Very professional and affordable. Dong Le did an incredible job on my cut and highlights, she is very thorough and easy to talk to, very sweet. Highly recommend!!
Great salon! Theyve been in business for 40 years and the stylists are talented. They do nails, waxing, and hair. If you want a great haircut, go here.
Love Selivia!! Everyone is so nice and warm.
I love my new hair! Isabel, my hair specialist, did an amazing job! She was very sweet and kind the entire time!
Christy gave me a great haircut. Im so happy with it.
Including before pics so you can truly understand the miracle that took place hereCant say enough good things about this place! The receptionist was really helpful and went out of her way to set up haircuts for both me and my sister last minute, day of. Fabiola was our stylist and she did a fantastic job on both of us. I came in with hair bleached a total of 6 times and at least 3 different tones/shades on my head so my hair was in rough shape. She had the woman washing my hair(I didnt get her name but she was really nice and was gentle with and took good care of my hair) use a blue shampoo to get the brass out and after the deep conditioning treatment and the haircut my hair was soft, strong-looking and as even-toned as it was possible to be. My hair feels light and gorgeous and I love it
I tried this very clean and professional salon for the first time beginning of 2021. Was not disappointed! I have been back every week for a wash & blow style with dong Le. My hair is very difficult to blow dry, due to the texture & even the best stylists have tried and failed. Dong Le knew just how to do it! My hair turns out perfect every week! This is a very sterile environment. They take every safety precaution, actually going above and beyond! Thank you, positive image!
I wasn’t at Positive Image. I had walked past there so I could go back home.
This review does not reflect the facility. Cecelia is a hair dresser who works in the Positive Image Salon and is not a professional person and we will never return to her after she did not cut my sons hair correctly and then argued with me about fixing it. She was full of attitude and disrespectful blaming my absence from the original haircut. I was unable to attend and my husband noticed the bad haircut when he got home. I plan to look for another salon based on this one experience with a rude person. I also now need to pay someone else to fix my son’s hair. This has been an extremely disappointing experience.
Cleanest, best organized, professional and classy salon in Virginia. Helen, my stylist is gracious and totally competent regarding colors and cuts.
Staff is very friendly and professional. Evelyn cut my hair (was halfway down my back and I wanted to go with a pixie cut), I had pictures of what I wanted done and she referred back to the pics as well as asking my opinion for various aspects. Salon does a great job of following social distancing protocols too.
I desperately needed a cut after the lockdown was finally lifted and my regular stylist was not in. I saw Dong Le and she gave me a wonderful cut which left me feeling human again. Ive been going to Positive Image for several years now and have always had excellent experiences there. The shampoo ladies are the best! I highly recommend Positive Image to anyone.
By far the most professional and courteous salon in the area! I am a weekly client and appreciate being able to rely on such a wonderful team.Thank you for always being gracious and accommodating!
Ive been going to Positive Image for many years and through many hair styles and colors! The staff is professional AND friendly. It is always a great experience and I have never had a bad experience. The owners are exceptional and make you feel like family. A great value for the high quality of service
Got my hair done by Heather and she is amazing! Gave me the exact color I wanted and a flawless cut. Definitely recommend her!
My very 1st time coming here and I loved it. I got my hair done by Heather B and I will definitely be back and recommend to my friends.
Always a great experience, I’ll never go anywhere else. Helen is amazing and has so much experience! She’s done wonders for me, and has put up with what I have coined my “hair color and texture identify disorder”! She will give her trusted, experienced opinion but never coerces you to do something you are not comfortable with. She listens and gets it! Staff are nice, atmosphere is also fun, yet relaxing. Worth the money!!!
Very accommodating. New to the area. Was able to get an appointment quickly. Helen was awsome. I love my haircut!
I have to admit that I have been a client at Positive Image for 20 + years!They always make my appointment such a relaxing time for me to spend on myself....isnt that what every woman wants? My haircuts make me feel great and beautiful. And it is worth the time and money. The best ME time in the world.
