Lately I've been blessed by the hair Gods. Really blessed. I'm enjoying a beautiful relationship…read morewith a Brooklyn shop and now I've started this flirt thingy going with Gems. The shop is trendy. Soft peach colored walls. Silver and black finishings and pine colored wood floors and counters. At the time of my visit there were two stylists at work but I saw other stations. Shall we begin? The lady that shampooed my hair has magic fingers! She's the hair RN to hair doctor Rachelle (better know as Ray who I'll get to soon). My scalp was massaged within inches of me falling into a deep slumber. After all this massaging she asked if that was sufficient or if I wanted more? Wow! More please. Dreamland...... After she was finished (hair doctor) Ray took over. Ray detangled my hair and I had to take a peek in the mirror to see if that was really what she was doing because never a tug did I feel. Gentle hands. She then blow dried and styled. When she was finished she wrapped my hair and it was smooth and silky ensuring that when I let it down I'll have that perfect Rapunzel flow. There was quiet chatter between clients and staff and the regulars (including this newbie) we all looked really relaxed. My only discomfort was the music could have been a little softer especially as their telly was running too. And Ray only put it on after I sat down so I'm thinking she sized me up...just wrongfully. Lol. Maybe they can decide on telly or radio and go with that ONE unless a client requests other. I'm sure they can and do attend to all types of hair but on my visit there was only an African American clientele, and mostly us naturals, 3s and 4Bs and Cs hair type. Overall good experince and my hair stylist search for my two areas Brooklyn and Valley Stream is now complete. I'm home. Oh, I was informed that it's owned by a Trini. The End.

This review is really long overdue. I had it saved as a draft for some months now but I figured now…read moreis the time, people need to know. I found this salon on Yelp and it was convenient to get to. I had natural hair and I was coming here cause I didn't know how to wash it without getting frustrated. My stylist did a really good job in regards to washing and detangling, but being natural some things I didn't agree with but I kept going back. So I started getting twist outs and she did a really good job with that as well. It was when I started to want different styles I notice my styles never looked like the picture I showed. My hair was cute but just not what I wanted. The other ladies who work in the shop are cool and funny and all down to earth. The facility is very clean and the environment is very welcoming.

They're all very nice here. They're punctual and very professional in that regard. I like that! BUT…read moreif you have natural hair, DO NOT come here. I'm so bothered because I was told they specialize in natural hair and that they use expensive salon quality shampoo/conditioner, specifically Mizani when I called to inquire before coming in. They do not really know how to do natural hair and they use cheap, no name products in your hair. My hair was shampooed a whopping FOUR times, scrubbed like a rug, barely deep conditioned, and silked with NO HEAT PROTECTANT. They have an expertise in perming hair and handling permed hair. By the time I left, my natural hair [which had been cut by my normal natural hair stylist just two weeks ago] had never felt so dry, and it's taken two days to get my ends back to feeling like they were healthy.

They didn't take my name or number. Showed up today about 10 minutes before my appointment and the salon was empty. There was one employee sitting in a chair in the entire salon and she asked if she could help me and I told her I had an appointment. She told me she had to call "her". They had a conversation in Spanish and then she brings the phone over and shows me a message translated in English saying she wasn't feeling well and if I could come back tomorrow at the same time. Sorry 3 strikes and you are out!! Very disappointed especially after taking time off of work to do this. Not professional at all.

PROS: no overbookings, no long waits, high end hair products, knowlegable, super-friendly and affordable. CONS: Only open Weds - Saturday.

I showed Latyoa the style I wished to achieve and I will say she did not disappoint. Just a backdrop prior, I had my hair previously in braids and it was gray and tight. Sista's 'know what I means. Anyway, the shop ran like a well-oiled machine, Latyoa prep and relaxed and the other young lady: please forgive me I forgot her name washed /colored and engaged me in great conversation throughout the process.

I was extremely nervous because I hadn't had a ponytail since I was 13(maybe younger). I walked in and had a couple of pictures in tow. The stylist available (which I believe is the owner) looked at my pictures and assured me she could achieve the desired style. She was very polite and asked if I would like to make an appointment. We scheduled for the next day. The biggest plus was that she washed my hair!! I'm not sure why it's normal now for salons to not wash your hair, but it's aggravating *rolls eyes*, so naturally I was ecstatic when she ushered me to a wash station. The wash was thorough and the style came out EXACTLY as I wanted it. It was also fairly priced at $40! I'll definitely be back!

The owner said wait until she's done. 3days later my daughter's hair began to unravel, her own hair started showing, became freezy and messy. When I contacted the owner she was rude and refused to answer my original message. I then came to the shop to shop her my daughter's hair, the owner became rude and refused to reimburse us. As this is a normal style for my daughter, this experience with this particular stylist my daughter nearly cried because after sitting for 6 hours at this establishment, her hair wasn't done by someone who knew how to do a proper job. We paid $160 for the style, the owner was very unprofessional, took our money and refused to compromise for a reimbursement.
