Reviews of The Chair Salon
This place is my new go-to salon. Kate is amazing! She did a complete overhaul of my hairstyle (from long to short with bangs), and I absolutely love it! She took time to discuss my vision, walked me through each step of the cut/styling process, recommended products and gave upkeep tips (since I’ve never had bangs before!) - and she definitely delivered on the style!
BEST cut I’ve had in years!! Danielle was amazing! All the staff were super sweet and charming the entire time. Danielle looked at the pictures on my phone of the style I wanted and did an AMAZING job replicating the look (even asking if I wanted extra parts trimmed and further perfected).
She neutrally gave me advice on what my hair could use more of in the future (in terms of maintenance and improved texture) and asked about the things I was using/how I was wearing it. I’ve never had a stylist who really cared about what I was looking for or who took the time to help perfect the look and keep it healthy until now.
I will absolutely be making this place my regular hair salon now. Thank you!
This is an adorable salon housed in a classic South Minneapolis building. It is cozy and a little fancy. Michelle is my stylist. She's fantastic. She's so humble but so talented. She listens to you, and gives you a really good version of what you want. My hair is curly in the front, wavy everywhere else and she handles it better than most other stylists. She also cut my kids hair, 6 years old, woth no issue. It's not cheap, but not super expensive either. I'd say, worth it.
Terese is an excellent stylist and worth absolutely every penny. I had been bouncing between stylists, and not one of them told me how dried out my hair was. I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't hold a style. I thought it was just too long, but Terese explained that it was fried and proceeded to chop of inches, which desperately needed to happen. What's funny is my hair looks way thicker and fuller than it did before.
If you're struggling with your hair, do yourself a favor and just book an appointment with Terese.
Super friendly, cute little place. My stylist, Michele,.was just great. She was spotted on with the style I was going for. Thank You!
Terese is amazing and I wouldn’t want anyone else to cut my hair. Good atmosphere in the salon, good selection of products for sale.
The place is quaint. The washing chair was extremely comfortable. Brigitte was helpful consulting about my cut. I like my cut.
Got a super cute haircut this weekend with Dani! I came in needing a change, and she talked through my ideas and photos and totally delivered. The environment felt super safe, too - everyone is wearing masks and staff are taking precautions to wipe down things that guests use, like the shampoo chairs/bowls. Love the relaxed but professional energy at The Chair. Keep up the great work, all!
First visit to this salon and loved it! Dani listened well to what I wanted and delivered. Great conversation too! Fought my way through traffic from Bloomington, but so worth the drive :-) Thank you Dani!
I was long overdue for a haircut AND in the process of growing out my natural hair color. Michele gave me a great new cut that softens the "line" between the two colors, and it just looks so much better overall! Cute cut + supporting local business = win
This place made me feel relaxed and at home from the moment I walked in. Teresa made my hair feel and look amazing! Will be back to this adorable salon soon.
Such a fun and chill atmosphere. Michele's been doing a great job on my hair for years!
Paula did an amazing job! The cut and color were fantastic and I definitely will be going back.
I'm so happy with my visit to The Chair! Dani was my stylist and she did an incredible job interpreting my vague and somewhat clueless description of the color I was hoping for. She listened, explained her plan, then did SUCH a good job with the color! I've been to many different stylists and none have even come close to the success she had with her first try. Highly recommend her and this salon!
I can not write enough positive things about my first experience here. Michele helped me achieve a beautiful color and haircut to help clean up my damaged hair. She was so kind and fun to chat with! The vibe of the salon is soooo cute! The owners are so kind and they have great musical tastes. I will definitely be back!!
Been going to The Chair for several years now. The salon is great and Brigitte is exceptional. My daughters and I have done some big changes with cuts, colors, etc., and we always like our new looks. Highly recommend!
A great experience with stylist, great experience with salon staff. On time, stylist Paula took all my thoughts into account, did not recommend anything in addition to good service at this time.
