Michele MacLeod Master Hair Stylist

"Michelle has been an absolute gift. I’m devastated to be moving away from her. She always makes my hair look amazing and her highlights last forever. 10/10 all day everyday."

"Michele is the only person in the DMV I trust -fully- with my hair. I echo the other commenters here by stating with full confidence, she is the BEST hair stylist I've ever had and always gives me the cut, color and style that I love on myself and the look that flatters me the most. Michele is a seriously gifted and knowledgeable hair stylist: she's studied the best to be the best and understands the geometry and chemistry of hair care. She's a master at color. She's also an honest professional with impeccable character. Michele's been an excellent friend to me (and my hair!) for years, and I can't recommend her enough. (Photos: During COVID, I had a severe amount of damage from a bad highlight job from another state... with care and proper attention, she helped me bring my hair back from the brink!)"

"I have been a client of Michele's for years, and she is the best stylist I've ever had. Before I met Michele, I fought the wave in my hair and used to constantly flat iron it, which took up so much time. Michele has taught me how to embrace the wave in my hair through her amazing cuts and styling tips. She has done so many different styles of cuts on me - from short, cute bobs with baby bangs, to long and layered with soft, longer bangs. Everything she does looks fabulous. I used to do my own color but I really wanted a change, and so Michele started working her magic on my color. She has such a great eye for tones that will work well with your skin and eye color (even with bright colors like purple or pink). She is an incredibly well rounded stylist, and she is also one of my absolute favorite people to talk to. She is warm and kind, and simply fun to be around. I think she's the total package. If you are looking for a great stylist - go see Michele!"

"Michele is simply the best. She has cut and highlighted/balayaged my long thick hair for the 8 years I've lived in Alexandria. She is a magician with color (the one time I used a groupon with someone else she fixed that disaster competently - and I won't make that mistake again.) Her highlights are natural, on-trend, and flattering, and if you've ever had bad color you know how valuable that is! She gives the best haircuts I've ever had, taking into account the texture, wave, and length of my hair, and she's great to bounce style ideas off of. Her personality is warm, fun, and easy to communicate with, and her new salon location on Washington Street is hip, bright, and gorgeous!"

"Michele has been doing a fantastic job on my hair for years! I trust her advice and know my hair will look fantastic when I leave her. Michele keeps my hair looking healthy and strong. She is also a wonderful and kind person. You will enjoy your time in her chair!"
