Just wanted to share a quick review of Studio8! I just recently had an excellent haircut, color and highlights by the lovely Two (my apologies for the spelling here - please correct me!). The salon was clean, the ladies friendly and professional. I was astonished to be able to get in immediately. Please try - they are wonderful and I will be returning! read more

Not sure what just happened to my bangs. I decided to try a new place to save some money since the website said $10 for a bang trim, though I was charged 15. I have long blunt bangs and asked her to just take a quarter inch straight off because I'm in between hair appointments. I ended up with a lot more off, and texture on one side of my bangs and not on the other. Hopefully it'll grow out quick. Not pleased. read more

I was a walk-in around 5:15pm, I waited about 10-15 min for service. I've always had a straight cut, done at home and I wanted to try something new and was nervous about it. I asked for long layers and was open to trimming off my dead ends. Ven started and finished my process with shampoo and curling at the end. And Heidi was the one who cut my hair and she did such a great job. They're both kind and did not disappoint , I left very satisfied. read more

Signage on door misleading. Chose this place because it said women's hair cuts 39.99 and had ok reviews. . Got my hair cut and was charged $80. I was shocked as this was the main reason I went here. I could have gone to my high end salon for cheaper than this. My hair cut was disappointing. I wanted a couple inches off my waist long hair to trim up the ends and ended up with the front half of my hair to my shoulders and back half maybe 3 inches longer. The front uneven and choppy and now makes it looks flat. I'm trying to let the front grow out a little before I have to cut it all to my shoulders. So much for my long hair. Went home crying. read more

We'll, it's easy to get an appointment and a men's haircut is $25. However, I've been there 3 times and each time , despite the appointment, I've been there 30 to 1.5 hours before I've been helped. 1.5 hours was because of a wedding party slowing them down. But they will take walk ins and will make appointments wait. I can I understand not wanting to turn away business but sometimes you make an appointment because you can't wait. Pretty basic haircut. So, don't have high expectations and you won't be disappointed read more

Haircut was not even. I didn't realize it until a different hairstylist showed me uneven lengths between my right and left side of my back hair. read more

My 10 year old daughter and I stumbled upon this salon while walking in downtown Issaquah. We inquired about hair coloring for her and we were instantly greeted with kindness and confirmation that they offered hair coloring! In a short time, my daughter was sitting in the hair salon chair ready for her first hair coloring experience; it did not disappoint. The stylist was not only methodical about the process but she was also kind and responsive to our questions. Our stylist is a true master of her craft, it was an inspiration to see her at work and my daughter left the salon the happiest girl on the planet! We plan on returning again and I highly recommend this salon. read more

Heidi was terrific. First time customer and they treated me right, prompt and with great service!! My new hair place!!

A story about how I gave myself alopecia by going to this salon My story begins a few months ago when I went to this salon for some blonde highlights. My scalp and hair were fried in the process. At the time I thought it's just hair and it will grow back; and now I'm going through a lot of trauma from hair loss. I didn't know anything about hair before this experience and now I know too much than I ever wanted. I went to this salon for some highlights that unfortunately were unsuccessful, I left the salon being more brunette than I entered. I then went home and used a color remover on some parts of my hair - my mistake! I called the salon the next day and Heidi graciously offered to fix it - that proved to be a fatal mistake for my hair and scalp unfortunately and I'll regret my whole life for going back there. Heidi and another colleague took care of me that day. Looking back, there were a number a mistakes they made: 1. Before starting, they told me they'll start applying the bleach closer to the roots - I said okay not knowing why; later I realized that it was because they were afraid my hair would break. They were so close to the scalp that the bleach and dye ended up drying my scalp and leaving me with redness on the scalp. 2. They then proceeded to apply very fine highlights so much so that almost all my hair was covered in bleach. No hair was spared. 3. They left me with the bleach for more than 40 mins in all; they came to check at one point and they said that I need to stay more; the second time they came to check they started applying more bleach but a minute into this operation they rushed me to wash my hair. The whole process felt uneasy. 4. At the end of it all, my scalp was hurting - I told them there's no need to blow dry the hair as I wanted to get out of there, but Heidi's colleague didn't care and she proceeded to blow dry me. I got back home with a huge headache, my scalp sore and red, my hair felt weightless, porous, and rigid (later I realized that was damaged hair), and with burns on one side of my face - yes, burns either from the bleach or the dye that was applied at my roots. I felt traumatized by the whole experience but kept saying that it's only hair and it will grow back. I started experiencing hair loss that month and in combination with the sore scalp, I decided to go to a dermatologist who told me it's chemical/trauma alopecia - I actually felt hopeful at that point as that type of alopecia would recover. The next two months I felt burns on my scalp everytime I was washing my hair. And then the huge shedding began for the following 3 months until May. That was the time when I realized that my scalp was itching so bad and still felt sore that I had to go back to the dermatologist. And that's when my nightmare began - I was diagnosed with alopecia (the real one) and scalp dermatitis. I'm going through a lot of trauma that will impact the rest of my life for something that could have been avoided if only these people would have talked to me about the risks of over bleaching or would have made better judgements that day on how and how much bleach to apply. They didn't tell me anything when I went back and their only goal was to achieve blond highlights at the risk of my scalp and health. I lost 80%of my hair since then. I am writing this review because I want to make sure that this doesn't happen again. Please do your research before choosing this salon for coloring especially if it involves bleaching. Also, this salon misleadingly uses past reviews from the previous owner. read more

