Review for waxing service.
Susan is great! I’ve since moved to Old Town, and go out of my way to see her. Quality and professional service!

Go see Garland! He’s wonderful, super talented and kind. He made me feel comfortable with ease right from the beginning. We talked about what I wanted (long hair to a bob) and offered thoughtful suggestions specific to my type of hair, which is important. I’m super happy with my cut and my hair feels healthier. My appointment was in the AM before work. He was super efficient too making sure I wouldn’t be late but in fact, I didn’t want to leave :) I think I finally found my stylist which is a relief after many sub par experiences. I highly recommend Garland. You won’t be disappointed. :)

If you are looking for some pampering or want to treat someone else, this is your place! I got the apple and paprika facial recently here and was so happy with the experience.
Susan, my esthetician, was excellent. Susan customized the facial to my skin, asking me about my daily skin cleansing rituals, so that she could target specific areas of concern. She used a variety of creams and oils to moisturize my skin and took her time doing it. She also did some extractions, which ordinarily hurt my sensitive skin, but were not bad here at all. I had no idea that apple and paprika could have such rejuvenating benefits for skin.
Cons: The salon is pricey. I was lucky enough to receive a gift card to this salon and spa and probably wouldn’t have tried it at all without the extra nudge of a gift card to cover most of it. That said, I was so happy with the service that I would definitely go back or gift a service to a friend.
New customers get twenty percent off of all products. The salon is also very convenient if you work in the metro center area as it is right across the street from Macy’s.

Eric is amazing! I have very difficult hair and he always makes it look perfect. I’ve been coming here for years now.

I had my first visit at Celadon today and received eyebrow services from Susan, who is simply extraordinary. Susan is skilled, knowledgeable and takes her time to meet your expectations, not to mention the fact that she is an absolute gem. Customer service is impeccable, the facility is beautiful and the environment is very relaxing. I will definitely be back.

Susan is a gem! She is calming, skillful and always takes her time. I usually go for the Apple and Paprika facial.
Her message techniques are excellent. She works on your neck or hands while a mask is on and always manages to find the knots. I also love the facial massage which few manage to do well.
My skin always feels great after the facial and she also really knows which products work well for my combination skin.
If only it weren’t so expensive (they just raised the price to $ 155).
I’ve tried a few spas in DC including red door, and Nectar skinbar in Georgetown. And this is truly the best one.

I walked in without an appointment and was lucky to get Michael H. for my blow dry.
He did an excellent job, was meticulous in getting just the right curl and took his time to get it right.
When he handed me his card, I noticed that he also does extensions.
Based upon his work with my blow dry, I booked an appointment for extensions. So glad I did — Michael did an amazing job using Platinum tape-​ins and I am just thrilled with the results. It’s expensive, but worth it. Thanks Michael!

My husband gave me a spa package) to have a spa day (facial, massage, makeup, hair styling) here. He gets five stars.
It was weird scheduling the appointment though. I requested to break it up into two sessions, and that was denied. But when I found a day that would work for me to spend 4 hours there, it took some time to finalize as we had to line up all the staff. It could have been more coordinated.
My appointment was at 11:30 on a Friday. I was spirited from room to room. Even though I ate in advance, I still got hungry as the day progressed. I would have appreciated some time to enjoy all of those cookies and tea that was placed out for guests instead of grabbing them on the go. Stomach rumbles during the massage was kind of distracting. It would have been nice to «relax» between sessions.
Just note that this is a small salon. You can hear what’s going on in the main room when you’re in the back for facials/​massages. It wasn’t that big of a deal to me, but just FYI.
My esthetician and massage therapist were great. (It’s been a few months, so I don’t remember their names anymore :()
Michael, in particular, was fabulous. I was tired by the time it was his turn, so we did not have much of a conversation, but he was unobtrusive and styled my hair perfectly. It looked so beautiful!
Would I go back? Yes. If I find myself in downtown DC. But not on a four hour stretch. The space is too small for a «spa-​like» feel, where you would feel comfortable spending half a day. I hope they will reconsider their policy on using gift certificates in one session.

I recently had a facial with Judith K and I have no choice but to Unilocal about it! Easily the best facial I’ve ever had, it was also the most informative. Judith was extremely knowledgeable about the ingredients of each product she was using on me and she even told me what to sensations to expect so even if it were a slight tingle I was prepared. Even better than the facial are the results — my skin is still glowing more than an entire day later. I’ve had every facial you can imagine but after this one I am sold on the Eminence regimen she recommended and I cannot wait to tell all of my friends and clients about it!

I had my eyebrows waxed here about a month ago. I stopped at this place because its close to my office. I knew it was going to be expensive because I checked the prices out before but I was leaving for vacation and wanted to get my eyebrows done quickly. The salon took my walk in right away which was nice. The waxing part was fine; the entire process took a little but, the tech was very good. My eyebrows looked great initially after; I did notice though they were kind of weird looking when they began to grow back in again. But for $ 35 I would not go back. I just got my eyebrows waxed again at a local nail salon for $ 12 and it was even better than this place. Also they only want cash/​personal check as a tip just as an FYI. The amount was a tad bit ridiculous to get your brows waxed. I know it was pretty convenient for me as a one time thing but I would not go back. I knew going in I was going to pay that amount, I just don’t understand why it is so expensive for such a small area.

