OK so never written a review before but I'm bored at work and getting my hair done tomorrow figured I'd mess around on computer look up stuff and I find my favorite hairstylist totally trash talked on this website. I have been going to etherea for over two years and have never had anything less than excellent service from my hairstylist and all of the other people who work there. I get my hair done by mercedes and I have never had so many compliments on my hair color ever in my life and I've been coloring it for 8 years now. Not only do I love love love my hair I also love going to get it done because I get treated like a queen very time I enter their salon (complimentary foot soaks and sometimes facials are such a treat!). I'm sorry but I'm sure whoever has a bad thing to say about mercedes or the salon must have a personal grudge because myself and the several people I have referred to her love what she does.

Clients of Joe, formerly of Habitude at the Locks, will be happy to know he is doing his magic at Etherea in Belltown. If you haven't been his client before, you can expect to be listened to, cared for, and flattered by his work. Joe's application of color is skillful, his cuts are careful, and the total effect in my experience has been nothing short of fantastic. The fact that he is a sweet and considerate guy is just a bonus!

I met Erica when Charlie was in from Sheer Genius; my son and I were hair models at that time, Erica did a great job on my sons very long, very curly hair biracial hair.
I scheduled a color and cut with Erica and she is buy far the best stylist I have been to in years, she is friendly, caring, attentive and best of all I came out with the color and exact cut that I wanted. Thank you Erica you are wonderful!
Pros: Erica

A few months ago there was a promotion in our tanning salon for Mercedes and I figured I'd give her a try. I'd just moved back to Seattle and was looking for a new stylist. I thought my haircut and color were decent, although not at all worth the money. Then my roomate went to her...and came back with the same bangs. Then I saw several girls in my building with the same bangs and sure enough, they'd all gone to Mercedes. It appears that Mercedes only knows one hair cut. In addition, the bangs she gave my roomate did not fit her face at all and my roomate had begged her not to do it but Mercedes did it anyway. Also, my bangs began to have a bit of a "mullet" look that have taken months to grow out. My last time in the salon, Mercedes was overbearing and rude, insisting that I come in at a certain schedule with no regard to my lifestyle and/or budgeting needs. I was so turned off I immediately called back and cancled the appointment she'd pushed on me and found a new stylist who I LOVE at Euphorico.
Cons: rude, no personality

Right after I got my horrible haircut (by Mercedes) I had to bring my brother into get his by another Man who works there (don't remember his name) because he already had an appointment and I thought how bad can he be. Well First didn't listen to one thing that we said. Wouldn't carry on a conversation with my brother. And rushed to finish it because he had over booked himself. That was the last time I went.
Pros: By Pike Place
Cons: Everything Slash they really are the worst place I?ve been to.

I just was visiting the reviews of my favorite salon and thought I would write about my visit to Etherea. A year ago this month I was diagnosed with cancer. I have been getting by hair done at Etherea salon for several years. I told my stylist I had to go through treatment and I was worried about losing my hair. She assured me that she has worked with several clients that have gone through the same experience and let me know she would take care of my hair. She came to my home and measured my head for a wig. She bought the wig for me color it, cut it and styled it. Then came back over to my house (because I was to embarrassed to leave) to shave my hair that was falling out by the hand fulls. When she finished the wig looked exactly like my own hair. I am still battling cancer and Lisa still treats me as part of the Etherea family and comes over to see me on a regular bases to wash and style my hair. I saw the last reviews and find them to be quite silly, they are lucky to have their health, let alone their hair.
Pros: Great caring team, Very Skilled, Services
Cons: Nothing

I love Etherea Salon I wanted a great new look for Summer Perm and Color went in and saw owner Lisa Vann from a article I read about her perms. I was a blonde with all the same length hair when I went in and came out with dark brown hair with big soft curl. It was exactly what I wanted and I love it. The team was great and I enjoyed my foot soak while I had to wait for my color to be done. thank you Etherea and Lisa Vann
Pros: Lisa Vann ,Aveda Perms, Etherea Team
Cons: Parking,

I recently had my haircut at Etherea, they were having a promotion and its near my work so I gave it a try. Big Mistake. Worst haircut ever! Thats not the worst of it though, when I contacted the salon requesting a refund, all I got was resistance and arguements, and ultimately, a denial of a refund. To do so, I would have to come in and let them 'redo' their first mistake. After the confrontation put up by the owner, I would be far too uncomfortable to set foot in there again. Not to mention that I did not sign up for some sort of employee training session to maybe eventually get a decent haircut. The owner claims he is trying everything he can to resolve this issue, but it all comes down to ME having to sacrifice and be inconvienced, not Etherea. No thanks. (update - I did eventually get a refund, and an official "professional" i'm sure telling off by the owner - it was indeed a 'heavenly' experiece!)
I dealt multiple times with the owner himself, and he could learn a bit about customer service, he far eclipsed his too green to be charging money stylist in making this a bad experience.
The place is also quite dumpy, not at all what you'd expect from a Aveda Belltown Salon/Spa. Don't be fooled by the initial entrance, it goes downhill fast once you get back to the chairs.
I agree with the other negative reviewers, the high praise this place gets is surely from the staff. It was unprofessional (down to the owner), dingy and not at all what you expect from a salon experience.
Spare yourself the money down the drain and heartache and go to any of the other plentiful good salons in the area.
Pros: None
Cons: Unskilled, Unprofessional, and Dumpy
