I had the same experience as Jenna. The cuts were good, the color was horrible. I have medium brown hair with caramel/reddish highlights. I asked for the same. They convinced me to do one color all over and it was BLACK which washed me out completely. There were absolutely no highlights. They didn't want to give me my $ back. They wanted to give me a $50 gift certificate. It took a few times and driving from Arlington to Springfield, but I finally got my $ back. I took that to a different salon to get the color corrected a wk later. read more

I called to book an appointment but whoever answered the phone was so rude and short, I decided to hang up and find another place to who'd welcome my business. How unfortunate! read more

Sadly, I've been disappointed recently with the service at Jon David Salon in Rosslyn. I pay extra ($66 plus tip) for a specific expert stylist I really like, but the past 2 times I've gotten my hair cut with him, his just cuts my hair and has someone who is not an expert blow-dry my hair. I don't mean to be rude, but the less experienced person is painstakingly slow. When the expert would do the cut from beginning to end, I'd be done in a half hour. With a less experienced assistant, it takes a full hour. Having my hair cut well in a short amount of time is part of why I pay for an expert. I'm not sure if this is a recent change in their model, but if a customer pays extra for their top-tier stylist, that's what they should get from beginning to end. read more

I had the opportunity to get my haircut recently at the Jon David Salon at their North Arlington location. I was very happy with my experience from start to finish: the ease with which I was able to schedule an appointment via their website to paying for my service after my haircut. This is my third time visiting the salon, and I have had a wonderful experience each time. I was not sure where to get my haircut but after visiting Jon David Salon's website and saw their commitment to the community and environment through participation in several charitable organizations, I wanted to support a salon that was doing good things. On this particular trip, my shampoo and massage were done by Kelly. She was absolutely amazing - gentle but firm. She did such an amazing job that she was able to ease my upper neck and head tension and I was breathing deeply and happily in the zone ready for my haircut. My stylist on this occasion was Maria. I selected her because she is experienced working with thick, curly, frizzy hair. She was bright and cheerful when she greeted me. She took me to her station and listened carefully to what I had to say. She examined my hair and offered good suggestions before sending me to get my hair shampooed. It took her some time to finish with me because of my curly hair, but she was patient throughout and made sure to send me out of the salon feeling very very happy and my hair looking beautiful. My hair looked so polished and elegant, I joked with my husband it looks like 'magazine hair'. I highly, highly recommend Jon David Salon, North Arlington. I consistently receive wonderful haircuts and the staff is lovely. I highly recommend both Maria and David for haircuts. They are the best! read more

Very happy with this salon great friendly staff David for sure has magic hands Will be coming back read more

I have lived in DC for the past 7.5 years now and have continuously struggled to find a good hair salon that wouldn't royally mess up my hair. I don't do much with my hair, all I want is a cut with some long layers which, shockingly, not many people can do right. I finally decided to try out Jon David since it was close to my apartment and while the prices aren't "cheap" they're not unreasonable either. I have been there twice now, each time with a different stylist, and both did a phenomenal job with my hair! I walked away with exactly what I wanted and my hair looked beyond healthy. I can definitely tell that they hold a high standard to their stylists and strive to only provide the best service to their clients. I have already recommended this salon to many of my friends and will be back again and again and again. read more

The only person I trust with my blonde hair is Maysaa. I have had so many horror stories from stylists over bleaching my hair, having it turn purple, turn green, turn brassy, really any and every terrible thing you can imagine happening to blonde hair, has happened to me. Maysaa is an artist with her highlights and such a lovely woman to be around. The staff here is always super friendly and I love the styling and aesthetic of the salon. The prices are also very reasonable, for highlights, a cut, and a blowdry, it's under $200, definitely good for the area. read more

