Inizio Hair Salon

Lovely look of hair die
Mar 21st, 2024

Chevelle revived my hair! (For background, I have curly 3A hair and was in the process of getting it healthy again but all of that was undone by a different stylist elsewhere. I also would normally just contact the stylist to rectify issues but I didn't want to risk anymore damage. My hair had lots of banding, breakage and my curls weren't curling anymore. No, I don't bleach my hair myself nor use box dye). So when I found Chevelle, I was DESPERATE to restart my healthy hair journey again while maintaining the copper hair color I love. I saw her work on IG and read up on her experience and knew I could trust her. I quickly scheduled an appt with Chevelle after 5 days after the other stylist butchered my hair. Upon sitting in her chair, she immediately saw and understood my concerns and woes, and discussed a solid plan for my hair moving forward. I had an amazing deep condition treatment and while at the shampoo bowl, the chair elevated to have me laying flat and MASSAGED my back. I NEVER had that kind of experience at a hair salon before so I was pleasantly surprised. I got a much needed cut that day and have been back 2 additional times to see Chevelle. I can honestly say this is the healthiest my hair has been in ~9 months. It's curling again, the color is POPPIN, and I can say I TRUST the hands doing my hair. Chevelle is super sweet and professional and created the perfect custom copper color for me. I hope she never leaves this salon lol Also, the salon is clean and has a clean bathroom! They have tea, coffee, water, and champagne. The other stylists in there are friendly as well. As far as price goes- if you want quality work and professionalism, you're going to have to pay $$; this isn't some chain salon that will put your desires for an instant color job over the health and integrity of your hair. I've been getting my hair dyed/cut/pressed professionally for the last 12 years, and I can say the price is on par for the services and professionalism you pay for.

My fave salon in DC!!!! I've had my hair cut and colored by multiple stylists here for years now. Besides talented stylists, it also just a cool place to hang. Love the decor and the general vibe between the stylists and the way they treat their clients. 5/5 recommend

I loveeee this place! First of all, it is such a cozy and clean space and I felt very comfortable and taken care of from the moment I entered. I was offered water, tea, champagne, etc which was really nice and definitely something I wasn't expecting (maybe this is normal but I rarely get professional hair cuts). My hair stylist, Lauryn, was AMAZING. She listened to all of my concerns and requests, repeated it back to me and we worked out a plan. She totally understood what I wanted and made it happen. Also, the hair washing station has massage chairs which was nice. But Lauryn was truly the star of my whole experience - she even gave me a shower cap to keep my hair dry and preserve the blow out since it was pouring rain outside. I will definitely be back, and while I could certainly tell the other stylists were very talented and kind, I was especially blown away by the service and care I received. Side note: The manager/owner(?) Jayson was also spectacular when I spoke to him on the phone several times to make my appointment and bombard him with questions. He was very accommodating and considerate. Overall 10/10 would recommend!
