    Another side

    There are many problems with our visit to Bubbles in Tyson's Corner location. First of all, the reception Leiyanna, who was totally rude during my mother and I walked in. I said to her "Hi, is there a wait for a hair cut?" She said "no, have you been here before? It $45 dollars" I pause for a little, not because it's $45, I always go to the one in Pentagon city, and never was told this bluntly about pricing prior to anything...... then I said "yes, I have." She looked me dead in the eyes "can you speak up, I can't hear you." My volume was fine, I can tell because some customer altready turned their head our way because our conversation was relatively loud. I was a little annoyed at this moment, because I don't think it is ok for someone in service industry to have this much attitude when I did nothing but walked in the door. The conversation went on, she of course pretend she couldn't hear me a couple more times to a point i said to myself that if she does that again, I am gonna just walk out. Then here is second part, our "Stylist" Minoo comes in the play, asked what I mother want, she also pulled out her phone and we picked a mid length boy cut. The pictures attached are her "art". I had to walked in couple if times to translate because my mother don't speak English. When she think she's finished, my mother waived me over, and asked me to tell Minoo the back is too long for the front, she looked like she's from the 70s men who kept their top short and curly but have a long back if you know what I'm trying to say? So I asked Minoo, if she can cut the back a little shorter, since this does not look like the picture we picked out at all, but at least it has to be proportionate. This lady said to us" yeah but I have another customer". EXCUSE ME?! YOU CAN'T LEAVE HALF WAY BECAUSE YOU HAVE ANOTHER CUSTOMER! At this point I really don't think there is any reason for us to give it a try anymore. It's one thing this place does not have a skillful hair dresser, or artist, stylist, it is another thing that they don't have the right attitude for what they were doing. If you don't care about your client, I am sorry, we won't care about you. I went to Bubbles in Pentagon City Mall to fix my mother's hair and did mine at the same time. Nagi was great as always.

    He did an amazing job on my hair !!!! Thanks

    I came back after 2 years now that I'm officially a DMV resident and Long did an amazing job ! I highly recommend him for any detailed cuts. Very honest, funny and super detail oriented (WHICH IS A PLUS). Came in for a new cut and he KILLED it as always !

    Abrasions on back of neck.  Wanted a neck trim, and got a skin trim instead!

    First of all, they greeted me with a nice dose of anti-middle eastern guy discrimination. Bravo Bubbles! It was all Asian stylists in there except for one geriatric Lebanese man. One look at my hairy suicide bomber face and the receptionist ran to the far corner to the old Lebanese stylist as if to say, "We no want touch grimy desert boy...he's all yours." But that's not the end of it. All I wanted was a neck trim, and this old fool gave me one of the worst neck trims I have ever had. His clippers were not properly cleaned and prepared, and as a result, his blades did a better job of cutting my skin than my hair. It was quite painful. And they charged me $15 for that miserable job they did. Pictures attached. I'd like to shave all of their heads with a dull razor and no water.

    The customer service was good but this was the worst cut and color I have ever received, soooo far from what I asked for. Do not recommend.

    I recently moved to Arlington, VA from Maryland and for months I've looked everywhere for a hair…read morestylist. For context the stylist I've been to for years is based in Baltimore and with how traffic can get I can't justify spending 40% of my saturday going to Baltimore to get my hair done. So I began the search looking for a new hairstyle salon. Tried Alexandria, Springfield, even Fairfax. But none have provided what I need and certainly not justifiable of the price it commanded. So I tried HairSocial because I found it on Google and I liked I can book online. My hair appointment consists of the following: Wash, Blow Dry, and an undercut. Sometimes I'll get it flat-ironed depending on the occasion. So I booked 4 days in advance and when I arrived for my appointment I had to wait 20 mins after my actual time (for context it was a Sunday afternoon and no one else was in the shop except for one customer). When I was seated I was only given a haircut and nothing else despite asking for a hair wash and a blowout. Considering I had to put a downpayment online to book the appointment I naturally felt bamboozled. They offered to do what I originally asked but they said I had to wait an hour. I didn't have time as I had a family dinner I had to attend so I decided to go home and wash my own hair. Before I left, the front desk offered to refund me on my card and then said no and could only offer me a credit. The credit was tied to my account yet the credit isn't available when you book online you can only access the credit if you call to set up an appointment. Extremely disappointed but the stylist did a great job with my haircut. I'm just disappointed that I didn't get what I paid for at a reasonable time. Thankfully the management of the loc in Tysons Corner set things right and as a result despite this location being closer to me I go out of my way to visit the HairSocial in Tyson's Corner (that review will be coming shortly).

