Studio 253 Salon - Tacoma (WA)

Isabelle Thompson I recently got my hair dyed here for the first time and I absolutely adore it. Courtney is amazing at what she does and is very knowledgeable. She is very good at listening to your ideas while also giving her professional advice so you look and feel the best. Super cute and comfortable salon, I look forward to getting more done here.

Cynthia Wilson I have seen Heather for many years at a different salon and was happy to come and see her at Left Coast because she’s the best! And I’m so happy for the move because Left Coast is such a great salon. The atmosphere is very warm and relaxed, I loved the decor and the open space. Everyone there was super kind, and they truly take care of and know how to work with all hair types. Highly recommend!

Aaliyah I get my hair treated very well she’s great with natural hair treatments including if you want a great silk press and trim! Regina is very knowledgeable about maintaining healthy hair I am so glad I found her! My hair remains healthy and strong and is beautiful!!

Christine Bingham I had a galaxy color done on my hair. It turned out amazingly. Its a very welcoming salon full of great people.

susanna oh Loved consulting with the owner, Aimee! She was so kind, personable and as a customer, you feel confident in her expertise and that of her team of stylists! Diana worked on giving me a blended balayage. I have really dark, coarse hair (and lots of it!) and often really hard to lift/process. Diana had a great grasp on color theory and she painted the most beautiful ribbons (balayage) into my hair. I loved the placement and how even my hair lifted. Everybody in the salon was very personable and you felt cared for. Thanks again ladies!

Bella T As a former hairstylist, I’ve had a lot of stylists cut my hair and no one has EVER cut my hair like Jana! I grew up with pin straight hair until my 20s when the front got curly. Jana cut my hair in a way that enhanced and evened out the different textures in my hair and I’m OBSESSED! Not to mention the fact that she wasn’t afraid to do short layers and gave me the shag of my dreams (that every other stylist I talked to said wasn’t possible). The other stylists I’ve met there are also lovely and very talented. It’s one of the few places I’d consider a safe place with genuine people. I could go on about my experience, but I would recommend them to anyone looking for a salon that’s educated on alternative hair.

Thats Tacoma As a classical musician I was already sold on this place because of the name lol ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ All jokes aside though this salon is fantastic! As a person that also has mixed textured hair it’s hard to find someone, especially new, I can trust with my long hair but Patricia absolutely nailed it. She did a wonderful job and totally made me feel beautiful. Highly recommend. The salon itself is professional and in a great location. The inside is spacious and lit extremely well since there’re a ton on big windows that also makes the place feel very open.

uncursed1 Best haircut Ive had in well over 30 years. Cody did an amazing job!

Ilene Clevenger Chelsea takes her time listening to the hair color you want to achieve. She also suggests excellent color recommendations to match your desired shade. She is thorough and explains the process clearly, letting you know what to expect. She doesnt rush through the appointment, and her prices are very reasonable. Her skills are top-notch! I will definitely go back!

Angie Kennedy Was recommended here by a friend after a lifetime of experiences at various other salons left me feeling bad about my hair any time I’d get it cut. My hair is long, thick, wavy, full - always takes more time than anticipated, even after I’d learned to mention this when scheduling somewhere. Not this place! I’ve had a few different stylists cut my hair since I’ve been coming here over the years & each one has done such a great job. I’ve never once felt like my stylist was frustrated because my hair was more work & time than they’d anticipated. I’ve never left with wet hair because the stylist ran out of time after washing and cutting. I’ve never left feeling guilty about booking my next haircut because my hair takes time & work. I leave here feeling great every single time I come in. Kasey, the owner, is wonderful. I can’t imagine going elsewhere.
