    We all know how hard it is to find the right stylist. I've frequented many of the top salons in the DMV and I always got quality work - but I never felt like it was exactly what I wanted, or the toning didn't quite suit my skin tone, etc. I'm so excited I found Ellie! I started seeing her before her solo career, and I was more than happy to follow her. The thing I most love about Ellie is the time she takes to really understand what you're looking for. She asks great probing questions, talks you through options, asks you if you like this or that more, and so on. Her patience is phenomenal. Her work with "lived in" color is top notch. I LOVE my hair when I walk away from an appointment. I send my friends pictures because I love how I look! I highly recommend. PS- her products smell AMAZING, and her head massages at the sink are simply the cherry on top.

    Elle is literally the only stylist I will ever trust with my hair! She is always so thorough and patient even though I am probably every hairstylists worst nightmare (my hair is naturally very dark). Despite this, she managed to help me achieve the perfect ashy/grey color of my dreams! Elle provides amazing customer service and a safe space for fellow members of the LGBTQ+ community--I genuinely cannot recommend On Canvas enough!!

    Friday nite late, I'm in my hotel room and realized how much I hate my hair and how it looked…read more Glass Door Salon, Noah and YELP saved me. A late night email and I woke with a response of yes, we can get you in today, Saturday. Hallelujah!!! A little juggling and we made it happen. I am now the very happy person with a great looking haircut with plans for color soon! Who knew you had to fly from Houston to get someone who knows what they are doing with hair, especially old hair that isn't long and flowey..... Noah thanks for the magic touch today!

    Consultation was rushed and stylist cut off way too much hair. She kept pushing to do a shampoo,…read morebut I kept reiterating I don't want or need it, I just washed my hair this morning. $49 seems way too much for just a plain trim. All I wanted was less than 1 inch off, which has been the case for literally every other trim I've ever had in my life, and it definitely seemed like a full 3 inches was taken off. After taking off so much hair, it didn't look even, but at that point, I didn't even want them to touch my hair and take off even more. Felt like no care or attention was given whatsoever to what I actually wanted. I've been here 3 different times with 3 different stylists and every time, it's been the exact same problem. I thought it was because it was only an apprentice the first time, and then a Level 1, but this time, to shell out more money for a Level 2 stylist and somehow get an even worse cut, I'm done. It's evident that they don't care about essential services such as regular trims for healthy growth. They only seem to care about the higher spending clients who choose to damage their hair with excessive heat and chemical treatments. There's obviously no knowledge here whatsoever of what healthy hair is actually supposed to look like. If all you want is healthy growth, don't waste your time or money here. In what universe does "a trim" somehow turn into 3 inches? Other salons have always done half an inch, maybe an inch at most. Also, pushing people to get a trim every 2 months is insane. Never had an issue before with every 6 months. My hair was not at all unhealthy and my hair did NOT have a full 3 inches of split ends. Every other stylist I've had has said it's exceedingly healthy and never took off nearly that much. Please train your people to actually DISCUSS with the clients before they get right to chopping. It does say on the appointment that it's supposed to be a 15 minute consultation, but it definitely was not. The entire time, I felt rushed and dismissed. I was literally telling her how much I was looking forward to getting an elaborate braid done soon. Now, it looks way too short to do what I was planning. Did my own braid the next day and it looks and feels like months of progress have been thrown in the trash, plus it looks choppy and bad. Thanks a lot. Checked their website for details about their stylists. "Level 2 stylist" Melanie's description says: "If you need help with color correction, modern balayage, or highlights of all types, I especially look forward to working with you!" So... guess they're admitting that they only care about the higher ticket items? Maybe don't bother to "trim" people's hair, then, if all you're going to do is give them a hack job, taking off 3 inches and still not even managing to make it even. I'm genuinely not sure if she did this monstrosity of a hack job out of spite or if she's just insanely incompetent. I deeply regret ever setting foot here. What a joke. Come on down to the Glass Door Guillotine, y'all ‍
