I wish I could give this place 10 stars! I booked this Saturday (mother's day weekend) and was immediately tended too. Those of you who know me know I'm hard to please and hate waiting My stylist (Novie) took her time and perfectly excited the vision I had for my Messy Boho Locs. Queen Glamour and the glamour team are the best! My locs are light, flexible and slayed. Hint hint they all trained under the shop owner, everyone's work is equally matched. Next update in 4 weeks after my touch up. Don't hesitate book with them now! My pictures speak for themselves. Pros: Meter parking , great decor/space, friendly staff, fast turnaround Cons: None read more

Second time going , second time not getting what I want and the prices are definitely different then the website. I asked for full small knotless braids ( at least one hundred braids ) I literally have 50 large /medium braids in my hair !!! So discouraging but like many braiding salons they do what they want despite your protest . I am so disappointed in addition the braids which are listed in the website as 300 cost m 350$. Not a fan read more

I really wanted to like this place. I did. I made an apt for Thursday 6|11 at 12 pm. At 1 o'clock in the MORNING, I got an email stating that my apt was going to be pushed back to 2pm. First red flag. I arrive, and about 15 minutes after waiting, I'm told that my stylist will arrive shortly. No problem. Almost an hour has passed. Still no stylist. 2nd red flag. Other stylists in the shop start to get me situated and confirm what hairstyle I want. They then tell me that I have a lot of hair so instead of small braids (what I paid for), I'd get medium sized braids. My head's big, I have a lot of hair- so, okay. I GUESS. Third red flag. My stylist arrives, we start at approximately 3:10. She was finished by 6:45. I've gotten protective styles in the past & the least amount of time it has ever taken was 4 hours. With 2 people. It looks okay. The sections of hair, in my opinion, are way too big. Definitely not worth what I paid for. They charged $300 for a style that I feel was rushed. The stray ends in each braid wasn't trimmed for a neater look, there was no mousse applied... it was a very lackluster experience. I won't be back. I wouldn't recommend. read more

Book without hesitation! I came here to get my hair braided for the very first time. My stylist Samantha did a great job & was very patient with me, I was able to ask questions and explain how I wanted my hair without her getting annoyed or an attitude. I did boho knotless braids they were completely pain free. Both Samantha and owner Olivia are very friendly & have excellent customer service. 5 star experience all around. I highly recommend!

Bumped into one of their long time clients on the train who spoke highly of her experiences with this hair salon. I'm super picky about who I have in my hair and trying new places so I was sketchy to say the least. Anyways I scheduled an appointment for this last Saturday March 9, 2019 for 8 a.m. let me mention this I leave in WESTCHESTER AND THE COMMUTE TO GET HERE WAS LONG. I was 11 mins late but Chavon said that wouldn't be an issue. She told me to have a seat and that someone would be with me soon. Soon was about 35 mins later. The lady who initially started my hair was pleasant and quiet. She made small talk while while washing and blowing dying my hair and made me feel like she knew what she was doing. About 10 braids in she was pulled away to do another woman's hair. I was told she'd be back to finish. 1 hour later a different woman was in my hair. I'm not exaggerating when I say this lady yanked on my full very thick natural hair. She complained that I didn't properly detangle my hair in which I expressed to her yea it was and it was blow dried here. She kept telling me I was tinder headed and would revert back to roughly combing my hair from root to end. I stopped her several times to tell her it would be easier if she Conner from END TO ROOT. SHE NEVER DID IT. this woman stopped to eat. At that point the owner steps in and starts braiding. I was so frustrated and displeased because it was pushing 1 o'clock and not every the back of my hair was done. At no point did I complain or catch an attitude, even after 3 ppl had been in my head. The style that I had paid For was bohemian knotless braids at bra strap length. I received a mashup of boxbraids WITH KNOT all different sizes. For a style that should have taken 5-7 hours took almost 8 and was no where near what I paid for. I expressed to them when I only had the back of my hair braided and had been sitting in the salon for about 5 hours that I had somewhere to be at 5pm. I was assured that the braider knew what she was doing and could move fast. I'm so disappointed. Better luck to the next time. Ladies pick and choose wisely. I clearly picked the wrong place and now I'm about to wash $330 down the drown. (($30 extra for the wash)) read more

I'm literally sitting here having my hair done as I type this review and the service is that excellent that I decided to write a review on the spot. This is my third time in the shop and every time I come here I am extremely satisfied. I noticed some bad reviews stating that the styles don't last and that the service sucks. Not true! I paid 390$ including tip and adding extras on to my style. My braids lasted 2 and half months. I got the bohemian braids. I am currently getting medium knotless box braids and will update with those pictures when I am done. What I like most about this salon is also how they are willing to work with you. Don't let people discourage you with their reviews honestly I was surprised with some of what I read l read more

