Been going here for the past few months and my hair is doing AMAZING! It's growing back to where it was pre-pandemic. The stylists here are knowledgeable about their craft and always willing to share valuable information with their clients to teach us how to properly care for our hair. Also the fact that a wash is INCLUDED with braid service is CLUTCH. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 Love the folks, the vibe, and the services here ❤️❤️❤️
I was charged $135 for an $85 service that included the shampoo, deep condition, blow-out/trim & cornrow. The hairstylist I saw kept adding services(blowout & trim) that I explicitly never asked for in our phone call prior to the appointment. I knew how much the service was and wanted to see if the hairstylist was going to take advantage of me being a new client and overcharge me. And she did. The website has the prices listed and I referred to that prior to coming in today. I am disappointed and will not be returning to a salon that takes advantage of its clients.
Called to make an appointment. Was referred to Brie who did not respond to my text. I messaged the owner to see if she could assist and nothing as well. Getting your hair done in the area is such a hassle I need to know to plan my day and holding me up by not answering is unprofessional.
I attempt to give fair and balanced reviews so I will present both sides of my experience The good: - The appointment started on time and was efficient - The hair came out fine The bad: Just about everything else - When I got to the appointment I explained to the stylist Bre that I have scalp issues and a medicated shampoo that my dermatologist prescribed to be applied to my scalp but not drawn through the hair because it is very drying. She seemed agreeable but then proceeded to put the shampoo all over my hair stating that she’s seen the shampoo before and “that’s the procedure for all my other clients”. What is done for other clients in this regard is irrelevant. My doctor gave instruction and if the stylist did not want to do that, she should have been up front that she didn't want to. Mind you, she never looked closely at my scalp but refused to follow the directions of someone who had. - At the end of the appointment, she attempted to raise the price stating that what was on the website “is the base price”. My hair is about 6-7 inches long and did not require extensive detangling. The website says NOTHING of a base price with possible increases. - The absolute worst part of this appointment was how much the poor communication skills carried through from beginning to end. So at the end, I get told that ONLY CASHAPP or CASH is accepted. This is NOT on the Vagaro website where I did my booking (which states credit cards are accepted). This was NOT mentioned when I texted with Bre prior to the appointment. This is NOT mentioned on the front door of the salon (which has credit card decals on it). I offered to pay by Venmo, Paypal or Zelle as I do not have Cashapp and was not going to download it for this purpose. I would have happily paid cash if I was told about this beforehand. She said she would accept a check so I went home to get the check. Upon my return, she tells me that she really wanted cash because she did not know when she would go to the bank. At this point I was completely irritated and done. I told her I was absolutely not going to an ATM in the dark nor paying ATM fees due to this business’s poor communication skills. The claim was that they stopped taking credit cards and have not updated the website “because of the pandemic”. IT’s **2023**. The pandemic started in **2020**. To say that’s the reason for the lack of update is absolutely ridiculous. - I really wanted to like this salon but the chances of me returning are slim to none.
Great place to get loc maintenance and starters. I came here after another stylist messed up my hair. I was grateful to have found this shop, but it can get pricey depending on service.