After a nice bowl of pho across the street at Pho 75, my friend realized he needed a hair cut, so we wandered in here just before closing. They graciously accepted us, and he got a fantastic cut done by Avisa for a measly $30. That's the short story. Here's the long story: My friend had long (6 inch) curly thick locks that he wanted to just shave off to get a military cut. Avisa said, "Really?" and she offered a plethora of other options. My friend readily ignored her suggestions and decided suddenly that he wanted Vanilla Ice's haircut. Google it. It's awful. We told him it was awful. He insisted. Avisa refused at first, suggesting any other normal option... He insisted. Then she begged not to have to do it... He insisted. Then she begged to give him at least a more updated version of that... He insisted. Then finally, eventually, around the middle of the cut, she caved and went all in... She also begged for me not to associate her name with this horror of a haircut... even asked to keep her face out of the pictures... but I'm all about praising a stylist when praise is due. She was patient, and helpful, and funny, and she left my friend with the best Vanilla Ice haircut a man could ask for should a man ever ask for it. I suggest, however, that you seek professional treatment for such a man. And I suggest that if Avisa could pull this horror off at the client's request, then she is capable of doing much cooler hair, too. Side note: While we were in the salon after hours, other staff offered to get us drinks from across the street. That was nice. Everyone was really very friendly here, and we had a great time... FOR 30 DOLLARS! read more

Le sigh. This review is based on the experience I had with one stylist. Bishara? An expert stylist, at that! I came in with hair intact, and wanted to update my ombre, and came out with fried hair. I am not a complainer, but my hair was breaking off when I got home. Like inches of hair breaking off like grated parmasean cheese when I brushed it out. The brush/application technique he used for the ombre was choppy - there was zero blending. I honestly could not tell how awful it was until I got home. I thought about calling the salon, but I felt so bad that he was just so completely terrible at judging what my hair could handle. He also cut my hair. It's very long and I asked him to give me long bangs and he took a one inch section in the front, and cut in a diagonal motion - there was absolutely no blending of the bangs into the hair surrounding the frame of my face. I told him I did not want my hair styled, but I came out with really tight-homecoming-style curls. Why is this happening to meeeeeeeeeeeee. Cut, Ombre, Toner - $200 and a few dollars. I do not remember exact price. Side note: Female who washed my hair also washed my face. My eyebrows came off. Lol. Kidding, but I did come out with an earful of water in my left ear. Side note 2: Front desk staff - very friendly. Side note 3: He smokes. Know how I know? His hands were in my face entire time. read more

Anyone struggling to find a good Blonde stylist in the DC Metro area- Go to Bishara!!!! I'm new to the DC area and have had a very hard time finding someone who could do blondes!! After numerous failed attempts at finding a good stylist and having to fly home to Michigan a few times just to get my hair done - I've finally found someone!! I brought in a few pictures to help him get a good idea of what I wanted and he was spot on!! Another great thing about going to Bishara- you don't have to pay $300 for a decent highlight job! For highlight, toner, cut, and blow dry it came out to be $170 which is very reasonable for this area! read more

Thank you Laith for an amazing haircut!!!!! I have long, fine, straight hair (and a lot of it). I'm pretty particular, wanting layers that are flattering/low maintenance and a clean look at the end. He exceeded my expectations and is excellent at what he does. Happy customer here!! read more

A good friend recommended Jon David Salon and after having a hair mishap by another salon, not only did Zaid fix the previous mistake, he made my hair amazing! Both Zaid and Laith have done my hair several times and every single time it looks amazing. The cut grows out incredibly well, my color is always impeccable, stylish and also grows out really well and the blowouts are by far the best I have ever had! I love the customer service and quality of Jon David Salon, I would highly recommend the salon to anyone! Terrific salon and amazing stylists! read more

I got the BEST haircut I've ever gotten the other day from Darima. It was my first time in the salon and I can 100% say I'll be back! I get my hair cut maybe once or twice per year tops- mostly because I never love the way it looks when it's freshly cut. But Darima knew exactly what to do with my hair, with very little direction from me. It looks better than I could have imagined. She is incredibly sweet and she even styled it for me (I wish I had taken a picture!) - but you can tell she's good at what she does. The salon is very reasonably priced and in a great location- walkable from both Courthouse and Rosslyn metro stations. I also arrived a few minutes early for my appointment and didn't have to wait at all! Highly recommend! read more

