I've never had a bad service at Fringe and I've been going there for ten years. The salon is comfortable. The vibe is relaxed. Parking is easy. It's pricey and sometimes I do have to stay away and readjust my budget. I've recently returned and have gotten three color services from their new colorist, Ian. He's good. And probably clairvoyant because he understands, "Light but not too light, warm but not too warm, and PLEASE no banding." Recommended. read more

jay is AMAZING! she knew just what I needed. I left extremely satisfied, and my hair looked amazing. I feel so fortunate to have found her as a hairdresser. Would highly highly recommend!!!! read more

I was desperate to get my hair fixed after somebody completely messed it up and I had to wait almost 6 weeks to redo it. I had no idea where to start or look, but I knew of this place from years ago.! I was a little worried at first that it was gonna be a color correction and we would have to make another appointment or something, but she went ahead and did her magic! (Jaylin) . My hair is literally exactly what I asked her for she got rid of all the horrible red and now I have my confidence back. I'm definitely going to her from now on.! Shes amazing! read more

Jaylin has been my colorist for over 10 years and she nails it every time! Sometimes we do balayage, sometimes foiling, and she always gives me exactly what I'm looking for! She is worth the 1 hour drive each way to get to. 11/10 highly recommend read more

great for color but not for cut. I've yet to find a great cutter in Seattle. Had cuts there and a bang trim which was $45 wasted dollars. read more

Jaylin has been doing my balayage for years and she's honestly so good at it. I originally found her on Instagram because her balayage photos kept catching my eye. The color always looked so natural and bright, not stripey or overdone like you see sometimes. I finally booked with her and I'm so glad I did. I have really dark, thick hair which I know can be tricky to lighten, but somehow Jaylin nails it every time. My color always turns out good and the blend is so soft. It grows out really nice too so I'm not rushing back in a panic when my roots start coming in. She just really understands how to work with darker hair and you can tell she takes pride in what she's doing. If you're looking for someone who's actually amazing at balayage, Jaylin is definitley your girl. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my hair. read more

I would give all of the stars in the sky after today's visit- Jaylin had her hands full with my hair today! I came in with muddy brown roots and brassy blonde hair from an extension appointment a few weeks ago elsewhere. I've seen Jaylin for a few years now and every time she exceeds my expectations. Her calming demeanor put me at ease as she magically went to work. The outcome was much better than I imagined- thank you Jaylin for helping me see a smile again in the mirror . Your talent is amazing and I am so grateful for you! See you in a few weeks - forever thankful! read more

Girls if you have dark hair and are looking for a bronde balayage, I would run away from here. Don't waste your time or money. Only adding a star because the haircut by another stylist was fantastic. I've been getting my hair colored for over 20 years, and this was by far the worst experience I've had in both results and professionalism. I had an appointment with Jaylin and came prepared (for both the initial and correction sessions) with inspiration photos, explaining that I wanted a bright, high-contrast balayage on dark hair. Because I know stylists define 'balayage' differently, I explicitly mentioned both during booking and in the chair that my previous stylists have always added foils to achieve this look, noting that my hair lifts fast with them. Jaylin opted for open-air painting instead of including foils, citing a preference to 'avoid foil creases.' Unfortunately, this technique failed to lift my dark hair sufficiently, leaving me with a muddy light brown and strong orange undertones --completely different from what I asked for. I returned for a correction (after rearranging my work schedule), only to be told that the look I wanted is not something she offers. Jaylin stated that she and the other colorist only perform hand-painted balayage, but as anyone with dark hair knows, foils are typically required to reach that level of brightness. If the salon only specializes one specific (and subtle) technique, this appointment should never have been booked. It would have saved everyones time and set expectations While I was refunded for the service, the tip was not returned. To further highlight the lack of professionalism, the stylist walked out mid-conversation when I asked what had been used in my hair, as I would need that information for another stylist to avoid potential damage. This happened while the front desk was still processing my refund. Overall, a disaster experience and not the level of professionalism I expected. read more

I moved to Seattle from LA so I had high hopes and high standards for not only cut & color. After a ton of back and forth with the salon, showing how my hair was colored & styled by an excellent stylist in LA, I got an appointment. I was surprised that the same person wouldn't be doing both my highlights & cut but gave it a chance. Wow ... what a mistake. Color was meh ... by Morgan. What was shocking was that Sevin who did the cut never saw my hair before it was wet and colored. She had no clue how it looked dry or where it normally parted. Not to mention, she had no interest in listening. When I said layers or pieces cut in for volume- she blunt cut across the top. My hair has never looked so unhealthy, flat and limp. Adding insult to injury, you tip on both vs one essentially doubling your cost. Unreal. When you tip both 20% vs 1 tip for one all over service- it definitely increases your overall service cost. Found a new stylist who elsewhere who did both cut and color and confirmed what I knew - the cut was blunt and haphazard. And the color - choppy and grew out badly. Maybe good for some but definitely one of those places more interested in their bottom line vs a happy client. I hated this cut / color for 4 months and now that I found something new, I finally feel like I found what was missing. To pay a lot and be unsure for months just isn't for me. read more

