In Short
The Buddha statue perched above the comfortable waiting area is just an indication of the Zen attitude of the rest of the salon, where owner Quint Eby has designed his space using the laws of Feng shui. A blend of antique and modern furniture and rotating art shows on the natural-colored walls set a contemporary tone. Small details enhance customer experience, like spacious changing rooms and full-length mirrors at cutting stations.

Key Points

  • Belltown Location
  • Color & Highlight Specialist
  • Pureology and Davines

The Inside Scoop

  1. Know Before You Go - Customers are asked to arrive 15 minutes prior to the beginning of their appointment to allow some time to change, de-stress and a beverage of your choice.
  2. Brands - Pureology and Davines.
  3. Look Good - Feeling weighed down? Cut those tresses off and the salon will donate the hair to Locks of Love, that use the hair to make wigs for cancer patients. The salon also donates services to families living at Ronald McDonald House.

Wonderful Service and Atmosphere

by McFett

I've been going to the Quint Eby Salon for a few years and have consistently had great service. I joke that "it takes a village" to keep up this look, but it really only takes Quint!

Quint is a master at his craft

by ddonaly

The Quint Eby Salon is a comfortable, peaceful and relaxing salon. The decor is amazing, the people are wonderfully kind and the location is great. I never have a hard time finding parking. Quint has been foiling my hair for about 15 years, and he is the best. I always leave his salon feeling refreshed and looking my absolute best. I would highly recommend Quint and his salon to anyone.

Pros: Wouldn't trust my hair color to anyone else

Quint Eby Salon is amazing!

by MRay

I love Quint Eby Salon. Quint is an amazing stylist and colorist -- and I love that he uses Pureology products (not only cruelty-free but vegan!). It's a beautiful space, conveniently located in Belltown, and everyone there is courteous and professional. I always leave feeling relaxed and glamorous.

Pros: Talent and atmosphere

great outcome :)

by ejlarson

i have had Mark do my hair twice now, and each time it turns out GREAT! He really listens to what you want, and works with you to get it. He's not afraid to offer suggestions, but they are always very helpful! I wouldn't trust anyone else with cutting or coloring my hair!

Marvelous talented Mark and a salon open on Sundays! I love the Quint Eby Salon

by AngelicaMarie1

Mark David has done my hair for a few years and he is simply the best. Mark not only understands curly hair & understands the theory of reversion, (those with curly hair know what I mean) he's a master with color too - doing things that simply amaze me & in return provide tons of compliments too and isn't that why we have our hair done after all, hello!. He has a style is cutting edge, and his personality is second to none. He's one of the most genuine people you will ever meet. MD is always open to what you the, "client wants"- rather than "what he the stylist wants to do". Although I have seen him for so long, most of the time I just let him create - after all that's what an Artist should do, be creative right! The salon has a very urban, mod, hip soho kind of vibe to it. You feel welcomed from the very second you step through the door. The employees work together and are terrific team. The parking couldn't be better easy to find and the hours are so client friendly - Mark and owner Quint work on Sundays so try and find another place downtown that is actually open on a Sunday!

Great experience.

by meza4

Today was my second visit to Quint Eby. He has cut my hair twice and highlighted it once. I have been very happy with my services. I live upstairs so it is so convenient to have a nice salon in the building. He also does a wonderful head massage at the sink. He is fun to talk to and very sweet. I would highly recommend him.

Pros: location, ambiance, people watching, music, service

Cons: none

Best Cuts and Service

by kathykitkat

Sometimes it is hard to get an appointment at Quint Eby because of my schedule. So, and I hate to say this, I just go to whoever has an opening at the time I need. I have never been disappointed with my haircut there. Everyone is so talented and friendly. I feel safe going to anyone there. I have had my hair cut by Kelly, David and Sabrina. I recommend all of them.

Pros: High skill level, easy parking, hip salon

Pros: Ambience, Friendliness, Location,

Sabrina and Quint are the BEST!

by binda6

I went to Quint Eby and got a great color and cut by Sabrina and Quint. Sabrina did my cut and Quint did my color. They are both extremely professional and highly trained. My color is vibrant and my cut accentuates my bone structure. I agree with the other reviews that stated what a wonderful salon this is. It does not have the LOUD Hip Hop music that rattles your nerves. It is cool and calming. The salon itself is open and quite lovely. Modern. It has excellent artwork on the walls. I could tell a lot of thought was put into the appeal of it's simplicity and clean lines. I felt very comfortable there. They also offered me a $5 Prebook Discount on my next service. I think that is a great offer because it reserved my time plus I save $$$. Plus, I just love my hair! I will be back. Thanks Sabrina and Quint.

Pros: Great cut and color.

Cons: No Valet parking.