Recently discovered Christy at Studio 8 hair salon and both my daughter and myself have received haircuts here recently. She was able to fit us in on short notice both times, is very friendly, and gave us both excellent haircuts at reasonable prices! The pandemic has been tough for hair stylists as demand is down, with people going longer between cuts. We were happy to give Christy our business and to spread the word about her salon. She is easy to communicate with (texting her number to arrange haircut appointments), and easy to pay with Venmo. read more

Greatest service. She did a great job on my hair . I have curly curly hair so it's not easy to cut

Best hair cut I've had in many years - thank you so much! It was my first time here and I forgot to ask my stylist's name(I know, I'm terrible!) but she was amazing. I will be back for sure! read more

My daughter and I have been going to Christy for 11 years, and have always been extremely happy with the service. Christy does an excellent job on our hair, both cuts and color treatments. The shop is always bright and clean, and Christy is just a fabulous person. I highly recommend her shop! read more

Reasonable price and good haircut. Christy knows how to handle a guys hair! After heading to a nearby chain and getting a really uneven cut, I was glad I discovered Studio 8 nearby. Been going there for 2 years. My wife is really picky and after trying a few studios eventually even she decided this was the best option for her in the area. read more

Christy is the best! She really listens to you when you describe how you want your hair cut and she makes sure to explain what she's doing as she goes. I'm 37 years old and Christy gave me the best haircut of my life, that's not an exaggeration, it looks and feels amazing! Christy is an expert and knows what she's talking about when giving advice about hair care products and hair care in general, but she definitely does not try to push product on you. I drove an hour and a half just to have Christy cut my hair, I had my mother with me and Christy even took care of her, making sure she had a cup of tea and was comfortable. You will not regret visiting Christy here! read more

Christy did a phenomenal job. My husband has received compliments from men and women at work continuously now, over a period of three days. She was also very friendly while maintaining a professional approach to her job and her client. He is definitely going back to her for his next haircut. read more

Thank you so much to Christy for helping me donate my hair to Wigs for Kids and for a terrific hairstyle!! I love it!! read more

Love Christy! She really takes her time with precision and detail. The best by far of anywhere I have been for Brazillian Blowout. Highly recommend, she really cares and is very fair. My hair is difficult, and she really took time to do exactly what I needed. read more

I found this place through Groupon. I booked last minute with Christy whom accommodated me. She did an absolute amazing job. I was nervous at first because it was my first time there and I wasn't too sure what I would be doing with my hair. I went in for a haircut and balayage however, I ended up with a haircut and foils. She was so honest with me and educated me about what might be best for my hair and complexion. I'm extremely happy with the turn out and I really appreciate Christy honesty and great work. Definitely will be coming back here again. read more

Please avoid this place if you're looking for a decent hair cut. I asked for blended layers and what I got is just terrible to even look at. My layers are so uneven and all over the place. The owner is the one who cut my hair. This is more of a barber shop than a hair salon. The owner told me that my last haircut was terrible when in fact this is the probably the worst haircut I've ever gotten. read more

Christy did an amazing job with dying, cutting and styling my hair. I was skeptical of coloring my hair because it is so light and blonde, but it turned out amazing! Would recommend! read more

