Edit: Since Google won’t let me leave another review, I’m adding to my original. A year later, and I still can’t recommend Yvonne and this salon enough. Each time I come, I know that I will be happy with the cut and color. Yvonne is highly knowledgeable, friendly, and makes sure that she understands what you want so…

This was my first appointment. I came to Yvonne with a case of a really bad hair box dye accident. She was able to completely transform my hair. Her assistant, Zianni did a wonderful job with hair wash, treatments and the blow out. Despite being an introvert, I felt very comfortable. The salon has a lovely…

Yvonne is unbelievably amazing for blondes, and that’s an understatement. I’ve had some bad experiences with stylists who didn’t understand that I have very fine hair and need someone who cares about the longterm. I move around a lot, and always find it challenging to book with someone experienced with ash blonde,…

Yvonne is fantastic! I’ve been to her twice now for blonde baby lights and each time has been exactly what I wanted. The color blends great and looks super natural like I asked for. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for a blonde colorist in the DC area.

Went to Hava for haircut and dye and she did an amazing job and was great during consultation. Best hair cut I’ve received in years, and I’ve now been going to her ever since. She helped me go from brown to red to black, helping to pick hues and tones that best suit me. Recommend her for all dye and cut needs!

I’ve been to this hair salon twice now,and I’ve had my hair dyed by the wonderful Carlos! He is the sweetest person and he does an excellent job. He got my color the exact way I wanted and gave me an excellent blow dry and the prices are pretty reasonable. I will definitely be going to him from now on.

Carlos Reyes is a balayage god! My hair always looks amazing and it can grow out for months while still looking perfect. I get compliments everywhere I go and I have sent multiple people here to fix other hairstylists' color. He also gives fabulous long layer cuts and is an all around great human. Highly recommend!
