Great location and clean facility. Evelyn from the front desk was very welcoming and my overall experience was awesome. Daiva did an amazing facial and was very professional and knowledgeable about what she does. Her recommendations are great. She explains every step of the way during each treatment. I am very pleased with the results and highly recommend her services.

Love Salon Roi -- friendly staff, fabulous shampoo with scalp massage and hair cut and styling by the Master Himself -- ROI. So grateful they are now easily accessed in Chevy Chase at the Elizabeth on South Park Avenue!

First met Himself (Roi) in Milton, De when I stopped to admire his lovely Victorian home and garden. I lived a few blocks up the street. Who would have thought years later, Id be living up the street from Salon Roi. With me in the chair and he the master hair dresser,Roi and I bonded over our shared sorrow of losing a spouse to dementia. His kindness and gentle demeaner sets the tone. Starting with Evelyn at the desk, Salon Roi has always provided me genuine hospitality along with excellent service.

There is no one better than Fouziya. My sister introduced me to her and I drove up from Charlotte for a haircut! I adore her. I’ve never had a better haircut.

Daiva gives the best facials. My skin has never been so happy. She makes great product recommendations and is quite knowledgeable about how to best maintain my skin. Very happy!!

Salon Roi has everything you need and more! I first went because my friend does facials there. I HIGHLY recommend the facials by Zakiya because they’re relaxing, fun, and you feel rejuvenated after each appointment. She walks you through the steps and the importance of each thing that happens during the facial. I’ve also started going for my haircuts here as well since the one I used to go to closed due to Covid. Alicia does a marvelous job each time! I keep getting compliments from the haircut I got yesterday!Even in the middle of the pandemic, I feel safe coming in each and every time. Employees and clients all have masks and the front desk makes sure to do a quick temperature check when you walk in. My only regret is not realizing that could have gone to Salon Roi sooner! (Especially since it’s right down the road). Much love for this place. I can’t recommend it enough.

They were friendly, warm, attentive to what I wanted, and efficient. This was my first visit, but it will not be my last!

I would not go to any other salon or to any other hairstylist other than Blanca. I recommend my friends and they are all pleased. It is the best Salon in DC as far as I am concerned. Joan Shapiro

I have always gotten great results here. They consistently provide great service and I appreciate the recommendations for occasional updates to my hairstyle. This is one of those places that values their customers. All the staff treat me like a good friend -- even ones I dont usually interact with. When day to day life gets stressful, this is a welcome retreat!

Ive been to salon within the past few years. Such a gem find! They are professional and extremely friendly and you feel like you are part of their family when you are there.Their services are always top notch. I got my mani and pedis done with Rosi and will not go to anyone else anymore. I tried different hair stylists and all are great. They are very careful with covid precautions now and I feel safe going there!

I am very pleased with how my balayage looks after 4 hrs of process. It was a total magic from the hands of the expert and her name is FOUZIYA !!!! OMG ! shes the best and very honest hair expert . I placed my trust on her because i researched and saw her photos of her previous clients and i even asked the lady from salon roi and she was recommended. I was blown away with the result, i loved it ! My husband loved it and he was amazed how it complements my tan skin . My coworkers keeps on complementin

Daiva is the best at everything — body waxing, massage, you name it. Alyse have men a wonderful pedicure. I plan to go back for a haircut — it’s so great having a top notch day spa right nearby in. Woodley Park!

Review №22

If youre going to charge for fixing a color that was wrong in the first place after a specific amount of time has happened, and I color I tried to like so that there wouldnt be a need to fix it, you need to mention that before its done and in faced with the bill. I couldnt come earlier because I was out of the country. And no one told me they would charge me because x amount of time had done by. Plus, had I known I was being charged I wouldnt have gotten an additional blow dry. The stylist was great but this is terrible customer service and communication, even if you applied a 20% discount. Im sad because I liked everything. But Im never coming back because of this experience.Plus, its been three days, one wash with sulfate free shampoo and this is my hair today. I asked for ash dark blonde, this was supposed to be a correction. The lighting in the salon tricked me into believing this fix had actually achieved that. But this color is too warm and brassy for only one wash

Massive gold stars for Drew The Blonde!!My color is looking better than ever and my hair is also so shiny and healthy. Also best personality and play list in DC. Clean and sanitized as well these days. A happy and safe professional job well done.

In one of my first ventures out of my house since COVID 19 became a threat to the DC area in March, I went to a place that has more than earned my trust over for years, Salon Roi. While I had postponed a much wished for a haircut for months, I found the experience to be comfortable, reassuringly safe, even, dare I say, normal? To put it plainly: these people know what they are doing to assure their clients’ well-being, while continuing to offer wonderful services.My temperature was checked when I first arrived, with the same type of “aim and click” thermometer my doctor’s office uses. It took just a moment and did not feel at all invasive. Everyone was wearing a mask, both the salon team and clients. Since I have enjoyed the eclectically refreshing décor of Salon Roi for years, it was a bit strange at first to see the adaptations the salon has made to assure client safety, including barriers and more spacing between stations, however, the same Salon Roi calm, welcoming ambiance still radiates. The salon is limiting the number of appointments being booked, and has intensified its cleaning protocol (of course, the salon always has been spotless).My husband and I have been deeply committed to social distancing and can count the number of doors that aren’t part of our house that we’ve walked through since mid-March. We’ll continue to be extremely prudent and selective in our ventures. That understood, my first haircut in six months felt wonderful, and, looks even better. Any concerns I had about visiting Salon Roi during these unusual times disappeared within moments of my arrival there. I’m very happy that the experience both felt safe and was comfortable and enjoyable.

