Celia's Salon
Located at MacArthur Boulevard, Celia's Salon looks as beautiful on the outside as it does on the inside. As you walk in, you are welcomed by a flower bed with an array of pink and white aubretias glimmering in the sunlight. As you enter our bright and airy salon you are greeted by 5 friendly faces.

Maggie, our receptionist who will check you in, and Carmen our lovely shampoo girl known for her amazing scalp massage. Lastly, our team of three stylists from different backgrounds brings a unique international vibe to our salon. The owner, Celia Santos, previously owned a salon in Portugal for over 20 years!

I have been going to Celia for years and have loved every haircut I’ve gotten from her. I have very fine hair, so mistakes show, but I’ve never had a bad cut from Celia. The staff is super friendly, the facilities are great, and most importantly the quality of work is incredible. Highly recommend this to anyone looking for a good haircut with some great people.

Celia’s salon is a warm, happy, inviting place with natural light, an impeccable standard of hygiene & wonderful service-minded staff. Celia is a very talented and professional stylist who really cares about the client and giving them the best service possible at all times. She keeps up to date with new products and hair styles to keep your look modern & stylish and fresh. Celia is an amazing colorist & really takes the time to give you the look you want. I highly recommend Celia who has been my stylist for more than six years.

Celia is just fantastic! She is the only person on the planet who I trust to do a Brazilian blowout. It's a complicated process and only a pro can handle. My hair always, always looks perfect when I leave. Even my highlights take me back to my childhood natural blonde and blend perfectly with my hair. I honestly do not know how you could leave anything less than a 5 for Celia -- perhaps if you're having a bad day?

Moved to the US 6 years ago and I finally found my hairstylist. Celia did an incredible job on my hi lights and balayage. I have very thick and wavy hair and her bd straight was awesome it lasted! Finally found my hairstylist!
Also from receptionist to shampoo lady everyone was professional.

Had basic highlights done by a hairdresser at celias. Im blonde. Didnt get to the roots so i went back fir a second time.. the hairdresser turned my hair purple and celia had to step in and correct it (3rd attempt).
No discount, hours in the chair.
Not worth the money. Her prices need to come. Down.

I hate to write a negative review about a neighborhood business, but I have no choice in this instance. This salon is not only over-priced, but, in order to garner as much payment as possible, they refuse to do what the customer wants. I went in to get a touch up to my highlights around the face and part-line, mostly to cover up some grey. I had the temerity to ask how much this would cost. My attendant went to the manager, who came back to say this would be $350 dollars. Shocked, I asked why? She said I would have to have a full body color before any touchups could be done, and this, together

Princess was my hairdresser and she was so lovely. I enjoyed chatting with her as she tackled the huge project I presented her with. I have super thick hair and decided to go super short and super blonde and she achieved greatness! It took a long time for everything that I wanted, but she had so much patience and wouldn’t stop until I was satisfied. Celia was also great and stepped in here and there as well. They both are hard working ladies and they made sure to keep the salon clean and safe during these times. I’ll be back for more soon! :)

Absolute best! I went there last Saturday and the staff were professional (tells you something about their knowledge when it comes to customer service), appointment started on time (even if I myself was a little bit late lol), very interactive, chairs were adequately spaced and it was obvious that the establishment itself was observing measures to avoid crowding. The place was so clean and bright and also, getting the service I went there for and more. Special shoutout to Princess for being the best hairstylist. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about hair and hair products that would suit

I really recommend them especially Princess. She is one of the best make up and hair stylist that I've ever met in my entire life. I've had a lot of bad experience from other stylist but for her, i didn't had any single problem with her. First time, I went here I had her do my make up because I have a dinner party to attend to. I requested for a full glam make up. (see the pictures) I am really starstruck to myself, she really did a good job. My make up and my hair stayed longer when I was in the party.
On my second visit, I went there to dye my hair in blonde. It's my first time to have someone

Been living in DC area for years and it's always tough for me to find a good stylist. I don't easily trust someone /stylist to touch my hair. I'm very picky but I met Princess Tuazon 2 years ago through friends and she has been doing an amazing job with their hair and so I got curious and took chance to get my hair done & ever since she became my hair & make up artist. She has always done an amazing job & enjoy her comforting personality. Fast forward to today, I went to visit her and get my hair done at Célia's Salon, she started working here for couple months

After 20 years of going to an upscale salon in DC, I discovered Celia's! She is a gem! Best hair color and cut I've had in a long time... not to mention price!
