Ari Studio - Hair Salon in Bethesda, MD

I had such a great experience with Delian. She did my highlights, haircut, and blow-dry, and I absolutely love the results. From the moment I sat in her chair, she was kind, patient, and very attentive to what I wanted. She took her time to make sure everything was done perfectly, and it really shows in the final look. The highlights are beautifully blended, the haircut feels fresh and flattering, and the blowout left my hair looking smooth and polished. I felt confident and taken care of the entire time. I would definitely recommend Delian to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy stylist, and I'll for sure be coming back.

Very happy. I went with photos of ideas for a big bold change. Delian discussed why some of the styles wouldn't work well with my hair type, face shape, and preference for low maintenance. I went with her suggestion and loved the result - which was hair 12" shorter than it was when I arrived! Though a big change, the style still looks like me and is low maintenance and versatile. Not only am I impressed with the resulting hairstyle, but I really enjoy Delian's quiet and thoughtful conversation.

Delian was very thoughtful and took her time to make sure my hair came out exactly as I desired. I put my trust into her expertise, and was very pleased with the results. It was also very easy to book the appointment, she made the whole process seamless and relaxing.

I got a blowout here with styling. She was super sweet and worked in a timely manner because I was in a rush. I could tell by the way she dried the hair that she knows what she’s doing because it didn’t hurt at all! It was $85, which I think is an appropriate price. I also enjoyed talking to her.

My experience at Ari Studio was wonderful! This is my second time there and I will keep coming back. Delian does an amazing job and my hair always ends up looking even better than I could've imagined! She is amazing!

Delian is fantastic at what she does. She prioritizes the health of your hair and gives you exactly what you want. 10/10. Book with her if you want healthy hair!

Started off with having to wait 35 minutes before my booked appointment. Delian made weird comments about how I look "young" and "14, or 15," which should have been the first red flag. The service I booked was a touch-up of my roots, but midway through, Delian asked if I wanted to add a blowout. I asked how much it would cost. It turns out she turned the $ 100+ appointment into a $ 360+ one and kept trying to sell me additional hair products without informing me of the price change. When I confronted her about the cost, she said she had changed the service type to better suit my hair and would remove the foil halfway since I didn't want to proceed. After washing my hair, I asked if she could quickly dry it because it was dripping wet, very cold outside, and I had just been sick, but she told me it would cost around $150. Did not even give me a towel to dry my hair, never apologized, and her approach turned rude once she realized I would not be leaving hundreds of dollars for a service she didn't inform me of.
