Late Saturday night I decided I wanted my hair done the next day and googled around for Dominican…read moresalons in the area. I found Margot's after quite a bit of searching and I'm so glad I did. Because it was late at night, I couldn't call to confirm shop hours so I arrived the next morning about 20 minutes before opening. Margot greeted me at the door and she was so sweet! She had me in and out in about 2 hours which is amazing for walk-in services. Ms. Margot took her time with my hair and made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process. I've found a new home salon that I 100% recommend and will definitely be going back!

I walk pass this place often. I barely see people in there. Services are not listed anywhere. So…read moreservices offered and cost is unclear. You have to ask. The stylist did not formally consult or examine my hair to tell me what she thought I needed she just started shampooing me right away after quoting price. She didn't even tell me her name or ask me mine. Or even ask if I had sensitivities and scalp problems. The lady washed my hair about three times and the scalp massage was rough and unbearable to a degree. She had very STRONG hands, uncomfortable if you aren't used to heavy scratch on your scalp. But it felt like it relaxed me I guess. No salon grade products were used on my hair... and the brand was unclear or not the actual brand used in the container. so it's unclear what they are putting in your hair. When she rolled my hair without styling product so frizz was not tamed and rollers weren't neat. So I am unsure how my hair came out bone straight. When wet the stylist comb my hair without fine tight comb from the ROOT instead of the ends and I could feel my hair snapping. Which is a big no with ethnic hair you have to detangle first with wide comb first. So the stylist did not detangle curly/ mixed ethnic hair properly. Which is shocking as this is a Dominican salon that should know how to deal with curly/ wavy hair texture. Not sure if I will go back due to lack of transparency and care around what was used on my hair. Which is a major concern.

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at this salon. I came in with long, healthy,…read morenaturally curly hair and specifically requested a curly cut with long layers and face-framing layers while keeping my length. I showed my stylist, Dinora, multiple reference photos and clearly explained exactly what I wanted. She assured me she could achieve the look. Unfortunately, the final result was nothing like what I requested. After washing my hair at home and seeing it in its natural curly state, I realized my hair had been cut much shorter than I asked for, and the face-framing layers I specifically requested were not there. I felt like my stylist cut my hair the way she wanted instead of listening to what I, as the client, had asked for. I also did not ask for excessive heat styling. During the service, my ends were repeatedly gone over with a flat iron, and afterward my curls did not feel or look the same. I left concerned that my ends had been heat damaged. I paid $140 expecting professional service and honest communication. If the hairstyle I requested could not be achieved, I believe I should have been told before any hair was cut. When I spoke with the owner, Judith, she offered a treatment and another trim, but I was not comfortable allowing the salon to cut my hair again because my biggest concern is that it is already much shorter than I wanted. I requested a refund, but it was not provided. This experience has been incredibly disappointing. I hope this salon improves communication with clients and respects what clients ask for instead of agreeing to a service they cannot deliver. This experience has caused me a great deal of emotional distress. I've cried ever since I washed my hair because it was nothing like what I asked for. My birthday is right around the corner, and instead of feeling excited and confident, I'm left feeling embarrassed and upset about my hair. I trusted this salon with my long, healthy curls, and I left feeling like my concerns and requests were ignored. I hope no one else has to go through an experience like this.

Some of the ladies are nice, but I would not recommend the salon if you are not fluent in Amharic…read more 1. I brought my own products and they still used some of their own without asking. I think she even used some shampoo after my deep conditioner. 2. I brought in a luxury brand of shampoo and she used HALF the bottle even when my hair became over saturated with product. (Less is almost always more with hydrating shampoos) 3. She kept referring to my hair as short and it's not...I thought that was weird, inaccurate, and off putting. 4. They often will use a flat iron (or try to use it) even if you request the opposite. 5. The price varies even if you always do the same service. Sadly, I just can't win with salons in the dmv. It just seems like dealing with hair envy and stylists who do what they want and not what you ask is the norm out here. True bummer here because most salons (esp luxury salons) no longer do roller sets. I will say my hair is so tangles after roller setting here. I wonder if it's because they've (not so secretly) used shampoo to wash out my hydrating conditioner. Also, when I wrapped my hair and took it out...it didn't even look like I had my hair done! Do not recommend!

Being a woman with big hair is always a challenge when it's time to find a hair dresser…read more So I moved back to the DMV and my friend-stylist moved to Myrtle Beach so I had to find a new weave healer. My first search lead me to the Silver Spring area. It was kinda far for me with my schedule. So I went off to find a new hair dresser. After looking on Yelp I found a place and a recommendation for a lady who does great color. Well my hair is above my butt and full of high lights so I need a good colorist. I came in and immediately fell in love! Josefina was nice, polite and not afraid of my hair. And she took me on the spot. I always come so they can examine my hair but her, nope she was like this is what I do. In love. Closer to home and definitely my go to. Also, important to note that this is a multi cultural salon. You have the barbershop in the front and the salon area in the back. Love it! The barber was nice, said hi and how can I help you as soon as I walked in. My last hair stylist who turned into my bestie was a black American woman. So for me anyone should be able to do all kinds of hair but in the MD area it was hard for me. A stylist is a stylist. I found that most salons were not multicultural which for a mixed girl was kinda hard. Super glad this is multicultural. Love it! Owners were so nice too btw.

Her salon is in a great, safe location. It is classy and well-appointed and clean, with comfortable sofas and chairs and vending machines. But most importantly, she doesn't cut corners on hiring the best talent. She has gifted braiders who have been with her for over a decade, and it shows in the magnificent styles they can deliver flawlessly and consistently. I've been going for over 10+ years with my 2 daughters. We are out of the salon in less than 5 hours or less, no matter how intricate our styles are. Our favorites are Fatu and Maya. They love their craft and their customers. I can't recommend Claudette's highly enough. 5-stars

The one who started out on my hair, I think her name is Philly, she is beyond outstanding, she and a few others worked on me. They are very sweet and courteous and got me out in no time.

It was hands down the best wash I've ever had. By the time I got in Zee's chair I was already feeling relaxed. See herself was kind, knowledgeable, and very skilled. She took her time to evaluate the condition of my hair, recommended a few things, and answered the many questions I asked her. She helped pick out the perfect style for an upcoming photo shoot and ensured I was happy with the style before I left. This required her to make some adjustments after the initial styling and she did so quickly and with a smile. I would highly recommend coming here if you're looking for a new stylist. The salon is only a 5 min walk from the metro stop and they have a refreshment bar inside, fans, and even little tables/trays for you to put your laptop on if you need to work during your appointment. I'll be back next month!

She made my daughter's first haircut memorable and she loves the finished product. The process was amazing but it was a bit pricey. Sophia worked really well with natural hair so I plan on going back soon for a trim.

Be Caution of Eden Salon's unauthorized charges…read more It's been a couple of weeks since Eden Salon put the $415 charge on my credit card, which includes service charges $$ that were not disclosed beforehand. I was told that the owner would call me back to discuss the issue, but she never called me back. Instead she chose to respond to my review, which did not address the issue of the unauthorized charges. This matter leads me to believe that Eden Salon cannot be trusted. If you choose to obtain Eden Salon's services request confirmation on the price. If they suggest additional services during your appointment get clarification on pricing beforehand. In my opinion, the lower price-point on their website is a tactic, used to bate customers. Such as the case with my daughter....she was told halfway through the appointment that she needed additional services for the coloring process; however, they did not mention additional costs. This is defined as a bait-and-switch tactic and is against the law in Washington DC. -Good luck out there, stay safe and aware!