Patti cut my hair. She was very nice and knowledgeable. I got a haircut that I actually like, which is highly unusual.
I started going to Positive Image Salon a few years ago to see Nancy Barlow. I was always very particular to work with someone who knows curly hair and color. Nancy is the one! The unique thing is that my mother, daughter and granddaughters have all worked with Nancy over the years. We are all ages, have different hair, which really shows her scope of skill. I always love how she transforms my hair. She also gives a lot of great ideas. Shes fun and professional.Yes, shes a gem!
Highly recommend getting your hair done by Rebeca. She did my hair for the 3rd time and I absolutely love it! Rebeca is a very kind, talented and friendly person. Great consulting, she is very considerate and knows what she is doing! She did my balayage/highlights very precise!! I absolutely trust her! 😊
Positive Image always makes you feel like youre with a family. They are wonderful with listening to their customers and making sure you are taken care of. Becca is a wonderful hair stylist! She sat with me for 30 minutes to make sure I was happy with what I was choosing. She also is very detailed oriented, positive and a talented artist. I would definitely choose any of the wonderful artists at this salon to do your hair.
Ive been going to Positive Image for years and have nothing but good things to say. The front desk ladies are always wonderful, Frank is the absolute best and Sarah gives the best head rubs ever. I moved out of the area five years ago and still drive up to Springfield to get my hair done. I highly recommend this salon!
This shop, tucked away in an unassuming strip center, is a gem. I have been going to Positive Image over 12 years and would not consider going anywhere else. My stylist, Sherri Weaver, is a master with color and is always well trained and informed on the best products, color processes, and cuts. Sherri really takes the time to have a conversation to understand what I am trying to achieve and has more than once talked me out of a great idea that would have been a disaster had I gone through with it! The entire staff is professional and well trained. Its always a great experience here!
Terry was awesome. Fit me in with little notice. Very professional. Great experience.
I moved to Va. from Palm Beach. I have gone for 6 months to Patti May for cut, color and style. She is beyond excellent with color. Everyone comments on my haircolor. She does the very best job of anyone I’ve ever gone to. She is also excellent with Hair Cuts and style is always good. I would highly recommend her to anyone. The only thing I regret about leaving is to go back to Fl. Is to not have her fix my hair .Also she is very personable and friendly and does exactly what you want!
Positive Image is a truly professional salon with only the highest standards of operation including training for and execution of the latest requirements for cleanliness and safety.
Look no further, Positive Image is the one stop salon for all your needs. I have been seeing Helen for ~20 years — even after moving to SF. Whenever I book my ticket to visit VA, I call and book my appointment with Helen! She knows exactly what I like and has never led me wrong. Love the salon and their work. Highly recommend!
I adore this salon, and I love, love, LOVE Monica! I have been a client of hers for 16 years! Prior to Monica, my longest relationship with a stylist was a little over a year. My haircuts last for nearly four months. Considering I have straight, fine hair which grows quickly; that says a lot about the quality of Monicas work. Ive also gone to her for color and highlights.
They have a very good procedure in place to keep everyone safe.
Amazing...Julie did an outstanding job on the color and cut! I had previously been to multiple salons in search of the perfect place, and I finally found it! Not only is she perfect, but the salon was clean and the staff was very friendly. I already booked my follow on appointment!
Helen does an amazing job! I always loved the way she did my hair. I made the mistake of going to 2 different hair stylists in Rehoboth Beach, since our plans were to move there, and my hair became very dry and brittle. I came back to Helen and my hair is definitely on the mend! I dont think I will ever change again. (Live and Learn). I will definitely be driving back into the area to see family and friends, and make my appointment with Helen. She listens to what you want, makes her suggestions and then you walk out feeling great! Always a GREAT experience.!!!
Ive never been loyal to a hairdresser until I found Rebeca! Since the first time she cut my hair I was so happy with it I knew Id have to go back. I have long hair and anyone with long hair knows how scary it can be to go for a trim and leave with inches off by accident- this has never happened. She asks exactly what I want and then does exactly that. Definitely check this place out.