Everyone there is very professional and friendly! They have done a great job keeping everyone safe during this pandemic and can be so accommodating! When I needed a bang trim before a trip and had to bring my son unexpectedly, Danielle graciously cut my bangs outside on the sidewalk! Since they have a small space and I couldn’t bring my son in due to the pandemic, they went above and beyond to meet my needs. I was so very grateful. :)
I drive all the way from St. Paul to get my hair cut.
Kate was fantastic! I needed a post-pandemic haircut and color. My balayage looks so natural. Kate listened to what I wanted to do with my hair and made appropriate suggestions about the products but without pushing it too much on me. She was fast in her work which saved my time. I would definitely be a regular here. The salon also has a cozy vibe which was a plus.
Simply the best hair salon I've ever been to! The knowledge, the care, the service are unbeatable. Michael Frear has set up a specialty hair salon - everyone is cared for! Michael is expert at color, styling, and cutting - you will never go anywhere else once you've experienced The Chair!
I booked an appointment at The Chair after several disappointing visits to another well known salon. My first impression was the front desk lady that took my call. I explained what I was looking for and briefly that I’d just gotten my hair done at another salon. She said they’d love to work worth me but also encouraged me to offer feedback to my previous stylist. Right away this told me that this salon isn’t just about money they actually care about their clients. I took her advice and still decided to book an appointment with Danielle. After exploring a couple of options together I gave her a pretty tall order with a big change and a tricky color ask and she totally nailed it. She wasn’t afraid to be bold and that’s hard to find!
Excited to have found my salon match :)
A great personal experience, check-ins every 5-10 minutes during haircut to make sure I liked it. Best cut and conversations I’ve had in a while!
Great cut! Danielle listened to what I wanted, gave her opinion when I asked for it, and explained when I had questions about the techniques she used versus previous stylists I’ve had. She was also laid back and easy to chat to. I finally feel like I’ve gotten a cut that actually works for me and that I’ve been going for all this time. I will certainly return to Danielle, which is saying something, as I’ve almost never specifically gone back to the same stylist before.
Was checked in fast and seen right away. The salon is cute and very clean. Parking was not an issue. Patty cut and styled my hair and I loved it. They sell Aveda products and the receptionists are professional and sweet. Prices are competitive so nothing came as a shock when I paid up. $60 for a women's cut before tip. That's a little less than I was paying before switching salons, and far less than I have paid other stylists in the Uptown area. The going rate is around $90 for a women's cut. Overall, I recommend this salon for trendy and professional styles.
I've been seeing Kate for several years at The Chair and she is phenomenal - very personable, easy to talk to & really creative when it comes to mixing fun hair colors. She's really good with my slightly textured wavy/curly hair. The whole team is helpful and answers any questions I have. And they offer you something to drink which is nice for a treat-yourself-self care day! Even after moving to the other side of town, I still prefer coming here!
I saw Bridget she was amazing I have never liked my hair more. I've gone to a lot of salons and for one reason or another I'm never comfortable. This was a great experience I will definitely be coming back regularly.
Wow! Okay...so I am not one of those "need a haircut" people...but I really did need one. :) It was SO great to go see my stylist Kate and it felt so good to get one of her amazing cut/styles after being away for so long (I was already overdue for one when covid closures hit). I always feel so welcomed and cared for, and now there are special safety measures in place at the salon, so very thoughtful for the well-being of all involved. So very glad to see The Chair holding down their beautiful corner in Minneapolis!
The Chair is delightful! I’ve been going there since my stylist moved there several years ago now. It’s classy and low drama. The vibe is chill and professional.
Paula has been cutting and coloring my hair for years. She does a fantastic job. She knows just how to subtly change it for winter or summer, and keep me professional looking. Her prices are fair, especially for the quality.
It’s clear that you’re serious about keeping clients and staff safe, which I appreciate so much! I liked that the communication on the new safety requirements was clear and easy to follow, and I found it easy to book my appointment online. Danielle was welcoming, easy to talk to and she gave me a great hair cut - I’m so happy to have my volume back!
