JazziMichelle

First off thanks for your response. I will keep it classy and professional as I think you are too. The hair wasnt $ 9 and even if so, its what I wanted. FYI another professional stylist redid the tracks without a closure, and the hair looks just fine now. Its not the kind of hair that matters its how its sewn in. If $ 3,000 hair isnt sewn in well we arrive at the same circle… She also said the closures you had didnt match the hair I had. Happy new year!

I’m giving 4 stars for the extensions. The only reason I am not giving a 5 star review is bc I did not have any hair services from the company.
I haven’t used Jasmine’s services yet, however I did purchase hair for UEBP on U Street and this is some of the best hair I have ever installed. I was headed on a vacation and needed curly hair last minute and decided to stop by the salon. They happened to be closed when I stopped by, but the young lady at the front was so accommodating and wonderful! I didn’t call beforehand or anything yet she was still very helpful and attentive to all of my needs. I purchased (3) 18 in bundles from the signature curly collection and only needed 2. The lady (I forgot her name) advised that I would only need 2, but a lot of companies say that and you end up needed just a bit more at the end. I am pleased to say this isn’t the case! I have had the hair in for almost a week and have had no shedding at all. I co washed it twice and straightened it once. The hair curls up after a co wash wonderfully and straightens perfectly with my texture (I am natural and have literally a centimeter out on my perimeter and a sliver of leave out to cover the track).
When I take out the installation I will check out the salon for maintenance as well. Wonderful staff, convenient location, and amazing extensions!

I love my hair Jasmine it’s gorgeous thank you so much! My confidence was pretty low but I feel a lot better about myself rocking this new hair! You now have a new regular client see you in a few weeks!

I rarely write reviews on Unilocal but after the Upper Echelon Experience I definitely feel the need to.
Ms. Jazzi was on time and ready to take me right away. I had spoken with her over the phone prior to my appointment and expressed my interest in getting a full closure, but was afraid of it looking like a wig (Ive seen some bad ones). She assured me that she could do it and make it look natural. She also let me know that she had closures in stock and I could buy it from her which was very convenient.
She braided my hair and it didn’t hurt at all. I was very impressed. She has a great personality and we pretty much talked through the whole process which made it go by really fast. Her assistant was also very sweet.
The install was seamless and I loved the finished product. She did a fantastic job and delivered as promised. My sew-​in was flawless.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new stylist. Just make sure you book her a while out, because she is always booked!

JazziMichelle has my hair looking GREAT! I received a full sewin with a closure and I could not be more satisfied with everything! The service was excellent. Little Jasmine detangled and braided my hair perfectly and JazziMichelle really did her thing with my hair. I can’t stop looking in the mirror. This has to be the best place to go for all of your hair needs in the DMV area!

