i've gone here twice for haircuts from Thomas, and both time have been amazing! the receptionist is super accommodating, and it's a very safe space to exist in. definitely recommend :) read more

I was here visiting the city of Seattle and didn't have all my hair products so I decided to book an appointment for a blowout. I did not get a blowout look that I expected I only got my hair blow dried and then the girl proceeded to go in with a iron doing curls which my curls came out horrible after she brushed them out my hair was left puffy. I was not happy with the hairstyle I came out with. Not even 2 hrs later my hair was a mess puffy and very frizzy. Next day came around my hair was very burnt,dry and in knots. I was told my balance was only 85 and I checked my bank for the transaction and they pulled out 102 dollars don't understand where that extra money was pulled for. I did not receive a receipt because I chose to get it emailed to me and I did not receive any type of receipt in my emails. read more

Update! I wrote a crappy review years ago (2006?). I moved and started going to the West Seattle one. Lisa is so talented. I have thin fine hair and she works miracles. She is very booked out, though, do it can be a long wait. I see the other stylists doing wonderful jobs too. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. read more

My first time at Beehive Salon and I must say, the interior design and lighting created such a soothing and calming atmosphere. I booked an appointment with Abi, and she did an amazing job- exactly what I wanted! She was quick, detailed and so sweet. I will definitely be booking with her again, 100% would highly recommend! read more

I stopped in for a quick bang trim and Erika did a great job! I have fine thin hair so it can be a problem getting it to style well but I was really happy with the way it turned out :) read more

When I say I will never forget Shannon and Laura from the Beehive salon for the rest of my life, that is not an exaggeration. THESE WOMEN SAVED MY LIFE AND MY HAIR. First caveat, this is the weirdest accident that has ever happened to me and it was awful. To make a VERY long story short, I had a fluke accident when a pronged home decor item on my bathroom wall got caught in my hair while I was washing my face. When I first realized it was stuck, I figured soaking my hair in the tub with conditioner would loosen it. It did not. In fact, it made it so much worse and matted that it wound tighter to my head and I had to wait overnight until any salon was open the next day to assist. It was mortifying and very painful. The knotted up matting was so tangled at the crown of my head and I was positive I'd have to cut my very long hair off, something that I absolutely didn't want as I am one of those ridiculous people that has a very strong emotional connection to my hair. I called many salons in the neighborhood for help and the one that did have an appointment was a male barber shop and I just knew that wasn't the right place for me as I was having this total mental breakdown at the thought of being bald. I called the Beehive salon and talked to the ANGEL that is the front desk receptionist Daniela. She told me there were no appointments that day but she could hear the anxiety and sadness in my voice so after we hung up, she immediately texted me asking for a picture of the tangle and what it was stuck on. I sent it over and once she saw it, she informed me that Laura would be able to try to help. I was so thankful. Once I headed into the salon, Laura assessed the situation with such kindness, compassion and patience. I could tell from the look on her face that this tangle was BAD. But, she told me she is an avid jigsaw puzzle enthusiast so she would apply that expertise to this delicate situation. She then spent the next 8 hours meticulously pulling each strand of hair out of this tangle. She had to strategically snip some pieces and had to enlist the salon owner, Shannon, to help as they needed a second set of hands because this knot was so bad. Again, I was an emotional WRECK and the prongs were digging into my scalp so the physical pain was not helping either. Laura and Shannon spent time just talking through what was happening, being positive about the outcome, and patiently being supportive while I cried as I saw heaps of my hair on the floor. They even made sure to sweep up the hair every 30 minutes so I wouldn't see the copious amount of hair on the floor and have a full on panic attack. I think I asked them both if the decor item was going to come out of my hair about 32541 times and their response was, "You won't be leaving here with that on your head". The comfort they gave me was something I'll NEVER forget. Laura and Shannon worked TIRELESSLY standing on their feet in order to strategically cut strands to minimize me having to cut off all of my hair, and combing out the tangles once the hair was free from the prongs. Seven hours after I got to the salon, they were successfully able to remove the piece from my hair. All of the patrons at the salon who had been witnessing me crying with pain and anxiety all afternoon erupted in applause and that moment was something I'll never forget. Laura and Shannon then washed and deep conditioned my hair. It was only then that Laura told me that this tangle was one of the worst she has seen in her long career and when I walked in, she was certain I would have to cut my hair. I was so thankful that both her and Shannon kept their cool and were so patient in taking this out because they knew just how traumatized I was. By nothing short of a miracle, once my hair was brushed and conditioned, it turned out I didn't need to cut my hair at all. I was in awe. Truly. All of this is because of Laura and Shannon. I will never forget their kindness, compassion and patience. These two are true hair guardian angels and the gratitude and appreciation I have for them simply cannot be put into words. I think I told them I loved them about 20 times that day and I still don't think that was enough to express how thankful I am. Laura, Shannon and Daniela at Beehive are the most wonderful people and while I am sad we had to meet under such catastrophic circumstances, I'm so thankful that I walked into Beehive that day. I know no other salon would have been able to fix this nightmare both tactically, but also emotionally. Beehive Salon, I love you forever and always. read more

