Melek did such an amazing job! Great experience :)
Hello Shraya! Thank you for your kind words, we hope to see you again soon!
Always come here for my blowouts and treatment. Melek has been doing the prettiest blowouts for me for 2 years now, always looks so good!! Definitely recommend coming here.
Hello Omaya! We are glad to hear you had a good experience with us, we hope to see you again soon!
Luis is heaven-sent! As a type-B bride, I was panicking only two months away from my wedding day trying to find a hair and makeup artist who was talented yet affordable. I stumbled upon Illusions, and Luis was happy to take on not only my hair & makeup but also some of my friends and family as well. He exceeded my expectations in all areas and will now be my stylist forever! <3
Hello Claire! We are so delighted to have been a part of your wedding day! We hope to see you again soon!
I had a very disappointing experience here and will not return. I was scheduled for a Brazilian Blowout, but when I arrived for my appointment, the salon couldn’t even locate the correct product needed for the treatment and asked me to reschedule. I understand that things can go wrong, so I was happy to be flexible and agreed to reschedule. They offered to give me a blowout in the meantime, which I accepted. However, the blowout was terrible and left my hair looking worse than when I walked in. An absolute waste of my time and energy.

Luis is great to work with, he is very patient with talking you through consultations, and does an excellent job with balayage and highlights.
Luis is an artist! Thank you for the great review, Shelby!
Melek is the best hair stylist ever! She makes my vision come true every time, and is so kind and thoughtful. I was someone who dreaded hair cuts and now I come almost every month!! Literally could not recommend her more.
Hello Noemi! We are glad to hear you enjoyed your time with us, we hope to see you again soon!
I highly recommend Luis! He specializes in blonde coloring and highly values hair health. Each appointment we discuss my personal hair goals and he customizes each session to make sure we are always making progress to meet them.
Thank you for the good review, we are glad you had a great experience with Luis!
I’m new to Washington and had been looking for a hair salon where I could feel comfortable and confident, especially for my hair color. After a lot of searching, I chose Amanda based on her profile and the services offered on the salon’s website, and I’m so happy I did! The whole team was so welcoming and attentive, even with my daughter there. Amanda was amazing, she really listened to what I wanted, took her time, gave me great advice, and respected my request exactly. I felt completely comfortable and in good hands throughout the appointment. Thank you, Amanda and the whole team! I’m very happy with my hair and already looking forward to coming back !

Melek did an excellent work. My hair had a bad cut and she knew how to do her job well. I am delighted with my haircut.
