Mr. Oliver did a fantastic job! 67 years at the shop, 67 years on this earth. Great and kind man able to give a helluva cut.

Quaint family business, come and give them the support they deserve!

I found my new barbershop that I will return until I leave DC…read more Miss Sarah Lee runs his barbershop by herself. Her attention to detail and quality of work is amazing. When you factor in the cost of a haircut is only $25! This turns into an absolutely amazing deal. She only takes cash She accepts walk-ins and has a website so you can schedule an appointment. The hours are limited, 830 to 4 Monday through Friday they are closed on the weekends. It can be a little difficult to find. It's your first time here schedule an extra few minutes to navigate the shopping plaza underneath the spy museum. Haircuts are sore, subject for me. In DC to get a semi-decent haircut it's gonna cost you at least $50 not including tip. If you go to other places like Great Clips. The price is a little less. But it's hit or miss. I used to be a Great Clips guy. But I had so much anxiety on which person would cut my hair. One time would be good other times to be terrible. At Metro Barber, Miss Lee is the only person there so you know exactly who you're gonna get. She lined up my beard as part of my hair cut. I highly recommend this place and this will be my regular spot from now on!

I went to Salon Quency again after 8 months, and I left wondering why it's been so long and…read morereminding myself that the distance is totally worth it. When I entered, the individual at the front desk greeted me kindly; seriously, I don't even want to say that they train them well (though they probably do) because I get genuinely good energy from everyone in that place. About my haircut and barber: I showed Quency a picture from last year and told him I wanted something like it, but I'm so tired of the cowlick and I want another option. Let me tell you, he understood what I wanted, but KNEW what I needed. He asked what I thought about a style totally different, but cute, trendy, and fairly easy for me to fix at home. I'm of the mindset that you only live once, so why not. When he got started on a faux hawk type cut, I told him I'm surprised he thinks it'll work out since I have relatively plain hair without much volume. He paused and told me that that's his job! I put my trust him when I took off my glasses, and he got to work. When we were done, I was honestly really surprised. My hair, which usually feels textureless and honestly quite burdensome, was stylish and contemporary. I am so glad that I trusted his opinion and went with something new and confidence-boosting. He walked me through the steps to fix it up right and made sure I was happy before having get me up. He matched my vibe and got me what I needed by avoiding any cowlick issues, so there were lots of wins today.

I read rave reviews about this place (specifically the owner, Quency Valencia) on Yelp and Reddit,…read moreand booked an appointment with Quency online on the salon website. Everything from front desk reception to ease of booking to haircut quality and styling is absolutely top-notch, and for very reasonable prices. I've lived in a few places and needless to say everyone who has moved around knows the stress of finding a new hairstylist. In my case, I also wanted to find a stylist that knows how to work with wavy hair and didn't cut my hair too short/with a fade like a lot of barbers do. Rest assured, you have found your go-to place right here. I really appreciated that Quency set aside time to do a quick consultation before my haircut and was very mindful of my requests for layers, feathering, not too short length, etc. I like that he makes sure to honor clients' requests while also offering potential ideas for what might suit the client's hair best. He is exceptionally detailed, efficient, and wants the best results for each of his clients. After I had told him what I was hoping for in a haircut, Quency told me what he was going to do and visually demonstrated which areas he was going to trim/style and how. He told me his goal was to emphasize my natural hair volume and texture, that I was going to feel like I had even more hair then ever before, and that I was going to love it--and he was totally right! Quency gave me a quick, easy to understand tutorial of how to style my hair in less than 3 steps (I had said earlier I prefer a minimal routine). When he handed me the mirror at the end, I was stunned at how voluminous my hair was and how much wave he'd been able to get with only sea salt gel and a little bit of curl enhancing lotion! An incredible haircut for only $60 (that only took half an hour!) Quency is a master at his craft and it clearly shows in his work. He and the other stylists are very friendly, and you can easily tell that he wants all of his clients to walk away feeling happy. His salon is clean, well-run, and he clearly chooses all his staff with intention. I was briefly helped by Sary and Maribel as well while I was waiting for Quency to finish with the client before--both excellent. I cannot recommend Salon Quency enough!