Just moved to the neighborhood and went to Beehive for the first time. It was really easy and straight forward to book and choose your stylist online before I went in. I love the fact that we don't have to wear to masks inside if we are vaccinated. For their cute deco and friendly staffs, I am coming back. read more

Beehive Salon is no longer in Tangletown. I have gone to them twice - each experience was pleasant. One time was before COVID, the second time was during. Both times I was promptly greeted by the receptionist and offered water. The salon smells amazing, they have quality products for sale in front (the same products they use on their customers). I've only ever gotten my hair cut, I've never used their other services. Both haircuts have been amazing, the women who provided the services were friendly, and I would happily trust anyone they employ. read more

I'm 53 years old with wavy (difficult) hair that I've been cutting myself since the pandemic. Charlie gave me probably the best haircut I've ever had, and was also friendly, smart, and easy to talk to. The salon has a sweet, laid back atmosphere, and the price was more than reasonable. Highly recommend. read more

I came here for a perm and a cut, and I had the best time, the most excellent result, and scheduling is no hassle. Parking is a nightmare in this area of Seattle, but it's no fault of the business. Laura is a fantastic stylist and she did a great job bringing my hair dreams to life! read more

Charlie did an incredible job transforming my hair! Thank you We did a 4 hour color correction and these were the results. Couldn't thank you enough! read more

I moved back to Seattle after 30 years in NYC and luck lead me to Tristan (I followed him to Beehive from another salon). Tristan is skillful and creative. He shares ideas and then asks what I want. I love hearing about possibilities - sometimes I go for a new do or color, sometimes I don't. I always leave Tristan's chair feeling fabulous, delighted with my look, and pampered. Red is a difficult color to maintain, so all you redheads (or red-curious!) folx out there, your mane will be gorgeous after a session with Tristan. read more

I go to both the Queen Anne and West Seattle locations. They are both awesome. I see Shannon at Queen Anne and Lisa at West Seattle. I have naturally wavy-straight hair. Pretty straight forward hair, but they do a great job with my long hair, long + elegant (soft) layers. Simple cut, but believe me, other places have messed that up by being too 'choppy.' Happy with this salon and will keep coming back! The layers grow up really well too. I like that you can also book different artists based upon your budget too - so if you can't afford the most senior person, go for a junior person and still get a great cut! Thanks Beehive! read more

erika is a master of fine hair. she gave my straight, fine, thin and limp hair a lovely, easy-maintenance look. when i told her i do not like to style my hair, and prefer a wash and go cut, she delivered. many stylists have used product, tools and techniques to give my hair a great finished look...but one that i cannot replicate at home. erika used a dash of aveda volumizing tonic and a diffuser to gently dry and scrunch my hair, producing a finish that mimicked air drying. i was able to recreate the look at home easily. although the "fantasy" look is fun, i appreciated her focus on reality, so that i did not end up disappointed a few days later. thank you, erika, for your attention to my preferences, and beautiful detail! read more

I have been using this salon for a few years now. Booking online is always super easy and the stylist that I am paired with is always wonderful. The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. I am always out the door in a timely fashion. My most recent visit was with McKay and he was so pleasant to work with. Highly recommend this salon if you are looking in this area. read more

Tristain's the best. Great cut, considerate, fun to talk with. The front desk staff are always nice, too.

