Salim is without a doubt the best hairdresser in the city. Very professional, talented and a super nice person. Highly recommend you book your appointment today. You won’t be disappointed.
Salim is one of the best in the city. He has totally changed my hair and it’s never been healthier. The best part he knows intuitively what to do with my hair and it’s always easy to manage. He not only excels at women’s hair but is also the only person my two boys (teenager and elementary school) and fiance trust…
Salim gave me the bob haircut and color of my dreams! Amazing service — highly recommend.
Salim was amazing! Gave me so much confidence with my hair. Definitely recommend!
Had a great experience with Salim - I have dark Asian hair and he was able to make it a beautiful golden blond ombré! It’s exactly what I wanted :)
The best haircut and color in DC. Salon staff are friendly and professional. I highly recommend Salim.
Salim is the best. Great styles for the whole family. My two boys and I all look forward to a great cut and overall experience. Can’t recommend him enough.
Really appreciated Salim’s attention to detail and care. Thank you.
Best hair stylist in DC! Very knowledgeable about thick and curly hair and my cuts always turn out great.
Just got an amazing hair cut it made my tin hair look full I’m glad I found Salim great conversation and a great haircut!!
Salim is so friendly and the environment is really nice. He is a very good hair stylist and he cuts hair very well.
Salim is the best stylist for short hair in the city! He uses many different techniques to shape the hair to your head. The hair is weightless and moves! I’m so glad he’s back to the salon!! If your, a short-hair person, you’ve got to go see him!
I have curly hair and I’ve been to Salim twice. Great cut and great conversation both times!
Wouldn’t go to anyone else to do my hair. Exceptional stylist with a heart of gold!
Salim is a personable and excellent hairdresser who does a great job with both cut and color. I highly recommend him!
Been going to Salim for 2+ years. Nothing but great things to say about him. Never going to anyone else!
I cannot stress enough, Saalim is one of the best hair stylists around. I’ve been seeing him for over a year now and will continue to as long as I am in DC. The quality and care, friendliness and conversations that Saalim provides is absolutely amazing. 10/10 Go book your appointment now!
I had my curly hair straightened and styled with Salim. Truly perfect! It is not easy to find someone who gets curly hair and Salim was very professional and helpful.
I don’t trust my highlights or haircut with anyone else. He’s the best in DC!
Salim is the best! After having my hair butchered by a few different salons in DC, I lucked out and found Salim. He is a lifesaver. And I can always count on compliments after a fresh cut.
Salim is an incredibly talented hair stylist. I love the way he explains to me what he is doing when cuts my hair and trims my beard and why. He also tailors his work to my specific hair type and face shape. I highly recommend!
