    Balayage
    Maham A.

    Love, love, love Thu's work. From the moment I walked in I felt warm and very relaxed! I am always hesitant to start a new salon and am very picky about where I go but i am extremely happy with the decision to come here. Thu does a phenomenal job in understanding your wishes and making it happen...I walked out looking and feeling great. Not only is she super down to earth but she is very knowledgeable about hair and can execute whatever it is that you want. 5/5- would recommend her to all my friends/family.

    I normally dread getting my hair done... it's time consuming and honestly, I have other things I could be doing but Thu makes the whole process pleasant and enjoyable! I actually look forward to my appointments! The salon is clean and fun to be in and located in Little Italy :) Of course, most importantly, the work she does is amazing. Being blonde my hair can sometimes be difficult. She has mastered the art of making blondes beautiful. We've nailed the color (blonde with a bit of ashy root) while not looking yellow or washed out. I recently decided to upgrade to extensions (photo) and have zero regrets. The cut, the color, the application... everything is on point!

    I consider Thu to be a hair/color artist than anything else. If you're looking for quality styling and coloring, this is the place to go. She really spends time making your look perfect, and has a keen eye for artistry. It's worth it.

    When I first moved to Nova I called in last minute at another salon and landed an appointment win Thu. She was amazing...a true artist and so passionate about her work. I followed her to her new salon, a very homey and cutely decorated space in salon lofts - she continues to do wonderful work! So easy to trust her opinion and always such a comfortable experience. She colored and cut my hair making it look natural with a cool blonde balayage. Thu is laid back and easy to chat with. Her recommendations are fun and she is always quick to feel-out what her clients want! I will definitely continue to make the trek from Arlington to come see Thu! (: Her salon space is a true reflection of her work - all the decorative details (greenery, coffee cart, golden accents) are artistic, soothing, and make you feel like a spa queen!! Love time with Thu!

    Thu's work is phenomenal. After my first appointment, I was sold - she took me from drab and dull highlights to a beautiful blonde in one whack. My biggest pet peeve is when you can see the stripes from highlights, and Thu has saved my hair with colors that are always perfectly blended. I've been going to her for over a year now and my hair has never looked better.

    Before and after

    Let me start by saying Thu is by far the best hairstylist I have ever encountered! I contacted Thu for a color correction a few months back but unfortunately she wasn't taking any new clients! A week ago I saw she had some openings on Instagram so I contacted her again, she quickly responded and scheduled a session to look at the integrity of my hair. After the initial appointment she booked me for a color correction and bayalage the next day, you can imagine I was thrilled! Thu went above and beyond to make sure my hair would turn out just as I wanted it. I had dyed my hair boxed black last year so going blonde was going to be a mission but Thu made it happen. She kept the integrity of my hair, removed the black dye and gave me the perfect bayalage! She totally rocks! Thank you so much Thu!!!

    I am so lucky that I got to get my hair colored and cut by Thu! My hair was really brassy and thick and she brought my hair back to life. The end result was exactly what I wanted. She was knowledgeable and I appreciated her talking me through what she was doing to my hair. She took a lot of weight out of my hair, which was much needed. I am 8 months pregnant and she was very attentive and thoughtful throughout the appointment and I had fun chatting with her and Victoria. I can't wait to get my hair done by Thu again