Glamour queen hair - Bohemian box braids after a month and half - Hair Stylists Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Deeply disappointed by this experience. Despite clearly defined policies, which include a $25 late fee and additional costs for detangling hair ($30 and up) Glamourqueen was a disconcertingly unprofessional salon. Though they have no qualms about charging you for lateness they do not hold themselves to a similar standard. I made an appointment for 10AM (which required a $50 deposit), however, after receiving a confirmation email and charge to my card, I received several calls and a text from Olivia, who I assumed was one of the stylists, saying that there was no availability until 2PM. I responded back within 30 mins agreeing to the 2PM time, though I found it odd that their system had accepted and charged me if there was no availability then. When I arrived at 2PM, Olivia seemed surprised to see me and said that there was no availability for me then either. Every chair in the salon was filled and with a sinking feeling I realized I would potentially have to wait hours to get my hair done. Olivia was both unapologetic and unsympathetic to the situation their scheduling system had created and I ultimately left with my hair not done...and in total I wasted about 2.5 hrs of my day going to and from this salon, not to mention transit fees. This salon has elevated prices with certain basic styles starting at $300 and below market service. Would not recommend, unless you have endless time to waste. read more

Found this salon through the great powers of social media (IG to be specific). Saw soo many wonderful post of different styles and reviews from clients that I figured why not give it a try. I scheduled my appt for a Saturday afternoon through their user friendly online system. I had a question prior to booking and the staff was very helpful through text to answer me. All appts require a non refundable deposit which is applied to your balance. All final payments are only accepted in cash which is to take note. Upon arrival, my stylist confirmed the style I desired and walked me through any additions or last minute changes I had. Went straight to work and no long or dragged out breaks as I've had in the past prior braiding experience that make the process longer then necessary. The space was clean and felt comfortable in the 5hrs spent there. Marcy and her daughter did an amazing job on my knotless bohemian box braids. I'm obsessed with how it came out and feel. I will definitely be coming back for another service (worth the long commute from the BX). read more

I'm writing this for myself and another patron who visited the same day as myself! Saturday, June 27th, we both had 9am appointments! This girl waited 3 1/2 hours for the owner of salon to show up to braid her hair! Wait! There was no formal apology and the owner took another client to her chair b/c the braider doing my hair was told to do her hair!! So, she actually waited 4 plus hours to get her hair done!!! INSANITY!!! Why didn't she just leave, you ask? Well, she travelled from New Jersey to Brooklyn!!! That's too far to just turn around and go home! As for myself, I waited 1hour for my stylist to ARRIVE! I had to ask what was going on to be informed! The workers in this salon lack social skills which affects their overall customer service! Did I mention that the owner is brute and dry!? So, I requested small-medium feed in braid style, BUT what I got was jumbo braids! The cornrows were lose and braids began falling out on day two! Even after getting 3 rows re-done in the back 3 days later, my style still looked a month old!! Hey, if you choose to go to this salon, go at your own risk! I saw a couple other women return for braids needing fixes!! I guess it's a "hit or miss" type of place! The cleanliness is sub-par and the bathroom has a hole where a window should be!? I mean, combs and hair drop on the floor and they just put it right back into your head?!!!! Moreover, they only take CASH!! And didn't even know how much I was quoted when I made my appointment! I had to pull up my confirmation receipt on my phone!! Why is that? There is no computer that they can refer to for appointments etc. My stylist even told me not to say anything about my quoted price b/c owner might charge me MORE!?? "Oh no the hell she won't!" Listen, go to this salon at your own risk, but hit me up if you want excellent braiders w/ great customer service who can give you a clean and professional environment and experience!!! read more

Glamour queen hair - Hair Stylists Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Lack luster experience. My stylist arrived an hour after my appointment time. I paid for small parts and the stylist placed medium size parts in my hair. Do not be fooled by the instagram hype of this place. My hair looked nothing like the picture or how I wanted my hair to come out. The stylist was sloppy with her work and I had to take down the almost $300 style in less than 3 weeks. Never again. Go to Harlem or someone who you know can do the style for less. read more

