About

The business started when the owner began offering hair services from her home after her first child was born in 2000. Over time it grew into a salon lounge, with most new clients coming by word of mouth. The salon sits on more than 7 acres of nature preserve just off the highway, about 30 minutes from Washington, D.C. and Virginia and about 40 minutes from Annapolis, Baltimore and Frederick. The business says clients travel from across Maryland, Virginia and D.C. to visit.

Extension work starts with an online application that asks for hair history, photos of current hair and the client's goals. A consultation follows by FaceTime or Zoom to review the hair and options, and an estimate comes after that review. The appointment is secured with a deposit. Not every client qualifies, since eligibility depends on hair length and density. The first extension appointment takes about five hours, and visits include a curated meal along with a snack and beverage menu.

Extension pricing is custom and set after consultation, based on length, color, texture and the number of rows needed. Installation packages start at $1,790 and include custom color, a precision cut, premium at-home care products and a meal. Maintenance visits, recommended every six to eight weeks, combine a color refresh, removal and reinstallation of the extensions, and nourishing treatments using K18 and Olaplex for bond repair. The business says its extensions last up to 12 months with proper care and keep more than 90 percent of their original volume, and that the hair itself is guaranteed for six to twelve months depending on care.

The business describes its team as including one of the first and only licensed NBR artists in Maryland and the East Coast, and describes itself as a leading expert in hair extensions. The team is certified in multiple extension methods. The stated mission is to boost clients' confidence through personalized, expert hair work.

Personalized, expert hair work aimed at boosting clients' confidence, with extension plans and pricing set after a consultation.

A relaxed, private home-based setting on a wooded nature preserve, which the business describes as a speak-easy style retreat.
