Excellent haircut, and I'm very happy with the stylist's work. However, I was a little taken aback by the overall salon experience. There was hair on the floor that clients had to step over to reach styling stations, and some of the interactions among staff felt unprofessional. As a customer, I don't particularly want to hear inside jokes or staff conversations while I'm trying to relax. When I'm spending this amount of money on a haircut, I'm looking for an upscale, clean, and relaxing environment. The haircut itself was excellent, but the overall atmosphere didn't quite match that expectation. read more

I used to really enjoy coming to this salon, but unfortunately my recent experiences have been very disappointing. The last few times I've paid $100 for a cut and style, my hair still felt dirty after the wash, like the product wasn't rinsed out completely. On top of that, the haircuts themselves have been uneven and not what I asked for. Most recently, one side (the left side) of my hair was over an inch longer than the other (the right side) and the layers in the back were choppy and poorly blended. I actually had to purchase my own scissors to fix it at home, which is not something I should ever have to do after paying this much for a professional haircut. I've tried giving the salon multiple chances and have seen different stylists, but the issues have been consistent. While the staff is friendly and scheduling is easy, I don't believe the quality of service matches the price. For $100, I expect a clean wash and an even, well-done haircut and unfortunately, that hasn't been my experience here. read more

Lori is wonderful! Great service, great haircut, I will make this my new favorite haircut place

I absolutely loved how April did my hair for my wedding! She offered a hair trial, which I initially declined, but then decided to do last minute. She assured me that I did not need one for the hairstyle I wanted, and she was right, as it was perfect on the first try! I will absolutely use April again. I got married on a catamaran in the Chesapeake Bay and my hairstyle was still gorgeous when I got off the boat 6 hours later! I highly recommend April for any of your hairstyling needs! read more

Kayley always takes great care of me. Moved to Delaware and hair salons were terrible! Glad to be back!!!

Eric Kaufman only does a good job if he feels like it. He gives me uneven haircuts. He thinks he can get away with it. I'm done with him.

I'm 66 yrs old and needed to try someone new for highlights. My daughter recommended Vaughan Diann. I had read positive reviews for Danielle and decided to give her a try. I was very nervous since I've used the same person for 5 yrs but Danielle did a great job! The highlights turned out as I had hoped, very natural looking and my hair is not dry feeling. I'm very happy with the results. read more

My daughter got an appointment here with Jordan for highlights and they came out really nicely! Definitely recommended, there was not a long wait at all to be seen and the color came out beautifully! read more

*Response to owner following my "rant" No,not just my time was wasted - months of waiting for my hair to grow out and money spent to put in extensions after a terrible haircut that caused a lot of frustration. with a response like the one you just gave,its no wonder women walk out of your salon looking and feeling awful! It starts from the top read more

I was getting my curly hair colored for the first time. Danielle did an amazing job with the highlights and she was very kind. Everyone working was welcoming and helpful! read more

Krista is AMAZING!!!! From color/highlights & haircut she always does a beautiful job! Her color and cut techniques are up to date and I always have a fun time when I go to the salon & always leave feeling great! read more

My navy child loved to chic salon, being around non- military compliant hair cuts. The technician was able to give my daughter a good cut.

My new, favorite place in Annapolis to have my hair cut. My favorite hair stylist, Alexander has moved here. This is a class place at a reasonable rate and wonderful space. The place is very well lighted, friendly and just flows well. I like it. Great location on Bestgate Road if your coming from anywhere near Annapolis. read more

I LOVE this salon. All the staff are professional, friendly, helpful, and courteous. The stylists are next level. The owner, Leslie, has been doing my hair for years. I moved to Arizona for eight years, and when I moved back to Maryland, I didn't hesitate for a second to find Leslie and go to her salon. I drive an hour and 15 minutes from Frederick to Annapolis to see her and also Roosevelt who is excellent with curly hair! You can't go wrong here. read more

Great salon for consistently good coloring and styling! Recently had a balayage/babylights and cut with Kaley (@kaleyweakleyhair) and was so impressed! She took the time to understand exactly what I was and wasn't looking for (cut, color, etc) and really friendly! Hair looks great several weeks later and her blending is so good, I can let it grow before needing a touch up! The price is worth the service. Excited to try more of their spa services next! read more

