I rarely leave negative reviews, but I feel obligated to share my experience…read more I went to Kate for color, highlights, and a keratin treatment. Before leaving the salon, I was given aftercare instructions, which I followed exactly. After washing my hair for the first time using the shampoo I was instructed to use, the color turned orange instead of the caramel tone we had discussed with no sign of keratin. I contacted Kate about the problem, and she agreed that I should come back for a corrective appointment. Unfortunately, the corrective appointment made my hair significantly worse rather than fixing it. Afterward, my hair had multiple uneven shades, patchy highlights, excessive breakage, and became extremely dry, brittle, and overprocessed. My scalp also became irritated after the chemical services. The attached photos show the condition of my hair after these appointments. My hair was also left feeling fried and damaged instead of smooth and healthy. After the unsuccessful correction, I continued trying to resolve the issue directly with the salon. Kate ultimately issued only a partial refund after multiple discussions, leaving me responsible for hundreds of dollars despite the failed services and the condition of my hair. A corrective appointment and a partial refund would not have occurred if there had been no issue to address. The owner has publicly disputed my experience. I stand by this review. I have photographs documenting the results after my appointments, along with records of the corrective appointment, our communications, and the partial refund. I trusted this salon with my hair, and I am now dealing with damage that will take months to grow out and repair. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Tilila Hair Design.

Yesterday was a big day for me. I got a haircut. For the first time in 4 months. For a person with…read morea short haircut this is a long time! I went to the same hair stylist I've been with for the past 10+ years. His name is Guillaume Choquet. He is one of two co-owners of O'Salon. You can find him on IG https://www.instagram.com/guillaumeosalon/ All these years I've been getting compliments on my perfect haircut. My daughter, with her long blond curls, would never go anywhere else for her cuts and highlights. All her Georgetown friends followed her and swear by Guillaume's talent. He holds a BA in Salon Arts from Paris (serious 4 years education, not a few months of training American hair dresses go through). He then practiced for years in France. He has been working in DC for over a quarter of a century. COVID side of it: for rather different reasons, but both my husband and I are in high group risk when we talk COVID. We do not leave the house except for careful walks outside in masks. We only very recently started to carefully see any our friends, not more that once a week, max 2 people at a time, never anyone closer than 3 meters, always outside. And yet, I dared to go to O'salon after I learned about Guillaume's protocol. They follow all CDC guidelines to the dot. There are never more than two-tree clients total in two large areas. They change A/C filters and hair disposal filters frequently. They sterilize everything non-stop. Of course, everyone must wear well fitted masks. To be extra safe, I made my appointment for the first slot, 7:30AM on Tuesday. This way, I was the first and the only client in the salon after their two days weekend. There were only three of us in the whole salon: Guillaume, his cleaning lady, and myself. He took the payment himself. No touching or signing on card scanner of course.

With the humidity we've gotten this summer in DC , my hair looked like I got electrocuted everyday so I really needed this treatment! I was able to get an appointment within a week so it was nice they were able to accommodate on short notice. The consultation was over the phone to determine the best treatment for your hair situation. I opted for the Botox keratin treatment, which started at $299 and goes up depending on your length of hair. Catch 22 for me: I want to grow out my hair but it came at a cost of an extra $150 because of the length of my hair so that's already $450. The individual who did my hair was very good. He was thorough in describing every step of the process. I ended up buying the products which was $100+ (shampoo, conditioner, treatment, serum, and leave in conditioner). I think I could've opted out of it because I compared the ingredients with the products I have at home and most of the ingredients were the same. All in all, glad the treatment has worked thus far in. If you are able to front the money and are in dire need of this treatment, I would suggest it.

It was the most upsetting waste of $240.00 plus $50.00 tip. My hair is dry, unlike the many times I've had the treatment from many other technicians. BUT WORST OF ALL MY HAIR IS CURLY!!! I was so disappointed, so I called Farmand the owner. He gave me a bunch of excuses as though I haven't had the treatment many,many times. He said they wanted to stand by their work. Utter nonsense. After 2 phone calls and several tests, in which he hardy let me speak, he offered, get this, $30. off the $330. Botox Keratin to rectify the useless procedure received, I'd already spent $240.00 + tip. I totally respect how hard good business people work to make their's a high quality and consumer friendly business. I am delighted to share those names with my friends. So it is only fair to warn you all about this less than honorable man. Don't be fooled by his false, charming manner. It means nothing. See the $290.00(with a generous tip) photo, the nothing that was accomplished.The technician was excellent, the product not. He said they do not refund the payment. But as mentioned so ungenerously offered a $30.00 discount.

Wanted to shout out Lily their social media manager and also just the customer service all around they're wonderful kind and welcoming. Georgetown can have a reputation of being snobby or out of reach for people but you do not feel that here, they are so inviting and complementary! I would highly recommend, my little sister even comes here and she was extremely anxious and shy, this place is so warm she has come here by herself and booked by herself. So I really appreciate them bc she really suffers from panic attacks and it says a lot that she feels comfortable and safe coming alone!

But, I always come back to DC for Sushada. If you give her a few pictures of the "look" you want, she will capture the essence of it and give you a cut even better than anticipated. She is somehow able to understand what you want and make the most flattering cut possible. For my long-haired friends: look no further, Sushada will work miracles by keeping the length you want while cleaning up the ends. If you're wondering whether you need a nice haircut during covid-times, the answer is YES. Sushada made me feel like a person again after months of braids and messy buns. Even if it is just for myself, I will be wearing my fabulous hair down all around the house. Please find my attached picture. I asked for an "updated Brooke Shields" look to go with my covid eyebrows and she DELIVERED. It was exactly what I wanted and more. This salon is also extremely safe and adheres to strict covid safety guidelines. Everyone (including the salon staff) is temperature-checked upon arrival, and social distancing is in place. Sushada carefully disinfected my chair before and after my visit. Blanca did an incredible job washing my hair and massaging my scalp. I was concerned that Blanca's gloves would pull at my hair, but I honestly couldn't tell she was wearing them. Something strange happened with my previous yelp review for Sushada, but I very much recommend giving her a try. You will probably become a Sushada-lifer like me.