Just had my first visit to Beehive Salon a few weeks back and I had my haircut by Candice. She did an excellent job! I've been going to the same hair stylist for the past few years and she recently moved out of the country. My mother recommended Beehive and i'm so glad I came in. I was terrified to try a new stylist as my hair is long/very thick and I've had some pretty terrible experiences in the past. Plus im soooo picky! but Candice was very attentive, took an ample amount of time and asked a lot of questions to make sure she understood what I wanted. I am so appreciative of her patience and attention to detail! I will definitely be back. General comments - the salon is well kept, nice entry/waiting area with a wide selection of Aveda products, and a super friendly receptionist. read more

So happy with my haircut today! After years of fighting my wavy hair I asked for a cut to "embrace the waves". Juels was THE BEST! She listened to everything I said and I am actually liking my hair instead of wishing it were different. I will definitely be a regular customer. The salon is gorgeous too! Just book your appointment already! read more

Ivy did an excellent job doing color and haircut. Pretty excited about my look after Covid lockdown. Wanted to give good review for Elliott. She did very good job on hair cut and gave some great suggestions on what to do about my damaged hair. She spends time trying to understand what you want and provides great suggestions. I am going back for color ! In terms of salon it looks very cute and easy to find parking . buI didn't love their sitting area - trendy but not comfy , wooden benches. But it's not a big deal, obviously. read more

I love Beehive! The entire staff is friendly and welcoming. Tristan does my hair and from cuts to coloring I always get lots of compliments. He is also very friendly and truly cares about his clients. I have often felt pressured to buy products at other salons but that has never happened here. Great place! read more

Lauren in the West Seattle salon gave me a flattering cut and highlights that turned out nowhere near as warm as I feared! Stylists usually tell me that my color will be "warm," which for me translates to "sparkly pumpkin." This color is so natural and in some light actually ice cold. Lauren is a genius with color and coarse hair. Her background in art really informs her understanding of weight, motion, balance, and color. And she is really nice about it if you show up with covid hair! I'll be able to grow out some grey in a cute, fun way. read more

I have been seeing Elliot for my hair needs for some time now. She has colored my hair, cut my hair several times, keratin treatment and also done multiple hair spas and blow dry. I really recommend her, she does a great job and is very honest. She tries to understand what you want and works with you to make sure you are happy. She also recommends products that are useful but doesn't try to sell you products you don't really need if your current hair care routine is fine as is. I've got many compliments for the hair color she gave me, she knew exactly what I wanted. I trusted her and I am really glad I did. The salon itself is cute and very open. They sell lots of aveda products for hair and skin. I will continue going to the salon. read more

Jessica fixed my botched haircut from a different salon and made me feel amazing again! Two days ago I had the horrible idea of getting a cheap haircut from Greatclips and lesson learned, when it comes to hair, take the high road and come to BeeHive for quality and expertise. It will be worth it every single time. When I walked in, my hair was flatly chopped at the bottom and the "layers" looked like Edward Scissor hands had a go at my hair after he had too many drinks and a nasty eye infection. Jessica listened so patiently about what happened, asked questions of how I wanted my hair to be and then followed up with a final "is there anything else you wanted to tell me about your hair or style". After and hour the WORLDS BEST SCALP MASSAGE (no joke) I walked out feelin my oats and strutting like queen B herself. Just kidding, but see before and after pics. read more

I made an appointment here based on the fact that my close friend goes here. I'm in from out of town. They called me 1 hour before my appointment asking me to come in later, then told me that it would take 3 hours, which I've never heard of for this service. When I said that I could not come in later, they told me to reschedule, which makes zero sense because I am here from out of town. I work FT and am a parent I have zero free time so it's highly annoying when I take the time to make an appointment and the other end is not held up. Super unprofessional way to treat a new client, who would have returned every few months when she was in Seattle. I should mention that I also give awesome tips. read more

I would imagine that Beehive is a great salon for women's haircuts. Came here on the suggestion of my wife. Called beforehand to make sure they do cuts for men. Price didn't appear to have been mentioned prior to getting my cut or posted anywhere. $55 seemed a bit on extravagant for a simple cut. It's probably the area. Had to do a little trimming myself the following day. The salon is very spacious and nicely decorated. It smells nice and clean. Herbal tea is served piping hot. Only one esthetician on staff according to the description. Staff seems heavily tattooed. read more

