There I was; ascending up the stairs to my appointment. I'd opted for a sew-in w/ leave out and an organic scalp wash experience. Listen, I can make this review absolutely ridiculous; and I intend to. However, I want to get down to the hot points: 1. Why is this the exact salon of my dreams? How yall do that? 2. Is it just me or do you feel love upon entry? 3. I know you ain't just lay a luxurious blanket upon my bodice while also sitting me in a massage chair. Laying special scrub and tea upon my scalp.. this is a sensory overload.. imma let you finish. 4. Why am I floating on cloud 9 after my hair wash? Do you need my money? 5. This salon is hitting on all cylinders and I'm overwhelmed with goodness. Please, don't stop serving me. 6. Now we in this braid down for the install and it's serious. Feels like a geometry class and someone is taking the AP course. Its getting technical. 7. Here we go with the major event.. The hair install and from the conversation, sour sop tea and overall authentic interaction; I'm feeling more cared for by the second. 8. Girl who made this tea and why aren't you selling this? 9. Consulting with me and asking pertinent questions gone make me fall in love... too late.. 10. Baby, you ain't have to cut my sew-in, tussle curl it and send me in my way like that. That was exceptional. Overall: I'm sitting on my couch, in my house, just 1 hr after leaving the salon. Bonnet on just how Ngina (my stylist) told me. There are so many things I can say. I already did above but to add good measure; this is an experience salon. A moment to give great pause and allow a fully staffed beauty team to treat you. The seamless care and consideration I got today made me feel elated to pay my bill. Do you need my money? I shall sleep and bask in these memories. I've already set my appointment for the end of the month. I'm missing you already.. Now, I know I didn't drop photos on you.. just know im serious about protecting my likeness. This place deserves all the acclaim that's coming their way. A full head to toe Beauty Service (hair, body, nails, toes, wax, sauna. I'm missing a few services. I'm sure of it. All that to say, ah yo go get taken care of. Arrive to a sensory, aromatic overload of goodness. Now, imma go to bed, floating on sunshine. Ngina, thank you for restoring so much within me in one hair style. Happy Birthday Sweet Darling and thank you for creating a space fit for me. ; read more

Blown away! I'd never been to or heard of this beautiful spa in Brentwood, but baybeeee, what a gem! I booked a regular pedi and gel mani with Alayna. Had no idea what to expect. I received confirmations beforehand and the staff even checked to see if I needed anything else. LOVE. I get there and OMG. It's serene, clean, and a good-smelling machine. It smelled FIRE throughout. Not overwhelming but so pleasant. The decor was stunning. So pretty and luxurious. But really, the service? TUHHHH. INCREÍBLE. From the moment I walked in and was greeted by the women at the front desk, onward, every single employee who walked by or guided me from point A to point B was sooo kind. This is big for me: EVERYONE SPOKE. Anyone working here who crossed my line of vision SPOKE TO ME kindly and in a welcoming way. They do nails, hair, massages, all types of things - it's a wholeeee spa and the owner (obviously a Black woman and bosssssss) did her thing here. Now, as for my mani/pedi: also great. Haha. If you were expecting something different, I have nothing for you. Alayna did a fantastic job and took her time. They have Dazzle Dry! She was thorough and even made product recommendations for my feet since I do so much yoga. I can't wait to come back. It's so unsuspecting outside but the inside is incredible. read more

The salon itself is very aesthetically pleasing, beautifully designed, clean, and put together nicely. That said, the location feels a bit sketchy, which is something to be aware of. Also, it's paid street parking. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unfortunately, my experience with my stylist, Whitney, was extremely disappointing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the start, she was unwelcoming and came across as rude.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] During my appointment, she repeatedly spoke loudly over me to other stylists, which felt dismissive and unprofessional. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was little effort to make me feel comfortable or valued as a client.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]What stood out most was her demeanor throughout the service. Her tone and communication regarding my hair process and results were not only unhelpful, but also came across as condescending.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A salon experience should feel relaxing and collaborative, this was the opposite. Based on my experience, I would not recommend booking with her, unless you're in the mood to want to get physically aggressive. While the salon has a great look, the service I received did not match the standard I expected. read more

I have been a loyal client at Studio Chique for almost 2 years, and the luxury experience never disappoints. The salon and spa is pristine, high-end and welcoming from the moment you step through the door. The owner, Ngina Thomas, sets an incredible standard for elite customer service and professionalism. Every service I have received has always been phenomenal. In addition they use top-tier products that keep my hair looking healthy and vibrant. If you want a VIP salon and spa experience with top-tier talent in the Washington,DC area, I highly recommend Ngina and her amazing team at Studio Chique! read more

