I had a great first time experience here. I'm usually terrified of anyone touching my hair, but Savannah patiently listened to my concerns and she exceeded my expectations. I asked for a cut and curtain bangs, and as a Level 1 Service provider, Savannah was hesitant/nervous to cut my bangs, so she asked Nicholle, a Level 5 provider, to come over and handle the bangs instead! Nicholle showed her how it was done and the bangs came out exactly how I had hoped! I thought this was a thoughtful, professional, and collaborative effort handled well by Savannah. The salon is clean and well kept. In a small strip mall right in Staples Mill with plenty of parking. The owner was quick to respond to my emails and schedule my appointment. At $38, it was one of the lowest priced haircuts I was able to find, with the highest ratings on Yelp. I'll be returning! read more

I recently had an appointment there with Savannah. Who was very nice but inexperienced. Unfortunately for me. I had my hair foiled and toned. It still looks the same. Not platinum like I requested. She was not comfortable with a pixie cut or my texture whatsoever. She didn't know how to trim my hair or style it. She put so much product in ny hair I had to re wash it and style it when I got home. I couldn't even comb through it. I paid a ridiculous amount for my appointment. Didn't even get a full haircut and it was styled in a way I don't style it. I Called to speak with the manager about how upset I was. And wanted some type of a refund. Not a full refund obviously. I waited until I got home to call. So I wouldn't embarrass the stylist since, she was standing right by the counter at check out. I was told the owner would contact me about it. Never heard from the owner. read more

So I've been here before at the recommendation of my mother. I tend to get more outlandish bright colors in my hair and she simply colored in grey. When she decided to start growing out her roots she communicated that clearly to her stylist. Unfortunately her stylist decided she knew better (I wish I knew the name but I don't). She arrived to her allotment with all the commotion tools already out and when she asked why, the stylist said that she needed to either get the color treatment, or she would be charged for canceling part of her scheduled services. Keeping in mind that she had not scheduled colouring services, I was incredibly surprised by this kind of reaction. While I have not had a bad experience myself (the reason for 3/5 instead of 2/5) and they color and style hair quickly and well, I won't be returning based on the duplicitous practices. I would recommend this location for color updates on a one visit at a time basis only, not creating a lasting stylist relationship. read more

I was tired of my drab grey hair. I had seen on social media that Elena Sanzone did wonderful work so I went for a consultation and booked an appointment. Her salon is very warm and inviting with a very attentive and welcoming staff. It is a very relaxing atmosphere. She cut and colored my hair, which is very thin. She took my grey and made it so many shades of warm blonde tones I can hardly believe it! It is soft and looks fuller from the layers she cut. She listened to what was important to me. I am getting many compliments on it. I am referring everyone I know to Invidia Hair Design. I am beyond satisfied and look forward to a future having Elena make my hair better and better! read more

I found Invidia on Yelp looking for a place near my job where I could pop over on my lunch break for a quick cut. I called when they opened at 10 and was happy to book an appointment for the same day at 130. Upon arrival I was warmly greeted by the receptionist and waited a brief amount of time to be seen. Sophia was my assigned stylist. She's a level two so her pricing was reasonable. She took the time to listen and ask questions regarding the look I wanted to achieve and was happy I had photos to help visualize my goal. I left feeling refreshed with my hair washed, cut and styled for a great price. The receptionist even gave me a goody bag since I was a new client. I definitely recommend you give them a try and ask for Sophia! read more

It was a couple years ago. Got in on a Groupon, it was just an alright cut for long hair. I definitely had better.

Had to stop coming here due to the lack of service I received on my last visit. I arrived just as another customer was finishing her appointment, and I let her pass to go to the counter to pay for her services. Boy, was that a mistake! She proceeded to talk. And talk. And talk. And talk. And then talk some more. I had to listen to what her Thanksgiving plans were, what the counter girl's Thanksgiving plans were. Hear about who all in each of their families was gluten intolerant and the ways they each go about getting around it. What stores are good for buying gluten free products. How "It's the new normal." How many times did she say that? And then just when you think the conversation is coming to a close, they start saying the exact same things all over again! Mind you, the lobby isn't large. There's no way possible the counter girl (Ashley, I think) didn't see me. In fact, she looked me dead in my face and just kept on talking as if I weren't even there. The thing to do would have been to acknowledge me, check me in, and let my stylist know I was there. And then go back to your vapid conversation. After listening to this annoying banter for lord knows how long without acknowledgement, I finally got up and told Ashley she could cancel my appointment since I wasn't important enough to greet, and walked out. Service. Learn it. read more

