My loyalty to ROY is undeniable.
First, and foremost, let me be very clear. I have high expectations about my hair color.
Whether I am going for highlights, or what I refer to as my "Jennifer Aniston" blonde stage...
or a fun, shorter hair style...
or back to my brunette roots,
they do a great job at making my hair look healthy and fabulous.
ROY is the epitome of VIP treatment without the Pretentious BS. How? Whether you are a first time customer, or a loyal client, such as myself. A stylist will sit down with you for a personal consultation. What is more, they write down the things that are important to you. If you need them to, they also offer guidance in hair color, corrective color, and hairstyles that will work best for you. As if that were not enough, in the winter or colder months, they ask to take your coat...Any season they offer you a drink: coffee, wine, water? What’s even more fabulous, you do not have to be dressed to the nines to get this type of treatment at ROY.
I simply love going to ROY and I am banking on the fact that you will too, if you give them a try! If you decide to go, please be sure to say that you heard about them from 
Cate.
I have been going to Reflections of You Salon and Spa for about nine months now, and I love it!!! I moved to the area and I was very hesitant to try a new salon. The staff of ROY Salon made me feel very welcome and the salon is EXTREMELY clean, which is sometimes hard to find. They offer me a drink and some kind of dessert every time I go. I never feel out of place there! The environment is very relaxing and welcoming. Their shampoo chairs are amazing. They recline and massage!!!
I see a variety of stylists there, because I like the different points of views from different stylists. All of the people that have cut and colored my hair have done an amazing job, and for that I am very, very happy!!!
I also know that the stylists go to several styling and trend classes throughout the year, which is awesome. They are on top of the trends!!! Yaya!!! I love Reflections of You Salon and Spa. Julia M.
I was long overdue for a haircut and desperate for a qualified stylist who actually understands what I want. I was able to secure an appointment with Heather as she was kind enough to squeeze me in at the end of her day. She was very gracious and surprisingly energetic for someone who had been on her feet all day. She listened carefully to what I wanted and then made a few suggestions based on the condition of my hair. The final result was better than I had hoped for and a wonderful experience all around. Everyone I had contact with was professional and personable. The whole time I was there I had no doubt that my satisfaction was their top priority and sadly these days that isn't common. I don't get my hair cut often enough but the next time I'm ready it will be with Heather. Thanks to all the staff that helped to make my visit so enjoyable. Rita P.
When I want the best, I go to the best. The ambiance and service at Reflections Fairfax is top notch. It's more than a hairdo... it's an experience. From the massaging at the sink to the brushing of my hair, I leave loving the new reflections of me! Stacy Gurdon
I have followed Heather and her team to ROY and Heather (specifically) for a number of years.
She has truly mastered the art of color that is natural and flattering to my skin tone, time of year and texture of my hair. I am rarely concerned about how it will turn out and trust her judgment about what will work for "me". I am not one who is prone to make extreme changes and she is sensitive to that, often making recommendations for subtle shifts that help me keep my hair in the most healthy condition and in a style that works for my personality and career. She is also a wonderful teacher; continuously educating her clients on new products and approaches that surface in the industry that we can use ourselves. Cathie Murensky
Prior to finding Heather and Reflections of You Fairfax, I usually felt quite a bit of trepidation before any hair appointment. In the past, I was never certain that my needs were of importance to the person wielding the scissors behind my head. I heard rumors about stylists who were good at their jobs and actually listened to their customers, but did not believe them to be true. My visits to Reflections of You Fairfax have really opened my eyes to how pleasant the salon experience can be. I am never worried when I take a seat in Heather's chair as I am sure that all of my questions and concerns will be professionally addressed. Every member of the staff is courteous and kind, the environment is relaxing, and the products used are excellent. I would not hesitate to recommend the salon to a friend. Erika R.
