About

The Fairfax salon is at 2980 District Avenue in the Mosaic District, Suite 160. The business also mentions a second Northern Virginia salon, Nordline, which is planned but does not yet have a published address, so callers are asked to phone for directions. Opening hours are Tuesday to Friday from 11am to 8pm and Saturday from 10am to 7pm, with the salon closed on Sundays and Mondays.

Curly hair is a specialty here. The salon cuts curls dry, in their natural pattern, instead of wet, which it presents as the approach most other salons do not take. Stylists are trained in the DevaCurl and Ouidad curly cutting methods, and after looking at a client's hair the salon recommends whichever cut suits it best. The business says it is known for taking on hair that other salons find difficult, such as curls cut wrong, failed colour and hard-to-manage texture.

Colour work covers hand-painted balayage, which is applied without foil and usually returns every three to four months, as well as highlights, toners and blonde services. Balayage starts at $350 and Balayage & Highlights services start at $160. Blonde on dark or previously coloured hair may need several sessions. Colour correction addresses box dye, banding, brassiness and bleach damage, and begins with a consultation and strand test before a price or session count is given. The salon says it would rather be honest that a goal needs two appointments than risk damage trying to reach it in one.

Smoothing treatments such as the Brazilian Blowout cut down frizz and the time spent drying, but they do not permanently straighten hair. Clients can ask for a version that leaves some curl intact. Extensions are matched in colour to the lengths and ends a client already has, then blended in, usually after colouring when both services are booked for the same visit. Looks are built around each client rather than picked from a set template. The cost is settled during the consultation, once the stylist has assessed hair length, thickness and the work involved. Bookings can be made online, depending on availability, or by phone, where the team can suggest which service suits.

Each look is built around the client's own style and hair rather than a fixed template, and the salon curls are cut dry in their natural pattern. When a goal needs more than one visit, the salon says it prefers to say so upfront.
