Herodias.
Her name was Herodias. See Matthew 14 and Mark 6 for the accounts.
Herodias, the sister-in-law, then wife, of Herod.Mark 6:14-29 is the account in question. Herod married Herodias, the wife of his brother Philip (something that John spoke out against). Herodias then wanted John dead, so when her daughter (probably Solome) from her previous marriage, was asked to dance, Herodias asked her to request the head of John as payment.

King Herod, his brother's wife Herodias, and her daughter were involved in John the Baptist's death. Herodias' daughter performed a sensual dance to please King Herod, and he promised her anything that she wanted. She asked her mother what she should request, and Herodias told her daughter to ask for John the Baptist's head on a platter. Because King Herod gave his word, he was forced to give the daughter what she asked for, and the daughter took the head to Herodias.
Salome, who was Herodias' daughter.

Salome
The gospels say that Herod Antipas had John the Baptist beheaded early in the mission of Jesus, at the request of his wife Herodias, who had a quarrel with John. The gospels do not say what Herodias then did with John's head. We can not rely on history for the answer to what Herodias did, since it appears from the record of the Jewish historian Josephus that John the Baptist died approximately 35 CE in the castle of Macherus, both too late and too far away for the gospel story. Moreover, Herod had John imprisoned and executed because he feared a Jewish uprising to result from John's criticism of him, contrary to the gospel version that he reluctantly had John beheaded after Herodias tricked him. On this evidence, Herodias never asked for, and never received John's head.
