About Lady Neptune

A funky lil' salon, rooted in Seattle.

Lady Neptune was born from a pretty simple idea: everyone deserves a salon experience that actually sees them. We're a collective of independent stylists who believe your hair belongs to you, your texture is the point (not the problem), and the consultation matters as much as the cut.

Every service starts with a real conversation and ends with you knowing exactly how to wear it. Come as you are, ask all the questions, and leave feeling like your favorite self.

What we do

Hair that actually looks like you.

Every stylist here is an independent business owner who sets clear expectations around timing, pricing, and maintenance based on your goals. Pick your specialty, pick your pro.

✂️

Haircuts

Consultation, cleanse, tailored cut, and a full style finish so you leave knowing how to wear it. Short / clipper, standard, or transformation windows.

45–105 min
🎨

Balayage & highlights

Sun-kissed dimension, ribbon highlights, and lived-in color that grows out gracefully. Built around your tone and your routine.

Booked w/ specialist
💜

Vivid color

Bold all-over color, money pieces, peekaboos, split dyes. Our colorists love a wild brief and will tell you exactly what maintenance looks like.

Vibe forward
🌊

Shags, wolves & razor cuts

The shapes that built our reputation. Texture, movement, and a finish that holds up between visits — even if you barely style it.

Our specialty
💈

Barbering & gender-affirming

Fades, clipper work, gender-affirming silhouettes. A salon chair that doesn't make you explain yourself first.

Always welcome
🌀

Modern perms & extensions

Soft, modern texture builds and integration-friendly extensions. Eco-friendly formulas, clear maintenance, real conversation up front.

Color correction too

Clients in their own words.

"Cassidy was an absolute dream! 💕 Lovely person with a very welcoming and kind energy who absolutely NAILED the vision I had for my hair. I've known my hair has texture for a while, but I've never had a haircut that properly compliments it until today!"

"Lady Neptune is amazing! After 4-5 years of having short haircuts from other salons that *almost* looked great, I came in and they gave me a new style that actually WAS perfect! The consultation was super in depth, and they even helped me learn new things about my hair!"

"Syd did my hair and absolutely nailed it. We did a shag haircut with a blonde/dark brown split dye and the cutest raccoon tail piece. The salon itself is beautiful, welcoming, and very queer-friendly. I haven't loved my hair this much in years."
