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).

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 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.

Sonia did an excellent job with my curly hair, bringing me back to my more natural color and getting rid of all the faded highlights and cotton-candy fluff that were my dead ends. 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). Bottom Line: It is always wonderful to leave the salon feeling confident and Salon Daniel delivers that

I trust her so much that I let her do whatever she thinks looks good for the vibe I'm going for, and it always looks amazing. She styles it beautifully and it lasts till I wash it with zero effort, and I'm someone who has to style my hair daily normally. Besides her hair skills, Samira is so kind, fun and sweet, hanging out with her while getting my hair done is a pleasure . If you're looking for a stylist you HAVE to give her a try! The salon is so nice as well, super modern with all the fancy stuff, and zero pressure to buy products. Sarah at the front is the bomb and Ali hooked my husband's hair up for our wedding! I'm so glad I found Samira & Salon Daniel, I'll never go anywhere else!

Oh the terribleness level of the woman who greets you is making me speechless…read more She stood there blocking the way as if I would try to run by her and sit on the hairdresser's chair or something. There was literally NOBODY in the entire salon. She looked straght to my eyes and said they were fully booked! She then asked if I wanted to make an appointment. and when I tried to grab the list of services menu, she pulled it back from me and put it down where it was. When I asked if anyone was actually available for a haircut, she said all 3 of the hairdressers were in the 'back'! I saw no one. Is this place a public service place or not? It was so weird, I still can't believe what happened there. And I wasn't looking like a bum or homeless mind you, even if I was, they should treat people nicely. After all it is a salon! People go there to look better! Avoid this place! Find a better spot!