I came here and long story short.. all the bad reviews are true.. 3 people in my hair and my hair looks nothing what was advertised.. BUYER BEWARE! UPDATE!: A week in and I had to rinse my scalp with ACV and prescription shampoo in order to stop the unreal flakiness and itchy scalp.. I was so disappointed with the fact that the hair they used is doused in lye.. I took this style out weeks later after not wanting to really flush money down the drain but I already did when I coughed up $450.00 for this style.. and I felt like I lost some edges from the heavy weight of the hair and the tightness.. please.. find somewhere else.. this is a spot I would avoid forever.. read more

Experiments at Glamour Queen is fast and quick. Been here about three times and love each and every style. The team at Glamour Queen are very nice and respectful. You do have to wear a mask; not a bit uncomfortable; style was done in about 3hrs. I got the guyanese Bob loc style; wish it was a little more curly texture. I will ask about that on next visit for maintenance upkeep. read more

I'm a regular customer for months. I usually get crotchet hair style, but today I received kinky twist. I've always been satisfied and the stylists always makes sure you're satisfied throughout and after their done. For those who have hair issues you should be aware of your scalp sensitivity to synthetic hair. I am and always prewash my hair with vinager and conditioner and never have issues. The stylists hair can also pre soak the hair for you. I never had issues and will continue to be a client. read more

This salon is definitely a hit or miss. I decided to try the place out even though there seem to bee just as many good reviews as bad reviews. 1. Even though I was on time it was one hour before my hair was touched. If u r late they charge $25. I believe if they are late starting ur hair the customer should get $25 of their service. 2. Although I selected a style from the website I wanted to change the style. Way before she even touched my hair. I was not allowed to change styles. 3. I do not like 4 ppl braiding my hair EVER. 4. When ur done u receive an envelope with the amount u owe. The amount charged when u make an appt does not reflect the amount u owe. As professionals itemize. Total cost - amount paid prior to service. Don't just show an amount owed.. 5. The one and only positive no pain when ur braids are done. The actual style not worth writing about. read more

On Jan 11th, I made my 5th or 6th visit to Glamourqueen and as usual was not disappointed. Previously, I installed the Goddes Locs, Senegalese Twists and Knotless braids, which I did again on the 11th. I told Zinny exactly what I wanted after contemplating but she remembered me from my previous visits and assisted me with deciding the length, which turned out to be perfect. I have received soooo many compliments and have referred a few people who wanted the same *look* as myself. And to top it all off, I was in and out in three hours! read more

Hello, I just finished my crotchet appointment with Sonia. She started my appointment right on time and was so friendly and welcoming. She made sure I was comfortable and prepared everything to make the process as smooth and quick as possible. Her attitude towards customers is wonderful and welcoming. My hair was braided well and looked amazing. The install was fast, well done and with very little pain. I am so happy with the results. Sonia was so helpful in showing me how to style it, so I had options once I get home. Lastly, the finishing touches of accessories and my edges were so cute - it was the perfect end to my hairstyle. I am already picking out my next style and will be coming back soon! I already invited my mom to get her hair done here as well and I know she'll be a happy customer too. read more

This is my 3rd time here and it was actually an accident. They changed their location and it's several IG pages linked to this place. Point being, if I knew I were coming here I would have aborted immediately. Timeliness does not exist here. The first time I came it was cool, I was happy. The second time I came, I waited 3 hours post appointment time because they didn't have the color hair I selected in my appointment booking and didn't contact me. Therefore, I had to wait for the hair store to open, go get the hair, then come back and wait for them finish someone else. I'm here today, my appointment was at 9am. It is now 10:30am and nobody has touched my hair. I was told my stylist is running a little late. To icing the cake, two ladies who came after me are being served. I will definitely do better at avoiding this place. 0 stars read more

I was happy to take the trip out from Manhattan to get these gorgeous locs from @Glamourqueenhair ! From the beginning the staff was friendly, professional. It is *by far* the cleanest braiding salon I've visited. I got the Bohemian Locs & was shocked at how fast and painless the process was. My tresses are gorgeous. Thank you, Glamourqueenhair! read more

I booked the "Knotless Bohemian Braid, Waist Length Style". As always my expectations were exceeded third visit to the salon. Shervon did my hair.

