Salon Roi is a beautifully restored four story historic townhouse, within walking distance of two major Washington hotels (Omni Shorham and Marriot Wardman Park). The Salon is near the intersection of Calvert Street and Connecticut Avenue in Northwest Washington’s WoodleyPark (two blocks from the Washington National Zoo) and one second from the Woodley Park Zoo/Adams Morgan metro station.

Salon Roi is known to many Washingtonians as the site of the mural of legendary film star Marilyn Monroe, which graces the upper levels of the Salon’s southern exterior wall and was created by artist John Bailey in 1980 for Mr. Roi Barnard’s 40th birthday. The mural has become something of Washington landmark, reproduced in paintings, T-shirts, calendars and postcards. It is even a stop on the route of the Old Towne Trolley, a roving tour bus. Salon Roi was the first full-service unisex salon in Washington, and has remained at its original location since 1968. In 1981, Salon Roi was named “Best Salon” by Washingtonian Magazine. In subsequent years, Salon Roi has continued to grow, retain existing clients, and attract new clients of all ages.  At Salon Roi our mission is to create an environment where your every need is anticipated, a place where you feel so welcome that you may never want to leave. Our warm interior adds to this atmosphere.

While here, enjoy a unique collection of Marilyn Monroe memorabilia throughout the salon and spa. Warm yourself in winter time by our  fireplace with a hot tea or coffee by your side. We offer exceptional hair and spa services that leave you feeling satisfied, pampered, and recharged. Our expert stylists can provide any hair style and color you want and our hair extension service can add instant creativity and glamour to your style. The spa also offers massages, manicures, pedicures, facials, waxing, lash extensions, makeup artistry, and permanent makeup.
