I just happen to be in the area to vacation and I desperately needed my hair done. I already did some research but it was way more expensive than I thought.

I love Sandra!! I walked in without an appointment to see if she'd be willing to give me a jellyfish cut, and she killed it. I got a root bleach, all-over color, cut, wash, and style for $110.

The new owner of the shop, Ms. Hong, is very friendly and professional. She has many years working as a hair stylist, has other salons in Fairfax. She cut the hair fast, clean, and the right style that we expect even when we don't have to describe much. The price is among the best in VA. It seems the old staff makes the customers concerned a lot, that's why Ms. Hong has to run the salon herself. Definitely come back regularly. No wait time, no need booking in advance. Done in 15min
