She is so friendly and accommodating and I trust her judgement on what type of haircut would suit me. I will sometimes come in with some inspiration, but other than that, I let her take the reins and do whatever, so long as I am consulted about the length! Sometimes I like keeping my hair long, sometimes I'm just ready to chop it all off. I also really like how this studio is set up where she only works on one person - it's intimate but also comfortable. Joy is such a pleasure to go to when I need to get a fresh cut. I am trying to be better and get my hair cut more often, but she is such a treat that it almost feels wrong to come too often...but so long as I am in the area, I will ALWAYS go to Joy and will recommend her to anyone.

Old Town Alexandria, VA - I've been to many hair salons in my life and this is my favorite…read more Everyone here is completely kind and my stylist and hair cutter extraordinaire always makes me feel beautiful from start to finish. Upon entering you will find a modern salon with a little bit of an Asian flair in decor. Very clean and calming. I guarantee you will be greeted with a smile, an offer to store your coat and a drink if you like. The waiting area is clean and neat and features a coffee machine and a refrigerator with a selection of refreshing drinks. Honestly I've never waited long because appointments run on time. Next is the hair wash station where I'm always soaped up with lovely scented shampoo that suits my hair type. And there's the heavenly head massage. I could sit there all day! I have short hair and Kevin is an expert at this kind of cut. Love the way he flips the scissors as he works. I've also seen some great color work and he's got many customers with long beautiful haircuts as well. Payment at the front desk is super easy. All the stylists and shampoo artists take cash or Venmo for tips. I highly recommend Aquilano salon.

When my family moved to the area in 2021, I was searching for a place to not just get my hair…read moredone--but to truly be cared for. That search led me to Marcia's Hair Salon, and I've been a loyal, grateful customer ever since. This salon has been nothing short of a gold mine. From the moment you walk in, the energy is different--welcoming, warm, and immaculate. The décor is stunning, and they even have a beautifully curated section just for children. You can feel that every detail was chosen with love. The owner, Marcia, is a beautiful soul who makes you feel seen and valued. She always greets me with a warm hug and a smile, like family--and that speaks volumes. She clearly takes pride in her business and treats her clients like royalty. Now let me talk about Linda, my stylist--and truly, a hair artist. I wear braids, and I can either show Linda a picture or just explain a concept, and she brings it to life--sometimes even better than I imagined. Her gift goes beyond technique. She's intuitive, visionary, and deeply skilled. Other stylists in the salon often come to her for guidance, which tells you just how respected she is. Linda is gentle, kind, and absolutely phenomenal. She's not only elevated my hair's health and strength, but she's also touched my heart in ways that go beyond the chair. In a moment of real personal hardship, she extended kindness and generosity that I'll never forget. That tells you everything about her character. I never leave dissatisfied. My hair is healthier than it's ever been. The experience, the energy, the service--all top-tier. I won't go anywhere else, and honestly, I don't need to. This is home. If you're looking for a place where you're treated like more than a number... Where your hair is handled with care, creativity, and true expertise... Where the people are as beautiful as the styles they create... Marcia's Hair Salon is the place. 10/10. Deserving of all the glows, all the praise, and all the flowers.

I hate to write these types of reviews. Doesn't mean I won't write them, I just hate to do it…read more This review is on Robin, NOT the salon itself. I scheduled a 9am appt for today with Robin after being referred by a friend. I had been really excited to get my hair braided and I trusted my friend's recommendation. I was sent a link to book with Robin directly and I quickly confirmed the booking. This morning I made my way to the salon, admittedly having a bit of trouble locating the salon. It's in a shopping center behind the McDonald's for anyone who may need that info.... as a first time client, I sure did. Anyway, I arrived at 9:05. Grabbed my keys, my phone, my mask, and hurried inside. There was a stylist in the salon working on a client who kindly greeted me. I informed her I had an appointment with Robin at 9, and she escorted me to a seat and assured me Robin would be right back. Well, that turned into a 10 minute wait, and I decided to ask the other stylist if she knew where Robin was. She didn't, but told me Robin may have gone to grab a bite to eat which is totally understandable. I waited a few more minutes before checking my email to see that Robin sent a cancellation email of my appointment at 9:02. I told the other stylist this, and she gave me Robin's phone number (which is NOT on her website). I called Robin, left a voicemail apologizing for my short delay and assured her I'd be patiently waiting. After a few more minutes I called my friend who referred me to ask if this was normal of Robin. I told her I was a few minutes late due to not finding the location, the GPS takes you past the storefront! Not great... She told me it wasn't, and tried to contact Robin thinking it may have been an emergency. I waited almost an hour, before contacting another one of my friend's who actually ended up knowing Robin to ask her if she had a different phone number. She didn't, and she decided to contact Robin herself. No answer. I thanked the stylist who was working for her help, but told her I would be leaving. It's almost 11am, and after a phone call and email to Robin I haven't heard anything back, nor am I interested in hearing back. Robin did, however, replied to my friend to say that she had waited 10 minutes, then cancelled my appointment and left. Some issues here: I received the cancellation email at 9:02 am... There's no contact number at all... Robin's website and booking rules state that she has a 15 minute grace period. So, her leaving at "9:10", is still 5 minutes earlier than her posted rules and she wasn't there. I don't like for my time to be wasted, and I won't ever attempt to book with Robin again. I booked with another salon down the street, and the owner assured me they would be there, and gave me an even better price. I look forward to this appointment.

So I went to get my hair done two weeks ago I got a sewin the first problem was the person I spoke…read moreto was not who did my hair.....two the lady used one piece of braiding hair to doy braids for a sewin before she completed I asked to do a quick weave instead but she stated I had too much hair ..... Keep in mind I have been wearing quick weave since I started my job and had never heard that from anyone else. Then once it was done I didn't like it but paid because I knew it would make no difference explaining how I didn't like the look. Soon as I got home and tied it down how she said the style looked crazy the next day. And today I had to take two tracks out because they were hanging all in all I shouldn't be paying to get my hair done again especially since I explained why I wanted a sewin done in the first place.
