I am writing a review on this site to shed light on how my soon to be mom was treated, when…read morerequesting service at a Black owned and operated beauty cafe. Back story per the customer: After not being able to get anyone on the phone The customer drove to the shop. The owner Azuka opened the door while on the phone she told her that I she had to call for an appointment. The customer told her that she tried but only got voicemail ( The voicemail tells you not to leave appointments on voicemail ) so she decided to come in person and make an appointment. Azuka gave her an appointment and about 5 minutes later Azuka called and said she had to cancel her appointment that she gave her because (and I quote) "my energy with her was not going to work". So let me start by saying that my soon to be mom is one of the kindest people I know and I have never seen her get angry or not show grace to anyone. With that being said she is amid about supporting BLACK BUSINESSES. Facts: 9.5% businesses in the United States are black owned. Eight out of 10 of them fail within the first 18 months. I went and reviewed this particular business website to find that this place has been in business for almost 20 years! Also , to say the least their mission statement mentions "well-recognized in the community for professional, high quality beauty services and cosmetic products". Keyword : Professionalism I highlight professionalism above because black businesses lack it as this particular one did. We need more black businesses and entrepreneurs so that we as black people can become and stay wealth builders for generations! As a business owner please think about your own biases and how they would reflect to your customers that are supporting you. Consider how you can do better because without our support your business cannot be successful without it. ALWAYS STRIVE TO EXCEED YOUR CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCE OR CLIENTS EXPECTATIONS AT ALL TIMES, WHENEVER AND WHEREVER POSSIBLE!!! When a business provides consistent excellent service or products, a consumer will become a loyal repeat customer, regardless of the distance, and they will also help grow your business by referring others. I have a wedding coming up and I was looking at hiring a black owned business to service me and my entire bridal party but after listening to this testimony I shall try somewhere else (black owned) and I hope I won't receive the lack of professionalism that was mentioned above because .....that wouldn't work well with my energy.

I deducted a star because of the lack of privacy from the Walmart cashiers when you're in wax chairs up front (they do have private rooms for more intimate waxings... bikini, underarms, etc...) And they do not use hard wax which I've grown accustomed to but I'll get use to the strip wax.

When you have melanin skin, you really need someone who knows how to care, heal and protect your skin. Ericka was just that person. After just 2 facial treatments, I noticed healing on my face, smoother and softer skin! I am glad I found her and will continue to let her heal my skin.
