Frederick Ayers - Best Hair Coloring - Highlight Full Head With Shampoo Blowdry Women's Haircut - Long hair - Makeup Artists Near Me - Charlottesville, Virginia

I had been bouncing from one overpriced fancy barbershop to the next only sometimes happy with the results and often not with the service. Frederick on the other hand has always been dependable both from quality of haircut and professionalism of not cancelling appointments last minute or baiting and switching appointments with a different stylist/barber. I have been happy with short undercut hairstyles from him as well as how he cut my hair to let me grow it out and recently a clean-up on my longer hair. I highly recommend Frederick (even though it will likely make it harder for me to get appointments!). read more

Being new to the area I was worried about starting over trying to find a new stylist. Nothing else in my transition to D.C has worked out as excellent as finding Frederick. By far the best hair experience I have ever had. Not only do you get what you pay for you will have a fun, great and relaxing time while you are there. Oh and you can't beat the ambiance of Bang Salon. Parking is easy and the salon is close to other faves like coffee and great food! If you are looking for a stylist the strives for perfection and nails it every single time Frederick is your number one pick! read more

See all

Frederick is an outstanding stylist. I started working with Frederick a few years ago and have been so pleased every time I walk out of the salon. Frederick is professional, creative, a good listener, and provides you a service that is promised. It took me a few years to find a stylist in DC and once I found Frederick, I've never gone to anyone else. In October of 2017, Frederick did my hair and make up for my wedding day. He did an incredible job and made me feel comfortable during the whole process. He added to the fun and made us all look/feel amazing! I would highly recommend his wedding hair and make up to any bride to be! read more

Frederick cuts my hair normally, and he is great. But I would also like to highly recommend his wedding hair services as well. Frederick did my hair for my wedding day, along with my two sisters and my mother. He did my hair just as I asked and not only did he arrive on time, he arrived quite early. He was completely set up once I arrived. This is of great value on a wedding day when there are a lot of moving pieces and usually a tight schedule to keep. Moreover, I greatly appreciated his calm and gentle demeanor. It did wonders for my acute day-of bride nerves-- which were made worse by a threatening rainstorm on my outdoor wedding. His kind support helped tremendously, and by the time my hair was done, I felt much better. About a month before the wedding, I did a two-hour trial with Frederick where we experimented with a few different options I was considering before eventually settling on the final look. The whole process was stress-free and seamless. read more

All I can think after I have my hair cut from Frederick is, FANTASTIC! I now live on the West Coast and every time I am in town I get my hair cut from him, I will even wait to have it done here. He takes his time, never rushes, and makes you feel like you are his masterpiece, and you look it too. There is just not enough good things to say about his skills, professionalism and nice demeanor. I have trusted Frederick for years to get my hair perfect (cut, colour, highlights, he is a master at them all), and every time I will get compliments on it, even if it has been months since my last cut. read more

I just got my first cut/ full foil from Frederick, and it's fantastic. Best color and cut I've had in a really long time. He's great at asking you what you want, but then using his incredible knowledge of hair to make suggestions as well. read more

Frederick is fantastic! I really trust his judgement and when I say I want to have my hair a certain way he listens and makes me look great! I am so happy a friend referred me to him! He is also really flexible with scheduling. read more

Frederick "did" the make-up and hair for the wedding of my husband and me. He was, as usual, a doll and fun to work with but of course SUCH AN ARTIST, PERFECTIONIST and PROFESSIONAL. We certainly could have done it without him, but we would not have looked as nearly as attractive and beautiful. We're so happy that Frederick, also a dear friend for years, was able to enjoy the wedding as a guest. Trust your entire aesthetic to Frederick - you won't regret it a bit! read more

Frederick is a versatile hair stylist who understands his clients' needs and tailors their hairstyle to their lifestyle and their hair's natural tendencies. He's an artist when it comes to coloring yet very practical in his recommendations. I look forward to every appointment because I know I'll enjoy the time getting my haircut and feel really good when I walk out the door. read more

Frederick has been cutting my hair for a few years now - I wouldn't dream of going to anyone else! Even though he's been cutting my hair for so long, he always gives me an opportunity in the beginning to discuss any changes I might want for the cut. I always leave happy from Frederick's salon. He takes his time to make sure the cut is just right and never shies away from asking questions along the way to make sure I'm comfortable and that we're always on the same page. I HIGHLY recommend my man Frederick! read more

Great experience all around. I have been going to Frederick for the past year or so and now have followed him to his own space. The great quality continues! I go in for a mens cut and he is great in taking what you tell him, or show him in a picture and making it happen to fit you. He has my business as long as he stays in DC or as long as I do. read more

I moved to Charlottsville not too long ago and have been searching for a hair stylist. Well, today I found the perfect person. Frederick is Awesome!!!! He is a consummate professional. Wonderfully personable. He took extra care to find out about my lifestyle, needs and personal preference for my style, color and treatment preferences. He effortlessly styled my hair, colored it to perfection and applied a keratin treatment. I have never had a better "hair experience"....Thank you Frederick for welcoming me to Charlottsville. Truly a GEM!!!!!!! read more

The experience of Frederick...Excelsior! He is gifted in every aspect. It is not just a haircut. It is not just applying color. Frederick transports you. My very first time seeing Frederick told me that this was something unlike anything I have experienced thus far. He wanted an idea of what I wanted and elaborated on what his vision of cut and color would be best for me. I have naturally curly hair. Not everyone can work with my hair. His cut promotes the natural beauty of my curls. The color technique is amazing. Looks completely natural. And that massage that comes with the shampoo makes you melt into the chair! He is the consummate professional and is gifted with great skills. He loves what he does and it is evident in his work. People always come up to me to ask who does my hair! That in itself says everything about Frederick. He truly IS as good as it gets! read more
