Cut It Out: Local Hair Salons

So after going to the same person for the last ten years, I decided to look for someone and something new. I was really, really hesitant, but must admit to being impressed with this salon. The outside lacks flash but once you walk inside, its sleek and modern with a definite lavish and trendy feel to it. Everyone I met was friendly and very attentive.

I made my hair appt with Anna Haakenson and have to admit to finding my new hair technician. She was fantastic! The best part, the shampoo/head/neck massage. All I can say is wow!! I seriously could have stayed in that chair for hours. As for the spa, it was very warm and inviting. I would definitely make an appt there if I were in a wedding, a bride to be, or even if I just needed/wanted some pampering and down time for myself.

I definitely recommend Stylus to anyone who wants the royal treatment. I didn't check out the prices for the spa treatments but can say that the salon prices are fair and not overpriced. The best part was feeling like I found the right place. I will definitely be going back!!

Pros: Very hip salon and spa. Hightlights: Shampoo/Head/Neck Massage
Cons: Parking. Its pay to park along the street or pay lots and if you use the street parking, you may have to go out before you are done to put more money in the meter.

When Stylus first opened I was a little skeptical about the neighborhood. Now there are renovations and construction sites galore! Robert has recruitted the best in talent from Seattle, New York and other hot cities. The salon area is bright and open while the downstairs spa/treatment area is calm and restful. Waxing, Mani/Pedi, facials and a really cool spa shower can give you anything you need. Call Natalie to schedule you with Robert , May or Kimberly or anyother staff member.

Pros: nice new salon
Cons: 2nd ave.

OMG!!! Want a facial from heaven!!!!!.....go see Justen........This guy knows his stuff to the nines!!!! I have been to alot of high end spas, but none of the people had the talent that Justen has. His fingers will leave your face feeling soooooooooooooooo awesomely good!! The products he uses are wonderful, and NOT heavy in scent. His fingers are magical, and will leave your skin feeling so revitalized!!! He will massage away any tension you have for sure. His foot massages are to die for!!!! Your feet will feel restored! And if you have sinus trouble Justen can help you with that too, as he has had special training in sinus relief.......my hubby see's Justen every 2 weeks to help relieve his sinuses!!!! Justen is the man with the golden hands for sure and he has a great personality!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S. While your there see Kimberly too..........she gives awesome manicures that your hands will love for sure, and she is a great person to talk with!!!!!!!!!

Pros: Extreme Talent, Professional, Approachable, Fun Place to Hang & Great Value
Cons: Parking can be quirky!! But Do Able!!

Stylus Salon: My new favorite place for a facial is Stylus Salon in Belle Town . I will go back to Justen again and again. I swear he has magic fingers that know just when to gently massage your face to deeply massage your neck and upper back. I love the face products, the ambiance of the spa room and the choice of music. My face has never looked or felt so good. The salon is beautiful and everyone is very attentive.

I have found my new salon AND spa!! I'm a guy... I just want a cool haircut and to look great. The amazing staff steered me in the right direction... robert (the owner) gave me a rad haircut, anna covered up my "platinum highlights", andrea trimmed up my beard and mustache, and then kimberly got my hands and feet looking top notch again. I will most definitely be going back to these talented stylists and I recommend that you do too!

Pros: skill, knowledge, atmosphere
