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.
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.
Luis saved my hair! My hair is pretty damaged and has lots of breakage. My hair has also been thinning, I came in for some k tip extensions and treatment. Everyone was sweet and the service was amazing!!
Luis is the best that there is!!! I’ve received the most phenomenal haircuts from him (layers, curtain bangs, etc.) and he’s really only person that’s been able to achieve my into pics/match exactly what I’ve wanted — Couldn’t recommend him enough!!🤍
Illusions is a wonderful hair salon! And Ghorkem is a wonderful hair dresser. I have been coming here for years and highly recommend it!
This place is great and calming. Gorkem has created an incredible salon that has outstanding services but it feels like family not a cold sterile fancy salon. He listens to his customers and does exactly what they ask for no surprises. I’m so lucky to have him as my stylist.
I had my haircut for the first time at Illusions of Georgetown with Melek. She was great at listening to what I wanted but also offered suggestions on what would work best for my hair, which I really appreciated! I have long straight hair and needed a refresh and Melek definitely helped with that!
Got a haircut with Melek and had a great experience! She was so friendly, took the time to understand exactly what I wanted, and made sure I was happy with the final result. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Me encantó la experiencia con illusions! Vine a un corte rizado con Luis y fue espectacular! Me explicó todo y me asesoró para tener el mejor corte junto a él ! Recomiendo mucho la experiencia con Luis
Illusions of Goergetown is ALWAYS my go to hair salon! Gorkem does AMAZINGGG with my balayage and knows how to put a smile on my face each time I come! I always get compliments after he does my hair! The salon also has a garage with valet parking, so i'm not struggeling to look for parking before my appointment on…
Genuinely this is the best haircut of my life. I booked with Gorkem and I can see why he’s so booked and busy! Never in my life has someone paid so much attention to the details and been so honest with me about what I need. I called my sister right after and she told me she’s never seen my hair look better, so!! I will absolutely be returning.
I’ve been going to Illusions for nearly 10 years and have worked exclusively with Josh Le the entire time. Across well over 100 appointments, I’ve never once been disappointed with the results. Even after moving from DC, I still make the trip to see him, that alone says everything. Illusions offers excellent service…
Melek is the best! She put so much care and attention into my haircut to get it exactly the way I wanted it to look
Luis is an amazing stylist at Illusions! It is all in the details for Luis, he is so careful and diligent when cutting and styling my hair. I would highly recommend him for a cut and blow dry, I always leave happy with my hair!
Melek styled my hair and it is absolutely fabulous! I will definitely be coming back here. Everyone is so sweet!
Melek did an AMAZING job on my hair!! Both the cut and the styling. Plus she was so sweet and gave me such good advice on upkeep. Definitely coming back!
I had an excellent experience with my stylist (Rissel). They truly listened to what I wanted and delivered even better results than I expected. The attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly attitude made the entire visit outstanding. I highly recommend their services!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I absolutely love going to Illusions in Georgetown! The staff is always friendly, welcoming, and attentive to my needs. I especially love seeing Rissel — she’s been doing my hair for over 10 years and is truly a curly hair expert. She always knows exactly how to cut and style my curls so they fall…
I’ve been coming to Gorkem for more than three years! He is the best colorist and hairstylist I’ve ever been to. They are extremely customer focused and I’ve never had a bad experience. He even cut my toddlers hair because I was saying how bad the haircut he got was. Now my husband goes to him as well! It’s an…
I love going to Illusions of Georgetown. I always get the best haircut from Görkem and get the best advice on what’s best for my face shape or product recommendations for my hair type.