I've been to Beehive Salon twice now, and I have had a pretty great experience during both visits with Desiree. In Eugene, back in May, I started the progress to transition from my dark brown-blue hair back to a light, bright blonde. I saw an Aveda colorist a few times in Oregon before moving to Seattle. Desiree has done an excellent job at matching me with the right color & tone that I'm looking for. Because I have been pre-booking my appointments, I've received complimentary deep conditioning treatments during both of my visits. She's also given me the option to do a scalp treatment. Desiree has been using the balayage technique on my hair, and I love the natural-looking result. My ONLY complaint is that last time, she didn't do so hot with my roots. A few days later, I realized that the roots were painted in a pretty straight line which has made my grow-out really obvious. Before ever visiting Beehive, I did a great deal of research on Aveda and non-Aveda salons in the city. I found that Beehive received steadily good reviews, and the prices here are a little lower than other Aveda salons (like Habitude). Aveda products: I'm a huge fan of the Dry Remedy series - I use the shampoo, conditioner, and the dry remedy treatment (leave in conditioner). read more

Bethany did a lovely job with my new cut today, I came in with only an idea of length and after asking me some questions and sharing her idea for what would look good, she created the perfect style that I love! She checked in with me throughout the cut to make sure I liked the length, if I wanted more layers, etc. Will definitely be going back to see her. Also, the new salon on Queen Anne is really nice, doesn't feel crowded and takes COVID precautions seriously. read more

Oh yes! Its true. You can trust the reviews. After finally finding a great stylist, he got up and moved to (of all places) my old home town of San Francisco. NO !!! I was in a world of hair hurt. I floated by for months and months and months, but now I am happily buzzing around Beehive Salon, and finding that the stylists. the prices and the services here are excellent, AND they serve that delightful Aveda tea you get at the Aveda store. I can't tell you how many times I've wandered into an Aveda store with a tea craving, jonesing, and just hoping to score some of that highly addictive Aveda tea. This is a far, far better option, as the tea comes piping hot, in a large steaming mug and you can sit down and enjoy it (how hard is it walking around the Aveda store with that tiny little cup sloshing around? Gesh!) At the end, walk out a great cut and color and some friendly service. I have to say I was initially put off that the front office staff was completely unwilling to recommend anyone specific for cut or color. I mean they went seriously Switzerland on me. "Well...all our stylists are good. I really couldn't say if one was any better than another. I really depends on you." Ggggrrrrr!!! But I checked a few Yelp reviews for names and stumbled into a good cut, then tried someone else for color, and yes, I was very happy with the result. Switzerland wins! (Tip: Buy a gift certificate at the Aveda store downtown or in UVillage, and take this to the salon if you want to earn Pure Privilege points based on your salon services, including tip!) Did I mention I use Tisha for color, who offers a hand-massage while she rinses your hair? You can thank me later! From cut to color to impromptu chair massage post-appointment, Beehive is an excellent salon to have in your beauty service repertoire. Buzz, buzz, buzz!!! read more

So it's been about a week since my haircut and i have to just say ... I'm obsessed. I'm so thankful Mckay was there to ease my mind about my current situation (fried hair due to at home dye process) and helped me cut away the damage without taking off too much length. I appreciate this person's kindness and talent and will absolutely be returning. Thank you Mckay!! read more

I'm writing this review during a time of uncertainty. Seattle, the nation, and much of the world are currently practicing social isolation and trying to limit the spread of pandemic. As a result of this, many businesses have had to close their doors. Many of these businesses are pillars of our communities. They are places we visit because they offer goods and service we're looking for, yes, but we also continue to visit them either because we identify with their values, we make strong connections, or they simply make us feel and look good. Beehive Salon does all of these things. I started going to Beehive Salon in Tangletown shortly after moving to the neighborhood in 2008. I honestly don't remember who my stylist was, but I do recall a friendly environment, a nice vibe, and excellent haircuts. Fast-forward a few years, and my husband and I opened our own hair salon in Seattle. We have continued to cross paths over the years with Shannon, the owner of Beehive, through forums and get-togethers of other salon owners in the area. We have always admired her warmth, gregariousness, and ability to lead her team and business. We were also very excited to see Shannon open a 2nd location for Beehive in West Seattle. Occasionally we have received resumes from stylists that we didn't have a position for, and without hesitation directed them to Beehive and Shannon's excellent leadership as a great place to build their careers. Who knows when we're all going to reopen, and what that might look like, but right now, we're all turning to our computers to stay connected. I've been seeing several great ideas about what we can do to support our local businesses during this shutdown, one of which is to leave a great online review in order to help them get more customers when they reopen. So this evening, I've decided to turn off the news for a bit, and recognize Shannon and her team for their stellar work. If you're reading this review, and have ever visited Beehive Salon, whether it was yesterday or 15 years ago, give them a bump and a shoutout. I'm sure they will be eagerly looking forward to seeing you all again soon. read more

