Emerson Salon

Whether you need a new 'do for your next album cover, or you want to make a good impression at a job interview for the album photographer position, Emerson Salon can give you a cut, color, or style that's easy to care for and looks great even when you style it yourself. Located in the Capitol Hill area, Emerson Salon has a fun and casual atmosphere, with rich wooden interiors and large storefront windows. Watch the hustle and bustle of the city from the comfort of your chair as the masters of style give you the perfect look. Services range from a standard style cut ($40) and hue-enhancing highlights ($55), to deep conditioning ($25) and updos (contact salon for pricing). Each of Emerson's stylists is a master hair shaman who knows how to snip, dye, and charm the most distraught bristles, frizzies, and Medusa head-snakes. They sense your innermost hair yearnings, then direct their careful scissors in tune with your thoughts and dreams, letting their creative forces flow wildly onto your scalp for a haircut that revolutionizes the way you look in the mirror—inside and out. Afterward, in the streets, you might find that your magnificent mane busts the binds of its bowler hat and leaps into sunshine, dappling the dark alleyways of careless coiffures.
