Had a bit of an emergency and was squeezed in last minute and got my hair dyed. It wasn't as simple of an ask as we initially thought but she troubleshooted things well and got some toner in that did the trick. Price was reasonable and she gave it her all despite it being past closing. I appreciate the professionalism and quality of work! read more

Updating my reviews to say I continue to go to this salon since Nolaska took over ownership. She is a fantastic stylist, great colorist, and a wonderful person. My daughter goes here now too. Nolaska listens to her clients and provides outstanding customer service. Bonus her prices are reasonable. read more

I have been going here over 20 years. Many years with Belhar( now deceased ) and his twin brother Nick. The business was taken over by Nolaska who previously rented a chair there. Same exceptional service. read more

Clean, covid-conscious, professional and polite. Was able to make a same-day appointment and brought my 7 year old son here for a haircut after school. Ms. Nolaska did a great job making my son (who has autism and adhd) feel comfortable and cut his curly hair without any pulling at his sensitive scalp. Will come back here from now on! read more

After avoiding hair salons during the worst of the pandemic, my hair was a shaggy mess. I really wanted a neighborhood salon, so I booked Nolaska and have had two haircuts from her. She did a fantastic job both times and I recommend her. I asked her to focus on working with some problem areas, such as a stubborn cowlick and helping me gain volume in my fine wavy hair. She gave me a layered, versatile cut that really works, whether I let it dry naturally or style it. She observes COVID precautions and the large salon is not so crowded that one has to worry. She listens and is efficient. Customer service is important to her. She takes Visa and Master Card. Please consider this excellent neighborhood salon! read more

Nolaska is amazing and extraordinarily kind. My cut and balayage color was perfect. After years of searching for someone who takes the time to really understand what I wanted my hair to look like. Thank you! read more

I was in desperate need of a cut and color. My students asked why the top of my hair was so dark and I knew I had to do something. I am veryyyy picky about my hair so I looked through reviews for a full week before deciding on Mill Salon. I called on a Wednesday and was able to get in the the next day. Nolaska was super sweet and did an amazing job on both my cut and color. Highly recommend!!and my kiddos approved too! read more

Arlington's top talent for cut and color. I've seen either Nic or Behar and ALWAYS get compliments on my hair. Great place for a private manicure/pedicure. Relaxed, friendly, professional atmosphere. read more

Nah man.. I'm not sure where all these good reviews are coming from, must be fake accounts because my haircut was so bad. I had to go to a barber just for them to fix the damage. Never again. read more

Nolaska was able to fit me in at the end of the day and was super sweet! Gave me a wash, cut, and style in 30 minutes. Will definitely be back for future upkeep :) read more

Just got a haircut with wash and blow dry. Nolaska did a great job and listen led to what I asked! I will definitely be returning (:

So glad Nolaska is keeping the salon! She's a wonderful person and does beautiful color. Couldn't be happier with anyone else!! You get magnificent, one on one styling with a smile and a laugh. She's fantastic!! read more

Behar is the bomb. I have short hair and am pretty particular about who is allowed to cut it. Some people do NOT know how to style short hair. Thankfully, Behar does; not only is he a great hair stylist, he's also a great conversationalist. He'll keep you entertained and laughing throughout the hair cut! read more

See all

My husband has been going to this place for over a year now. He gets a 1940s military haircut, which so many hair stylist screw up - it's not an easy cut! But Nolaksa is just AWESOME - actually, they all are (Mili himself did my husband's last haircut) and it was the quality I've come to expect from this place!! He shows her the picture, and she cuts EXACTLY what he showed her. It has a nice boutique feel, without the outrageous boutique prices (it's actually quite cheap!). I usually go with him, just for the atmosphere.... and as far as punctuality, they're usually pretty laid back - if you're 5 minutes late, no biggie! (Awesome, cause I'm always late - haha). Everyone there is so nice, to Mili and your brother: we'll miss you all - we're moving away!! :( I LOVE THIS PLACE!! read more

I feel absolutely betrayed by Yelp. I just moved here and saw that Behar was excellent at coloring hair so I thought that I would give Mili Salon a try. Yes, they're entertaining- but so is reality television.... Doesn't mean I want those people touching my hair. Long story short, I asked for full color blonde just to cover the roots of my hair. His solution was covering my hair in peroxide, burning my scalp, and leaving me with neon orange tinted hair. I'll happily e-mail a before and after picture to anyone. I left horrified and had to pay another salon to fix it and pray that all my hair didn't fall out from the damage he caused. PLEASE save yourself the money and frustration and go anywhere else. read more

