Avatar Salon & Wellness Spa 8395 Colesville Road, Silver Spring, MD 20910

"It was my initial visit to this hair salon, and I was incredibly impressed. The stylists was not only friendly but also swift and highly professional, displaying extensive expertise in hair care. The salon itself was immaculate and maintained well. Yeama, who styled my hair with flat twists, was excellent—her energy was fantastic, and the prices were very reasonable. I'm eagerly looking forward to revisiting the salon to experiment with different styles."

"Alexis did my relaxer and left me with terrible chemical burns on my neck and my hair because she laid my hair on my neck to brush the relaxer on. She also left bald patches on the back of my head from the relaxer. The customer service was terrible from start to finish. Alexis didn’t acknowledge the injuries she inflicted on me during the appointment. I didn’t realize the extent of my injuries until I took pictures of the back of my neck the next day and fully grasped the extent of the burns. So, I called to complain. Alexis was disrespectful during the call and wasn’t apologetic. Instead, she gaslighted me by telling me the injuries were my fault??? I’m in physical pain and feel violated by someone who I paid for a service only to be left with damaged hair and painful burns. Alexis has poor people skills, terrible customer service and is bad at her job. Relaxer shouldn’t be applied on the neck."

"I had the Cezanne treatment done on my hair by Bruce. He was so knowledgeable about the product and the process. He was extremely thorough and a pleasure to speak to while I styled. I highly recommend Bruce if you’re looking for a stylist who is professional and talented. The salon and staff is also welcoming, I had a relaxing time - can’t wait to go back for all my hair needs!"

"I went to the salon for a repair of a hairstyle and the stylist were gracious enough to fix my hairstyle first of all. That experience encouraged me going back for another service and it was phenomenal. I had a straw set done and it lasted for at least 2 weeks. I haven't ever had a hair style last that long. It was well done and beautiful. I will admit it was sticker shock (the price for the service) but i understand that there were a lot of things done for my hair in order to get it in a better condition. I am very grateful for the attentiveness of the stylist and all the things that were done to ensure the style was flawless. I thoroughly enjoyed my service, style and my experience. I will be back."

"I enjoy getting my hair done at Avatar, the stylists are very professional and do an excellent job each time. I always leave the salon feeling pampered and happy with my do! Shout out to Cassandra and Imma! Also Bruce is very nice and accommodating. I look forward to having a massage there as well!"