First and foremost, Unilocal is the place I venture when I want the real deal & reviews on services. I don’t care about prices, I care about quality and will definitely pay for such. I conducted heavy research on having my first sew-​in installed in this area (I’m from Georgia) and after much deliberation decided on Upper Echelon.
I booked my appointment via StyleSeat, no problem. I did consult with Ms. Jasmine beforehand and asked if my sew-​in could be versatile, as I am an aerobics instructor and work out alot. She told me that would not be a problem. Cool. My appointment was originally scheduled for noon but due to Ms. Jasmine being under the weather, she asked to push it to 3pm. Again, no problem. I arrived around 2:50pm and Ms. Jasmine was in the process of coloring hair. Once I was seated, well after 3pm, she asked if I had washed and conditioned my hair. I actually thought that was standard before a sew-in…but considering I was a newbie I disregarded it, but if I need to accomplish a prerequisite before arriving just let me know, again, no problem.
The actual sew-​in process was pretty seamless; Ms. Jasmine was quick and the hair is really nice. But during the appointment she had other things going on which led me to leaving at exactly 8:11pm…5 hours and 11 minutes later. I get it, things come up, that’s life but at least ensure that the client is slayed when finished, which leads to this review.
Now in light of everything that’s happened thus far, I can be very flexible but when it comes to my hair I don’t bend… at all. I paid a total of $ 565.00 for 3 bundles of hair, with the color, cut and style. Yea, most people would think I’m ridiculous for paying that and my friend actually laughed at me when I showed her the pictures on this review, but I don’t ever complain about quality so that was never my issue. So remember I want my sew-​in versatile and I have plenty of natural hair for this type of install… versatile weaves have to be braided in a certain manner in order to be able to wear it in different styles, in my case a high ponytail/​bun for my fitness routines.
Alas, maybe I should have pulled my hair up to take a look at the back BEFORE I left the salon to make sure it was good to go. But with a professional such as Ms. Jasmine, I would have thought that would have been a no-​brainer considering the type of sew-​in I had requested.
Once I arrived home I did a quick wrap on my hair and went to bed… however the next morning I had an early gym session and pulled all the hair up into a high bun… my boyfriend noticed it first. It was so embarrassing, considering the price I had paid and the time spent in the salon. You could see my weave tracks… the sew-​in was also really bulky as well, once I had pulled it up. It wasn’t as smooth, like I’ve seen countless times before on others.
I contacted Ms. Jasmine immediately via text and showed her the pictures. Now Unilocalers please be advised, Ms. Jasmine DID agree to fix my hair, saying maybe more hair should be left out, or that she could tuck the track (whatever that means). The day (s) & times she suggested for a do-​over however, just didn’t work for me. I had a photo shoot scheduled and I know the stylists and crew would be doing a variety of techniques with the hair. I also believe that such a professional should not make this kind of amateur mistake and then as a client I shouldn’t now have to take more time out of my schedule for the correction, time I just didn’t have.
This review is only provided to help others, not to disparage or hinder business. Future clients only need to be made cognizant of checking and validating their set style before leaving, which was my dire mistake. My review in comparison to others is not a direct reflection on the proficiency & talent that Ms. Jasmine is capable of, however I was just that first unlucky client that didn’t have the experience or style I had paid and hoped for.
Caveat — If you are not able to service clients and give them the best technique please, please reschedule when you are feeling better. And pictures don’t lie. Sickness as an excuse for a poor job is not my problem… its simply an excuse. I paid for a specific service which was not rendered.

Excellent… it’s that simple. I am very picky about by hair and had actually just washed out a previous stylists work. I’ve been to countless stylist in the area looking for the perfect one for my needs and one that to could deal with my hair type. Jasmine has made my hair life so much better. Plus she has a great personality. I have definitely found my new stylist.

Today I went to Jazz for a partial sew in. First time at all since I never tried braids in my hair. I’m a pixie haircut style woman and I have to say Jazz is very professional, very humble, sweet and takes in consideration any concerns. I feel different, it looks beautiful and sexy! Merry Christmas and don’t think it twice if you want to look good or different.

She’s truly talented and professional! I had a nice experience. The way she did my extensions was flawless and it looks so natural! Make sure you schedule with enough time because her talent is in HIGH demand.

UPDATE!!!
Sooo, I was finally able to make an appointment — i noticed some improvements with booking and communication via StyleSeat. YAY to that!!!
All in All — I was thoroughly impressed. Her salon studio was nice and cozy and very welcoming and was rather easy to find. I am extremely tender headed and I must say although the braiding hurt a little it was done quickly and with skill. However, because my edges were a little tight, next time i will have her assistant leave out the baby hairs in the back ;). The install was fast and i must say i left the salon feeling like a brand new person. Thoroughly impressed with the hair, the technique and the whole upper echelon experience. It’s been almost a month my hair is still looking good, even after a weekend at the beach. I have received so so so many compliments.
I like the fact that Jasmine even followed up with a call/​text to remind me to make an appointment for tightening if needed.
Will be doing business with her again. You should too, you won’t be disappointed with the final outcome.

I just got my hair done by Jasmine yesterday and I love it! This was my first time getting my hair done by her.
Scheduling: Easy and accommodating! I called the day before I wanted to have my hair done and there was no answer. She called me back within the hour even though I didn’t leave a message. I asked if I could come in at a time that was not available on the scheduling website. She provided an alternate time that I agreed to. Later that evening while I was taking out my braids, I knew I would not be able to keep the early appointment that we set. I texted her at midnight and asked for a different time and she was very accommodating!!!
Service: On time and no wait! I arrived a few minutes early and she immediately greeted me and got to work. Shout out the the braider (also named Jasmine) who was not intimidated by my natural hair or the thinning area in one part of my head. She braids very well and the braids were very flat… no lumps or bumps! She and Jasmine discussed the best braid pattern for my unique hair situation before beginning. She (Jasmine the braider) also has a great personality! The weaving didn’t take long at all and looks so natural– like the picture I showed Jasmine when I arrived. I couldn’t be more pleased!
Atmosphere: Lovely! Very professional and very, very nice people! The salon itself is stylish and comfortable!
Overall: If you want great service from very nice people and beautiful hair, make an appointment today! By the way, although most of the pictures on the site are very extravagant (to me at least) Jasmine styles to your preference. I showed her a picture with a more subdued style and she did my hair exactly as I asked!
Thanks so much Jasmine and Jasmine for a great experience, and thanks to your funny friend with the turban!

