Kiss Salon for blowouts

I never received compliments on my hair until I started going to Nunzio four years ago. Now I get them all the time. He is a master colorist with an eye for the extra details that add dimension to the color and style so it stands out. The staff at Kiss Salon are also great and very welcoming.
Luxurious experience from the moment you step foot in the door —the team is so caring and passionate. I love it all!!!
Excellent blowout by Aaron. I will be back.
Aaron at Kiss gave me the best blow out of my life! I booked with him for a wedding and honestly, my blowout still looks incredible 3 days later. I need whatever Turkish hairbrush he used! And the hair was was relaxing and incredible.
Abigail was kind, patient, and made my hair look amazing for a black tie event!
Aaron/Harun is an excellent hairdresser and colorist, i travel across town to see him. The salon is also excellent with superb service and clean facilities.
I came to dc for a trip and needed to get a haircut and I was presented with none other than the amazing Nakia. Nakia made sure that everything was good from simply cutting my hair to giving me tips on how to maintain great hair and the conversation was so great and natural. Nakia showed very great energy and made…
I cannot recommend Maria Fratus at Kiss Salon enough! I came to her feeling self-conscious because my hair had thinned noticeably due to GLP-1 medication. From the very first appointment, she took the time to listen, explain options clearly, and create a plan to help my hair look natural, full, and healthy again.…
Aaron is amazing! He gives the best blowouts—smooth, sleek, and in record time!
Abigail does such a fantastic and professional job! I have been to her multiple times and highly recommend her. I've had her do the following services and was happy with all of them: blowout's, highlights, dusted my ends (trim), layers, nails, and recommendations on products. She's very kind and a great person to talk to.
I absolutely love this salon! I’m a blonde and I only trust Jin with my hair! She’s so talented and have gotten so many compliments on my newly highlighted hair!
I’m a dirty blonde who loves a golden balayage, and when Aaron left The Wharf to work at Kiss Salon, I followed him— because he is an absolute legend! No matter the occasion, I always look like I just walked off the red carpet every time I leave his chair. I am so grateful to have booked him at Bella Moda at The…
I followed Jin from Georgetown to Kiss in Foggy Bottom due to her world class bob and balayage skills. She keeps my cut sharp and stylish, iterating with the trends and seasons. She understands how to keep you looking professional and modern. The new products she uses for color at Kiss are amazingly gentle and luxe.…
This salon is very professional and provides excellent services. I recommend it (and especially Dmitri) to everyone!!
Victoria is amazing! I love the color and how quick the balayage service is without compromising on the quality. This is my go-to place whenever I’m in DC!
Paul is a master. Every cut perfect, every color and highlight done masterfully. It’s all done with artistry.
Victoria does my highlights and haircut and does such an amazing job every time!! I have never been to a better salon or had a better experience! Highly recommend!!
This salon is top tier. Victoria is the BEST! She is excellent for blondes - highlights and balayage, I leave the salon feeling confident yet it looks natural. It's a true treat to come here. She also is so kind and fun, which makes you want to come back even more! I have had multiple people compliment my hair since coming here.
Victoria is the bomb! She goes to great lengths to make her clients happy. I have very difficult hair to blow out and she surpasses all my expectations. Victoria and her salon, the Kiss Salon is a treasure in the West End.
First time at Kiss Salon and had a fantastic experience. Jean Claude did amazing blonde highlights. He took the time to chat with me and understood what I wanted. I forgot to sign up for a blowdry online and Brandon squeezed me in which was so nice! Love this place and will be back
Dimitri is the best. He always does a fabulous job with my haircut and highlights. My hair comes out to so great each time I see him.
Absolutely the best hair salon experience. Brandon really gives a thoughtful review of what your hair needs, and the shampooing is glorious.
Jean Claude is an AMAZING hairstylist. I have been going to him for 9 years and he always does a fantastic job on my cut, color, and style. Kiss Salon is professional, clean, and everyone is so friendly. I can't recommend this salon or Jean Claude enough. I have never been disappointed in a single service from him…
Jean Claude worked magic on my DIY color! Amazing staff and beautiful salon. Will definitely be going back. Thanks Jean Claude!
