Gaby immediately made me feel comfortable and listened to what I had in mind for my hair. She was incredibly patient even with my thick hair elongating the work required. I highly recommend you go see Gaby and have your hair done by her!
I have been going to Alyssa at Inizio for years, and - I mean the pictures speak for themselves, right?! (And they’re unedited y’all!) She's a genius with color, including and especially blonde. She is even styling my hair for my courthouse wedding ceremony - like she is THE BEST! Alyssa is not only a master of…
TLDR: Loved my experience here and would absolutely recommend anyone with natural type 4 hair see Chevelle. I booked a silk press and cut with Chevelle for last Saturday. The young woman at the front desk was very friendly and I think I waited less than 1 minute for Chevelle to come out and welcome me. They took my…
Chevelle revived my hair! (For background, I have curly 3A hair and was in the process of getting it healthy again but all of that was undone by a different stylist elsewhere. I also would normally just contact the stylist to rectify issues but I didn't want to risk anymore damage. My hair had lots of banding,…
This salon is awesome. They are experts and always make you feel welcome like an old friend. Seriously, they know what they are doing and you will look and feel amazing.
It took me 6 months after moving to the DMV to try a salon, and I'm glad I waited until I found Inzio! Chevelle is nothing short of a magician - wish I'd thought to take before & after pictures. I have long, thick, coarse, wavy hair, and she knew just what I needed; I walked out with smooth, beautifully shaped…
I recently got my hair cut with Elena and I absolutely love the results!! I have curly hair and I'm quite picky about it when I go to get a cut, but she did exactly what I asked for. I will definitely be coming back!
This is a friendly place. Great online booking experience with text and email reminders. I see Alyssa for my cut and color. Love her! I’ve also seen Elaina for color. My hair looks great. I get lots of compliments!
Inizio is a great salon! I had been looking for a good salon in DC for a while before finding Inizio and have now been going there for several years. All of the stylists and staff are kind and friendly. You can tell they all love what they do & they care a lot about their clients. The salon itself is always clean.…
I love this place! Everyone is so friendly and talented! Special thank you to Elena who always makes sure my hair is perfect!! Cannot recommend this place enough!
I got hair extensions for the first time and I was in absolute shock at how perfect and realistic it looked. Camelia did an absolute amazing job and I will be going back to her from now on! I am almost hesitant to tell you guys how amazing her work is as I want her all to myself! 3 days after graduation and my…
Had the BEST experience here!! I had a stylist named Alyssa and she really took my hair to the next level. I was able to give her a vague idea of what I wanted, and she made it better than I could have imagined. The products she used smelled great, I loved the cleanliness and vibe of the salon, and I looked…
I have been seeing Elena as my stylist and colorist for more than 10 years. I would follow her to the ends of the earth. And I am not alone. She is great with color and curly hair she really takes time with her clients to make sure they are happy.
I have been coming to see Chevelle for over 6 years now. She is a fantastic stylist, who knows how to work with my very curly hair. She listens to my requests of how I want my hair to look and always delivers! Visits to see Chevelle are always a highlight on my calendar, as I leave feeling fantastic about how my hair looks!
