This place has really gone downhill, since we lived here a few years ago. Came in for an appointment, barely greeted by receptionist. Receptionist appeared to be unsure of what was happening or just uninterested. Hair still on the floor from the night before, capes just thrown in the chairs where customers sit and the stations were a hot mess. My husband and I had booked appointments together at the same time, so that we could be finished together as we had other errands to run. Needless to say, the other staff member didn't show up for almost 20 minutes past our appointment time. I was finished long before my husband so I just sat and waited while he was getting finished. Never heard an apology for them being late or anything. They may do some great hair but I have to say the lack of customer service and the cleanliness of the salon leaves something to be desired. This is certainly not the quality of service I remember from years ago and certainly not what you would expect from a "high end" salon in the metro area. read more

I've been going to Tony for many years and he always gives me a 5-star cut and color. I asked him to make a recommendation and he suggested balayage. It turned out fantastic. One of my friends said it took 10 years off my face! read more

Randy at Studio Salon in Shirlington is the best hair stylist I have found in the area. He takes his time to give his clients the exact haircut they want and he keeps up-to-date with current trends and techniques. I have thick, unruly hair, and he makes me look like a million bucks every time. Highly recommend! read more

Rabika is amazing! She's the only person that I trust to color my hair. She really listens to you to make sure she understands what you want, but also makes sure that the color will work well with your skin tone, etc. read more

Spent a wonderful afternoon at studio salon and spa today! Randy once again knocked it out of the park with my color and high and low lights... and the cut is the best yet! He listens and gives great advice and the combination is amazing in a stylist. This visit I brought my daughter with me who is starting high school next week and a bundle of nerves. Randy recommended Jaimie as her stylist and he transformed my daughter in to a confident teenager who walked out of the salon beaming. He listened to her and what she wanted and recognized that "growing her hair" really meant make me look like a high school girl... and like magic he did it!! Uber talented stylists, great location, transforming!! read more

Reginald was really and friendly. He had my hair looking right for date night he also helped me pick out my outfit cause I was having trouble deciding. His spirit and customer service are Extraordinarily on point thanks for everything. If this one puts a ring on it it he definitely gonna be hooking me up for my weeding pictures. read more

I've been seeing Randy for a few years now for full highlights every 8 weeks or so. I followed him from his previous salon. I am pretty picky about my hair color and like it very blonde, but not platinum, and he gets it right every time. He is super knowledgeable and really personalizes the color and cut to each person. I trust him completely with my hair and let him make his own decisions or even experiment a bit on my own hair because I'm 110% sure I will love it. He's also hilarious and really fun to talk to! I HIGHLY suggest you see Randy for color/cut/anything. read more

This was my first time going to Studio Salon & Spa and I was anxious about getting highlights for the first time, fearing they would look artificial and chunky. When I expressed my concerns and doubts about getting highlights, my hair stylist Kambiz reassured me and told me that I was in good hands. I am so glad I listened because he did a wonderful job! The highlights look so natural and he has perfected the technique for sunkissed-looking hair. He also recommended the perfect hair cut for me, taking time to consider my face shape and natural wave in my hair. I love my new hair style and also appreciated the efforts made to reassure me. Thank you Kambiz! read more

My partner and I moved here last year and had been searching for a Salon. It was a painful first year with no luck and a few very bad stylists. Then we found Tony! He is just amazing. Great with both short and long hair as well as color. Great attention to detail and fun to work with. Staff are very nice. Highly recommended him and the staff. Ask for Tony! read more

Recently, I got a call back from the salon's marketing coordinator and they had offered to give me a free cut and highlights with the owner. I went in last week to get it done and I loved it! I will be going back for sure!! Thank you for the great customer service! read more

I followed my hair guru, Randy, to Studio Salon & Spa, and am so glad I did. Randy has been doing my hair for nigh upon 7 years now, and he is THE BEST. We do quite a bit to my hair... I mean, it's purple. Well, parts of it. That's on purpose, folks. Randy has ZERO fear of the latest hair technologies and trends, but always balances it carefully with what makes sense for me. He takes into account maintenance, lifestyle, health, habits (good and bad), and works with me to come up with something flattering and awesome looking. I literally have been stopped by people on three different continents wanting to know "Who does your hair? It's awesome!" At my own peril (he's going to be so popular, I may not be able to get an appointment one day!), I always let folks know that Randy's the guy. He's also a lot of fun, which helps, if you spend as much time in the chair as I do!! read more

Just moved to DC and came across this place during some intense internet searching for blonde colorists. I was very impressed by the reviews so I booked a color with Kambiz. It was the first time I was super thrilled about the end product. Even the few curls he threw in at the end were exactly what I had imagined. I hope to make this my regular salon read more

Randy is a hair miracle worker. I first came in with color in need of a serious fix, and walked out feeling like I finally looked like myself again for the first time in months! He knows the latest trends, and really takes the time to listen and learn what you're going for in a style. He makes it work in the best possible way for you. He instantly makes you comfortable and you can ask him questions and talk about why a style or color works or doesn't work. I haven't had this much fun going to a salon in a really long time. And with his advice, my hair is finally on the road to looking healthy and natural again. I've been in the DC area for about 6 years now, and I finally found someone I know I'll keep coming back to. :) Thanks Randy! See you soon! read more

