Amanda is so wonderful! A talented stylist and a really warm delightful person to talk to. Love having her do my hair, which she does in a way where there's never any lines of demarcation and the colors always flow and blend together well. The salon itself is always so charming and relaxing to visit, too. Today, I got to enjoy a Nespresso while waiting for my foils to process. read more

Your lucky if Christina even shows up for appointments. On 3 different occasions she forgot that we had appointments and always has an excuse as to why it's a new system or someone's else's fault. Forgets conversations and seems aloof most of the times. Good luck with this one. read more

I visited studio she today for lash extension fill. After 4 weeks from my initial lash extensions I needed a fill. Yes, you read that properly, 4 weeks!!!!! I only waited this long due to a schedule conflict, but my lashes held their own. I've gone to studio she for years and will continue to. Great service and amazing quality! read more

Before going to Studio She, I'd been researching hair extensions which I was certain that I'd wanted as I prepare for the Mrs. Maryland International pageant. Christina was very honest with me in telling me that she felt that this was not the best option for me. It says a lot about a business when they would rather do right by you than take your money. It meant a lot to me. She could have tried to talk me into doing something outside of my budget for her own benefit, but she did not. This is a testament to her business integrity. One of the many things about our great city of Frederick is businesses like this! While I was there, I was watching Christina put hair extensions in another young lady who was seated next to me. When she was done, it looked completely like her hair from top to bottom. Further, Christina was giving her great instructions as to how to take care of her hair. I know that there are a few businesses in Frederick but if you have thin hair or are needing/wanting more voluminous locks, see Christina!!! read more

I love the Studio She!! I followed my hairdresser Amanda to this new salon and just love it, it's in quaint old town Frederick and I've never had problems with parking. The salon is very nicely decorated and very comfortable, I love all the mirrors and the big windows. I just get my haircut here, but I know they provide a ton of other services. I would highly recommend this salon to anyone! read more

My hairstylist is Amanda. Once I made the mistake of seeing some one else, what a big mistake. Amanda is the best, she is very talented, warm, friendly and compassionate. I always leave feeling better. Its a lovely little studio/salon but what makes it special is Amanda! read more

Truly, there is nowhere else I would go. After hiding my fine, thin hair for years I reached out to Christina to see what options, if any, I had. Well, needless to say, she is a miracle worker. With less than 50 extensions, she gave me a full head of long, gorgeous hair. Christina transformed my look, my outlook, and my confidence. I am still amazed by the results and recommend her with every fabric of my being. If you are in a similar situation, there are options - meet with Christina to discuss them and see what she can do for you. She honestly changed my life for the better in less than 2 hours. read more

Christina is amazing! I am a new client as of this year. It is hard to find a stylist like Christina who understands extensions and can color/cut them skillfully. Definitely recommend anyone in the Frederick area interested in extensions to go see her!!!!!! read more

Christina was able to get me in on a busy Mother's Day weekend to get ready for my son's wedding. Cute, clean studio and I was so pleased with the results! I didn't expect my appointment to be fun, but it was! Christina gave me a beautiful blowout and expertly utilized a fancy hair clip I brought to match my dress. She then air brushed beautiful foundation, and Meghan completed my makeup perfectly. What a wonderful experience, wish I looked close to that nice every day! Thanks so very much ladies, you made me look and feel great! read more

I would love to give 5 stars but I'm not a candidate for hair extensions at this salon. My hair is super curly and tight curls at that. The hair available to the owner doesn't match mine and I guess hair that does match mine is either hard to find or unavailable. Christina the owner was very kind and personable during our consultation and her salon is so cute. I'll need to keep researching where in DMV I can get curly extensions that's not a weave. It would be nice to go to Studio She because I literally live 2 blocks away. In any case, I may go in sometime for lashes when an occasion calls! read more

