After grabbing the Groupon deal for a full set of mink eyelash extensions, I I headed over to the…read moreEye Crave Lashes website to grab an appointment about a month or so out. The website was user friendly and I got an email confirmation immediately. The day comes around and I arrived at about 9:50 AM for my 10 AM appointment. The business list its hours as opening at 9 AM but the shop was completely closed up, so I took a seat and waited. 5 mins. later I received a text message from Kay letting me know that she was running about 15 mins late. No problem; it's the DC area and traffic happens. Yet 15 mins came and went and she still had not arrived. At 10:20 AM, I receive another text message letting me know that she is 2 mins away. Okay, great... but another 15 mins passes before she finally makes her way to the shop. In addition to being over 30 mins late for the appointment, she also had her young daughter in tow. Normally, this would be of no concern to me but it proved to continue to delay my service as she had to constantly stop to address or tend to her daughter. And then there was her cell phone... I understand that when operating a small business, you may need to perform double duty, like answering your business line while attending to your client. But she was also making calls that could have clearly waited, like calling her wireless company to discuss changing her service plan. As for the lashes themselves, they turned out rather decent. Because of the shortness of my natural lashes, she recommended that I go with shorter extensions, which turned out to be a very good choice. However, once they were done, I didn't even receive any instructions on how to take care of them. I won't say not to patronize this place because it has serious potential to be great. However, if you decide to head this way, it's probably best to slightly lower your expectations.

Honestly, I didn't have the best experience with this technician. She didn't even introduce herself…read moreso I can't even tell you her name. Maybe she was agitated about me being a little late but this could've all been avoided had she communicated with me effectively. She also didn't ask the shape, length or curl I desired for my lash style. I had an appointment at 5pm and I am generally a prompt person so I factor in traffic to my travel time but nonetheless there were unexpected detours in my area. I was already stuck in traffic for a hour trying to get to her so I needed to know if she would still be able to take me at 5:30pm instead. I called 30 minutes prior to my appointment at 4:30pm and left an a voicemail to inform her of the lateness and ask if she would like to reschedule but no answer. I called her again at 5pm and again no answer. Now I'm 5 minutes away from her salon when she decides to inform me of a late fee through text because I will be 30 minutes late for my appointment. Its unprofessional because we could've discussed this a whole hour before I arrived and I could've made the decision to proceed or not had she answered her phone that she was so attentive to when I was getting my lashes done AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF....SHE POKED MY EYEBALL and the next day was red and painful. The lashes look somewhat decent though so that's why I gave 2 stars instead of one.

I hate my loc extensions. I already had loc'ed hair and it was a decent length. (I like locs in…read moregeneral, this isn't about me disliking the hairstyle) I got loc extensions past my shoulders on 9/9 and I am ready to cut them out on 9/24. Why? Why would I spend an exorbitant amount of money on locs only to take them out 2 weeks and 1 day later? Since they are interlocked into my real hair I am not going to try to comb them out and salvage my real hair. I'll start here 1. My hair is soft and dark brown the locs are off black and made with 4 C hair. They do not match my real hair AT ALL and the color washes me out. 2. They are stiff, itchy, not uniform size, heavy looking and ugly (think the hats in Jamaica with the locs attached to the hat). I don't know why Krystina didn't use the right color and/or at least explain that the extensions would not match my real hair color or texture. (Or explained anything, for that matter. I walked in and she got to work no "Q & A" prior to starting) 3. They are very heavy and very bulky and look very unnatural up close. 4. I tie up my hair (EVERY NIGHT) and my parts did not stay. (Perhaps inferior products) I have not done anything other than tie up my hair at night and untie it in the AM. I wish the professional (Krystina) would have analyzed my hair texture and density and advised differently based on her "healthy hair first" mantra. After all, I am not the professional! I wouldn't recommend this service. This is a money grab. I warned you all.

So I left a google review as well. But seeing as though the owner likes to call those that have a…read morebad experience with her "childish" I'll leave a review here too. If you'd like to see the full story and her response just look up this establishment on google, specifically the temple hills location. Today I had a confirmed appointment at 2pm, and because her current client that was in the chair decided to book a wrong service that would interfere with my appointment Krystina decides to text and reschedule 30 minutes before my appointment, while I was already driving and shortly away from her. I'm not going to read a text from an establishment that already acknowledged my confirmation and my appointment as I'm driving. I arrive, apparantely there's nothing that she can do and just confirms if I can come in the next day for the rescheduled time. I'm standing in front of her, with the current client in the chair that booked the wrong service. Krystina did not try to accommodate me while I was there in front of her and early for my appointment. She didnt rectify the situation at all but once I thought about it, cancelled the rescheduled appointment online, decided not to give her my money for anytime in the future and leave a genuine review of my experience- she's very vocal. Apparently if you see her response it's a problem that her clients arrive early or late for their appointments, they HAVE to arrive on time??? Why is it an issue I arrived early? Maybe, just tell me to sit down till 2pm, tell me to come back for 2pm, tell me while I was there that you had an issue with your current client but since it's her fault and since I'm here with the correct booking you'd have to reschedule her instead... something. Why blame me because I'm early, it's weird...Maybe, cancel the client that booked the wrong appointment, maybe do your due diligence before touching someone's hair to make sure you wont be messing with your other appointments for the day. Why not hold yourself accountable for handling this situation the wrong way, but yet you want to ask for grace. I dont get grace for wasting my gas and time today. Did you offer anything for my inconvenience? No... just shoulder shrugs and a reschedule. I'm not going to give my money and will tell my circle of people who also has locs not to go to you because this same disrespect of time and the response that you give will happen to them as well. Calls me childish because of another person's review that I don't personally know about or care for is beyond me, how about respond and give the same energy to that review, it has nothing to do with my experience.