Since I was little, my hair has always been low maintenance. It worked no matter what you did to it. Not so easy as I got older. Groupon and Livingsocial for hair stylists were just not going to work. After a number of butch sessions, I was off to yelp it was to find me a good salon and stylist and ran across Jon David Salon. The last session I had before coming to this salon was a nightmare. Chunks of blonde hair in random areas against my dark brown locks made me feel like I was 5 again and cut my own hair. And then Carmen came into my life. Carmen is amazing! Although very heavy on the wallet... $225 later 4 hours down the drain And a lot of effort and geniusness from Carmen, the blonde locks turned into a beautiful bouquet of toned down blended highlights of perfection. The next few sessions were a little more pocket friendly. Full color and cut for $150. Sign up for their text messages and receive great deals. You'll thank me later and love me even more when you see your head of hair. I'm a believer. read more

I have not had a haircut in over a year due to a fear of salons. I love long hair, but usually what happens is that the stylist cuts my hair way to short and doesn't blend well. I procrastinated a cut as long as possible but decided recently to give it a shot and try a new salon. I read the reviews on yelp about John Davids and scheduled an appointment with my twin sister. Bishara, an expert stylist with 13 years under his belt, cut and styled my hair. The same night as the appointment I had a hot date and the following morning I had my highschool graduation. My haircut stood against the time and elements and made me look so glamorous for both events! Two days later I washed my hair and the haircut flattered my natural waves. This is beyond anything I could have expected! Bishara from John Davids salon has completely changed my perspective on the haircut experience. I will recommend this Salon to everyone and will absolutely be coming back! P.S the customer service is also impeccable!!! read more

Jon David Salon - Hair Salons Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

They are ok. Got a trim on a walk in on a Saturday from Sasha and she did a nice job. The atmosphere is rushed though you're in and out in less than an hour and when I tried to make an appointment to have a cut and color there really weren't any available times and they put me on hold but then hung up didn't return my call. Needless to say if they do a good job at least with the cuts but they are pricey and not flexible with times right now, not worth the effort to get in again. If you want a quick haircut I would suggest walking in during a not so busy time of day and they will have you in and out in no time and do a decent job. read more

I waited a few weeks to write this review, because I know that cut/color changes after the first week or 2 after you have it done. Well, I am still disappointed with my hair. I went in for a cut and partial highlights for my first time at this salon. They put me with a Junior stylist, which I was OK with because it meant a more reasonable price, fine with me. Well, after 3 hours, I came out with some orange hair. When I sat down, the stylist immediately judged my hair saying my highlights were "brassy" and she promised to take the brassiness out. Great! I was not satisfied with my previous highlight job at a nearby salon, and I told her I wanted ash-ey blonde highlights with a few lowlights thrown in. She promised to deliver this. Well, after a lot of toner and washing my hair, I noticed an orange-ish color only on the top of my head. The stylist kept saying "oh, next time you come it will look good, who knows you might actually like this though". Really? You should not automatically assume you are getting a "next time". Anyways, I was the last person in the salon so I felt rushed out without really getting a good look at my hair. I went to pay, and my bill- over $200! For partial highlights and a haircut with a Junior Stylist (20 years old)! The whole point of going with a Junior stylist is a lower price- $60 for partial and $37 for cut as their website stated. I was expecting to pay a little over $100 for my services. She said- well, I added a second color and 2 toner's and those are extra...! Well, I didn't ask for those things either. And I have orange hair. Thankfully, she took off the toner, but it was still more than I wanted to pay and more than their price list stated. In the salon's defense, the other 2 girls with different stylists I saw have their hair colored looked great. And after using lots of purple shampoo, the orange/brassiness has been toned down. I will not be coming back to this salon.... and my search for a salon in NOVA that can do blonde highlights like my Florida salon continues! read more

I wanted to update my review since I was requested to come back in order to fix what was done. I went back to see a master stylist who seemed very knowledgeable. Unfortunately, in order to fix the poor layering job, I had to get a wee bit more chopped off. This is the shortest my hair has been in decades so it was a lot to process and I'm still not used to it, but I'm hoping that when my hair grows it will look a lot healthier and voluminous with this new style. She also corrected my bangs and I loved how she styled it. As mentioned before, the customer service and atmosphere at the Jon David Salon is impeccable. I loved how they have such a diverse staff. My stylist also gave me pointers on how to communicate with future hair stylists considering I have fine hair. I hope to come back and see them again one day but for now I patiently wait for my hair to grow back. read more