I've been coming to Invidia for my curly long hair for years. Marcella always does in amazing job with my curly cut. She's careful to listen to what I want and to be cautious when cutting length, never overdoing it. The vibe in the salon is warm and relaxing. All of the stylists are friendly, welcoming and professional. I've only ever had positive experiences here and I won't go anywhere else. For my job I regularly travel out of state and the country for weeks at a time, but I always wait (and even put off getting a cut) until I can be back in Richmond and go to Invidia. read more

I have been going to Marcella at Invidia Hair Design for a while now, and have had great success. The people that work there are friendly, and really have a family type atmosphere between them. I can honestly say that I have had some of the best experiences there since leaving my hometown in IL. I truly trust Marcella, and her innovative creativity with my hair is fun, and evocative. The extreme happiness I am brought when she is finished each time is amazing. My latest visit for foiling my blond and then pink was absolutely, without a doubt the best visit yet! My hair looks amazing, and I do get complimented all the time on my hair. I of course, tell everyone where to go for beautiful hair, straight to Invidia Hair Design, and to Marcella, the artist that truly makes my hair beautiful and fun. read more

Since moving to Richmond, I have struggled to find a new stylist who could work the same magic on my hair as my old one, do I decided to look at Yelp and Google reviews to find someone close to my new home. Invidia was super close to my house and had good reviews, so I figured that it worth a try. I called Invidia to make an appointment and was lucky enough to get Carie as my stylist. I told her what I didn't like about my most recent cut and what I really wanted. She knew exactly what I was asking for and agreed that it would be a more flattering style for my face than what I walked in with. 30 minutes later...I knew that I had found my new stylist! I had a pleasant experience from the time I called to make my appointment to the time I walked out the door. I'm still smiling every time I look in the mirror! read more

Christy was helpful and knowledgeable, and helped steer me in the right direction in order to walk away with a cut I loved, giving me the final say on the details, and executing the style expertly. In my experience, this was a judgement-free, down-to-earth, relaxed, and quality establishment! read more

Great place for a haircut and style. I often use groupons when trying new salons and this didn't disappoint. Staff is nice and salon is clean. Ask for pricing when scheduling. Some stylist may charge more than others. You can request service on a walk in but depending on time and day that might not always work. Call ahead if you need a quick style. They have taken me as a walk in but on days they are busy they probably wouldn't be able to accommodate. read more

I just moved to RVA and was happy to find Invidia nearby. Christy did an amazing job with my haircut. She listened thoroughly to me and made sure to check in step by step. I have really dense hair and she expertly gave me long layers and thinned it out. It was the exact cut I wanted! The staff here were all friendly as well. They even gave me a little goodie bag at the end of my visit. read more

Great service and friendly staff. I am really glad I found this place and it is really close by too.

It was my first time at this salon and my stylist was Marcella. She was very patient, attentive and polite and listened to what I wanted. I was there for a haircut and surface highlights. She made sure I got the exact color of highlights I wanted and the exact length of the haircut. She is great at what she does. I'm taking one star off because I was told by another stylist (not Marcella) that I wouldn't be able to use the groupon right away after purchasing as it takes 24 hours for the barcode to be loaded. But I'm glad I didn't listen to her and purchased the groupon then and there and it actually took 24 seconds for the barcode to be loaded and I ended up saving tons. Another star deducted because I was there for a haircut and surface highlights. Instead of doing the haircut first, the highlights were done first with another client being worked on between my highlights and haircut while I waited for about 30 minutes which I thought was a little unprofessional as I had made the appointment well in advanced. And because the highlights were done first, more dye was used on my hair since I had longer hair and due to this I was charged $10 extra that wasn't covered by the groupon I used. read more

I loved my experience there my stylist was excellent.I love my hair cut and color I would recommend my friends go there