Rebekah is phenomenal. Had a major hair cut - 8 inches. listened to what i wanted/was looking for and made it happen. It's pricey, but you're worth it! read more

I just finished getting my hair done by Randy and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! I was feeling blah, frumpy and needed a change, something to get rid of the stay at home mommy blues. I got exactly what I wanted! The color is gorgeous( which is something I was concerned with due to using box color), the cut is perfect, I literally couldn't ask for more. It's gorgeous and walking to my car random people even commented on how they liked my hair. So if you're looking for a great salon and an even better hairdresser, ask for Randy! read more

I went in yesterday and had an amazing experience with Randy Meadows. He is current on the latest techniques and has an artists eye for just the right colors for my hair and skin tone. I leave his chair feeling not just beautiful but more energized! Stop in and see Randy, you'll be happy you did! read more

My husband and I have been going to Randy for the past 3 years. Last year we moved from Arlington to Rockville and we still take the trip to Arlington to see Randy when it's time for a cut. Neither of us have ever left his chair disappointed! Last time I was in for a cut Randy also did a Keritin treatment. I was so pleased with how healthy and managable my hair was afterward, I felt like one of those chicks in the herbal essence commercials! read more

What little work they do is done well, I'll admit. However, I'm very displeased with the incomplete service I've now received twice. They rush their appointments and today, I left with wet hair and an apology that drying your hair is a separate appt and cost. Funny thing is i would have paid extra had i simply been told that was their (ridiculous) policy. Why would I come in to the salon for a chemical treatment and NOT want a blow dry?? I feel totally nickel and dimed, and it was not worth the high price tag at all. If you want them to use shampoo, make sure you ask for it specifically and be prepared to pay an extra charge for that. Unfortunate. read more

I have been salon hoping for past 2 years and stumbled across this salon one day and decided to give it a try. I think my days of salon hopping are over! I was booked with Tony and could not be happier. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do color wise and asked him for his recommendation. He knew exactly what would work best and he was spot on. If you are looking for a new stylist and want someone who is creative and personable, I highly recommend him. As far as cost, it was slightly less than I expected for the area which was an added bonus. read more

Had a great time at this salon, very friendly, welcoming... A friend of mine recommended Mallory and she did great with my haircut, def coming back, thanks. read more

After what seems like 50 zillion attempts to find a nail place that I like, I finally found a winner! I'd had a wretched experience at a place here in town where I asked for gel nails and she did them like acrylics (see Sugar House Spa), a place in Dover, DE where she did a neat job five days before my wedding but where the white french nail tips were, according to my fiance, "out of proportion" compared to the rest of my nail, and several attempts at finding places that did Gelish and Shellac properly. At last, I found a place right next door to me that did a GREAT job on my nails. It's actually a hair salon, but they do have a nail tech. Soo Lee did my fills on the outgrowth from my wedding manicure, and they are just beautiful. The only negative is that her English isn't great, so I wasn't sure if I was understanding her right, or if she was understanding me right. Plus, my acrylics were yellowed (I think b/c of the sunscreen I put on everyday during my honeymoon), so there is a clear line where you can see the old acrylics vs. the fills. But I got her to paint them with a light baby pink, so you can't see them that bad. They are shaped beautifully, the proportions are right, and even better, she didn't completely rip them off and start all over again! That makes me WAY happy! I'll be going back in 2 weeks for another fill. YAY for a great nail salon! read more

Went on the suggestion of a friend, and had a great experience. Joshua was my stylist and he was fantastic. Knew exactly the right color for me and cut my hair beautifully. I now have layers that lay correctly and frame my face perfectly! Thanks for a good experience. I will definitely be back! read more

I've been trusting Randy to style my hair for years, and I visited him recently at his new location, Studio Salon & Spa in Shirlington. It is a friendly salon and is super convenient, with nearby parking readily available. Randy is very knowledgeable about hair coloring and styling and is always on top of the latest techniques. I feel completely comfortable going to him with ideas and getting his feedback on what styles will work for my hair. I am always happy with the results! read more

Kambiz is the best colorist I have ever seen. Only person I would let color my hair. The salon is clean and very professional.