My wife and I are from out of town and were in D.C. to attend an event dinner. She was very concerned about how she was going to ready herself for the occasion. To ease her mind (and with her permission), I made her an appointment for hair and makeup at Salon Roi, which had excellent online reviews. They treated her like royalty and were attentive to her specifications of what she was hoping for. They exceeded her expectations and she was stunning for the event!

Love this place! Roi has been cutting (and coloring) my hair for 15 years. He is a wonderful person, with a warm heart and such interesting stories to tell! Eva manages the schedule and keeps everyone happy - she is so professional. Blanca is also an excellent stylist. and Marita is prefect for nails. They did all the prep for my friends wedding party - and it was a big success.

Review №27

I love this salon so much! Blanca is the stylist I use and she is awesome. Everyone is very friendly and I enjoy the space which is a huge old townhouse. The prices are good too ... they fairly compensate for the job done but are not over the top like a lot of DC salons!

I’ve been coming to Salon Roi for monthly facials with Zakiya for over a year and I can’t live without them now! Every experience has been perfect and I couldn’t recommend the salon (or Zakiya!) more.

Had multiple high-quality services at the salon today: haircut, pedicure, eyebrow and eyelash dying. Very competent, professional and friendly staff who really care about their clients. Have been coming back here regularly for all my beauty procedures for more than a year now since I discovered this salon. Very good price and quality ratio too. Highly recommended!

I’m from out of town but travel frequently to DC. The humidity here makes my hair difficult to style, so I’ll often get a blowout during my stay. Salon Roi was near my hotel so decided to give it a try based on good reviews. Alicia did an amazing job...I’ll definitely be back next visit!

Had my hair done with Fouzia today! She is a BRILLIANT!!! Ive never had such a perfect color in my life! She did full highlights and i almost got compliments not only for hair color, but also for hair style she made! Go to Fouzia if you want to get high quality service! Totally recommended.

Yesterday, Friday, I had my hair highlighted by Alicia and cut and styled by Roi. The next morning I was at the gym pedaling on the stationary bike when another client of the gym passed by. I didnt know her nor recall ever seeing her. She leaned over and said, You have pretty hair.Thank you, Roi. Thank you, Alicia

I found salon Roi when I arrived in DC 2018 on Groupon. As we all know - not all groupons are good...but I totally hit the jackpot with Blanca! First the historic Iconic Marilyn Bldg and the staff that treats you like family - then the products (I was specifically looking for aveda) and then the magic! My hair is dyed, dry and hormonal oh! Also grey resistant to color! lol. My style isn’t old - but I like longer hair. - I never even said what I wanted, Blanca just did it. Oh did I mention hair is Red? The hardest color. She’s amazing. It last forever, looks young and healthy - bouncy- she never uses heat tools except blow dryer - and I get hugs and smooches when done all in 1.5 hours! I love her and will get to keep her another year before we move :/ - so I’ll just send for her.Love love love my experience with Salon Roi, it’s been 14 months of happy hair😘

Review №44

Friendly, kind and with the kind of professionally that only comes with a genuine attention to a customers needs. I arrived in DC with no idea about where to find a hairdresser and was fortunate enough to find Salon Roi online and, on turning up out of the blue, to find that they were able to squeeze me in. I travel all over the world and have been to hairdressers in many different cities: this is one of the best. It also turns out to have a 47 year old history with a wonderful story and, judging from the conversations around me, a clearly very loyal long term clientele. Thank you Salon Roi.

Review №46

I came here the first time because of a Living Social deal for three facials and I have been very impressed. Although the building is old, the service is great and thats what really counts. I have had many facials over the years for my trouble-skin, and Zakiya does some of the best. She really knows what shes talking about in terms of what is good for your skin and what it needs. Lucky for me, I got a half-off coupon to go back now that my three facials are done otherwise I wouldnt be able to go.

I’ve been seeing Blanca for about 8 years now and she is the best hair stylist ever! She makes my highlights look incredibly beautiful and natural. She knows people’s hair like no one else. And Daiva is the best aesthetician in the world. The whole staff is very friendly and fun. I love it!

Roi has styled my hair since 1972, when I lived in the salons neighborhood. I now live an hours drive away--and I make that trip regularly so Roi can keep me looking good!

Daiwa is amazing! She is a Nurse and Esthetician and is genuinely concerned about your health holistically. I guarantee she wont disappoint you. It is located in a three-story house and the parking is the worst, but if you can get beyond that... make your appointment today for a massage or facial!

Review №59

I was a bit scared by some of these yelp reviews, but I had a really nice facial with extractions by Daiva. No breakouts or other bad facial aftermath. She answered my questions about skin care without being pushy and trying to sell me products.The salon itself is not particularly polished or swanky and things look a little old, but it was clean.I would gladly come back for another facial with Daiva.Note that I used my groupon without any issue whatsoever.

Bought 3 facials though Groupon. I must say it has been the best Groupon purchase I have ever made. Zakiya is amazing. My face feels and looks like someone 20 years younger. You have to check them out. Also they are literally steps from Woodley Park Metro, so it is very convenient!