Aracely is amazing!! I have been coming to Jon David Salon since 2011. I first went to their Springfield location and moved to the Arlington Location in 2013. I have been extremely happy with every aspect of Jon David Salon. The staff is very polite, asking to take my coat, offering a drink, and going the extra mile to ensure a great experience. The atmosphere is very modern and chic. Aracely has been my stylist since my first trip to Jon David in Arlington. She is excellent for men's haircuts. She always asks what I would like and if there are any changes since my previous visit. I have had several hair styles and each cut has been flawless. I have received a number of compliments on my haircuts and it is all because of her! She is really friendly, and always makes for an enjoyable experience. She makes getting my haircut one of my favorite things to do! I recommend Aracely, and Jon David Salon, to anyone! Keep up the great work! read more

The worst haircut I have ever had. The worst color I have ever had. I asked for highlights and lowlights. I was told it was "too soon" for lowlights (what does that mean?) and was, instead, given partial highlights on the top of my head. The result? The crown of my head (only) is white blond and rest is significantly lighter. It doesn't make sense and it looks terrible. I saw the stylist service two other customers during the short time I was there for my appointment. Now I know why my request for highlights and lowlights couldn't be honored; he didn't have time. I would have appreciated being told that so I could go elsewhere instead of him ruining my hair. The cut is, somehow, even worse. I asked for the smallest trim possible (my hair was past my collar bones) and told the stylist to "keep the length." He cut of at least 5 inches and did a bad job at that. Some places on my head are 3 inches long...others are 6 inches long. The haircut is a cross between a mullet and bowl cut. I am taking supplements to make this disaster grow out as soon as possible. All week people have been asking me "what happened to your hair?" I came to this salon, that's what happened. Stay as far away as possible from this salon. read more

It was almost 2 years since my last visit here and the woman who did a great job with my hair isn't there anymore. I was scheduled with Bishara (hair expert). I got there 10 min early and the receptionist asked if she could take my coat and get me something to drink. She hung up my coat, got distracted by another staff person, and forgot about the drink she offered me. I sat for a few minutes until Bishara greeted me. I was hesitant about working with a new hair dresser but it seemed like Bishara had some solid reviews. He was friendly and I told him I just wanted a trim and layers. I showed him a picture of how I usually style my hair since I didn't do anything to it that day. Bishara was pretty aggressive and chopped at my hair without the same precision as other places I've been. Before he started drying, the receptionist came over and motioned that his next appt was waiting. It was a bit rude and I felt like he was trying to get me out of the chair after that. I reminded him I had a slight side part and he said, "Okay, I know." I was nervous because I know my hair and the way he was drying it would make all my baby hairs stick straight up. Sure enough, that's what happened and I asked if he had any product to keep the hairs down. He applied some hairspray and said it would flatten out in 30 min. Overall, the cut was good. I wish Bishara and the receptionist gave a little more attention during the appointment, especially to ease the nerves of new clients. $64 for a wash/cut/dry wasn't bad. read more

I had been going to the same person to do blonde highlights for 15 years! Every time I tried someone different I would end up back with her vowing never to "stray" again. I really needed highlights and couldn't get to my same person and literally only had one day I could go get them done. I called Jon David Salon because it was close to my office and was assigned to Sasha. My color never looked better! She also cut my hair perfectly! She is amazing - I have now been going to her for about 8 months and I will only wait for her to do my hair. She is pleasant, professional and does a varied cut each time giving me a different look. I am extremely particular but I would trust her with any decision on what to do with my hair. She is terrific!!! read more

I have had a wonderful experience ever time I have been here. Hasina is amazing! I always make complex requests, and she never misses a beat to do what I ask. My hair is really fine and somewhat thin, and has been colored many different times in the past, more recently with box color due to COVID-19. Since then I have been here three times and I always leave feeling great with beautiful tones throughout my hair, along with a high quality hair cut. Highly recommend this salon and my stylist, Hasina! read more