Until I found Heather at Reflections of You Fairfax, I went to a different salon every time I needed a hair cut or color. I could never find anyone that could understand what I wanted.......it was exhausting. When I met Heather and her staff, I could tell that I was going to have a different experience. They immediately made me feel welcome and at home. Heather actually explained to me some issues with my hair and gave me suggestions of possibilities to consider. I have never been more satisfied because for the first time, my hair is manageable and easy to style. That is exactly what I have been looking for!
Thanks Heather Norma Dunwoody
I have been with Heather since before ROY. Her demeanor is professional and she is one of the best hairdressers I have been to. Prior to Heather I had moved from one salon to another every few years. In addition to being professional, she is also lighthearted and fun. Her salon is very comfortable, attractive and relaxing and the people who work with her are top quality.
Sharon
I'm a new customer and I'm thrilled to have been referred to ROY, especially, Heather. She has extensive knowledge on all hair types. I am so pleased with my new hairstyle. She is customer sensitive, a good listener, provides constructive suggestions, and knows what she's doing! I wish you continued great success. Heather you're the best!

Rebecca Litalien - Hair Stylist
I just got home from my first hair appointment with Rebecca at ROY, and I can not stop looking at my amazing hair!! Before I say anything else, I should say I have a lot of experience with BAD salons in this area, I have cried in my car after cuts and color more times than I'd like to admit. This was not that kind of experience. From the moment I called to make an appointment I had high hopes. The receptionist, Katelyn is fabulous. She was so friendly on the phone and in person I immediately felt at ease. Then I met Rebecca. I am getting married in 7 months, and I was so unhappy with my hair and want it to look beautiful for our wedding. From bad color, terrible split ends and a mediocre cut I left with super model hair. Rebecca sat down with me and went over everything she was going to do in detail and gave me the price for everything!! I have never had a salon do that before, I would always be surprised with a mystery number not previously discussed. She listened to everything I wanted and my concerns and was very realistic about what we'd be able to do. Did I mention my color was awful before? It was a faded red (box job) and I wanted to go Reece Witherspoon blonde. What Rebecca did for my color is a miracle!! She revived my sad limp hair, and it is beautiful and far better than I could have expected. She was also very honest with me that if she made me as blonde as I wanted in one process, my hair would be fried. I'm happy she told me, so now we can do it in steps, and keep my hair from additional major damage. But this color doesn't look like an in-between color - it's beautiful! Not only were Katelyn and Rebecca fantastic, the whole staff was friendly and cheerful. I made an appointment to come back in a month to keep my hair looking fantastic for our wedding. Now I am confident my hair will look the best it has in years for our wedding and I am so happy and excited. I've finally found a salon in NOVA that I want to keep going back to! Chelsea (2/5/2011)
Absolutely a great place. I'm new to the area, and it's always difficult to find a new person to cut your hair. I've been four times and seen a few different stylists, all great. I'm sticking with Rebecca. She's personable, knowledgeable, and talented. I'm a guy who enjoys looking good but doesn't want to spend a ton of time on his appearance. Rebecca understood my needs and gave me the exact haircut and direction I wanted. I would recommend this place to anyone in the area. Lee (1/28/2011)
Reflections of You in Fairfax is a pleasure to visit with its modern atmosphere and friendly staff. My stylist and colorist Rebecca is fantastic with blond highlights! It is not easy to find someone who can get the color just right and then blend it so it looks natural. I recommend her to everyone. Tina M.
This is my third visit at Reflections of You. All three times I have seen Rebecca. Initially I came in with an unfortunate hair cut from another salon in Ashburn and said HELP! She not only fixed the problem but gave me a really great look that is low maintenance too! I am never disappointed when I leave. I highly recommend her. Lisa M.
I have known Rebecca Litalien for almost ten years and she has been the only hair stylist that I have trusted since long before she earned her Cosmetology License. I have long hair, and unfortunately I cannot make up my mind as to whether I should be a blond or a brunette. Rebecca has been able to give me the back-&-forth hair color that I want, along with the care & caution that I need to keep my hair healthy.
