    My original hair with Virgin growth and old highlights at the bottom
    Anita F.

    Requested a look and provided a sample photo. (Instead attached photos show what I got) Initially Lexi did say "let's look at the highlights and if you're not happy, we can tone them down." Not once did she say that my photo was Out of reach. NevI told her I want highlights noticeable for sure. Then Lexi stated "oh absolutely you're gonna definitely see that pop ."Once shampooed, blow dried, it was immediately obvious that my hair was not going to look even slightly close to the photo. Cora and Lexi insisted that it was beautiful, stunning, perfect, etc. etc.. L'Oreal asked what's going on. I explained the look is too dark and did not look like the photo at all. Then I noticed copper mark stain on my hair, Cora said "oh that's an easy fix" and Lexi mixed some color and try to bring the copper stain on my hair down. The owner, L'Oreal also tried to tell me that the orange /copper stain was natural. The mark was not natural. There was a hiccup somewhere in the process, but Lexi did not take ownership. At the end of the day, I wanted my hair repaired. I wanted highlights something at least slightly close to the photo I showed them. The day of my appointment, was going on three hours and I was rushed to pay my invoice and close out my tab before the services were complete. I thought that was odd, I had never done this in the past. It was very unprofessional, but in good faith I paid a total of $358.24 plus a $75 tip which was 20% of the total. Once Lexi completed my hair, she was frustrated because I felt it was still too dark and stated "I don't think you know what you want." Next morning when I woke up, I knew it was still too dark and if it was going to lighten it should've already in a day or two. So I called about 10 in the morning and spoke to the receptionist. I explained my situation and she immediately accommodate me with another appointment at 3:30 with Kat since Lexi was not scheduled to be there on Wednesday. Well when I came in Kat asked what was wrong and I was very specific as to what had happened step-by-step the day before. She gave me the impression that she understood the assignment and continued her best to correct the issue. She even went as far as doing a test foil to see just how light my hair would lighten without damage. Once that was completed, L'Oreal came out and this whole session begin. L'Oreal questioned everything that her stylist was doing and asked me to move to a different station because someone else was going to take care of me. This third stylist, I believe her name was Ashley had no idea what was actually happening. Ashley was very soft spoken, professional, demonstrated empathy throughout our whole interaction. Ashley asked me to please show her the initial photo that I had presented yesterday. I showed it to her and she explained what the necessary process would be. L'Oréal once again comes out gives Ashley a liability contract for me to sign and another invoice for an additional $300+ to correct their mistake. Please keep in mind. I had already paid the day before a total of $358.24 plus a $75 tip. This included $160 for the partial highlight, Gloss $55 which I never approved. Upon my arrival, the day of my appointment Lexi briefly mentioned a gloss and asked if I had ever had that procedure done. I clearly stated no and don't need it because 90%!of the time I wear my hair curly. No more was said about the gloss until I saw $55.00 on my invoice. I also paid $100 for women's haircut and you will see my hair before and after that does not look like $100 haircut to me. I also saw another charge that was labeled Vish for $43.24. From what I have observed, they have lots of good ratings although it's those rare few that are dismissed and are unnoticed . Please take note and be aware... Every appointment should be explained in detail as to what your expectations are, and by the stall is what is possible on their part. Additional services/product charges should be mentioned and explained before the service. A stylist time is valuable and so is yours just as valuable you are paying them for their time to do the service. Don't ever let anyone rush you and especially to pay and close out your tab before the process is complete I refused to sign the liability documents or pay the additional invoice. I never asked for a refund for my initial appointment. I was just hoping that the business would have taken accountability and make it right. The integrity of this business was definitely tested on July 15, 2025. L'Oreal (owner) do better

    This salon is amazing please come see Kat she's an amazing hair stylist. I've been her client for 6yrs she I'd super friendly.

    I recently went to Tico for a balayage appointment, and it was an absolute nightmare. I can't believe the mess she made of my hair, and I feel compelled to share my experience to warn others. The color was nothing like what I had asked for at all. Not only was the color terrible, but the application was also extremely sloppy. Save yourself the distress and find a competent and professional stylist elsewhere. DISASTER! We both know the truth (: how do you know? I will add picture of my hair color thats done by your hair stylist! Why would I want correction to my hair same week when its already been damaged and bleached! Yes, I have been very lucky before not to mention this is my first time posting bad reviews!

    We went in today to get a cut for our son. Kelsey cut most of his hair off even though we provided a picture to her as a guide. No one at the salon acknowledge the poorly executed cut. If a hairstylist cannot achieve the request the correct thing to do is defer to someone else or tell the client that the cut cannot be completed. Do not make up the cut as you go. Terrible!