    I was introduced to Thu through seeing a girl's hair at Tea's N You and followed her on Instagram. I immediately loved her work and liked a bunch of her photos. I have never gotten my hair professionally done but decided to make the jump. Booking: I direct messaged Thu through her Instagram thu4hair and she replied immediately. She was very responsive and friendly and was helpful in deciding what I wanted to do. She even asked for pictures to help decide what style would be best for me. She was very professional and used a system that texted you when the appointment and location would be. Overall I was very impressed. Location: The Salon Lofts location in Vienna was conveniently located near the Tyson's Mall and metro. In addition, there are other stores and restaurants there that it was easy to get food when I was getting my hair done. Her salon is super cute and currently in the process of being decorated. Service: Thu was absolutely amazing! She is stunning and beautiful and so talented. I love my hair which I got cut, colored and then temporarily curled. I have been looking to change up my look and only ever gotten $20 dollar haircuts before or dyed my hair myself. In total, Thu spent almost 4 hours on my hair. She bleached it, colored it purple/blue, cut it, dried it, and curled it. The color that I ended up with was magical and iridescent. I have only gotten compliments on my hair because it is so unique! She was also so friendly and caring. We had such great conversation and time that I would like to hang out and introduce her to the area outside of her working schedule! My only concern was the price because I am a young graduate but I understand this is a professional and expert service and the materials and labor cost a lot. Thu was thoughtful and helped me be able to afford my color and look. My recommendation for Thu is that she advertise her other services. Thu's makeup is also amazing but she currently does not advertise her ability to do makeup. She says that if the customer provides makeup, she will do such. I recommend Thu advertise her makeup services! Thanks so much Thu! I had such a great time and would love to come back in the future. You are the best and I hope I can help you out more as you expand you name and business! :) -Shirley H

    Thu is an amazing, talented, patient hairstylist. She is honest with you the moment you sit in her chair. She carries a personality that keeps you from falling asleep during your hair appointment. I've had three appointments with Thu thus far and she never fails to disappoint. As a stylist from the West Coast, she is equipped with the hair color and cutting techniques you don't find much around the NOVA area. I've been to several hairstylists, but I've never been as satisfy until I had Thu color and cut my hair. I don't like the blunt, straight edges at the end of my hair and she understands that. She also understands that when I lift my dark hair to a certain level of lightness, I don't want to leave the salon with my hair looking brass orange. I mean no one does... With that in mind, please understand that if you have dark hair, it's going to take at least 2-3 sessions before you get to the level of lightness desired. Top left pic: first appointment (before) Bottom left pic: first appointment (after) (1 month later) Right pic: second appointment Five months later, my roots have grown out, my balayage needed to be repainted, and my color is had become faded. The full frame picture (non-collage) is my most recent and third appointment with Thu. She repainted my balayage, gave my hair some grey/ash blond hues, and trimmed my hair. Without a doubt, I'm super pleased with my service!! Please note: Thu is quite the busy bee. Depending on what you get, I'd suggest to book your appointment at least 2-3 weeks in advance.

    I went to Thu for the first time on a whim. I saw some photos of her work online and really liked her style so I reached out to her. About a month ago, I had my hair done to an ash blonde balayage and although I really liked the color, I ended up looking like a complete blonde. There was very little shadow root and too much of a drastic change that I couldn't get used to. I explained my dilemma to her and she was very attentive and reassuring. I showed her photos of the look I was going for and she did a fantastic job capturing what I wanted. I was very pleased and impressed with the outcome. She blended in some dark tones and added depth and dimension to it. I'm so glad I found her! I highly recommend. She has a creative and edgy style. I will definitely be coming back.

    My bomb hair makeover ! In love.

    I recently found Thu on Instagram from mutual friends sharing her work, I was quickly impressed with her work portfolio and needed a not so shabby look for my upcoming trip to Paris. Thu greets you with a bear hug and immediately I fell in love with this girl. She then asks a series of questions about hair goals, how wild do you get with colors and listens to the random adjectives I can spill out of my mouth. She knows I'm a new mom so medium maintenance hair was my goal. She recommended my roots to be kept natural so I trusted her and went with that. I absolutely love my hair but can't wait till I can have a higher maintenance hair to let Thu do more artwork on my hair. Thu is skilled, sweet and talented what more do you want from a hair artist. She also feeds you since these hair appointments are 3+ hours so she has some granola bars and bottled water should you need a quick snack! Her location is currently in salon lofts and it's this chic new spot by Dunn Loring metro so hey DCers you can metro here ;) Thu is also offering a promo for her grand opening so y'all should definitely get a hair makeover for Fall if you haven't done so already.

