A private hair color studio in McLean, Virginia, by colorist Phuong Anh Tran.
Meet Your Colorist
Hello, I’m Phuong Anh.
Welcome to Dye and Tell, a hair color studio in the heart of McLean, Virginia. Formerly a Color Director at Vidal Sassoon, I now welcome clients to my own private studio, where I do what I love most: creating beautiful, personalized hair color.
With nearly three decades of experience, I have built my career around precision, creativity, and understanding each client’s individual needs. I believe beautiful color should enhance your natural features, complement your lifestyle, and leave you feeling confident.
At Dye and Tell, my focus is on providing exceptional color services in a comfortable, welcoming, and personal environment. Whether you’re looking to refresh your existing color, cover grays, add dimension, or explore something completely new, every appointment begins with a thoughtful consultation.
I’m incredibly grateful for the relationships I’ve built with my clients over the years, and I look forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces to my studio.
