What we love about beachy waves is that they look amazing on practically anyone, no matter your face shape or hair type. At David's Beautiful People, we can help you get those effortless-looking loose curls that will have people thinking you spent all day at the beach with your toes in the sand. Depending on your hair type and the amount of curl you're going for, our knowledgeable stylists will use either a hair straightener, wand, or curling iron combined with misting heat protectant to maintain the health of your hair.
It's amazing how quickly a person can transform their look with a great set of hair extensions. You can go from a short and cropped look to having long, luscious hair in a matter of hours. Or, we can lengthen and volumize your existing hair to revamp your overall look. There's really no shortage of possibilities, which is what makes the process of adding extensions such an amazing journey for our clients.
We're experts in consulting and helping our clients understand the process of how hair coloring works, setting realistic expectations, and then taking a measured and practiced approach to arriving at your desired shade of blonde, black, red, or brown hair. We can even go for more eclectic colors like pink, lavender, or neon green.

Gui is AMAZING! I have crazy hair - thick, wavy, frizzy. I have a difficult time finding someone to cut/style my hair that doesn't make a "mess" of it. Gui delivered 100%! I LOVE my hair! He was also very honest about a couple styles I chose, and told me what would or wouldn't work based on my hair type. He is very knowledgeable and honest. The staff was very pleasant! Over all EXTREMELY satisfied! I am so happy to finally have found someone I am confident I can keep going back to

I was introduced to Patty Johnson by one of my friends who has been a grateful client of her for many years. The whole staff of salon David located in Rockville is experienced, kind, and friendly. Patty is an absolute professional and takes great care of you. She restored my hair that several hairdressers totally ruined. Her color correction was totally amazing.
She took time to explain to me this process step by step and followed it patiently. Patty also recommended effective products for my type of hair, and I use them at home with good results. I highly recommend Patty!

I hade done my keratin treatment here. And the receptionist said that "key " the hair stylist do best keratin treatment and asked me 350$, also said after booking your appointment you can only cancel up to 24 hours after that 100$ Automatically charged from my account. And stylist did the Brazilian keratin treatment and I am really not happy with the treatment, my hairs are not at all silky or shiny they looks so oily and ridiculous, I would personally not suggest that stylist or this salon.
I had very bad experience they charge too much. Please please don't go for the keratin treatment here. Money waist. Very bad treatment hair doesn't look different. Think before spending money here.

My hair stylist moved from Le mar to here and this is a better place. Always sometime always friendly. Great staff. I have been going to Russell for ages since I was little. He always listens to you gives you an opinion. Gives good advice. Convenient it is a Rockville Pike. They will have you call the store first before you enter the store due to Covid but they call you back shortly after. They take the right precautions they check your temperature they make you sign a waiver.

Great staff and great products. They take the time to give excellent advice about styling options. They never make you feel rushed or pressured in any way. Pre-COVID days, they served coffee and bagles. Not now because during this pandemic, they do everything possible to keep staff and customers safe. Alejandro is my favorite stylist, but you really can't go wrong with any of their stylists. Just remember to bring cash for tips since you can't pay that with your card, which is inconvenient.

I was looking for a new stylist to cut my curly hair after recently moving to the area. I called and the receptionist recommended Nicole and it was easy to book an appointment even with only 2 days advance notice. Nicole took the time to talk with me about my hair care concerns and was really helpful in answering all of my questions and explaining all of the steps she was doing while cutting/styling my hair.
She also didn't cut my hair too short (I'm always paranoid about losing length) but I still left with lots of volume in my hair and great advice for styling my hair at home. I also liked that she wasn't pushy about trying to sell me products from the salon. Considering the prices for Devacuts I saw at other locations, the rates here are great. I'm definitely planning on coming back again.

Nicole took my hair from awful to fabulous. She is so talented with color, hair shaping, extensions and styling. My hair never looked so good. I love the David's products, they are reasonably priced and work great on my hair. From Robin and the other ladies at front to Glenda and all the ladies in the shampoo area, I always felt very welcome and they did a great job.
I should mention Scarlet, who has done my hair many times when I could not coordinate my schedule with Nicole's schedule. She is also very talented. All in all, I would recommend David's to any of my friends and family.

Outstanding experience! I have been a customer at David's for nearly 8 years and a customer of Linda S since long before she moved to David's. I love the customer service I get. The front desk help is always so welcoming and nice. Linda always does such a great job with my color. My hair always comes out perfect. At my last visit I ventured into something new - a perm. Linda did a great job with my new hairstyle.
I love it! I'm getting loads of compliments. Also I want to commend Glenda with her sense of humor and patience with me since I have neck issues and require special handling at the shampoo bowl. The entire staff at David's are so friendly. I look forward to my visits the salon.
