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!!!
Jean Claude was amazing! He listened carefully to what I requested and perfectly executed what I wanted. Everyone there was warm and polite. The interior is spacious and well designed, and the process of booking and checking in was seamless. I strongly recommend Kiss Salon and will go there for my next hair cut.
I am an extremely particular person when it comes to my haircuts and styling. Aaron is an incredible hairdresser. He gave me the exact haircut I asked for and styled it to perfection. Can’t recommend enough. He’s amazing
Decided to try this place after seeing all of the glowing reviews, but I have never wanted to cry more after a hair appointment than I did on Thursday, June 25. I had a curly haircut and style appointment with Aaron at 11:30 am. I even called ahead to make sure that it was understood that I was getting both a…
Requested a simple haircut just to get rid of dead ends. I told Dimitri that layers in my (very straight and thin) hair always look choppy. He said he knew it wouldn't, but what do you know, it looks very choppy and unblended. Also cut my face framing way too short, so now it just looks bad. Very disappointed especially because it was very expensive.
A huge kudos to Abigail! I went in for a trim and was very impressed with how she was able to manage and style my long curly hair!
Abigail was kind, patient, and made my hair look amazing for a black tie event!
Wonderful staff. Modern cuts. Lots of positive feedback by other guests. 2 people in the fam going there. Great for both of us. Ask for Alex.
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…
Aaron was amazing. I have been skeptical of trusting people to cut my hair because of bad salon / haircut experiences BUT Aaron changed my mind . This was my first appointment with Kiss Salon and I was so amazed by my haircut. I feel like a brand new person ! Thank you Aaron!! Airbornediva
Alexandra is a wonderful stylist! Creative but attentive to your style.highly recommend!
Alex is such an incredible and detail oriented stylist!
Aaron is amazing! He gives the best blowouts—smooth, sleek, and in record time!
Jean Claude is the best hair dresser in town with the best stories ! I would look no further.
Scheduled a men’s cut with Jin. She did a fantastic job! She took a few minutes to go over what I wanted and made some recommendations for styling. Highly recommend Jin for men’s cuts. Her care and attention to detail is top notch!
Alex is a wonderful stylist new to Kiss who has been keeping my look fresh for many years. She listens to me and also helps me pick the best easy-care look. I constantly get compliments about my hair! The salon is beautiful too!
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.
If you’re looking for the best hair cut, style and color you’ve ever had, you have to have Jin as your stylist. She is amazing! I can hardly believe how great my hair looks. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
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.…
Alexandra has cut my hair for years. Recommend!
Maria F did such a wonderful job with my hair cut and color!! She cut my bangs exactly how I wanted and the color turned out beautiful. She went the extra mile by ordering champagne to the salon since they had just run out! And to top it all off, she made sure I had an Uber home so my hair didn’t get ruined, since…
Fantastic haircut,i’m75years old,which means I’ve had a lot of haircuts. Jean-Claude does the best:professional, customer oriented and a pleasure to be with.
Amazing haircut, highly recommend (especially after experiencing prior poor experiences at other salons) great experience all around!!
Brandon has been cutting my hair (very curly) for a few years now and he's amazing.
Love love love kiss! Victoria cuts and colors my hair and it always looks amazing. All of the salon staff are so kind and professional. Would 100% recommend for a haircut or color!
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.
Loved my experience with Brandon at Kiss Salon! I hadn’t had my hair cut in several months and the dry cut by Brandon was just what was needed. My curls have NEVER looked better. I will definitely return. I had recommendations from others with curly hair and I see why they recommend Brandon. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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.
Best salon! Jean Claude is amazing!
This was my first visit to Kiss Salon, and will definitely be coming back. The salon is beautifully designed, and Jean-Claude and his team ensure you have a memorable experience. Jean-Claude is very meticulous and took the time to customize my style to my hair growth patterns. Highly recommend!
6 stars!! My husband wants to re-marry me, I feel a million bucks, my hair hasn’t been compromised and is feeling lush and thick, I learnt heaps of tips and am extremely excited to continue my journey with Jean Claude! Kiss kiss xx !! Long strong hair here we come!!
Victoria is absolutely incredible, and I highly recommend her hair services! The salon is also very comfortable, and everyone is always very welcoming.
Great cut in friendly chic salon. Couldn’t be better. Jean- Claude is a master!
Brandon is an expert in what he does. I’ve been seeing him for over a year and he’s the only hairdresser I’ll have cut my pixie. You won’t be sorry going to Kiss Salon!
Absolutely the best hair salon experience. Brandon really gives a thoughtful review of what your hair needs, and the shampooing is glorious.
Curly haired humans: please go see Brandon!
Natasha is amazing!!
Huge fan of Elle, who I’ve followed for a couple of moves now. Kiss salon is the best studio she’s been at. Staff is warm, the space is cool. Just great experience all around.
Victoria has been my stylist for almost 20 years and I am so thrilled she is at Kiss Salon. It’s conveniently located with a great staff and the highest quality service and products. Every visit is like a spa day. Victoria is a great listener and I always leave with exactly what I wanted my hair to look like.…
