I probably should not have selected the option of paying more to revisit my hairstyle because I…read morebasically knew what I wanted anyway. That's on me. The haircut I got was fine. But what makes me unwilling to ever go back, was how the payment process went. After I got the haircut, I went to the register. Instead of handing me the credit card device (think it's referred to as "toast" because that's the company that makes them), the woman held it away from me, and into an alcove where I couldn't reach it. She asked if I wanted to leave a tip, which of course I wanted to, but without handing me the device, she held her hand over 25% and asked rhetorically "25%? " I have to say, I've never been in that kind of situation before. That kind of high-pressure tactic was deeply unpleasant, and enough to alert people not to go to that salon, or at the very least, before you get to the register, make it clear you intend to have the device put in your hand.

The salon is shotgun style, so a very small waiting area in the front entry way of the shop, and…read moreopens up to the work stations and the back section are wash bowls and dryers. The shop is clean and has a quaint lil room with about 5 or so dryers, good part is the room does have a television. My hair experience was good. The stylist performed all my services, so her wash came with a decent about of muscle during my wash. I LOVE strong hands. She blew me out then flat ironed. Her process of flat ironing seemed to be longer then what I'm use to, and I wasn't even bone straight when I walked out. I was charged $75. I would definitely go back, but she would be my back up. And her prices for coloring are pretty costly $150+ for just tips on long hair.

My issue was a month ago a lady gave me a horrible sew in and caused an irritation on my scalp which in turn led to a scalp burn. Nonetheless I was determined to look good with my missing patch. I checked the cut life vehemently looking for stylists in the NY area because the salons that you see the most are in ATL. I was desperate but I wasn't that desperate to book a flight to get my hair done. All I know is that the lord also wanted me to look and feel good because he directed me to @hairhype_ insta page. I booked an appointment and the rest is history. The atmosphere of the salon is extremely welcoming, they play a plethora of music genres so that no one is left out. The only thing is that you must book an appointment. I do not believe they accept walk-ins as they are super booked up. I personally go to Gisele, she is my life saver and I am forever in her debt, however every professional that works there is talented. They don't settle for mediocrity, they go above and beyond every time. If you're thirsty or hungry, there are snacks and beverages that are there for you. Check them out!

If you're looking for a salon, Coiffed 220 is the place for you! The salon is a vibe: warm and welcoming, full of laugher, and calming! Dinah!

And I was so over the IG stylists that had thousands of followers but were underwhelming once you finally had an appointment. Not only is Dinah talented but she is so sweet, authentic, and informative. Dinah also gave me tips on how to care for my hair on my own. I cannot wait to go back.

Perfection perfection. I stumbled upon Colleen's on my way…read moreto another salon which shall not be named (check my reviews if you must know about *that* horror), and the prices lured me in. I hadn't been to a salon in over a year and I was craving a professional's touch. Jai is amazing. She took me as a walk-in even though she was slated to leave soon. She could've turned me away but she didn't. One hour and a cool conversation later, I walked out with my natural hair perfectly straightened and feather-light, AND with a sick trim! Moral: Jai is my new stylist. It has to happen. She has a gentle touch and she's great at what she does. Other stylists were installing weaves and experimenting with new weave color combinations, so it seems like an atmosphere for innovation and hair creativity. Very happy to have found Colleen's! I'll be back in September!

Before I give the details of my experience at Colleens House of Beauty first let me note that the…read moreaddress and telephone number listed on Yelp is INCORRECT. The correct address: 56 Willoughby St. Brooklyn, NY 11201 (2nd Floor), correct number: 718-625-3714. My overall experience at Colleens House of Beauty was pleasurable from beginning to end. I hadn't properly cared for my hair in months and my hair was in desperate need of revival. Her assistant started by thoroughly detangling my hair and was gentle throughout the entire process. I must say I truly appreciate her patience. Once my hair was detangled she put my hair under the water and began the shampooing/ conditioning process. Shortly after Colleen stepped in to blow dry, trim, and style my hair. I am truly satisfied with the finished look and would highly recommend anyone to this shop. PROS: *excellent customer service *clean and stylish ambiance *convenient location CONS: *none :)

My daughter has an upcoming sweet sixteen party today and I sent her to get knotless box braids…read morebased on the Yelp reviews. I am convinced that Mateya took advantage of my daughter given that she was 16. Because there is no way if I had accompanied her to the appointment that she could have left with her hair like that with a whopping charge of $185. I will pay any price to have my daughter's hair done as long as the person does a good job and this was horrible. She claims she used two packs of braids. Seems like she used only one. The braids are thin at the beginning and at the end looks like strings. There are some very thin tiny ones in the back. My daughter has a thick head of hair and these make her look like her hair is extremely thin. I am completely and utterly disappointed. My daughter this morning wants the braids out of her hair which we are going to take out.
