About

Salon EFX is a hair salon in Silver Spring, Maryland, at 1610 Elton Rd. The salon describes itself as Silver Spring's destination for elevated hair and expert color. Color is central to the work, with blonding, balayage, highlights, dimensional color and extensions among its specialties.

Each visit starts with a consultation, offered in person or by phone. The stylist uses it to build a customized hair plan around the client's goals. Listed prices are starting points and can rise with hair length, thickness or the work needed, and the stylist confirms the price before beginning. Consultations do not include services and do not reserve an event date.

The menu runs from haircuts starting at $20 and treatments starting at $30 to styling, color, extensions and smoothing. Smoothing options include the salon's signature Kerasilk Keratin Treatment and a Brazilian Blowout, along with straightening and perms. Facial care is also available, with customized facials and gentle face waxing.

The salon's bridal and event team handles hair and makeup for occasions such as weddings, formal galas, prom nights, photo sessions and major life milestones. Preview appointments are available. Wedding-party and special-event services begin at $150, and group bookings at a client's chosen location begin at $1,900.

Clients can book a Time Request appointment, choosing one of 12 times their stylist has set, in blocks of 30 minutes or more at variable pricing. Existing clients of Nancy Pope have a separate booking category. Memberships and gift cards are available. Cancellations made less than 24 hours ahead incur a 50% fee, and clients arriving with lice will not be serviced, with the same fee applying. Hours are Monday to Friday 10 AM to 7 PM, Saturday 9 AM to 5 PM and Sunday 10 AM to 4 PM.