Such a long story real quick: In a pinch I needed a haircut on a Friday afternoon! Yes yes they said on the phone. The place was mobbed!!! I was so worried - and yet I did not need to be worried. From phone to finish super professional, effortless, made me feel comfortable and valued, and yes - I loved my haircut. Kudos to a shop with such a great team from start to finish! read more

My experience with master stylist Maysaa was exceptional. She's very experienced, talented, professional, and overall has a very pleasant personality. She has colored my hair on several different occasions (highlights and full color) and has cut my hair consistently for the past 5 years. Each time that I have visited Maysaa I have been extremely happy with the look and experience I have received. I have and will follow Maysaa to any salon that she is at. In my experience, the salons stylist is what makes the salon stand out. read more

I just got a call from Jon David Salon making sure that I still love my haircut that I got almost 3 weeks ago. This is great customer service and I do still love my haircut. Carmen was great. She listened to exactly what I wanted and was with me every step of the way. After a tragic haircut a few years ago, I've never really trusted a stylist again, but Carmen made it easy to relax. I believed her when she said she wouldn't cut too much, and she didn't. The salon itself has a new, modern feel and is very clean. There's a little area for coffee and tea and a cozy waiting section. The only reason this review is 4 stars and not 5 is because I waited a little over 40 minutes past my appointment time to be called back for my shampoo. I know it's hard to stay on track sometimes, but no one came over to me while I was waiting and apologized or mentioned it at all. I felt a little ignored. But the excellent head massage/shampoo made up for it and because Carmen was so great, I didn't mind the wait. read more

I've been going here since shortly after they opened. My wife convinced me that a professional stylist would do a better job then the women of Ballston Barber Shop. She was right. read more

Won a giftcard for this salon for a free haircut, so I thought I'd go and give it a try. While I was there, I decided to try them out for highlights. I was put with a junior stylist, which was fine by me based on price and previous experiences. After one round of highlights and toner that was suggested by my stylist, my hair did not look different in color at all. I was apologetic but honest, and the stylist was very sweet and accommodating to try again to get the look I had wanted. After another round of highlights and some low lights added in per her suggestion, my hair finally resembled the look I had wanted, and I was satisfied with the final product despite the extra hours and product stress applied to my hair. Be careful when viewing the salon's online prices. The + after the prices definitely rings true. I ended up paying twice this amount or more. I would not shoot this place down as a whole, nor my stylist. She was accommodating, sweet, and did a great job with the cut and styling. However, if you are looking for color, I'd make sure to get a personal recommendation for stylist before going in... or splurge for a more senior member of the staff. read more

If I could more stars I would. I have been seeing the same person for 6 years but since I have moved to Arlington it was hard to get to her. So seeing that I live so close to Jon David Salon I decided to try it out. I love the fact that I could make the appointment online and they responded back quickly. Upon entering the salon you are greeted with a smile and don't have to wait. They were all wonderful! kudos. Aracely was my stylist and she was so professional and gave me pointers. I have never received so many compliments on my hair before. She was awesome! They even call to follow up with you! I was so impressed I can't stop talking about how great this salon is. I will be back! I found a new salon :) read more

I absolutely LOVE this salon. I've lived in DC for nearly 10 years, and it took me eight of those 10 to find a stylist who consistently creates beautiful blonde highlights. Laith is a true gem! His friendly demeanor and *genuine* interest in you and the health of your hair separates him from the rest. He's given me advice for my dry flat iron-damaged hair (without hard selling products) that has helped restore its health and shine. On top of that, he's just a really nice guy! In regards to the salon itself: the staff is friendly and efficient; the atmosphere is bright and clean; and the location is conveniently located between Rosslyn and Courthouse. Highly recommend! read more