Nic did my hair. Did a fabulous job and it cost $55 for wash and cut which I feel is reasonable for this area. However despite the great cut and style there are a couple detractors and reasons I won't be going back: 1.) When I walked into the salon it smelled smokey. Perhaps I'm just overly sensitive and I'd like to assume no one was smoking in the salon but the it bothered me none the less. 2.) Nic was extremely friendly but just too talkative for my taste. He would often stop cutting my hair altogether to stand there and chat about something. Took me over an hour to get out of there. I prefer a much quicker appointment. I know I could have made an appointment with another stylist at the salon but if Nic happened to remember me I would have felt bad. Again, though, Nic was very talented, did a great job with my thick frizzy hair. If the 2 things I find to be detractors don't bother you I would definitely encourage you to make an appointment. Something to note that they accept credit cards as payment but only accept tips in cash. read more

Cori is my hairdresser and I have been with her for several years. I have created quite a cult following for her as I've recommended her to family and friends alike. Now, my sister, fiance, fiance's brother, mother, and sister all go to her. Cori is really great at figuring out what kind of haircut fits your hair profile and lifestyle. If you ask her to cut your hair a certain way, she will be honest with you and tell you if she thinks it will work or not, and let you decide. I usually get the same type of cut, although, she has cut my hair both when short and long, and I've loved both styles. One disclaimer, she is cash only. Also, if you want to grow your hair long, you will need to stress to her that you only want a little taken off, as sometimes she can get carried away. Otherwise, she is a gem. read more

I went to Mili for the first time after reading the positive reviews. My expectations were high and my visit did not disappoint. I had Behr as my stylist and I could not be happier with the result. I came in looking to chop off a good 8 inches and get a long bob kind of cut. With the help of my photos for reference and Behr constantly seeking my approval and handing me a mirror in between cuts I felt extremely comfortable. The end result was exactly what I was looking for and I plan on going back to Behr in the next couple weeks. read more

This place is great. Full-service haircut, and you can get a drink while you wait. With the time and care that the stylists take, it's well worth the price. The inside is really nice, too. read more

Complimentary drinks! Not only does Mili's give you top quality results but the service and employees that work there are phenomenal! I have been here twice already in a span of 2 weeks. They do a great job with both hairstyling and cutting. The brothers that own the salon definitely know what they are doing which, they should having been in this area for over 19 years! Highly recommend this gem! read more

I've been faithful to Cori and Mili Salon since I lived in Arlington about 6 years ago. I now live in Alexandria, but always make the trek back. Cori's excellent at listening to you, and does a great job incorporating your thoughts and ideas together to come up with a great cut or color that really suits you. Cuts are a bit on the expensive side, IMO, but well worth it. I never need to come back in-between cuts for a clean up or trim, and so my hair looks great between cuts. I also love that they offer you a glass of wine or another beverage while you wait and are getting your cut. I'm due for another visit soon, so you can bet I'll be back! read more

LOVE LOVE LOVE Both guys are great. I go to Nick- he is very talented and very fun to talk to. I actually said to him, "do whatever you want" and I left with my long curly hair in the perfect amount of layers and great blond highlights. I am recommending this place to all my friends. read more

I have received two haircuts/ highlights during Covid 19 from Nolaska at Mili's. Very impressed by safety measures and Nolaska's professionalisms. She does an amazing job at a great price. read more

I adore this salon. Got a fantastic partial highlight and cut and the customer service is the best in the area.

Mili is closed. If Nolaska is your stylist, she is now at A2Z Salon which is very close by at 3000 10th St N. between Garfield and Highland in Arlington. Call (570) 772-9118. So glad I didn't lose touch with her. She is awesome! read more

Was recommended by a friend to come here (specifically to see Nolaska) and she did a great job with fixing my previous color with a combination of lowlights and highlights based on a photo I brought in. I'm super picky with my hair and hesitant to try someone new, but I gave it a shot and could not be more pleased. Also, prices are very reasonable especially given the area. Will definitely be returning; thanks, Nolaska! read more

This salon is incredible. I called on a whim wanting to change my hair, I am so glad that fate brought me to Behar. He's a wonderful person and a color/cut styling God. I showed him a photo and he brought it to life. I walked out of there looking like an actual model. I can't recommend this place enough. I expected the price tag to match the results and was pleasantly surprised, extremely reasonable for the area. I will never go anywhere else so long as this place exists. read more

Finding a good salon is akin to finding a good doctor, it is such a relief! I just had my hair styled and highlighted here for the 1 st time, I love it and I'm never happy with my hair. Behar offers great advice and suggestions and is such an interesting person. Thank you Yelpers for introducing me to such a great salon! read more

Kindness, fun and QUALITY!!! My hair looks natural and stunning. They also have the integrity of the hair very much in mind when using color. What more can you ask for from a salon? The owners are one of a kind. Look no farther!! Love this spot, 100 stars! read more

I went to Behar today to get my first haircut in almost a year (yikes) and he was incredible! Beyond welcoming and kind- made me feel like regular customer even though it was my first time there. My hair has never felt so healthy or looked so good, and I greatly enjoyed my time talking with Behar while he styled my hair. After just one visit I already know I'll be back to Mili Salon as a regular customer for as long as they're open! read more

This salon is very convenient, and you get good quality and with a reasonable price for a good haircut in the DC area. I've been to many similarly priced (and more expensive) places and haven't gotten as good a cut as you get here. I don't have to blow dry my hair every day and it still looks good and professional. They don't give you any flak if you admit you don't style your hair every day or use product, or wait too long between cuts. (This was posted by Jon's wife - accidentally logged in as him -oops!) read more

Ask for Nolaska Miller. She's new here but she gave me the best cut I have had in years. She actually listened and gave me what I wanted. When I called her a couple of days later to tell her I still loved it, she told me if I wanted to tweak anything just come by...I said no, it's perfect but it was nice to be asked. read more

Cori is great with curly hair. She has been cutting and coloring my hair for over five years.