I got mostly all the services and still have more to try. Hair, nails, feet, eyebrows, facial, massage, silk press. As I walked in I was greeted with very kind smiles. ALL the girls were so accommodating, humble, and professional! The place is extremely clean and the esthetic is something you dont wanna miss. The owner Ngina gave me those biggest genuine hug when she met me I almost cried because I needed that. My hair was very detangled and matted and she made sure I left there looking brand new. My hair is brought back to life and I'm beyond pleased. Feels good to support your people and get treated with love and patience. I'm a truck driver so I cant make it every 2 weeks but this will be my home forever once a month. Every woman with each service went above and beyond for me I RECOMMEND 10 OUT OF 10 YOU HEAR ME. DONT WAIT GO!!!!!! read more

Best hydra facial in DC!! They were absolutely amazing! This is the best Salon and Spa in DC! I was able to get my hair done by the one and only Ngina, nails done by Alayna (organic nail polish that dries quickly) and bikini wax. Sade did a fantastic scalp cleanse! It was all so amazing! read more

Where else would I be aside from Studio Chique? I may be a little biased and I also love a good gatekeeping because I love being able to get my appointments! I'm currently being styled by the Owner and Master Stylist of Studio Chique! From the moment you walk in--you instantly melt into luxury! This is indeed an experience and I've been getting my hair done by this phenomenal woman for decades so believe me when I say this...it's deeper than hair. This place keeps me coming back because every single time I am deeply satisfied with my service. Also, if you peep that orange drink in the back--it's their signature spritzer that is TO DIE FOR! [[HIGHLIGHT]]I've been pampered the entire time being here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not even just snack wise but the staff is super attentive and friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As much as I want to gatekeep, I can't. read more

I'm prefacing this with the fact that all I get is a wash, blow dry and trim. But I also have to reiterate that all I get is a wash, blowdry and trim.... This is my second time getting this service in a month. The first time, a woman washed my hair, put something in it, had me sit under the dryer, washed that out, then Ikea blow dried my hair so beautifully and even said she likes to do a quality blowdry so the trim is better. This time... I've started this review before I've even gotten my trim bc if all you get is a wash, blowdry, and trim, the service is more than half over after the blowdry. And why was my 4b hair being blowdried in huge sections, meaning if you went through half way w the drier on the huge sections by the time you came back to put in the other 50% of work my 4b hair is DRYING. Meaning it is now of couuuurse not going to blowdry smoothly and will snap and break off. I know that, the woman who did my hair had to have known that.. but why was my whole head of 4b hair blowdried this way.. if all you get is a wash, blowdry, and trim.. and to sit on the couch and feel the puffy roots?? If I was my mother I would've stopped the service and ask if someone else could do it.. I am definitely disappointed in my service today but that said, all I got was a wash, blowdry and trim. Great playlist and I love the new location, just disappointed in my service today. read more

I'll be honest...over the years I've had a bit of a roller coaster of experiences coming here and at one point in time, wasn't sure that I would return. But over the years I've also seen a lot of changes in the business when it comes to consistency in professionalism. It's always been clear that the owner values this, but I think it may have taken some time for some of these issues to resolve themselves. One of game changers for me was when I started going to Aloni as my stylist. My best friend would always rave about her and after having an experience that I thought was my last straw, I booked with Aloni and have never turned back since. Aloni really cares about her clients, is so knowledgable, professional and personable. She takes the time to ask questions about what you want, don't want, like or don't like without any judgement. But she's still very honest and won't suggest anything that could potentially compromise your hair health. She is an absolute breath of fresh air and I never leave anything less than happy with my results; I always feel like my money was well spent from start to finish. Also, the new location is absolutely gorgeous and is being run like a well oiled machine. I love all the cute touches in decor and comfort - from the beautiful bathroom to the coffee bar (with treats!) I've just had a lovely experience from start to finish consistently now for well over a year and am happy I stuck it out (and discovered Aloni!) read more

If you have a disability, I would not recommend this salon. In my experience, it was not very accessible or accommodating to customers with mobility needs. The service also fell far short of the luxurious experience that was advertised. Although I arrived on time for my appointment, I still had to wait an excessively long time before being seen. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I love Studio Chique!

