About

Hiwot Studio is a hair salon at Hampden Lane in Bethesda. A client review says the business moved from a DC location to this studio, which is set within Symmetry Salon Studios.

The menu covers color, cuts, styling and treatments. Color runs from balayage and highlights to all-over color, with color and cut starting at $160 and partial highlights and cut starting at $185. Consultations are recommended for every color service. Corrective color is offered for uneven tones, unwanted shades and over-processing, and corrective haircuts are offered for cuts done at other salons; both begin with a consultation, and bringing photos is recommended.

Appointment lengths vary. A women's haircut usually runs 45 to 75 minutes and includes a consultation. Color retouches or gloss usually take 60 to 90 minutes, while highlights or balayage often take 2 to 3 hours. Clients can book online through a linked platform, and same-day touch-ups may be possible depending on the schedule if clients call ahead.

According to the salon, color should be held off for at least two weeks following a keratin treatment, with a longer gap needed after a relaxer. Relaxed results often hold for roughly 6 to 12 weeks. A blowout typically lasts about three to five days. Short or precision cuts are usually best refreshed every 4 to 6 weeks, while longer styles generally need a trim every 8 to 12 weeks.

Focused on hair health, using salon-grade, hair-safe formulas and bond-building treatments during color and cutting, with personalized styling tips and product recommendations after visits.

Described as warm and modern, with a quiet, private feel and a beverage stand in the reception area.
