She is incredibly meticulous and detailed with her haircuts, wonderfully gentle and careful with washing, and amazing with hair color. You can tell she takes so much pride in her work and pays attention to every little detail. My hair is very difficult to cut because of years of processing, but she worked her magic. This is hands down the best haircut I've had in years! If you're looking for someone who is skilled, thoughtful, and truly cares about the quality of her work, I highly recommend Kiyoko.

She told me she could do it, but unfortunately, it became clear during the haircut that she did not know how to achieve the style. She cut my hair short and then tried to use a hairdryer and comb to make it look like the pictures, but it did not work. I showed her the reference photos again and asked if she could get help from someone else. She asked a colleague, who showed her how to cut the style, but she still seemed unsure how to do it. Eventually, the owner had to step in and finish the haircut for me. For a long-hair haircut that cost about $100 total ($85 for the haircut plus a $15 tip), I was very disappointed with the experience. At this price point, I expected the stylist to be able to achieve the hairstyle she had confirmed she could do, or to be upfront from the beginning if it was outside her expertise. Unfortunately, based on my experience, it was not worth the price or time.

The salon is super clean, bright, and has a great vibe. Everyone there is really kind and helpful. Yeah, I had to wait for an appointment and send pics beforehand, but it was 100% worth it. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a great stylist!

The haircut was rushed and I had to ask a few times for adjustments.

For over 30 years, I have consistently relied on Paul for my haircuts and color services. Even during my decade-long residency in the Northwest, I found his expertise unmatched by any local stylists. His exceptional cutting skills result in styles that maintain their shape even as my hair grows. Paul's proficiency in hair coloring is no secret, as he has been delivering impressive results for multiple generations. My teenage daughter is now among his loyal clients, having been disappointed by other stylists in the past. Paul's talents come highly recommended from me, as he continues to exceed expectations. read more

For the past 17 years, Paul has been my go-to hairstylist, and I can confidently say he is a true master of his craft. Cutting thin and fine hair requires precision and an eye for detail. Paul excels at both, consistently delivering styles that add volume without compromising the natural flow of the hair. He understands how to tailor each haircut to suit my face shape and hair texture ensuring that every visit leaves me feeling refreshed and confident. If you have are looking for someone who truly understands how to enhance your hair's natural beauty, I can't recommend him enough! read more
