Salon Bisoux

I relocated to the DC Metro area in Jan. 2015, and was told about Salon Bisoux by a classmate after I shared my tribulation in trying to find a new salon and stylist. I did a little homework beforehand and perused their website and price points, then made my first appointment with Michelle. Needless to say, I have become a regular. Not only is their work top notch (and they use Keratase!), but their customer service is impeccable. From cappuccinos to chocolate, to a service oriented and friendly environment, I highly recommend Salon Bisoux. Parking is not a problem, as the salon is in Del Ray, but be sure to bring cash if you tip (the credit card transactions are for services only.) Adieu!

Michelle works magic on my hair and is such a pleasure to talk to during the process. I also love all the beverage options! It’s not the cheapest salon in town, but certainly worth the price. I don’t trust my locks with anyone else.

I’ve been having my haircut with Julie for the last year and I adore her. Her cuts are always lovely and my hair keeps it shape for months. The salon staff has always been friendly and professional. Although I find it to be pricey, it is no more expensive than the competing salons in the area and the talent is there to back up the cost. Regretfully have to change salons because I am moving out of state, but Julie gave me great recommendations for salons around my new home.

I never leave this place feeling anything but 1,000 times better than when I walked in. Krista’s color is perfect; Phillipe’s cuts: awesome. The whole staff is professional, warm, and welcoming. It’s a treat to come here!

I chose this salon based on the Unilocal reviews and it was just OK. I received color and highlights which totaled almost $ 300, without tip!!! After the service, many of my gray hairs were still poking through which was very disappointing. Additionally, the «color bar» does not give you a blow out which I found odd. I just spent $ 300 and walked out with a wet head?!! No thanks! I will not be returning. I’ve experienced better at a cheaper price.

I dunt recommend this place at all. I dunt care how fancy ur place is, if u cannot do my roots properly even. This was my first roots touch up in US. I m from pakistan and the girl who does my hair is excellent !!! Yes in pakistan !!! So before i moved here, she had told me what loreal inoa shades she uses on my hair n i can get my hair coloured here. Greta did my hair n she made them way way darker than this shade is suppose to be, then there is clear line that u can tell where the roots have been coloured n where my lower ends start. u can tell that line of demarcation. This place is pathetic !!! I have to go back tomorrow to get my hair fixed which means more damage for my hair n there is no assurity that these ppl are capable of handling that as well. Plz do not be deceived and do no visit this place. i was planning on getting balayage n wat not from here until i washed my hair today n noticed this .i was already noticing darker roots n darkerhair but this is another level. somebody plz take notice !

Phillipe (one of the owners and «master stylist») is way too snooty, but some of the other stylists are nicer. Although, I couldn’t believe the way Roxana treats her clients. Sitting next to her chair was like overhearing a mental bashing of the poor folks getting snipped.
All around Basic Skills, nothing amazing.
The look and feel of the salon is lovely — bright and airy, though it could be kept a bit cleaner. When I sat down at Phillipe’s chair, there was still hair everywhere from the previous client, kinda yuck.

I’m pretty baffled by the positive reviews of this place. Maybe the other stylists are good but I saw the owners (Krista for balayage and Phillipe for a cut) and they are EXTREMELY overpriced for their skills. I found Phillipe to be cold and distracted while cutting my hair. There are way better high end salons in the area.

I love coming here!!! quality hair care & Kathleen is great with my nails… I trust no other! Krista is amazing with color & I can’t wait for Julie to cut my hair. Great people. They remember you… It’s like going back to see your friends! Except your friends are masters at their craft!!!

I recently moved to the area and based on Unilocal reviews tried the salon. I was very impressed with the staff and the overall experience. Highly recommended!

The most wonderful experience you and your hair will ever enjoy. Krista has transformed my color with her excellent balayage talents and Michelle has refined my haircut to perfection. Check out their blow dry and styling classes to fine-​tune your results at home. I’m more than delighted to have discovered this salon.

I moved to the area a year and a half ago and have been trying to replace my NYC salon since. I have finally found an amazing stylist in Julie! She sat me down when I first came in and asked me what I wanted and what I didn’t like with my previous cuts. She was extremely personable and did an amazing job! I am so happy with my cut. The salon was beautifully decorated and the staff was very welcoming and friendly.

Big 5 stars for all the friendly staff in this salon! Greta and Julie are the perfect combination for balayage and a great hair cut! I’ve had my hair done with them twice now and both times had been awesome. Greta suggested a haircolor that matches my complexion perfectly and Julie did a haircut that accentuates the highlights, she also tought me how to fix it myself to keep the «sexy hair» look everyday. I’m glad I finally found stylists that understand Latinamerican hair!

Salon Bisoux is the greatest salon I’ve ever been to! From the amazing products they use to the brilliant stylists you CAN’T be disappointed. The staff is kind, friendly, and very professional. They always make me feel beautiful and treat me like a movie star. And come on, who doesn’t like being treated that good? If you haven’t tried this awesome salon, do yourself a favor and make an appointment. You will NOT regret it.

Just had my eyebrows done by Kathleen and she took 10yrs off my age by her beautiful waxing work. Put Bisoux Salon at top of list for best salon in VA!

