Jeff is an amazing stylist and has great suggestions for maintaining our hair. The place has a nice vibe and is conveniently located near other shops allowing for a convenient evening shopping after being done with a haircut. The only negative has nothing to do with the shop itself, but the location is not the most accessible to get to by walking/rolling/biking/transit. But no issues if driving. read more

i've been wanting to get vivids in my hair for years, but the pricing always scared me. After my wife passed last Dec, I decided I needed a change. 4 months ago, I googled salons in Issaquah. Found Bishops right next to Mudbays, which was one of my errands that day. Stopped in to inquire about pricing for a haircut and getting a vibrant blue swatch. Found the pricing to be quite reasonable Luckily, they could take me right away. Not only did I get the best haircut, but the blue came out so beautiful. Today was my 3rd appointment and I wanted to switch colors. Actually I asked this on my 2nd visit, but Jamie suggested, for the health and integrity of my hair, to wait for some outgrowth. Today, she said there was room for the new color. I am over the moon with how it turned out. She even did the blue, too, even though I told her it wasn't necessary, She said might as well, since it wouldn't cost extra. sorry for the long review, but i wanted to convey how pleased i am with today's service. thanks again, Jaime. read more

My stylist Mars was polite, courteous, knowledgeable... just fantastic - I definitely will be going back to her! She asked what I was wanting and gave me options and time before cutting. Professional and kind. If you pre-book before the next one they give you a discount! Please note that they only take cards, but that's OK. Reasonable price for short hair. Here are before and after pictures. read more

I've messaged management twice now but no answers yet. long story short: probably the worst haircut of my life. asked hairdresser Addy to cut about 4inches of my hair. she cut it about 7 inches off. I went from waist length to just below the shoulder. asked Addy to give me some soft layers-ended up with real choppy ones (surfers could probably surf on those waves). uneven, chunky, big layers. I will never return. read more

The place is very rude and biased towards certain families. They do not hesitate to make a face and talk rudely both on phone and in person. Do not expect a good customer service or a friendly experience at all. read more

I had my hair done by Jeffery, and I am beyond impressed. I ordered a short cut with an additional skin fade and it turned out incredible. Jeffery is absolutely amazing at doing exactly what is requested, with a few personal touches to make it even better. I love that bishops accepts every kind of person, taking kids, adults, and everyone you could think of that a barber might not allow. The casual and friendly environment is the reason that I come back every. Single. Time. I want a haircut. This is the best possible barber in the city to go to. A little pricey but definitely worth the price. read more

The hairstylist was friendly and bubbly but left my hair looking like a boy band style from the mid 90"s I have a pixie and it honestly looks ridiculous I need to find another barber shop that'll do what I want and only that. Thankfully my hair grows out within a few weeks to cover the many mistakes. It's starting to feel like a Great Clips were you have to go someplace else to repair the train wreck they caused I apparently haven't convinced myself enough to switch to another shop but this time I'm gonna try Rudy's read more

It's a great place to go. The only reason why I'm not going 5 stars is cos they recently changed their pet policy (one stupid chihuahua and a Karen had to ruin the fun for EVERYONE) and that the talent is a bit on a revolving door. If you find someone (I recommend KJ) who lasts, lock them down and pay them well. Still, I'd go to this place over any generic barber place 10/10 times. The complimentary beer while you wait is just A+ read more

I choose bishops over other salons for its laid back, comfortable vibe. While other salons seem to be getting more corporate with heavily curated music playlists, strict dress code policies, etc, bishops maintains its relaxing environment by employing free-spirited stylists who seem to genuinely enjoy their work thanks to the lack of micro management. I will keep coming back as long as this is the case. It also helps that Vicki is a fantastic stylist who helped me find the ideal hairstyle for me. read more