Simply put, Rebeca is amazing! I decided to give her a try when seeing some great hair photos online and have been happy w/ her service since. She’s very talented and will go far in the industry, I highly recommend her! 😊
I have been coming to this salon for years. Everyone is professional and polite. I see Selivia and have always been thrilled with my hair. Great place for color, highlights, cut or even just a blow out.
I went to Positive Image Salon based on a friends recommendation and it was wonderful. I worked with Rebecca, who was attentive, kind, genuine, and considerate. Having close to zero experience with dying my hair a bold color, I appreciated her guidance on what sort of process would fit my low maintenance tendencies while also creating something fun.
I absolutely love Michelle. I only get a hair cut service, but I am happy every time. She knows my crazy hair and anytime I want to change it up she does an amazing job. I have never had any issues at the salon. All of the other people are nice and professional. I live in Woodbridge, but have no problem making it to this awesome salon and stylist.
I enjoy coming here so much the people are friendly and so are the employees. I always come out feeling great thanks to Rebecca. I highly recommend her services ! She’s is very attentive and has a great eye for what would look best if you are ever unsure in what you want .
I went for my first time last week, it was great!! It is always hard to try out a new place and I am so glad I did. Sherri did a wonderful job and the staff was attentive and friendly :)
Rebecca is the best hairdresser I’ve ever been to. I’ve been going to her a little over two years now. I’m very particular with my hair and don’t just go wherever. She’s so talented. I absolutely have full trust that she’ll always do an amazing job with my hair!! She originally did a balayage for me which I loved. And I went to her recently to get a cut and highlights and once again I’m in love with my hair!!
I love when it’s time to get my hair done because I love visiting my stylist Rebecca! She is beyond amazing, really know what you want, and does what she can to take care of your hair! Just got back from doing a toner and My hair looks like I just got it re-colored! Rebecca genuinely cares about her clients and puts so much effort into making her clients hair look beautiful! The atmosphere of the salon is very nice, lots of space, & they offer many different services! I can’t wait to go back!
Teri was very honest and patient when providing me a consultation about hair color vs highlights. Teri provide excellent service. MY hair looks awesome. Thank you Teri!
I’ve been seeing rebecca for about a year now and i can’t stop coming back! she’s been very honest and caring towards my hair which is everything i look for in a stylist. she recommends the best and truly is the best! highly recommend her for any color or cut.
Positive Image is a well-run, nicely appointed salon where Ive been a customer for 27 years. I predominantly have cut and color. My hair dresser knows my preferences; always does an excellent job; and periodically suggests modest changes that she knows will suit my personality. I highly recommend Positive Image.
Cecilia did an great job on my cut and style. I have very frizzy hair and, since she specializes in that hair type, she made it straight and smooth just the way I like it. Most hair stylists style it in a way that looks very poofy but Cecilia knew how to handle my hair. I recommend her.
Rebbeca was amazing, I love the turn out. Highly recommend her. The place is fantastic, great service, everyone was supper friendly. I love it. 💕👏🏻💇🏼♀️
Love my recent haircut from Nancy. She listens to what I want done, offers great suggestions, and then follows the plan WE decide on. Love Postive Image.
The hairstylist Helen was completely rude and disrespectful. I’ve never had a worse hair cut in my life. My hair was uneven, color wasn’t saturated, the only good thing about my visit was a peppy little shampoo girl named amy, who really helped turn around my visit.
Donald is THE man!!! Listens to your comments and feeds it back to you to make sure he is hearing what you are saying. He will not disappoint!!!
Best customer service I have ever received from Rebeca. Shes also a wonderful stylist. She makes sure your hairstyle is perfect from top to bottom. Would recommend her to anyone.
I love Helen. And my experience there has always been awesome.
Monica is a fabulous colorist. If you are seeking dimensional highlights/lowlights, she is the stylist!