I really reccomand this place if you go see Belen, one of the hairstyles . She did a great job on my ombre touch up and hair cut. I requested to have a silver/white color and she nailed it read more

My niece from California was here for vacation. On her list was getting her hair colored. Last minute we called everywhere but no appointments available. We reached Studio8 and they got her in right away and she was THRILLED about the color and the wonderful friendly accommodating staff. Thank you Studio 8! read more

I should have known something was sketchy about a salon with no reviews and nearly-constant Groupons. The Groupon has rediculous fine-print exclusions, which resulted in an upcharge that was MORE than the initial price paid for the Groupon. Management was no help, instead trying to make me feel as if I should be grateful they were even offering a Groupon. No thank you, Studio8 is clearly NOT going to be my new salon. Disappointed and mildly disgusted. read more

Today i was looking around issaquah and i saw this new barbershop and was like why not. I got my haircut and it was absolutely amazing! I also got a free hot towel and head massage and that was incredible. This place is definitely a recommendation for people that need a haircut and is in the issaquah area. Also my barbers name was My and she did awesome. read more

Love this place . The stylists actually listen and care how you feel about your hair at this location. They always give me what I want as a haircut and color and I adore it . read more

Christy is a wonderful hair stylist. She was friendly, patient, and asked many questions. She really took her time to do a great job. I have very curly multi-racial hair and she cut amazing bangs! I would recommend this hair salon! read more

I love getting haircuts and blowouts from Christy. She does a consistently awesome job and the place is super hygienic with lots of precautions taken. I felt safe the whole time. read more

Best Hair Salon I used to go to Gene Juarez for years. They did a good job, but the prices were starting to get the better of me. Christy at Studio8 is a total pro and has given me the best hair cuts I have ever had. It's hard to try new places, but trust me, you will love her cutting your hair. She explains everything she is going to do before she does it, to make sure it's what you want. She uses great products, and stays current with cuts, styles and treatments AND her prices are so reasonable! This place is a gem and I highly recommend!! read more

I went to see Christy this last Monday. I showed her a picture of what I wanted and she managed to make it even cuter! She mixed the perfect color and she made me feel confident with my short cut for a wedding coming up! I will definitely be back and highly recommend her services! She also squeezed in my dad for a quick trim! read more

Walked in last week to have Son cut my hair... he did a fantastic job! I love that they are open until 7... and thought it was great that Son needed minimal information to deliver what I wanted. I'll be back! read more

I was a walk in (My dry cleaner's is next door and I happen to have some time to kill), and they graciously took me in for a quick haircut. Christine was so nice and did a very good job on my long hair! I was impressed from start to finish and will definitely be going back! read more

Christy did a wonderful job with my foil! She listened to what I wanted and added the smart bond treatment to my hair because I have been struggling with breakage and other issues. She is fairly priced with high end salon experience. I would highly recommend Christy for her services. read more

Went in fir a quick trim right before closing. Cindy was so friendly and knew exactly what I wanted. Very cute little place, very nice people!! read more

Christy is so kind and takes such good care of my hair! Her prices are reasonable and she highlights my hair in such a way that it can grow out for months without leaving a harsh line. Highly recommend! read more

My sister and I had a great experience here. I brought her here for her birthday present and she went from having hair past her shoulders to a very prominate inverted bob. Sun did great! My sisters hair is very thick and course and Sun made sure to cut her hair dry (big tip for those with curly/thick hair). They stayed late for us to ensure the best service. On my hair Christine was my stylist and she did awesome. I got highlights and because my hair was damaged (obviously) by the bleach she threw in a free conditioning treatment. Also because I had let my roots grow so much and had only bought the groupon for partial highlights she added a couple highlight packs for free! Great customer service. The staff is friendly and super funny. Great sense of humors. They are good at understanding exactly what you want. I would recommend ANYONE to this place. Especially if you are getting a punk/scene/emo or just plain crazy hairstyle... Sun is your man! read more

I got my hair done by Christy for the first time, she's truly a hair artist. I got balayage, a beautiful haircut, and Brazilian blowout. I'm very happy with the results. Highly recommended!! read more

Christine, I just wanted to thank you for always doing such a great job cutting my hair. If I could give you 6 stars I would. See you soon. :) read more
