Halo

Jen is my regular hair stylist. She has never let me down, I consistently leave Halo feeling beautiful and stylish. I have had both color and cuts from her and she rocks! As a waitress my finances depend on how good I look and I get compliments all the time after visiting Halo. Thanks Jen!

I've been going to Jen for over two years and have received consistently amazing cuts. Jen is extremely friendly and somehow manages to add texture and depth even to the simplest of cuts. I've tried out quite a few of the salons/stylist in downtown and capitol hill, and Halo is hands down the best. It has great decor (they feature constantly changing artwork from local artists) and extremely talented stylists--and, unlike most salons in the area, the staff is down to earth and completely unpretentious. I normally wouldn't go out of my way to write a review, but Halo *and especially Jen* definitely deserve the praise.

I had an idea of what I wanted my hair cut to look like but I was hoping to get some input from the stylist. Colleen, the stylist, listened to what my general ideas were and then made them better. It was obvious that doing a great job was important to her as well as to me. She took ownership in the process. That does not mean she told me what would look best and did not care what I thought. It was a collaboration. The sort of experience most people would envision from a great stylist. Now that said, it's nice that she cared and had fantastic input but lets face it that only gets you so far. If she can't back the ideas and customer service up with solid cutting and coloring skills. Happily she can and she did. I love my hair cut!! My boyfriend and others comment on how cute it is often. The color is perfect. Unless you knew it was colored you wouldn't. It looks that natural. Exactly what I wanted.

I've been going to Colleen at Halo for the past 18 months and have had an excellent experience. I was referred to Halo by my previous stylist in Austin, TX. Since I've been going to Halo, my hair looks great! I've had so many compliments. I'd describe Halo as a comfortable, unfussy yet stylish place with genuine, friendly staff. Colleen has found a nice balance of color & highlights for my hair that suits my skin-tone. She has given me haircuts with subtle layers that grow out nicely and that look good all the way 'til my next cut, unlike sloppier 'dos I've had in the past. As a stylist,Colleen is a attentive, professional, prompt and she knows her stuff, so she's fast, which I totally appreciate!! I feel comfortable having my hair in her capable hands! Thanks Colleen!

Halo is a great salon with reasonable prices and a comfortable (yet very hip) atmosphere. Colleen Christian has been cutting my straight hair since 2005, taking it from long layers to short and hip with subtle changes in betweenalways with great results. She's also good at hearing what you have to say about your style and maintenance routine, makes thoughtful but never pushy suggestions, and remembers those details for later visits. I've never really stayed loyal to a stylist for this long, she's friendly and fabulous!