I have never been disappointed by a cut or color done by Rebecca, and I am not easy to please, as there have been countless times when I left my former hair stylist in tears! I have not made it easy for Rebecca to achieve this happiness either! I tend to see several different styles & color combinations that I like, then throw them all at Rebecca saying "I want a little of this, and a little of that! But wait... I want some of this too!" She somehow manages to give me everything that I want with a style that looks complete; not like a million things rolled into one!
On top of giving Rebecca a bunch of ideas that usually do not make sense, I am also a bit on the lazy side when it comes to my hair. I don't own a flat iron, I got my curling iron when I was in elementary school, I only blow dry my hair because I think it is unprofessional to go to work with wet hair, and I use absolutely NO product! While Rebecca gives me several easy suggestions and simple tips to boost my morning hair routine, she is able to create a style that is very low maintenance, but still hip and trendy.
I have recommended several friends and family members to Rebecca and they immediately understand why having her as their hair stylist is a necessity. These family members include my mother, who has never been able to completely cover her grays until she met Rebecca and my aunt from North Carolina who now schedules more frequent visits just to see Rebecca.
There are not words that speak highly enough of Rebecca's talent, professionalism, and personality. She has a gift that years of schools would not be able to match. Annie S.
Rebecca is my go-to stylist for everything I need. Her professional, upbeat attitude combined with her vast knowledge of hair styling and coloring keep me coming back to Reflections Of You frequently.
Her eagerness to please her customers and give them exactly what they want in a hairstyle ensure that I always leave a highly satisfied customer. Zoe S.
Finally! I have finally found a great salon! Before visiting Reflections of You in Fairfax I did an internet search on Google and read all of the wonderful reviews aboout ROY. I decided to call and see if I could book an appointment, the lady that answered the phone was Amber. I remember her name because she was so polite and professional with the way she answered the phone and even asked for my name before asking why I called! Amber was helpful in booking me an appointment and I even received a phone call as a reminder! When I arrived at the salon I was greeted by the front desk staff and offered a refreshment, they even hung my jacket up for me.
I only waited a few seconds before my stylist, Rebecca, came to greet me and walk with me to her chair. She spoke with me about my hair and my routine for styling it. She offered suggestions and appeared very confident that she was going to give me something I would love! (Which she did!) She walked me to the shampoo area where I received the most magical shampoo of my life! I sat in a reclining chair that gave me a back massage!
Rebecca reccommended that I invest in a deep conditioning treatment because of old highlights that had damaged my hair. It was extremely relaxing because they wrapped a warm towel around my hair while I waited! Once I got back to Rebecca she talked me through my hair cut step by step explaining exactly what she was doing and why. She told me about the products she was using, and why they were the best for my hair. She seemed to have a lot of knowledge about the line, Surface. I have been using them for a week and love them! I liked that Rebecca did not make me feel pressured to purchase them... While she styled my hair, she took the time to explain how she was doing it to make it easier for me to do at home! The girl that rang me out, Kaitlin, gave me the discounted price anyways. Which, I thought was very nice. Talk about a WOW experience. Rebecca has a lot of passion for her work, and she was extremely professional! I am looking forward to seeing her again! When I went to pay, I had forgot my coupon that I printed! Google review (oct 2010)
After 11 years in this area, I have finally found my stylist and salon. The front desk employees immediately made a great first impression. They were friendly and efficient. I called to make an appointment, not expecting to get in for at least a week, but due to a cancellation, they accomodated me immediately. Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed and offered a refreshment.
My stylist forever is Rebecca. She is no-nonsense, offers suggestions and here's the kicker - EXPLAINS why she is suggesting it. As she colored/highlighted and styled my hair, she explained, throughout the entire process, what she was doing, why she was doing it, what the end result would be and how it was going to work with my very active lifestyle. She recommended (but didn't push) the products that would help me minimize the damage that swim/bike/run training - which can be tough on hair - can cause. We also talked about how I hoped to wear my hair for my wedding in September and what needed to happen in order for it to be in the best shape and potentially what we would do colorwise... she took my lifestyle, my hopes for my wedding hair style and the neglected mess in front of her and sent me out fully informed and with great hair.