Buyer beware. Let me first preface this review by saying I take full responsibility and it’s not a reflection on the quality of hair cuts.
My son has a longer hair style. Nothing complicated. Just a longer bang that goes to the side, not the typical 5 year old short cut. We just moved to the area so I have been looking for a reliable place to get his hair done. I stupidly went to a barber and his hair was butchered so I had to bring him to a salon to get fixed.
This salon is a few minutes from my house so I booked the appointment out i convenience. The price list does say– Children’s cut priced by stylist. That’s where I made the mistake. I should have asked but I didn’t so I ended up paying FIFTY DOLLARS PLUS TIP for a not quite five year old haircut. And she had the scissors to his head for maybe 15 minutes. I learned my lesson and just wanted to share.
That’s just ridiculous.

«I hate hair salons. The smell of the chemicals the blow driers, constant and random chattering, the hefty prices and insignificant results drive me crazy», I was telling my friend P. «Why don’t you try salon Bisoux she suggested timidly, knowing how difficult to please I was.»
I have been going to salon Bisoux for 3 months now and let me tell you why.
First of all, this place is more of a lounge than a traditional hair place. They have everything from champagne and cappuccino to green tea and cucumber water. They have an upstairs and downstairs. Upstairs is for hair cuts, blow drying, downstair solely for coloring. Brilliant idea! The upstairs is fun, the downstairs, where I hang out, it’s magical. No annoying ammonia smell, no self-​important colorist, nor dramatically flamboyant personalities. Just a nice group of drop-​dead gorgeous girls, lead by Krista, the most amazing colorist.
Apart from her seductive light green gaze, she is a highly skilled, fast paced, entertaining, yet not overwhelming professional. She knows exactly what she is doing and she does it fast, saving you TIME, but not skipping on quality.
She is just an amazingly accomplished woman, who inspires me through her passion, her being a mother of 3, a wife, a businesswoman, a fitness trainer, an elegant and disconcertingly natural beauty. And she knows how to pick her stuff. Everybody working in this place understands customer service. They are very professional, adorably kind, welcoming and terribly attractive. Overall, a joy to be around!
Not only I no longer dread spending my time at a hair place, I no longer feel guilty for having left the other salon for no reason, nor despise myself for the only constant in my life, my disturbing vanity.
I consider this place an oasis of indulgent luxury, an exotic mix of European glamour, combined with American beauty of know-​how, a deluded touch of perfect Asian detail orientation and the joyous opulence of the Latin spirit. A place of diversity, of harmony with SPECTACULAR RESULTS!
I love Krista for color and April for massaging my head while applying my treatments, but I have seen amazing results from Patricia, Julie, Greta, Michelle, and rumor has it that Patrick is awesome. He must be if he married gorgeous Krista ;-) I will check his hair skills out personally and will update this review as I go along.
Also, irrelevant as it may seem, I met some really interesting ladies at this salon and therefore I find it to be a great networking place as well. Building friendships is easier when beauty is the common goal :-)
If you want to look your best and enjoy your time doing it, go to Bisoux!

Yuko hair straightening came out perfect! Julie, Shelly n Michelle teamed up to tackle my hair.

Whoever said «Beauty is Pain» has never been to Salon Bisoux. (1)
Every facet of my visit was a pleasure. While Krista applied my highlights, someone brought me a fabulous cappuccino (with a piece of chocolate on the side) and then Kathleen came over and gave me a hand massage. My highlights came up very quickly and luckily Julie was able to fit me in for a cut. I was not ready to leave.
Just so we’re clear on what a breakthrough this was; I hadn’t had a haircut in well over a year. And that haircut was done by Binh at the Cartoon Cuts at Fair Oaks Mall (2) as part of a mommy & me makeover. Salons were not my thing but I guess now I have to find a new Not-​thing.
I will say this: beauty does not come cheap. Figure like a car payment, assuming you also drive a cheap station wagon with a 5 year loan. But seriously my hair has never NEVER looked this good. This morning when I got up and looked in the mirror, I smiled (and I am not a morning smiler) and then woke up all three of my kids and ordered them to admire my hair. They hid it well with all their complaining, but I could tell they were also impressed. My daughter said I looked ten years younger — but then named an age that was so far off base that I better finish this review & start surfing Unilocal for math tutors.
1) It’s entirely possible that’s not a real quote but just something my mother would say when I was little and she brushed my hair. Suffice it to say, she won’t be on Salon Bisoux’s payroll anytime soon.
2) FYI– Binh is awesome and had I not discovered Julie, and my kids weren’t so uppity about being the only teenagers at Cartoon Cuts, I’d still be going to her.

Not only is this salon beautifully put together– a modern flair with all the latest products– but the men and women that work here are truly the salt of the earth and come across as one big happy family. I especially love Julie. Such a sweet woman and easy to connect with, not to mention talented.
Not many times have I gone into a salon and not encountered a bit of pretentiousness. However, with this salon, the experience is all but pretentious. They are welcoming and accommodating. Not only are they great at what they do– but they truly love what they do as well.
I highly recommend this salon! I would say it’s one of the only salons in the area whose talent exceeds Axis’s salon in Dupont Circle and it’s right here in Del Ray!
