Blackbird Salon

Sometimes building your dream means taking a leap of faith. 🖤  When we opened Blackbird during COVID, it meant taking big risks, believing in our vision, and yes...maxing out a few credit cards along the way.

Next week, we’re celebrating 6 years since officially opening our doors, and looking back, we’d make the same choice every time. Thank you to every client, team member, and supporter who’s been part of this journey. You helped turn a dream into the salon Blackbird is today!

When the documentary drops, but you’ve been getting the uncut version at every appointment. 🤭🍿 Being a hairstylist means hearing all the life updates, plot twists, and happy endings. But, don’t worry! Your secrets are always safe with us. 🤍

We’re so excited to welcome the newest member of the Blackbird team, Katie! 💁‍♀️ 🤍  Katie specializes in blonding, brunettes, lived-in color, and extensions, and she’s ready to help you achieve your dream hair.

She is also new to the DC area, so let’s give her a warm welcome! Drop your favorite restaurants, coffee shops, local spots, or hidden gems in the comments to help her explore the city. ⬇️✨

Want curls that actually last? 👀 One of the biggest styling secrets is simple: don’t touch them right away! Allowing your curls to cool completely helps them set, so they hold their shape longer and maintain more bounce throughout the day.

Turn the volume up... this is what a day at Blackbird sounds like. 🖤 ✨  From scissors snipping to blow dryers humming and brushes gliding through fresh hair, these are the little sounds that make salon days so satisfying.
