Came in today and got the men's great skin facial and man am I so relaxed. I had a deep blackhead that I knew was in there and Eri extracted it no problem (she said it was a juicy one lol). Her salon is a little hidden but once you find it, it's a little oasis away from the chaos of Cap Hill. I feel so relaxed and my skin looks and feels great post facial. Music is chill and a total vibe. Also love that it's her business and all for supporting the smaller businesses in the area. read more

I got a facial with with Eri, and she was very attentive and gave me suggestions on my lifestyle to help with acne! The experience was very relaxing and my skin was left feeling rejuvenated. read more

Well, Just look at the Yelp reviews and you will know why Travis is the waxing Diva of Seattle.I live in Hawaii half the year, but when I get back the first thing is to see Travis, after all I am Donny Kamaaina on Twitter & a surfboard waxer in Hawaii, so Travis takes good care of everything and been going to him for yrs. I remember the big store where he sold everything and had many people working for him. He is such a love, kind soul that gives off a relaxing vibe the minute you walk in.....thanks Travis..... read more

Travis is awesome... for once, someone has given themselves a fun title that they deserve... Waxing Diva!! And I would even add Extraordinaire! He's quick and excellent at distraction... we were done before I knew it and I was having so much fun talking to him that I was almost sorry we were finished. The salon is beautiful, all of the spaces are comfortable and super-clean, and there's even free parking in a little lot next door. He didn't miss any hairs and used products that did not leave me gross and sticky. His half-leg is generous and I feel pretty enough to wear short skirts again... and will go back in five weeks to be ready for shorts weather. The salon's prices are totally reasonable and they were on time for our services... I appreciate that. This is also one of the few places that offers a full menu of waxing services for men. The underwear selection is fun and fancy... well beyond Victoria's Secret, and they have cute briefs for men or for chicks like me who enjoy packing once in a while. read more

Salon Dewi - Skin Care Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I have been seeing Travis for over a year now and he is a consistent, knowledgeable aesthetician. He's quite personable, great listener, good conversationist, and I've never been disappointed with any of my sessions. He also does a WONDERFUL facial and back facial! I recommend him (and Eri!) to all of my friends who look for a new 'waxer'. 10/10 service and environment! read more

Definitely a hidden gem - thank goodness for the signage outside! A little small dark place with the slightest tinge of incense smell. Eri did a wonderful job, moving quickly and helping tackle some stubborn in-grown hairs before she'd let me leave the chair. Normally I've strayed away from hard wax, but this was about as pleasant as it could be. Will return! read more

I have always had a very positive experience at Salon Dewi. The studio itself has a nice, calming vibe and Eri is absolutely the sweetest. She always does the BEST job in no time at all. Will definitely be on my list of first places to go back to once the quarantine is lifted!! read more

Eri is fantastic. Fast, friendly and has a great attitude. She's always fun to talk to and is extremely thorough. This place is kind of hard to find and slightly scary but it's actually a very cool, clean space and very relaxing. read more

This was my first wax and I felt at home at Salon Dewi! Note: I'm not the kind of person who normally gets waxes, goes to nail salons, goes to the stylist, etc and I still had a positive experience. No nonsense kind of place with amazing staff and competitive pricing. Clean and welcoming. Funky and fun vibe. Staff is friendly and helpful. Call ahead to make sure you get the info on how to find the place--it's in a cool shared workspace near Cal Anderson. I'll be back! read more

It had been several years since I had gone for any type of waxing, but all of that anxious energy floated away in the calm friendly atmosphere of this place. Travis was fantastic! I will definitely return in a couple months for repeat and new services. read more

I'm in love with Salon Dewi. Travis and Eri are fabulous. Never mediocre, always superb. read more

