was really impressed with the time she took to cut my hair & made sure it was what I wanted. The shampoo massage was the best too. I highly recommend Andrea. read more

Sophia did such a good job with my chunky highlights - she came to our appointment with reference photos, asked clarifying questions and helped me explain exactly what I wanted and it came out better than I expected! 10/10 would definitely recommend booking with Sophia!! read more

I always trust these ladies to get me looking right and feeling confident before special events. This was my third time visiting the salon. Every time I need my hair looking its best, I go to Queen. I panicked a little after making last minute plans, but thankfully, she was able to squeeze me in. Her team is so quick (had me in and out of there in an hour) and I love her work. Such a cute, girly spot, plus they've always got good music on. read more

I had an appointment for a grey blending at 9:30 am, but Andrea arrived at 10 am. I had been waiting for 30 min standing in front of the door. I had made it clear via texts that I wanted grey blending and that if they thought the hair was healthy enough, they could add some highlights. Instead, I received balayage, and the bleach was left on my hair for four hours. When I washed it, the bleached hair looked partially white, tangled, and many of the strands broke down and fell off. She then added a dark color to the roots and toner, basically covering up the highlights. Also, stain of color were left on face and forehead. Update after owner reply: The dark root was not done at my request -- that claim is completely false. I specifically asked Andrea for grey blending, which was not done. I also requested a lighter color on the roots, but she said it wouldn't look nice with the rest of my hair. Additionally, I asked both you (via text, which I still have) and Andrea to evaluate the condition of my hair before proceeding. If, as you stated, the hair was already so damaged, why did your team still move forward with such a harsh treatment? Maybe you want to take some responsibility for the poor quality of service provided, instead of placing the blame on the client. read more

I came for a much needed cut and style. I had the pleasure of receiving service from Erika. I usually don't know what to request when I get my hair cut so I trusted her judgement. I got layered cut with a blow out and I was so pleased with the overall service. For those who enter, you do have to take the elevator upstairs and it's a couple of doors down the hallway. I was a bit lost when I first arrived to the building so I miraculously found my way up. The space was spacious, clean, and very calm. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll make sure to get some other work done on my hair. read more

Found this salon through Yelp and thought to give it a try! It is in a building with other businesses and I thought I was in the wrong place since I only saw auto companies names posted but parked and looked around and was in the right place. Makayla was my stylist and she took the time to listen to what I wanted to ensure the best results. Made sure to not cut off too much unless I did want it shorter and started with a lighter color since I was choosing in between shades, incase I did want to go slightly darker. Also had a good variety of music playing the whole time. read more

Hi! I would like to thank Kimberly for helping me execute my vision for my haircut! She was attentive and transparent with me throughout the entire process!

Fabulous experience at Trapqueen with my stylist, Erika. She has a pleasant & calm disposition, very personable. She was communicative during the process. She asked permission before applying certain products in my hair, & created the perfect cut for me. My hair looked & felt revitalized when she finished. She even refined my layers the next day since the layers weren't as short as l'd hoped. Not her fault- I could've done a better job looking at my layers after she finished at my initial visit. The salon itself is welcoming, clean, & they play good music. I'll be back. Highly recommend Erika! read more

I was able to get an appointment the same day and got the service I expected. I asked for a trim on my long layers and with face framing and it looks great! It was kind of after hours so it was quiet but my stylist was great. read more

First: access to the building is through the parking structure. I delayed coming in for so long because I wasn't sure how to enter. Second? This place is amazing! I love everything about it. Entering the salon is like moving from a portal to another world: after exiting a sterile elevator and walking down a nondescript hall, the salon is like an oasis suddenly emerging from a dessert. It's bright, modern, and welcoming. Everyone is super friendly, and Queen made me feel instantly at ease - so at ease I was about to ask her to give me a pixie. I have done this before and it does not work with with my facial structure, but she made me feel like maybe this time would be different. I did go for bangs, and they are exquisite: the length and shape are perfect. I could even style them by myself at home, which is a true test of how well a style goes. All in all, I'm very happy. Too happy. I'm probably going to ask for a pixie on my next visit. read more

I've been so stressed about my damaged hair. I tried so many salons and always left disappointed... until now. Makayla truly brought my hair back to life. She trimmed, cleaned up all the dead ends, and gave me the healthiest cut I've had in years. I even left with happy tears. Thank you so much, Makayla. read more

I've tried many hairdressers in the area but Sofia at Trapqueen Salon is the best! She has cut my hair many times now and always listens to what I want. The quality of cut is top notch and the price is fair! I highly recommend. read more

The absolute best hair salon you could ever go to! The place is decorated so cute and comfy. They had snacks that kept my daughter happy while getting her hair done. My daughter got a haircut and some purple streaks in her hair for her birthday and I got a cut as well. I have never had such a thoroughly detailed haircut before, and the owner really brought my vision to life and gave me the exact bangs and layers I was looking for. I was also worried that a good amount of inches would have to be cut off because my hair felt really dead/fried at the ends, but somehow she restored the health of my hair and kept the majority of my length. Everyone who works there is welcoming and the owner is the absolute sweetest. Can't recommend coming here enough, we are officially coming here forever. read more

