About

Bear Essence Salon is a salon with an attached boutique in Evergreen. Its hair stylists and nail techs are independent contractors who rent their space from the salon, and clients pay them directly rather than the salon. Pricing and services can differ from one stylist to another, so it helps to check with the person you plan to book.

The owner, Cindy Hillegass, is a master colorist and stylist with more than 32 years of experience as a salon owner and hair stylist. She is the only stylist at the salon who offers Color Me by Kevin Murphy ammonia and PPD free hair color, Keratin Complex smoothing treatments and customized sunless spray tanning. The salon describes its setting as relaxed.

Tanning comes in two forms. Clean tanning uses products the salon describes as vegan, cruelty free and made with natural DHA, free of parabens, palm oil, mineral oil and sulfates, and made with recycled materials. Customized spray tans are matched to skin type, skin tone and the finish a client wants, with several formula options to choose from.

The boutique carries handmade jewelry in western, bohemian, Native American, southwestern and trending styles, along with homemade soaps and bath products that are vegan and free of sulfates, parabens and phthalates. The salon does not offer vivid fashion hair colors. Clients are asked to arrange childcare outside the salon during their service, and they can book online or contact their stylist or nail tech directly.

Each stylist and nail tech works independently, so services and pricing can differ by person.

The salon describes its environment as relaxed.
