I had such a great experience with Brandi at Yahi's Dominican Salon in Bed-Stuy (Ralph Ave…read morelocation). This was my first time coming to the salon, and I will definitely be returning -- no complaints at all. I came in needing color correction, and Brandi took her time to do it right. It ended up being about five hours with two rounds of processing, but I never felt rushed or overlooked. She was very attentive throughout and made sure my hair stayed healthy, using a lot of conditioner and including a protein treatment, which I really appreciated. Brandi also has a lot of personality -- she's fun, welcoming, and keeps the energy up, but at the same time she's very efficient and quick with her work. You can tell she really knows and loves what she's doing. Instead of going straight in with heat, she set my hair on rollers and had me sit under the dryer, which gave me a smooth, beautiful finish without unnecessary damage. My hair came out looking amazing -- the color is exactly what I wanted, and it feels just as good as it looks. The total came out to around $200 (and i tipped extra), which felt fair and to be expected given the time, care, and multiple processes involved. I couldn't be more pleased with the results and highly recommend Brandi to anyone looking for great color and care.

DO NOT COME TO THIS SALON IF YOU WANT TO LEAVE WITH YOUR HAIR. I feel so incredibly violated after…read morelosing all of my hair to a "keratin treatment". I came here in August to get my first keratin treatment. I have incredibly curly thick hair and was just so tired of fighting with it. I wanted to try something to smooth it out and had done some research on keratin treatments. The first time I got the treatment here, I really liked it. My hair was really smooth and so easy to style. It didn't revert back to a wearable curl pattern but I was ok with that as I wanted to wear it straight. At around 3 months, I started losing more and more hair to breakage which made me question if it was time to return for a re-do or my hair was damaged and I needed to take a break. I returned to the salon, explained what was happening to the stylist and she examined my hair and told me it's just time for another treatment. She then applied the product to my hair from root to the tip of my hair and sealed it etc. I waited 4 days to wash the treatment out which was her guidance. When I did, pieces of my hair coated my entire shower. Literally handfuls of my hair were breaking off. If I just look at my hair, it breaks. I'm shocked I even have hair left on my head after how much hair I've lost. When I went to get my haircut, the stylist was shocked. She said I just have to cut everything off over the next few months until my new growth comes back. I can't wear my hair out until the fall so I have to keep it braided down for the next 6 months. I cried so hard while she cut away everything I had. I used to have the most beautiful hair and now literally all of it is gone. My new stylist actually thinks the woman who did my keratin used a relaxer and double processed but either way, she said it's the most damage she's seen in years. I just feel so betrayed and violated by this whole experience. I just have no idea why someone would do something like this. I'm truly devastated.

This was my first time going to beauty mark. My hair has been natural for 11 years & has not been…read moretouched by heat appliances in almost as long. I was anxious because 3 months before my hair was damaged by a bad coloring job @ another salon. I lost a great deal of length because of the breakage & shedding of hair that resulted. At Beauty Mark I received the new client package with the addition of color correction & an improved dye job with Joico products. The outcome of the color job was absolutely beautiful!! Kimberly is really masterful at coloring. She cut my damaged & severely uneven hair & made it look decent again. The results of the silk press was very soft hair that was full of body & shine. Kimberly herself is very personable & immediately makes you feel welcomed. She is knowledgeable regarding natural hair care as well as other hair care routines. She is passionate about hair care & desires to give her clients the best outcomes possible. I really enjoyed my experience from beginning to end & I will not hesitate to return to Beauty Mark Salon. Had my second visit to Kimberly @ beauty Mark salon & again she did not disappoint. I had a touch up of my multi hair color , wash, blow dry & silk press, cut & style. I have enclosed pictures so you can see what a beautiful job she did. The color is absolutely gorgeous & my hair is now totally healthy, & full of body, shine & bounce. i went to humid Myrtle beach & my hair is still in great shape & did not revert in the humidity & while on the beach. Kimberly is great at what she does & she is a very gracious person to boot. I received so many compliments on my hair, I lost track of the number. I have complete confidence in Kimberly & highly recommend her.

I have a curly fro- wondered if I would lose my curl pattern, if it would be permed or ruin my hair. With all doubts, Kimberly & staff was the upmost professional from the last minute reservation on my part, from the moment I walked in and until I left. She made me feel comfortable and like family. Even shared mutual experiences and such. My hair to say in the least, is healthier, cut perfectly and the silk press- had your boy feeling like a hair model. What I loved the most was her comment: "if you don't get out my char, I'll keep playing with your hair all day." Her passion for hair and my results-big reason why I will be back soon.