I'm a very picky person when it comes to hair stylists. So much so, that for about a year and a half I refused to step foot into a salon after a terrible haircut. This resulted to me trimming my hair at home. A few months ago, through sheer luck, I found PJ. A woman sitting next to me at a nail salon raved about PJ's ability to cut her difficult hair. I decided to give PJ a shot because my own hair was miserably unruly and needed someone who knew what they were doing (think curly + frizzy + need some layers but not too long and not too short). My first haircut with PJ went great! I left the salon feeling relieved that I had finally found someone in the DC area that could cut my hair properly. Since then, I have been back to see PJ every time. Last week, I came in for another haircut. I had been on the fence about getting highlights because, since I stopped dying about 5 years back, I enjoyed the natural color of my hair. Despite this, I wanted my hair a tad bit lighter than it already was. PJ and I agreed on partial highlights, and they turned out amazing - exactly what I wanted! They are super subtle but give my hair the extra pop of blonde that I really wanted. On the bonus side - PJ also does an amazing job with mens' hair. The first time I had my hair cut, I noticed the awesome job she did on the guy before and suggested that my boyfriend try her out as well. He has been getting his haircut with her ever since. I can't speak for the other stylists in the salon, but clearly PJ does an awesome job! I would highly recommend her. read more

I recently tried out Jon David after deciding that my usual Georgetown spot was too pricey and too hard to reach. I went in for a color and cut, and I have to say I was underwhelmed. I was satisfied with my cut, which admittedly was easy enough - just a two-inch trim on longish hair. However, I cannot say the same about my color, which is probably one of the worst I've gotten in recent years. The blonde came out streaky and so brassy that I was embarrassed to wear my hair down at work for the first few days. Even more, my hair felt drier than it ever has after coloring. It took a number of purple-shampoo washings to finally tone down the yellow. My roots looked equally unnatural, with the blonde color ending in sharp line about 1/4 inch away from my scalp. After a couple of couple of weeks, my roots were showing dramatically, and it looked like my hair hadn't been colored in over a month. Overall, I wouldn't recommend for blonde color; but, if you are looking for a low-maintenance cut in the Rosslyn area at a decent price, then Jon David may work for you. read more

As a gay male, I take my haircuts very seriously, and I'm willing to pay a higher price than normal so it looks amazing. I tried four different locations upon moving here a year ago and was disappointed to say the least. I found Jon David Salon after grabbing a coffee one Saturday morning and decided to stop in and see their availability and prices. Not only was the receptionist warm and welcoming, but they also had availability day-of, so I got my haircut right there. PROS: Definitely clean and well-organized. Stylists are very helpful and hospitable. Always satisfied with my haircut. Once my earring fell out while my hair was being rinsed and I didn't notice until weeks later. I came back for my next cut and the receptionist had kept my earring in the drawer in a sealed bag with my name on it for when I returned. CONS: Tipping is an issue since I don't often carry cash. They have an ATM on-site but has a $3.00 fee to withdraw cash, which is a bit annoying. All in all, I will continue to go here and get my hair cut as long as I am in the area. read more

I'm really impressed with the salon's customer service! I had gone to Jon David once before, to a "junior" stylist, and was happy with the haircut so I decided to return for another cut weeks later. I made an appointment with a "master" stylist (the difference is ~$15?) and brought a few pictures of what I wanted (a chin-length straight bob that didn't flip out or under). The stylist listened to what I wanted, but I wound up with a different cut altogether! It flipped out and had long layers that touched my shoulders while the rest of it was chin length. I've had this happen at other salons and so I resigned myself to pay, tip, return home, wash and restyle and hope for the best. Sometimes it looks better when you restyle your hair YOUR way. Well, it didn't get any better no matter what I tried. I called the salon the next morning to see what they could do. The girl at the desk apologized profusely, saying that the stylist I had seen was having an off day due to a family emergency and that I should come in that day to have it fixed at no cost. I went back in and was met with lots of smiles and apologies. No one made me feel bad about it at all. Another "master" stylist who was super pleasant and friendly, considering I was a returning customer and she wasn't going to get paid, took her time looking at the pictures of what I wanted and then re-cut my hair. It's now absolutely perfect. I doled out more tips, which were deserved, and thanked them for fixing the problem. I'll definitely return because of how they handled this situation. They obviously care about their customers rather than making a quick buck. read more

What can I say? I love Jon David Salon. I've gotten my hair cut by Laith and Debbie and both times I have walked away feeling like a million bucks! Thank you for making me feel beautiful! They deeply care about what you are looking for in your hair cut and they give you their honest opinions on what they think would look/work best for your type of hair. I'm so happy I found this Salon! read more

