    The original hair cut

    I've been a loyal client at Beyond Hair Studio since November 2022. Every two to three months, I visit the salon, not just for myself but also for my three daughters who get their haircuts here as well. Orlando's work has always been the reason I kept coming back -- I've genuinely admired his craft and the way he's handled my hair in the past, which is why this review is especially difficult for me to write. Today's visit, however, was deeply disappointing and hurtful. My hair had grown out to shoulder-length, and I came in hoping to have it cut like Orlando had styled it this past winter. I even showed him a photo of the exact cut I wanted -- a cut he himself had done before. Unfortunately, what I received was far from what I asked for. The cut was uneven and didn't resemble the style in the photo at all. When I expressed that I wasn't happy with it, rather than acknowledge my concern, Orlando got defensive and began to justify the result by saying the original haircut had been done while I was transitioning from a pixie cut -- which didn't make sense to me, given that my hair is now significantly longer, offering more room for the same style. He then tried to convince me that "the length didn't matter," which completely dismissed my feelings and the photo I brought in for reference. What hurt the most wasn't just the haircut -- it was the way I was treated. I didn't raise my voice or create a scene. I simply told him I didn't like the result. Instead of an apology or a solution, I was met with frustration, blame, and ultimately, rejection. Orlando told me he no longer felt "comfortable" cutting my hair and that he "knows himself" and just "can't" do it anymore. After years of being a kind and loyal customer -- even bringing food to the staff to show my appreciation -- I was heartbroken to be treated like my loyalty meant nothing the moment I gave honest feedback. I quietly teared up in the salon. While Orlando ignored it, one of his staff members noticed and asked if I was okay. All I could do was gather my things and leave. Not being charged for the haircut didn't make up for the emotional experience of being dismissed and blamed after all these years. This experience was not just about a bad haircut -- it was about the lack of professionalism and empathy from someone I had trusted for years. Feedback, even when it's not positive, should never be met with rejection and blame, especially from a small business that has been supported with loyalty and gratitude.

    I'm obsessed with my hair! Betty gave me beautiful layers that brought my style back to life, and the red dye is bold, fresh, and evenly done. She's also my go-to for nails, so it's a one-stop beauty experience every time. Love her work!

    Excellent service, great location and very clean. The staff is very welcoming and professional. This is my go to salon in the DMV. Orlando did an amazing job a capturing exactly what I envisioned: the color, ombre, cut and style. Angela did great blowout.

    Will definitely visit again. I took my niece for a great haircut the day before and convinced my sister to go the next day for color and cut. Connie did a great job both times! My sister has long and thick hair so she was worried about how long it would take and the quality. She was pleasantly surprised at the time and how great her hair looked and felt after it was all done. Everyone was kind and friendly.

    Orlando has been doing my hair for over a year now. He is great at his craft. I decided I wanted something completely different this time. We made our plan and Dulce executed the plan perfectly. She's very educated and explained the process and upkeep as we went along. As a bonus, Sama did my makeup and did an awesome job. The 3 of them made me feel like a queen today and I highly recommend all three!!! Before and after pic...

    I had an emergency and they squeezed me in great customer service. They did an amazing job with my hair. I'd recommend 10 out of 10. My blowout was absolutely gorgeous and my hair is not damaged.

    So, to begin with my hair was black I went in for a color correction to get a balayage. Left like a messed up calico cat:( However, my hair was multi colors after they completely bleached my hair twice. The reason I'm giving 1star is because I explained I wanted my grey hair blending on top and a lighter money piece. I left with absolutely no grey blending and my roots just covered with dark dye and absolutely no money piece. Also, my hair is still extremely brassy and very orange red with wheat colored highlights. Absolutely nothing that I wanted. I do understand there is a process and going from black to blonde is impossible but I wanted a caramel color. I was there from 10am till 6:30pm and I regretted the whole $800 process and now have to wait till my hair recovers from all the damage to find a new stylist with more experience in color correction. To get a whole new correction. So, positives the environment is great the employees are amazing I really liked the place everyone is very friendly and nice. I also, got my eyebrows done which was amazing definitely 5 stars for eyebrows. Would I recommend this place yes for hair cuts and yes for eyebrows. Absolutely would not recommend for color correction if you have black hair but in all fairness it's always a risk. However, the highlights aren't even at all completely different on both sides and just looks weird. The stylists was Orlando and Angela

    Orlando has being doing my daughters hair for years and he is the best. He always does an amazing job. He also is helpful with hair health and provides her with the best way to protect and care for her hair. Everyone in the studio is always pleasant and polite. My daughter is very comfortable here and we will continue to frequent this salon. Thank you so much Orlando you're the best!

    I loved my experience at the Woodbridge location! I had not been able to take care of my hair for 2 years and my color had grown out and my ends were horrible. I walked out a completely different person and I absolutely loved how they made my hair look and feel and the color... was amazing!! They even treated my scalp for my dandruff issue when washing my color and my scalp feels so soft! They did all that within my budget and I was so surprised! I would deff recommend this salon!!

    This salon is must go. They are fantastic people, welcoming and accommodating. I got my hair colored from another salon and they messed up my hair color. So I called Beyond studio to request appointment and they booked me right away. They explained me all process of fixing my hair color and gave me price quote as well. End result was great I appreciate them. Highly recommended try them and thank me later

    This salon was amazing! Everyone was super professional and nice! I LOVE my hair! I got a cut and color. Angela was wonderful and did an amazing job on my color and blowout. The owner even gave me a consult on my cut and color and I trusted him fully he even cut my hair himself. I will definitely be going back!

    Full color and cut.

    Came in with red hair and left with my beautiful natural brown hair. The workers are so nice, friendly, kind, and fast. They are a well oriented team that is very fast, but efficient with all their work. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone who has a tight schedule as well as anyone who wants to leave with beautiful soft hair!!! The salon itself was also very beautiful and so well clean. You can tell all the workers have hard work ethic and care about what they do!

    Another wonderful experience at Beyond Studio with Orlando and his team Love the new look!

    Is anyone at the salon a curly hair specialist? My hair is extremely curly & thin, I really need a haircut but with my hair being so curly I haven’t had a good time with salons .

    No! I wouldn’t trust that place ever again!

    I have very dark skin but I'm looking at permanent hair removal options (bikini area and beyond. Which laser equipment do you all use? And is the owner able to perform the procedure personally? Do you numb the area prior to starting the procedure?

    And Beyond Studio we don't perform laser does hair skin removal but we hold a master aesthetic and cosmetologist and this is what we recommend you…

(i didn't even mention anything about the cut, she mentioned it herself) and let me go with my toe looking absolutely insane. and just today, not even 2 weeks later, my whole other toe nail just popped off!! never giving this place my money again!! complete waste, awful service, 0/10.