Randy Meadows is the best! I get my hair colored and cut from him and most recently, I got the American Wave done ( think beachy waves). He's very attentive and listens to what you want but also gives you his suggestions. I followed Randy from his previous salon to here. And everyone at studio salon is great - super friendly! read more

Randy Meadows is excellent at color and cuts. I highly recommend him! He also stays on top of innovations by attending classes and seminars. He manages his schedule well, too--important if you have a busy schedule and don't like waiting. read more

Kambiz is rude and mean. He treats clients as if he doesn't want the business and tries to tell them what he will provide, not what they requested when booking. The owner of the salon should be aware if not aware already read more

Kambiz is my hairstylist for the past 5 years now! He had a revolutionary influence on my hair the first time I visited him. My hair were damaged and he fixed it like I couldn't even imagine. He is the only person who, cuts, colors and style my hair. I recommended him to my co-worker and she absolutely loved her hair after. Kambiz is a professional and he knows what he is doing, he is amazing with highlights and if you have a party to go, he is gonna be your best stylist if you want to impress everyone in that party with your beautiful hair, you should make your appointment with Kambiz today before he gets fully booked! I live in Bethesda, Maryland for two years now. And it does worth the drive to go see Kambiz in Arlington. He is truly the best! read more

I made an appointment at Studio after an unsatisfactory "long hair to bob" cut at another Shirlington salon. I read through the stylists bios and made an appointment with Cody based on his credentials. After eleven years in various DC and Arlington salons I can say without hesitation that Cody is one of the best professionals in the area and I'm psyched to have him nearby. Cody listens, asks questions and takes his time making sure you're comfortable and satisfied. His chair-side manner is confident and overall reaches the perfect level of conversation/ relaxation. I was very happy with my initial cut and recently went back for a somewhat complex color appointment, and again was beyond impressed with Cody. He is Schwarzkopf trained and it shows. General salon comments- moderately priced for area, friendly staff that aren't overbearing or pretentious. read more

I have very curly hair that I like to straighten.. mallory did a great job today. I am very picky when having my hair cut. She never rushed and kept touching it up. She cared about the finished product. I'll be back. read more

Excellent service and personnel! Sharon has been my stylist for many years. Located in the village of Shirlington, there is parking behind the salon in a large parking structure. The staff regularly attend seminars to continually hone their skills. There is also a fair amount of privacy i.e. coloring services, shampoo are generally not visible to sidewalk traffic. Highly recommend read more

Randy has been doing my hair for over five years and not once have I ever been disappointed or felt it was just ok. I mean, there's a reason I left my old salon to follow him to his new location at Studio Salon and Spa! After every single appointment with Randy, I leave with a smile on my face, walk down the street with confidence, flip my hair, and feel happy! I have long, fairly curly hair and lots of it that I've colored for years. It's extremely important to me that my hair remains healthy and looks shiny and classy, not bleached and frizzy. Randy his highly skilled in his coloring techniques and takes the time to explain what products he uses on my hair and why. He offers recommendations but knows exactly what I like. He knows I like to be blonde, and we have a system down. Sometimes I want a full foil of highlights with some low lights, other times I feel like I just need a little push of brightness around my face so he'll do a face-framing with only blonde foils to get me through the re-growth period until my next visit. Yesterday, in addition to the usual bright blonde I like, he added a shade of blonde a little darker that gave me so much demension without doing a dark low-light. I absolutely love it. The point is, I can tell Randy what I'm in the mood for regarding color/cut, sometimes it depends on the season, and he just says "got it." I've had less experienced stylists do my hair in the past, but always saw an area in the mirror later where they messed up...like missing an entire spot near my roots. Girls who color know re-growth happens quicker than we like sometimes so to walk out of a fresh color with dark roots from the start annoys me. Randy pulls the foils tight and gets the color as close to the scalp as he possibly can. He also takes great care in pulling thin sections of hair rather than bug chunks, which give more of a striped looked, and he knows I don't like that. If you like a bolder contrast of color he'll be happy to do that for you, but I prefer a more subtle difference in the demensions. He will not take short cuts and takes great pride in his work. He's honest about what will work and what might not work for certain hair types and that I appreciate very much. Go see Randy. In addition to his talent, his personality is refreshing and he's a great guy. We always end up laughing about something. I always look forward to "hair day!" Thanks Randy! read more

Best salon in the area by far! While I'm a devoted fan of Jayne (amazing colorist and cuts), my friends go to a couple of the other stylists and they love them just as much. I check out the stylists and ALL of them do great work. I love the vibe of the salon (not the loud irritating chatter), complimentary water, tea etc., up to date mags (a must!), and individual TVs. These stylists are experienced professionals and I doubt you'd be disappointed-and i'm picky. read more

Randy cut and styled my hair and it looks and feels amazing! He was super thoughtful, considerate, and knowledgeable. I recently moved here and had been putting off cutting my hair (as often happens when you're looking for a new salon), but I can say that I plan on returning when I need my next haircut. The whole salon atmosphere and attitude was great. read more

Have been going to Kambiz for as long as I can remember - he does an amazing job!!! Highly recommend!

Jamie is a rock star!! He gave me the most beautiful blond and short textured cut. Jamie is a very talented and a great listener and spent the time to consult with me on my hair needs and and what look I wanted to achieve. He committed the extra time to ensure the blond color and cut we selected was complimentary to not only my olive skin tone but on my hair condition, lifestyle, face shape. Jamie is very in the know with the latest technologies and the most premium color and retail lines in professional hair care that are suitable for different types of hair. Jamie makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. I receive compliments on my hair on a daily basis. I highly recommend making an appointment with Jamie for all your cut and color needs. You will not leave disappointed. read more