Warm environment and overall really great aesthetics! I'm overjoyed with how well my hair turned out. Michele was my stylist - she did a phenomenal job on my cut/foil/style and I'm so glad I was able to get my hair done by such an amazing woman at a fantastic salon!
The Chair has a very laid back atmosphere from beginning to end. No stress at all - just calm vibes. Paula was a great listener for what I wanted and had the talent to execute it. I couldn't be more satisfied with a salon.
Kate Ness is my hairdresser, and she always does a great job on my hair. I have curly hair, and most hairdressers try to make it straight which almost never works. Kate goes with the flow--or the curl. She is also a terrific colorist. (If only she could do plastic surgery!) The atmosphere in The Chair is very relaxed and not rushed, which I like. And the chairs are very comfortable--haha--as they should be. The decor is cute, kind of kitschy, which I find very inviting. I recommend it to all my friends.
Hannah is a magician with hair. She listens to what you’re thinking and then knows how best to make it happen. Her suggestions for cut and color are always spot on and I always leave happy. The staff are kind and fun, and it’s a positive place to spend time. I have loved The Chair for years and have literally never gone to anyone else since I met Hannah. Support The Chair!
I am always nervous when I get my hair done due to the fact that nobody can ever understand what I am looking for with a new haircut not even when I bring in pictures. Anyways, Joey colored, cut and styled my hair and I couldn’t have been happier! He knew exactly what I wanted and watching him he looked dedicated to fulfilling my wishes for my hair. I felt comfortable with him, he was professional, friendly and experienced. I definitely recommend him and this salon. Will definitely be going back!
Such a gem! This salon is awesome, been coming here for over a year now and have seen several of the stylists. I usually come in for layers and a trim and the staff have all been so welcoming and open to my preferences. As soon as you walk in, they offer you a glass of beer, wine, or coffee while you wait. Then you head upstairs for a head massage and wash prior to the cut/dye. The salon is so adorable, I believe their owner Michael was the designer. There is the cutest light fixture in the room where you get your hair washed. Also go to the bathroom, very interesting! This time I saw Michelle. She is awesome, such a stand-up gal, very down to earth. Highly highly recommend her and this salon. Feels like family, no snobbishness here~
I have been coming to The Chair for a couple years now and I absolutely adore Michelle! She is always open to my constant need to change up my hair. Very professional. They have always taken COVID seriously and I appreciate that. Although I live all the way in St. Paul, I will continue to come to this amazing establishment!
I love, love, love the cozy-old-home vibe; it creates a relaxed, comfortable, welcoming atmosphere. In previous visits, the hot tea was such a pleasure, and I can't wait until it's safe to serve again. The staff is incredibly nice. And of course, the haircut is always top-notch, despite my vague, clueless requests.
Michele was great, it was my first time seeing her.
Amazing friendly staff, inviting cozy setting, and beyond talented stylists...I cannot say enough kind words about The Chair. I love getting my haircut there! For a men’s cut, highly recommend Kate!!!
Paula does a fantastic job with my very straight hair. The salon is warm and welcoming, and the online scheduling and reminders make things easy.
Started coming here about two years ago and absolutely love it! All of the staff is friendly, knowledgeable and it’s a pretty cool environment. I see Michele every time I go and she is amazing! Knows exactly what she’s doing and always fun to talk to. 10/10 would recommend for anyone to come to The Chair!
I have tried many salons, who really tried to help me grow my hair back after losing it due to my body recovering from illness. The only salon that provided me the expertise to make this happen was the Chair.
Michael and staff are caring, talented, and well-trained. It seems that their client base schedule on an on-going basis.
I would highly recommend!
I've been going to The Chair for many years. Everyone is so friendly and professional. I always get a great haircut and color. They are very diligent in their cleaning and screening processes. Highly recommend .
My stylist, Danielle, is wonderful! She always listens carefully to what I want my cut to look like, and the result has never been anything but excellent. I can't recommend her and the salon enough!
