Great spot for haircuts. Lily always does a fantastic cut on my hair. Entire staff and owner are always very friendly and engaging. I can set an appointment to see Lily and I hardly every have to wait. So glad I found this shop.

Pretty good hair cut place. You would need to make an appointment though. Please keep that in mind!

Everytime I get my haircut at Hair Excel I am very pleased no matter which stylist cuts my hair. Thank you Lee for your great team!

Great cut every time, quick and affordable too

My go to spot. Appreciate their professionalism. Highly recommend. Hard working and talented.

Best haircut on the island, and only $20. Ly (pronounced “Lee”) is one of the best barbers I’ve ever had.

Ive been going here for years. The owner is friendly and engaging, the stylist are courteous and quite good, and the prices are very reasonable. I recommend Hair Excel to women, men and children.

Originally, I went to Hair Excel with a haircut I wasnt fond of and we put together a plan for a style we both thought would work. It took a few months to achieve our goal, but I am delighted with the color and cut.

This used to be a great clips i believe. The owner used to work for them. Now its his own hair salon. Amazing guy, hires the best and friendliest staff at stylists. I get my haircut here thats for sure

Professional, clean and inexpensive

I had a great haircut experience with April! She’s going amazing!

I always go here to get a haircut because it always comes out how i want it every time. everyone there is very nice and are able to do a great job in a short amount of time. The stylists i go to is Ly, he is really chill and layback and gives amazing hair cuts.

Great hair for the best price Ive found yet

Awesome barber shop with a very skilled, friendly staff.

Good customer service. Friendly staff.

Always a great experience here. Never had a hair cut I didnt like.

My son got a poor haircut here which required us to come back to have it fixed, which is fine...but then the next month we visited the salon twice about half an hour before closing. The first time they had a line so they said they couldn’t take any more customers. A few days later we walk in and there’s no line and two stylists, with one in the middle of a haircut. A stylist walks up and tells me they can only do one haircut, not two. Are you kidding me? Going next door to Sophia’s Salon.

Always have a great haircut here. Ly is a perfectionist when it comes to making sure your hair is even - youll love your new cut. He is also great to chat with, so I look forward to coming in. Always reliable. I love Hair Excel!

Building is nicely done and freshly renovated, feeling welcomed right when you walk in the door.

You get what you pay for.I came in for a simple .25 inch and after the stylist went back again and again to straighten her lines, left with 2+ inches gone, and one side of my hair shorter than the other. When I came back the next day to have it corrected, the stylist cut my neck with the clippers. This is zero exaggeration.If you care about you hair, how you look, ans the ability of people to wield sharp and dangerous objects around your face and neck, then DO NOT go here.

Not a good place for colors. They pick colors without asking the client. They had a great stylist that did my hair for several years and shes no longer there. The new girl doesnt do it right she rush and do big streaks instead of small tiny streaks.

One of a kind family style barbershop founded by a former employee of a chain that left the same storefront location... very popular and affordable.

Ly is the man! Great friendly staff! Excellent value. Very clean, comfortable, & close to everything you need! Thank you!!!

Great service! Very cheap for the extrem quality hair cut that my children recieved. My son said it was the best hair cut that he ever received and my daughter loved her hair. The hairstylists were easy to talk to and they understood exactly the cut that was asked of them. Again, best service and wonderful cuts with a great price. Defiantly will come here again and again. Great hours too!!!

Great salon for kids. Very professional and friendly service. We tried many places for our child and Im so happy we found Hair Excel. They are very patient with the kids.

This is my first time writing a review about any place and honestly I would give -5 stars to this place if I could. The hairdresser got the job done but I experienced a very rude response and unpleasant attitude to my simple request about the hairstyle. I would not go back and would not recommend this place at all to anybody.

Very friendly and super excellent service. My hair style and highlights look great.

Great place to get a great haircut! Thonh does a great job.

Lee and his staff are the best! I always feel welcome to stop in and get a great haircut!

I walked in and had my hair cut and colored by Kim. Excellent results. Will go back. Thank you, Kim!

Ly cuts my hair. Super friendly and a great value.

Lee has been cutting my hair for over a decade - always comes out perfect.

Ly is great, very affordable and better quality than most places that cost twice as much

Doesnt get any better than this. First time in my life I enjoyed getting my haircut and the way it turned out.

Ly and his staff consistently deliver an excellent haircut quickly and at a reasonable price!

Love it! My son got his hair cut here and they did a great job!

This is the ONLY place I will get a haircut. It took me 25 years of bad haircuts before finding Ly and his team. I have referred many many happy customers. Thank you!

Ly is the the Ultimate hair-styling Ninja!

My children and I are regulars and have been so since day 1. Ly is fantastic!

Best place for a haircut on Mercer Island.

Li amd crew are the only place to go for a haircut
