A salon that honestly cares about the community, staff and clients!

James Alan Salon, in Shoreline, is a neighborhood gem. I was bouncing around from salon to salon but never found the right place to get my hair cut until I started going to James Alan over a year ago. I enjoy a good hair cut, but have very low-maintenance hair and sometimes that throws stylists off. They want to put 'product' in my hair or blow it out in some wacked-out fashion. Not only does the staff at James Alan give superb hair cuts, they actually listen. I've never left feeling as if I got a cut that I didn't like or want. (Ask for Christina!). They also offer spa services--I've had a pedicure. The staff seem genuinely happy and I think that comes from how they are treated as employees. I know the owners are highly involved in the community and it seems that employees are encouraged to do the same. It feels good to support a business that tries to create a healthy work environment for their employees.