Jasmine, by far, is the best hair stylist I’ve had !!! She does such an amazing job with my hair! I’ve referred two family members and both have been extremely pleased with her services! Thank you so much Jazz!!!

I’ve been fortunate to call Jasmine my stylist for 8 months now and honestly I don’t know how I’ve managed to miss out all this time. I’ve had several (2… lol) great hairstylist within my 10+ years in No. VA but Jasmine takes the no.1 spot.
She is very talented in styling weaves and extensions which is what I wear. I feel as though she truly puts energy into making your hair look phenomenal. I have had numerous installs which have lasted 2 – 2.5 months with no tightening needed; I do go every two weeks to have her shampoo and style mostly because of her great company and humor. I recently began wearing closures which I was very skeptical about due to what I have seen but Jasmine did not fail to impress. I am amazed at her talent, focus and creative vision! She is hands down one of the best Extension Stylist in the DMV! Client forever!

Very disappointing. Tried multiple times to make an appointment but was never able to do so because all calls rang and went to voicemail which was FULL! Keep in mind, I made several calls over the course of several weeks.
I eventually made an appointment via the styleseat site hoping that would get me somewhere. I tried calling to confirm the appointment, again voicemail full, no answer to calls. I resorted to texting, which did not yield any results.
I was referred to her by a friend and was impressed by the work I saw and her pictures, but this was such an awful experience as I really wanted to become a new client. It’s apparent to me that taking on new clients is of little importance. I wish this had worked out.

Jasmine has been doing my hair for 4+ years and she has never disappoint me.
To the young lady that said her install came out in a couple weeks, I don’t believe you. I’ve had over 50 installs from Jasmine and I only went to have 2 of them tighten. The first time was because I went to Puerto Rico and was in the water all day every day for 5 days straight. The second time was because I was attending a event and really just wanted to have it styled and said what the heck I might as well have it tighten too. Jasmine and her assistant Little Jasmine are always sweet, respectful and fast. The only problem I have ever experienced with Jasmine is communication. However, she’s a stylist with hundreds of clients. She always gets get back to me before my appointments to touch base with me and that’s all I need.
Ladies please don’t go by the bad reviews. You will definitely miss out on the best weave in the DMV :)

My hair… looks… fabulous! Jasmine and her assistant, another Jasmine, are a great team. I went in with freshly washed, conditioned, and semi dry natural hair. After living in the dmv area for over a year, i have been underwhelmed and sometimes disgusted by some of the weave work I’ve seen. Assistant Jasmine got right to work, getting all this hair braided flatter than a sheet of paper! Her braid pattern is great, and my braids feel secure and not too tight. The whole time i was chatting with this incredibly talented, beautiful, young assistant, who is pleasant and sweet. Next, Jasmine the stylist showed me the hair and closure i bought from her, which was soft, thick, and prepared for my service. Me, the ever-​discriminating customer, explained the technique and look i wanted, complete with pics and videos and boy did she accommodate me! She was quick in sewing it in, conscious of pulling my brains and edges out, and the final style was beautiful; she really took time to make it look good. She is professional, knowledgeable and kind. I will be back in two months, and i will be buying my hair from her from now on… she makes upart wigs too! She also got me starbucks and a sample of shampoo and conditioner to care for my hair. I’m a sucker for perks. Go see her!

After SEVERAL stylists that disappointed me, Jasmine is the only person I will allow to touch my hair. She is timely, professional and TALENTED! I recommend her to all my friends and am so grateful to have found someone that actually knows what they are doing with my hair!

This woman is absolutely AMAZING!!! For being so young, she is extremely professional, pleasant to talk to, and gifted. I had a full sew-​in with no strand left out on Saturday and she was able to give me exactly what I was looking for, beautiful layers and a natural side part that looks like my own. She also braided my hair small, flat, and neat. I literally won’t be going anywhere and have found my new stylist. I promise you won’t be disappointed and highly recommend her!