I had a haircut with Megan on Wed, 12/6/2023. I had long hair and decided to cut it short due to severe postpartum hair loss. I showed her pictures of the cut that I wanted. I was given several short layers and told she did this to avoid the look of boxy hair. Now, my hair looks like it was done in the 80s. By the way, how many layers and the length of them were not discussed with me. So obviously I was surprised by the outcome. I am not the kind of person who immediately confronts someone. I also like to style my hair a couple of times before I form an opinion. It's been a month and a half of styling my hair in several different ways, nothing fits right. When I look at myself in the mirror, I think of how many months it'd take me to grow it all out and get the hair evened. For a person with severe postpartum hair loss, losing hair itself is a trauma, and on top of that, a haircut this bad is just traumatizing. read more

I am enjoying being a regular at Bishops and have tried several stylists! Everyone has been super friendly and easy to chat with. I love the online scheduling, their Covid procedures are super safe but not overwhelming, and they serve beer for 21+ which I really, really appreciate!! Me time is extra special right now!!! read more

Alex did an excellent job from beginning to end. I missed my initial appt, but she still fit me in on the same day. I'd highly recommend her as we had a good conversation and she provided me with a high quality haircut. read more

Erin has done my color for years. Every single time she does my cut/color I get several compliments......from strangers! The salon has a laid back vibe. read more

12/18/2022 Update: So, it's taken me a while to update my review again as I've been really frustrated and didn't know what exactly to say... So, after having my hair "fixed" at Bishops on 10/26, inside the shop it looked decent, this is where I wrote my review. However in the sunlight my hair was still yellow. I opted not to go and spend several more hours at Bishops to have it "fixed" again. At that point, I realized that they weren't going to get my roots platinum. Over the next couple of weeks, the more I shampooed it, the more yellow it got. The toner was washing out revealing a more intense yellow tone while my ends were still platinum (and mushy). No one has reached out to me regarding any conditioning treatments which I was promised. (The regional/district manager initially reached out to me promising "as many conditioning treatments as necessary" to get my hair healthy again. *See my first review below*) I have since dyed my hair brown so it can grow out since it quite literally cannot be re-bleached due to the significant damage. *Keep in mind, I paid over $230 for these services and was told they won't refund my money regardless of the outcome. I am so incredibly frustrated with this entire situation and I would definitely recommend going elsewhere. 10/26/2022 Update: Today Cassandra (the manager of this Bishops) redid my hair. My hair seems to look much better and it feels much better. She used an oil based bleach that was gentle to lift out the yellow tone and not damage my hair further, she also trimmed off a bit of the really damaged and uneven hair. As it stands, I will be going back to her for my root touch-ups and haircuts in the future. 10/24/2022 UPDATE: A Bishops regional manager reached out to me in response to an email I sent them. They wont refund my money, but are going to try to fix the yellow tone and have offered complimentary conditioning treatments for the damaged ends. 10/22/2022 One star: I had an appointment for a bleach and tone for my roots yesterday. I watched as the stylist overlapped the bleach over my previously bleached hair. She left me sitting for 2.5 hours then toned me twice at the sink. When I sat back down in the chair, she said she was going to give me a "complimentary haircut", but I could see that my hair had broken off where the bleach had been overlapped. I agreed for her to just to shape it up and to make it blend but she cut it so short (I think to camouflage the fact that she messed up and my hair was broken off with parts still breaking off). I told the stylist that I wasn't happy with my hair. They made me pay full price and had a really bad attitude with me. They said they would "fix" my hair for free... My hair is at least two inches shorter than when I went in, keep in mind I was not there for a haircut at all and now it has a dingy yellow tone. The ends that didn't break off are so damaged, my hair feels like mush when it's wet, and when dry those end pieces are breaking off. I paid over $230 for this service. read more

Big shoutout to Chris for being meticulous with her work -- I've been going to her for 0 to 2 guard fades and will continue to come back. I'd recommend her to anyone! Super interesting individual and haircuts tailored to your specific needs. read more

