Hey Friend,
I hope this note finds you well. I am so grateful for your trust and support over the years and for being part of my journey as I’ve worked to build a welcoming space where you can relax and feel your best.
I’m excited to share that beginning Monday, November 17, I will officially be working from Rosewood Salon Co. in Great Falls, VA.
As many of you know, I’ve done my best to keep my suite running as a solo stylist. Unfortunately, with the rising costs of running a business, a scheduled rent increase in the next few weeks, and my own personal needs, it has become increasingly difficult to sustain on my own. After a lot of thought and prayer, I realized that I needed to make a change that would allow me to continue providing you with the same quality of care, while also supporting my personal well-being.
This move to Rosewood will allow me to focus on what I love most, caring for you and your hair, while also finding a healthier balance as I plan for my future as a stylist, a wife, and a hopeful mother. I’m deeply thankful for your love, support, and flexibility as I continue to grow and adapt both personally and professionally.
I have already started speaking with many of you about this move in person, and I am happy to share that so many of you are excited about the change and looking forward to seeing the new space.
🌟About Rosewood Salon Co.🌟
Rosewood Salon Co. is a beautiful, modern salon built around creativity, collaboration, and an elevated guest experience. Every stylist at Rosewood operates independently but with the shared support of a talented, professional team. The environment is calm, welcoming, and designed with both stylists and clients in mind, offering a more polished experience without losing the personal touch you are used to with me.
It is conveniently located at 1144 Walker Rd D, Great Falls, VA, 22066, with easy parking right out front and quick highway access: about 30 minutes from Alexandria, National Harbor, and Arlington, 40 minutes from DC, and just 15 minutes from Reston Town Center.
🌟What This Means for You🌟
All existing appointments scheduled after November 16 will be automatically moved to the Rosewood booking system.
Any recurring appointments will also transfer unless you let me know your current time no longer works.
Any current packages will be canceled since Rosewood does not offer package pricing. I will personally review any unused services with you.
I will begin transferring appointments and contact information to the new system over the next few weeks, but you can continue using my current GlossGenius booking link until November 15 for any changes or bookings in the meantime.
You do not need to take any action unless you would like to book additional appointments or adjust your existing schedule.

🌟Pricing and Gratuity🌟
Rosewood Salon Co. uses an hourly pricing model that is simple and transparent.
My current hourly rate of $110 will remain the same until further notice.
Services are billed by the hour, and anything over 30 minutes counts as a full hour.
The salon is gratuity-free, meaning tips are neither expected nor accepted. The price you see is the final cost of your service.
🌟Holiday Hair Countdown🌟
The busy season is here! To help you plan ahead:
🦃5 weeks until Thanksgiving (week of 11/24)
🎄8 weeks until Christmas (week of 12/22)
🥳9 weeks until New Year’s Eve (week of 12/29)
To make sure your hair is holiday-ready, I recommend scheduling your color services 2 to 3 weeks before your event and styling appointments the week of your event. Holiday appointments always fill up quickly.
🌟Common Questions🌟
Will your services or approach change?
No. The same care, expertise, and personalized approach you have always received will continue. The move simply gives me the support I need to keep doing what I love at a higher level.
What if I can’t travel to Great Falls?
I completely understand that the new location might not be convenient for everyone. If that is the case, I will miss seeing you in my chair, but I will happily refer you to a trusted stylist closer to home who will take great care of you.
I know that change can sometimes feel like a lot, but my goal is to make this as seamless and stress-free as possible for you. I will continue to keep you informed and am always here to answer any questions you may have.
Thank you again for your love, support, and adaptability through every season of my journey. I am truly excited to welcome you to my new salon home just in time for the holidays.
With Love and Gratitude,
Sydney “SydneyGabrielle” Hughes