The salon itself was spacious, beautifully done and CLEAN. Lola did my shampoo and she was awesome. I can't wait to go back.

Anita Ramos-Zaatar - Hairstylist & Esthetician
Dear Anita, Thanks a lot for the up-do you performed on my hair on July 30th. Many people have said they loved it. I appreciate the artistic talent you demonstrated and the work you put in. I felt confident during the ceremony, and party as well. Many Thanks, Ngocdiep T.
The best cut, style & color I have ever had for my very curly hair. Anita shaped my hair beautifully to frame my face, she left some length, and cut my hair in a way that made it very manageable. Also, the color was the most flattering I've ever had. Anita didn't try to persuade me to have my hair combed out in a way that would straighten it. I left with my curls looking shiny & beautiful. Also the massaging chairs you sit in when you are having your hair washed are incredibly relaxing. The salon is very low-key & professional.
I want to commend Anita Zaatar on the wonderful person she is. My sister had a debilitating stroke and she was so kind and patient with her. She did an excellent job on her hair and made her feel so good about herself, that my sister applied makeup with her one good hand. You are very fortunate to have Anita on staff. Sherry Berks
Before discovering Anita, I couldn't find anyone who could get my hair color and style right. My hair is naturally curly & is turning a drab shade of gray. Anita immediately got my hair color right. Its now a shade that brightens up my face, and the cut is great & easy to maintain between visits.
Anita was giving free cuts at Celebrate Fairfax. How lucky I was! She's talented with color and style and I always enjoy talking with her. I have spent large portions of my life with bad haircuts but she made my day! I've been with her now for many years and have never had a bad cut. GO! Sarah (10/12/2011)
Whether it is for a cut, color or facial, the shop appears to be on the cutting edge of technology, new products and styles. Look at the wall of honor - showing all of the awards and citations in fashion and hair magazines!! Even if my hair is shoulder or below the ear in length, if I choose to change my style - it is done with interest and super consultation and done beautifully.
I have sent countless friends and neighbors to the shop to get "treated" and each one has enjoyed the experience and become permanent clients. I am a ROY fan. Sincerely, DJ Garrett
Sara Schantz - Hairstylist
I absolutely love Sara!!! She does an awesome job and everybody there is so nice!!! Neko (2/12/2011)
I am very happy with my hair- I got a shorter cut done by Sara a few days ago. First impressions are everything: She looked and acted professionally and had a really pretty hair style *that I now want!* She was pleasant and did a wonderful job...the real test was waking up the next day and being able to do it myself. My hair has more volume and body than it has had in a while. I often drive right by this salon, so I am glad I gave them a shot. Will definitely go back for her to do my color and will report here! simplehiccup d.
