Donâ€™t go to this place especially if you have natural hair. Tried this place 4 times. Twice I used their products. Twice I used my own. Completely ruined my curls. My hair broke off in chunks. They use extremely high heat in the hood dryers and blow dryers. I didnâ€™t notice the damage right away. The last time I went my hair had a heavy chemical smell so I quickly rewashed my hair and noticed the damage and changes to my curl pattern. My hair wouldnâ€™t curl. I was done after that. I went back to my old pricey hair dresser and asked about the smell and breakage. She stated aside from my hair appearing as though itâ€™s been improperly relaxed, they may be closing the back of their blow dryers to dry hair faster. This explanation makes sense thinking back to the tons of smoke coming from their blow dryers. Iâ€™ve never seen this at my current, or previous, salons. I do believe they mix relaxer into their products. This should be a concern to even those with relaxers. Constant exposure to chemicals, AND without neutralizing, is horrible for anyoneâ€™s hair. Not worth the cheap price. I had been natural for 8 years. They ruined it in 4 visits. Itâ€™s a complete violation. Pay extra money elsewhere if you care about your hair. The cheap route is very costly.

This is a terrible place to come if you're black with natural 4c hair.The staff is already extremely rude regardless but they're especially rude to people with this hair texture.All I wanted was to blow out my hair for a trim.Although, their price was right.I have come to learn that you get what you pay for as their service was most definitely WRONG! It is 2018 , everyone knows you never ever detangle natural hair dry.Save yourself the hair loss and shell out the extra cash.

Iâ€™ve been faithfully going to this place for about three years. However, I will not be returning. Two of their best hairstylist recently left and itâ€™s not the same. Went to get a doobie and one of the new hairstylist struggled with my hair because she said it was too thin to wrap. In addition, she said she couldnâ€™t blow out a small area of my hair that didnâ€™t fully from being under the dryer. Complaining that she was not suppose to do a blow out, in which I was not asking for. If you are a hairstylist you should be able to do any type of hair and go out your way to make the customer happy. I was so upset I ended up leaving without a doobie. If you do go, have Columbia wash your hair, sheâ€™s the best!!!
