Urban Natural Silver Spring

"Very affordable love the use of natural hair products that you can choose from, they personalize your experience according to questions you filled out and love the spa treatment vibes relaxing overall will be coming back! My only complaint is a lil rough with the parting of my hair"

"Davina was amazing. She did great on being gentle and both styles turned out great. She did an outstanding job on both of my daughters. Just a big THANKS to Davina"

"A visit to the Silver Spring salon is like stepping into a relaxing oasis. The vibe is highly professional, the stylists respectful and professional, the music is relaxing, the aromatherapy from the products is amazing, and we are always treated with the utmost respect. Urban Natural is known as an area mecca of natural hair care--a hallmark of the owner who prides herself in promoting the important slogan Kinky hair IS good hair. This holistic approach is apparent at the Silver Spring location. I highly recommend making this a must book if you are looking for a location where you and your hair are treated well."

"This is a cozy little natural hair salon specializing in natural black hair. The salon smells amazing. The aroma of sweet Shea butter hits you as soon as you walk in the door. It will never smell like relaxer since it's a natural hair salon! The decor is wooden with purple accents. It's a quaint space that makes you feel comfortable and at home. It is located on Bonifant street - home of many local mom and pop joints. The stylists are very knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. They answer questions and help people transition from chemically treated hair to natural hair. They also assist in making the decision to "big chop". I first saw Lauren who cut all of my hair off in 2011, then had my locs started by Shameka in 2012, and then Dee who has been doing my hair for the past 6 years. Dee does such a great job and I constantly receive compliments. They use natural products like shea butter and black soap, but if you use any prescription products like medicated shampoo or oil, they can use that as well. I have an itchy scalp condition so I love the shampoo process. It is very soothing and it ends with an herbal rinse. The loc retwisting process includes a GENEROUS amount of your favorite Shea butter so be prepared for your hair to be shining and hella hydrated. The Shea butter is my favorite part! The people are cool too but it's really the Shea butter that brings me back, lol. Depending on your hair type and length, you can have it styled accordingly. I get my hair styled and then sit under the dryer. My hair is very thick and runs down my back so the drying process takes a long time - about 2hrs. Bring a book or your favorite electronic and a charger if you're like me. This salon is appointment only, so don't expect to be seen if you just roll up there wanting your hair done before your dinner party. You can make consult appointments online if you're not sure what you want to do with your hair. The stylists are helpful and typically run on schedule. They also have seminars or events occasionally where you can take a class or get your hair done photos taken. I give this place 5 stars because of the knowledgeable and friendly staff, the excellent service, and after 7 years my locs look amazing. Thanks ladies!"