I got my hair done by Rebecca and she did an amazing job!!!! I asked her for a balayage with light caramel tones and she gave me exactly what I wanted. Highly recommend her to anyone who wants to make an appointment at the salon. :)
Terri has been my hair stylist for many years. I treasure her and appreciate her talents. She is a trasure for me!
I recently moved back to Virginia and needed to find a new salon. I love to get my hair dyed, but it can easily get brassy or turn shades of green and gray. After looking at a TON of reviews, I chose another local place. I gave it three chances (of giving me gray undertones) and moved on! Thats when I found Positive Image and Nam! Nam listened to me and gave me my first balayage and a new haircut. Since then Ive had nothing but great experiences! Everyone is very friendly and when I cant remember what type of color I need (balayage or color) the girls at the front desk will look it up for me. I would highly recommend Nam and Positive Image!!!
Julie was fantastic! Did my new haircut and color highlight just as I asked for! Clean salon and very professional and friendly atmosphere!!
Let me start by saying this salon has some of the most genuine stylists you will ever come across. Ive known Rebecca for about 3 or 4 years now and a few others there including the owners and some of the front desk staff and they are all great. Rebecca has always made sure to give me her honest and most professional opinions in respects to my hair and ALWAYS makes sure we are keeping it healthy and cute! I have been trying to go blonde for a while now and though it has been a process, patience is key and we are finally getting there. the results are beautiful, i %100 trust her with my hair and i dont think id be comfortable going to anyone else at this point. a huge shout out to Segan and her staff at the front desk for the outstanding customer service, Donald and Rita for bringing this wonderful salon to us, Rebecca and all the amazing stylists there who truly let their passion shine through when working with clients hair. highly recommend!
Segan when i first walked in was very welcoming and helpful. I needed highlights in my hair but i am very very picky. She referred me to rebecca to color my hair. And i can tell you that that was the best decision ever. Rebecca walked me through step by step and assured me everything was going to be ok..well she was right i absolutely love my hair and will always come here to have my hair done. Thank you all so much for your hard work and help....see you next visit.
The best haircuts Ive ever had were from here, I wont go anywhere else. Inviting atmosphere.
They service is awful. Everyone is lazy I sat and waited in my chair while HELEN took a phone call for 15 minutes?! Then you expect me to pay top dollar for a subpar hairstyle. No thanks positive image. No thanks Helen.
Donald is awesome, especially with curly hair.
Space is clean, staff is friendly, and Frank is the best hairstylist of all time. You should definitely go here if you want a good experience in the neighborhood.
Well I have been going here for quite some time about 5 years to be exact. Fabiola has been the only time doing my hair and I have loved it most of the time the time before this she didn’t like the fact that I told her I was not happy with my hair so I went to frizzles ( they are great but can be very pricey) So I decided I would give Fabiola one last chance and boy do I regret it. I usually pay no more then $220 with a tip to do my hair.Well my last visit here in October she decided to charge me $360 with tip I paid over $450 her excuse was that she had to bleach my hair 3times because she was NOT holding the bleach in my hair for more then 15 minuets ( usually she holds the bleach in my hair for 45 minuets and it works just fine) It was my nieces first birthday I was already running late and I didn’t have time to deal with this at that time . So that night I decided to send her a text to see if there was a mistake she was not Pleasant at all when I brought it up to her attention. ( I will post the conversation) So I decided it to take it up to management after two weeks the manager was out of town then he couldn’t get on the phone due to his was busy it was horrible customer service.They credit my card $50 and I was suppose hear back from the manager that didn’t happen.I am a pretty loyal client I also believe in tipping well for services that I received.I just can’t help but feel like I was robbed for hair color that I didn’t even end up liking after spending over $450.10/22/2017Good evening FabiolaMy husband is a little upset about the price that paid today I have never paid that much.Can you please break down the bill for today.Her replyBecause I didn’t 3 time bleachEach one is85I did full lowlife 105Blowout 35Fabiola I am sorry to text about this but I was in a rush to leave as you know. Thank you for doing a great job today I can’t help but feel that today charge was a little to much.I have been coloring my hair for over 18 years I have always gone to upscale salons I have never paid that much i just think that’s something you should have gone over with me maybe instead of doing it 3 times I could have held the bleach in my hair for 45 minuets to 1 hr.I been coming to you for a long time now and I truly love your work and everything you do. But $360 when I told my friends and family what I paid today they told me I was crazy.They all said that’s way to much and the most I should have paid was $250 and I usually pay less then that with you.I really hope there is something that you can do to rectify this.Her replyI working more and. 3 hrsMy replyFabiola I always stay there 4 to 5 hrs when I comeNo response after that as you can see I have trying to be polite and cordial but I guess that doesn’t matter
Donald is a master. Not only are his scissor skills magnificent, he has a knack for determining what type of cut will bring out the best in your features.
