I had a great experience at Tii Gavo. This was my first curly haircut since I've grown my hair. They were so helpful and I learned a lot about how to care for my curls. I highly recommend this salon. It's in a convenient location and it is absolutely beautiful inside! read more

You know how some stylists say, "Yeah, sure, I can cut curly hair?" Or they specialize in a certain type of curly hair, or they can handle beach waves with hot tools, but they really approach every cut the same? Tamara knows curly hair. She understands different curl textures, what cuts work for your hair type, she does dry cuts or wet cuts, and styling at the end without a ton of fuss. I have fine wavy/curly hair, and her knowledge was so helpful. I'm glad I found her. Her price is very reasonable, her salon is calm and there's plenty of parking, and she's a very pleasant person to talk to. Absolutely recommend. read more

Salon Tii Gavo - Tamara, owner and head stylist at Salon Tii Gavo, with another satisfied customer - Hair Stylists Near Me - Kent, Washington

Worst waxing, the hair was broken off and next day I can see all the stubbles along with tons of long hair left behind.

I was new to the salon.I wii not mention names.But i wanted highlights and a haircut in a bob.I wanted the blonde highlights gone they were still their afterwards.I told her i wanted brown highlights.The haircut was not in a bob and it was layered i did not want layers and it was cut uneven in the back.I was very disappointed. read more

So excited about my Deva haircut and so many new curls popped out. It is still a work in progress trying to decide how to style it! I was in the chair when Inslee made his announcement. I do feel lucky! read more

In the last year I have gotten very edgy and stylish with my hair. A year ago my hair was down below my waist and now I have a pixie cut. I have been making appointments at Salon Tii Gavo since October 2015. Kirsten is my personal stylist and I absolutely adore her. She has died my hair from dark brown, (my natural color) to blonde, cut and styled it beautifully with what I had in mind, I even had my hair permed so that I had wavy colorful curls. When you make an appointment at Salon Tii Gavo you can expect a welcoming smile upon arrival. Some one will check you in and ask if you want anything to drink, (tea, water, coffee). You will get a full shampoo and a wonderful head/neck/shoulder massage... This is something I greatly look forward to as I am a full time chef, and strain my neck looking down while at work. You can show Kirsten pictures or just describe what you are looking for. That girl is on it! As I'm sure all of Tii Gavo's staff is. She is really nice, easy to talk to all the while getting the job done quickly and accurately. If you are feeling a bit courageous, and needing a change, this is the place that I highly recommend as I have been coming for 8 months! You'll love it! read more

Tamara is wonderful and both my fiance and I won't be going to any other salon because of it. She does awesome work but also has energy that we really appreciate - she's calm and very kind. I would give Tamara 6 stars if I could. The salon is great too - comfortable and clean. read more

Update: I went in to the salon with black hair and left with a gorgeous red to blonde ombre thanks to Maria! She did an absolutely phenomenal job once again :) read more

See all

Tunithia did it again. I left the salon last night with another awesome haircut and beautiful highlights. I told her I wanted a fun change and that is what she gave me. A perfect, sassy haircut for summer fun!! read more

After years bouncing around with high maintenance and exhausting hair stylists, I was blessed to find Tamara at Salon Tii Gavo years back and have stuck with her for YEARS now. She does an amazing job with my cut and color and I recommend her to anyone that is looking for a fantastic experience. Quality in the service you get and a relaxing experience! I always get compliments on my cut and color and have NEVER had a poor experience here. Easy to find, great service and kind people. read more

I have gone to Salon Tii Gavo for years, but won't be back after today's visit. In the past, I saw Andrea for waxing and she was wonderful. She took her time, and her spa room was not only immaculate, but wonderfully relaxing. It was an experience I really enjoyed. Andrea is no longer at the salon, so I saw Tanya when I went in for a wax today. I will start by saying the entrance to the building has become littered and shabby, but that is not the salon's fault. I just noticed a big change from the moment I parked, and it seemed to set the tone for my visit. Tanya was prompt, and couldn't have been nicer. Unfortunately, her "station" appears to be a former closet by the entrance, and there is nothing spa like about it. Everything seemed a bit sad. The lamp was missing a bulb cover, her tweezers, etc were in a drawer that she had to rummage in, and the chair was wobbly. It was quite off-putting. I didn't have to pay for my service, because Tanya dripped hot wax on my favorite coat. She was very apologetic, but by then I just wanted to leave. When I got to my car, I noticed my skin appeared red, which I have never had happen before. I won't be going back to Salon Tii Gavo. read more

