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 couldnt be more satisfied with a salon.
Danielle is so kind and always knows exactly what I want even when I showed her a cartoon Inspo pic
My stylist was really awesome. Gave great tips and knew what she was doing. She was interactive the whole time and showed a lot of patience with my kids being there. Overall great experience.
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.
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!
Great neighborhood salon in Minneapolis. Excellent service and they sell Aveda products. Has off street parking behind salon. ❤
I saw Bridget she was amazing I have never liked my hair more. Ive gone to a lot of salons and for one reason or another Im never comfortable. This was a great experience I will definitely be coming back regularly.
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.
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.
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!
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.
Happy to follow Teresa C. to this salon. Friendly staff, convenient location.
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!
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!
New stylist with a lot of experience; on time; listened; friendly; great cut.
Nice spot for a cut. Not pretentious. Not expensive. Well done. Professional. Responsive
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!!!
Dani did my brows and she was WONDERFUL. Super friendly and gentle, and they look great!
The Chair staff are professional and friendly. I always get good cuts there. To boot, its at a convenient location in south Minneapolis. Ive been going there for 16 years and would recommend The Chair to anyone!
Ive 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 .
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!
Micheal did an amazing job. He went above and beyond to make my hair look great. Enjoyed my time in HIS CHAIR! 😊
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!
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 :)
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 cant wait until its safe to serve again. The staff is incredibly nice. And of course, the haircut is always top-notch, despite my vague, clueless requests.
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.
Always a fun experience - everyone is friendly and welcoming! The BEST!
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 womens cut before tip. Thats 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 womens cut. Overall, I recommend this salon for trendy and professional styles.
Always walked out of there looking great!
My wife was treated with respect and got everything she wanted to do in one appointment.
Complete professionalism and a family feel at the same time. Top quality hair stylists.
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!!!
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.
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!
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 didnt try to pressure me into buying their products.
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.
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!
Terese is the best ever!
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.
Really friendly, efficient stylist. Good work.
Joey is incredibly talented. I’m so happy with the cut, will definitely be back, and have already made a couple referrals
Love getting my hair done here. Kate always does a fantastic job!
Great hospitality! Im always comfortable when I go and my hair needs are always taken care of
Great people. Been going since they opened with a short hiatus. Consistent perfect haircuts! Its just such a pleasant experience and Michael is always good for interesting stories! Thank you, Ian
Perfect personalized service! Listened to needS & was very accommodating!
Danielle is friendly and accommodating-always does a great job!
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 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!
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!
Joey did such an amazing job on my hair, I absolutely love it and plan on going back to him
So accommodating here. They even have refreshments (likely not during Covid)
Michele is very talented, accommodating, and conscientious. I’m always very pleased with her work and chairside manner.
Fast and clean service.
Had an excellent cut by Michelle and was super pleased that the salon is careful about the virus. Cost of cut was very reasonable.
I wont trust anyone else with my hair! Always friendly and kind. They also have great safety practices in place for COVID-19!
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 :)
Hands down one of the best salons Ive 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! Ive gotten over 100 compliments already! Book an appt here.. they will take care of you!
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!
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 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 👍
I have been going to Michele for almost three years now! Great atmosphere, great people. and amazing results. Ill be going here as long as Im in Minneapolis.
Cute salon and great service! I am so happy with my cut and color!!
Warm environment and overall really great aesthetics! Im overjoyed with how well my hair turned out. Michele was my stylist - she did a phenomenal job on my cut/foil/style and Im so glad I was able to get my hair done by such an amazing woman at a fantastic salon!
Always welcoming, locally owned, excellent service.
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 cant recommend her and the salon enough!
Cute spot, friendly staff.. I get my haircut from Paula and she’s awesome!! 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.
My favorite salon. Ive 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 Chairs eclectic and Bohemian decor is a pleasant aesthetic environment too. Love it.
Paula did a great job with my cut and highlights. Its exactly what I wanted, love it!
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!!
Only this salon touches my hair! Very welcoming, everybody is friendly. No doubt it’s rated number one!
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 Ive come across.
Been going to the Chair for about two years now! I love it. Cool atmosphere, friendly reception. Ive seen 3 different stylists and theyve all done an excellent job! They also have online booking for haircuts which is awesome!
The staff is always warm and friendly. Perks like coffee, tea, etc are a definite plus. And there’s no better stylist than Joey.
The staff has prepared for re-opening very thoroughly.
Great staff, quality styling and cool vibe. Highly recommend
Great owner experience and Joey is excellent with color. Ive 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.
Really calm atmosphere and it smells good. They offer beverages before service. Michelle was awesome!! Definitely going back for my next haircut
Michelle was amazing! Found my Minneapolis salon. :)
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 Ive ever made. She is brilliant, kind, professional, and since Ive 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 Ive done nothing to it (so I dont 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 shes 5 or 10 bucks more, but shes worth it.
I love this place. Briggitte and Kate are awesome.
Love the Chair, just wish I had more hair for Michael to work with!
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 Ive 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!
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 Ive had in years, hands down.
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 Id expect for a city salon, great deal! Id highly recommend
Ive 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 Id have to wait another month for Hannahs next appointment. I couldnt wait. The best part? I kept my appointment for tonight, and the woman on the phone said dont worry, well get you a nice tea, or a glass of wine, and well get you all taken care of. I really like this place -- definitely recommend it!
Best Salon Ive ever been too! The staff is so friendly and my hair looks FANTASTIC. Parking is easy too. I cant wait to go back!!!
This place is the place of Dreams. Great stylists, great atmosphere, they make you feel like a noble while youre 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 received the most horrific haircut in my entire life here from Ashley. The last time I got a cut I hated this much, it was a 2 inch trim-turned bob in 7th grade and it was from Great Clips.I showed her multiple pictures and twice had to remind her that what I wanted was the opposite of what she repeated. She kept cutting, leaving me with short, uneven bangs in the front. I told her multiple times I wanted more side sweeping pieces instead of a few wispy razor cut strands around my face. She didnt listen. She cut the back straight across with a blunt cut that is both uneven and terrible looking. The back was cut in a V prior and she didnt ask which way I wanted it, just did something totally different. The color is nothing like what I showed her, but at least its not ugly. Its manageable. Not a single one of my friends, coworkers, or family think its a good cut and they were all shocked when I showed them the inspo pictures. Im counting down the minutes until I can get in with my regular stylist to have it fixed.
Ive 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. Its one of the few salons Ive ever visited where I can get a great cut (and color) at a very reasonable price but without the attitude. And if Ive had one of those days at work, I know a friendly glass of wine is waiting at The Chair.
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.
Wonderful hair salon! Everyone is so friendly. The space is unique. I see Hannah and she is amazing!
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!
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.
My son and I have been coming here for almost a year. I use to go to The Mens 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
I was referred to this salon by a close friend and I have been visiting them since then.They are the best hairdressers around this place.
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 !
Poor haircut. While the stylist was very friendly this was one of the lowest quality haircut with very little attention to what I requested. For starters I asked for a specific cut on my sides and within the first minutes the stylist mishandled the buzzer and cut deep into my hair, leaving an affect looking like a scar was there. This caused her to not accomplish my request and never mentioned this mistake. Also asked for a hard part and after viewing it noticed it was the first time I had ever had one shaved in that wasnt straight!! Very displeased with the service!
Michelle saved my hair from a botched undercut. She is professional, creative and charismatic. I will never go anywhere else again!