Let me just start off by saying that this review is for customer service only - I can't speak to the quality of the hair services or extensions, because we never actually got that far. I'm getting married in March 2015 and Studio She came highly recommended by my wedding hairstylist for extension purchases for the big day. I called a month ago (end of October) to set up an appointment to visit the shop and pick out extensions in person. I called CJ (the owner's) assistant directly on her cell phone, as she directed me to do via an Etsy message. We set the appointment for Nov. 22 at 9:30am (a month from the day I called). I live in Arlington, VA but figured this place was worth the hour drive, so I woke up super early and headed to Frederick for my appointment this morning. The Studio only operates by appointment, so I wasn't surprised to see it closed when I arrived at 9:15; I just figured they would open at 9:30 when they saw me. 9:40 came along, and no one had shown up. I called the salon's direct dial, hoping that during off hours it was directed to someone's cell, but no luck. I then called CJ's assistant on her cell phone, twice, and left a voice mail. No luck, still. I decided to try texting CJ's assistant, assuming once she saw the message she'd call back (I know I don't always answer unknown numbers or listen to voicemails right away). She texted back within minutes and simply said that the owner had been stuck in NY since Thursday and would call me when she figured things out. I wrote back saying that I drove all the way from Arlington, couldn't someone else just come meet me to show me the extensions? Now, 4 hours later, I still have not heard back. I understand that perhaps there isn't anyone else to just come meet me, but to not answer my text at all? Knowing that I drove an hour to get to you? Ridiculous. And on top of that, still not a single phone call, from the owner or her assistant, to apologize for the inconvenience and confusion. If you've been stuck in NY since Thursday, why wasn't I called? The assistant claims she didnt see my appointment anywhere, that's even worse. I don't care if your extensions are made from God's hair himself, I will NOT be giving this place a second try, and none of you should bother giving it a first. Plenty of other professional salons in the area to chose from, with better ability to control their schedule and better customer service when mistakes are made. read more

I had tape hair extensions installed early May 2012. I just had my 8 week maintenance appt and re-installation and I can't say enough good things about my extensions, Studio She, the owner, and my stylist. Everyone has always been friendly, either on the phone or in person and every question I've asked or concern I've had has been addressed. My stylist does a wonderful job on my hair (both color and tape extensions installation) and I absolutely love it. I've gotten many compliments on how nice it looks (something that has hardly ever happened to me my entire life as I have extremely thin and hard to grow hair). I did a lot of research on extensions and salons that offered them locally before finally deciding to get them done (I've been toying around with the idea of getting hair extensions for the past *FIVE* years and was scared of my natural hair being damaged so I've researched A LOT). I'm glad I settled on Studio She - I couldn't be happier! Update: I ended up keeping the tape extensions in for a year. I loved having them and my natural hair wasn't damaged. After deciding to completely take them out, I got custom clip in extensions made for me by Studio She and they are so beautiful and of such great quality. I've continued to be very happy with my cuts/color and I also visit the salon for special occasion styling/makeup from time to time. Love it! read more

This review is not for quality or work but for my inability to reach someone to make an appointment. I've called 3 times, once the voice mailbox was full, once I was able to leave a message, and once I hung up. I did not receive any call backs yet. It's disappointing because the reviews are good and I'm really trying to find a place to get my first extensions. Hopefully I get a call back and I can update this review to 5 stars. read more

I ordered extentions online back in December. The extensions I had ordered said that they were in stock, but after a month of not hearing anything about shipping, I sent out an email just checking in. I got an automated response back, not giving me any information. It is now April and I have left numerous messages asking for some kind of information on either when will they finally be shipped out or to ask for a refund. I saw that my message had been "seen" on Facebook, but yet again STILL no response. They might be great in person, but apparently their online customers are not as important read more

On November 17, 2011 I went to Studio She to have fusion hair extensions added to my hair. Christina "CJ" the stylist and owner proceed to do my hair extensions. The hair extensions cost $1,200.00. The next day after getting the hair extensions, my hair began to spread away from the extensions. I emailed Christina to let her know about the problems that I was having with the extensions.The entire front portion of my real hair split away from the extensions. At this point, I emailed Christina the 2nd time and asked could she simply remove the extensions and could she refund a portion of the money that I paid to have the extensions done and she told me that the entire process was nonrefundable. She kept saying how busy she was and that she basically wasn't able to fix my hair around other people that had scheduled appointments. When I first had the extensions done on November 17th, Christina told me not to apply too much heat or oil to the hair or the extensions would come out. Although I did exactly what she told me to do, a couple days later the hair extensions began to come out of my hair anyway.They would snap out of my hair seemingly no matter what I did. I would wake up in the morning and find them on my pillow case or I would try and brush them with the brush that Christina had given to me to maintain the extensions only to find them in the hair brush when I was done. I emailed Christina for the 3rd and final time to ask her to remove the extensions because they are glued to my real hair and my real hair was coming out with them as they snapped out. Christina continued to tell me how busy she was and how she could not fix my hair or remove the extensions. She also told me that if I were to come in that I would have to pay the price for additional extensions to be added. Christina also told me that I would have to pay an additional $150.00 per hour for her to fix my hair or remove the extensions after I had already paid her $1,200.00 the first time. I had to remove the extensions myself . When I removed them, there was still a lot of glue left in my real hair. I went to 3 other hair stylist and they couldn't get the glue out of my hair either. I had to cut off all of my natural hair. So buyer please beware. read more

