At…read morefirst, I was confused as to why this new woman was on the phone screaming on the phone and being unprofessional. It was then that I learned that her and her husband bought the salon. 2nd time I came she told me that they weren't accepting loyalty cards granted mine was already half way punched. The new owner told me, I can finish my loyalty card and pay $25 to get my hair done mind you I was paying $20 to get my hair done. The third encounter with her she's still on the phone yelling at someone, then her son is there so she's screaming even more. When it comes time to pay, she told me I have to pay $30 to get my hair done and that I can't use my loyalty card even though I have more punches left. As much as I love my beautician and have been going to her for over 15 years, I'm going to another place. This new owner is insensitive, and I'm pretty sure she's going to lose more customers. Still upset that the original owners couldn't say anything because I was so loyal to them smh. This place deserves 0 stars. Customer service went all the way down; prices went all the way up!!!

I've been going to this salon off and on for years. It isn't my "go to" salon, but since it it…read moreclose proximity to my house it has been a good fall back when I am pressed for a wash and set and don't have time to travel. I've had decent experiences with them in general. My hair texture is easy to manage (3b-c). It's natural and while I have a lot, it doesn't require a lot to get straight. So a wash and set is all I need. The reason for this negative review is that I recently started taking my 6 year old daughter for blowouts. She has been about 3 times. Her hair texture is considerably more course than mine (4a). It is (or should I say 'was') thick and beautiful. Her Afro-puffs were perfect, enviable, huge round puffs of cotton. Not any more. During the last visit, both my daughter and I came for blowouts. The salon was nearly empty so we had different stylists. The stylist who tended to my daughter was feeling her hair and simultaneously asking "are you gonna be a good girl today?" Not sure what she was talking about I piped in, "she is always a good girl." The stylist said, "I just meant while I blow it, it gets hot." I said, "Again, she always is a good girl, she really enjoys getting her hair straightened so she is a good sport about the process." They went to the shampoo bowl. I was already past that point and getting rollers in my hair and about to go under the dryer. So I didn't observe my daughter's shampoo process. I regret that now. My daughter's hair turned out great. Straighter than ever. Definitely more straight than when I do it at home. I drummed it up to the professionals being professional. I didn't wash her hair for 2 weeks (judge me, it's a thing :)) and my daughter's hair never reverted. 6 year old girl, doing 6 year old play, sweat and all and there was barely any curly edges. Peculiar? Yes... but I didn't think too much about it. It wasn't until I washed her hair that I realized that something was really wrong. 3 shampoos. And her hair would not curl. Stringy, straight hairs all over her head. 6 years of loving up on each of her curls, I know exactly what her hair is like, and...like that... it was changed! I did a Deep conditioning treatment. And her hair still wouldn't curl the way it previously did. Soft, puffy, fluffy, hair gone. And her hair had this awful chemical smell to it. 3 shampoos and a deep conditioning treatment and this weird smell clung to her hair. I was convinced at that point that the salon did something irreversible to her hair. I went to the salon and explained my concerns to the same ladies in the shop I have always seen and talked to every time I have visited, but now they didn't understand my English. So they called a woman who supposedly owned the salon and spoke better English, who expectedly denied any wrongdoing. It's heartbreaking really. So beware. This business is up to funny business. I definitely will never return. I'll be using all the natural hair care tips I've gained over the years to try and repair the damage done to my daughter's continually breaking hair. And telling EVERYONE I know about our experience.

I suspect they…read moreslipped some sort of keratin or texture releasing product because every time I wash my hair it smells like chemicals. The pictures show my hair texture (4c) before Johanny, and my first wash (about three weeks after) being serviced by them . Also, there's a video that shows my call-log with the owner (I had a couple questions prior to visiting) to serve as proof I went to them since they have a habit of claiming that everyone who leaves a 'bad' review were never serviced by them or is an ex-employee. Beware if you have afro-textured hair and decide to come here. You might have to do a big chop like me! I hope in the future they're more inclusive for all hair types.

Jose, the gentleman who answered the phone was very professional and courteous when we spoke. He gave me exact pricing and let me know in advance that it would cost more if my hair was extra long. We agreed on a time I would arrive at the salon and the next day when I did, I was greeted by a lovely woman, who pronounced my name and went to working on my hair right away. I was a bit concerned because I was wondering if she'd be able to handle my hair in all its thickness and kinky coiliness and she did, with the quickness. I was very surprised by how she was able to wash, condition, roller set, and blow dry my hair so fast. When it was time for the trim, I was confident that she'd finish the job right because she made sure to tell me what my hair was looking like and what needed to be done before proceeding. She even had Jose explain it to me more thoroughly in English. One of the things I appreciated about the salon besides the excellent customer service, the actual great service, and the cost was that the place felt comfortable. I was greeted and I felt welcomed and warm while at the shop. It felt like the old school shops where everyone says hello and is pleasant. I highly recommend this place, as they offer great options and perks that come with getting your hair done. I walked out looking like "who's that girl" and was grinning from ear to ear. Thank you to the salon.

The salon had a good amount of customers in there so make sure you set aside a few extra hours. I do not remember the names of the 2 assistants ( I really wish I wrote it down).

Whatever she used to wash my hair left my scalp feeling cool and refreshed. Ms. Marcia styled my natural hair ( no perm) into coils. Today is Friday and my coils still look fresh and I've been getting none stop compliments. This shop is conveniently located right by the Cross island highway- 10 minutes from sunrise highway and it is not overpriced.

I have to say that I am super satisfied with my experience at the salon and the results of my hair. As a life long natural girl that has experienced a tragic heat damage episode in the past, I thought it was important to go to salon that focuses on treating and maintaining healthy hair. This is it! I am an extremely "tender-headed" individual but as an adult I've learned to check myself and keep the sounds of my whimpers to myself. I made the tiniest noise when the stylist washing my hair started to detangle and she stopped and asked me if I was tender headed and resumed in the most gentle manner possible. She detangled my hair with softer hands than my own mother! I immediately felt like Judas betraying Jesus after that thought but you have to give credit where credit is due! I can't wait to come back! #newhairwhodis
