Love this place! It's my little secret salon. Virginia knows hair, I came in with an idea and she knew exactly what to do and what would look good on me. All of the staff are warm and every time I'm in I'm so entertained by all of the conversation.

Second appointment here and I got a balayage and cut. I am extremely happy with the job Minya did! She understood exactly what I wanted and executed it perfectly. I can't wait to come back!

I was in and out within 45 minutes. Minya was incredibly thorough and made sure my hair was perfect before I left! The price was very reasonable, perfect for a broke grad student. I will be back!

Gave it 5 because I can't give it 10! The service here is amazing. I told Virginia that I had gotten a bad hair cut and I wanted to fix and grow out my hair. She did such an amazing job making sure I was happy with the result. I could tell from the beginning that I was going to love it by how gentle she was. Will definitely be coming back!

Wow! This is the first time I left a salon happy with the cut, color, AND style! They are a fantastic family-owned salon. My color came out unique: dark with a touch of violet. My bangs are perfect and I have volume I never knew was possible. Even after washing, it still looks good! I can style it myself but will go back on special occasions for a blow-out.

I pass by Studio 1622 fairly often and finally tried it out for myself. My last barber shop experience was less than satisfactory and left high sides with no fade into a longer top. Myna was able to take me as a walk-in on a weekday afternoon, correct my fade, and it only cost $15. She talked through each decision with me and left me with a haircut that I actually wanted to show off. I'll definitely be coming back

I had been looking for a salon in Baltimore for months and wanted to choose a place that would do a good job at a reasonable price and kept me safe during the pandemic. I booked an appointment the same day I called, which was great because it was short notice. Virginia greeted me and shampooed my hair, which felt absolutely amazing. Then Euthoxia cut my hair. I showed her the so pictures of a length I liked and she immediately got to work and it was absolutely perfect when she finished, exactly what I wanted and I barely even told her what I had in mind! I told her I had an anniversary date that night, so she curled my hair and made it look amazing. The ladies were all so friendly and talkative, it made me feel very comfortable.
I will absolutely be making this my go to salon in the city and I've been recommending it to friends since my appointment!Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Jerry C.Baltimore, MD0482Apr 27, 2023
I came upon Studio 1622 after experiencing terrible haircuts at my neighborhood barbershops. I (a man) have thick hair that doesn't necessarily grow "down" when it gets longer, it grows "out". On top, it's fine; I wear my hair combed back and have no problems with the length. But on the sides the hair grows out and takes on a shape of it's own. So my request at both of the local barbershops was "just leave the top alone, and taper the sides down such that it gets shorter the closer it gets to my ears/neck." Pretty straightforward. Both previous barbers butchered the sides. The end result looked like they put a bowl on my head. So, I read some good reviews about Studio 1622, and called and made an appointment. While it's not extremely difficult to find the Salon, it's not particularly easy either. But using Google maps and my iPhone direction guidance, I made it there without any problem. There is available parking on the street.
My appointment was with Minya, the manager. I briefly told her about my most recent disasters with other barbers and, again, told her to leave the top alone and taper it down the sides and back. She responded "got it" and I sat back to watch. She used scissors and a comb to work on the top of the sides and back, and I could quickly see her expertise. She worked quickly but was getting excellent results. I was immediately impressed. She asked a couple of times mid-cut how it was looking, and all I could say was "great" and "perfect." She finished the lower sides and back with a comb-attached shaver - again perfect.
When I had called to make the appointment, I knew the price would be $25, and that it would include a shampoo. When Minya had finished, I walked over to the shampoo station and enjoyed a nice shampoo. The woman washing my hair asked it I wanted "products", and I said "yes", assuming they would cost extra. After she finished I went back to Minya to blow dry and style my hair, again with me responding "yes" when asked if I wanted some "product." When all was done I went to pay and was told $25. Unbelievable! I gave them a generous tip. Studio 1622 Salon is now my firm choice as my go to Haircut destination. You can't go wrong with them.
The Salon is not super fancy, but rather nice, clean, and comfortable. Everyone is friendly. They do accept walk-ins, but making an appointment, for me, is the way to go. I highly recommend this place.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Matthew D.Baltimore, MD19156650Apr 5, 2021
After a long, exhaustive search, trying to find a barbar shop that does men's hair in Baltimore, I came across this salon. I am new to Baltimore, so I am still trying to find my way around and find my local businesses. Apparently, at least right now, because of Covid, all hair salons require an appointment. Most seemed to be fully booked if you call the day of. These folks were kind enough to fit me in same day. Their pricing was reasonable (everything costs more in Baltimore, but they were pretty good).
It was nice to get my hair cut, as it was getting long. This is the first haircut I have gotten in the US since Covid. I usually get my haircut in Medellin or Cali, and if I cannot get there, I sometimes just shave it off. I showed them a picture of how I like it done, and I think they did their best. I think this salon caters mostly to women, but I deseparately needed a cut. I have added pictures of my hair afterwards. I am just unsure why the sharp lines on the back of the neck and would have preferred more tapering. I am not good at explaing this, so probably partially my fault. I usually show a picture and hope for the best when I am in the US.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Megan S.Peoria, AZ282Jan 5, 2021
Hi everyone!
I am not one to usually write reviews, but I know how helpful they can be of recent. I have never been one to regularly get my hair done (one time a year or longer) and that may have just changed.
It had been over a year since my last hair cut/style and yesterday I was blown away by how great Virginia was. She was able to fit me in the same day for an appointment and knew exactly what I was looking for in the style. I have not been able to stop playing with and looking at my new natural perm with lowlights. She was the one who recommended the low lights, knowing that it would look better in my hair than what I had thought when I walked in. I look like a completely different person! She was beyond knowledgeable and helped me with how to care for my new hair.
I can not recommend this salon enough! My hair is now healthy, bouncy, layered, beautiful, and perfectly me. A wonderful place that is clean and cute on the inside. I will definitely be going back to see Virginia when I need to get my next perm and color!
If you trying to make a decision on a hair salon to make an appointment with. Don't look anywhere else!
Attached you can see a picture of my hair from Christmas Day, and a funny picture from yesterday after the appointment. The volume and texture are astounding!

This is my second visit to this hair salon; they are consistently good. This time I went for haircut and hair makeover both. I spoke with Myna over the phone before going and she was very thorough. Even when I met her, she listened to what I wanted and suggested me babylights accordingly. I wanted something subtle but noticeable makeover. I am very happy the way it came out. And as usual complete worth for the money you are paying.
They are taking the necessary COVID precautions. Metered parking spaces are available around the salon.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