Had a great experience with Evelin! She did an amazing job cutting and styling my hair.
My husband and I both really liked our stylists. Our haircuts were exactly what we wanted. We will be going back :)
Charlie Hawvermale has styled my hair for years. Without his artistic touch, my hair would be boring!!!
I am giving this place 1 star for the poor customer service and rude front desk receptionist. Being an existing client of Cecilia, I called late afternoon Friday to make an appointment for my highlights. First of all, the front desk receptionist kept on saying if I do not want to have my hair blow dried (for which they charge $45), I would have to leave salon with wet hair. Second of all, she asked me to pay a deposit of $115 for my future appointment since I cancelled with them twice. I explained that I gave them 24 hours notice for my first cancellation and I had to cancel the second time due to having a bad cold. That did not seem to matter due to the salons policy. Having myself worked as a dental hygienist in several dental offices, I must admit the clients do get sick and do cancel their appointments, but dental offices do not make their patients pay deposit of $115 for cancellations. I have always considered going to public places sick and spreading germs was not a good thing, but seems like it does not work that way for Positive image salon.
I am from out of town, but live here 2 to 3 weeks at a time. I went to Positive Image yesterday because I needed a highlight and couldnt wait 2 more weeks until I got back home. I look up their website and see that a partial highlight starts at 70.00, and they had a great website so I assume they are good at what they do. I have long hair so I was expecting to be charged more. Usually its 10 to 20.00 more for long hair. Lily, I think was her name, highlights my hair and sends me to be shampooed. After the shampoo, I sit and wait....and wait. The stylist had another client. I was new there so I didnt know what to do.After waiting 30 minutes or more she finally asks me if I was done being rinsed. Then she takes me back to her chair for a blow dry. She blow dries and round brushes my hair and Im done. I go to check out and she tells the front desk 130. Keep in mind ALL I had done was a patrial highligh...no cut. I ask what the additional 60.00 was and they tell me for the cut. But I didnt have a cut. So the lady talks to Lily and comes back and tells me its for the blow dry. I said, it cost 60.00 for a blow dry? Do most people come in here and get a highlight and leave with wet hair? So she tells me the pricing is a la carte. I can understand that, except how do you check the color without blow drying it?Then the front desk girl tells me low lights and flat ironing cost more too. But I didnt get low lights and I actually asked her not to flat iron other than the cowlick in the front that was sticking up. So they ended up charging me 100 instead of the 130 since I literally had no other services at all.Im making this a 2 star instead of a 1 bc I actually do really like my hair. Its just really sad that they tried to charge me for so many services that I didnt have. I would have had no problem at all paying the 130 if I had actually had all of the things done that they tried to charge me for. The even more sad thing is that I doubt Ill go back because of the attempted rip off. I would have loved to have found a stylist here I could continue to come to when Im in town...but I dont want to have to haggle with dishonest people like this.So buyer beware. Make sure you actually receive the services they try to charge you for.
Love my hair fix at Positive Image!
Riita is a magician with short hair!
On time. Great Hair Cut. good price. Who could ask for anything more!
I had an appointment scheduled and after 15 min of waiting Marsha came and explained that shell be probably another 20 min late. Why bother making an appointment then?
Nancy Barlow is the best EVER!!!!
Always top customer service.
Lots of people in and out...longtime business
