I stopped in with Camelia on a five-day trip to D.C., and it was a wonderful experience! Excellent service and atmosphere. The cut and color exceeded my expectations as well — she made it work even with some stubborn semi-permanent dye I came in with. I would HIGHLY recommend booking with Camelia if you’re interested in fashion colors/styles!

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…