I look forward to a touch up in a few weeks! read more

I'm writing this review on a flight to Ghana just so I can share my experience before it slips my mind. This was my third time patronizing Glamour Queen Hair (1st - install, 2nd - touch up, 3rd - install) and I have to say, I have never left a hair salon so satisfied after such a significant investment on my hair. They didn't know it but my day started out with a personal crisis/emergency on top of the fact that I overslept and missed my 8 am appt by 45 min. Olivia the owner was so accommodating and let me come back that afternoon. I had an upcoming trip and this was my ONLY window AND I was able to deal with the emergency. Needless to say I had my own idea of what I thought I wanted and in the end they knew best. Her team although exhausted, redid an entire section off of my mistake. I was so forever grateful. I was willing to take the 'L' but they wanted me to be happy. I cant tell yall what this meant to me. Olivia really cares about a quality standard of service and so did the team that was there that night. They had me laughing the whole night! What an enjoyable experience I would recommend to anyone who could afford to make the investment. For me leaving pain free is worth it. The only thing I would do differently is to have it fuller in the front. Thats something I always deal with when getting braids or locs but I know they'll work with me to get it right to my satisfaction. read more

5 Stars to this amazing team!! I am such a last minute person - I tried booking an appointment online but saw that there was no availability. I decided to text the phone number in their bio on IG & was able to book a last minute appointment for the same day! The owner of Glamour Queen hair had just given birth a day ago & still allowed me to book with them without any problems. Her boyfriend did my amazing human hair goddess locs. The process was long (about 9hrs) & pricey, but it was definitely worth the investment if you're trying to grow out your hair long term!! They are super light weight & I get so many compliments every single day. The older they get, the better they look! Thank you for the amazing slay team Glamour Queen! read more

SCAM!!!! Waited almost an hour from appt time to get started and the hair was done cheaply. They used the crochet braids and wrapped it from the root to like a quarter along then hair. Also made huge size parts so less work was needed. Cheap technique used for a $350 hairstyle. Also I had the worst time taking down these braids. It was knotted and tied making it so difficult for the help I had to take them out. I spent a total of 5 hours to take out these huge parter faux locs. So disappointed and would never recommend. read more

I found this page through Instagram and instantly fell in love making me book immediately especially with the early availability. I didn't do my deep research about the place so I got nervous and looked here for reviews which was even more nerve wrecking lol. My appointment was moved up to a different time schedule but I liked how I was notified in ADVANCE. And yes a braiding process is a long time and though I had to wait for my turn past my appointment time, I was still handled with care and service was not rushed. My experience was a pleasant experience and I would come back again especially to Denise!!! read more

There are a few must haves in a woman's Beauty Arsenal And an amazing hair stylist is definitely one of them - I say this from the perspective of not only as a client but also as a service provider and being a spa owner- also flying all the way from Florida to New York to have my hair done with Olivia was to say the very least a treat! I have now had my hair done with Olivia 3 times and I cannot say how important it is to have someone who can take your vision of yourself and make it come to life! the importance of having the outside match what a woman feels on the inside is so key and Olivia is that artist ...I also own a business so I speak from the point of view of someone who is in the business of making others look beautiful so I don't take lightly this review or my time and experience with Olivia she is dedicated to her craft and having had my hair done with her 3 times I cannot say that I have ever left her magic hands unsatisfied. she is not only an amazing person but also beyond gifted in her talents. I do live in Florida so unless I'm able to escape to New York or where I've had the pleasure of being a client of hers during one of her hair tours I am always Anxiously and excitedly awaiting when its time to get my hair done with Olivia As a business owner I also recognize the importance of reviews as having been in business for over 10 years and having had the opportunity of building my business via word-of-mouth and through online reviews ;I can post this with great confidence in saying to a person who is considering Having their hair done with Olivia and her group of stylist to not hesitate it will be the outcome that You had hoped for and more! Unfortunately I also recognize as a business owner that you can't please everyone so as for any of her reviews that were less then ideal- I will end with this Olivia is all about excellence. excellence is a character trait that everyone wants from someone who they're trusting with their hair. BUT perfection is unattainable -by anyone- so having said that, just know that you are going into excellent hands with Olivia and that's about as perfect as it can get! read more

WAVY GODDESS/ BOHEMIAN LOCS I realllllyy wanted to love this style. It's not that I didn't like the look of it, at first glance I love it. Howeverrrr I haven't even had this style a month yet and I've been having issues with it since the second week of having it in my head. Not even a full week after I got my hair done I had locs unraveling which resulted in my real hair showing which is in braids. Like I can touch them or run my fingers through and feel my hair. Sooo I'm not sure why that's happening I haven't done anything other than my normal routine of going to work everyday. I'm still having the same issues here in week 3 where I have to try and re wrap the hair to try & cover my hair, so that was very disappointing. Especially for the price and the advertising of this style lasting over a month. Other than that I've been trying to make it work for as long as I can but I know for sure this won't last me the allotted time that was advertised, I will be taking these out soon unfortunately. I wouldn't say the staff made me feel uncomfortable but it didn't feel so personal is all I will say. read more