Both my fiance and I have been going to Invidia for close to a year now. We both go and see Gabby, who is amazing. I'm super lazy when it comes to my hair, and I dont like investing a lot of time in the morning. I need a cut that is wash and go, but still looks nice. I dont know how she did it, but Gabby gave me the perfect cut. It stays looking good as it grows out, and I dont have to use a ton of tools or products to be presentable. She also manages to cut my guy's hair really well, considering he never knows what he wants. I haven't had any other services at this salon, but I know that they have a LOT to offer including massage, and ear candling. I plan on getting a massage here soon. The salon is always clean, and they have frequent specials. The $15 referral bonus is a nice touch too. Possibly the best part about this place is that I have never, not even once, felt pressured to buy product from them. Nothing turns me off faster than pushy sales after a haircut. Long story short: Invidia is a great salon, and Gabby is a fantastic stylist. read more

My wife had her hair done by Katy and it looks beautiful and she is so happy. She said that Katy was very welcoming and sweet. She has finally found a happy place and a wonderful person Katy to do her hair. Thank You Katy for making my wife happy. read more

I happened upon this neat little salon and celebrated a year of going back on a regular basis. The owner, Elena, is an excellent colorist and I've kept the same hair style/cut for over a year now-- Prices are reasonable and it's worth the few extra miles for me to get a great cut, style and color. Elena is always open to new ideas but is honest with me on keeping my look current and easy to style. My husband sees Gabby who does a great job keeping him neat and trimmed. Just a good salon all around. read more

Had an appointment today with Amelia and loved it! She was upbeat and very fun to talk to. She also listened to my awful high maintenance wishes and fixed up my hair EXACTLY the way I wanted it. Hair cut, hair glaze, plus the chemistry treatment was all superb. Thanks Amelia! Oh and the lady at the front desk had a great attitude. Seems like the whole staff was nice and worked very well together. Overall, great experience- 5 stars well earned. read more

I decided to cut my hair pretty drastically. Wanted a nice short cut, my hair was down to my mid-back. So needless to say, I was terrified. I called them last minute, they got me in to see ELENA. She knew EXACTLY what I wanted, my hair is PERFECT!!! I absolutely love her, and it looked like everyone there was amazing. She is an AMAZING stylist and I will never go anywhere else again! Got a bag of samples and coupons too! read more

Let me first start by saying that I rarely go to salons and when I do I am normally disappointed. But Invidia is fantastic! I have never gotten my hair colored professionally before and was worried it would be super expensive or that they wouldn't be able to achieve what I wanted. I had Brittany for my stylist and she was absolutely amazing. From the start she was super knowledgable about how to get the color I wanted and what would be better for my hair and how I wanted to maintain it. She put me at ease and was super easy to talk to. I would 100% recommend this salon to anyone. It was very clean, all the staff was friendly and accommodating. Their products are reasonably priced as well. Fantastic find in Richmond! read more

My hairdresser was Brittany. She was so amiable, so amicable. She explained from the get go how everything worked. She just did a dry cut on me, which I asked for, and I chopped off a lot of hair. She made sure it was the length I wanted and she and I chatted each other up. I asked about their slowest days and how long they'd been there. She answered my questions with the most friendliest of attitudes. She also said she specializes in perms and I've been wanting to get a curly perm again for a while. I think this'll be my destination. They gave great discounts and coupons, and you get great perks if you refer a friend. And your friend gets the perks too!! They're also very clean and well-organized. A great plus. With all that being said, my cut, as the days have gone by, is kind growing iut a little weird. But I'm thinking she probably needs to learn my hair. I have half curly and half straight hair so all it does is frizz up. On any given day. Def would go back...and this time, for a perm! read more

I used a $28 groupon for a haircut and conditioning treatment. Christy did a FABULOUS job with my hair. The haircut was neither too long nor too short in length or time. She is clearly talented and was able to blowout my curly hair straight rather than needing to flat iron. I left with lovely bouncy layers. They use redken and Pureology products. I'm usually a fan of places where there is no upcharge for my medium length curly hair (am able to leave a larger tip instead), however, there was a $10 upcharge here and would probably be $20 if my hair was longer. I don't spend much on beauty and am usually happy with a $15 hair cuttery cut, but maybe it is time for a change! read more

Carie is an amazing stylist. She listens to my wants and needs and always makes the best suggestions when I need them. I leave feeling like a million bucks each and every time. The salon is also always clean and everyone there is super friendly! read more

Great atmosphere and a Friendly staff! Good quality products ! Try them out you will definitely love it and go back! read more