Salon Dewi - Fabulous, fun, professional, and a little dog too!!I love this salon for 16 years and going strong. Travis you are amazing. Loves - Skin Care Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Every once in a while I like to do a full grow out of my brows because I'm paranoid about them not growing back after all the waxing, tweezing, and general abuse I put them through for the sake of beauty. Also, I just might be a little lazy about upkeep. But the reason for waiting so long this time around is legit: I'm still shopping around to find "my place". So after reading a pile of reviews and checking websites for several salons, I used the Salon Dewi website to request an appointment. 1. If you book online, they will email vs call. Because most places call, it didn't occur to me to check my email. Sooo, check your email. =P 2. I requested Nov 3 or 4th around 11:30am. I got an email from fabulous Lee at 10:35am on the 3rd for either an 11am or noon appointment that same day. Good thing I live on the hill. Directions: It is an Official Declaration with my friends that I am not to be in charge of Directions or Math Calculations as they pertain to any group activity or discussion. So let me tell you that Salon Dewi shares the 60 Minute Photo parking lot, and you can see *that* sign a block away on 14th. Lee did not make fun of me for not understanding cardinal direction when he explained I needed to go north after making a wrong turn. Bonus points for Lee. The shop is super fabulous. A good interior designer or decorator can make magic with little space and understands the power of accessories and organizational placement. The waiting area is sumptuous and comfortable, warm and inviting without being cluttered or feeling crowded. Lee offered me tea, and Marie was with me so promptly I didn't even get to sip it. Cool, calming, collected, friendly, and professional - that's Marie. She seemed amused and unfazed by my banter: Marie: So you're here for a Brazilian? Me: Oh God, no! Um, eyebrow wax. Maybe save the cooch for another time. Quick, easy, relatively painless, and sure. Marie's demeanor made me feel completely at ease with her judgement and style for my brows. I wanted something clean, neat, professional, not too thin or super trendy and she delivered. The room was very clean and calm, no chemical smells or dust. Price was reasonable given the quality of staff, shop, and service. Like most people, even on a budget I don't mind paying a little more for high quality and stellar service. I spent just under $30 incl tip. p.s. Red Drawers is the side boutique with an amazing selection of men's undies. If I had a boyfriend I would totally buy him stuff from here! read more

My boyfriend and I went in to Salon Dewi for a facial and one hour massage. The treatments were acceptable and the ambiance, "meh." But low marks come from the unprofessional general manager and receptionist. I finished my treatments before my boyfriend so I paid the bill and tip and walked home. I asked the receptionist to inform my boyfriend that I had already left the tip, explicitly. He came out later and was told that I had, "taken care of the treatments." So he asked about the tip and was not told it was already paid, so he went to the bank to take out cash for a tip. Why she accepted the additional tip, I don't know. When he came home he mentioned he also gave cash, I called the Salon and spoke with the general manager... I didn't even want a refund or anything, but just to figure out what happened. The manager was short with me but said he would check with the receptionist and call me back. TWO DAYS latter he calls back and says, "(receptionists name) said that your boyfriend knew you already tipped and wanted to tip more." PFFFT! He would never do that! I told him politely that I don't think that was the case, but he just said, "well, this is what I know." I got frustrated and ended the call. So, the conclusion is: OK treatments (massage/facial), but the salon is run unprofessionally. I'm never going back. read more

Eri the esthetician was excellent!!!! Bobi the massage therapist left me with bruises and really focused on my glutes- I thought I was being communicative about my comfort level- but he seemed to do his own thing. I ended up just feeling awkward. At a party later that week a friend and I were randomly chatting about massages and wouldn't you know - Bobi's name came up - in that she too felt awkward and uncomfortable during the massage and that he focused alot on her chest area. I dunno, but this really struck me as not right. I wished I would have been way more vocal when in the salon. I called the salon and spoke with Travis the owner about my experience (and that my friend had a negative experience too). He thanked me for calling but told me he was surprised to hear such a compliant. I hope he took it serious. It didn't seem like he did. Based on the good reviews it sounds like alot of people like this place. But due to the unresolved situation with the massage I won't be going back to salon dewi even though the waxer did a great job. Also, I had a different friend with me -during my salon dewi visit - He got a massage from another (male) massage therapist- he said his massage experience was great. read more

Travis I love and NEED... He has been taking care of me for about 3 years now... He knows what he's doing..AND he does it well.. His spot is welcoming, clean and relaxing... I see him for waxing in all the right places, he is gentle, calm and good! read more

