You can tell that they have passion for hair care, which is why I know that they'll get my hair in tip-top shape.

The whole session was therapeutic from the hair treatment to the makeup application. I will definitely be coming back!

Kevin washed my hair, and that alone was amazing he took his time, and even gave me a relaxing head and shoulder massage afterward (a lovely surprise!). I gave him a $40 tip because his service was so good. I also purchased my hair directly from the salon, and it's absolutely gorgeous!! super soft and high quality. I'm now on week 3 with my tape-ins, and they are still holding strong. What impressed me the most is how my hair has stayed straight all this time. Normally, my straightened hair lasts about 3 days max, but here it's been 3 week and it still looks great. I'm looking forward to my upcoming wash and straightening appointment. SP Hair Care has definitely earned a loyal client in me!

The use of natural products really stood out to me--I loved knowing that products used was high quality and environmentally conscious. A special thank you to Audrey, Laquay, Nakita and Instructor Tucker--they were all absolutely excellent! Their friendliness, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire experience enjoyable and relaxing. I truly appreciate the care and effort from the whole team. I highly recommend Aveda Hair School to anyone looking for great service in a positive and uplifting environment!

She respectful, pleasant and professional. I get a lot of compliments on hair after visiting the salon but most importantly my hair is healthy and growing. I've observed the interaction between the stylista and I love it. They don't compete they compliment and they help. The camaraderie is refreshing to see among the students and the instructors. I don't know who is in charge of the playlist but it adds to the vibe. Aveda is an excellent choice for hair care. See you next month :)

I'm coming off of a 7-month stretch between a chemical relaxer due to being mishandled and quite frankly traumatized by my last stylist (AVOID SP HairCare: decent results, with terrible professionalism). Thank God I like to maintain my own hair so I didn't walk into the studio necessarily in shambles. But I don't play around with strong chemicals and it was beyond time to go see a REAL professional. For some reason, there is a belief that Black/African-American hair can't be done at texturally diverse salons... WRONG!!! The experience started off wonderfully with a greeting from the host desk and an offering of tea, coffee, or water. I was relieved to see that the environment was neutrally colored, clean and organized (including the product display). The green wall behind the hostess stand is a beautiful touch. I was even more relieved to see that the bathroom was SPOTLESS. Junko is a medium-sized salon. There's only three wash stations and about 12-15ish stylist stations (iirc) neatly but closely arranged in the space. The stations are minimalist in nature and products/tools are brought out gradually on trays to minimize clutter -- I liked that. I came in at opening (10AM) on a Friday and I wasn't the only one. This place is probably packed during the weekend, but luckily they operate smoothly through a very efficient scheduling system. Deposits are required, non-refundable and are 30% of your estimated total. Payment was easy. Now let me tell you about Sharell. She is a multidisciplinary hair artist and master cosmetologist who used to own her own salon. Her passion for hair brought her out of retirement and into Junko. She has a calm, caring energy that makes you feel HELD. She can do any and everything -- I've seen the results! But she's especially passionate about given Black women better than what the "natural" salon industry has recently normalized (aesthetics over health). She loved that I asked questions and wanted to see me be knowledgeable about my own hair. We casually talked the entire time about life, but it wasn't forced. She also didn't forcefully upsell products or appointments, but the way she educates around hair prompts you to want more and better for yourself through gentle recommendations. Hair health IS a priority with her. She even apologized on behalf of the last stylist who did me dirty and didn't have to at all. AND she complimented me on how well I took care of my hair, instead of trying to manipulate me into wildly unnecessary services (*cough* SP HairCare). I left this salon feeling like a million bucks. I felt so relaxed and happy... which I realize is how you're supposed to feel! Other clients were also raving about their services during my appointment and it was nice seeing people and other staff so joyful. Now it did cost a pretty penny, but you have to be willing to invest in something as precious as your crown. I'm so so so excited to book again with Sharell and be back in the salon.

Unfortunately I have been really unhappy with my haircut since, here is the "after" photo taken on the day I got it. I don't understand the layer placement and haven't been able to style it to look normal. I've gotten comments about my layers and honestly have never gotten such a bad haircut... I showed inspiration photos and none of them looked remotely like this. Would be happy to speak with the salon about who performed the service. I don't want to make their name public because they were so nice.

She told me I'd be meeting with Hannah, and gave me a cup of coffee and led me to the chair. First off, Hannah made me feel super comfy, as I hadn't been to a salon in over 3 years. I have fine curly/coily hair I hacked while in lockdown, and Hannah fixed me riiiiight up. Quickly. With ease. Us curly folks already know the fears of salons, but Hannah was confident, super super sweet, and so good at what she does. The owner was there too, which I thought was really cool. Overall, I was made so welcome (even though I called literally 20 minutes before I came in), the salon was so cute and cozy, and I left feeling like a million bucks! Will so definitely be back to visit Hannah in a couple months for a trim and maybe some color! Her hair was the hottest pink, and inspired me to get some color goin again.

With that said, this review is strictly for the haircut (3/5) and the color is still a (5/5) Do your research on haircuts. I hadn't considered that everyone has a different cutting technique and the description of the haircut that you've been getting consistently with one stylist may not be interpreted the same way by another stylist :( After the initial cut, one side was about 1-2 inches shorter than the other side. So then the end result was my hair being much shorter than I wanted in the first place. Much of it was dry cutting which can be so hit or miss depending on the stylist, and some texturing at the ends (which to me just made it worse... I prefer thick sharp ends) Love the color and I kept saying that but haircut wise, the more I look at it the worse I feel about it and it just complete takes away from the color since I will prob keep it up until it grows out. In my opinion, It's shaggy and just does not look sleek like after past haircuts. Also peep the long forgotten piece of hair in the back (but the front is the shaggy part I don't like)
