If you have locs, this is THE place to be!…read more
Service: 10/10 - Kerri has been doing my hair for a little over two years now, and she never misses. Every single visit I leave saying "You did your BIG ONE, Kerri!!! " -- and this time was no different. I showed her a picture of the style I wanted and she delivered it exactly. No guessing, no compromises, just results.
I have longer locs, so my appointment ran about 3 hours (shampoo, retwist, style, and dry time included) -- which is actually pretty quick for my length and services. Just keep in mind your time may vary depending on hair length and what you're getting done. I also had zero wait time, which I always appreciate.
Chair-side manner: 10/10 - Now, Kerri's chair-side manner is truly something special. I've been to a lot of stylists over the years, and her personality and the way she makes you feel just hits different. I also want to shout out Torae, Tajae, and Freda -- both have shown me excellent service as well. This shop is full of talent.
Vibes: 10/10 - The atmosphere is everything -- welcoming, cultural, clean, and just peaceful. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable about locs, and professional. They offer beverages and books to keep you comfortable, and they even send out newsletters with loc care tips, shop events, and local happenings. Little touches like that show they genuinely care about their clients beyond the chair.
Overall: 10/10 - I've visited one other loc-centered salon in the DMV, and this one is in a league of its own. Every time I come back I can see the shop growing and leveling up in how they serve their clients.
10/10. Been coming here for years and I'm not going anywhere.
Peace & Blessings,
