The salon is clean, bright and has a fun playlist playing in the background. Kacey and her sister Bo were taking the appointments and I got Bo! She was fabulous! She kept the length as much as she could while also taking off what needed to be refreshed. They were both so nice and we chatted away during the appointment. I am making another appointment in early August for a cut and color! I highly recommend you make an appointment to see these ladies. No walk-ins --- appointment only. No public restrooms. Right next to Dunkin Donuts. Plenty of parking and multiple chairs for multiple appointments at the same time.

I've often driven past Jenn Shin Studio when I'm in Rockville, and since I was looking for a new…read morestylist, I decided to finally reach out. From my first conversation with Jenn to scheduling my appointment, she was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and professional. She truly cares about her clients -- even though she wasn't accepting new ones, she took the time to recommend stylists at her studio who would be a great fit for my needs. I ended up booking with Cindy, and she did not disappoint! She was so sweet and did an amazing job with both my cut and color. I asked for layers and a color that would blend my grays, and she nailed it! I highly recommend Jenn Shin Studio -- and especially Cindy!

Was my hair in desperation or what. I allowed my hair to grow since last visiting in January and…read morethe color was pretty but very long overdue for a cut and refresh. I wanted to go darker, shorter and mature. Jessica has always been my girl and she did an amazing job getting me to where I wanted. I would definitely say we cut at least 6 inches off. It did take a while (8 hours to be exact), but if that's what it takes to get my hair looking amazing then so be it. They have plenty of snacks and drinks available or you can always order food for delivery. Went yesterday and it was super quiet. So I highly recommend going on a week day if you can so it's not as packed. The salon is very clean and inviting. Everyone who works here is very sweet. I haven't tried their scalp/head massage station since they've added it but heard good things.

I went to Sung Lim for a cut and color recently and was so impressed by his genuine attention to…read moredetail. He is a very rare stylist who thoughtfully curates a hairstyle to each individual and not simply copy/paste the same style. I particularly appreciated that he wasn't afraid to give me recommendations and take me out of my comfort zone without being too pushy. And so glad I trusted him with this recent style! Highly recommend seeing Sung if you want that personalized type of expert experience.

It was time for me to do something with my "bad hair day" today. I booked my appointment with…read moreHeather 2 weeks ago and she was easy to communicate with through text answering some of my questions. She was very professional and pleasant. What I love about her is the fact that she took her time checking my hair, how to achieve the color I want and the haircut I was aiming for. She did a hair test first before applying color all over my hair which all salons should really do first. Then she explained every process and how long will it take. She took her time doing my Color and Keratin treatment. After 4 hours... I so love the end result and will definitely be back.

How am I the first person to review the salon lofts in Gaithersburg? It was my first time seeing…read morethis concept, and it's kind of cool. Every independent business rents out their own apartment-like space with windows looking into the hallway and sliding doors. I got a haircut with Josie, who was fun to chat with. Her space felt serene with light blue paint on the walls, and plants hanging around the window. Not to mention she made sure that I got the haircut I wanted and left feeling like a million bucks. I only wish that the space lent itself to a central waiting area. There were small benches in corners of the halls outside of some of the businesses, which were a bit awkward.

I love that each hairdresser or independent business have their own space to run their beauty salon. It's especially great during this time where you want to limit interactions with people. Entrance is next to Dog Haus. There is no one there to greet you- you just take the stairs or elevator upstairs and find the correct loft number.

This was my first time getting my hair professionally done at a salon and I couldn't be more than…read morehappier with the results of my dark brown balyage. I recently moved to the DMV from NY for school and decided to go with her salon because I wanted to support a small business and the other reviews were great! Booking the appointment was seamless. Annum was able to accommodate an earlier appointment time for me since I had a scheduled meeting later that afternoon. I visited her almost a month ago on April 6th, 2021 so here is my comprehensive review. My balayage took a little under 1.5 hours to complete. She was very efficient while also ensuring that my hair retained its natural moisture and health. She made sure that she respected my time due to my meeting later that evening. When I returned home, I did notice that the toner didn't take on a small but noticeable section of my hair that was noticeably blonde. I immediately texted Annum to let her know and she squeezed me in the same day to reapply the toner for the area, which was a very quick fix. Not every hair stylist would show this level of dedication to ensure that I had the best experience. After a month, the color has held up beautifully and I've received endless compliments on her work. In terms of parking, there are public parking garages on the same street that are affordable and accessible (~$1.25/hr). Highly recommend booking her, she's very professional, honest, and genuinely takes care of her clients! Support your small businesses and book her!!

Annum is THE person to go for all your hair related needs. I promise you, you won't go anywhere…read moreelse after seeing her. Long story short, I came to Annum after nearly 2 years of not letting anyone touch my hair because of a disaster that left me in tears with shoulder length hair when I was supposed to only get an inch off my super long hair (obvs, this wasn't her who did it). Now I literally only trust Annum to do my hair and recommend her to all my coworkers, friends, and family. Not only is she precise with all her cuts and color, she can also recommend what she thinks will be flattering for you which is especially nice for people who may not come in with inspo pictures. After she brought life back to my sad hair, I trusted her to finally go ahead and give me some color with a balayage. I haven't looked back since then and have only been going lighter with each visit! The best part is that even several months later, my balayage looks fresh and perfect despite my hair growing out. I personally give her creative freedom and trust her with whatever color she thinks is gonna look great on me but you can always bring/show her what you want and she'll recreate it to the best of her abilities! Remember folks, every artist is different and uses different techniques so an exact recreation isn't really possible. She's great at listening to what you want while also protecting your hair from any unnecessary damage and if you aren't happy with it (which I'm sure is rare) she'll fix it! Annum herself is a delight to come in and see. She's always so sweet and sociable - it's always fun to talk to her while she's working her magic on my locks! I appreciate that she has her own private suite in a salon with other artists which does make her hijabi friendly BUT bear in mind that there are men who will walk around as they probably work there too. I have hijabi friends who don't see this as a problem but to each their own. In terms of pricing, I think her rates are very fair especially considering what some other salons (super side-eye to yall) charge for balayages and color services that aren't even close to beauty that she creates. Again, bear in mind that while it isn't cheap - no hair stylist gives you a refund for services already done! Common sense right? Apparently not. Like I said before, if you aren't happy for whatever reason; let her know and she'll fix it. You'll be hard pressed to try and find ANY salon or stylist that'll refund you for any reason. Booking is easy but she does book super fast so make sure you make your appts well in advance! My thick desi hair won't let anyone else touch it so seriously, treat yoself and get your hair blessed by Annum and her magical hands!