I just went to Bishops in Issaquah for the first time. Devona listened carefully to what I wanted and paid attention to the problem areas that usually get crazy if cut too short. She then did an amazing job with my curly hair and it is a perfect cut!! Thank you! read more

Overpriced and poor quality. I've taken both of my kids in for a simple hair cut and both times they needed to be fixed. First, was curtain bangs that were so horribly cut wrong, almost a year later it's still growing out! My daughter was so moritified she cried for days. My son asked for a simple longer layered cut to show off his wavy hair - we have is a weird mullet style but that doesn't even begin to describe it. At least he can shave his head and start over! They hire poor quality workers or too new that shouldn't be cutting hair without supervision. While I was waiting ANOTHER women came in to get her hair fixed. Just terrible. Will not be going back. Save yourself the heartache, headache and wallet - go somewhere else! read more

Tried this place out after a few bad experiences at other near by shops. Had a great hair cut here this afternoon, so far so good. Got compliments which is nice. I will definitely be back and will definitely be telling my friends about this place. My guy was new to Bishop's from what I gathered, I have his card but it's in my car so I can't name him out right. It's Ray or Roy or something like that definitely see him. read more

They did a bad job on my hair. They tried, but it did not pass the test. Would not go back there again and, obviously no referrals.

Bishops is the only franchise haircutting branch I trust. The staff are very friendly, and if you come in early they'll offer you coffee, water, anything to make you feel right at home. The hip, urban vibe brings off unmatched energy in this hidden art-scape. 10/10. read more

Bishops Cuts/Color - Point of view - Hair Salons Near Me - Issaquah, Washington

My teen daughter and I have been going to see Tain for about two years now. When we met her we were living in Blaine, and she had her salon up there. When she relocated to Seattle, we started driving two hours to Bishops Issaquah from Bellingham just to see her. Yes, Tain is that good! Even though we have some hair challenges, Tain always does a great job on our haircuts, coloring, and perms. I'm a middle-aged Caucasian with hair that is curly, fragile, and graying at the temples. My half-Chinese daughter has a thick straight heavy untamable Asian mane. Whenever we've gone to other stylists, we've always walked out of the salon feeling like the haircut or color just wasn't quite... right. We've never had that feeling with Tain. Tain has been in this business a long time, and her experience just shows in her spot-on style, color, and product suggestions. Tain charges fair prices and sells you only the services you need. She's honest and a clear communicator. For various reasons, we also think she's just a cool human being. So, just make an appointment already... read more

My original stylist was unable to make it in the day of my appointment, but I am so grateful Cassandra was able to fit me in! She did an outstanding job, and gave my hair the change it greatly needed! The customer service was absolutely amazing, and Cassandra went above and beyond. I'm so excited, and am so confident with my new hair! Thank you so much! read more

Love the look and feel of this place and umm free beer!!! Had to give it two chances tho the first time I went in the cut was ok and the experience was bland at best & not what I was looking for probably cause it was soured by the body odor of the gal Cutting my hair!! Then I went a few Tuesday's back, in need of a quick cut. I so LUCKED OUT! Got a great lively cut ,shampoo And a straight razor finish!! From a very professional barber named Tain?? I am pretty sure although i lost her card!!! I will so be back and so close to the freeway too read more

I passed by the Bellevue location a few times and I loved that whatever your gender or whoever you are, you're welcome here. Put my name in for a later appointment and was blessed to get Elizabeth. I was so embarrassed for how horrible my hair was before I came in and she didn't judge me but was honest about how damaged my hair was. Most places would lecture me for hours but Elizabeth was super helpful and didn't feel on that. I came in looking to add dark purple on my hair and touch up my roots, get an undercut and trim my ends. For all of that it was about $175 (great price cause color is by how much color they need to use and I have a LOT of hair). Elizabeth was so sweet and did such a good job. I was looking for a stylist near by and now I don't have to look any farther. She's great with cuts and color! Would recommend her to anyone read more