I had my hair done here yesterday with Gloria. Gloria is very experienced and my hair turned out very well. With that said, I went in expecting to spend about $120 and somehow when it was all said and done it came out to double that. I felt swindled. I had hoped to start taking better care of my hair in the future but I can't trust this salon again. I put myself in her hands trusting her and I'm very disappointed. Hair came out great but their business ethics were nonexistent. I never would have agreed to a style that came out to double my budget. read more

I was there for 3 hours and everyone who walked out of the salon had gorgeous hair... including me. I saw and HIGHLY recommend Nikki. I was really nervous to put low-lights into my platinum blonde hair. One, because it usually goes this weird greenish-gray color Two, because I immediately miss being a platinum blonde. I don't like the way low-lights look until they wash out a little. Not this time. I LOVE my hair. My low lights and highlights are perfectly balanced. They are natural looking, but not boring. My haircut is perfect too. My thin hair looks thick with lots of dimension. There is a lot of talent in that salon, and everyone was really nice. read more

I had my hair done here 2 months ago, and it was a bad experience. I wasn't planning on leaving a review, but even 2 months later I am still frustrated by what they did to my hair, so I've decided to. I requested an appointment online for partial blonde highlights with rose gold balayage, after checking the Jon David instagram account and noting that yes, their stylists do rose gold coloring. I was assigned a stylist, and assumed that she was picked because she was right for the job. The day of my appointment, I came in, again told the stylist that I wanted partial blonde highlights with rose gold balayage and showed her MANY pictures of the style/color I wanted. For a cut I was simply asking for a couple inches off and refreshed layers. The stylist worked VERY slowly, almost tentative. Even before they had to fix what they'd done, I'd already spent three hours in the chair. So, what did I get? Blonde balayage (VERY blonde), and then I was informed that they actually didn't have the right dye for rose gold. My hair was SO blonde, with no depth at all to the color, so I had to have them put lowlights in just to get it back to something I could live with. Even those were far too brown to look natural, but it was better than leaving with un-requested bleached blonde hair. They found a color that kind of looked rose gold and used that on me - it faded out by the end of the week. The lowlights faded as well, which at first I was fine with because again, they looked really bad, but now, two months later I'm left with - yup, bleach blonde hair. The CUT is also bad - she did nothing to blend the layers and I have very straight hair so they look choppy and I'm basically forced to wear my hair up every day. On top of all that, there is laddering noticeable and some darker spots in the blonde highlights that she put in, right around my face. Had I noticed before I left I would have asked them to fix, but I spent 6 hours at the salon to walk out with bad hair and was just ready to leave. The only saving grace is that they did their best to fix their mess up, spending a lot of time on me that day and multiple stylists helped out. However, my stylists initial error, and the fact that they were not prepared with the right dye for what I had requested in advance meant that I was NEVER going to walk out with what I asked for. On top of all that? It was expensive. I don't recommend this salon, and based on my experience at the Rosslyn location I wouldn't try any others either. I'm going to have to spend a ton of money, just two months after spending a ton of money, to get my hair to look like something I'm not frankly embarrassed by at another salon now. read more

I walked into Jon David Salon during my Friday afternoon walk. I was thinking about how I needed a cut that morning, and figured I'd try my luck with a walk-in appointment at what looked to be a pretty high end salon. The staff there was really nice and accommodating and paired me up with junior stylist Laura. She was really great, made me feel comfortable, and knew exactly what she needed to do with my hair. Our conversation was great, and for one of the first times ever, my hair looked great the next day! I didn't even need a settling in period. I have incredibly thick hair, and my haircut ended up being around $50. Not bad at all! It's more expensive for the experts, but for a basic cut, I'd trust any of the junior stylists. The salon itself was clean and well organized. You can tell they have loyal customers, which is always a good sign. read more

This place is clean, convenient, and excellent service. I loved how it had the feeling of a fancy salon, but with affordable prices. Bishara did my blonde highlights and he was wonderful. I've struggled for three years to find a place to get my highlights done that end up looking natural and beautiful. FINALLY I achieved this with Bishara. Can't wait for my next session. read more
