Artsy, wild, and fun people come up to Heather all the time and say they love her hair. And if you like truly creative, "kind of wild and extreme" styles, you'll love her work too. Originally from San Diego, Heather has been at Gary Manuel Salon since 2001.
"I'm very passionate about what I do," Heather says. Like all the staff at Gary Manuel, she is highly skilled with chemical services such as color. "I wanted to work for a Salon with a training program and I enjoy going to work every day."
You can book appointments with Heather on Mondays or Wednesday through Saturday. Heather can be reached at 206-728-1234, extension 2756.
Her fees are $75 for haircuts, $80 for color, and $160 for multi-dimensional hair color.

If you want great hair, go to Gary Manuel and you will not be disappointed. Any stylist here can do technically amazing haircuts and beautiful color. I like a stylist that listens to what I want but still calls the shots and does what will look the best on me. My favorites here are Opal and Heather, they keep me coming back!!

I've been going to Gary Manuel off and on for over 20 years. They're awesome. Especially Heather!

I've been going to GM for probably 8 plus years now (since college) in Phase 3 Aveda's training salon? I started with Heather when she was just in Phase 3 and have followed her as she's developed and blossomed into ”I have to wait 8 weeks to get an appointment with” stylist. I go in never knowing what I want and I just allow her to be creative. I've got dark course hair so the right cut, sheering and texturing is important. Her prices have increased significantly so I try to go to her maybe once every other time. She's awesome if you are into ”edgy and different”. I had the Victoria Beckham's do way before it became popular! She is excellent w/foils and texturing.
When I am feeling frugal I like to go see Serena in Phase 3. She has assisted Heather and does a great job styling and coloring.

I have been getting my hair cut by Heather at Gary Manuel for over the past year. After moving to Seattle in August of 2006 I didn't know which salon to go to and my hair was starting to get pretty shaggy. After getting a bad haircut at Celsius Salon near Northgate I was reluctant to try other salons in Seattle. Thankfully, favorable reviews of this salon convinced me to try it out-- I am so pleased I found Heather at Gary Manuel.
I have probably been in to see her five times since I started going to the salon (plus a number of times for my free fringe trim) and everytime she has done an outstanding job. She is fun and personable and is always up for trying new cuts. She is great at making suggestions when I'm not sure how I want her to cut my hair and I always leave the salon pleased. Unlike many other salons there is no pressure to purchase product. I have certainly found my stylist and I recommend you give her a try-- I'm sure you'll love the results!

I have been going to this salon for about a year now. Heather does an awesome job. I went to her because I needed a change. She has an amazing talent with her colors and cuts and takes the time to consult with you on what you want. She also is honest about what will work with your skin tone, face shape etc. I get so many compliments on my hair for both the color and cut. I have never been so happy with my hair. I have been trying to get this color for a long time and no one else was able to do it. The cut is just as awesome. She was able to do exactly what I wanted with or without a picture. She is fun on top of all of her talent. She is very creative and funny. If you want a creative style -go see Heather. She is awesome. Everyone is friendly at the salon. Its a great atmosphere.

I was referred to Heather Dobson when she was at their training salon, Phase 3, and was sold after my first visit! That was several years ago. Heather since graduated and works in the salon now, always working wonderful color and cutting magic on my hair. She makes me look like a rock star or a glamour queen...although if you prefer some other kind of look, she'll do that for you too! Everyone there is very friendly - they know who I am by name. They pamper you with cucumber water, coffee or your tea of choice and give the most amazing scalp massages with EVERY shampoo!! I refer everyone looking for a stylist to her, or for those on a budget, to Phase 3. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
