    This place has been here for years and I just started getting my hair here about a year ago when my hair dresser stopped selling my hair. They have an overwhelming amount of options but always have everything I need. Inflation has impact the hair world so much that my freetress crochet hair used to be 3.99 it is now 7.99. Yikes! I still need it. The family that owns the places is nice and helps you find what you need. I applaud the lady for knowing exactly where everything is and how much she has left.

    I have been coming here for years. I read the reviews and still ventured in. It is messy but it's their organized mess and they KNOW where everything is at. They have such a large variety of braiding hair. That's mainly what I go there for. And it is conveniently located in Hayward off of mission. Before I found Nu-Hair I was going to Oakland. Try them out. They have just about anything you need for your new do.

    Move along now. Nothing to see here. Just ten tons of...hair!!

    The previous Yelper wasn't lying. HAIR IS LITERALLY EVERYWHERE. ZOMG. Synthetic hair, human hair, hair on a track, clip ins, enclosures, wigs, yellow extensions, blue extensions, braiding hair, Rasta-Afri hair, curly hair, straight hair, kanekalon hair, kinky curly hair....you name it they've got it. The problem? This place is cluttered like a hoarder's house!!!!!! I almost lost my mind walking in there. I reached for a package and a kanekalon braid fell on my dome, er, head. I took pics because the state of this joint is unreal. I asked for help and got it. The Rasta-Afri hair I needed for my Senegalese twists was $2.99/per bag. They had color #3 which was amazing! My hair isn't quite a #2 and #4 is too reddish/light, so I've always had to choose between the two or get both and have my braider mix them in. If you need African-AMerican beauty supply products, this is the place.

    I was pretty set in what I wanted. I wanted jet black 18-20" extensions. The problem was which brand to get. I went to Sally's next door and they ran about $120-$140 for a set. I went right next door, Nu Hair, to this Chinese hair store. Lots and lots hair from ceiling to floor and stacked on boxes in between the aisles. I looked around and was overwhelmed but how much different kinds of hair there was. I just walked up to the register and the nice lady helped me out and made a perfect recommendation. I said I want good quality, clip-in hair extensions in very dark jet black. I got exactly that. She recommended the Secret Sepia brand in 18" and it came out to 99.99 bucks before taxes. The other lady said, "You like cah (She was trying to say car)? This like Mercedes Benz." Lol I was sold when I felt it. Fairly priced considering really fancy ones can go for up to $200+. But I am a newbie and am more than pleased with my first set. They are beautiful and soft and I AM in LOOOOVE with my new extensions. I think I am newly obsessed with hair extensions now. I WANT MORE! And lucky me this place isn't far from home.

    Always has what you need but don't try to get it yourself. Very tight space. Thankfully the staff will grab whatever you want.

    I had a "tale of two experiences" at this Sephora location today. I came in specifically for a hair…read moreproduct and ended up seeing both the worst and the best of what retail service has to offer. The Issue: Upon entering, I approached two employees who were busy chatting. I politely interrupted to ask for a specific product. Instead of showing me to the shelf, one of them just pointed vaguely toward an entire side of the store and said, "That will be over there." I spent several minutes wandering around unable to find it. It was disappointing to see staff prioritizing a personal Starbucks delivery over actually helping a guest on the floor. The Recovery: Everything changed when I went up to the front and spoke to a cashier named Helen. I showed her a photo of the product, and she didn't just point--she immediately told me exactly where it was and then walked over to assist me personally. She checked in to make sure I found everything I needed and was incredibly professional and kind. Final Verdict: If you visit this location, look for Helen. She is an African American woman who clearly understands what real customer service looks like. She saved the trip, but management should definitely look into the floor staff's lack of engagement.

    I had an uncomfortable interaction with Jessica during my visit. From the moment I walked up, the…read moreenergy felt off. I didn't ask about a return policy or anything related to that, yet she immediately started loudly explaining the return policy to me, which felt unnecessary and made the interaction awkward. What made it more frustrating is that I had reward points available that could have been used toward my purchase, and I had to remind her about it. That's something staff should normally mention to customers so they can save a few dollars. I also noticed that right before helping me she seemed very bubbly and friendly with other customers, but when it came to my interaction the tone was completely different. As a paying customer, I expect to be treated with the same courtesy and professionalism as everyone else. Customer service should feel welcoming and consistent for everyone. I hope management addresses this because experiences like that can really leave a bad impression.

My daughter and I returned specifically to purchase an item we had seen the previous day, so we knew exactly what we wanted and would have been in and out quickly. We arrived approximately 12-13 minutes before closing, but the security gate was already completely down. I could clearly see the employee at the register closing out the register. We knocked to get her attention, and she looked directly up at us but chose to ignore us and continued what she was doing. I also have timestamped photos showing that the store was closed before 7:00 PM, as well as the employee looking up after we knocked. None of the surrounding stores were closed yet, which made the situation even more frustrating. If the posted closing time is 7:00 PM, customers should be able to enter and make a quick purchase until that time. Closing nearly 15 minutes early and refusing to even acknowledge a customer standing outside is completely unprofessional. After reading the existing reviews for this location, it seems this may not be an isolated issue. Management and corporate need to seriously address the customer service and operating practices at this store. My daughter and I left disappointed and took our business elsewhere. Customers should not be ignored or turned away before the posted closing time, especially when there is clear timestamped documentation showing exactly what happened.

I'm not sure what her name is but shoutout to her she was so kind :) My issue was with one of the associates I asked a question to regarding a product I was interested in. After she mentioned she's never tried it, she started asking me what my skin care routine was. Honestly I had no issue with that, my issue was her hella critiquing my skin while making these faces (which I don't even think she realizes she makes). It definitely did not make me as a customer feel welcomed, and in the moment I literally said "I know my skin isn't the best right now" cause she just kept it up with her faces and comments. As I was mentioning my skincare routine before applying makeup, she cut me off asking if I exfoliate since she saw I had a few blemishes here and there, and this whole convo wasn't even supposed to be this deep about skincare. I was literally just asking about a makeup product... As a college student with acne prone skin i'm very aware I don't have glowing skin, it's a work in progress. But those faces and attitude was straight up unwarranted. I literally had to just walk away mid speech about her being a "skincare expert", like girl I get it you're trying to be somewhat helpful but there's other ways to assist customers than the way you did. I literally work in sales and there's so many other ways to treat customers that whatever that was.
