This review is for Sera…read more I completely understand that a stylist's time is valuable, and I know it's frustrating when clients are late. I also understand why my appointment needed to be rescheduled. My issue is not with the policy, it's with how I was treated. I was made to feel like an inconvenience from the moment I walked into the salon. I had a 12:45 p.m. appointment and called before leaving home to let the salon know I was running about 10 minutes late, which is their stated grace period. The receptionist told me she would let Sera know. At 12:56 p.m., when I was literally one minute away from the salon, I received a call saying Sera could no longer see me because I was late, and she had back-to-back clients. While I was disappointed, I understood. I asked if I could still come in briefly to speak with Sera because I wasn't even sure I needed a full highlight service, and the receptionist agreed. When I arrived, Sera immediately told me I needed to reschedule and seemed unwilling to discuss my hair beyond commenting that the back was "really dark" and explaining that she had returning clients scheduled after me. She didn't seem to know or care that I was a returning client. Sera had done my hair in February, and I came back because I had really liked her work. Not recognizing me in and of itself is not a big problem--I know a lot of people sit in her chair--but it made the interaction feel impersonal and left me wondering if she'd even prepared for my appointment. I was fully prepared to work with Sera and the receptionist to find another date and time that fit both of our schedules. Instead, both were unhelpful, dismissive, and rude. This experience was especially difficult because I have pretty severe alopecia areata that, thankfully, is now well controlled with medication, allowing me to grow most of my hair back. That said, I wore a wig for five years after losing most of my hair, so finding a stylist I trust is still an incredibly vulnerable and anxiety-producing experience. Every time I see someone new, I have to explain my hair loss and why I prefer a lived-in color that doesn't require overly frequent trips to the salon. I chose to return to Sera because I thought I had found someone I could continue seeing. Instead, I left feeling embarrassed, dismissed, and genuinely upset. I walked out of the salon, called my husband, and cried like a reprimanded little girl. I am a 35-year-old grown-ass woman. Policies are important, and I respect them. Kindness and professionalism are just as important. Had the situation been handled with empathy and respect, I would have happily rescheduled. Instead, I left feeling less like a person and more like a time slot or a dollar sign. It seems like Sera may have enough clients that turning one away isn't a big deal, but I was respectful, cooperative, and ready to work with her to find another appointment. I deserved that same courtesy and respect in return.

Over the past five years, I have regularly visited Japanese hair salons in Los Angeles, New York City, and Boston while traveling frequently. In those experiences, even when a haircut did not fully match my preferred style or length, the technical quality was consistently strong, and any adjustments were handled professionally. Unfortunately, this experience was very different. One of the defining characteristics of a Japanese haircut is the smoothness, softness, precision, and careful organization of the layers. In my case, the cut lacked those qualities and appeared uneven and poorly structured (the photo from the back). I was also disappointed by the salon's management. Based on my experience, the overall operation and quality control did not reflect the standards typically associated with Japanese salons. Update (May 2026): Over the past 4 years, I have been with my Japanese hair stylist in New York. I returned to the salon to see Keiko because I was hoping to find a long-term stylist in Washington, DC. I had not had my haircut for 7 months prior to that because I delivered a baby in December 2025. Ozuki appeared to be one of the few salons in the area offering Japanese hairstylists. Immediately after the appointment, the haircut looked good due to the styling and blow-dry. However, within a few days, the shape became difficult to manage and appeared increasingly unstructured. The photo on my ID, taken approximately three weeks after the haircut, reflects how the cut settled over time. In contrast, the Japanese haircuts I have received elsewhere typically maintain their shape and balance for several months. Despite my concerns, I scheduled another appointment six weeks after the first haircut with Keiko because I genuinely hoped the issues could be corrected and that I could establish a relationship with a local stylist. At the same time, I let the management know that my haircut had bad form and hope that it can be resolved at the second appointment. Unfortunately, my interactions with management, Liz, were once again disappointing. Rather than addressing the concerns constructively, the response left me with little confidence that the salon could deliver the level of quality I was seeking. This is the first Japanese salon where I have repeatedly had unsatisfactory experiences. Based on the consistency of those experiences, I am not convinced that the salon operates at the standard typically associated with Japanese hairstyling.

