At any given time, AVA Salon and Spa might be occupied by a mix of political figures, celebrities, and locals. This diverse clientele could easily be ascribed to the studio's location on Capitol Hill, just two blocks from the Library of Congress and the filming location of "I'm Just a Bill." The more likely reason, though, rests in the approach of AVA's stylists, skin therapists, and makeup artists.

With careers that have included work for fashion shows, photo shoots, and the big screen, AVA's beauty gurus bring a wealth of experience to each guest. This expertise extends into services such as hairstyling and coloring, facials, mani-pedis, and waxing. The team also uses only high-end product such as Aquage, Dermalogica, and Spa Ritual, which guests can purchase for at-home care.
