Great haircut and great service! Consuelo was lovely - I went in looking for a change and she helped me to figure out what I wanted and I love the result!
I’ve gotten my hair cut by Consuelo a couple times now and I’m always really happy with her work. She’s always done exactly what I ask for. The price is reasonable for the area, and I’m happy to support a business that offers free haircuts for ppl going through unemployment. I think that’s a really sweet offering
A great experience whenever I visit. Consuelo can help you get exactly haircut you want!
Love the Spa Mesu experience. Great cuts and serene setting. I am a forever customer.
Consuelo always does an outstanding job with my short and graying hair!
The best haircut I was ever given. Complements followed me along my short walk home after my visit to Spa Mesu.
Always the best haircut!
As always a great haircut!!!!!!!
Love my cut! This is my second haircut with Consuelo and I’m really happy with the outcome. The salon is clean and quiet so a relaxing place to visit!
Came here for the first time for a haircut and was very pleased with the result. The atmosphere is calming and you are even offered a beverage during the service. Consuelo made sure i was getting the exact style I wanted and was super gentle with my hair. Highly recommend if you are in the area Edit: I came back…
Great cut from Mesu today! She is an artist!
I'm just sorry it took me 26 years to find Mesu!! She is absolutely delightful and knows hair backwards and forwards. The salon is lovely and quiet and the price is extremely reasonable for a great consultation and haircut. Can't think of a single thing to change! Thank you, Mesu!
I love the dry haircuts I get under Mesu’s talented hands!
Mesu continues to spend so much time (2 hours!) on highlights and a cut and I am the better for it. It came out beautiful and sleek. One fees pampered from the minute one walks in as she takes your coat, offers coffee, tea, etc. and discusses what you have in mind for your hair. Never rushed whether for a cut or highlight. Just wonderful.
Mesu is always, consistently, the best! I'm so glad I found her and trust her with my hair - she takes the time to understand my particular hair and what I want, which is to embrace my silvers and have a modern cut/style, while still giving helpful suggestions, which is what makes her the best. The ginger tea and chill atmosphere are also very nice.
As always I had a wonderful and relaxing time at Spa Mesu and got the perfect haircut. . Love Spa Mesu!!!
As always, another great cut and color treatment!
Great independent shop with nice hair cuts and great customer service.
It was my first haircut in the state. I had an amazing experience. I like this place.😊
Just had my second haircut by Mesu and I had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend! She fixed my homemade cut and I feel like a new person. The salon definitely has a spa like feel to it as well. I especially enjoyed the hot tea.
I had a great experience. Environment felt clean and peaceful. My hair was fixed quickly at a fair price!
Mesu is a gifted artist in hair cutting and styling, as well as a lovely person, always welcoming and positive. Could not recommend her more highly.
Savas meitas ieteiktā friziere, Mesu, viņas pašas jaunās frizūras māksliniece, mani tieši iespaidoja viņu sameklēt pirms ceļojuma! Nebiju vīlusies! Nekad tik daudzus komplimentus iepriekš neesmu saņēmusi! Ceru, ka izdosies pielikt ceļošanas rīta foto pēc divu stundu gulēšanas!
I had a great experience at Spa Mesu today, which included a wonderful haircut from Mesu herself and some lovely conversation. I’m from the west coast and I don’t recall ever getting a dry men’s haircut where the stylist opted to wash my hair after finishing the cut. Mesu explained to me that this technique allows…
I am very happy with both the work my stylist does on my hair and the customer service I receive from Consuelo. When I raised a concerned about something from a previous visit, Consuelo used the feedback to adjust her service to make sure I was completely satisfied at my visit this past Friday. Her efforts were sincere and the result was even better.
My experience was very inviting and relaxed.
I've been getting my hair cut here for the last several years since moving to the area. The women who work here are fantastic, especially Mesu, the owner. I like it because it's nice and clean without being so fancy that the money is going to the branding rather than the quality of service. I also like that they…
Spa Mesu is wonderful! Hair services have been excellent and flattering. Everyone who works there is welcoming and lovely. I look forward to my visits.
conseulo is the best she cut my hair she done the great job she is very helpful and polite .I felt warmth at salon this is my first time visit but i felt this is my home salon ☺️surely i will visit again
Consuelo gave me a wonderful dye and highlight treatment. She took a lot of care getting it just right. I've now had my second wonderful haircut with her. I will be back next month. Elsie
Great cut as always. I went from limp hair that came down to my lower back to bouncy wavy hair that stopped just below my chin with lots of beautiful layering. She also picked the perfect color to cover my whites that complimented my natural color. I was told I look ten years younger because of this cut - not bad!