What a place! I had the most amazing Hydrafacial at Studio Chique ~ Luxury Salon & Wellness Spa!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was incredible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was pleasantly surprised that they have a cafe (I think they call it Cafe Chique). So cute! I enjoyed a matcha latte during my VIP lounge session. The BEST luxury wellness spa experience ever. It felt like I was at a resort but right in the heart of Washington DC. Now I'm glowing and rested. In my uber ready for the weekend! I booked my k-tip appointment for next month too! I was looking for the best k-tips in DC for over a month now! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sooooo happy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I wish I could make this up... On Friday, I scheduled a body service at this "luxury" Black-owned spa and they discovered, after keeping me waiting on the table for 10 minutes, that they DID NOT HAVE THE SUPPLIES to even do the service! Which was insane, because this was a confirmed appointment...I didn't just walk in and catch them off guard! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The aesthetician and receptionist offered many apologies and promised to comp the service if I could reschedule. I reluctantly agreed to come back the next day.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The next day, the SAME receptionist welcomed me back, glad to "make it right." The service was fine and I TIPPED my aesthetician. But when I went to check out, a new receptionist asked which card TO PAY WITH. The original receptionist (who was still there) then informed me that "the owner" would not comp the service. They then scrambled to find me a "discount," as if the "owner," who was obviously aware of the situation, offered nothing for my wasted time, gas, or poor experience at her "luxury" spa. This was UNBELIEVABLE! Had they told me BEFORE the service, I would have walked out! (which is likely why they didn't) In the end, they gave me a whole 20% discount and I paid it just to avoid arguing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I calmly told them the whole incident showed a LACK OF INTEGRITY and requested that the "owner" call me personally to discuss.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Since it is now TUESDAY and I haven't heard a word, I just thought that everyone should know that "luxury" isn't about a nice building. Luxury is being PREPARED to serve clients and having the integrity to own YOUR mistakes and make it right. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I've supported Studio Chique since the "old" building and often overlooked things not being "fancy" because the service was good and I was always treated well. But after this, I will not be back...they need to take it back to the basics.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I have been a loyal client of this salon for 8 years, but unfortunately, I will not be returning after a deeply disappointing experience regarding their new "concierge" messaging system and pricing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This afternoon, I accidentally missed an appointment for the first time in 8 years. However, I never received the typical reminder that I usually do via text (or at one point call).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I asked the receptionist this, she responded "you opted out of reminders".[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It turns out their new messaging system bundles essential appointment reminders with aggressive marketing for services I don't use (like lipo). Because I unsubscribed from what appeared to be spam, I was stripped of my appointment notifications without warning.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As a result, I was charged $160 for the full price of the service despite asking about rescheduling Suffice it to say I will not be returning. PS the cost of a silk press and trim has risen from $65 to $160 during my time here. This increase far outpaces inflation and, frankly, doesn't match the level of service or communication currently being provided. read more

Studio Chique is yet another gem in the Brookland/Woodbridge neighborhood. They offer a number of services to get you pampered, relaxed, and looking and feeling your best. Staff were extremely friendly, greeting you on arrival, welcoming you with water, and making sure you were relaxed. The upstairs (entry level) had more of the salon vibe with upbeat music playing. The downstairs was elegant and relaxing with light music, dim lighting, and wall waterfalls. I came for a massage and while initially skeptical due to it being higher priced than my usual place, it was well worth the premium. The room was so relaxing, masseuse was fantastic (admittedly, it was so relaxing that I fell asleep), and I left feeling like new. This will become my regular spot for massages and I'll have to check out their other services! read more

I have never experienced anything like this salon and spa. It is an elevated experience from top to bottom. The minute you walk in, you get the vibe. The first floor is an open concept. It's spacious. Clients aren't on top of each other. The space is not only comfortable but calming. I'm visiting from out of town so went by the reviews to find a hair salon. I have a bob with highlights which were done by someone else. The owner let me know the look I was going for is not all the way there. I'm walked in thinking all fine as wine already. She took control and finessed my look. I couldn't have envisioned. She perfected my color and my cut. My hair is laid out! read more