Best experience ever from booking to walking out. I requested a last minute cut for my 11 year old daughter on Yelp and Trapqueen accommodated us that same day! The hair stylist was so sweet and friendly with my daughter while I chatted about mom life with the owner who was also so nice. The salon is clean and decorated so cute. I would honestly give this salon 10 stars if I could. If you're looking for a new salon, don't think twice about trying this place out, you will absolutely be satisfied! read more

This is my second time at this salon and both times were phenomenal. I got a pretty big chop and asked for layers with face framing. Sophia always does me right. All of the people at the salon are very caring and were very flexible with me. My coworker also asked me where I went because she liked my hair so much!! Thank you!! To get to the salon you have to go up some elevators and walk around so it might be confusing but it's worth it! read more

My stylist Sophia did a great job! Love my hair. I was definitely tense changing my hair from black to ash brown. But the gentle hands of Sophia were so relaxing. Her washing my hair was like a spa treatment. I am definitely looking forward to my next appointment. Of course, the result is amazing. My hair has not been this stunning for years! Prior to Sophia's work, Queen did a test strand 2 days before getting my hair done to make sure that they could meet what I expected. I appreciate Queen's honesty that my expectation of blonde will not be realistic. That to me is how excellent service is provided. Thank you Trapqueen Salon for the beautiful locks I have. I love it so much! read more

Makayla did my hair, and when I expressed some concerns about the results, the owner reached out to me immediately and was incredibly kind and helpful.

It was my first time here and Makayla did a beautiful job with my hair. Wasn't expecting a full head massage when she washed my hair either but it was a beautiful and relaxing surprise. The entire time she made sure I was comfortable. I really appreciated her time and I never felt like she was rushing me out. She took her time and made sure I was good. Excellent service from her. read more

Makayla is the beest!! Super easy to book online, I was desperate for an overdue haircut. My hair is not the easiest to work with (wavy, tangles, dead). Makayla really listened to what kind of haircut I needed and cut it to what worked best for my hair and lifestyle. She really took her time in cutting my hair and styling it. I'm so grateful for Makayla!! Thank you can't wait to be back!! read more

Got a chemical burn on my scalp because the heat was too close to the foils. After the incident, I asked if I could come back another day because I wanted to give the area the opportunity to heal, but they disregarded my requests and told me they want to finish because they didn't want unfinished work. At the end of the appointment, the owner gave me a 10% discount and then tried to imply I burned myself because I adjusted myself in the seat... It's been almost three weeks since the appointment and there's still a giant 1.5 inch scab on my scalp and I'm losing hair in the area. read more

Sophia is the sweetest! From the moment you sit in her chair, she makes you feel totally at ease. She really listens to what you want and offers helpful suggestions without any pressure--always checking in to make sure you're both on the same page. Her shampoo technique? Absolute heaven. Honestly, it's the most relaxing part and puts me right to sleep! Every time she's done, I leave feeling refreshed and beautiful. She nails the style I want every single time. So glad I found her at Trapqueen Salon--I'm officially a regular now! read more

Trapqueen salon gave me an amazing hair transformation! I've never had a head full of foils, and owner Queen explained how my hair would lift with the bleach since previously being dyed with box color, 6 months prior to my appointment. She explained the process, and answered all my questions. I was blown away by the after math of the process! Highly recommend Trapqueen salon for all your hair needs read more

I want to say thank you to the owner Parker for not only getting me in as soon as possible but also taking the time to consult on my hair goal.

Excellent service. Responded to haircut request within minutes. Was a little nervous at first since I'm a dude with long thick curly hair and I hadn't been to a barber/salon in 15+ years (super selective with who I let handle my hair). Andrea helped me out and gave me the cut I wanted. Service and vibes was A1, Music selection was on point. A+++ read more

Went to see Andrea for a much needed color correction and haircut and she completely transformed my hair! My hair was so orange and brassy from a previous attempt at going blonde at another salon, but she was able to lift it and blend out the harsh shadow root I had before too! She is always so kind and accommodating working with all the hair I have! The blonde came out exactly like I wanted! Definitely recommend going to Andrea, she's amazing!! read more

Queen is amazing! She really took her time and consideration in cutting, coloring and styling my hair. I really appreciated her input, honesty, and guidance in choosing what exactly I wanted done to my hair. I went in for a colored balayage but decided to also do a cut to fix an uneven job done by a different stylist at a different salon. Queen was communicative every step of the way in quoting me and in coloring, making sure I got what I wanted from my inspo pics. My hair looks and feels so flowy and light from the cut (I have thicc hair), and the color turned out even better than I could've imagined. NOTE: Just in case you wanted to know, this took about 4.25 hours, which is what you'd expect from quality hair service. read more
