BEST hair of my LIFE. Mara is a hair wizard. I never have liked my hair from any stylist before. Not to put anyone down, but she is a professional unlike any other. Mara really took her time to make sure everything was precise and to her high standards and it shows. My hair is PERFECT. Perfect cut, length, color, and BETTER than my inspiration picture. (She achieves this with perfect technique and an eye for artistry). Mara does not charge enough, for how much detail and care she puts into her work. I felt like I was taking advantage of her raw talent and expertise. I am so grateful to have met her in my lifetime and will cherish her as my hair stylist. Also, atmosphere was very relaxing. If you were wondering Mara took my black and red box dye and made it a beautiful brown blonde. Book Mara if you have something you want, she will make sure you are happy.

I thought it was a longshot but Danny saw me last minute last night for a color, cut and style. She is great with extensions and a blast to hang out with two. Can't wait to see her again!

This is a long overdue review for Mara and Michael! I've only had hair appointments with these two, but I often see other stylists in the salon working with and learning from their colleagues. To me, this is a fantastic sign of a collaborative workplace where everyone is constantly working on improving their skills. This absolutely shows in their work!
In March 2017, I made an appointment with Mara for a hair color consult and brought in pictures of some faded denim inspired streaks that I really wanted. She not only listened attentively, but also asked tons of clarification questions that made me feel like she was working *with* me and not just working *on* me. The end result was a deep blue that she assured me would fade in a way that would eventually take on the colors that I wanted initially. I LOVED having the darker blue in my hair! She also sent me home with a product from a tradeshow that gave me the flexibility of letting my hair fade or touch it up as my mood struck. Throughout the first (and only) color appointment, Mara very gently lightened and toned my hair so that it still feels incredibly healthy to this day.
I started having Michael cut my hair in September 2017, which coincided with a change to my overall care routine and switching to a curly girl wash regimen. The biggest thing he's done that speaks to his talents is working with my hair to avoid giving me what I call 'the dreaded flippy layer', which is what happens when stylists cut a short layer on top that results something that makes me look years younger than I prefer. Michael is excellent at shaping the hair I have and making my daily routine so much easier with his strategic cutting. I wish I had a better way to describe the magic he does to my hair.
For now, I can just say that 2017 has been my best year of hair and color thanks to Mara and Michael!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Thank you Alexis! It’s great for us to see when our clients follow their hair Rx as recommended. The color lasts and the style is amazing! Keep coming back - we love you

I received a very disappointing haircut and the price was way too high for the level of expertise provided. I was told the stylist had over a decade of experience. Felt like a Supercuts person cutting my hair. The results were worse. Was unevenly shaven with patches, using electric shavers. Terrible! The stylist was friendly, however.
AND THEN I was very upset that they took my phone number and have started txting me advertisements. I was told (lied to!!!) that my number was being collected for health safety alerts. Terrible!!!
I don't recommend anyone go here.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

As I have stated in a private response to you (with no reply), I am more than happy to have you come in to our salon so that I can show you Stylab Salon. There has been a mix up with the salon you visited. We keep meticulous records, and you have never been to our salon before. I’m sad to hear that you had such a horrific experience elsewhere! We would love to show you what quality service looks like. Visit us anytime.
Sincerely,

Great blowout, and so accommodating for my Tuesday afternoon much needed blowout.
Mara was awesome, engaging and my hair looked great in a very reasonable amount of time. Thanks so much, I will be back.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Janani K.South Lake Union, Seattle, WA023Mar 24, 2019
This review is long overdue. I got my hair colored for the very first time here. Mara did an excellent job. Excellent is underplaying it. She was so patient and detailed. The whole team was very friendly and helpful. My hair feels amazing, no damage whatsoever. I love how it looks as well. I wanted a teal color. Mara chose a cobalt blue which has been transforming into various beautiful blue/teal shades. I love how she was able to visualize the color transformation. Her goal was to give me a look that I could cherish for a really long time and not just for a couple of months!

Michael is the best at what he does! I won't let anyone else touch my hair. Trust in him and take his advice because he is a professional and he knows what he is talking about. The location is downtown and the salon has a funky- fresh feel. I look forward to my appointments at Stylab!

Michael color matched my hair to its original color with style and skill.
I rocked a pixie buzz for three years, bleaching and dying it all sorts of colors and shaving crazy designs all across my head. After all that style, I'm ready to grow it out and chill out a little. Michael matched my bleached ends with my natural roots (with a little warmth for dimension that I'm super happy with) and gave shape to the awkward phase that my hair was in. He even nailed the picky do's and don'ts of my preferences. It looks so good I don't feel compelled to wear a hat every single day! Feels good to be free and feminine again.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Kahealani P.Kapolei, HI42621Nov 4, 2017
Victoria made me feel amazing!! Michael played Missy Elliot, which added to the experience! She catered to my spontaneous need, but didn't let me get too wild into something I didn't want. Love my new look! They even made me feel like a model afterward too! For my haircut at hair product, my total was only $67!! Can't wait to go back!