Just had my haircut with this god- sent hair stylist, Tristan! I was very happy and can't thank enough for how the haircut was exactly what I was looking for. He took a time listening to my needs and pay attention to all the details. I was very impressed and got lots of compliments. He will be my go to person from now on for everything hair related. The location is convenient, easy to find and the salon is very clean. Can't wait for my next appointment! read more

I went in for a hair color. I was extremely nervous since I hadn't colored my hair before but, was looking for some change. I have been to beehive before for a haircut and was happy with it so thought of trying to get my hair color done here. Big mistake! I showed the stylist pictures of what I wanted and she recommended partial highlights, though I wanted a partial balayage. The color is very uneven and patchy and the partial highlights give it a very ugly look. I am extremely disappointed in the work that was done and sad that I'll port have to spend more money to get it fixed now. I am very upset because this is something I am going to be looking at everyday now. 2 stars because I still like the haircut. I would not recommend this place for color based on my personal experience. You are welcome to take a look at how badly my color turned out and save yourself time & money. read more

I've been seeing Schona here for at least 3 years for both cutting and coloring. She also did my hair for my wedding, and I loved it. She always has great advice about what to do with my hair, and can help reel me back from some of my crazier ideas. Even though this is an Aveda salon, I never feel pressured to purchase their products, but they do always leave my hair feeling clean and smelling (and looking) good. The salon is lovely inside, it's always very clean and the decor is very cute. The staff are always friendly and offer coffee, tea, etc. Parking is surprisingly easy in the surrounding neighborhood as well. read more

After my last visit with Erika, Shannon reached out to me to come back get my hair fixed with Meg since she was so good with my hair. After consulting with the both of them they recommended I do a complete new balayage to make sure I will be happy with my hair so we rescheduled for a different day to come back. I love that Meg was so accommodating to make sure i was taken care of right away even though she was fully booked. They gave me a free olaplex treatment which was super nice since my hair is so damaged and she even styled me afterwards. I wasn't expecting to spend $200 but it is what it is and I'm glad my hair is fixed now and back to what it looked like before. Meg is amazing and her personality is awesome so I will definitely be back to see her in the future, thank you guys so much for all you did for me! read more

After reading comments from fellow Yelpers, I decided to come in to Beehive Salon and see Anna. Anna was nice and pleasant. She asked me what I wanted and stuff. So when before I had my hair cut, I came in with my hair iron-curled. Anna thought that I should have my hair styled the way it was when I came in. From the way she said it, I totally thought it was supposed to be a complimentary service.However, it would take a lot of time. So I told her to just kind of straighten my hair a little bit instead. When I went up to the counter to pay, Anna told the cashier that I was supposed to be charged an extra $15 for it. After Anna left, the girl also snapped at me. She thought I should have let them know in advance if I had wanted my hair done after the haircut, so that they could arrange Anna's schedule. I was hurt by this. First of all, I DID NOT ASK FOR IT Second of all, I WAS CHARGED FOR IT And third.. I FEEL INSULTED I have been thinking over this and thought that I should just let it go, but I think people should know that this salon is not indeed the most perfect salon. Cheers! read more

I just got my hair cut here again today. And I wanted to restate my love for this place and Kirby. Really, she is amazing and does such a great job. Plus, she makes it fun to talk to while you get your hair cut - none of that cheesy small talk crap. The place is nice and clean, the ladies who work at the desk are always super friendly, and the other stylists seem to have just as happy of customers too. Between now and the last time I was here, I tried a few other places - mostly out of convenience and today reminded me why I shouldn't even bother anywhere else. I love, love, love my hair. It may not look like a huge difference to other people, but I can always tell it's been cut nicely. read more

Downer 1: The stylists who work here do not actually sport giant beehive bouffants. Downer 2: This salon does not actually specialize in turning your mop into a giant beehive bouffant. But! The stylists are friendly and fashion forward and fetch tea. They use eco-conscious Aveda products and wood antique desks for their stations and the walls are covered with lively local art. I've gone to Faith, Laura, and Robin and always step out looking/feeling dap. Faith inverted my bob a year and a half ago, before inversions were bobbing up everywhere. Laura dyed my 'do a deep sultry brown, and Robin has slowly lightened it back without harshing its mellow. If you are like me and book at the last minute, you can feel secure no matter who you see--they are each so skilled that you can't go wrong. As long as you are not much bothered about leaving without a giant beehive bouffant, this place is a-ok. read more