Studio She has a super cute, stylish atmosphere that I absolutely love. The real Superstar of Studio She is Amanda Smith! I highly recommend her, she is professional, kind, very sweet, great personality, and passionate about hair. At my last appointment I took Amanda's advise and decided to go short. I was nervous but trusted that Amanda wouldn't lead me wrong. Wow was she right! I have never felt more beautiful. Go see Amanda Smith, you will not be disappointed! read more

I can't say enough about Christina at Studio She. Being in her chair is the best (+ cheapest) therapy I've ever spent money on. Hair extensions have always been something I wanted having fine hair that does not seem to want to grow, and now I can't go with out them. Being a licensed stylist myself, I hear a lot about many different brands and methods of extensions. CJ was able to offer me a range of options in price, texture and maintenance so together we could make the best decision my lifestyle. If you're looking for a boutique salon to relax, unwind and get GREAT hair, she is your girl! read more

Had my haircut at Studio She by Emily. She listened to me about the kind of haircut I wanted and I got exactly what I asked for. They also didn't try to push and sell me hair products which I appreciated. I will be back again. read more

Love, love,love this salon. CJ does wonders with balayage technique! Completely recommend going to this salon!

Stylists at Studio She work collaboratively to plan your look and I have left feeling and looking better than I could have even imagined . . . every time! Let them be inspired by you and your story and walk out turning heads. read more

I met Christina Jones in January of 2014. I called to get a consult on having extensions done after a horrible hair cut. Unfortunately my hair was cut too short and nothing could be done but to let it grow. She spent 45 minutes with me consoling me about my hair . By the end of the consultation she had me laughing and we came up with a plan moving forward. I have been seeing her every 7 weeks ever since. While in her salon I have seen a very determined business woman work hours on end creating beautiful extensions for her Etsy site. She puts her heart and soul into every set she makes. This is her passion. She is not only a creative artist but is legendary in her industry. Before meeting Christina, I was your typical stylist hopper. I can now say that I am true to her and my hair has never looked better and has never been so healthy. Thank you Christina for taking my call on that winter day when I needed reassurance that my hair would recover from that terrible haircut so long ago. Dawn Thieman read more

My Amanda is fantastic! I was experiencing hair lose, two years ago, when I first came to her. She had knowledge and expert advice to slap my hair into shape. Now it feels healthy and I constantly get compliments on the color. I highly recommend this salon. CJ the owner is always welcoming and helpful in navigating around Frederick. read more

Studio She is absolutely amazing!!! They are up to date of what is new with hair from beautiful extensions, keratin treatments and amazing color. I followed Amanda from her previous salon because she is that good. Even though it is further for me to drive, it is well worth it. Not only is she good with cuts, color and keratin she is an amazing person to talk with while getting your hair done. I can't stand getting my hair done (and I have to go often) but the atmosphere there is amazing. It makes you feel like you are hanging out with your girlfriends. Through Amanda, I met the incredible C.J .who does extensions like no other. I am in love with my hair thanks to the two of these ladies. Anyone who knows me knows that is the highest compliment as I have very difficult hair. Give them a try.... you will not regret it!!!! read more

Christina is amazing! I had the YUMI Lash Lift done yesterday for the first time. My lashes have never looked so beautifully long and gorgeous. I can always count on her to make me feel relaxed in her environment with her soothing voice and friendly atmosphere. I also had my roots colored and had another appointment to see her to brighten my purple highlights next week. My hair always looks beautiful when she is finished and I couldn't be happier! I highly recommend her! read more

Christina is amazing!! I came to her over almost three years ago as a color client. I wasn't even aware of her extension work. Crazy, I know!! It was definitely fate, and no less a miracle, that I walked through Studio She's doors. After having babies, going through severe stress, and being diagnosed with Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, my once naturally thick head of hair had turned into very thin, breakable, and lifeless hair that wouldn't grow. Christina warmly embraced my potential and gave me a gorgeous head of hair in less than an hour. Who knew that a couple of strands of added hair would make such a difference ?? I truly felt like I became myself for the first time ever thanks to the amazing talent and genuine kindness of Christina. Entering her salon is truly like entering your own private sanctuary where the focus is all on you. That is what Christina does best. So happy I found such a genuine and talented soul in my own hometown. We are very lucky to have Christina and her Studio She! read more

I can't say enough about CJ and my extensions and experience. I absolutely love going here. I got extensions glued in for the first time in October and was head over heals! She just removed them, did a keratin treatment and highlights and then placed new ones two days later. I can't tell you have sexy they are!!! She always goes above and beyond and I am officially a lifer!!! read more
