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…
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!!🤍
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 cannot possibly recommend Illusions of Georgetown enough — and particularly my stylist, Luis Ojeda. It was my wedding this weekend and the in-home hair stylist I’d booked to do my wedding day hair canceled on me 20 minutes before the appointment. They weren’t able to find a replacement stylist, so I was left…
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…
First, Luis is not a hairstylist. This man is the patron saint of silky hair. I walked in with hair that was giving abandoned bird’s nest; I walked out looking like a person who has her life together. San Luis de Illusions turned my frizz into silky-smooth art. Given how few nanoplastia options there are in the…
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 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’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.
I went to Melek for highlights. She was very sweet and professional, and I absolutely loved the results. Highly recommend!
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…
Rissel is doing my hair for my wedding! We’ve already done a trial and I feel so confidently about how it will turn out the day of. What more can you want?! Rissel is great at letting you know what will and won’t work for your hair and what the realistic outcome will be, which is so helpful when you’re deciding how…
Rissel has been my hairstylist for the past four years, and she never disappoints. She’s incredibly professional and always goes above and beyond. My hair looks and feels healthier after every visit. Highly recommend her!
Amazing experience with Suelene! I highly recommend her and the salon. It’s in such a good area too!
They are all high end professionals, friendly and people with high values. The atmosphere is very nice and the services are provided in a fast manner
Suelene is the best ! The people are so great here. I have recommend my friends and anyone in the area to come. You come here to look good and feel good !
Went to illusions for the first time today. My hair was totally fried from bleach, delicate from hormonal changes, with an uneven color and severely grown out highlights. The online booking process was really simple. From the minute I sat down in Kayla’s chair, she made me feel at ease. Her understanding of my hair…
