    Randi B.

    This review is regarding Breanna Collins aka LacedbyBree. She works at this Hair Salon. I found LacedbyBree on Instagram where she states she's a "Celebrity Wig Designer" and "The Best in Los Angeles" both statements are extremely misleading. I recently secured her services (May 2021) and based on Instagram page I thought I was going to receive services from a professional, one that takes pride in their craft, and a top notch hair stylist...I most definitely did not!!! She's rude, dismissive, and arrogant. This is my experience with her. She did a sub-par job...extremely shoddy. I gave her every opportunity to rectify the situation, but she did not. I must say there was a couple of red flags in the beginning, but I overlooked them because I know life happens. She was like 30 minutes late to the consultation, she did not give me a written receipt - she sent me a text of balances owed after I gave her $300 deposit on a custom wig. The install date she was an hour late and she didn't apologize. I know these millennials are different, so I just chalked it up...I was at home. Once the install was done, I asked her why the hair was so dark and not the caramel brown color I selected, mind you, the color was from her Instagram page. She replied, it just looks like that in the house, it will show lighter in the sun. I thought that didn't sound right, but I just went with it, because I'm not a professional hair stylist and because I was rushing to get ready to fly out of state for a family members funeral. The next day, the entire back had lifted and you could see the lace all in the front and it was not laying down in the front. Let's not forget I paid her a separate charge to color my supposedly custom wig. I didn't really sleep that night, because I was preparing for my trip and I had to be at LAX at 5:30am. I noticed that she did not bleached the knots as she said was part of the service. It was real obvious the next day in the light. She measured my head for the custom wig, but it's too big...it covers my entire neck. I reached out to her the very next day and she acted like I did something wrong, saying you didn't wrap it right, because she told me to fold a scarf like band and tie it around my parameter and that will help lay it down some more. She just all kind of FOUL. - My color should have been right the day of - My wig should have been completely laid down before you left - My knots should have been bleached - My custom wig should have fitted perfectly to my head - There is no way my hair should have looked the way it looked the very next day I told her I wanted a full lace wig so I can wear it all back and in a ponytail. She gave me a "Backyard Boogie" wig install I paid you $1,000 for a used wig, way too big for my head, not the agreed upon color, no bleached knots. She took my money and did not provide the services that I paid her for. Don't fall for the Hype ~ she doesn't take pride in her work or should I say she didn't with me. I was extremely disappointed with her services!!! Her way of handling customer service was to stop responding to my text messages. I asked her the very next day for a date and time for her to rectify the situation...she never provided a date and I asked her three separate times over a 3-day timeframe. I think she's the type that doesn't certain people hair well and put she can get over on, she just throws some shit together. She act like she gave me a discount or I asked for a discount...NOPE NOT AT ALL. I paid her the prices listed and what she asked for. Please note that everything I am saying here is from my experience with her and my belief. It is all factual and unequivocally truthful!!!

    What I asked for

    I went to the hair shop to get my very first hair cut by Erica. She was highly requested by a few friends of mines and I really like the pictures she posted on her Instagram. Because i wanted a pixie cut, I had to book a consultation according to her website. I was fine with that and booked for 9:30am. I got there on time and I walked in and asked for her and was told she hadn't arrived yet. I then checked my phone to see she messaged me on Instagram she was running behind. So I end up waiting on her for an hour, just to be seen for 5 minutes and sent on my way. I should of known better then but I said she came highly recommended so go for it and she was really nice. The day comes for me to get my hair cut, I get there again on time, 9:30am and when I walked in she was there but she was still doing a weave in another clients hair. I waited 2 hours for her to finish her other clients hair. So now it's 11:30 and she started my hair, she ask me before she started for my inspiration photos again then proceeded to start cutting. She told me that for the color I wanted she would have to bleach my hair and because of that she would leave the perm in for long. Yes, she permed and bleach my hair same day. Then walks in her 12:30 Appointment. So now all I got was a wash and I'm sitting under the dryer and she is taking the weave out of her next client. I sat there for so long even her fellow stylist ask where she go. Now it's 1:30 and it turns out she left and went to get Rally's. Then she starts my color. I asked for an Auburn, burnt orange color. My hair was so damn bright I was almost blonde, I told her I wanted it darker and she puts an orange on it literally a shade higher from what I said. Mind you I showed her the color BEFORE she started. Now here comes her 2:30 appointment. So no there's three of us and she's literally trying to do all of our hair at the same time. Now I asked for a big bang and she then cut all my damn hair off. She cut one sideburn, left the other one. She asked me straight or curly but at this point it didn't matter my hair was a disaster, so I said curls. Needless to say cause I'm sure you got the picture, my hair was a damn mess and i didn't walk out of there until 4:30pm. 7 hours in the shop to be over cut, over processed, over it! I even said I looked crazy well I was in the shop in front of her. Then I went home to make dinner and the entire hairstyle sweated out. $300 wasted! The only reason why I gave her 2 stars is because she was really nice and made me feel comfortable being there but than that I will never be back!