Consuela did a great job with my curly hair!
My experience at Spa Mesu was fantastic. Easy to book an appointment and Consuelo did a wonderful job taking my hair from grown out mullet to adorable pixie.
I love my haircut! It is exactly what I wanted. I have found my new salon. Mesu was amazing. She is highly skilled and a lovely person. I will be back soon!
I had such a wonderful first experience at Salon Mesu! I’m living in Silver Spring temporarily and really needed a haircut. Mesu was very accommodating to my schedule and I got an appointment the day after I called. She explained how she would cit my hair and it looks great. And I had the BEST shampoo/scalp massage…
Muy bien atendida y un excelente trabajo
I chose Spa Mesu because of their great reviews and I’m so glad I did! I haven’t cut my hair in nearly a year and Consuelo gave me a great haircut. I have really long hair and wanted quite a bit off. She gave me really nice layers and my hair feels so much healthier and lighter now. She managed to shampoo, cut and…
Consuelo is great. Always gives me a great hair cut while also being fast. A very nice and relaxing environment, and very friendly staff. And beverages are always offered too!
I got a great haircut at Mesu, and I really enjoyed the calming, delightful atmosphere there!
Consuelo took her time and gave me a nicely shaped haircut. I will certainly be back.
Consuelo was amazing! Did my haircut exactly the way I wanted it!!
My visits are a delight. I am completely her focus as she works with my hair over a period of hours. Gracious and not rushed at all.
Mesu is always so nice and she's very talented. My haircuts are always amazing and just right for me so my hair just falls into place. She's the only hairdresser in Silver Spring who has seen the beauty in my natural hair.
Kind, welcoming service; quick and a great cut!
Very helpful and knowledgeable.
I can always trust Mesu to give me a really nice haircut. And just being there is restorative. A really peaceful environment, beginning with the offer of coffee or tea. Mesu is wonderful.
Consuelo did a great job. I asked for a simple cut but was taking off 4-5 inches. She added some low-key layers in the back and managed to make my gray/silver very shiny and attractive. She also did a great job with the blow-dry, something I usually skip, but it really made my hair look wonderful.
Great haircut with Consuela. Exactly what I wanted!
Very nice hair Salon! Love my haircut!
I had never actually had my hair cut in a spa setting. I hadn’t realized what kind and pampering treatment I would receive in a beautifully and tastefully decorated environment. Mesu herself is lovely. The cut I received is as well. She knew how to work with my wavy curls and random straight patches. So glad that my friends referred me here.
fantastic mens hair cut. really thoughtful and attentive, above and beyond service. relaxing place
Mesu is awesome! I always walk out looking and feeling great!
Amazing place. I got an haircut for a job fair for free just like advertised.
Great shop, excellent haircut and amazing styling all at a reasonable price! When you are offered hot tea say, “yes, please!” You’ll be delighted but you’ll go back because you love your hair!
I always love visiting Mesu. She does a wonderful job with my hair and the salon is so relaxing. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
I've always had trouble communicating what I want for my haircut, but Mesu knew exactly what to do and how to make my hair look amazing. The tea was delicious and she was an excellent host as well as hair stylist. The salon has a lovely environment and I had a great experience. I will be coming back!
I continue to love my haircuts and overall experience with Mesu. She's wonderful!
I love going to get my hair cut by Mesu. She treats me like a guest in her house - taking and hanging up my jacket and offering me something to drink. Her gentle and kind demeanor makes me feel at ease and she really knows how to treat my curly hair. I give her all the highest marks! I cannot say enough about this…
Very professional and attractive. The place is clean and has spa atmosphere.
2024: Mesu is the best. She takes time to talk first about my hairstyle needs for my short haircut and partial highlights. I have very curly hair and she is able to provide a cut that makes it much more manageable. She's also great at cutting my son's hair (from a young age to now 13 years old). Mesu and Consuelo…
Great !
I love Mesu and Consuelo! They are both so kind and are both very gifted stylists! I wouldn’t go anywhere else!
Warm welcome and professional service provided. The place replenishes my spirit. Well done Spa Mesu.
I have been going to Spa Mesu for 17 years, because I can always count on high quality services in a welcoming and professional setting. Thank you, Mesu and team!
I can count on Mesu to give me a beautiful cut that suits my hair and face. She is gracious, caring, and warm! The salon is spotlessly clean and peaceful.
Mesu is wonderful! She does a great job on my hair, and is kind and efficient. As someone with curly, thick hair it's so hard to find stylists who can handle it. And her prices are very affordable!