Great haircut, great and friendly staff. I didn't have to wait at all for my haircut. They have great product there, suavacito is awesome. I just moved up from orange co California and have been looking for a great barber, and I have found it. read more

Took my son to Bishops for a simple haircut and it was absolutely butchered. I don't understand how the stylist could do such a terrible job when it was simply a "short on the sides, longer on top" cut. About 1/3 of the top was cut, and the rest was long and choppy. We've made him wear a hat everywhere for the past week, and I ended up having to re-cut his hair at home. read more

Chris provided great service and an excellent haircut. The manager or whomever it was that decided to pull all the barbers outside of the store, leaving customers in chairs mid hair cut for a flipping "Group Facebook" photo should be fired. The socialization in this place between employees is annoying. Will the real adult business owner please stand up. The owners response to my review is as ridiculous as the experience. She (or he) wasn't even there. The manager literally pulled three barbers from customers to take a stupid Facebook photo. This franchise owner will not be in business long read more

So I am extremely particular about my hair but I also don't think what I want is something super hard. Robert did an amazing job cutting my hair. It's exactly what I asked for. He was very particular about paying attention to detail! You def get what you pay for here. ! read more

This salon is very clean and has a good atmosphere! All of the staff are nice and welcoming. Especially Danielle. I highly recommend going to Danielle for any service! She does an amazing job cutting my hair exactly the way I want (I'm picky with my facial framing) and always provides quality service with a smile on her face. read more

We had a bad experience. My son was about to start at a new school and I decided to get his hair cut right before so that it would look nice for the first week of school. Unfortunately, the barber ignored all of our requests and cut it short and straight across the front, like really short bangs. Ew! None of the things we had requested *and* provided pics of his previous cuts for. It was all pretty clear what we wanted. What was even more clear was that the barber lacked the skills to execute something so simple. Very disappointed. read more

It was not a pleasant experience in Bishops, maybe they have good cuts for women, but what I asked for was quite simple, a short base but even, and I have holes everywhere and they said it was my head or my hair. I always cut my hair the same way. And they didn't fix it! I left the barbershop feeling bad because the barber was having a hard time due to lack of skills! :( read more

I just left Bishops Issaquah after a haircut for my 9 year old son. Bobbie was spectacular! She took care of my son's haircut, showed me how to style his cowleg (never knew the name of this front curl) and all of this in 25 minutes. We came in at 7:32, which was pretty late, I realize. Thus far, this was the best haircut my son has had. The shop looked spotless. I was offered water by the girl at the receptionist desk. Thank you for such great service Bishops team. read more

Bobby did a great job on my haircut. I was taken about 15 minutes before my appointment and she spend a good 40 minutes perfecting my cut.

Adam did a great job! I don't have a lot of experience taking care of longer hair and he gave some really helpful pointers. Really awesome vibe they have in the salon as well. read more

I have super weird curly bushy hair and I have had a lifetime of disappointing haircuts. Bishops gave me the best haircut I've ever had. They understood my hair, knew exaXtly what to do, and did it! I've spent a lot more for a haircut and have gotten a lot less. Thank you, Hailey and Ray!!! read more

Worse than most cheap salons, I thought if i paid an extra $15, I might get a better cut than Supercuts, but the cut was actually worse. She spent 10 minutes cutting my hair and that was it. No layers, nothing. I had to ask her to frame my hair in the style it was originally, otherwise she would not have cut the front at all! I wanted two inches off, she cut 1.5 inches. I hate having to lie to her face and say it's a good cut but I just wanted to get out of there and I will never go back. read more

I have found my new stylist! I have been to a handful of shops and my haircut style doesn't change but the quality and attention to detail does.Cassandra has killed it every time! Consistency is key! I've found my hair grows out better too. She is super friendly and easy to talk to, and very thorough and wants you to be happy with your cut and I always am. If your looking for a great cut I highly recommend you go see Cassandra! read more