I had an appointment with Travis on Saturday. Hand sanitizer near the door and gloves, if needed, were available. Travis adhered to all the necessary protocols. I felt the same care and attentiveness he's always shown his customers. read more

Have been going to Salon Dewi for a year and a half and wouldn't go anywhere else!!! Absolutely love Eri and would trust her with my eyes closed (literally!!!) I typically come here for waxing and facials once in a while. Reasons for why its awesome.. 1. They make you feel comfortable. Whether its your first time waxing or you've been here, Eri engages you with a conversation for distraction as well as puts you to ease. 2. Very professional. Both Travis and Eri are very friendly as well as professional at the same time with their work. They've worked with me and my crazy work schedule numerous times. 3. Use the right products. My skin has taken the products they use for waxing as well as facial very well. In the past I've had rashes or issues with the kind of wax used at different salons. Their antioxidant facial is equally satisfying giving a very refreshing feeling to your skin. 4. Very convenient online booking. 5. Love the ambience, its very retro. I've never left Salon Dewi disappointed, always a smile! read more

1st visit to see Travis today for an underarm waxing. Well, is he the best waxing specialist? Um, YEAH! :-) As a former spa manager and therapist myself, I know uber quality work and Travis is the Bee's Knees. Get there to see him, you would be completely satisfied. I am hooked to have him as my go to aesthetician. Mahalo! Patrick :-) read more

Another lovely spa experience in Seattle! (This could be dangerous to the bank account!) Had a great experience yesterday at Salon Dewi. GREAT customer service while scheduling, arriving and checking out. Same day appointment to boot! LOVE the selection of men's undies and picked up a fun pair for my sweetie. Massage was awesome. Donovan knows what he's doing and is great for deep work. The LMP's LMP. He did a great job addressing my areas of concern in an effective, creative, deep yet gentle way. Oh and one more small thing to appreciate... a tapestry covering the ceiling in the massage room. There is nothing I hate more than looking up to boring, tacky white paneling. It may not mean anything to you, but what this tells me is that they really care about the entire experience. I just love this kind of thoughtful design. Looking forward to coming back! read more

I've been going to see TRAVASS for years now, and without a doubt, the best manscaper in the business. Except for the singing wilst waxing the goods, that......is well, it's a good thing he's so good and not auditoning for American Idol :) Of course it only adds to the charm that is Salon Dewi. If you have hair........anywhere.........go to Salon Dewi! read more

After a less-than-satisfying wax elsewhere in the area (the wax seemed really shallow, as though the hair was broken rather than actually extracted causing me a TON of discomfort and irritation, as well as quick growth), I visited Salon Dewi in a bit of a last minute rush. I could NOT be happier with Eri and my wax! I'll be going back from here on out for sure -- slightly more expensive than other wax places, but they use hard wax, which is KEY, and Eri's technique was impeccable. read more

After solicting the advise of the wonderful women on Yelp, I decided on Dewi upon Michelle's advise. First off...OW! Underarm waxes hurt SOO much. More than the Bikini I got!!! But, the woman that worked on me (I lost her card and forgot her name! ack!! I remember the face though..so I am covered...sorry everyone else), was fabulous. We talked about almost everything under the sun, including the obsession of men and waxing and how they are always talking about they should get it, it's no big deal. Right. She was great, the environment was serence and calm, and it only hurt when I was walking out. Actually I think I was waddling like a penguin. Mostly because I really REALLY couldn't put my arms down. :) read more

I had a body scrub, massage and facial at Salon Dewi for my birthday last year. It's definitely not the fanciest spa I've visited, but it's not too shabby either. I think the prices are pretty reasonable considering this is fancy-pants-Seattle. They often have packages that will save you a few bucks. When you make your appointment, make sure to have them set you up to use the Infrared Sauna. It's a little sauna just for one person with the super-bright infrared lights that will pull you out of your Seattle-winter-induced depression. I am on their mailing list now, and every once in a while, they invite me to use their sauna for free! read more