Tamara does a fantastic job! Ever since I started going here several years ago, she is the only person that I let cut my hair. She does amazing work, in a very clean, professional, enjoyable environment. read more

I have curly hair, went in for a Deva Cut. My hair hits my armpits, at best, and over the phone I was quoted for a medium cut. Funny how I got in the seat and it skyrocketed to a long cut (with a $50 difference). $125 later, my curly girl Deva Cut was a generic Great Clips cut on dry hair. The point of the cut is to go curl by curl, cut the hair where it lays, no tension. My stylist pulled my hair in big chunks, pulled it tight thru her fingers and cut in big swaths. Absolutely not a Deva Cut. I contacted the business and no one responded. Go figure. Do NOT waste your money here. read more

It was my first time there and everything was great. I had Maria as my stylist. This was for a men's cut and style, as I've had the same buzzed haircut for 15 years. She was able to cut into exactly what I showed her a picture of on my phone. Very friendly and great conversation. They offered me an adult beverage, and I took them up on it! I would recommend it to anybody looking for a new place. read more

I experienced my first Deva cut at Salon Tii Gavo with Tamara. She was very sweet and did an excellent job cutting and shaping my curly hair. Overall it was a great experience with really friendly staff. My only complaint is that the salon is difficult to find, it's located in an office type of building and the small sign out front doesn't stand out. I had to call and get directions. Not a big deal though! read more

I tired to get an appointment but their phone goes straight to an answering machine saying their closed, even though their open times say otherwise. So I decided to go to the salon in person, someone was already waiting at the courter. No one said hi, or that they would be with me shortly, after 10 minutes I left. read more

I went in today with my 15 year old daughter to have her hair cut before school starts. Kirsten was her stylist and was wonderful, friendly and overall awesome. She was easy for my shy girl to talk to and her hair was cut in the most adorable way! Everyone was so friendly and we will for sure be back! read more

Since Kirsten left in December, no one left knows how to do a foil. And the prices are very high for sub par work. After 15 years, I am moving on. read more

This place is absolutely wonderful! My daughter went in with a specific hair cut and color in mind. Tanya spent a LOT of time with her making sure everything was exactly what she wanted. Her hair turned out beautiful. Would highly recommend the cut/color services here - have never been disappointed! read more

2nd time going to Tanya, this time for a cut and full foil. She is a total pro! She basically had an action plan to correct a terrible foil I had from a previous salon and is exactly who I wish I had gone to in the first place. I will be back again and again! read more

Very friendly and helpful staff. Tamara gave me the best haircut I've ever had. She was very knowledgeable and gave me lots of good tips for taking care and styling my hair. Will definitely return! read more

$97 for a mani/pedi? That's not even for fake nails! Painting fingernails and toesnails on one person! And it wasn't even that good of a job. I had FOUR people get mani/pedis for my wedding for that price someplace else. Absolute rip-off. read more

Had a GREAT experience with Andrea O'Brien at Salon Tii Gavo! She was open to my needs and was extremely detailed oriented! My waxing was perfect! One happy customer!!!!! read more

Best salon I have ever been to the stylists are flexible and very friendly and also the receptionist greets you when you first come through the door I would totally recommend this place for people to go and get their hair done. read more

This review is long overdue, but better late than never! I have seen Tanya a few times now (will be calling soon for another appointment), and she is fantastic! I have visited numerous salons (ranging from Stan Parente, Gene Juarez, etcetera) in the last six years, and have never made a second visit to any of them. She has been the only stylist that I have been satisfied (beyond satisfied) with! Not only does she make you feel extremely comfortable, but she was absolutely professional, honest, and hilarious! The salon itself has a great ambience as well! Seriously, as a previous reviewer had stated, this place is a hidden gem, and Tanya definitely adds the sparkles! See you guys soon! Oh, and reasonable prices too! read more
