    I recommend this place if you're looking to try a new hairstyle. I came in with a general idea of…read morewhat I wanted in my style is Shayne perfectly executed my idea. The studio has a calm environment that allows for very active feedback as you are getting your haircut. Overall a wonderful experience and I will be returning!

    This was a strange, disappointing experience. I'm 60 and been to hair salons in Boston, Dallas, and…read moreAtlanta, and never seen anything like it before. I live in East Metro Atlanta and was accompanying my college-aged daughter to Washington Studio for a first-time visit. My daughter booked online, and was required to reserve a new client appointment, which was described as including extra time for initial consult. The rate shown for a new client appointment was the same as the cost for a long hair/one hour cut. For the stylist she wanted to see, the starting cost for each of those was $95. My daughter has long curly hair and did research to find a salon and stylist she felt was a good fit for her. She included a description of what she was looking for with her booking request. She got an email and text confirmation the next day. We drove from Covington to Athens on a weekday for a 1pm appointment. The trip took a little longer than it was supposed to. We discussed calling the salon at 1 to let them know we were close, but since we'd be there before 1:15, we decided there was no need. It took us a few minutes to locate the salon once we parked. My daughter went straight in, while I paid the parking meter. While I was still gathering my purse and phone from the car, my daughter returned and said, "they say the stylist is too busy for me and they have a strict 15 late cancellation policy." I said, "but we weren't even 15 minutes late, were we?" We checked our phones, it was 1:19. My daughter had spoken to the receptionist, booked a new appointment for Friday, and walked back to the car. I didn't understand how 15 minutes could result in cancellation without even a discussion with the stylist as to what my daughter needed done. (My daughter does not require drying and styling after cuts, which by itself saves 15 minutes compared to what I'd need.) When I went in to ask, the owner of the salon said it was a strict policy because the stylist wouldn't be able to fit in the rest of her clients that day. I asked how new clients could know that was a policy, and she insisted it was posted clearly in the reservation system. No, it's not. The system states there is a 24 hour cancellation policy, nothing about being late (see photo). What I found especially odd was that at no point did my daughter or I see the stylist herself. She was not working in the main area. She didn't come to speak to my daughter to explain anything, or even to spend a few minutes to talk about what my daughter was looking for. Somehow, she didn't have 15 minutes for a consult, or even 2 minutes to say hi, even though we'd reserved a new client time slot, which was supposedly an hour of her time. (If she was that booked up, where was she? We waited a bit to speak to the owner, so we would have seen the stylist at her chair if she was there.) The receptionist said she tried to call us at 1:12. We were finding parking at that time and missed the call. (What would she have told us at that point? "Unless you hit our door in 180 seconds, you're cancelled"?). My guess is the stylist needed to run an errand or get lunch. But regardless, the complete lack of flexibility and apology on the part of the salon owner was galling. She was very clear we were at fault, not her reservation system or her stylist. She could have said and done a lot of things to demonstrate some actual sympathy for our situation, which would have left us with a less negative impression of the salon. Instead, it was very clear this business already has all the customers it needs and doesn't care if it alienates a potential new one.