I'm gettin' hitched this spring which has caused me to do things I never thought I would. Y'know, buy a white dress, pay someone to style my hair and face, and now get a monthly facial to get my skin looking less grody. I have combination skin which tends to get dry during the winter, with frequent minor breakouts like a dang teenager. I've had one facial ever a long time ago, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Travis was a really nice, laid-back guy who walked me through what he was doing and put me at ease. The business is downstairs below the Annex Theater off 11th Ave and is cozy and inviting. It's got a hippy vibe in a good way, and there was a cute lil' doggo hanging out while I was there. I can't remember all the good stuff Travis shmeared on my face but I left feeling 100% less Saharan, and my skin showed improvement over the next week. Nothing irritated my sensitive skin, and I miiiight have fallen asleep while the masks were setting (you get all cocooned under some covers). The pricing is very reasonable, and there was no product sales pushing whatsoever. I had a good experience at Salon Dewi and will be visiting monthly going forward. read more

Travis is phenomenal! He is the first time I ever have trusted a man to wax me. I've been going to him for several years now. Even though his new location takes a little extra time to get to from where I'm going, it's worth it. (And there's free parking, which is nice.) What Travis can do for you isn't cheap, but, the man in your life will love love love it. The results are amazing. He cracks me up during my appointments with his funny antics. And, he's just a great guy. I'm constantly impressed by him as a person and as a business man. I highly recommend Travis. The Brazilian, while a little painful, is a beautiful, beautiful thing. read more

This was my first time going to Salon DEWI and I can say that I will be going back! The salon was clean and orderly and had a relaxed vibe inside. Travis was wonderful. Great conversation, great atmosphere, great experience! read more

After a late night decision to treat myself I decided to get my eyebrows waxed since they were in bad shape. I've never had them waxed before. Only thread and personally plucked by a friend. I've always been hesitant due to a fear of them being to thin and bringing out features i wanted to hide. After tons and tons of searching I found this wonderful place. Got a appointment for first thing in the morning, taking a dive into it. Travis got them all cleaned up and I'm very impressed! Little pain, very quick! read more

Salon Dewi - Before and after brow design/waxing. - Skin Care Near Me - Seattle, Washington

LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! I have been to tons of spas and I have to say Salon Dewi is the best. They are very reasonably priced and the staff is always very warm and professional. I recommend the massages, scrubs, wraps, facials, and waxing. read more

I love this place. I was a junkie at one point. I live across the street and I had every type of service they offer done to me. I especially love Kelly & Alicia. But I now have such sensitive skin that facials irritate my skin. My dermatologist recommended I stop these treatments. I also decided to get laser hair removal i/o my monthly waxing sessions. I guess I can go back just to buy my husband some sexy underwear and some hanky pankys for myself! I miss you salon Dewi. read more

I really love Salon Dewi. I've had a variety of services there, from massages to facials. The atmosphere is really nice, sort of exotic, and they seem to emphasize natural products. Customer service both at the front desk and during my service has always been good-to-exceptional, depending on who is there. There is at least one person there who has the gentlest touch I've ever had while waxing my eyebrows and lip, though I unfortunately can't remember her name. Sorry guys, you may have to experiment! I do recommend showering if at all possible after a massage. The massages are great, and your skin feels amazing afterwards, but I often have weirdly spiky hair from the oil. I've had a slightly weird experience with Bobi, and it sounds like other reviewers agree. However, I didn't get a "bad touch" from him, but he did beseech me to come back in this weirdly puppy-dog, desperate manner. That's ok, the other masseuses are not creepy and are totally amazing. The facials are a lot of pampering! Highly recommend. You'll feel wonderfully soft and refreshed from forehead to fingertips! It's hard to walk away without a new pair of panties, so be warned...It's pretty much at the top of Capitol Hill, right next to Cascina Spinasse - I recommend getting dinner there after :) read more

I have been going here for 2 years at least and Eri always does a phenomenal job and has a great personality! she's the only person I trust with ALL of my waxing needs! read more

Popped in here for an impromptu facial while on vacation in Seattle. It's on the lower level and requires a code to get in the door so you'll need to call ahead to confirm availability and to get the code. The facial was fantastic! She applied steam to open up my pores and then extracted a lot of junk. I left feeling so refreshed. Great use of time. read more