I had the pleasure for the first time in participating in the Studio Chique experience. I have been a 9 plus year customer at Robert Andrews . I came across Studio Chique browsing on IG . [[HIGHLIGHT]]I saw the owner offering more than hair services to her clients . It's one thing to offer talent , but when your customer service and natural love for people is added it's an experience that anyone would pay for[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . My massage specialist Tia was excellent, very intentional and awesome personality. I will be booking her once a month now . [[HIGHLIGHT]]Her respect for the owner and how she runs her business speaks volume.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I shared with her that it was the owner that made me book the appointment. As an entrepreneur myself I know what it takes to run a successful business and it's not always easy . It takes prayer, God guidance and a team that share your vision . I'm thankful for Studio Chique being a wellness place to women and men to be poured into not just in beauty but also in spirit . Thank you for ministering and giving me confirmation to what God is spreading showing my husband and I . [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you looking for a spa with great customer service . great atmosphere, excellent staff, black owned and a believer. I urge you to book your appointment , you definitely won't regret it[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . Thank you again to the staff @ Studio Chique you ladies rock , see you again soon . read more

Studio Chique is unlike any salon or spa in Washington, DC. I enjoyed a Hydrafacial, a matcha latte from Café Chique, and time in the wellness lounge all in one visit.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Claiming that I am a false reviewer and not in your database--without asking for the email, telephone number, or name I provided to confirm my identity--makes you look unprofessional, slow, or like you are hiding something.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Your response speaks for itself and shows a lack of integrity, because making a judgment without confirmation is either unprofessional or you are just lying.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Also, mentioning 30 years of experience while having so many bad reviews is an insult to yourself; you should not have mentioned it in your response to me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] To prove that I have been to your establishment, I will share a few details, and the fact that I must do so makes you look like a liar. Upon walking into Studio Chique, the reception desk is on the left on the main floor. The hair stylists are also on this floor. Spa treatments are downstairs. To get to your station from the main floor, I had to walk up one flight of stairs. Although you are upstairs, it's an open area like a balcony from which I was able to look down and see the main floor with the reception desk and the other hair stylists. Upstairs, where you are located, there is 1 or 2 sinks on the left, along with two chairs with mirrors for both you and your assistant. (Your assistant does the braids for your sew-ins.) Also on the left is your office, which is much smaller than it appears on social media. The restroom is in your office, with a shower to the left of the toilet and sink. The "secure area" you are referring to, where you store customers' belongings, is in your office. Now, all this "Kingdom business" you are talking about is a hot mess. I have never been to a church that serves Patron, Firebird, and other alcoholic beverages. I thought prophets and ministers of the gospel of Jesus Christ were supposed to live holy lives and influence others to do the same. Clearly, that is not you, because your preaching contradicts the way you do business. Also, stop blaming everything on "the enemy," the devil. You are giving him credit for something he has no part in. The enemy that is attacking you is yourself. This will not change until you take accountability for your actions. No one is perfect, so grow up and be mature enough to admit that you dropped the ball and try to do better. You claim to forgive me, but I hope you forgive yourself for such narcissistic behavior. I can't imagine the number of people you have truly hurt within your 30 years of business, some of whom I see in the reviews. Let this and other bad reviews be a learning experience for you to grow and do better. Start with the woman in the mirror and change your ways. Lastly, the reason I called you double-minded and a counterfeit in my last review is that only a false prophet would preach about holiness and give good prophecies to people while encouraging them to drink strong alcoholic beverages. The concept of a bar in a salon with a spa is a great idea, but not for a prophetess, priest, and minister of the gospel. You need to get your priorities straight. A real friend would call this out and tell you your actions are delusional. So that you don't dare say I lied about you having a bar and service strong alcoholic beverages in your salon, I've attached photos of what you were silly enough to post on your instagram page while telling the people to repent of their sins. Ngina can't say she serves non-alcoholic beverages because we can see the bottle of Patron and fire bird in 2 of the attached photos. Per her last response the photos show different. read more

I tried this salon after an online recommendation because I was looking for a new place to get my haircut and styled. The salon itself is very clean, aesthetically pleasing, and overall a nice atmosphere. The service I recieved was less than what I had hoped. There was some confusion between the young lady who shampooed my hair and the stylist on whether to blow dry my hair before sitting in the stylists seat. I think the stylist in general wasn't really aware of the service that I booked which was a haircut (more than just a trim). Once my hair had been blow dried and I sat with the stylist and explained what I wanted, she said she would've left my hair wet had she known (which I thought too). She then fully dried my hair and cut my hair dry which isn't something I've had done before. The stylist was understanding and kind to me and I genuinely think did her best given what I think was miscommunication or just not being clear on the appointments purpose and my hair type. After the haircut and style was complete, the stylist was kind enough to ask the owner/manager to discount it as she didn't feel it was her best work which I appreciated! The stylist and I both agreed that it probably wasn't the best haircut, which isn't a great way to feel leaving a salon but I still liked it. Overall, I'm not sure if I would return here but if I did, I would probably just only get my hair styled and not cut or enjoy one of the other services the salon has to offer like massages, facials, etc. read more

