I've tried so many salons in Seattle, and while I've received decent haircuts at many, paying $60 or more only seems worth it if the haircut is awesome and you really connect with a specific stylist. I haven't had consistent luck on that front so I decided to try a new place and used CitySearch's Best of Seattle list to look for recommendations. Mode came up as the #1 recommendation, so I gave it a try, and I thought it was a great little place.
The salon is located near Whole Foods in Ravenna. It's a small salon but is also very approachable and down to earth. Paul was my hair stylist, and I thought he did an excellent job: listened well to what I wanted, discussed various options, took his time to cut (~ an hour), was very precise, and also fun to talk to. Best of all... the cut was only $30! I couldn't believe it!
First time clients can use a 25% off coupon found on CitySearch. For the money, this place can't be beat!