Totally rock! Behar is a genius. He REALLY takes time to know what you want, suggest what will look best, and tweak what he's done so it looks absolutely fantastic. Every time I leave, I get dozens of compliments -- even after I've washed & dried it myself -the true test of a good cut! Can't recommend them strongly enough - you will NOT be disappointed! read more

Behar is WONDERFUL for color, especially for us darker skinned ladies. After going to several stylists for highlights, I've learned that not everyone has this skill. Note to beauty schools: please train your students to work on women of color! Behar also minimizes the use of bleach, which helps me have hair much lighter than my natural color without much damage. In general, he's great with consults and suggesting color without being overbearing. Another thing I like about this place is that the prices are really reasonable. Behar is generous with the foils if you want him to be. What I mean is that some stylists will only do the very top layer of hair for a "partial" highlight. He goes all the way in through the sides and lower layers of the hair even for a partial. This makes getting great color much more affordable. I've also been impressed with Behar's commitment to a client's happiness. If I'm not completely happy, he offers to let me wait a week, see how I like it after I'm used to it, and then modify the color with a toner or other color technique. It's easy to get appointments here too, and Behar has made the effort to squeeze me in several times. Plus, Behar always has a drink to offer clients and is very friendly and talkative. One downside to this salon is that it isn't fancy. Doesn't look like much from the outside and the interior is a bit dated. Doesn't bother me a bit as I love the service here. I consider this one of the hidden gems of Arlington, and unlike some other salons in the area, street parking is easy to find on weekdays. Love this place! read more

Love Love Love this place! I recently moved to the west coast and am already missing Behar! He always did an amazing job with my hair (no easy feat... my hair is super curly and unruly). They couldn't be friendlier in there either! You are always met with a smile and hug and while I am getting my hair done I have always been offered a drink (coffee, tea, wine, beer or mimosa) and let me tell you, you haven't gotten your hair done til you have had it cut while sipping a mimosa! :) I have also gotten highlights from Behar several times and have gotten a ton of compliments on the color (he has a superb eye for color)! Before I moved to Cali I lived in MD briefly and still made the trek to Arlington to see Behar! and when I am back east I will be stopping by, it's THAT worth it!!! Check it out, you won't be sorry! read more

I had never wanted to write a review on Yelp until I went to Mili Salon. I had read other posts here about the salon and it seemed to have a pretty positive vibe so I decided to check it out. I essentially called Mili Salon waiving a white flag- new to the area, yet to find a salon that I liked enough to go back to, and having just received the worst haircut of my life from a salon in Rosslyn a few weeks ago.... I was basically desperate. I called on a Tuesday afternoon and they got me in on Wednesday at 6:00. From the outside, the salon looks a little questionable. As a approached I even thought of a few painless excuses to pull out if I walked into the salon and it turned out to be a dump. I walked in and immediately knew I was in the right place. It had a quiet/indie vibe (is the best way I can describe it). It was clean, great lighting, not crowded, simple, had cool artwork and was relaxing. I was greeted by Nolaska, who was cutting my hair that day. Nolaska is a sweet heart who is truly humble about her work and also has a great sense of humor. I told her I needed to add long layers and to soften up the ends of my (literally terrible) haircut from a few weeks ago. She listened, understood, explained what she would do, how it would look, and if I didn't like it, we could always adjust. Nolaska offered me a glass of wine and didn't waste any time getting me to the back to get my hair washed and she started cutting right after. After she was finished she told me if I decided I wanted to adjust it more, I could come back and she would be happy to fix it. To say Nolaska and Mili Salon has given me hope again about Arlington Salons is an understatement. I have now found my salon here after a year of trying out 5 different salons around the DC Metro area. I would definitely recommend this salon to any friend or anyone on yelp! I didn't get a chance to meet the other men working at Mili, but I hope to in the future. THANK YOU MILI! read more

Nik and Behar are terrific. Great service.

I'd just like to give a big shout-out to Nic and Behar for managing to turn around my formerly crappy day. I ended up being an hour late, yet they still took me in and calmed me down, as well as giving me a superb haircut! Great place. Great atmosphere! I will try to come back in -- with my beautiful daughter -- when I'm next in the area. read more

Super friendly, super hospitable, super entertaining folks. Great cut. Color didn't look a whole lot like the picture I brought in but I ended up liking it anyways :) wine and mimosas ! read more