My professional artist, Kate, knew what to do with my hair, gave an amazing head massage, and was fun to talk with for the appointment. Thank you Kate!
I’ve been going to The Chair for haircuts for probably 10 years now. I love the facility (the owners upcycle antiques all around the building), love that they use Aveda products, and all of the stylists listen and are great at their art.
I've been going to Hannah at The Chair for my hair trims/cuts for probably five years or so now. Not only is she lovely, welcoming, and talented, but all of the staff who work the front desk are as well. I called to potentially cancel my hair trim tonight, due to a headache, but I'd have to wait another month for Hannah's next appointment. I couldn't wait. The best part? I kept my appointment for tonight, and the woman on the phone said "don't worry, we'll get you a nice tea, or a glass of wine, and we'll get you all taken care of." I really like this place -- definitely recommend it!
I have been salon hopping for about 8 years now since I moved to the cities. Never had a great enough experience to want to return to any of them. So happy I finally found this place! Joey gave me exactly what I wanted AND what I didn’t even know I wanted! Best color and cut. It was a big change and I couldn’t be happier! I will be back for sure! Everyone is so nice and lovely environment 👍
Hands down one of the best salons I've ever been to! Atmosphere is calm and everyone is so friendly. I love the funky decor and classic old mpls building! So impressed with Danielle! I've gotten over 100 compliments already! Book an appt here.. they will take care of you!
Oh my goodness, I had such an amazing experience! My hair is shiny, healthy, and absolutely fabulous! I am going to tell everyone that I got pampered at the chair. I have found my regular salon at last! Love, love, love!!!
Been going to the Chair for about two years now! I love it. Cool atmosphere, friendly reception. I've seen 3 different stylists and they've all done an excellent job! They also have online booking for haircuts which is awesome!
Love this place, and my hair dresser Kate is awesome. Never had a consistent salon until I met her! Super down-to-Earth staff, and some of the nicest greeters/welcome staff I've come across.
Super nice staff and I love my cut. Curly hair wins like this are treasured. I found my neighborhood salon.
I took a chance on the salon after observing several of my close acquaintances, who frequented The Chair, had amazing magazine worthy haircuts. The Chair is a beautiful salon, with skilled hairdressers, and a friendly staff. You will NOT be disappointed.
Super friendly and knowledgeable staff with slightly cheaper prices than other salons in Minneapolis. Their online services and attentiveness to the phone and Covid regulations. They also didn't try to pressure me into buying their products.
My favorite salon. I've been going for over a year. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They offer wine, beer, coffee, and tea and they use all Aveda products on hair/face. The Chair's eclectic and Bohemian decor is a pleasant aesthetic environment too. Love it.
I love my hair cut, and the salon is laid back and staff was amazing
Everything at the Chair was set up to maximize safety and health. Individual stations scattered around the building, every stylist is masked, and my (desperately needed but admittedly non-essential) haircut turned out exactly as I requested. Will definitely return for future service!
I've gone to The Chair for years now, and I look forward to going so much. Frankly, I feel like Michael and Tim are almost family. It's one of the few salons I've ever visited where I can get a great cut (and color) at a very reasonable price but without the attitude. And if I've had one of those days at work, I know a friendly glass of wine is waiting at The Chair.
The space feels warm and inviting, and Michele is phenomenal both as a stylist and a human :) I will be back and I highly recommend her to anyone!
Staff was great - Brigitte was my stylist - I highly recommend this place. I have thicker, curly hair and she gave me a great cut to wear it naturally. Best cut I've had in years, hands down.
Great people. Been going since they opened with a short hiatus. Consistent perfect haircuts! It's just such a pleasant experience and Michael is always good for interesting stories! Thank you, Ian
Great owner experience and Joey is excellent with color. I've been looking for a new salon since my person moved her operations too far north for me to want to travel. Glad to find one close. Atmosphere very charming as it should be in Uptown, but the treatment is definitely luxurious as it should also be.