They have excellent customer service and they cater to their customers' needs. Overall, they keep a really good time schedule and they make sure that you're in and out in a certain amount of time that they tell you as the estimate. I do also appreciate that they respect their customers time by doing this. I love that they have a point of sales system where you can pay by tap and that they don't really handle any cash, which is a good sign. Overall, this is the best hair salon in DC that I'm aware of. I trust them doing my hair, my daughter's hair, and I have referred people to come here. Thank you ladies!

Very clean establishment They offer coffee, tea, or water to guests Festive decor with some halloween candy at the front desk lol how cute! My services were done by Sonya and I'll say this, you need to book a trichologist! If you're suffering from hair loss, hair damages, dermatitis, and scalp issues, book someone certified to not just style your hair but customize the right care for your hair. Sonya did just that and she was sweet, understanding, not scornful of my hair condition, and really made a dull hair shine again. As someone battling dermatitis, I booked a cut, moisture hydration treatment, and scalp exfoliating detox masks and honey...this service was just what I needed. Sonya carefully explained everything to me from things do refrain from if my scalp became flared and how to manage it in between. I'm so relieved to have found her because my hair was missing this level of care and support. I'm scheduled to return soon and cannot wait to continue this journey to healthy hair with a dynamic stylist. Book the appointment and if you need special attention to the state of your hair, book Sonya-you won't regret it.

Had been dying my hair bright cherry/fashion red for two years and was over it. Came in for a color…read moreconsult and they said I needed a double process bleach out--which I was SUPER nervous about because my hair lifts really easily, would have preferred to start with a bleach bath but was told it wouldn't be enough (several hairstylists I've spoken to since have clarified that's where they'd have started), but I was super adamant that I absolutely did not want to be brown, and therefore was willing to accept any damage in my hair to get what I wanted (a vivid copper/ginger). I was quoted $700 for the full appointment. Came in and on the day of my appointment, after the first bleach, they were able to lift me to a super light platinum blonde--the perfect canvas--but I could tell my hair integrity was pretty compromised after so I asked if we had to go in with bleach a second time because there was less than a quarter inch of regrowth at the time that didn't bother me and would just prefer to gloss over if possible without doing more bleach damage. Stylist said sure. So tell me why I walk out with the one color I was trying to avoid--the one color I was willing to put my hair through a full bleach out to avoid?? Brown. I've included inspo pictures, the color they lifted me to? I was devastated. I tried to give myself time to sit with it, wondering if I was just seeing things but called shortly after to express my disappointment and said I'd receive a call the next day. No call back. Instead, I had to reach back out. I then received an email that said there's nothing they can do and that instead I can shampoo it a few times and they can try to gloss it. What?? My hair is too dark at this point? Gloss doesn't lift color, and I didn't get what I paid for. I expressed my disappointment and eventually the owner called me and tried to gaslight me that it was my fault that my hair wasn't brighter because I didn't let the stylist do a second round of bleach I'm sorry--WHAT? Any stylists out there want to look at the color they lifted me to and tell me that same thing? Make it make sense. Still not sure if the owner and I were disconnected, or if she hung up on me, but I called back later to get in touch. Then I wrote an email. Gave them a whole month to respond and avoid embarrassing themselves with this review and here we are. Oh--to top it off--I was still charged for a double process bleach even though we only did a single process. Horrible customer service, horrible hair expertise, wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy.

I will close my eyes during haircut and open them after blow-dry to see the magic. I immediately love the woman i see in the mirror. He is very kind, listens to you but will advise against a look that will not look the best on you. He cares about how the client looks and the way they will look after. He also cares about the health of your hair suggesting, a haircut when ends are damaged. I would be lost without him. Finally, everyone at the salon is very nice.
