This year we celebrate 45 years of David’s Beautiful People, a top-ranked hair salon in North North Bethesda, MD. David and Evie Cohen opened the salon’s doors and their own hearts to their clientele in 1973.
We all know hairstyles have changed since 1973. Charlie’s Angels Jaclyn Smith, Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson. Our 45 years of haircuts, hair coloring, hair extensions, and other salon services stay current and chic with today’s styles.
We serve the North North Bethesda community and the Greater Washington D.C. Area with years of experience and a passion for our craft.
Here are some things we have learned from 45 years in business, but not all our secrets!
Make our clients feel comfortable.
How? Great customer service. Pampering clients has not changed much since we opened our doors in 1973. We give our clients a taste of paradise and hope they carry that happiness into other parts of their lives. Our original motto was “Welcome to our home.”
If our clients are comfortable, they can open up about their hair and styling desires and be themselves. Our stylists know what questions to ask and how to make everyone in the chair feel comfortable. This way, we can best align our services with a client’s expectations.
We aim to give our clients the best salon experience of their life. Any hair salon can provide complimentary wifi, snacks, coffee/tea/hot chocolate, water – we do too. But it’s the people who really create David’s warm and exciting atmosphere.
Invest in our employees.
Our stylists have more than 445 years of experience between them all. With stylists doing hair since the 70’s to those born into today’s modern styles, we continue to educate everyone on industry trends and techniques.
We spend $50,000 annually on employee training; that’s over $2.25 million since we started. This includes classes and traveling to hair shows, international style hubs, and competitions.
This means we attract some of the best talent in the industry.
Our stylists train with Wella Professionals, Glemby International, Elizabeth Arden, Intercoiffure, L’Oreal, Goldwell, Antena, Trevor Sorbie, Toni and Guy, and Sassoon to name a few. Many have certifications of expertise from these organizations. Some stylists are regularly published in International trade publications.
Take it from David who said, “Our team was created to work as a partnership. For you. For each other. For our salon.”
Expertise means higher quality.
A great haircut, hair coloring, hair extensions, mani/pedi, makeup, bridal styling, and other advanced salon services require experience, attention to detail, and great communication.
We keep our stylists up-to-date on the latests styles, trends, and techniques to give our clientele the highest quality styling services in North North Bethesda, MD.
The results of a top-rated haircut and styling are obvious, but do not come easy. But constant emphasis on experience and teamwork deliver quality services to new and long-time clients.
Know how to help people try something new.
Many of our clients walk into our hair salon ready to try something new. And others are apprehensive about the idea of change.
We are in the business of fresh looks and want our clients to feel like their best self.
A new haircut, color, makeup scheme, hair extensions, a perm, or even switching to a new shampoo can be a big step for people. So, we match our clients’ personal style to one of our stylists to bring out the best version of them.
We lower the risk of trying something new with our expertise and personalized approach. We are NOT a one-size-fits-all hair salon.
Know what brides want on their wedding day.
There are a lot of different types of brides out there; but, from our experience no bride wants to worry about their hair on their big day.
So, we created a variety of bridal packages to for brides and grooms-to-be to choose from.
Big wedding, small wedding, traditional or modern, lots of hair or a shorter cut, our stylists adapt to fit the needs of the wedding party. Make-up, nails, pedicure, hair extensions, hair color can all be arranged for just the bride or everyone in the party.
Brides who work with David’s Beautiful People perfect their look from the first-time complimentary consultation to the trial-run about one month before the wedding so everything goes smoothly on The Big Day. And, we offer a “Traveling Salon Service” for the bride’s convenience at the home or place of meeting.
With a client-centric approach to our Bridal Packages combined with the expertise of our stylists, it makes sense that David’s Beautiful People was named “Top Bridal Salon” by the Washingtonian Magazine.
Help clients achieve salon-fresh hair everyday.
Over the years, we have heard from hundreds of clients who had the same complaint: their new haircut or style did not stay long after they left the salon.
Before, they would try drugstore hair products through trial and error before they found one that sufficed or until they gave up finding the perfect fit entirely.
That’s why we provide products that help clients maintain their hair and styling well after they leave the salon. David’s Beautiful People private label line of Hair Care Products uses only the finest known and tested products. We also carry the top brands in the industry.
Embrace technology.
Technology changed a lot over the past 45 years, and we embrace it to offer our clients the best salon experience possible.
We have an easy online booking platform, for first timers and long timers. Our record-keeping information system keeps all our clients’ visits and stylings on file. That way, if a client wanted the same color, perm, highlights, or cut each time, they can have that no matter which stylist they have.
We outfitted our color room with a specialized ventilation system with standing air filter exchanges to protect the health of clients and stylists.
Keeping up with technological advances ensures our customers are happy and that we continue to be the best in the business.
Trust your hair, makeup, and nail needs with David’s Beautiful People. We’ve learned a lot, but we are not done learning. When it all comes down to it, we hope you feel welcome in our home. Schedule an appointment today! Call 301-881-2540 or schedule online here.
