Love this Salon!! Love Tasha! Wonderful job with my short curly hair. So grateful.
I'm a Georgetown resident and for the last eighteen years, my stylist has been Kristjun ("KJ"). He is a miracle worker, and I have been incredibly pleased with every single haircut he’s given me. I have "problem hair" that has bedevilled many a stylist, but not KJ. He is an artist, perfectionist, and all-around…
Salon L'eau is selling faulty, damaged, fake extensions, but selling them/charging as much pricier, higher-quality, genuine hand-tied extensions as what is provided. I met with Tasha at Salon L'eau in December 2022 to discuss a blonde highlight/extensions installation. I was moving to the DC area this spring from…
what a great experience!! i initially booked with Ha but unfortunately she was feeling under the weather. the salon was super kind and accommodating and was able to get me in with another stylist, Lee. Lee took the time to listen to what i wanted but also gave his professional opinion and advice which i really…
Kristjun is simply the best! His passion, skill, and artistry is evident in every cut. He is a joy to be around, his energy contagious and I always leave feeling fabulous. The salon is super fun! Everyone is so friendly. It is a beautiful space with so much natural light.
excellent hair cut by Christian.
Bryan is my stylist and he has been doing my hair for years. He is a perfectionist and always makes my hair look so good! After a visit to Bryan, strangers stop me on the street to compliment my hair. Thank you Bryan for years of exceptional work.
Very professional with quality services. Overall pleased with results but be prepared to pay, prices are on the high end.
I am a great loyal fan of Paul Bosserman since summer of 1986😳 Love the way he cuts my hair. Never have to tell him what to do with my hair. He just know what is the best one for my face & hair. He is a perfectionist, intelligent & very classy guy. With my simple haircut style, I don’t remembered how many time I…
Amazing service. Carey has been cutting my hair for a long time. Can't imagine anyone else cutting my hair!!!!
Christophe is the best Year after year! I appreciate both his mastery and the willingness to share the truth about what looks good vs what might not best.
Fouziya is THE BEST COLORIST in DMV. My hair is in the best condition of my life....she's also a master hair cutter. Her permanent makeup also rocks! Salon Leau is fantastic...
Paul Bosserman is a fabulous hairdresser ... he cuts hair with tremendous precision. If you're looking for a great haircut ... you can't go wrong.
A CLASS ACT. ALL THE TIME, EVERY TIME. Hair is healthy and happy. Atmosphere is tranquil and relaxing. Stylists are professional but like family..... they take pride in their work and understanding your needs in equal measure. Now if Leau could just get their own parking lot...
Always on time. Excellent job!!
Paul Bosserman, currently working at Salon L'Eau, may actually the best hairdresser for men's short hair on the East Coast. Possibly he is equally as skilled with women's long hair, but I don't have long hair and I'm not a woman. There simply is nobody actually better. Maybe LA or Paris have somebody, but that's…
We love Salon Leau! Everyone at the salon is great, very friendly and always professional. Tasha is fantastic and so talented, with all textures of hair. My son and I both got to Salon Leau for several years now for haircuts and to the Spa. Go see Nadia at the Spa for the best facial treatments. We wouldn't go anywhere else.
Jean Luc is a rare combination of artistry, expertise, and genuine human sensibility. Every haircut or style he creates reflects his mastery, creativity, and meticulous attention to detail—truly high-end quality. Beyond his undeniable skill, he is grounded, attentive, and makes every client feel valued and…
LoAnn is the best ever!!! I would travel to her every six weeks if I ever were to move away. She’s that good!!! Ialways get compliments on my hair, both the color and cut.
SHOCKED at the reviews of this place. HORRIBLE attitude, if you don't want to cut hair don't. If you don't like certain types of hair, say so. The worst, AWFUL chop job. Not a trim, nothing like the fotos. BEWARE. These reviews must be rigged.
I always have a wonderful experience at Salon Leau. Everyone is warm, welcoming and skilled at what they do.
I have been going to LoAnn for over 20 years. I don’t ever tell her what to do with my hair I know she will make it look fabulous. My 2 daughters love to go to her as a treat once a year and she is so fun with them also. Lo Ann will tell you what will look good and what won’t if you have an idea. We are lucky to have her in the area!
I picked this salon because of their reputation and boy it did not disappoint! My stylist Bertrand was amazing. He listened, took his time and gave me the absolute BEST hair cut I’ve ever had. I highly recommend the salon and him. Two thumbs up!
Ha is an extremely talented colorist & hair stylist - not to mention a lovely person. I have followed her for years - at three different salons. Meanwhile, Salon L’Eau is my favorite: clean, organized, and warm in atmosphere.
I got a haircut and blow dry from Fouziyah and she was amazing! I have wavy/curly hair and she did such a good job making sure that everything was perfect. She was fast and detail oriented. I love the outcome so much and couldn’t wait to show it off. Everyone at the salon was very nice , constantly asking if they…
There are wonderful hair and skin professionals at Salon! They bring technical expertise as well as gracious and caring treatment during the process. In particular Ms. Fouziya Toudert (hairstylist, cosmetologist/eyebrows) and Ms. Nadia Oullette (Aesthetician skin care)
Cecile is not just an amazing hairstylist — she is a wonderful person to be around. Every visit is a great experience. She always knows how to make my haircut look perfect, and at the same time she brings so much positive energy, warmth, and good vibes. She is always cheerful, kind
Bach has been cutting my hair for years and he’s absolutely the BEST.
