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).

I've been going to Heart for over 10 years, and don't trust anybody else with my hair. Before…read morefinding her, I struggled with brassiness and orange tones in my highlights. My hair is naturally brown, but I have grays coming in, which makes coloring even trickier because I need gray coverage while still keeping dimensional highlights that look natural. Heart took the time to really understand my hair and, over the years, developed the perfect formula for me. She somehow manages to cover the grays beautifully without it looking harsh or obvious as it grows out, while also keeping my highlights dimensional and free of the brassy/orange tones. What's even more impressive is how much healthier my hair has become since seeing her. She's incredibly knowledgeable about hair health and has taught me so much about how to properly care for my hair over the years. My mom also goes to her and has learned a lot from her as well. One thing I really appreciate is that the client never feels pressured to buy products or upsold on things you don't need. She genuinely loves what she does and truly cares about helping people understand and care for their hair. The biggest game changer for me has been her Hair Blessings leave-in conditioning spray. It has genuinely helped heal both my hair and my daughter's hair, and my hair has never been healthier or more manageable. After more than a decade as her client, I can confidently say Heart is exceptionally talented at both color, cut and hair care.

I came here based on positive yelp reviews. Unfortunately I am not as pleased as some other…read moreYelpers. I had very grown out highlights and came here to be restored to blonde once again from a mousey dark blonde/very light brown. My appointment was with the owner Effie who is very fashionable and has beautiful hair herself. She told me it would take multiple visits before I could achieve the blonde that I wanted which was understandable but I left the salon just hating my hair. It came out with very brassy, stripey, highlighted hair with chunks of hair that looked over processed. Also, I paid $300 for this to be done. It's not THE worst color I've had done but I am definitely sad and feel robbed of my hard earned money :(

Filled with gratitude to Julie at Mirror Mirror Salon in Vienna. I posted in this group earlier, in…read morehopes of finding a stylist to fix my hair. She reached out to me via DM and offered to help me with my hair-mergency. I previously went to a salon in Falls Church where my hair was cut unevenly(one side longer than the other/thinner than the other), severely thinned out at the bottom and given choppy "layers"(if you could even call them that. Initially I wasn't able to tell walking out of the salon due to the way the stylist had blew out my hair - it was only when I washed it for the first time that I noticed it. I was too embarrassed to even take photos of my hair and tried to hide it the best I could by curling it again for work. Julie did an amazing job saving what she could of my hair. She evened out the bottom as best as it could be (there is still some thinness/patchiness just due to the previous stylist) but I couldn't be more grateful for her time and work. If you're ever in need of a great service, I highly recommend seeing Julie and taking advantage of her 20+ years of knowledge/experience.

I've been…read morecutting and dying my own hair for probably 16 years now with a professional trim probably thrown in three times over those 16 years. I knew it was finally time for a big chop and I'm so grateful I ended up in the hands of Tricia!! She really listened to me and made sure I was okay with how things were looking throughout the entire process. I can't thank Tricia enough for transforming my hair from way too long, dead, flat and unhealthy to a much more full, healthy, face framing look. She understood exactly what I was asking for and executed! The location was cozy and casual and I knew I was in good hands right off the bat. The salon is on the second floor and easy to find if you are looking for the coffee shop in the plaza. It's one of those locations you'll probably drive by the first time but once you find it it's easy to remember.

My first experience at Revel was awesome. Daniel, very much knows what he is doing and I recommend…read morehim to everyone who is looking for a hairstylist. 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. And turned out so pretty!! Daniel will give you his honest opinion and explain to you why it will work or why it will not work. And he will give hundred and ten percent to make you look glamorous. I will go back to Daniel for all my hair needs.

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've been testing out new salons since moving here with the hope of finding one I really like that…read morealso doesn't break the bank, and had high hopes for this one based on the reviews. 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.

I have been to places where the style or the cut was not right for my face or my hair type, but Sonia was knowledgeable and helpful in suggesting length, layers and ways to take care of my hair (which is always on the drier side).

It's been a journey finding…read morethe right place and the right stylist, especially after moving around so much... but I think it's safe to say after getting treatments in the northeast, in the DMV, and in Asia, I've finally found my place (yay!!!!!) I truly wish I had found this salon when I first moved. I scheduled an appointment with Ellie, and I just had a feeling she knew exactly what to do with my hair with my little guidance: partial, even out tone, and have a balayage that complements my skin tone. She did just that. And in record breaking time of 2.5 hours? I'm usually at the salon for 3+ hours. I'm hypersensitive to smells, so it was really kind that they were able to provide me a mask. They also offered beverages, and I opted for green tea! Lastly one of the coolest things is when they're washing your hair they have a seat recliner so that your legs are relaxed ! I've only seen this in Asia so that was really awesome to have! They had a special for 15% off during the month of October so I was really lucky to receive a good price as well. I highly recommend Salon Virage and Ellie for balayage! They really do it right over here!

I called the salon and the manager Sebastian was very apologetic and quick to help. Fadi then called me back and offered to correct the service for free if she wanted to give them another shot.

He was so kind and the smile on her face after he finished cutting and coloring her hair was worth it. I'm confident she will return to see Fadi. Maybe we chalk the bad first experience up to an off day or a miscommunication with the first stylist? Either way, hats off to Fadi and Sebastian for their service. Btw, the salon is very nice inside and I overheard many other happy customers.