I was recommended this salon by a friend and went for a trim and to find a new salon in Seattle since moving here. Because I was new to town, i didn't request a specific stylist and took the next available. My mistake, everyone else seemed great but my stylist seemed very inexperienced. Her haircut was pretty straightforward, basically straight across, but the blow dry was really frizzy and definitely didn't give the "blown out look" I was hoping for. She didn't say anything the whole time, so it was an awkward 44 min of sitting in silence even when I tried to make conversation. when I went up to the counter to pay they requested an additional fee because my medium hair was "too thick" (shoulder length trim). This was never mentioned to me during the entire appointment. The cost was pretty high for a "straight across" kind of cut, especially with the surprise fee. I won't be going back, but as I was leaving there were some really beautiful hairstyles around the room being done by other stylists, so I can believe others have had a good experience at this salon. read more

I could not be happier with the outcome of my appointments with both Jaylin and Shylo! Their skills, professionalism and patience were stellar. I recently moved to Seattle from Chicago and have been searching for a stylist and colorist after being with the same salon for 25 years - not an easy task. But Shylo and Jaylin are a dream team for cut and color and now my dream team. Thank you both for absorbing and managing my anxiety during my first appointments. Look no further for your stylist and colorist! Highly, highly recommend! read more

Highly Recommend! Great hair salon! Everyone was extremely friendly and welcoming. I booked a haircut with James and he did a phenomenal job!! I chopped off about 4-5 inches. There were no surprises and I got exactly what I asked for :) James was attentive and very communicative before making any big cuts. Super appreciative of that! I ended up booking a future balayage as well! (Mostly because when I looked around, I saw how good everyone else's hair was turning out lol) If you're on the fence. I say book! read more

Colour by Morgan, cut by Justine. Colour was good and exactly what I asked for. Cut was the opposite of what I asked for. I asked for (and showed pictures of) lots of feathery layers around the face, shorter layers at the back for volume, and to preserve length. I specifically asked to avoid a blunt cut. I got some face framing layers at the front, but the rest has almost no layering and feels heavy. The hair at the back was cut much shorter to match the length of the front, which is unfortunate because it took a long time to grow out. I will go back but try a different stylist for the cut. read more

I had an amazing first visit at Fringe. The salon is bright, beautiful, and welcoming. I was kindly greeted by the host who offered a variety of beverages. My hair was colored by Holly & cut by Chloe. They both exceeded my expectations and met my hair inspiration to a T! It was time to go back to my natural hair color & start the summer with a shorter cut. I felt so well taken care of by their attentive & caring service. Overall I could not be happier with my experience, love my new hair & will be returning for my next service (before & after photo) read more

I was quite disappointed with my haircut after reading all the positive reviews and having high expectations. To be clear, my stylist was lovely and sweet so I feel bad about writing this review but I still have to give my honest feedback. I paid $100 + tip on my haircut and I honestly can't tell much of a difference from the before and after. I asked for framing around my face, side bangs, and something on the bottom that was not straight and boring. She delivered on the side bangs but nothing else. She basically cut off an inch of my hair and like maybe 5 strands of hair around my face for framing. I asked her for more and she cut off 5 more strands.... I wanted more but I couldn't bring myself to ask again because she seemed so happy with what she did. Again, she was really nice and since she was so excited with her work, I just did not have the heart to tell her how much I really did not like it. The cut was just so....Basic and boring. I know there is a lot of stylists at Fringe and maybe I just picked the wrong one. read more

First time at this salon. Loved my haircut by Chloe. Salon is nice, staff professional and friendly. Service on time. Easy to schedule and pay. Garage parking next door. read more

I have been going to fringe for years and love my experience there! Shylo is my preferred stylist, but truly the whole staff is great. Shylo is so great at listening to what her clients want and delivering exactly what I hoped for! she even did my hair for my wedding which I loved, and lasted all night! she is the best! read more

I love Fringe! I've been a client of Jazmine and Shylo for years and they never disappoint. Jazmine is a master of color -- she knows what looks good for my skin tone and she is super efficient. Shylo delivers exactly the cuts I want and she's a blast to hang with during the service. Sometimes I've had to get in when Jazmine and Shylo were already booked, and everyone else I've seen over the years (Gabe, Laura, Justine, Rebecca, Kristina) have been terrific. They are trained to the highest standards so I know that I'm in good hands no matter who I see at Fringe. read more

