Basic Quickweave
by Big Sam
Sam did an amazing job on my hair and the atmosphere was very comfortable. She went the extra mile with everything she did.
Basic Quickweave
by Big Sam
The work area and suite was a complete mess. The stylist didn’t use a cape while washing, styling, or cutting my hair. She wasn’t transparent about th...e price of the service charge. The profile says $60 my booking says $75. On top that in the back of my head the braids are in a big hump. Definitely NOT a $180 experience. I won’t be back and I wouldn’t recommend anyone going. This is ACTUALLY what the stylist said to me: Wow, So to begin I greatly apologize for you not enjoying your appointment. Especially when thats what i provide to everyone else if nothing else is an experience. My extra large private salon suite is for comfort. I put a lot into the comfortability of my clients. Yes it needed to be sweeped but a mess i cant see it. Maybe your looking for a space that isn't worked in. Nonetheless if there was a issue you could’ve said something before leaving. I could’ve worked it out for you im not rude. Im sure you can see that. Im very reasonable and respectful. From the moment you walked in your attitude & disposition was off. And yet i was very open to it. You were upset with a family issue not me. And trust im going to address every statement. As far as washing you i think i gave you a great shampoo. And even tips on your hair most girls use there phone so i dont put a cape on especially because you cant get to it and you were on the phone from start to finish upset about whatever was going on personally with you. But if it bothered you all you had to do was simply ask you didnt get wet at all because of the shape of the bowl. Then as far as doing your hair you were very unapproachable. To even break the ice i tried talking about nose rings. To see if it was you were just up tight or if it was just how you are. I did everything to get you out in time which i did. My other clients thought your hair was natural and cute and so did i. Every stylist is not fit for everyone. And as far as my price my quickweaves start at $75 & go up i have a teen special for $60 and up but if you look it says you booked when it was $75 + the plus sign means & up. You got a quickweave which for adults is $100 blunt cut is $15 and the included hair which was dream weaver was $70 so you add up your total. Im not un fair i know you couldn’t think hair included was free. No i didn’t respond to your text because i was busy. I have children something i noticed you don’t understand. You stated that in my suite multiple times, while on the phone that you have no kids and dont want any ever. But i have obligations i cant respond always especially to text calling is easier for me while working. In conclusion if you have a issue with a service speak on it then. Not bash someone when i was nothing but sweet to you. If you feel $180 is to much for my service when most so called stylist charge additional for shampooing and every step your hair was cared for protected and more. I dont get it. I also feel upset that you didn’t have a good experience but you made a bad experience for yourself you are complaining from top to bottom of the service without even saying anything during why not stop me. I hope you find a stylist that fits you and your expectations for a great experience because my clients enjoy my work conversation atmosphere styling services prices im one of the best priced. I use great products and my clients never go disappointed. So for that i feel sorry for you but im just not for you its a learning experience for me that when a client is not engaging its a issue address it or discontinue servicing. My parting advice get your hair done by someone who has all the expectations you are looking for ask these ?s before booking. You had a previous stylist for the up down maybe you should’ve stuck with her or maybe it was a issue. Or maybe your expectations are unrealistic. May God bless you sorry my best wasnt good enough. Thats all i have to offer. It wouldn’t let me comment everything on reply god bless. Show more
