I want to highlight a very sensitive experience I had with this company. My experience dates back…read moreto Feb of 22; now I know you're like why are you just now writing a review and honestly, it's because I want to stand up for myself and not be afraid of hurting people's feelings who clearly had no regard for mines. Ive struggled with cystic acne and hyperpigmentation since I was in my early 20's. So, around March of 21 I had a consultation with this company and was recommended to do microneedling with PRP. I paid for my package in full (which was very expensive). It included 3 treatments and y'all I was absolutely amazed by the results my skin was much smoother, and the hyperpigmentation was reduced significantly along with the texture I was so happy. So, then I was told to do another package I had no problem because I seen great results. However, at this time this company had just introduced a treatment called "picosure" they hyped this treatment up and ensured me that this was a safe treatment for African American skin I had no reason to believe that they didn't have the knowledge necessary to perform this treatment on me so I paid and scheduled my first treatment which was for Feb 23, 2022. On this day the treatment was started and right off the bat the heat was unbearable, but they told me this was to be expected you guys my face began to weep so much so the esthetician stopped the treatment went and consulted someone else came back and continued the treatment. Now she knew something was wrong, yet she continued now I'm asking her is everything ok am I supposed to be weeping and hurting this bad she said "yes" this is normal. Post treatment OMG it burned so bad they put ice packs on my face and sent me on my way; my face was on fire for 8hrs straight worst pain I've ever experienced. The next day I noticed I had a lot of crusting on my face where I was weeping, and on the third day I was three shades darker. One week later I noticed my face was looking very different my color was off and I had what looked like facial drooping around my smile lines, but I thought ok it's going to get better, but it didn't. My face reverted back to the very hyperpigmentation and scarring I was initially trying to correct only difference my skin was much darker. This sent me into a complete depression because I didn't recognize me at all. I called and spoke to the manager (not sure of her name), but when I explained to her what was going on she was completely dismissive I was crying and pleading with her to help me. She gave me no direction I asked her what can we do she said she didn't know I asked what I can do to help lighten my skin she said go to Walgreens and try and find some cream. There was no help at all I asked for my money back because mind you I paid in full for three treatments and her response was " we don't do refunds and our policy is that you can't move credits to a different service" so I asked "so you expect me to have two more treatments of "picosure" knowingly knowing I can't do this treatment??" she then said as a onetime "curtesy" she will move the credits to microneedling. I wanted my money back because I didn't trust this company, yet I was forced to allow them to touch my face again because I had paid close to $2000 for that treatment, but I wanted my money back and to be done with them. So, after 6weeks my skin was ruined this put me in therapy I couldn't look at myself in the mirror I looked and seen an ugly women Ive never thought this about myself, yet I didn't see me. After the microneedling with PRP I was hoping it would help but it didn't I was devastated. So, I went to Christie Clinic to see a dermatologist because mind you they left me out in the wilderness not knowing what to do, and she immediately told me to stop any and all treatments for a year because my skin was severely damaged. She put me on "hydroquinone cream" to try and lighten my skin so I did just that and I just didn't do anything to my skin but keep spf 50 on and the cream prescribed. The cream did help a little, but I had deep tissue damage, so I was put on a retinol cream at night for the texture that was now back. I was just so discouraged so I didn't do any treatments up until this year. I'm at a new clinic where we are again doing microneedling with PRF Ive had 2 treatments now and things are looking good, but the Dr informed me that what you all did was unacceptable and that you all should have never left me to fend for myself when you damaged my face severely. I was told the reason that I see such a drastic difference in my face specifically my smile lines is due to the high heat from the "picosure" that melted the fat in that area causing dropping. To sum this up you all have caused me significant mental health issues surrounding my appearance to this day you have caused me to spend thousands of dollars trying to correct what you should have corrected what you all did was wrong and I want you all to know

For the ombre, vivid color, and cut that I had, it ended up being reasonably priced as well (again, very important to a college student). And I was very pleasantly surprised! The salon is very clean and welcoming. I actually liked that it is a relatively small salon. All of the customers who went in and out during my four hours there had very friendly, neighborly conversations with all of the stylists. I'm a shy person when it comes to hair, medical, or dental appointments, so I appreciated the atmosphere. That said, I also appreciated that my stylist, Terra, didn't pressure me into constant conversation as many others usually do. She appeared focused throughout the long appointment. As for her work...OH MY GOODNESS is she talented! I told her that the purple to pink ombre I wanted on my dark hair would be the first time I've ever done a dramatic change, and it turned out absolutely beautiful. I could not have asked for a better result! It took about an hour for the bleach to lighten my hair enough for dye, but Terra checked it frequently while kindly reassuring me the colors would still appear my desired shades. She patiently explained what she did at every step of the process, answering my questions about fading, hair damage, staining clothing, etc. She definitely knows her stuff; she showed me pictures of her hair dyed a HUGE array of colors--quite literally every color of the rainbow. Terra is not only a wonderful stylist, but also seems to be a compassionate and thoughtful person. I will recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent salon experience. I look forward to coming back here in the future! (Note: I would have given it 5 stars instead of 4 but for the almost rude receptionist who first scheduled my appointment. She did not greet me at all and seemed annoyed to even be answering my call. I did call two other times, once for an estimate of my appointment's cost and another time to reschedule, and both of those people were friendly.)

Turns out most of the ladies from Hair Benders are now at No. 7! On my friend's recommendation, I drove from Decatur to Champaign for a wax from Tracy - So worth it! Not only is the price amazing ($50 for a brazilian), but Tracy is a skilled waxer. It took about 20 minutes and was pretty painless for getting hair ripped out by its roots. I enjoyed chatting with her and learned some places to check out on future trips to town, which was great. I am definitely making the trip out to the U of I campus again! Some cons: I waited 5-10 mins. past my appointment time (but again, it was so very worth it!), and when I got home I noticed some hairs that had gotten missed (no big deal - I often find thalt a few spots will have a few stubborn hairs). Also the salon has a glass storefront letting all of the afternoon sun in, so it was kind of warm inside. None of these things are a big deal to me - but may be for others. I highly recommend checking out No. 7!
