I recommend this for all hair types. This is an international hair salon with representation for…read morevarious ethnicities. My only regret in writing this review is that it will spoil the surprise for you. :-)
The process was as follows:
1. I was immediately whisked away for a oiled scalp massage. I almost fell asleep. It was heavenly. After the oil massage, she used two brushes to brush the oil throughout my hair. That felt heavenly too!
2. I was shampoo'd in a chair that lays flat while it massages my body.
3. During both the shampoo and conditioner - my head was massaged some more. Again, I could barely keep my eyes open.
4. With conditioner in my hair, I was put into a plastic shower cap, then wrapped in cellophane, and then put under dryer for 10 minutes.
5. After conditioner, I was rinsed again in massaging chair.
5. I was blow dried on high heat with a mini brush and rat tooth comb. Sounds crazy, but my hair was super straight in minutes.
6. The next step was very important. She put me under the dyer to let my scalp dry after being blow dried. Yes, she gets it. This is a very important step.
7. She flat ironed each piece straight while being careful not to straighten the ends as much as the roots.
8. I let her trim my hair. :-/. You know I hate this but it was much needed. She didn't ask - I asked her. I couldn't get a beautiful hairdo without allowing a full makeover - including my ends.
9. And lastly, she curled my hair with the steam pod by loreal. I would never have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself. No could hear the steam over my hair. But yet it sealed it and made it straight.
Best total package hair salon experience ever! Merci!