I typically don't write reviews, but my experience warrants one. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I had an appointment scheduled yesterday ahead of an evening gala. The morning of my appointment, I received an automated email and text confirming a new stylist, without any direct communication or explanation.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Having worked with multiple stylists at Studio Chique previously, I am aware that both quality and service can vary. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Being reassigned without notice, particularly on the day of an important event, was less than ideal.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I contacted the salon, the receptionist was professional and informed me that my original stylist could not make it in, which I understood.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]That said, a proactive phone call or text prior to rebooking would have been appreciated.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]While at my appointment the receptionist made a genuine effort to ensure I had a good experience, which I valued.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately, a positive experience was not the outcome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As I was getting up from the chair, the stylist's phone received a text message from another stylist, Whitney, containing a derogatory comment referring to me as "your client in your chair with that dumbass face." The message was visible and clearly directed at me.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When I addressed it, both Whitney and the stylist deflected rather than taking accountability by acknowledging the sender and content of the message.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Whitney was seated directly behind me at the time, making the source apparent. Additionally, Whitney was tending to her own hair, dyeing it and sitting under the dryer, while having clients of her own. This further contributed to an unprofessional environment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]After reviewing other customer feedback, there appears to be a recurring pattern of concerns involving Whitney.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]For additional context, a prior service interaction with Whitney was also negative, notable for curt and dismissive communication.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The continuation of this pattern reflects poorly on the overall client experience and the salon's brand. Overall, this salon offers a highly inconsistent experience depending on the assistant and stylist. For clients evaluating whether this salon is the right fit: if you are looking for a salon that educates you on what is being done to your hair throughout the service, this may not be the place for you. [[HIGHLIGHT]]If you value a warm, welcoming environment where engagement goes beyond basic intake questions, this experience may fall short.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] A woman's hair is her crown, and the overall energy and care within a salon matter. Clients should leave feeling confident, respected, and uplifted. read more

Studio Chique turned me into somebody's rich auntie and I'm never going back to basic! From the moment I walked in, the energy was right. Very welcoming, chic, and calm like a mini spa day with a side of glam. The fact that my stylist was the owner made it even more special. She absolutely understood the assignment and then some. I came in for color, extensions, a bang, and a ponytail and left feeling like I should've been riding in the back of a Rolls with oversized sunglasses and a glass of prosecco. She laid this hair like it was silk from the heavens. The color? Flawless. The blend? Seamless. The vibe? Unmatched. What I loved most? She made me feel relaxed, beautiful, and like I was in expert hands the whole time. No rush, no chaos... just luxury hair care and a whole new attitude. If you're thinking about booking... stop playing and do it. You deserve to look like generational wealth, too. #RichAuntieEnergy #StudioChique #SlayedAndLaid #LuxuryInDC read more