    This is a welcoming salon. I have been a couple of times. Heather creates the most amazing natural styles. I have also observed others getting their hair done and can say they all slay hair. The salon offer an array of styles from braids, press and curls, color, wigs, and everything in between.

    Curls for days!!

    Loving my little short and sassy look. Got a haircut from Marlon and I'm ready to show it off.

    I typically hate going to the hair salon because there has always been a constant in my life: 1. I break my neck to arrive on time/or early to still have to wait an indeterminable amount of time to be seen. 2. I always go home to restyle my hair rather that looks like me pinning it up to a different side or creating a whole new style all together (I'm particular about these things). These constants don't detour me from booking appointments though, I'm fairly used to it by now and accept it as inevitable but I would have to say the end results I received at Dare to Be Notice was something I've never experienced.... My experience is as followed Results: I wanted a Flexi Rod set with my sides braided up to make a faux-hawk or just designed nice if I wanted to wear my hair up. The flexi rod set wasn't 100 percent dry and didn't have much of a hold for my texture hair so in the morning (after I slept with it in a pineapple with a scarf and I used a shower cap) my hair was frizzy and not really defined. It looked like an oily twist out with no bounce. I couldn't really pin it into the Mohawk because it was so greasy so put it up and noticed the braids on the side were poorly designed. Very kidish and resembled something you would get if you were bout to get tracks glued in or sewn in....Over all it wasn't a sustainable hairstyle and didn't last past the night she did it. I got it done Wednesday thinking by Saturday my flexirod set would be bouncy and fluffy like the ones I accomplish but it was just really greasy, flat and not really want I imagined. Time: Arrived at 5:51pm on a Wednesday and left at 11:27pm. It took me and hour and 13 mins to get there from my job in Westwood and took me 31 mins to get home at night back to Woodland Hills. So about 7 hours of my life devoted to a hair style that literally lasted a day... Money: Well it wasn't unreasonable but for the amount of time this hairstyle lasted it was completely not worth it. I was charged extra for the braids (about 110 for the entire style) and was not happy with the results. Customer Service: Dei was my stylist and she was great personality wise. Everyone in the shop is friendly and the conversations were hilarious which made the time go by. I did call Dei the day after to try and tell her my dissatisfaction but ended up leaving a message about how I didn't really like the braids and the flexirod set didn't really last. Wasn't looking for money or for her to redo the style but a recognition of my dissatisfaction would have been nice. I wouldn't return as it was just too much time, distance, and money for a style that literally lasted my drive home. Plus my fiancé hated it (and he usually loves all my quirky styles). On the plus there is plenty of parking on the street and neighborhood

    I am so glad I found this salon! Marlon the owner does my hair and wow it was an excellent experience. Marlon takes time to really get all of the chemicals out of your hair so that you don't burn the next day or have breakage. There is no long wait to get your hair done and when he shampoos your hair he massages right along with it. You almost feel like you're at a spa! I am just so happy. I finally found my home. Thanks Marlon for excellent work.