Literally everything. I love that the receptionist is a receptionist or sometimes the owners. I love the space, I love that it smells like Aveda in there, I love the decorations, I love how friendly everyone is. I love that I can walk in to my stylist and say, "Cut my hair as short as you can without my face looking fat." and she says YOU GOT IT!
This place is the place of Dreams. Great stylists, great atmosphere, they make you feel like a noble while you're there. Relatively expensive haircuts, but the wash/rinse they do feels amazing, and I know at least Joey offers free beard and neck trims between haircuts!
I cashed in on the 50% off for new customers the first time, planning to go back to my former salon afterward but Kristin did such a great job I've been going to her for just over six months now and have been consistently pleased with the results. Not only that, but she always remembers exactly what to do. Would absolutely recommend them, and be sure to ask for her!
The Chair staff are professional and friendly. I always get good cuts there. To boot, it's at a convenient location in south Minneapolis. I've been going there for 16 years and would recommend The Chair to anyone!
My baby sister had been going to Heidi for years, and when I needed a cut I decided to go with Heidi. Best hair decision I've ever made. She is brilliant, kind, professional, and since I've been going to her for three years now she knows exactly what I love. I have long pin straight hair, I get layers and Heidi cuts it in a way that gives it movement even when I've done nothing to it (so I don't have to curl it.) My baby sis has a bob, and our older sister a Heidi fan also gets layers. You do need to book Heidi a week in advance, and I believe she's 5 or 10 bucks more, but she's worth it.
Consistently excellent haircuts in a pleasantly eclectic setting with complementary shoulder massage and free coffee. Jesse has been very attentive and helped me to get my hair the look that I needed.
My son and I have been coming here for almost a year. I use to go to The Men's Spa but because of a scheduling problem I needed to go somewhere else. Once I came here I will never go back. I have Joey cut and color my hair. He does a great job making me look good. Highly recommended
It was my first time at the salon and I was very impressed. It’s a small salon with a nice cozy feel. Very clean and the Aveda products are fantastic. Highly recommend!
I have been going to the Chair for a few years and have never left anything but happy. Kate is extremely talented and I’m grateful to have her. The rest of the staff is also kind and friendly and the creative decor inspires.
Loved my haircut and highlights by Michele! She was also so fun to talk to!
Danielle was great - first time coming here for a haircut and I’ll definitely be back. Great value for money and my hair looks and feels fab! Thanks :)
Great place! If you want a great men’s cut book with Joey! Also, had an interaction with salon owner (or perhaps manager) and it was quite positive. I would recommend this salon to anyone!!
Really calm atmosphere and it smells good. They offer beverages before service. Michelle was awesome!! Definitely going back for my next haircut
Michelle was fantastic and did exactly what I imagined. The salon was beautiful, offered me a variety of things to drink and very relaxing.on top of it, cost was not what I'd expect for a city salon, great deal! I'd highly recommend
I love The Chair. I’ve always felt comfortable there and the stylists I’ve been to have been professional and knowledgeable. I always leave there feeling great!
Micheal did an amazing job. He went above and beyond to make my hair look great. Enjoyed my time in HIS CHAIR! 😊 …
Best Salon I've ever been too! The staff is so friendly and my hair looks FANTASTIC. Parking is easy too. I can't wait to go back!!!
The place was a little crowded, but by coronavirus standards only. It was professional and courteous and they got me on my way quickly. Haircut is a good one.
Really cool looking space.
People were great with my 11yr old daughter Eleanor.
From my first walk in the door to checking out, the whole experience was outstanding. Wonderful ambiance, welcoming staff , topped off with a perfect haircut thanks to Joey !!! I have found my home for hair !
I have been going to Michele for almost three years now! Great atmosphere, great people. and amazing results. I'll be going here as long as I'm in Minneapolis.
I am so happy, i went to this place for the first time, I made an appointment with Cassandra and she did the best hair cut i have ever had since i moved to the US
I love it!!!!
