I am a student at the Gene Juarez Academy South Campus, and I am extremely disappointed with the reviews I've been reading about all of the Gene Juarez Salons. At the Academy our instructors work very hard to make sure we are treating our guests with the best possible customer service skills we can. Come into the Academy in Federal Way, its less expensive, but takes a little bit longer. My name...

My first message. I called the GJ Academy for an hair cut appt. Got in fairly soon. It was a Saturday so parking was easy. I got there a little early, and at the time of my appt. I was told they were running a little behind and they asked if I wanted to wait. I said I didn't mind. A student hairdresser came to me about 5 minutes later and introduced herself, then asked if I wanted...

In ShortThe front desk and the urban, brighly lit salon have a fitting air of sophisticated chaos. However, there's a quick escape: the tranquil, feng shui-adapted waiting room. There, after changing into spa clothes and a luxurious robe, spa-goers are treated to an aromatic foot soak by the spa hostess. Services include the standards--facials, body-wraps, manicures, massages, mud masques--and...

I previously went to the Gene Juarez at Northgate, which is closer to where I live, and had a bad haircut experience with a newer stylist. I felt so awful about the cut, but I decided that I should just call Gene Juarez to let them know about my experience. The girl i spoke to was so great, and offered a certificate to have a re-cut or a cut done in the future. After explaining that I didnt...

There are lots of negative reveiws here for hair stylists, but I hope that some of you will give Collin at downtown a chance. He is the best hair stylist I have ever seen. He is attentive, fun, outgoing, and truly talented. I had seen other stylists at GJ before and was not very impressed so I made an appointment in 2003 and had the receptionist book a stylist randomly. I met Collin that...

There are quite a few bad reiviews on here and I can't say that I disagree with all of them but if you want a great cut then you should see Renee. She's really sweet and does a great job. I don't like the way she styles my hair but when I get home and style it myself I can see how good it is. She listens to what I want and will also tell me not to do certain things because it won't work with...

Pricey but worth it. I suggest having a consultation with your stylist before you let them cut or color your hair. There are lots of great stylists to choose from. I usually go with the advanced sytlists. This location is centrally located (you can park at Pacific Place and walk over). This salon has been an icon in Seattle for years. At one time the salon was actually located in Nordstrom.

I love going to GJ for massages, and have quit going there for any hair services. The colorists are terrible. I feel like they make everyone look the same, despite your request. Once, after having my hair colored, the colorist admitted "There is nothing natural about the color of your hair." It was a brown blob. The hair cuts have mostly been bad. I generally got a basic bob trim, and once...

I've gone here for cut and color services for over a year but had to come in a second time right after a color service to do a 'fix' a couple times...it was usually because the color didn't stay on my hair after one wash; or it looked like they didn't touched the roots at all which is the purpose of a root touchup. If it's not too light on color it's too dark. Typically I walk out of the...
