Welcome to HUM

I’m Scott Tomlinson, and I opened HUM hair design to provide a space that is ideal for the creation of the highest level of technical work, and to promote a relaxing atmosphere for my clients.

The focus at HUM is solely on the most important aspect of hairdressing, the haircut.  It’s the only service you’ll find on the menu.

A well designed and executed haircut is absolutely essential to create the potential for an amazing hairstyle. It is the cornerstone on which everything in hairdressing sits.

(Humming is one of the simplest sounds a human can make. It reduces stress, provides a sense of calm, and lowers ones heart rate and blood pressure.)

I love cutting hair. It’s what I got into this business to do, and I want to be the best I can be at it.

Hair is probably the most interesting, most versatile and deeply personal medium an artist can work with.

 It’s endlessly fascinating.

I have reached a point in my career where I am comfortable with any hair type and can approach it with confidence.

I particularly love doing short haircuts, as you can see if you visit my Instagram profile, which is devoted to the documentation of those I have done.

Short haircuts display their architecture more graphically, and I can interact with the facial features and bone structure of my clients to really do something impactful.

Bobs and pixies obsession aside, I can cut and thoroughly enjoy cutting all shapes, lengths and textures, and you can sit in my chair with confidence.

Credentials:

I have been licensed since 2005. I completed my apprenticeship with master Antonio Santiago at Salon Santiago in Ft. Lauderdale,  where I worked for four years. I moved to Seattle and worked at the Seattle institution VAIN, for 9 years before opening HUM. I have received continuing education from the best hairstylists in the world, training with educators from Toni&Guy, Bumble and bumble, Vidal Sassoon, ZGAT and many others, receiving numerous certifications. A self professed hair nerd, I am constantly seeking out new learning experiences to further my knowledge in the realm of haircutting. If I take time off from the salon, I’m most likely taking a class or teaching one.

Keep in touch..

 

 I offer free consultations, just to chat. Maybe you have a very specific vision for your hair and want to know if it will work for you. Maybe you don’t have a vision at all and need some ideas. ***Covid-19 update: Consulations will be conducted via video conferencing. Please text or email to schedule.***
