Luis is great to work with, he is very patient with talking you through consultations, and does an excellent job with balayage and highlights.
i am so very happy i literally ran out of work in the middle of the day to ask a stranger where she got her hair done because that’s how i found rissel! i am a transplant from los angeles and had been with my hairdresser for 10 years before moving here. i went through about six stylists prior to coming upon rissel…
Very professional, attentive, and truly talented. Melek did an amazing job and understood exactly what I wanted. I’m very happy with the result and would definitely recommend her.
Melek did an absolutely amazing job on my hair! She listened to exactly what I wanted, explained every step with so much patience, and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. My hair has never looked this smooth, shiny, and healthy before. She truly has magic hands — talented, gentle, and very…
Melek is absolutely amazing!!! I have very thick, dark hair and she did a phenomenal job with highlights and a cut. I will definitely be going back to her!
Rissell has colored my hair for years. She is quite skilled, but also friendly, funny, easy-going, and creative.
I've been coming to Illusions for years. All of the hair stylists are amazing. I personally like Graham's work and find him incredibly talented, especially with cut and color.
Kayla is an artist! I’ve been going to her for the last 5ish years and I would follow her wherever she goes. She is great at color and haircut. We’ve done balayage a couple of times, and now highlights, and I’m always super satisfied with the results. She does a great job at understanding what you need and does a…
I came through illusions to get my hair bleached for a pageant I was competing in and not only did Gorkem and his team helped to style my hair but they also did amazing on turning my dark hair (that has been box dyed black too many times… and once using henna dye…) to a blonde shown in the pictures! I came again as…
I have recently moved to the DMV area from Richmond, VA and was in search of a new hair place. After going to Serkan I will look no further. He did an amazing job turning my warm tone highlights to a cool tone and gave me a great haircut as well. Everyone at the salon was so friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend making this your go to hair place!
I came in to redo my roots as a natural blonde and was charged 1.5x the amount for partial highlights and ended up leaving with brown and PURPLE tinted hair. When I asked for a refund they refused and only stripped the brown from my hair, leaving it the exact way it was before I came in. Don't come here.
I saw Gorkem for blonde highlights and a trim, and I knew right away that with his 14 years of experience he knew what he was doing. I'm absolutely thrilled with the way it turned out! He was also great about giving me tips for maintaining my hair after I left the salon. If you're looking for a place to get *great*…
Josh was great! Got highlights and a haircut done and will definitely be coming back, so sweet and professional. Love how it turned out!
Gorkem is amazing! He was able to recreate the looks I asked for. He gives me advice based off my complexion and my hair length. He always thinks of my hairs future and making sure we do what’s healthy too. I highly recommend him for all your hair needs! He knows what he’s doing and is always honest.
I love Illusions! William Brown is my stylist, and he does a great job with both cut and color. My entire family are clients, and we couldn’t be happier!
I have gone to a Illusions since I was a little girl. I highly recommend and receive compliments on my hair all the time! All of the stylists have been great in my experience.
I have been looking for my go to stylist since I moved to the DMV from the northeast in 2020, and after today I am confident I have found him! Jon at illusions has done exceptional work both times I scheduled appointments with him (once for highlights and once for balayage). I spend a lot of money on my hair, and I…