    Before

    My cousin recommended Thu to me and I'm so glad she did. Thu is wonderful! She is super sweet and so professional. She knows her stuff!!! I couldn't stop looking at my new hair in the mirror afterward. Highly recommended if someone is looking for a hair stylist in SD.

    How much is it for balayage?

    My prices vary depending on what needs to get done. What’s your hair history? What do you currently have at the moment? Box dye, virgin, or old hair color? And what you’re hoping to achieve?

    How much for a medium length women's haircut?

    Hi my haircuts are $80

Since I had box dye in my hair, he informed me it would be an extra $70 for a color correction. After getting price estimates from other salons, this seemed like a decent price for my budget. I did my research and looked over his website, Yelp reviews, etc. and the photos impressed me and led me to believe he would produce the balayage I wanted. I didn't mind the price for everything I was getting. I sent David photos of how I wanted my hair a few months before I scheduled the appointment. I have been saving up money and planning this treatment for five months which is perhaps why I'm so upset about the original results from my first appointment. When I walked in he briefly welcomed me and then immediately asked me what I wanted done. Since I've been planning this treatment for so long I had a Pinterest album of similar balayages (not to mention he already had the photo in our thread). He took one glance and got started which made me nervous but I trusted him as a professional. Throughout the treatment there was no communication regarding color, length cut, or anything like that. We sat in silence for 80% of my 3 hr. appointment. We made small talk and I asked him about after care, what he was putting in my hair, etc. He curled my hair and when I turned around and saw my hair for the first time I noticed it was WAY lighter than I expected, but I did like it. I left the salon happy. But I never curl my hair so when I saw it natural (wavy/straight), I could see how messy and amateur it looked. There were chunks reaching up to my roots and he basically dyed the bottom half of my hair a rainbow of blonde colors. NOT a balayage. I left a short review on the website and he text me shortly after with a long reply. I sent him photos of how my hair looked and the photo I originally sent him of what I wanted. He offered to fix it for free, so I went back in. Before my appointment he text me to confirm and said "Would be great if you could take down your review," but I'm glad I waited until after the second appointment to review him again. This time the communication was better, however now that a day has passed I see that my hair is still not where I want it to be since he bleached the whole bottom half and effectively made it difficult to achieve a balayage with just toner. I do understand that I did tell David I liked my hair in the salon because at that point I was fed up and wouldn't bother to have him fix it since he already comped this appointment and spent his time fixing it. Overall it looks much better now and is healthy after I cut 4 inches off (which I did to get rid of the dead bleached hair), but I am still going to get it fixed by another hair dresser. Not only that but I asked him for long layers in my hair cut but my hair is all one length. At the end of the day, if you go to David, just make sure you are clear about what you want because otherwise from what I can tell in other reviews he is a good hairdresser.

During the consultation, she told me that my blonde highlights got darker because of "mineral buildups" in my hair from hard water, and she recommended to do a "CPR treatment" following by applying a toner to bring back the blond color (which highlights got darker and more yellow over time). She said that this treatment plan would make my highlights lighter and blonder again. I made the actual appointment, when the proposed treatment was done. After 30 minutes of sitting under the heat with the treatment applied, she washed out the "CPR treatment" 3 times!!!, scrubbing my scalp and later she told me (when I had the skin reaction) that she used a PH 9 shampoo, which is apparently (I'm reading now about it) harsh, and is disruptive to the hair and scalp. Then, she applied the toner, then a leave-in conditioner, that needed to be washed out due to some skin reaction. When she was working on washing it out, she scrubbed my scalp so viguorusly, that I screamed from pain to stop her doing it so harshly. Later in the afternoon, I started to feel an inflammatory type of severe pain on the back of my scalp. It got worse since yesterday and I don't know what really happened to my scalp, skin, tissue, or nerve, but whatever injury happened, it is extremely painful. Regarding the result of the treatment, nothing that promised was achieved, my hair feels like it got a little darker and making my highlights blonder didn't happen. Kayla told me after drying my hair that she was surprised that her treatment plan didn't work on my hair. What is much worse than not achieving the promised result is the severe pain on the back of my scalp.