Best Color Ever!

by bettysue98102

This salon is like what I am used to in L.A.! It has a downtown feel AND a neighborhood feel. Prices were moderate to high. Service was EXCELLENT. I brought my dog, Baby, and even she was welcome! I saw the dog treats in the window and thought it would be OK if I brought my Baby. She likes it there too! I'm glad Quint didn't bring his dog that day though! LOL

I moved to downtown Seattle from L.A. about a 3 years ago. Seattle is the hardest place to find a good colorist. I searched and searched for that perfect foil. I tried every top salon you can think of in this TINY city until one night I met Quint at a Birthday Party for a mutual friend. He told me about his salon in Belltown and the services they offer there. He was so sweet. He gave me his card and I called him in like a month. When I arrived at the salon he totally remembered me! I knew he would do a great job because I also met one of his clients at the party too and her hair was VERY pretty and the perfect shade of blonde. The one I like.

The receptionist had me change into a robe and offered me a glass of wine while I relaxed in the waiting area. Quint escorted me back to his station himself and I got a consul. He knew exactly what I was talking about and mixed up my secret formula. He was so fast, efficient and friendly. We had a lot to talk about. He knows whats up in Belltown. He processed my color until it was perfect and then did the most incredible shampoo and scalp massage I have ever experienced. We also did a gloss for added shine.

The end result was the most beautiful color I have ever had and I mean EVER. It is just what I wanted. Quint is the best. I hope this review helps you to decide to go there. I think you will like it there too. :)

Urban distinction

by wineorwhine

If you want to know whats going on in Seattle GO TO THIS SALON! I went in to see Quint Eby himself for highlights and he made a shade of blonde especially for me. The result is beautiful. Nobody ever did my color this nice before. After we dished the dirt, I got a heads up on where to go in Belltown. I cant stay at home when I look this good! j/k "No, love YOU!" haha Quint will get it if he ever reads this. His place is cool yet calm and serene. Relaxing. Great music. Organic coffee. Japanese Green Tea. ..and yes...the nectar of the Gods...WINE! Nice. It's a neighborhood salon that just happens to be in a prestigious neighborhood...BELLTOWN.

Pros: scalp massage, resullts, haircolor, excellent service

Cons: pricey but less than a new bag!

Best Cut Ever - go to Toyo, the best !!!!

by citygirl100

Quint Eby Salon is everything everyone says about it and more. A wonderful, quiet oasis with superb professionals (and the very nicest people). Toyo is an AWESOME talented stylist at this terrific salon! I'll bet his color is just as suberb as his cuts are. Every few months I come into Seattle on business from Texas and always visit the wonderful folks at Ottica for my glasses. June trip I was complaining so much about the really awful cut and color I had gotten in Austin, that they got on the phone and made me an appointment for a cut with Toyo, an amazing!!!!! wizard with scissors. After over 15 minutes of analyzing my hair, face shape, body type, and overall look, Toyo spent an hour and 1/2 very precisely dry (yes dry) cutting of my crazy curly/wavy hair and produced a versatile look that I can style casually or more finished. The shampoo and head massage were a revelation and the styling tips Toyo gave me as he finished my hair were the best I've ever gotten. The best thing: this cut works as well in the hot humidity of Texas as it did in the cool damp of Seattle. Finally, hair I can travel with without tons of product and tools, and I don't dread what my hair will look like each day - every single day I get compliments on my cut. Just yesterday, having not even combed my hair after spending 3 hours doing Pilates and yoga, 2 women stopped me in the grocery store to ask me where I get my hair cut! One of them was planning a trip to Seattle so I gave her Toyo's card, the other was very dissappointed as there are no stylists and no salons comparable in Austin (just shops that do variations on big Texas highlighted and straightened hair). P.S. Don't worry about a language barrier with Toyo. Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese but that doesn't matter, Toyo knows what is the best look for each individual and is excellent at teaching you how to style when you aren't at the salon. It's a long distance to go for a great cut by an artist but worth it!!

Pros: Serene Scene, Superb Stylists, quiet and immaculate -- a Restorative Urban Oasis

Cons: Belltown parking can be a hassel-- take the bus!

When I moved back to Seattle I found out Quint had opened his own salon in Belltown! I was so happy to find this out online. He is the only person who has ever been able to do my highlights the way I like it. I have fine hair and it is hard to work with. The salon is beautiful. I had a great experience there. The employees at Quint Eby Salon are very friendly and professional. They are also cool and upbeat. I love going there. I am so glad I found him again. Kudos, Quint! :)

Great Experience

by sdriverseat

Thank you for such a beautiful cut and color. My hair has never looked so good. From the moment I arrived, I was treated in a very genuine and professional manner. I felt nervous at first since it was my first time there. I changed into a robe and was served Organic coffee. I saw Quint and David for my hair services. WE had a group consultation. They gave me a recommendation just for me and I am so happy I decided to take it. My hair looks gorgeous. The salon is very nice. Overall, it was a relaxing experience that made me feel pampered. I will definately return.