    This is what I asked for

    EDITED from 1 to 4 stars: The owner, Mrs. Julia, personally…read morecalled to apologize and refunded me $30 to help rectify the situation. I was informed that the hairdressers are contracted out. Therefore, I would recommend going over pricing before sitting in a chair so you're not surprised when it's time to pay for services. I really appreciate Mrs. Julia's sincerity and customer service. ------------------- I went to this salon based off of reviews and service prices listed online. The establishment was nice and clean on the inside, there were only two hairdressers working with the rest of the chairs sitting empty. The original hairdresser I had booked with had a migraine and called out, so I was rescheduled with Helen. She cut my both children's hair. Both of my girls had trims only - maybe an inch a piece on dry, clean hair. That's it. No wash, no dry, no curl or style. Just trims. Based off the pricing online, I was expecting to pay maybe $20 per child (online said kids cuts are $13 and up). They charged me $100! For two trims! When I asked the front desk receptionist about the high prices, she verified with me that they had not received any additional services that would make the price increase that much, stated that she didn't believe the website had been updated in a while & that basically the hairdresser set those prices and there was nothing she could do about it. She was sweet and kept apologizing but I highly recommend you take your business elsewhere. The prices are outrageous and it's basically a "well, that's just how it is" attitude. I expect more out of a Sugar Land business. Very disappointed.

    I had my make-up done and the young lady did an amazing job!! Definitely going back and I recommend…read moregoing here!!

    I don't typically leave negative reviews unless I genuinely feel the experience warrants one…read more This review is a serious warning to anyone with African-American hair, African kinky hair, coily hair, or highly textured curly hair: please think twice before booking services here. Based on my experience, this salon clearly does not have the knowledge, technique, or experience necessary to properly work with these hair textures. I booked two appointments for my daughters at Blo Blow Dry Bar in Sugar Land, Texas for basic wash-and-blowout services. Before booking, I clearly noted in the appointment comments that my daughters have African kinky/coily hair textures. Prior to the appointment, the salon called and asked whether I could come earlier because they were unsure if the stylists would be able to complete the service within the scheduled timeframe due to my daughters' hair texture. Although I explained that I work until 5 PM, I still rearranged my schedule and came earlier so they could assess my daughters' hair beforehand. When we arrived, I again specifically asked whether the stylists had experience working with African textured hair. One stylist even asked to touch my daughter's hair to feel the texture before beginning. After examining their hair, I was told they may need to charge additional fees for extended styling time, including flat ironing and curling. I clarified multiple times that I was NOT requesting styling, curls, or flat ironing because my daughters were getting braids a couple of days later. I only requested a simple wash-and-blow-dry service. The stylist then reassured me that, since we only needed wash-and-blow-dry services, extended timing likely would not be necessary. I arrived at approximately 5:05 PM. My first daughter was taken back around 5:15 PM, and my second daughter approximately 10-15 minutes later. Both services were completed within less than 45 minutes before the discussion about additional charges came up. At no point was I clearly informed that additional charges would definitely apply. I was only told they would "let me know" if extra time became necessary. After the appointments were completed, I was unexpectedly charged an additional $15 per child for "extended blow drying." The final results absolutely did not reflect the price charged. For approximately $70 per child for a basic wash-and-blow-dry service that lasted barely 45 minutes, I expected significantly better results and far more experience handling textured hair. What made the experience even more disappointing was how uncomfortable and demeaning the overall interaction felt. We regularly visit other salons, including Cherry Blow Dry Bar, and have never experienced this level of discomfort or lack of professionalism regarding our hair texture. At one point, after seeing the final results, I genuinely asked the stylist whether she was proud of the work completed because the outcome did not reflect the pricing, the added fees, or the level of service we were promised. See attached photos of what approximately $70 per child looked like after a basic wash-and-blow-dry appointment. The photos speak for themselves. I also have time-stamped iPhone photos confirming both my visit and the condition of my daughters' hair immediately after the service, before anyone attempts to dispute that we were there. My issue is not simply the additional charge. It is the lack of transparency, the disappointing results, and the feeling that my concerns were not taken seriously despite communicating everything clearly upfront before the appointment. If a salon is not experienced with textured African hair, it is completely acceptable to say so honestly before accepting appointments, charging families additional fees, and delivering subpar results. Customers deserve transparency, professionalism, honesty, and respectful treatment.