I stopped in today for a hard to find brand of cosmetics. I was greeted by genuinely nice people at the register, which set the tone for the rest of my visit. Lucky for me I was personally assisted by Shannon who was more than knowledgeable about the products I came in for and went out of her way to help me find what I needed. Overall great experience here and I would definitely come back and recommend.

Interesting. My friend and I had the exact same thing done — wash and blow dry with some simple curls. She was charged $ 60 (which was expected) and then I was charged $ 20 extra for some curls that were OKAY. But we had THE EXACT SAME SERVICE DONE. So why the extra charge?
Honestly, it’s good my friend wasn’t charged the extra $ 20 because the stylist didn’t even finish curling her hair!
Overpriced and horrible service. Would not recommend this place at all.
One star is for the great shampoo w head massage and the second star is for the space.

Michael Henderson is the best!!!
I was referred to Michael Henderson /​Celadon by a friend to get a curly Deva cut. I went for a consultation and was greeted by a wonderful friendly staff. The staff made me feel very welcome and comfortable while I waited for Michael. Once I was introduced to Michael, he immediately ushered me to his station for a consultation. After asking what I was looking for, going through the texture of my hair and showing me what could give my fine curly 3b hair volume and lift, I was sure he could do the job. I made an appointment and looked forward to working with Michael.
During my appointment, Michael worked meticulously with my hair, making sure I achieve the perfect shape and volume. He was very detailed and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. After a wash and condition, I was ready to go with a beautiful cut that highlighted my curl pattern. I have received many compliments since my cut and I am definitely going back for color. I would recommend Michael for all naturals as we are constantly searching for stylists that can cut curly hair.

A fantastic experience with Emma for my manicure yesterday, but first, let me backtrack:
I lived in DC from 2010 — 2011, and the entire time, my hands looked wretched. I would try places that everyone said were great, and would wind up with crazy-​shaped nails that were so pointy I could poke someone. Then I went to a salon that was «the» place to go to and spent $ 43 (including tip, I still remember this 5 years later) and it was awful. The only time I had great looking hands was when I went home to Boston.
Fast forward to this week: I did not have time for a much-​needed manicure before heading to DC for the day, so after looking on Unilocal and thinking I would take one more chance on a DC manicure, I called Celadon and asked if there was any way I could get an appointment for late-​day the NEXT DAY? I was told yes, that would be great. The receptionist was really nice and that made me feel good.
Emma was ready even before my 4:30 appointment, although I was quite happy to just be sitting and reading a magazine. My nails look FANTASTIC — just a sheer pink — and I could not have been happier! I even got a little goody bag to take with me of samples, and who doesn’t love that???
I was in town for an interview, so I will either be moving back soon — in which case, Emma will be my new manicurist — or I will just remain a DC visitor at this time (and will call for Emma whenever I am in town!).
Thank you!

Customer service was excellent immediately when I walked through the door. The receptionist was extremely friendly and made sure to address me by name.
My wait time was very brief and the masseuse was very friendly. She took her time but still managed to cover every inch within my 1hour time frame. I would definitely recommend!

There is only ONE Nail tech in the place.
She’s as nice as can be BUT people must realize — when you are late for your appointment you push EVERYONE else’s appointment back. It’s not fair to the technician or the patrons that arrive AFTER the late person.
I got a Shellac manicure. It was quick, fast and painless BUT I had to wait 15 minutes after my scheduled time (2pm) because the person at 12pm was late.
They really need to get another person to do nails.
It’s been like this for years. My sister actually warned me but I wanted to try a new place since my former place no longer uses the nail polish that I have grown to love (Shellac or OPI).
The tech gets a raving review — the process of the wait gets a bad review. No amount of free cookies, lemon water, cucumber water or hot drinks would make me a happy camper.

Color didn’t last. I came in with blonde hair and dark roots. I got two colors of low lights and when I left it looked light brown, with no roots. Two weeks later all the color was all gone (and yes, I use color safe salon-​brand shampoo). Bummer because I paid over $ 300 for the color and a trim.
I would recommend their facials — I got a deluxe facial there a few weeks ago, and I think they did a very nice job.

Cynthia Santana, who I used to see at a previous salon, recently moved to Celadon. Cynthia is a color-​wizard, I am always delighted with my color after a visit. It’s clear that she really cares about her work, and whether her clients are happy. She takes time to listen and puts a lot of effort into making sure the results are just right. At Celadon, Cynthia now cuts my hair too, and also did a fantastic job with that. If you’re looking for a good colorist/​stylist in DC, give her a try!
The salon itself is bright, clean and has an extensive retail line of hair and skin products, jewelry, accessories, etc. I’ve never been there for spa services, but I do plan on trying those out. All the staff I met were pleasant and friendly.
