Balayage
Gabrielle D.

My first time going to this salon and immediately felt like family! I've been searching for a fairly priced hair stylist in DC and this was exactly that. Yvonne's quality and attention to detail was unmatched. I left extremely happy with my balayage and even happier knowing I now have a great place to return to for my hair needs!

Yvonne and Cindy did an absolutely amazing job of cutting and styling my hair again. The experience was lovely as they are, and they enhanced my curls in a unique and different way than the last time. Very reasonable price for such talent. Would highly recommend!

IG @ SpicyAivy bleach + silver toner by Yvonne
Aivy H.

Great location!! It's so cute and I recently found out whilst getting my hair done by Yvonne that they have rooms they rent out for botox injector who I met and he is lovely! They did a consult whilst my toner was processing and I'll be coming back to see him in a few months. Overall quality is amasing, I've followed both Yvonne and Hava from their old location and will always be loyal to them. 10/10 - IG @ SpicyAivy

Gorgeous french bob with fun beach waves. Yvonne is a master hair cutter and this bob is her signature. I recommend her highly!!!

I was here in DC for a weeklong visit and decided to get a cut at a big city salon. I am so glad that I did! Yvonne listens and really understands what you want before she starts cutting. She is a master haircutter and stylist. I recommend her highly!!!

Came here for my first time and got my haircut by Hava and love it! So happy with her skills to make my hair feel light, voluminous, and pretty. I really just let her do her thing of what she thinks is best because I searched her ig first and was very impressed by her previous work. She gave me face framing layers and more layers in the back. Took off about 2" as well. Honestly her blowout alone was gorgeous but because I was going out to dinner with my husband later and a party tomorrow she curled it more for me. I truly felt so pretty and good about my hair walking out of the salon. Will be going to her for my color in the future too.

Look at the volume thanks to the amazing layers Yvonne gave me & no more gray!

I just moved to DC and I found my new stylist! I got a cut and color w Yvonne (the owner) who brought my hair back to life! I left looking and feeling amazing! She and her husband who helps her run the business are the sweetest. My son also got a cut w Gladys and he was really happy w the result. He can be very reluctant to cut his hair but she walked him through the entire process and listened to what he wanted. Thanks to Calvary for the warm DC welcome! Now we can relax knowing our hair will be in good hands.

Hava & Yvonne truly knock it out of the park when I see them. My hair is always a vision after going to this salon. it's so healthy, shiny and the absolute perfect cut! I have very thick hair and somehow it's the lightest it's ever been once I visit Hava. They have become my second family and I'm so very grateful for them and this salon!

Haircut with Yvonne
J S.

Yvonne was amazing! I asked for long layers and long curtain bangs - turned out beautiful

Kaylyn M.

Got my hair cut in October by Yvonne. She was amazing! I barely told her what I had wanted and she did exactly as I had envisioned. I have had short hair a few times in my life and this cut by far has stayed manageable and easy to style. Going back next week and excited to have found my salon in DC. Also talked with Jessi while in the salon. She was wonderful!

Blonde double process
Adrienne S.

I have visited cavalry salon for a over the past 1.5 years I have naturally dark brown and curly hair and do a double process to achieve ashy blonde I see Yvonne for color and Senni for blow outs and always leave happy with my final product Yvonne runs the salon and is a very sweet soul, she cares for her workers and clients and it shows. She always does the most she can do to make sure my hair achieves the end result I wan.

After and before the highlights.
Grace H.

I've tried so many different salons in DC and nothing compares to Cavalry. Not only are their prices very realistic but they do a fantastic job!! I had two appointments with Yvonne - one for a classic cut and the other for highlights. I'm so happy with my hair. I won't be going anywhere else.

Blonde babylights by Hava 3
Emily M.

Hava is an artist! I came in with hair that desperately needed help, and Hava worked magic on it. The color looks unbelievably natural and the cut frames my face perfectly. In only just a few hours, I have received so many compliments. One person even told me I look younger. My only regret is not coming in sooner! Thank you so much Hava .... you made my day... I love my hair!

The picture before of Julianne Hough was what I showed saying, I want baby lights all over.
Grace R.