The salon is nicely decorated. Megan is very personable. I will go back to her in the future. She recommended getting a massage by their masseuse. I'll probably be returning soon for a massage and lash lift. read more

This is THE place to go in Annapolis for a curly cut. I used to drive into DC and pay three times more and it took forever. Katie was perfect. She listened to my request, gave me exactly what I wanted. I never like my haircut the same day, but today was different! Thank you, Katie! What a great find! read more

The salon is nice and definitely stays up with trends and technology of the industry. You can tell that people at the top of their game work there. The woman I worked with was lovely, but didn't deliver what I was asking for at all, and for what I paid I was disappointed. I booked a balayage and showed a few reference photos of what I was after (some notes of auburn to be put in). But my biggest request was for natural subtlety- I don't do well with upkeep and really didn't want an obvious root. My hair was lightened so much and then toned... and I tried to like it but when I got home I just couldn't deal. I'm a natural brunette and when I put my hair up, I had pieces that looked like a silvery pastel pink. I called back that night and made an appointment and went back to the same person. I'm all for giving someone a second opportunity. The solution was to again tone it. This left me a bit darker, but still ultimately had pink under tones, and the toner faded out in a few weeks. As my hair grew that brightness grew in a pretty straight and noticeable line that I've since had corrected at another shop. Everyone was really pleasant, and I appreciated that stylists time, but like I said, for what I paid, the results were extremely far from my expectations given that I provided photos of what I was after. read more

Shout out to Katie P for the best short sassy haircut ever! She listened and delivered! Thank you Katie! Love love my hair!

Leslie the owner has been doing my hair before she opened up Vaughan Diann. I would follow her across the world if I had to! The salon is clean inviting and always expanding and changing. The staff is always friendly and professional and makes you feel special with offering delicious beverages and being super kind. I'm always recommending the salon to my local friends and clients. They have the best stylist in town, all have their own specialties from extensions, balayage, highlights, working with all types of hair textures and so on. Just jump on their GI and see for yourself! read more

I came here after seeing all the excellent reviews and I am so glad I did! I tried somewhere new, to me, about two months ago and got an absolutely botched haircut. I was so anxious to try another new place after my hair grew out a little but my stylist, Danielle, made me feel so comfortable and listened to my concerns and made my hair look a million times better, I could not be happier! I will definitely be coming back for my next haircut and would recommend to anyone in the area. read more

I honestly love when it's time to get my hair done because spending the day at Vaughan Diann is such a wonderful experience, everything from how welcoming and hospitable the staff is to the five star services, and not to mention the atmosphere and energy of the salon makes it such a fun day of pampering. read more

Calling all curly hair girls! Roosevelt is an absolute master! Watching him work was like watching magic happen, especially for a girl who is finally embracing her curls instead of straightening them every day. He had great guidance on how to care for them and took his time making my hair look perfect! THANK YOU! read more

I love this salon! All the hair stylists I've been to have been amazing. I have been going for three years and love it. I have blond hair and they do incredible color cut extensions and styling. read more

The owner of the salon, Leslie, has been doing my hair for over 20 years. In addition, I have been seeing Christina for facials and waxing for nearly just as long. Beyond their expertise, is the overall experience of coming to Vaughan Diann. It's a beautiful salon and everyone is consistently friendly - from the front desk staff, to the stylists, and shampooists. I have sent a number of friends their way and no one has yet to have a negative experience. I feel special when I come to the salon and it's the little things that make a difference. The fact that I am immediately offered a glass of wine while I wait or get my hair done is a gesture that I appreciate. I highly recommend Vaughan Diann. read more

Leslie Rivera-Silva, one of the owners of Vaughan Diann, has been doing my hair for almost 10 years. I have coarse curly hair and Leslie has always been eager to work with me, try new things and take risks. My hair has been short, bobbed, blonde, red, curly and straight and it always looks amazing. Leslie has been in the industry for half of her life and her experience shows. She's patient and honest - if it won't look good, she'll tell you why and then deliver something better than you imagined. Vaughan Diann Salon and Spa is an absolutely gorgeous space.

