My life has always revolved around hairstyling. My mother was a hairdresser in the 60's and I have been behind the chair since 2005, opening my own studio in 2018. I specialize in all hair types and my passion comes alive with any kind of blonding, from subtle highlights to bright bleach and tone. I generally take an organic approach, I focus on movement and flexibility, I absolutely do not discriminate and I absolutely love doing hair!

Rand Ringgenberg: StudioHair 120

Rand brings over 25 years of experience as a master stylist, premier colorist, and Chicago salon owner to StudioHair 120. Training younger stylists, he developed new standards for cutting and coloring with precision and detail. Rand has an extensive background in color theory, which led to him teaching advanced color application and techniques for L’Oréal. His career as a principal stylist for major Chicago theatre companies (Steppenwolf, Goodman, Chicago Opera Theatre) gave him a unique perspective on matching a personality with a style. Rand specializes in contemporary cuts, highlighting, and balayage. To him, hair is both a science and an art.

"I’m Lancer, a Capitol Hill Hairstylist. I am not pushy or intimidating, and I provide a Quiet Chair option where you can relax in peace and do whatever you need to do...catching up on emails, reading, or just zone out. A licensed stylist since 1990, I love helping people love their hair again. I have a natural aptitude for hair coloring, and I enjoy customizing coloring for my clients. I have an amiable attitude for my clients, even on crummy, stressful days. I enjoy the connections I have with my regular clients and seeing them happy. My clients feel valued and respected because I listen to what they are saying and not saying, and devise a plan which I revisit and revise as their goals change. I grew up in a suburb of Akron, Ohio with a population of less than 16,000, after which I knew I wanted a different life. Feeling out of place and held back by my gender dysphoria, I left Ohio in 1995 and landed in Seattle in 1999. Looking for a safe space to live and work on my clients, I found community and home in Seattle."

Creates Hair Happiness + Confidence for everyone. I specialize in natural texture, creative cuts with clippers or shears, custom balayage, vintage styling, color correction, vivids and microlock extensions.  "Hi I am D'Arcy! Pronounced Dar-see and my pronouns are she, her, hers.  I have been a licensed cosmetologist since 2003 and a self-employed entrepreneur since 2012. I believe your hair is an essential component of soul expression and approaches client work with acceptance, patience, and understanding.

 I am best known as, “The Vocal Cosmetologist,” due to my impactful grassroots & marketing focus as a leader in the Personal Services trade association “Cosmetologists of Washington United.” Our efforts to protect small business/independent contractors in the State Legislature led to Emerson Salon receiving the 2019 “Washington Advance Awardfrom The Association of Washington Business. "

In March 2021, D'Arcy became sole owner of Emerson Salon.

D’Arcy’s philosophy of hair includes the belief that form must be in harmony with function and therefore, must be in line with the clients’ needs and wishes.  She is a compassionate and understanding stylist whose sole aim is to empower each guest.     She remembers many years growing up wishing a hairstylist would listen to and understand what she wanted out of her wavy, frizzy hair. This is why D’Arcy has strived for over 18 yrs. to combine her technical expertise with her innate artistic touch. Her main priority is the client and knows its NOT “just” hair.

I have nearly 20 years of experience behind the chair and love creating magic with hair. My specialities include vivid fashion color, dimensional lived in hair, and razor cutting. I love all things hair and strive to stay up to date with the latest trends and techniques. Everything I use to make your hair look and feel like a million bucks is 100% Cruelty Free! I am LGBTQ+ Friendly and my salon is a safe space for all humans to come and be pampered. 

Hey everyone! My name is Diana Contreras, but you can call me D. I am a Master Esthetician and a certified acne specialist who focuses on result driven corrective treatments. 

Like most estheticians, I started this journey searching for answers for my own skin issues. Having dealt with acne for many years, I reached my breaking point. I decided to enroll in esthetics school. With a medical background in the military, it allowed me to excel in esthetics and combine both my passion for helping people and all things beauty. 

I specialize in clearing acne and hyperpigmentation. In order to reach your skin care goals, we need to work together and stay dedicated. Having clear skin and maintaining it requires daily commitment and an effective home care regimen.

So to be transparent, if you are looking for a spa-like facial that rubs your feet and slathers you in oil, I am not the esthetician for you. 

My goal as an esthetician and founder of DC Esthetics is to make everyone feel beautiful from the inside out. I strive to provide my clients with a one of a kind experience. They leave with the confidence and education they need to help their skin succeed.

No Harm was born in love between two Queers who not only want to celebrate their community but also inspire all individuals to be their authentic selves!  Owners Andy & Anita would tell you that the concept of No Harm has been in the works since their time together as co-workers on the hills of Seattle where their love of veganism and each other grew.  No Harm is a collective of so many pieces of our lives but at the end of the day we want to have a space of our own to create dope hair for all with no harm to animals or the planet.
