This is hands down the best hair salon I’ve ever been to.

Every member of the team is kind, welcoming, and genuinely fun to be around. You can tell they’re incredibly talented, and honestly, their work speaks for itself.

Ruby has created such a special environment that really emphasizes learning and professional growth. Every time I visit, I hear about new techniques they’re exploring and skills they’re developing, which makes me feel like I’m always in the best, most up-to-date hands.

I’ve never had a haircut that felt this thoughtful and informed. I was given such a clear and detailed breakdown of my hair type, how my products interact with my hair, and why certain products and styles would work best for me. They also took the time to explain how different cuts would complement my lifestyle and routine.

What I appreciated most was how seen and understood I felt. They really listened to what I wanted while also guiding me with expert insight—explaining the “why” behind every decision. That level of care and transparency is something I’ve never experienced before with a stylist.

I even got to try hair tinsel, which was such a fun bonus!

I absolutely love The Lab and will 100% be coming back—and recommending it to everyone I know....more

Ruby does a phenomenal job on my hair, each appointment topping the last. The hair cuts and color always exceed my expectations and I always walk out feeling confident. I’ve also received services from other stylists at the lab. They are all amazing at what they do and are lovely people inside and out! I bring my teenage daughter in as well for her own appointments. We trust in this salon and will continue to be at the Lab for many more years to come!...more

If you're looking for a salon that truly goes above and beyond, The LABoratory in Alexandria is it. From the moment you sit down, you can tell this is not your average salon experience. The shampoo alone is worth the visit, and a special shoutout to Harley for giving me the best shampoo I have ever had. It is a small detail that sets the tone for the level of care you receive throughout your entire appointment.

What sets The LABoratory apart is how intentional every stylist is with their craft. Rather than just jumping into a cut, the stylists take real time to understand your hair, its texture, its needs, its history, and they actually educate you along the way. I left not only with a great cut but with a deeper understanding of how to care for my own hair. That kind of thoughtfulness is rare and genuinely hard to find.

Beyond the talent, the energy in this salon is unmatched. I was laughing the entire time, and it never felt forced because these stylists genuinely care about the people in their chairs. It is clear that Ruby has built an incredible culture here. I have had the chance to speak with every stylist, and each one is just as warm, skilled, and passionate as the next. When an owner sets that kind of standard, it shows in every single person on the team. Highly recommend....more

I have been a client of Ruby’s for over a decade. I can personally speak to her helping me navigate the hair changes that accompany the hormonal roller coaster of multiple pregnancies and postpartum periods. She has guided me going to and from mid length hair to pixie and all the stages in between. She understands many different textures of hair, and I’ve witnessed her color transformations on other clients. I’ve been privy to watching her invest and grow her staff with compassion and patience.

As for the salon experience, you can look forward to fun music at a volume level where you can still speak with your stylist. Complimentary beverages. A warm reception where everyone is acting professionally, but you don’t have to be anyone you aren’t when you walk through their doors. Dress up if that’s your thing, come in your comfy clothes if it’s been “one of those days.” You can simply relax and know you are in good hands. The salon also stocks several products you can purchase if you like, but I’ve never felt pressured to purchase....more