Amazing service. Great space, talented hairstylists and estheticians. Def the best salon and day spa in Annapolis

I just moved to Annapolis and as any girl knows, finding a new hair stylist can be the hardest part of the move! I did a TON of research and looked at so many upscale salons, following them on social media to try to find the next person to whip my faded ombré back into beautiful shape. A lot of the salons that were upscale seemed stuffy and uncomfortable to me. I spend so. much. time. looking for my next stylist. I began following Kaley and realized she was the perfect fit for me and scheduled an appointment at the end of 2017. Kaley was wonderful! She was so sweet, easy to talk to and she really took the time to make sure that we were both on the same page about the final result of my color- to have an effortless balayage that is easy to maintain. Kaley did an amazing job and I enjoyed my cut and color. As long as I'm in Annapolis, I will be going to see Kaley! read more

Pressure you to pay 20 percent tip for an average service. Will not use their service again .

Really great salon. Easy same day appointment was available. Pricing was average - $70 for a haircut but that may be stylist specific.

My daughter had an appointment scheduled but couldn't make it so I called and asked if I could take her spot since it was the day of the appointment and I felt bad. They refused saying they'd give the appointment to one of her current clients. Who do they think pays for my daughter's cuts at their salon? Neither of us will be back. read more

I recently had my mother visit with me from the UK for several weeks. My mother suffers from a very serious illnesses. She has lost a lot of her confidence in her looks and how she is perceived by others. With my daughters wedding approaching, I wanted her to feel good about herself and so she decided she would begin by getting her hair styled in the hopes it would make her feel better. We met with Heather Randolph at the Vaughan Diane Salon. Heather's patience, talent and professionalism gave my mom exactly the confidence that she needed. She came out of that appointment looking amazing with exactly the hairstyle that she had hoped for. Heather took the time to listen, learn and care enough about my mom's condition to do that for her and we cannot thank her enough. read more

I have had several very favorable comments on my hair since Cindy cut it. I'm very pleased with the service. Cindy was knowledgeable and personable. The salon is lovely and relaxing. I wasn't looking for a cheap haircut I was looking for a good haircut at a reasonable price and this is what I got at Vaghan Diann. read more

This place is amazing. It's a beautiful high end salon offering many amenities. I happened to be there on their third birthday, so they had food and drinks as well as some booths selling jewelry. While I waited for my hair to process I was able to browse and snack. My hair was done by Heather and I couldn't be happier. She did an amazing job with my color it came out better than I could have imagined! Definitely recommend! read more

I tried this salon for the first time in July 2019 and had a fantastic experience. Roosevelt Oxendine was my designer/stylist. I say designer because, as a new client, he took the time to study my hair (it's curly and it can be straight), its' texture (fine), my face and we discussed what I wanted in conjunction with my lifestyle. Roosevelt knew how to deal with the type of hair I have and gave me an excellent hair cut AND style that I can wear both curly and straight without a lot of time/effort. He is also very calm, straight forward, listens and communicates effectively. I'll be returning to Roosevelt next to do my color. He has earned my trust and confidence in his talent and professionalism. read more

Heather is amazing! She listens to your vision and nails it every time! Patient, professional, friendly & fun ... what more could you want?!? The entire salon is wonderful, you come to feel like family. Highly recommend!! read more

This is a very nice salon that I have come to for both hair and brow services. April does an amazing job with hair color! I've been very happy with my balayage highlights both times I've seen her. I appreciate the cleanliness of the salon and all the steps they've taken during COVID-19 to ensure safety for staff and clients (lots of partitions, mask wearing, temp checks, hand sanitizer, etc). I do wish the salon was a bit more upfront with their pricing. For example, I didn't realize that shampoo and blowdry are not included in a color service, so was surprised by the extra $46 charge. I think just being more clear, either on their website, or having the stylist let you know upfront, would help. I'm not sure how you're supposed to get a color service without getting a shampoo and blowdry apparently the blowdry is included with a haircut, so not sure why not with the color. Either way, nothing on their website indicates either in terms of what is included versus what isn't (just vague "pricing starts at...") so definitely get clarification when you're booking about what you'll be billed. read more

I originally went to Glow salon where Christina did my eyebrows. then when she moved to Vaughan Diann I immediately followed her there. I only will let her wax my brows because she doesn't do them too thin. She is the best! read more

Absolutely the best. I have been a client of Leslie for at least 4 years - EXCELLENT - and a wonderful place to unwind! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

In time service and very friendly staff. I'm glad to have found the salon even though it is a bit out of the way for me and in the middle of nowhere. read more