Hate how they treat people they need better communication skills dealing with their customers

This place was a referral and I've never stepped foot in their door. My original appointment that I paid a deposit for was for 6/12/17 at 3PM then on the day of my appointment the owner called to tell me that her employee called out sick because her daughter was sick. I asked if someone else could do my hair because I had a flight out of town the next day. The owner did not seem concerned which should have been a sign for me, she told me that she could have me come by the shop later on that day. She promised to call me back. I waited for 3 hours and finally decided to call her back. She answered and responded that I would need to come to the shop at 9PM that evening. I told her that my Goddess locs would look terrible if I allowed a tired stylist to do my hair so late. She agreed and we decided to reschedule for 6/23 at 3PM. Once again the owner texted me to tell me that she is "overly" booked and is short one stylist and needed to change my appointment AGAIN. Now, I've been really nice and understanding at this point. But, WOW! Is this really how you treat a new referral who has a Yelp Account?!?!? I agreed to change one last time since I wanted to get Goddess locs for the summer. So my final appointment was for 6/24 at 7AM. Which I confirmed via text with the owner. Days later I receive an incorrect email confirmation for 6/23 at 3PM, I text the owner about the wrong date and time and received no response. So this morning, I asked for a confirmation or my $103 deposit refunded to me. I will keep you posted. But I might have to fight this with Paypal. I have all the freaking text messages and I have no problem commenting on how unprofessional this experience has been with this business. read more

Glamour queen hair - Hair Stylists Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I've been here three times, the first time being January 2020. The second time was February 2020 immediately before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and the third time was when NYC opened up salons during Phase 3 (July 2020). The first time I walked in the owner, Olivia greeted me with a warm smile and a good morning. Hair braiding salons (especially in this part of Brooklyn) are a dime a dozen but what made the big difference for me was how I was greeted the minute I walked into her salon. Clearly, it's the reason why I came back. The first and third time I had the same braider and the 2nd visit (a touch-up for my knotless braids) was with a different woman. Both of these women were very professional and friendly. I also loved the fact that I never had to wait to be seen. My first appointment was scheduled for 9am and she started me at 9:10am and finished exactly 4 hours later. Because I had blew dry my hair too straight, it took an additional hour and when I returned in July, I had them wash and blow dry my hair. That time the knotless braids only took 3 hours. I applaud the braider because she never took a break, wasn't preoccupied with her cell phone and she was so friendly. If you want a great salon experience with professional and friendly braiders, this is the place to go to! read more

WAYYYY too expensive! Girl, just go to your local braid shop. It's not that serious. I got knotless box braids, and I'm embarrassed to say how much I paid for them. For the price I paid, they should be SMALL! Much smaller. They're cool and all, no complaints about the staff or shop. But they're simply BANKING off of some little Instagram hype. The average braid shops do the same thing! For muuuuch cheaper. read more

Hate hate hate my hair!!! Such a waste of money!!! The Island twist hairstyle didn't even last one full week. It's falling out and knotting up. Can't believe I spent all this money on this hairstyle.

I wished I had read the below reviews before booking them. They need to be reported to the better business bureau. Horrible just horrible!!! read more

My name is Linda and I recently did the Guyanese locs (bob). The style is very nice but I'm not satisfied with the quality of the hair. I thought since it was more expensive ($350) it would of been a softer feel; It's a bit too stiff for me. I am unsure what the difference is between the bohemian locs and the Guyanese locs because they both look the same to me, it's just the Guyanese is $100 more. Nonetheless, staff is very friendly and everything ran on a timely manner. I was really excited about the this hairstyle but it didn't get what I was really looking for. read more

Where do I even begin? I've done three styles previously with Glamour and have always been more than pleased with the results. I decided for my birthday this year I wanted to do a goddess loc bob. I booked a wash and dry service with the bob as well. Right now Glamour is at a temporary location. I did not know that while at their temporary location they could not provide a wash and dry service and was on the verge of tears when owner Olivia came to the rescue. Olivia calmed me, provided a solution, washed my hair, gave me a treatment, dried, and trim before one of the stylist would continue to braid and install the goddess locs. She took the time to also talk to me about the treatment she gave me and overall hair and scalp care. This was very important to me because I have dry scalp issues and struggle with maintaining it. Single handedly saved my bday plans/look. Her spirit and energy is amazing and infectious. Very sweet, humble and kind. Customer service once again is AMAZING. I would recommend to anyone and I will be continuing to support this wonderful young business woman in her endeavors.xoxo read more