After I spent quite some time browsing the web and reading reviews about the salons in the area, i decided to try ROY. I had thick heavy long hair for 3 years now, and I was a little afraid to trust someone in doing a good job cutting it to a medium length while giving it a nice shape. I'm the mom of a 10-months-old, and I'm starting nursing school next week, so I wanted something age(27) and school-appropriate, easy to manage, feminine, neat, but a little playful. I walked in to ROY without having an appointment. Lucky me, the place was quiet(Wednesday around noon), and the receptionist assigned me to Sara. After introducing ourselves, she asked about the ways I usually treat/style my hair, and to try to describe in three words what I'd like my new hair to be. So, I told her the above mentioned attributes and it seemed that she got a grip of what I wanted. After a pretty good hair wash/massage(by Lale who offered to trim my eyebrows, but understood that that was not the purpose of my visit, so she didn't push it), Sara started to cut my hair. I appreciated it that she took her time and always made sure that i was ok with what she was doing next and that I liked what she did so far. The whole experience from walking in to walking out probably took about 1.5-2 hours, but it definitely worth it, 'cause I got a great hair cut!!!! Also, I must mention that she had a professional attitude and she was gentle with my hair(not like the lady who pulled out half of may hair the last time I got a hair cut ). She did tell me about the products that would benefit my hair, but she was not pushy in any way. While getting ready to leave, I took a peak into the mirror again, and who I'm guessing is the owner or manager of the place, kindly asked me if everything was ok with my haircut. I said yes, i just needed to get used to it a bit (I got bangs- hadn't have them since high school). One more thing, I almost forgot, the price. The whole thing cost me 45 dollars - I say this is a pretty neat price for a wash, cut, dry, and style. I was/am extremely satisfied. I love my new look, and guess what? my husband likes it too. Ok, I hope I said it all....ROY- great place, Sara -great stylist!!! E.A, Vienna, VA
I have been coming to ROY Fairfax for a little over a year now and have always received great service. I recently came in for a cut and color and have to tell that I received exceptional service from Sara Schantz. It was my first time seeing Sara and I can truly say that I feel like she goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable while you are with her. My wonderful service did not stop when my appointment ended either, as I have received a thank you card from her along with a follow-up phone call to see if I was satisfied with the outcome of the visit. I work in the service industry and know that exceptional service should always be applauded. You have found a great find in Sara and I look forward to my next appointment with her. Thank you, Dawn Whitaker
AMAZING PLACE. Sara is great and her quality of work and understanding is unbeatable. I was the type that always fought my hair and hated to spend money on it, but Sara has helped to create a hair style I love an can't live without. Everyone is friendly and will work with you to get you whatever you like. Or help you experiment if you're bored! Cannot say enough good things about this place and Sara. Thank you, J. (Oct 6, 2011)
AWESOME SERVICE, DECOR and STAFF. I had my haircut on Wednesday and am just amazed at the quality of service and friendliness of the staff. Everyone actually looks happy to be there and from the minute you walk through the door and are greeted by Katelynn you want to be there. Sara cut and styled my hair after a pretty thorough consultation which was a pleasant surprise for a guy's haircut. I have tried most of the other "good" salons in the area. ROY is head and shoulders above the rest. Thank you, John (Oct 8, 2011)
Amanda Jones - Hairstylist
Absolutely LOVE this place. Best haircut EVER (I'm 27 with long thick waves of brown).
Made my first appointment at ROY and was treated like a VIP client as soon as I walked in. While I sipped iced tea out of a wine glass, Amanda sat down with me for a free consultation about my hair likes/dislikes/characteristics, etc., so that she could better understand what I was looking for. 2 hours later, I walked out with new semi-permanent color (Color Gloss), a few more layers in my mane, some Devacurl product, and a brand new outlook on life. Amanda explained in detail how the product would work with my hair and made me feel extremely comfortable and excited. A day later, I still look amazing.
I chose this salon based on the incredible reviews and am so thankful that I did. Amanda was fabulous, knowledgeable, professional, and fun. Prices are very reasonable for the expertise and atmosphere.
Although I live in Silver Spring, MD, I will definitely return to Fairfax for my next cut and color. And although I usually am not a proponent of peer pressure... DO IT! DO IT! DO IT! Dayna L. (10/5/2011)
Tisa Robbins - Hairstylist, Nail & Waxing Specialist
I have been going to ROY and Tisa for a few years now and I absolutely LOVE her!! What I really like about her and her technique is that each time I get a hair cut/color, she cuts it a bit differently and the outcome is always funky and cool....rock starish quality and that is what I am going for! Another thing I have to say about Tisa is that she can work with what I am asking of her. I often have grand ideas for my hair...sometimes unrealistic, but Tisa listens, takes her time, puts her art into it, and always comes up with a solution that fits my personality and my look. She works magic and I think she must be telepathic in this way!! Additionally, she has great color-vision and foresight. Her advice has always been sound and she has been honest and up front with me every time. These are a few reasons why I keep going to her and to the salon. Danyele M. (3/4/2011)