Finally...a stylist that listen to what the customer want and NOT talk down on the imperfections of someone's hair/look/skin etc! All their staff are well trained and skillful. You instantly feel their good vibe, energy and the "welcome" feeling. Thank you Invidia cos you just gained 2 new customers! read more

I made an impromptu appointment there with Carie, I had really damaged and chopped my hair to pieces, she never made me feel judged, looked at my hair, listened to my ideas and worked with me. I don't go to get my hair done very often because I can honestly say that I've only liked a handful of cuts I've gotten in my life. Needless to say, I'm in LOVE with the cut and the color, booked my return visit before I left. read more

Went to Invidia initially through Groupon but got lucky to be assigned to Nicole. She's great! Always does a thorough job with my haircut and highlights and helps me pick out the right products for my hair. I leave there looking and feeling 10 years younger! Lol! I've been going to Nicole for over 2 years now! Definitely check out the wonderful women at Invidia and ask for Nicole. You will not be disappointed! read more

Fantastic salon! Everyone is friendly and Marcella is an excellent stylist. She gave me the cut I was looking for, low maintenance, with shape and style. I would definitely recommend both her as a stylist and the salon. read more

I'm new to Richmond and found this place on Yelp. What a great salon. Elena is awesome and does a fabulous job with my color and cut. The customer service is outstanding! read more

This is a very clean salon with friendly, talented stylists. That's where the good ends.

I found this place on Groupon when I needed a spray tan. I probably wouldn't have ever found it otherwise since I live in the fan but I'm glad I did! Lauren was so nice and did a great job. I was really surprised to get a bag of samples and coupons when I left. Highly recommended! read more

Its so hard to find a salon when you don't know anyone in town. I bought a livingsocial deal for this salon for a deep conditioning and haircut! I am very satisfied with my purchase! My appointment was with Lauren and she was beyond sweet and gentle! I just wanted a trim to freshen up my hair and she gave me exactly that. She didn't cut more than I asked and she even curled my hair after when I asked. The place is clean and adorable, even down to the comfortable shampoo chairs. The haircuts are only $32 regular price which is much more affordable than the average. I will definitely be returning if I'm in town long enough! read more

I am not easy to please when it comes to my hair, so when I found myself in need of coloring and in Richmond, I was nervous about a new salon. Nicholle did a fantastic job. I have never been so happy with my color. I was blown away by how great my hair looked! The hours aren't very good, though. They close really early. read more

I researched reviews for hair salons in the Henrico area when I first moved here May of 2012 since I didn't know anyone in the area. My first experience was amazing. My hairstylist is Carie and I highly recommend her! The place is very friendly and great price for the service you receive. It's a very bright and friendly place. They are very accommodating to what you want. My bangs haven't been styled properly until I went to this place. I explained how the scar on my head causes the bangs to raise up on one side and how I don't style my hair hair one handed. I'm a comb and go type of woman. I don't plan on switching salons. read more

Nicolle really took the time to talk about some of the issues of my hair. She let me know about new products without pressuring a purchase. I will definitely be back! read more

Alright ladies, we all know how hard it is to find a hair salon we love and also trust with our precious locks. I made an appointment here out of necessity a few months ago because my hair was out of control and in desperate need of some lovin'. I went out on a limb and called here because it was closest to my house, and made an appointment with Carie. My gosh, I love her! But I love what she does to my hair more! She's very kind, and won't chat your ear off if you're just trying to relax during your appointment, (but she is also personable and fun to talk to, best of both worlds.) Both times I've visited I get compliments for days on how amazing the cut/color is. Once you find a good hairstylist, there's no reason to look anywhere else. 5 stars! read more

I really enjoy this hair salon. This salon has become my new salon as it is super convient for me distance wise. I enjoy there deep conditioning chemical treatments as i see a visbale difference in my hair! I have had three lovely ladies do my hair and they were all super friendly and pleasent to work with. The owner on the store was friendly as well, but i felt she was really pressuring me to buy product which i did not like so much. Aside from that, i will continue to go here for my trims and salon needs! read more

First time here, everyone was wonderful. My appointment was with Marcella, she's very knowledgable and seems to genuinely listen to her clients. She even offered ways I could save money and a give the same look and didn't mind at all when I sheepishly pulled up Pinterest on my phone to show her color and style I wanted. I have an appointment set up to see her in April. I think I may have finally found the salon for me! read more
