    Fairfax City R.

    A nice and clean salon for the residents of Fairfax city located on Old Pickett Rd. A very caring and knowledgeable staff who knows how to cut, style and color hair professionally. I went there for digital perms. I was satisfied with the end results. Perms were large and really pretty. Also the price was reasonable for the perm. It was worth coming here to get my hair done. It is a perfect place to digitally perm your hair no matter the size and at reasonable prices. Check out their photo.

    Finally went to check out this hair salon that I've passed many times on my way to and from Lotte Plaza in Fairfax. Located on the second floor of the building that houses Kama Wedding Studios, the door opens noisily with a "front door open" notification for the people upstairs. Walked up the stairs to an open room on my left where 4 Korean women warmly greeted me and asked me if I wanted to get my hair done. I went on a Tuesday evening at 6:30pm, just looking for a list of their services but they didn't have one printed out. Nicely though, they explained to me that they were running a special 20% off of all services and explained how much everything was. The studio was empty at the time but they say that it fills up on the weekends. I was there an hour before closing but they insisted that that was enough time to get something done. I was primarily interested in the digital perm they had to offer but I've had one before and ended up with frizzy poodle-like hair and was worried. They brought me over to pictures and made sure to ask several times if I was sure that was what I wanted and they guided me to a hair style they believed would look good on me. It felt like I had four Asian aunts looking after me and while they were insistent, they didn't make me feel overwhelmed. They sat me down and Miss Joo started cutting the dead ends off my hair right away. From start to finish, the whole process took an hour, including hair cut, perm, wash and dry. The digital perm machine was interesting, tons of wires coming out of a metal rod on a rolling cart but it did the job quickly and with little mess. While she was taking care of my hair, they gave me magazines to read, a pillow to rest them on top of and some green tea. I was happy when it resulted in loose curls and healthy-looking hair. They put a really pretty smelling conditioner on it (from Korea) that you had the option of buying for $20. I chose not to and they didn't insist. The entire thing was only $120 with the discount they are running. I have to say that was a great price for the service, I haven't seen anything less around this area and it was quick. The ladies were really nice and I had a pleasant experience. Today, after washing and styling on my own, I'm liking the perm more, since it's calmed down and looks more natural. If you're looking for a place where they listen to what you want and take care of you, check this place out.

    No curls left on the 4th day.

    Great haircuts for my husband and me; we walk in without reservations and don't have to wait long, if at all. Very nice stylists

    I won't go there again. My haircut was terrible. So many random layers make me look bad. I don't think the lady knows what she's doing.

I came back at set time and they whisked me off to get shampooed right away. I only waited a couple of minutes while my hair story guru was finishing up with his previous client. I loved that the staff checked in and kept me updated. Things were clean and they were able to tell that I had a morning and may not have been the most talkative, which I super appreciated! The place is no frills and it's not fancy but my guy knew was he was doing. I showed him some inspiration photos and he got to work. The whole experience was about an hour from start to finish and I love my new cut. I didn't see any prices and didn't even ask! LOL. Imagine how surprised I was when they told me my cut was only $53! I happily swiped my card and tipped my shampoo lady and guy in cash and walked happily over next door to Ranch 99 to get some lunch. Will definitely be back as it was a steady stream of people coming and calling to making appointments!

    I came in asking for regular bangs and even showed a clear photo. He asked if I wanted curtain…read morebangs. I thought this was a language barrier situation and that he understood I meant short, straight bangs like the photo. Instead, I walked out with long curtain bangs, nothing like what I asked for. He did check in with me throughout the process, but it was confusing. I explicitly said I wanted my bangs shorter, yet he continued cutting them longer than what I had shown or said. I'm not sure where the communication broke down, but the end result was the opposite of what I asked for. He also asked if I wanted to thin my hair. I didn't know exactly what that meant, but he said it would look better. I hesitated, but when he suggested "just a little," I agreed. Unfortunately, he thinned out so much that now I have tons of short, frizzy pieces sticking out everywhere. Again, nothing like the photo I showed. It will take years to grow my hair out to fix this. On top of that, he didn't check my face before sending me out the door. I left the salon with tiny shredded hairs stuck all over my face, like I had just walked through a hair storm. I told him explicitly what I wanted, but the haircut I received was completely different. I went in for regular bangs and long layers and left with super long curtain bangs and thinned-out hair.

For context the stylist I've been to for years is based in Baltimore and with how traffic can get I can't justify spending 40% of my saturday going to Baltimore to get my hair done. So I began the search looking for a new hairstyle salon. Tried Alexandria, Springfield, even Fairfax. But none have provided what I need and certainly not justifiable of the price it commanded. So I tried HairSocial because I found it on Google and I liked I can book online. My hair appointment consists of the following: Wash, Blow Dry, and an undercut. Sometimes I'll get it flat-ironed depending on the occasion. So I booked 4 days in advance and when I arrived for my appointment I had to wait 20 mins after my actual time (for context it was a Sunday afternoon and no one else was in the shop except for one customer). When I was seated I was only given a haircut and nothing else despite asking for a hair wash and a blowout. Considering I had to put a downpayment online to book the appointment I naturally felt bamboozled. They offered to do what I originally asked but they said I had to wait an hour. I didn't have time as I had a family dinner I had to attend so I decided to go home and wash my own hair. Before I left, the front desk offered to refund me on my card and then said no and could only offer me a credit. The credit was tied to my account yet the credit isn't available when you book online you can only access the credit if you call to set up an appointment. Extremely disappointed but the stylist did a great job with my haircut. I'm just disappointed that I didn't get what I paid for at a reasonable time. Thankfully the management of the loc in Tysons Corner set things right and as a result despite this location being closer to me I go out of my way to visit the HairSocial in Tyson's Corner (that review will be coming shortly).

My hair is naturally brown, but I have grays coming in, which makes coloring even trickier because I need gray coverage while still keeping dimensional highlights that look natural. Heart took the time to really understand my hair and, over the years, developed the perfect formula for me. She somehow manages to cover the grays beautifully without it looking harsh or obvious as it grows out, while also keeping my highlights dimensional and free of the brassy/orange tones. What's even more impressive is how much healthier my hair has become since seeing her. She's incredibly knowledgeable about hair health and has taught me so much about how to properly care for my hair over the years. My mom also goes to her and has learned a lot from her as well. One thing I really appreciate is that the client never feels pressured to buy products or upsold on things you don't need. She genuinely loves what she does and truly cares about helping people understand and care for their hair. The biggest game changer for me has been her Hair Blessings leave-in conditioning spray. It has genuinely helped heal both my hair and my daughter's hair, and my hair has never been healthier or more manageable. After more than a decade as her client, I can confidently say Heart is exceptionally talented at both color, cut and hair care.