Micki has been styling my hair for a very long time. He’s great!
Ada is the best in whole DMV. I had been looking for a barber for so long and I finally found her! She is doing the best haircut. Definitely recommend 💯
The stylists I use have studied in Paris and New York and their haircuts and color applications are a testament to this training.
Bertrand is always great!! Lovely color and cut, as usual.
Bertrand is world class stylist.
This salon and Bertrand Capel are the best. I’ve been seeing him for years and wouldn’t dream of getting my hair cut anywhere else.
Everyone is kind from the moment you walk in the door. This place is fabulous! Super clean and modern, with talented and detail-oriented stylist. I highly recommend them The entire staff is personable and welcoming. Tasha is an absolute joy with amazing skill.
Ha gave me the best haircut I’ve had in a decade. I have wavy hair and previous trips to the curly hair salons have ended so badly that I kept just having to cut it into a bob over and over again for years. She did a fantastic wavy cut that after a few weeks seems to look good no matter what I do. That said I would…
Never again! I asked for a classic Bob and walked out looking like Lord Faquuad. My ends are so uneven that I will have to spend more money to correct this horrible experience.
Fouziya is the most talented stylist in the world! I along with many other of her loyal clients, followed Fouziya to this salon from Salon Roi. She is talented beyond belief. She is my go to everything. Hair cuts, hair color, highlights, a relaxing treatment called magic sleek, as well as permanent makeup. My…
Zia is AMAZING!!! I have very thick, corse, curly, dark hair, and basically stopped going to salons because I kept leaving super disappointed with fried hair and bad haircuts… even though I didn’t bring a picture for reference, she did exactly what I wanted, it turned out even better than I had hoped. She really…
Fouziya is amazing! Skilled, professional and really able to listen and offer great advice. Highly recommend.
I had an incredible experience with Faouzia. She gave me a great color job, cut, and style. I feel so refreshed and trendy and I can’t wait to go back to her.
My first time at Salon L'eau was a truly wonderful experience. From the moment I stepped into the Salon until I left was truly enjoyable. Please stop what you are doing and go see Fouziya Toudent, she is a true hair artist. She is very professional and really takes the time to listen and will make sure you are…
Jin from Salon Leau did an amazing job on my blonde transformation! My entire experience was A++++ and my hair is set for the spring and summer. Thank you, Jin!
I cannot believe the amount of positive reviews for this place. I visited this salon twice in the last two months and both times I left very upset. First time I came for a facial. The facial in itself was alright, but once I got to the cashier he told me it cost 220$ (instead of 170$ as indicated on their website).…
Cecile does a Great trim. I always feel like she brings life and energy back to my hair every month. Rebecca is also terrific with hair washing and a wonderful head massage thrown in.
great customer service, fitting me in with short notice. Great haircut by Ha. Enjoyed it.
LouAnn is an exceptionally talented stylist. I have referred her to friends and all have had excellent experiences with her. Mickey also does fantastic job blow drying my hair.
Very simple: Salon L‘eau is the best. Went there for a men’s precision haircut (I am very particular in that respect). Friendly greetings at the reception desk were followed by a thorough and very relaxing wash by cheerful Jessica. Bertrand Capel listened carefully to what I was looking for, then told me what he can…
Kay giving a basic cut, always done well. Thx for letting me tip with my card, I don’t like carrying cash
Great color and cut
Elisa always does a great job but this one may be the best haircut I’ve ever had! :)
As always, it was a wonderful experience. Salon L'eau is the best there is in DC. Everyone is professional, friendly, services are great and done quickly. Highly recommended, you will become a customer after the first try!
Yesterday's visit was a bit of a disappointment. I usually have three services. Traffic posed a late arrival, so canceled and I was charged. The second for coloring was met without a problem, but the third for cut and blow dry was not scheduled and provided a delay for myself and a problem for Mickey. After four…
Friendly, professional and efficient. I have gotten first rate exceptional cut for many years. I enthusiastically recommend Salon L’eau.
Haircut done by Luwan (hope I spelled her name right), color by Ha…. All done soooo good, almost perfect… it got me teary eyed with the result… the two of you are life saver 😉😘 will definitely be coming back!!!
Elisa is fantastic. A secret jewel of this salon. I’ve been coming here for ten months. Always a good experience. Spent a lot, don’t care. But…I had an appointment last week. My partner and I found out that day that has pancreatic cancer.and because of that I had cancel at the last minute. Whoever is at the…
I have been going at Salon L'Eau for almost 4 years and have received excellent service from Bertrand Capel. I can always count on him for an outstanding result in haircoloring and trimming. Thanks to Bertrand's professional care, my hair is a lot healthier, and although I live in Virginia, his consistent…
Always great
I have been going to salons in the New York and Philadelphia area for many years...but since my first visit to Salon L’Eau, several years ago, I am only going there. LoAnn and her entire staff are incredibly skillful, knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I get a liscivio permanent hair straightening treatment,…
I had great service, staff very willing to help me juggle treatments, get me in. Love all, toes, lashes, hair. All great. I’m very happy, will definitely return