I see the talented Holly Bayliss for a partial foil every 3 months. She's always warm and welcoming and does beautiful work with my long straight blonde hair. I highly recommend her! Even though I go in sweats and no make up when I leave the salon I look and feel fantastic! I'm lucky I haven't crashed my car while I admire myself in my rearview mirror on the way home. Holly is at Fringe Salon in the Greenlake neighborhood near the PCC grocery store. Fringe is quite a find. I've seen several stylists at Fringe and they clearly have a high standard for talent. I love the cool and comfy city vibe too. One of my other favorite things about Fringe is there's a parking garage underneath the salon so I never have to worry about parallel parking on the street. read more

Fringe is a great friendly salon. Bella specializes in hair color. I am so happy with the services and color that she provides!

James is worth every single penny and probably more. I got my hair cut and added bangs a couple of weeks ago, and I just absolutely love it. I feel like a million bucks. Thank you, James! read more

I thought about writing this review for a long time, but feel like some of the constructive feedback here gets lost and think it's important to see both types of experiences. Fringe is a beautiful salon, great location and some of the stylists like Holly are sweethearts. However twice I came here for color treatments and cuts and had them done wrong. Once my highlights didn't achieve the color I had asked for so I had to come back for another 3 hour treatment. My more recent hair cut was NOT what I asked for. The stylists seems rushed (maybe overbooked) and did not provide me the cut I requested. They had me stand for my cut, and didn't give me the layers I wanted andddd did not style my hair. For the cost I expected better. I reached out to the studio they did offer to redo it but I needed time for my hair to grow back out, after several times suggested I let them know they didn't work for me and asked for a refund I was told I could get it but never book again. I know a lot of people have good experiences and wish I could say this too, but the inconsistencies won't work and I guess now I'm black listed. I'm struggling having my hair grow back to a place I can get it cut for what I wanted. read more

I highly recommend Fringe salon. I saw Rebecca today for a partial foil and she exceeded my expectations. Thank you for making me look and feel marvelous. read more

Chloe did an amazing job on my hair! I travel often for work so having to constantly find new hair stylists can be a challenge. After reading all the wonderful reviews about this hair salon I decided to give it a try. It's a little pricier than what I'm used to but well worth it. I'll be returning to this salon for the remainder of my time here. To all my travel nurses, this is your salon when in Seattle. Thanks Chloe and Fringe staff for everything! read more

I wish I could give Fringe and Jazmine in particular a 10-star review; the salon and Jazmine are that amazing. I have had my hair lighted for more years than some of the readers of this review have been alive. Sometimes, the end result was "okay", sometimes the end result approached "good" and on a couple of occasions "disaster" was the end result. My hair was never "perfect". No matter the fanciness of the salon, the reputation of the colorist, the cost for the work, my hair was never in my opinion "perfect". That was the case until January 21st when Jazmine did my highlights. On that day in the Fringe salon, my hair became "perfect". Jazmine made my hair "perfect". To be clear, my Fringe rating began long before I ever stepped foot in Fringe salon. I called for a stylist recommendation and the person who helped me was both accommodating and incredibly helpful. And I will be forever grateful for her recommending Jazmine! Then I stepped into Fringe, and I immediately felt welcomed and comfortable. The salon itself is both elegant and well-designed. It is designed in such a way that you and your stylist have a sperate space to discuss your hair hopes and dreams. And in that same private space make your hair color wishes become a reality. As we talked, Jazmine moved my hair around and discussed my color goals. Throughout this process, I could tell Jazmine was making a long-term plan for my color wishes. Then, she announced "I think you need some low lights". I told her she should do what she wanted to do with my color. The end result was "perfect". My quest for "perfect" hair had ended. Even my partner said, "your hair is gorgeous; how did you do that?" My BFF said, "your hair is gorgeous; I hate you". And then we laughed, and I gave her Jazmine's info. The thing I like most about Jazmine is that she listens; really listens to your vision/desire for your hair. She does not inject with her opinions about your hair's condition or what cannot be done for your hair. In a word, she makes the magic happen. Jazmine is that amazing and that kind and respectful. She is the real deal! The entire Fringe experience was perfect. No one tried to load me up with product, everyone was professional and kind and through it all, I felt respected and listened to. Treat yourself; make an appointment at Fringe so you can be "Perfect", too. read more

Chloe was such a professional and gave me the best shampoo and blow out! My hair was bouncy for days!