I'd like to respond to Cavalry's salon manager, as I feel that there are things that were said that were not clarified. The damage to my hair was so severe that it is not until 2022 my hair is healthy. My hair was damaged here winter of 2018. The fact that the manager said I refused to allow for proper steps to be completed is untrue. In fact, the only step that I stated to not move forward one was the heat styling. She also never coached me on guidance of bleach, I would never say - continue forward, bleach my hair with no care in the world. In fact, what she did do, was heavily foil my hair. Leave the bleach on beyond the timer (yes, she offered to do a gel manicure whilst doing so) and must have not been paying attention, additionally, when my hair was not lifting quick enough she took a blow dryer (with the directed drying attachment) and placed the dryer directly onto each foil - to which I said, please no!, I have never had that done before, that seems damaging and Yvonne stated it needed to be done to lift my brassiness - if that is proceeding with caution, that is awe striking. Additionally, while in hysterical tears, her husband refused to take my debit card out of my hand. My hand was literally extended, as I cried, saying please just charge it so I can go home. He refused to accept payment.

this place is very dependent on the threader(is that what they are called?) i like this location…read morebecause of its proximity and plenty of free parking nearby, some of the threaders(yeah im just gonna keep using that term) are good, but some are exquisitely bad. the one today was in the latter category. i have full, thick brows and they look good even when they are NOT threaded(hey i tried to be humble, but ...it...didnt..work..). on occasion, i will get them threaded for a more refined look. the threader today did not do that. one of my brows got hair removed excessively and looked uneven by comparison and there were no sharp lines. i did point this out to the threader(who willl remain nameless) who insisted everything was good. she also applied lotion to my brows without asking me first, which is made my face all itchy and i washed it off immediately. i usually get an astringent like witch hazel, which P.E. has too but the threader usually will ask me first what I want. gee, gosh damn , is that so hard? anyway, once a threader messes up, i do NOT want them to fix it, bc that usually makes it worse...way worse. so i will have to get creative with my pencil and mascara brush. and honestly, im very irritated. im putting my pic from today and one from another salon where i got my brows done before.picture is worth a thousand brows after all. btw, i PREFER the P.E. in tysons corner mall, i have NEVER had any issues there.

TL;DR (long version in the photos)--I never write reviews of businesses, let alone small businesses…read morebut I am hoping that doing this will save someone else what I went through. I visited Semra's studio twice and she gave me a severe allergic reaction (Google PPD allergic reaction and HD Brows and BrowSculpt) that left me with severe hives on my face and extreme swelling of the eyes/ face for which I had to see three doctors and had to use six separate medications. It took me over a month to fully recover (I visited her salon Sept. 17, and am only now fully recovered as of late Oct.). After I told her about it, the only apology she gave me was "sorry to hear about it :(" I asked her for a refund and she refused, not even refunding me the tip or the cost of the service that caused the allergic reaction. On top of that, when I sent her the pictures, her reaction most generously could be understood as ignorance about a very common allergy that occurs due to the chemicals she uses in the line of work she's been in for ~30 years and at worst as accusing me of lying. She refused to take any accountability even when her actions seriously harmed a customer. I'll let you draw whatever conclusions you believe appropriate from my experience.

I love love love this place. I've been going to this place to get my lashes done for almost three…read moreyears. I get the yumi keratin lash lift done every 10-12 weeks. I use to get them done every 8 weeks, but now that my lashes are longer I noticed they can last up to 10-12 weeks. I also noticed my lashes got so much longer after I was doing these lifts for a year. Semra is amazing. She's always gentle with my lashes and takes amazing care to make sure they look good. I always leave satisfied with my lashes. My eyes are usually very sensitive as well. When I use to get regular lash lifts, my eyes would get irritated. But with the yumi lash lifts, my eyes aren't irritated. I think the chemicals are more gentle than regular lash lifts. Also I love the natural look of these lashes. They're so curly and long and just naturally pretty. I also got my brows done twice here. I usually don't get my brows done because I don't really care about my brows as much as I do my lashes lol, but Semra made my brows look really nice as well. I was impressed by how different I look with them shaped better. I will think about doing my brows more often here