Pros: Urban Zen feeling, service, result

Cons: Had to wait 2 weeks to see Quint

Quint is the BEST!

by kjdo

I have been a groupie of Quint for years and I am so delighted he has his own salon. He is the master of hair color and hospitality. Coloring hair can be a daunting experience but not with Quint in charge. Quint brings his vast knowledge, experience and talent of hair to the chair and the result is a fabulous look every time! Quint does such an amazing job and it looks so natural. Quint's salon is a relaxing and soothing environment, with a friendly personal touch. I look forward to my appointments at Quint's salon and spending time in the chair with such wonderfully talented professionals who's main objective is to make me look terrific who can beat that!

Quint Eby = The ultimate salon experience!!

by mdmkat

I ALWAYS look forward to my appointments at the Quint Eby Salon. In fact, a fabulous day is pretty much guaranteed on days when I have an appointment scheduled with David. He has been cutting & coloring my hair for years and that's because I usually feel like I'm a bit of a mess when I walk into the salon, but by the time I leave, I feel like I should be headed for the red carpet. The salon is chic, classy, soothing and full of urban style. Quint, the owner, is extremely hospitable and professional. Charlie recently worked wonders for me in the waxing department. I love telling people where I get my hair done because I feel like it's THE place to go to in Seattle. If you want to be pampered, have great conversations, smile, relax, and walk out the door with great hair, then booking an appointment at the Quint Eby Salon should be on your "to-do" list.

Pros: Service, People, Parking, Location, Ambience, Products

I moved to the Seattle area 9 months ago and I couldn't find the right place to go. This is it! I finally found it!!I've been there twice and both times I have had a great experience. The owner, Quint, is very friendly and VERY professional and so is the rest of the staff (thanks Linda and Charlie!). They listened to what I wanted and they really did the best job! I had a haircut, hair color and eye brows design. I went out the salon feeling like a celebrity :) The prices are very reasonable and I had no problem to find a parking spot. They also offered delicious coffee! I highly recommend this place, you won't feel disappointed! (I didn't!)

Pros: I got exactly what I wanted, very professional staff, friendly and relaxed enviroment, appointment on time, reasonable pricing, easy to find a parking spot, great coffee, great location!

Best Partial Foil

by officedahlia

I have been going to see Quint for a while now, and love going to his salon. It is a very personalized experience - and a very serene environment. Quint does the best job on my hair color that I have ever received, and I've been getting my hair colored for about 10 years. The Quint Eby Salon was voted one of the best Salons in Seattle in 2006 for a reason!
Very sincerely!

Pros: Quality of ser vice, products used, serene environment!

best hair colorist

by eddiexan

I went to the Quint Eby Salon to get my hair high-lighted and loved his work. I have had my hair high-lighted before at other salons and always thought is was ok but Mr. Eby did an excellent job at blending and balancing the color and now I will go no where else to have my hair done. The staff is very friendly and warm and the atmosphere is very clean and welcoming. I hightly recommend his services.

Chicago needs a Quint Eby Salon!!!

by eurban

So, my flight was delayed and arrived late into Seattle. I had been on an airplane all day due to the global warming weather conditions (snow) across the US. Time is limited... dinner at 800pm with a potential client. I get into the hotel and ask the concierge where the top hair salon was to get my hair done right. He directs me to Quint Eby Salon. A short cab ride from my downtown hotel. Lofty space with polished cement floors... love it! Huge art work exposed all over, definitely an urban feel. Warm friendly staff. Mr. Eby himself offered me a beverage and directed me to the changing rooms. From there I was transformed! I mean, it's wonderful that a salon squeezed me in at 645, fifteen minutes before they closed. Mr. Eby and his staff were so warm and inviting, great attitudes! After the day I had on a plane, wish I could take before and after pictures. Everything was excellent from my hair to the customer service. i give it an "A+++++". OPEN a Quint Eby Salon in Chicago please! I'll be back when I return to Seattle!

Pros: that art work, Quint's highly trained staff, personable attitudes, close to hotel's and shopping.

Cons: The only negative I can think of is that there is no Quint Eby Salons in Chicago!

There is only one hair colorist : Quint Eby

by dontbeafraid

I moved to Seattle 4 years ago from LA and have had terrible experiences at several of the "top" salons in Seattle. I could not find a colorist as good as the one I used in LA. I was referred to Quint by a gal at work. Quint set me up on a plan to get my hair color evened out and healthy again. I found out I was using the wrong products too. After about 3 visits, he was able to completly fix my hair disaster. Now I look gorgeous ! I get compliments on my hair all the time. I also get my hair cut there by David. David taught me how to style my hair so I can recreate what he did at home. They have transformed me. I feel pretty again. The salon is very relaxing and they have thought of every detail. Finally, a salon worth going to in Seattle !

Pros: Artwork, Service, not rushed, tall mirrors