She is awesome
Thank you Cassandra!!!!!!!
The staff is always warm and friendly. Perks like coffee, tea, etc are a definite plus. And there’s no better stylist than Joey.
I won't trust anyone else with my hair! Always friendly and kind. They also have great safety practices in place for COVID-19!
Great neighborhood salon in Minneapolis. Excellent service and they sell Aveda products. Has off street parking behind salon. ❤
Michelle saved my hair from a botched undercut. She is professional, creative and charismatic. I will never go anywhere else again!
Dani did my brows and she was WONDERFUL. Super friendly and gentle, and they look great!
Wonderful hair salon! Everyone is so friendly. The space is unique. I see Hannah and she is amazing!
Best place for a haircut with personal care. Friendly staff and environment gives you an at home experience. Upscale service at a reasonable cost. LGBTQ friendly place.
Had an excellent cut by Michelle and was super pleased that the salon is careful about the virus. Cost of cut was very reasonable.
Joey always gives me the crazy color that my hair needs at that moment, while talking me down from too crazy of colors. Great at updos (My wedding pics look amahzing) and hair cuts too!!
Great haircut and nice people
Joey is incredibly talented. I’m so happy with the cut, will definitely be back, and have already made a couple referrals
New stylist with a lot of experience; on time; listened; friendly; great cut.
Felt very welcomed as a new customer and I loved my haircut!
Danielle is so kind and always knows exactly what I want even when I showed her a cartoon Inspo pic
Happy to follow Teresa C. to this salon. Friendly staff, convenient location.
Paula did a great job with my cut and highlights. It's exactly what I wanted, love it!
Only this salon touches my hair! Very welcoming, everybody is friendly. No doubt it’s rated number one!
I’ve been going here for over a year now and there’s always a friendly welcome and I’m always leaving feeling beautiful. Paula does an amazing job!
The Chair staff are always kind, ready to help, and curate a clean, relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere for every visit!
Cute spot, friendly staff.. I get my haircut from Paula and she’s awesome!! Highly recommend
Love getting my hair done here. Kate always does a fantastic job!
Michele is very talented, accommodating, and conscientious. I’m always very pleased with her work and chairside manner.
Great hospitality! I'm always comfortable when I go and my hair needs are always taken care of
For haircuts - Hannah is amazing! Kate is great! Paula is awesome!
Cute salon and great service! I am so happy with my cut and color!!
Joey did such an amazing job on my hair, I absolutely love it and plan on going back to him
My wife was treated with respect and got everything she wanted to do in one appointment.
The best.
Friendly, calm atmosphere. Professional, high quality services.
Danielle is friendly and accommodating-always does a great job!
Never in my whole, long life have I found a salon where 5 of the stylists can do my hair well!
Easy location and nice friendly staff. I felt comfortable right away.
Great salon! Such a cute space with talented hair stylists.
Love the Chair, just wish I had more hair for Michael to work with!
Paula is the best!
Heidi is AMAZING! I wouldn't get my hair cut anywhere else!
Nice spot for a cut. Not pretentious. Not expensive. Well done. Professional. Responsive
Michelle was amazing! Found my Minneapolis salon. :)
Always a fun experience - everyone is friendly and welcoming! The BEST!
Really friendly, efficient stylist. Good work.
My daughter loved it! she can hardly wait for her next visit.
Great staff, quality styling and cool vibe. Highly recommend
So accommodating here. They even have refreshments (likely not during Covid)
Always welcoming, locally owned, excellent service.
These stylists really listen. Which gives them the edge, to give you what you want.
I love this place. Briggitte and Kate are awesome.
I miss this place, great haircuts with Joey!
Always walked out of there looking great!
The staff has prepared for re-opening very thoroughly.
Kate cuts hair like nobody else.

Bridgett remembers details of my hair & makes great suggestions. She also gives me extra time for my longer hair & I always love the way it looks.
