Now I had to cut all my hair off and start over due to her unprofessionalism.

Once I arrived, the stylist started single knotless braids, which is not what I asked for or agreed to. I was told either to take it down or leave with it. Since I had already taken my hair down for a different occasion and needed my hair done, I felt pressured to leave with a style I did not want. Only $10 was taken off the service, which was very disappointing.

Warning: Scam Alert!…read more I was the victim of a Zelle scam perpetrated by Mame Sow, the operator of Mame African Hair Braiding. To reserve an appointment, Mame requires a deposit, which I have provided once in the past. Recently, Mame requested a $50 Zelle deposit to schedule an appointment, which I sent in good faith. The person Mame had me forward the deposit to is Fanny Noumedon. Mame had promised to send a confirmation of the appointment once she received an SMS from me containing a screenshot of the Zelle transaction. After sending the screenshot in an SMS - I never received the promised appointment confirmation. My credit union and I have both reached out to Mame and Fanny to resolve this issue, but their responses have been disrespectful and unprofessional. They claim they cannot locate my information in the Zelle system, which is their excuse for not returning the funds. I've contacted the Tacoma Police Department about the scam that Mame Sow and Fanny Noumedon are running within the city limits. The police advised me to never send a deposit for hair braiding services, as they cannot intervene in civil disputes. Learn from my experience - do not send these hair braiders any deposits, as you will not receive the service or get your money back from Zelle. **Update Upon seeing my online review, Fanny Noumedon's husband Kokou contacted me and pleaded for me to remove it, offering to repay the money owed if I did so. I refused his bribery attempt, and instead threatened legal action against both him and Fanny. Ultimately, they returned the funds, but my critical review remains published. I advise against providing any deposits to these hair braiders, and I advise against doing business with them.

Yumi is very sweet, attentive, and refreshingly honest about hair care -- she even suggested I could do certain things myself to save money. I really appreciated her advice. She works quickly, does great work, and her prices are very reasonable. Unfortunately, the day I visited, there was a strong smell in the building that made me uncomfortable (possibly an issue with the building itself, not her salon). If it hadn't been for that, I probably would have enjoyed the experience much more.

The color is gorgeous, perfectly blended and the haircut brought everything together. I left feeling refreshed, confident and absolutely in love with my new look. If you're looking for someone who listens, gives honest advice and truly cares about the end result, she's your person. So grateful she was able to fit me in--I'll definitely be back!

She is truly amazing, and I'm so happy with her work that I'm willingly making the hour drive to see her now that she's no longer in Seattle. I originally came to her to fix a bad haircut, and from the first appointment she was thoughtful, precise, and focused on getting my hair healthy and flattering again. Then one day, almost like magic, she gave me the layered haircut I didn't even realize I'd been missing--perfect shape, movement, and exactly right for me. You know a cut is good when a stranger compliments it, and that's exactly what happened. If you've been looking for someone who really understands hair and consistently delivers, Veronica is it.

This is not a problem, but it was an error on her part yet she made me feel like I was the inconvenience. No apology. In person service was also pretty standoffish. The business practice was also was not good. I was going from a long cut to a short cut, have barely wavy hair, and style it straight (have gone short before). She chopped off the majority length of my hair before starting the actual cut, and cut it wet and styled it straight. My hair is straight when wet so there aren't waves to manage and when blow dried it's straight which is what we did. To anyone that is not aware, this is not a traditional curly cut. And common sense might tell you it's not even a non-traditional curly cut. She still charged me for a long haircut and a curly cut. I've tried a real curly haircut before (and determined it wasn't what I like for my hair) and this was not at all the same. I don't know why or how she is classifying this service as a curly cut service. I don't even have thick or coarse enough hair to justify higher pricing. The different prices are on the website but it was unclear that she charges based on where your hair starts even if you don't want an actual long haircut or curly cut. I certainly didn't book that and she didn't communicate otherwise at any point before payment. I could have simply chopped off my own length before going in because that's what she did, and that's what I suggest you do if you still book with her. Honestly, it seemed tacky to me. And unfortunately, the cut itself was terrible. I've had my hair this length before so it's not that, it was just done so badly. She put in a good amount of product and did a lot of blow drying to shape it into something that looked ok in the salon, but it really fell apart after the first wash. I was told it looked like "Dora the Explorer hair" so if that's what you want, this is the place. It's fairly dreadful but at least I didn't get bangs or anything so I can just let it grow out. I preferred to just grow it out rather than have someone that did a bad job with poor customer service try and "fix" it. This was a while back and I posted it originally on google, where the review magically can't be found anymore. Also this is a repost here because somehow the business flagged it and had it taken down.

I made an appointment with Kimberly because I got to see Instagram pics of some of the work that she's done and I felt that she would be a good fit for my particular hair care needs. I was so glad I picked Kimberly! She immediately made me feel at ease as I explained that I only wanted the bare minimum cut to remove my split ends. I spent a long time growing my hair and I wanted to keep it as long as possible. She started off by giving me a thorough scalp massage. It felt so good and really relaxed me. During the styling we were chatting constantly. Kimberly is very friendly and we hit it off like a couple of gal pals. I was very happy with the end result. Kimberly recommended a hair mask that can also work as a conditioner to help me with keeping my hair moisturized I will definitely be coming back to Kimberly on a regular basis to keep my locks in great shape.