The owner, Mesu, did an amazing job with my hair. She had some great suggestions with color and cut. Love my new look! Thank you so much! Very professional and kind. Will definitely recommend her to my family/friends.
Mesu and Consuelo are wonderful. I feel listened to and am able to relax, while they work their magic. Simply splendid every time.
Had an excellent visit and the service was way above great. I will definitely be going back and I highly recommend Spa Mesu. Very professional and friendly. Thank you so much!!
Got a great haircut, in the salon set up for anti COVID measures.
In addition to providing a great haircut despite my not having a clear idea of what I wanted, Mesu was very kind and warm, with a gentle touch, and although I was a stranger I was welcomed like a friend. I will be coming back!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great hair cut and very friendly establishment!
Great job on my hair! Thank you Consuelo!
It is peaceful and nice in there.
Very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful
Tried Spa Mesu on the advice of a friend with beautiful hair. I was not disappointed at all. Consuelo did a great job trimming my hair. Both she and Mesu were warm and welcoming. I will definitely be back for my next cut.
Consuelo is fantastic and super professional!!
Mesu was wonderful. She listened, did a dry cut which I prefer and then a lovely blow dry. I am very pleased. This was my first visit but I will definitely return again!
Mesu gave me a fabulous haircut. She knows exactly what will suit your face and and is well equipped with the latest trends and techniques! She greeted me when I entered the salon and also offered coffee/drinks which was really a sweet and warm gesture. She also engaged in a good conversation and suggested few tips…
It was a very nice environment, very calm. Mesu is a very good listener and she is very knowledgeable and her demeanor is very gentle. I will definitely will recommend her for my friends and family.
Excellent service
Mesu makes you feel like a queen! Couldn't wait to get to the salon after the quarantine lifted and shops began reopening. Love my cut and highlights.
As always, excellent service, attentive staff, and relaxing experience.
I have been going here for 3+ years now and Consuelo never fails to make my hair just the way I want! I usually come in with a photo and she does a fantastic job or replicating the look I want. She is very knowledgeable about the different hair types as well and have proven time and time again she knows hair very…
Service was friendly and efficient in a Beautiful space! Truly a hidden gem in downtown Silver Spring. Go there you won’t regret it. I’ll be back.
Consuelo did such a fantastic job on my long unruly hair! It has such a beautiful shape now! She is so sweet, kind, attentive and patient! Five stars for sure! I will recommend Consuelo to my friends and family and I will be back for sure! Thank you!
I love Spa Mesu & have never been so happy with the care, cut & style of my hair. Once again Spa Mesu has exceeded my high expectations! So happy with my hair by Consuela & the style- a lovely up-do styled by Mesu- for my daughter's wedding this weekend. So beautiful!! Thank you!
First time going here and it was great. I asked for a bob and Mesu did a fabulous job. I’ll get all my haircuts there from now on.
Always a pleasure to get a haircut by Mesu, she’s consistently attentive to my requests, talented and friendly. Perhaps most importantly, she’s extremely careful to follow all recommended health guidelines scrupulously. Since it’s usually (maybe always, since March?) just she and her client in the studio, I feel very safe getting my hair done at Spa Mesu!
Consuelo always gives me a lovely cut
This was my second visit to Spa Mesa, this time taking my daughter. Consuela was great with her, confirming her wishes and checking in with her throughout her cut and styling to make sure she was on track.
Mesu and Consuelo do a great job at a great price!
I love coming to Spa Mesu, whether it's Consuelo or Mesu, they always do an amazing job and I leave feeling excited about my cut. It's the best self care! I've been here 4 times now and highly recommend them. I have thick hair and they know just what to do with it so it feels lighter and is flattering.
Mesu is great at listening to what you want and trying to do that, something many stylists lack. Great service and value, I'll be back!
I love coming to Spa Mesu because in addition to being a terrific beautician, Mesu treats people specially. I always feel really good, as well as look good, when I leave!
Mesu is a wonderful person and terrific hairdresser. She listens attentively to what kind of haircut you're interested in and will offer advice, if asked. I highly recommend her.
Love the service I get at Spa Mesu. For over 15 years Mesu and her team have kept my hair healthy and stylish.
Terrific haircut as always. I've been going to Mesu for years. Great place for a men's haircut.
Excellent first experience at Spa Mesu! Mesu is a lovely person and a skilled stylist. She listened to what I wanted, offered suggestions, and gave me a great haircut. The spa is clean and relaxing and the services are reasonably priced. The spa is a bit of a drive from where I live, but I will definitely be returning.