THE BEST MASSAGE EVER! I called Studio Chique | Luxury Salon & Wellness Spa yesterday and asked if they had any facial and massage appointments for the day. To my surprise Cashmere, the receptionist happily scheduled both services for me and offered the current special rate on massages. The salon is located on the 2300 block of Rhode Island Ave NE along side several interesting local shops and trendy restaurants/cafes. Upon opening the door, I was impressed with the interior design and panache of the Salon. It was 'NYC Chique'! After checking in and completing a digital questionnaire via my phone about my expectations of the services being rendered, I followed the lovely Cashmere to the Wellness Spa area located at the bottom of the spiral staircase in the lobby. I was seated for a short moment in the serene waiting area to the sounds of ethereal music and a relaxing water feature. Ni'Jhae, the esthetician introduced herself and lead me to one of the many luxurious, cozy, and aromatic service rooms. Ni'Jhae cleaned my face and began examining my skin before selecting the best signature products for my facial. She explained the features and benefits of each of the products as she applied them to my face. Every application felt velvety and smelled freshly fragrant. She didn't push products on me, instead she gave me advice on products that should treat my problem areas. Needless to say, Ni'Jhae had my once dull looking skin shiny as a new copper penny and soft as a baby's bottom. Now, for the review of all reviews....the Signature Massage by Deshoy. I'm still smiling from that euphoric experience. Deshoy entered the room with a pleasant demeanor and promptly washed his hands. He then proceeded to ask about my comfortability with also massaging my glutes, feet and abdomen. To all of which I obliged affirmatively. Deshoy began appling soft deep pulsating pressure to my neck, shoulders, and back. Immediately, I was put in a trance with the way he used his hands to massage those areas. As he continued to massage my arms down to my fingertips, then to my toes and feet, up my calves, to my hamstrings, then my inner thighs....and Girl, the way he grabbed and massaged my waist...Whewww!...Babbbbbyyyy! I was giddy thinking to myself that this man must absolutely have some stalker clients and I bet a few restraining orders on some of them too...lol, but frfr. Deshoy was a consummate professional massage therapist. Oh yeah, at some point he asked if I was having a 60 minute or 90 minute session. Unfortunately for me, I had opted for the 60 minute massage. Fortunately for him, he better be glad I didn't have the later, because he was able to escape my hand in marriage...hahaha! I will be back for another sensual relaxing (non-creepy) massage by Deshoy. I just put y'all up on game, because in the immortal words of Snoop Dogg & The Dogg Pound It Ain't No Fun (If The Homies Can't Have None). Schedule your facial and massage today! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Afterwards they gave me sparkling water and a cookie and my favorite part was that I was educated during the entire process.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They will answer all your questions about how spa service benefits your health and body, and what you can expect.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm looking forward to trying the head spa! If I didn't have microlocs I would get my hair done here as well. Every time I go I see gorgeous styles from natural hairstyles to weaves. The standard is excellence and it shows! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Shout out to everyone who was kind and attentive and Sofie who did such a great job washing my hair[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . This was my first time trying out a salon in DC and Aloni made my experience so worth it ! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great conversation, and such a gentle hand, I literally could fall asleep in her chair.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I loved my hair and will now only be going to Aloni at Studio Chique to get my hair done read more

Imagine Sitting 5 Hours for a Pixie Cut...Whitney needs to be put on a corrective action plan or fired. [[HIGHLIGHT]]You never win when you are nasty and mean spirited. Why come to work unhappy?[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I arrived at Studio Chicque at 10 AM for a simple pixie cut. I left at 3:30 PM feeling drained, humiliated, and deeply disappointed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This was my first visit, and instead of being welcomed, I was told I was "messing up the stylist's day"--five times.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Imagine being a paying client, excited to try a new salon, only to be made to feel like a burden before the service even begins. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shampoo assistant, Jada, was a bright spot--professional, kind, and attentive.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Unfortunately, the actual stylist, Whitney, was the opposite. She arrived late, immediately upcharged me with fees because I picked the wrong services. This was my first time--why not give grace? I picked precision cut, mold and style. In the details for mold in style it stated relaxer. She tells me my new growth is too long and I need a virgin relaxer. I'm very confused! I said okay we can add it on I apologize. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Then she gets nasty and tells me I'm setting her back and she wouldn't have taken me today.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Chyna and Jada look at me like too deer in headlights. They seem to be use to how she speaks to people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] She is a bully and passive aggressive. They are simply use to it. I will not get use to disrespect. I've never seen in 10+ years of wearing a pixie a relaxer being $265 and then she spent the rest of the service making me feel small. [[HIGHLIGHT]]She loudly complained that I was "setting her behind schedule," embarrassed me in front of other clients, and treated her colleagues like they were beneath her.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The price gouging was staggering: $265 for a relaxer, $85 for a precision cut, $110 for a mold and style--services I've had done at top-tier salons for significantly less. To spend five and a half hours in a chair for a pixie cut (a two-hour service, max) while being ignored, talked down to, and left under the dryer for an hour without being checked on is beyond unacceptable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The entire experience made me feel unsafe, uncomfortable, and disrespected. Customer service was nonexistent, professionalism was absent, and I left wishing I had walked out sooner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] God was covering me because my quietness was not weakness. I was saving everyone's life by not going off!!!!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The passive aggressive, nice nasty attitude was HORRIFIC! She should not be a stylist.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]When she asked me did I want the hair to lay like a mold or curled? I said I like in between...for Whitney to let out a heavy sigh and be snappy with me was unacceptable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]No client should ever feel this way. This salon needs to take a hard look at its staff and standards.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] As it stands, I cannot recommend Studio Chicque to anyone who values their time, their money, or their dignity. read more