And Walter is also amazing & they were super friendly. I had a great time getting my hair done. I have black hair and wanted to lighten my hair & color ("rose gold" to be exact with a bit more pink tint to it). Because my hair is very dark, to get it really light it would've taken another session on another day but Daniel did his best to lighten it as much as possible and gave it a beautiful rose gold color to my hair.

Daniel's demeaner was completely short and unwelcoming the entire time. I arrived for my consultation at 6pm to the building doors being locked, and Daniel acted as if it was my fault/I was severely inconveniencing him for coming down to open them for me. I would've happily came earlier if I knew/was notified of that. When I entered the salon, it was just messy and looked gross to be in. The decor is weird and there was a door that said "Tattoo" right in the sitting area? Daniel rushed around without bothering to acknowledge my presense. His assistant/other guy in the salon was so nice and outgoing, but otherwise it was a total cold shoulder and I felt burdensome to him to be there. I will give Daniel credit that he is knowledgable in his craft and he gave feedback based on what I was discussing with him. However, the lack of "salon side manner" will not have me coming again, and I cancelled my appointment.

I only ever do simple cuts, nothing fancy. My haircut, done by Anderson (a level 3 stylist), is objectively good. The skill was there. But it's definitely shorter than I wanted it. Went in for a lob, came out with an asymmetrical bob...Honestly I was panicking while he was drying it because it was starting to look like Lord Farquaad from Shrek. I asked if he could style it like in the reference pictures I showed (simple waves, to reduce Farquaad-ness). He tried to do it with the brush/dryer, which obviously wasn't working, and didn't want to use a flatiron. So I just suffered through scalding heat on my scalp and hair pulling. I got told I don't have curly hair. I got told I don't have frizzy hair. I, in fact, have both of those. Some other minor things: 1. When I got home I had some hair that was noticeably longer than the rest, like it never got cut. So...I had to do it. Just a few strands, but normally stylists check for that when your hair is dry. 2. I almost never use heat on my hair, so I asked for recs and mentioned a specific brand doesn't work for me. He immediately said he loves that brand. I said yeah...but it doesn't work for me. Anything else? "Any salon brand." Cool. Not helpful. 3. Asked for something at the end to tame the pieces that were sticking out (again, I have frizzy hair). He looked...confused? Smoothing as a last step has been standard at every other place I've been to. There is nothing in the whole salon like that? Also, my introvert-self just wants to go somewhere where I don't have to be engaged in conversation the whole time. Anyway. Won't go back, my hunt continues.

    UPDATE: Just look as his ridiculous responses to my review: Yelp does not allow me to use the…read morewords I would use to describe this kind of behavior: As you can see from the screenshot, in our private conversations, he said it was a balayage for $260. And I tipped $20 for $280. Yet when I complained that it felt like a ripoff bacuse the work was so poor, he invented this new story that: (1) I received a "retouch on my roots" that I should have paid extra for (2) in a perfect world I should pay EXTRA (WHAT?) for bringing my own dye in (because Arctic Fox is so controversial??!?) (3) that "the area is expensive" (4) that apparently i need an ongoing longterm relationship to have a dye job that doesn't leave me feeling ripped off (5) that "we always have free dialog" so that "you can alawys get alterations to your service complimentary of course" -- this is the biggest sticking point. Oh really? You have a dialog for complimentary alterations? When I messaged my complaint directly on Yelp, there was no response. The same inbox that booked my appointments suddenly went silent. Why was I not offered free alterations if I don't like my service? BECUASE THAT'S A STORY YOU TELL ONLY ON YELP. THAT OPTION WAS NEVER GIVEN TO ME. This is a man who tells one story to the public, and another in private. Personally, I call that LYING and DISHONEST. ---- He then said "i DID WHAT WAS NEEDED" to explain a bad job that was unsatisfying. So was MICROWAVING FISH AND EATING IT IN FRONT OF ME needed? Because most of the work wasn't even done by you, it was done by a subordinate. Anyone with 1/2 a brain should be able to see the level of ego just dripping off his response. Now go look at the other people with unsatisfied balayages. They were smart enough to take pictures and you can see how terrible some of them are. I'm tempted to go dig up my pictures. ORIGINAL REVIEW: tbh i won't be returning after that $280 dye job + cut where you used the scissor to make like 2 cuts, and where i had visible roots walking out of the place, where it was obvious y'all just wanted me to go because you closed up afterward and were rushing me out. Yeah... as friendly as y'all were ... Visible roots?!?!? No discount for bringing my own dye? Literally every time a friend has come to my house i've had less roots than the one time i paid So what was the point of paying? There was none. I had a wedding emergency and a friend who stole hair products from me. I had no choice but to find SOMEBODY that day. Everyone loves my hair, but i feel ripped the f off. P.S. If you update your response to my review again, i WILL go dig up the pictures and attach them.
