I had a hair emergency, I tried calling all the salons nearest my Airbnb and this was the only one that actually picked up the phone. Tyler helped me and made my hair so beautiful again! I needed a color correction, and it turned out even better than before my little mistake. He was such a sweetheart and really worked a miracle for me, thank you!

Shanna gives THE BEST hair wash with strong fingers and attention to temples and neck. She provides an attentive cut with beautiful styling. I wish she could style me every day. Well worth the time and price.

Memory lane: I was a customer at Mariposa when NY Brenda was in Mid City and sometimes her DC husband manned the reception desk. If I recall correctly, she started at Orleans St then moved by the Rouse's on N Carrollton. Her training of junior stylists is elite. If you're thinking of going to a Dominican salon, skip that assembly line and come here. It's not cheaper here but all stylists at this place are legit, and can cut, dye, blow dry, and smoothen hair efficiently and with care. I've moved away since, and the salon has since moved to the garden district, so every time I visited town I made sure to book myself in Brenda's chair for a blowout. She's worth the lead stylist premium. Every place I have moved, I need to have 5 hair salons on standby (I need a village to support my high maintenance hair) just to replace her. I wish I can fly to her every month to get my hair done. She's a true pro!

Shanna and the team here are AMAZING! Shanna did my updo for a wedding a few weeks ago and it was beautiful and held all night long. I went back for a haircut yesterday and I could not love it more!!! If you want someone who is dedicated to and excellent at her craft, look no further than Shanna…I will never go anywhere else again!!!Services: Updos

I was in town for a wedding and hotel recommended this salon. I had an updo with Shana and makeup with Sam. They both did a fantastic job. Great experience. On time and done in a timely fashion. Salon was clean and professional. A+

Everyone at Mariposa Salon is friendly and the light-filled space is gorgeous! I had my color touched up and a haircut by SAMANTHA and she did an amazing job. She listened to what I was going for an executed on what I was envisioning perfectly. She’s also just a really great person to spend 2 hours with, I couldn’t recommend her more.Services: Haircut

I went into this completely blindly, never having work with Brenda’s team here at Mariposa I am so picky about my hair, but I went on a whim, and had highlights and a haircut done by Tyler. All I can say is wow.... Tyler is so talented at his craft, and took my hair and made it absolutely incredible! I cannot recommend Mariposa / Brenda's staff, ESPECIALLY Tyler, more than I can describe in words on a survey!if you’re shopping around or looking for a new stylist or salon, just try them one time! I guarantee you will be hooked! They’re one giant family, and they treat you like you’re being welcomed into their home and family! It's not just a classy & beautiful salon.They even let my mini golden doodle sit next to me and roam around a little bit.To review: it was just an all-incredible "experience" & my visit was a five star, or an A+ rating. I now have family over at Mariposa salon!

I came in for a full highlight in Sept. 2022 to visit a specific stylist, then got there and found out the salon had changed my stylist without telling me. My service also included hidden fees and cost much more than I anticipated. My complaints are with Mariposa salon, not with the stylist who performed my service.I didn't figure out that my booking had been switched from Kristen to another stylist until I was in the wrong stylist's chair. At that point, it was was too late for me to address it without making the stylist doing my highlights feel uncomfortable, & frankly it wasn't her problem to deal with anyway. But I had originally booked with Kristen because she's a curl enthusiast and did a wonderful job on my friend's curly hair & the other stylist wasn't a curl specialist.Come to find out, the salon switched my booking at its own discretion, without mine or Kristen's permission. I don't understand why they chose not to communicate with me about it. I only booked at that salon for Kristen, and I don't appreciate that they changed my appointment without asking either of us.Hidden fees also significantly changed the price of my service, which started at $225. I figured the price would increase somewhat, but not to $390. In a decade of getting full highlights, I've never had such a dramatic price increase. Had I known this was a possibility, I would have booked elsewhere because I'm not in a position to spend over $400 on one hair appointment. After reviewing my itemized receipt, I found separate charges for a bond builder (mixed into the bleach) and blow-dry, which made up about half of the cost increase. I was never asked if I wanted a bond builder in my bleach or a blow-dry, they just did both.I never would have known they used a bond builder, but a few bowls of bleach into the service I asked her a question about haircare. While answering, she mentioned that there was a bond builder mixed into the bleach. Even then, she didn't mention that it was a $50 upcharge.Same goes to the blow-dry—if you expect blow dry your clients' hair, include it in the price. Otherwise, tell them they can leave with wet hair or pay extra for a blow-dry. Don't surprise them with the cost of a blowout at checkout when nobody asked them if they wanted it in the first place.I won't be returning to mariposa salon because they gave me the impression that they don't care to treat their stylists or customers properly. Also, I found out that Kristen has since changed salons and got a service done at her new place. She did amazing. Girl knows her curls!Service: Hair highlighting

Took my daughter to dye her hair, we got there at 4 and left at 9, her hair wasn't even done. We had to go back 3 days later and the color was still uneven. not worth $400.Services: Hairstyling

Everyone here was very nice, but my haircut couldn’t be farther from what I wanted. I showed pictures and expressed that I wanted long layers and curtain bangs, but left with hair right below my shoulders and shorter choppy layers. I’m not even sure that I will be able to put it up in a ponytail for work. It looks like a wolf cut. I cried as soon as I made it back to my car.Service: Hairstyling
