After a not so great experience with another person in the area earlier in the year, I was on a mission to finding a stylist with Southern ties or training. I came across J'Monique Creations on Yelp, and was impressed by her work but most importantly her ties to GA. I reached out to her via email, and scheduled an appt via her website. Monique is a breath of fresh air from start to finish I'm extremely happy to have a stylist like her!!! She is extremely professional, genuine, patient, and most importantly slays hair (even 4 month quarantined hair, lol.) I really appreciate her attention to detail not only to my hair, but her steps to ensuring her shop is safe by social distancing, continuous sanitizing/sterilizing, and facial masks. If you're planning to contact her try text/call, she will see them sooner than an email yielding a quicker response. You won't be disappointed, I highly recommend!!!!

I have been seeing Delicia for my curly hair for almost 10 years now, and she is amazing. It is…read moreincredibly difficult to find a hair stylist who knows what they're doing when it comes to curly hair, and supports their clients in their hair journeys. Delicia does exactly that--she is able to give me the right cut for my curl pattern, answers my questions truthfully, provides hair care tips, and has guided me on my hair growth. We have also played with colors/highlights to accentuate my natural color, done curly extensions, twists, blow outs, and she's supported me in learning fun ways to style my natural curls. She has also styled my hair for multiple special occasions (graduation photos, vacations, birthdays, etc.). Every time I come in, she asks me first what I'd like to do--I show her inspo photos and we talk about it, then we come to a game plan for the appointment together. As she works, she checks in and lets me know if we need to adjust the plan at all based on what she's seeing/experiencing. She always asks me what I think at the end, and if I ever have a problem or something doesn't look quite right after my appointment, she is quick to fit me into her schedule and make adjustments to my hair as needed. I recommend Delicia to all my curly friends and anyone I meet who has curly hair. And the vibe of her space is amazing--lots of plants, good music, great conversation, and overall very comfortable. You can't go wrong with Delicia.

Delicia has been my loc-doctor since late 2018 as I Ioved the wonderful job she did on my…read moredaughter's braids . Before working with Delicia , I had strictly done free form locs for about 4 years and then started getting regular loc maintenance and styles from other clinicians . What I found when working with others is that they never took into account my active lifestyle as a sports performance coach and personal trainer, so it was very difficult for me to enjoy my re-twist as they would unravel the minute I needed to shower ( which is often ) . I addressed this dilemma with Delicia when I first met her and said "I need a technique that allows me to hop in the shower whenever I want , but allows me to keep the 'look' of newly twisted hair " . I was blown away by her twisting technique as I was literally able to do whatever I wanted physically without fear of my hair coming unraveled and I looked just as good following several showers . To top it off she occasionally gives me a "style" along with my twist and the things she can do with my hair are truly unmatched ... she is a wizard with her hands and I feel honored every time I sit in her chair . Her studio is clean , beautifully organized and well lit . It is simply immaculate Delicia is not only a brilliant stylist, but a real person who can talk about anything . She also has great Taste in music which is a plus .So It goes with out saying ( but I will say it anyway ) ,I highly recommend her. I know she does other amazing stuff with all types of hair , but if you have locs , do the right thing and go to Sweet Melanin Salon ! Brian S . Edmonds WA

Her salon is very clean and masks are required. Rachel gave me an incredible Brazilian Blowout. I've been getting this service done for years, and Rachel is by far the best. My hair is smooth, shiny, and feels so good, and thanks to Rachel, no more split ends -- she gave me a nice trim, too! Rachel is kind, communicative, and took the time to understand what I wanted. She's very laid back and didn't force conversation. Thankful for such a relaxing experience! I'll definitely be back.

She was a joy to work with, knowledgable, and so nice. I immediately felt welcomed and at ease. Looking forward to visiting again!

Her painstaking work--taking…read moreher time--rectified a series of mistakes from hasty and hyped hairstylists I had in LA which left my hair in shambles. The care she took in working around the head in previously mismanaged spots, and her eye for balancing the various aspects of the overall hairstyle is so refreshing. She is the opposite of bragadoccio hairstylists with affectations of flourish and swagger, which in the end turns out to be vaccuous. Alina's training and years of experience will highly benefit you if you want a style that will work with your face and your hair styling preferences. When I say I've been burned by overhyped hairstylists in LA, believe me, it was a demoralizing and violating experience. Alina fixed this situation with a calm, empathic, and highly skilled manner. Moreover, she took the time to sit me in her chair and do a full proper consultation ahead of time, and listen and observe my concerns. We scheduled an appointment for a week later, and when I came in she again went over the strategy and took her time to cut my hair with a practiced expertise. I cannot recommend her more highly. She sits in a studio space shared by multiple hair stylists each with their own working studio. A great location in downtown Edmonds, so you can grab a drink at a nearby tavern or restaurant after you are freshly cut.

She took me from 4 colors to mocha brown and healthier hair. :) hope to see her in a few months when my hair has calmed down to do another service with her. I can't thank her enough.
