This review is for Sera…read more I completely understand that a stylist's time is valuable, and I know it's frustrating when clients are late. I also understand why my appointment needed to be rescheduled. My issue is not with the policy, it's with how I was treated. I was made to feel like an inconvenience from the moment I walked into the salon. I had a 12:45 p.m. appointment and called before leaving home to let the salon know I was running about 10 minutes late, which is their stated grace period. The receptionist told me she would let Sera know. At 12:56 p.m., when I was literally one minute away from the salon, I received a call saying Sera could no longer see me because I was late, and she had back-to-back clients. While I was disappointed, I understood. I asked if I could still come in briefly to speak with Sera because I wasn't even sure I needed a full highlight service, and the receptionist agreed. When I arrived, Sera immediately told me I needed to reschedule and seemed unwilling to discuss my hair beyond commenting that the back was "really dark" and explaining that she had returning clients scheduled after me. She didn't seem to know or care that I was a returning client. Sera had done my hair in February, and I came back because I had really liked her work. Not recognizing me in and of itself is not a big problem--I know a lot of people sit in her chair--but it made the interaction feel impersonal and left me wondering if she'd even prepared for my appointment. I was fully prepared to work with Sera and the receptionist to find another date and time that fit both of our schedules. Instead, both were unhelpful, dismissive, and rude. This experience was especially difficult because I have pretty severe alopecia areata that, thankfully, is now well controlled with medication, allowing me to grow most of my hair back. That said, I wore a wig for five years after losing most of my hair, so finding a stylist I trust is still an incredibly vulnerable and anxiety-producing experience. Every time I see someone new, I have to explain my hair loss and why I prefer a lived-in color that doesn't require overly frequent trips to the salon. I chose to return to Sera because I thought I had found someone I could continue seeing. Instead, I left feeling embarrassed, dismissed, and genuinely upset. I walked out of the salon, called my husband, and cried like a reprimanded little girl. I am a 35-year-old grown-ass woman. Policies are important, and I respect them. Kindness and professionalism are just as important. Had the situation been handled with empathy and respect, I would have happily rescheduled. Instead, I left feeling less like a person and more like a time slot or a dollar sign. It seems like Sera may have enough clients that turning one away isn't a big deal, but I was respectful, cooperative, and ready to work with her to find another appointment. I deserved that same courtesy and respect in return.

The haircut here was very disappointing and did not meet the standards I have come to expect from a…read moreJapanese salon. 2022 I am new to DC. Over the past five years, I have regularly visited Japanese hair salons in Los Angeles, New York City, and Boston while traveling frequently. In those experiences, even when a haircut did not fully match my preferred style or length, the technical quality was consistently strong, and any adjustments were handled professionally. Unfortunately, this experience was very different. One of the defining characteristics of a Japanese haircut is the smoothness, softness, precision, and careful organization of the layers. In my case, the cut lacked those qualities and appeared uneven and poorly structured (the photo from the back). I was also disappointed by the salon's management. Based on my experience, the overall operation and quality control did not reflect the standards typically associated with Japanese salons. Update (May 2026): Over the past 4 years, I have been with my Japanese hair stylist in New York. I returned to the salon to see Keiko because I was hoping to find a long-term stylist in Washington, DC. I had not had my haircut for 7 months prior to that because I delivered a baby in December 2025. Ozuki appeared to be one of the few salons in the area offering Japanese hairstylists. Immediately after the appointment, the haircut looked good due to the styling and blow-dry. However, within a few days, the shape became difficult to manage and appeared increasingly unstructured. The photo on my ID, taken approximately three weeks after the haircut, reflects how the cut settled over time. In contrast, the Japanese haircuts I have received elsewhere typically maintain their shape and balance for several months. Despite my concerns, I scheduled another appointment six weeks after the first haircut with Keiko because I genuinely hoped the issues could be corrected and that I could establish a relationship with a local stylist. At the same time, I let the management know that my haircut had bad form and hope that it can be resolved at the second appointment. Unfortunately, my interactions with management, Liz, were once again disappointing. Rather than addressing the concerns constructively, the response left me with little confidence that the salon could deliver the level of quality I was seeking. This is the first Japanese salon where I have repeatedly had unsatisfactory experiences. Based on the consistency of those experiences, I am not convinced that the salon operates at the standard typically associated with Japanese hairstyling.

Jeff is an exceptional hairstylist and one of the most compassionate, hardworking people I have ever come across (I'm so happy that he's finally opening up his own salon!). I've had the opportunity to receive 3 different balayage highlight appointments over the past 2 years, and have always been extremely satisfied with the results. In addition to the excellent quality of hair services, though, Untangle Hair Extensions also has an incredibly welcoming environment that will put even the most apprehensive individual at ease. From the moment that you step foot into the salon until the minute that you leave, Jeff and his fantastic team do everything that they can to ensure your comfort (offering beverages, magazines, you name it). Moreover, Jeff (who has the patience of a saint), will happily and thoroughly answer any questions that you might have about the hair extension process, aftercare, and home maintenance. Pricing is very comparable to other hair salons in the DC metro area, and the results are always nothing short of exceptional. I believe that street parking is available, and the salon is located in the middle of a moderately trafficked area with lots of good food options. It's clear from interactions with Jeff and the team that they genuinely care about your wellbeing, in addition to being very passionate (and skilled) about their craft. I can't sing enough high praises about Jeff - you'll just have to go to the salon and experience it yourself! ;) read more

I recently moved to the area from NYC and was incredibly nervous about finding a new stylist -- especially someone I could trust with my extensions. After my appointment with Sera, I can honestly say my search is over. From the moment I walked in, Sera was warm, kind, and genuinely invested in understanding exactly what I wanted. She took the time to listen, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure we were on the same page before getting started. Beyond her talent, she was simply a pleasure to spend time with -- I genuinely enjoyed talking with her throughout the entire appointment. What impressed me most was her dedication and attention to detail. My appointment ended up taking much longer than expected, but Sera never once made me feel rushed or like I was inconveniencing her. She remained patient, positive, and focused on getting everything perfect. My extensions look absolutely incredible, and my hair honestly looks better than it ever has. I've had extensions done for years, and this is one of the best results I've ever had. Sera is exceptionally talented, genuinely caring, and committed to making sure you leave feeling your absolute best. I cannot recommend her highly enough. read more

I have been coming to Capital Hair Extensions for nearly five years for hair coloring and now hair extensions. Before I came to Capital Hair Extensions/ Last Tangle, I had gone to several colorists however, they would apply bleach right on my scalp and I would get headaches after my visit. Jeff is a very caring person and does my hair like no other colorist. After having my hair colored at Last Tangle and decided to get extensions. Jeff listened and now my hair is super long and thick. First, he applies bleach but not directly on my scalp. As you can see from the pictures, the color and length are just incredible. My hair is naturally long but not thick. Jeff does an excellent job with the extensions and now I am so addicted to them! Can't live without them! Several people stop me in the street to tell me that they love my hair. I truly have to thank Jeff and the staff. Elizabeth, Aida and Didi are so nice and friendly. I love this salon and the people in it. Excellent service! read more

Jeff the salon owner is the best! He did an incredible job with my color, cut, and tape-in extensions.

The tape in are easy to maintain, and the extensions feel lightweight and the color is great. He's also professional, detail-oriented, and creates such a comfortable, welcoming experience.
