Our Stylists

We are artists, technicians and inventors who, honestly, have been around the beauty-industry block more than a few times. But the talent and atmosphere at Shine represents the best of all worlds. Although we consider ourselves part of a team, we enjoy the freedom of using our individual experiences and philosophies to keep things personal. We're not out to impress anybody except our clients (and ourselves, of course). We invite you to come and enjoy the awesome environment here in the Pike Place Market, especially our unique neighbors with whom we share the Inn's courtyard. You can also get your hair done.

Many years ago, I got in trouble for cutting my little sister's hair. Then I got in trouble for dying her hair black. But...

Akiko Biely

I am originally from Tokyo but studied at the Vidal Sassoon Academy in London. I have been doing hair since the early '90s.

Juan Cardenas

In the last 9 years I have accumulated a vast and varied wealth of knowledge in the fields of cut, styling and color.

Chelsea Duke

In my early twenties I decided to do hair until I figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up. Now, more than 10 years later, I am beginning to admit I just may never stop.

Heidi Molina-Lutap

Growing up my aunt was a hairdresser and I would hang out and watch her. I knew I wanted to be a hairstylist like her.

Doria McGahey

The greatest thing about being a hairdresser is spending my day chatting it up with really cool people. I love my clients and I love the people I work with.

Robert Lince

Honestly, I never grew up dreaming of becoming a hairdresser. My childhood dreams had me becoming a motorcycle racer or Formula 1 driver. These are now passions I pursue in my spare time.
