Riva's Hair Style

Riva is an amazing professional! I came in with a badly cut bob, and he skillfully transformed it into a beautiful short bob. He’s not only highly skilled, but also incredibly friendly and attentive. Fixing a poorly done short haircut isn’t easy, but he did it flawlessly. I highly recommend him — not everyone can pull that off. I’ll definitely be coming back as a regular client!

Excellent, honest and well priced service. I switched to Riva’s for Brazilian keratin hair treatments - my previous salon included hidden fees, and trims costs were not disclosed. Riva is honest, professional, kind, and cares about his clients. You know exactly what you’re paying for before entering his salon, and he does not overcharge for add on services. I highly recommend him to anyone needing this treatment. He’s also a lot of fun to talk to!

**Disappointed and Shocked by the Experience** I normally don’t leave reviews, but my friend who recommended this place encouraged me to share what happened. I was looking for a new hairdresser in the area (I just moved here), and my Brazilian friend suggested Rivas. I reached out and scheduled a consultation, although I found it unnecessary—balayage is a common technique I’ve done for years. In fact, when I visit my regular stylist out of state, he listens to what I want and gets started the same day. When I arrived at Rivas’ salon—located above a dollar store in Rockville—he greeted me warmly at first. But things quickly took a turn. He began explaining how his balayage technique takes several hours, which I found excessive. I made the mistake of being honest and mentioned that I was

HE’S SO GOOD! He fixes cheap 😂…just be patient because everyone likes him so book ahead! My hair was looking crazy but he somehow fixed it in no time. He figured out the perfect tone for my skin!!! Don’t waste your money any where else!!!

Riva is the best professional I have met before! He is like a member of family - family master! Every time after Riva I am happy because I see how is beautiful my hair. He changed my style and I am grateful Riva for this changes in me. I trusted Riva and I will do it forever. He knows what to do with any type of hair and always gives a good advice. I recommend Riva as the best professional of style. I am happy to found Riva for my hair.
