Whoever you went to prior to Paulette's is the place you need to complain to! You probably complained to there too!! If you are just one of those people that go to Yelp and constantly complain on everywhere you've been at, you might as well just stay your butt at home and treat your own d*mn hair!! I've been going to Paulette for over 5 years and have always had the best hair experience. I get compliments from strangers at malls, work and at party events. Very professional and lovely environment. I would never switch to another salon. My mom introduced me to Paulette years ago. Paulette trained my mom (a cosmetologist as well) on new trendy styles etc. after my first visit, I was hooked onto Paulette's magnificent highlights, haircut she did to my hair. I am really impressed by Paulette's mastery how she blends colors to make my hair look so pretty. I have definitely gotten plenty of compliments over the years regarding my highlights and layers. Paulette is truly really great at what she does. She also has a big heart!

Our experience at Charlottesville Waldorf School has been an absolutely wonderful introduction to…read morelearning for our child. The teachers create such a peaceful, loving environment where children feel safe, seen, and truly cared for. We've been especially impressed by how thoughtfully the teachers nurture imagination and creativity through play and storytelling. The seasonal celebrations and daily rhythm bring a sense of magic and consistency that our child looks forward to. The extensive time spent outdoors each day is a huge bonus. We heartily recommend the early childhood program to Central Virginia families.

The Waldorf School has been an incredible experience for our family. What stands out most is the…read moregenuine care for each child--not just in terms of schedule and directed learning, but as a whole person. There is a strong emphasis on human connection, creativity, and meaningful interaction, which feels increasingly rare in today's fast-paced, technology-driven world. I deeply appreciate how the school encourages children to step away from "machine life" and instead develop a true sense of self. Rather than focusing solely on productivity or outcomes, the approach nurtures curiosity, imagination, and emotional growth. While inspired by Waldorf principles, the school does not promote any specific ideology of Steiner, but instead captures the essence of holistic childhood development in a thoughtful and inclusive way. Equally wonderful is the sense of community and support among teachers, students, and families. It's a warm, thoughtful environment where children are truly seen and valued. We couldn't be happier.

I have visited here about 3 times. All have been great experiences. The first time was just myself…read moreand I was very pleased with the service. I got a haircut and it was a fix from another local school mess up. The young girl did fantastic at fixing it and a new cut that I showed her a picture of. The second time, I took my kids with me, and they could not stop talking about the salon and the girls. They both were equally impressed and very satisfied with their cut. One of my sons is very OCD and hard to please with his hair cut, but his hairstylist met the demand and was fabulous. I have always had a pleasurable experience from walking in the doors until leaving. I love that you get tea when getting there. The store front is very attractive and welcoming as well as the staff. I highly recommend this salon to anyone. I have not had a bad experience from scheduling to the end of my appointment. WELL DONE AVEDA ARLINGTON!!!!

The video recording will show it. Be careful and don't let her treat you badly, too. Students need to learn customer service skills along with the hair styling techniques. This instructor only serves to show what NOT to do. I love the students here so much! It's why I booked here for eight years. The learning energy is optimistic, which is important, especially in DC. The tall guy at the front desk is incredible at his job. It's this one instructor that seems to have a problem with customers.

I happily came over and was greeted by a really kind lady at the front desk that I believe was one of the instructors. She asked what I was looking to get done, and had me sign in had me pay. She said because the hair was over shoulder length they charge a length fee of an additional $10. Which honestly, that is a very reasonable policy, and $21 is still cheaper than any hair salon ice been to. After a couple minutes handed me over to a student named Patricia. Patricia did a great job and was quick and skilled in her art. She offered a shampoo or for it to dry after as they spray it generously to cut, but I opted for neither as I was on my way home from work and planning to shower once I got home anyway. Definitely will be returning when I want something done with my hair as prices are reasonable, and the people seem friendly.
