About

The salon sits at 1301 Pennsylvania Avenue NW in Freedom Plaza, a short walk from the White House. The nearest Metro stop is Metro Center, and parking is available on nearby streets and in two garages within a block. It is open Tuesday through Friday from 10am to 7pm and Saturday from 9am to 6pm, and closed Sundays and Mondays.

Hair color is the largest part of the menu, from single process retouches and full color to double process, partial and full highlights, balayage, and babylights, with gloss available on most options. Corrective color and vivids are quoted after a consultation, and all new clients must book a consultation before a color service. The salon suggests root touch-ups every four to six weeks, highlights and blonding every six to eight weeks, and balayage gloss every four to six weeks.

The Hair Lingerie extension service covers consultation, installation, maintenance move-ups, removal and blow and style, with the final price set after a consultation. Women's and men's cuts, blow dry styling with or without iron work and extensions, and wedding or event styling round out the hair menu. Texture services include extensions, permanent waves and relaxers, also priced after consultation.

Treatments include a Calm and Restore scalp massage, a Scalp Rejuvenating Treatment that is an exfoliating scrub, Kerastase Fusio Dose, hair detox, the Kerastase Premiere detoxifying treatment, and two keratin options. According to the salon, Keratin Express lasts up to six weeks and Full Keratin up to 15 weeks, depending on products, lifestyle and styling. Hair should be washed no sooner than 48 hours after color and no sooner than 72 hours after keratin, using a sulfate-free shampoo.