Salon Dewi - Nice relaxing ambiance. - Skin Care Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Travis and Eri are just the best at what they do. I love how they're both so welcoming and friendly, and their space is anunderground delight Travis has been my primary guy for all waxing and facial needs for ....ever since Salon Dewi was located on E Pine 10+ years ago. I wouldn't go anywhere else, because he takes care of me with skilled technique and the right products. When I want to treat myself, I make a facial appointment and get pampered. The experience is so relaxing and the results are fantastic. My sister and I have both been amazed how Travis and Eri have tackled issues our dermatologists thought were lost causes. Voila! And no post-facial breakouts like we've had at other places. Reasonable prices, comfy surroundings, professionalism and courtesy with just the right amount of pizzazz. Five-star treatments. read more

This hidden treasure of an oasis is the bomb. The atmosphere is intimate, yet not intimidating, and the staff including Travis is so down to earth and professionally really make you feel welcomed. They know their skin care to boot! I actually enjoy going for my back waxing because I enjoy the staff..it's like visiting a good friend. Plus they "always" smile when they see you:) You're not a number. Thanks Travis! read more

i've gone to salon dewi a few times over the past few years for waxing (brows, legs) and once for a pedicure that was given to me as a gift. i found them comfortable. they have kind of an aveda-esque feel (and i mean that in a good way... i like aveda). they give you free tea when you come in. they also sell a variety of hair care and beauty products as well as lingerie. although i liked them in general, i wasn't moved to write a review until after this past weekend when i had a particularly good experience. last week they sent out an email inviting everyone to sign up for a free sauna appointment this weekend. "burn 600 calories in 30 minutes!" i dunno about all that, but being in something warm and dry vs. cold and wet sounded appealing. it also has a uv light which supposedly combats seasonal affective disorder (but it's not a tanning bed. just bright light.) i can't remember ever having spent time in a sauna. on entry they hand you sandals, a bottle of water and a robe. you change and then go into a cube only big enough for one person. it resembled a portapotty covered in wood. the door announced 147 degrees. sweat poured off my body at a rate that eclipsed even burningman. afterward you take a shower with their fancy hair products and honey body wash and they give you homemade creamy lotion and more warm tea. it was great. it even made my ankle feel better. i'm not very shy about my body, so i don't require a private sauna vs. a shared one. but for women who don't feel comfortable being naked in a roomful of people, this is a relaxing way to have a private sauna experience. i don't know whether the light truly affects S.A.D., but i definitely felt happier and more calm afterward. i inquired what the normal price for the sauna is and it's $15. read more

My husband gave me a spa treatment from Salon Dewi (after doing some research on the web). Everyone loves this place; however, I did not. When I showed up for my appointment, I was unpleasantly surprised by the fact that my masseuse was a man. No one informed of this this fact, nor was I given a choice (which is common to offer). I am uncomfortable with a strange man touching my body (yeah, weird!). Additionally, he was unfriendly and silent. He did not explain what he doing while applying a wrap treatment. I would get cold rubs, then hot, and then brushed with a coarse brush, with no indication of what was coming. And he gave a terrible massage. I will never never never go back. read more

Travis and Eri are both amazing. They work quickly and make waxing as painless as possible. It's also fairly easy to get a last minute appointment in. read more

It was my very first time being waxed and Travis did a superb job.

Eri is awesome. I'd highly recommend her for a Brazilian wax. They have both soft and hard wax, but she'll give a good recommendation as which wax would be best used on specific areas. Everyone is super friendly and professional. I would say this place is tricky to find, it's on the corner of 11th between Pine and Pike, which isn't accurate in the map. The entrance is off 11th, you need to go down the stairs and all the way down the hall to the right. Yelp needs to update this. read more

Excellent place to go for a first-time waxing experience! Service was courteous, gracious, and very understanding of my liberal use of profanities during the wax session (I had a LOT of back hair lol it was warranted). We were in and out in no time at all, and I could not have been more pleased with the very thorough job she did. Convenient to anywhere on the hill with free parking, this place is hard to beat! read more