Laura is amazing! This was my second cut at Fringe with Laura since I moved to Seattle from NYC. Laura listened to all my hopes and aspirations for my hair and did a fantastic job. She's very kind, patient, and meticulous at her craft. Additionally, the ambiance at Fringe is 10/10. It's sleek and relaxing. There's delicious cold and hot beverages available and they use the best products--Oribe, Kerastase, etc. I'll definitely be back. Extra plus, it's right next to the Greenlake PCC and there's a super convenient underground parking lot as well as street parking. Highly recommend! read more

I am beyond happy with my blond highlights and lowlights! I had a picture and we chatted for a bit and it turned out great !

Wow- I am speechless. I have never been so obsessed with my hair leaving a salon. And I have gotten SO MANY compliments in just 1 day. Kristina cut my hair first and made it look so healthy. Morgan did wonders. I showed her the idea/inspiration I was going for and she did it!! Morgan was easy to talk to, helped answer some questions I had about my hair, and recommended a few products (which I took home and love)!! Honestly, I have never been so happy with my hair and it's thanks to Morgan. I would HIGHLY recommend her and definitely will be coming back. Just look at these before and after!! read more

I had a cut today with Laura and she did a really great job. She thinned out the back and gave me some nice layers. I felt bad asking her to cut it a couple inches shorter after she had finished, but she fixed it and it was exactly what I wanted. I'm taking a star off because it wasn't styled super well after the cut. I know waves/curls can be hard to style, so I don't blame her. I also got a headache from the shampoo she used on me and had to wash immediately when I got home. Next time I'll ask for something unscented or bring my own. I love this salon and will definitely keep coming back. read more

James did a fantastic cut on my long mane. I showed him what I was looking for with some explanation and he not only listened, he weighed in -- which I really appreciate from a stylist. I have fairly thick hair that can naturally curl. James understands the texture and weight of it and styles accordingly *chefs kiss* James is very good at his craft. Looking forward to my next visit! read more

I got a bad haircut a few weeks ago. maybe objectively, it was okay, but it wasn't what I asked for, and I lost a lot of length I had spent years growing, and the stylist didn't check in with me. I came to Fringe after checking some reviews. I reached out via text (their preferred contact) and explained my situation. they asked me to send some pictures of my hair and asked for what I wanted. so I want to start by saying how great that was. I felt so embarrassed about my hair, and they were so kind to me and non judgmental. based on what I asked for, they recommended two stylists, and I set up an appointment with James. James was amazing. again, he wasn't judgmental at all. He asked me about what I didn't like and what I wanted. I wasn't sure because I lost some confidence with my bad cut. He made some recommendations, and we decided to go with a blunt cut just below my shoulders What I really liked about my experience is that James told me what he would be doing and then talked me through it when he was doing it. He was kind and personable and made good conversation without talking my ear off. Ultimately, I just really love my haircut. It looks great, and it feels so relieving to love my hair after hating my last cut. I couldn't be happier with my experience. Thanks, Fringe and especially James! read more

Fringe Salon, how I do adore thee! I've been coming here for a while--years, actually--but I like to leave a new review every so often to assure people it hasn't changed, and that it's just as warm, friendly, and fabulous as ever. Special thank you/callout to Holly for my color and to Chloe for my cut--I cannot praise these two highly enough. The only thing that tops their customer care is their skill with hair. I always leave feeling better about myself, thanks to how wonderful my hair looks, AND about the world in general, thanks to their personalities. Can't recommend this place highly enough. JUST. GO. THERE. read more

I found Shylo and Jazmine on Yelp about 7 years ago and have been addicted ever since. I have never been disappointed with appointed with anything. Everyone there is so friendly and helpful, the products are wonderful and the whole entire experience is perfect from walking in to leaving. Even when I move out of state I will be flying back to see these ladies... read more

I came to Fringe bc I was following my hair goddess Kristina over from GJ. The salon is beautiful, centrally located on Greenlake, and the staff are so friendly and keep the vibe super friendly (great communication via text). Kristina is so skilled with her craft and I always leave feeling pretty and cares for. The cuts are modern and up to date with the current styles and she always finds a way to flatter. Kristina also is just a gem of a human and is always up for a chat (or not) she's great at picking up social cues ;) I would 1,000% recommend Fringe to my friends/family read more

I love Fringe and have been getting my hair cut by Shaitlo for so long I can't even remember. I don't know why I've never left a review before! Shaitlo recently obliged me by finally cutting off all the dark brown hair dye I'd been rocking for years to cover the gray, so I could embrace my normal hair color. It was a big change but Shaitlo handled it perfectly and months and many more haircuts later I'm still happy with my decision. read more
