Overall I'm happy to support a local spot but likely won't go back. General review is, it's not…read moreventilated at all (so much smoke from hair drying), no heat protectant on my type of hair (smoked the entire blow dry), not very custom but, kind of expected all of this. I'm giving it 4 stars because even if I don't go back, it's likely it may be right for someone else. Also, fully would never want a woman of color owned local spot place to be docked for my own preferences. I was definitely over charged unfortunately. The woman washing my hair, although very kind, put conditioner on my hair and put me under a heat lamp (I knew it was going to be an up charge but she didn't give me an option to say no...for conditioner *sigh*) When I called the owner (Wanda) she told me that haircuts were starting at $35, I ended up paying $60 with a $15 dollar tip and a $30 surcharge for a CC so $78. Too much. Twice what I was quoted. She was also so incredibly sweet. I'm not sure who I ended up seeing, but I kept seeing reviews that people talk to the owner, but don't get their haircut by her but not that big of an issue. BUT it is unfortunate because I had an expectation after talking to her, and it just sadly wasn't met. The girl who cut my hair didn't speak any English (which is fine) but I essentially sat down "what do you want" and then no other words even a "you're welcome" after. The woman washing hair was lovely and really thorough. My hair is clean and cut pretty well but smells like burnt hair. ): Anyways, might work for you so def give it a try. Especially if you have different textures.

I heard about both of them from my current hair stylist who said Roxan is the best for updo and anyone she hires for makeup is great. She did not lie. I paid my deposits for both of them and showed up at 11am sharp for my appt. I got my hair washed and i was out in the dryer with rollers while i waited for roxan. When my hair was dried, i got my makeup done and Roxan styled another client. After my makeup was done she styled my hair. She was honest about what would work and not work for my hair as my hair is very long but fine. And she added hair and things to make it look fuller. I left feeling beautiful and my son even called me a princess! It's now Sunday night and my hair is still intact, i don't want to undo it because i love it and have been sleeping with a bonnet and it looks exactly the same ! The makeup didn't budge at all until i washed it off. I will def be back for all future events. I loved the work and how convenient it was to get my hair and makeup done at the same location!