    My hair touched my second vertebrae and now it doesnt even touch the top of the first vertebrae. I dare not or be notice here again.

    Heavy set Beautician does extension worked behind blonde color low cut slightly bald which was my Beautician said cut her hair n she did. I noticed once I got home to style it that my Beautician actually did as she said. When I stop by to find a barber for my son n she made reference to my hair being cut. Becareful of these Beautician if u dont want wear extension forever....just sayin

    I went to Aveda Vicara in El Segundo last week with really high hopes because I've always had great…read moreexperiences with Aveda salons in the past. Unfortunately, this experience was incredibly disappointing. I showed the first stylist multiple reference photos of what I wanted, but she ended up adding a very dark root color to my already lightened hair, which was the complete opposite of the look I asked for. After expressing my concerns, the salon did have another stylist step in to help correct it, which I appreciated, although I waited nearly two hours in between. The second stylist made me feel much more comfortable and did improve the situation, but I still left unhappy with my hair overall. The correction consisted of using a color remover on the roots and applying toner to the rest of my hair, and I was charged $265 for it. At the end of the day, my hair looked better than what the first stylist did but still nowhere near what I originally asked for or envisioned. I'm leaving this review because I think communication and transparency are incredibly important, especially with color services. What upset me most was not just the outcome, but the way the situation was handled overall. I understand that corrections can take time and effort, but if I was going to be charged $265 for a corrective service after my hair was initially mishandled, that should have been clearly communicated to me beforehand. I truly wanted to love this salon and leave feeling taken care of, but unfortunately I left feeling disappointed, uncomfortable, and unhappy with the overall experience.

    Vicara Salon has become my go-to hair salon in SoCal which says a lot considering I spent YEARS…read moreonly getting my hair cut when I went home to Buffalo, NY. As you can see in my previous review, I had finally taken the plunge and got a local trim after a friend recommended Vicara at The Point in Manhattan Beach and I guess a couple years later, I'm glad I did. The salon is clean, airy, and generally welcoming (depending who's working the front desk) but the free parking at The Point is a bonus in the South Bay. Every visit I've had has been good - from the shampoo to the cut to the blowout. I savor every second because, honestly, I still feel I am in and out a little too quickly for the price. They use Aveda products, which I love, and I've absolutely spent more money than planned on shampoo and conditioner while I'm there. Every stylist I've had has been good - skilled, friendly, and patient. I think I finally have a regular now, though I forgot her name, despite asking her 10,241,029 questions during my last visit. She answered every single one with patience and kindness. I'll definitely be back...though I still plan on getting my holiday trim in Buffalo :)

My experience was deeply disappointing and damaging. Owner's response to this review lacks accountability and honesty. I've had Brazilians in the past and typically the stylist flat irons the formaldehyde into your hair, then washes the chemical out, then re-straightens it. Instead this time, I was sent home without the process properly finished, just after the formaldehyde was flat ironed into my hair. I WAS SENT HOME WITH FORMALDEHYDE STILL ON MY HAIR. It seemed a little weird but I was relying on the stylist to be the expert. I reached out the next day to ask when I should wash it out and Stylist said "Whenever you like". So, unfortunately, I waited until my next hair appointment to wash it which was 2+ weeks later. Stylist expressed shock but seemed unwilling to admit that what he did was not only negligent but demonstrated unawareness. It's typical and standard for black women to get our hair done biweekly with no washes in between. I'm still a little surprised that he would be shocked that after formaldehyde was left on my hair for 2 plus weeks, there would be damage. Not to be funny but it doesn't seem like rocket science. Formaldehyde is dangerous! Via text he asked that I share that I went to another salon for a flat iron twice after seeing him. Again, demonstrating unawareness. He offered a deep conditioning treatment, but I was wary to return. LONG STORY SHORT IF YOU'RE AFRICAN-AMERICAN, I DO NOT RECOMMEND! STYLIST DOES NOT UNDERSTAND BLACK HAIR. PERIOD. Hopefully this can be a lesson learned. I spent $240 to learn the hard way.
