My hair bang was visibly damaged by cold perm

Steer clear of this dishonest, unprofessional, and irresponsible business. Their services and pricing lack transparency. You can't find a price list anywhere in their store or on their website. I asked for a Brazilian blowout to achieve natural straightening with a C-curl at the tip of my hair. Their Chinese stylist, Sunny, claimed that their straightening services included two types: "Brazilian" and "smooth," priced at $280 and $320, respectively. However, when checking out, he charged me $320 for the "Brazilian service." It turned out that their "Brazilian service" is not the traditional Brazilian blowout, but rather a type of hair care treatment--because my hair wasn't straightened at all after the first wash. Worst of all, my hair was still frizzy as hell. The stylist, Sunny, told me that their coloring prices range from $130 to $180. I had medium-length hair and only requested single processing. Still, he charged me $180 at checkout. Even worse, since he didn't pay attention to the differences between my roots and ends and just applied color to all of my hair, the result was very uneven after the first rinse. He noticed this and applied color again to the roots, but after the second wash, both sides of my hair still showed different shades. He claimed it had something to do with my damaged hair texture. When I flew back to Taiwan and visited my long-term stylist, he discovered even more uneven coloring throughout my hair. Not to mention, I had specifically requested no hint of green in my hair--yet it clearly had a green tint, which my stylist confirmed. Sunny from DV Hair couldn't remember my request: no yellow, orange, red, or green--just ash brown; blue and purple were acceptable. When I confronted him about the failed coloring and held him accountable, he said that everyone else loved his services except me, and that I had too many requests. Frankly speaking, if you are unable to provide the service, you should simply turn it down. This kind of coloring job certainly doesn't deserve $180 (especially with no glaze or double processing involved). The method Sunny used to give a "natural curl" to my bangs was applying a cold perm solution. I noticed there was no heat process and immediately warned him that I couldn't use cold perm, as it usually damages my hair more. Sunny ignored my warning and proceeded with the cold perm anyway. After rinsing, it was obvious my bangs were damaged, and Sunny admitted it. Yet, he refused to take responsibility for his misjudgment and unprofessional services. The store owner, David (or DV), reviewed all my conversations with Sunny and checked the surveillance footage. Still, he claimed it was just my "subjective" opinion about the results. He ignored the facts: that they lied about offering a Brazilian blowout, failed at both perm and coloring, and charged inconsistent prices. If either Sunny or David had any professionalism or work ethic, they wouldn't have charged me $320 Brazilian + $180 coloring + $75 tips = $575 with no compensation. They did offer to fix my hair, but considering the unprofessional coloring and my damaged bangs, I no longer trusted them. Plus, I'm traveling until the end of summer, so it's not feasible for me to keep my hair that way. I've since asked my long-term stylist to fix it--and now I have straight hair with a C-curl at the ends, just like I originally requested. DV Hair doesn't take credit cards--only cash or Zelle. I'm glad I paid via Zelle so I have a transaction record. Since they refused to act professionally or take responsibility during our discussions, I intend to file a complaint with New York City and New York State consumer protection agencies to help mediate this issue. I strongly urge anyone to steer clear of this business. If you've unfortunately used their services, make sure to keep your payment records to protect yourself. I had faith in Sunny and David from DV Hair and tried to resolve this issue peacefully, assuming they would be professional and acknowledge their mistakes. However, they insisted everything was based on my subjective opinion and refused to admit their negligence or incompetence. Hence, I'm sharing my experience here to warn others.

David and his assistants are always on point with coloring my hair. First time it took awhile (10 hours) to bleach but that's because he had to do my whole head since my hair color grew out. He offers snacks, water and if needed some instant noodles! Don't ever expect a colorist to do exactly the color you want. It's all dependent on your hair color and how your hair takes to pulling in bleach. Also patience is key. He doesn't use high volume of bleach at once to make the process go faster. That will kill your hair. He's very patient with the process. Today I went for my second time to get out my at home overtone dye of pink and purple I did myself. The process this time was faster since my hair was already bleached from 3 months ago and he was able to get my pink and purple colors out as you can see. DM him on Instagram, he's quick to respond.

Balayage highlights

AMAZING service by David!! He was so attentive to detail and so willing to make some changes. I am obsessed with the haircut and my new bangs. Place is clean and neat. They even served out snacks and water. Balayage highlights was $350 and haircut was $50. I would definitely recommend and looking forward to coming back next time.

Sarina S.

David is really sweet and is really good at doing blended balayage. Balayage takes about 5 hrs, plan accordingly. I love the way my hair came out!

1st attempt
Karen C.

They fixed my hair! They were really nice about it and corrected the right color! Much appreciated.

It's difficult finding a good salon in Queens. I'm so glad I came across DV salon. David did such a great job with my hair. He gave me exactly what I wanted and more! I honestly couldn't be happier with the results David and his assistant were super friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

Balayage
Jennifer M.

Made an appointment through Yelp and David was very responsive. I was quoted $350 for a brown balayage in June 2022. I arrived at 1pm and didn't leave until 8:30pm. David was very professional and attentive throughout the whole process. He was also very hands-on even though he's the owner. I would definitely come back to support his business.

Melissa L.

Had the best experience at this salon! I came on a whim here based on previous yelp reviews and their instagram. I had previously died my virgin asian hair to a very blonde color and needed to color my roots. The estimated time was supposed to be 2-3 hours but ended up taking a bit longer than expected so plan accordingly! I wasn't bothered at all by it because they did such a good job not only coloring my roots but also giving me little snacks and water while I waited for my hair to be done. I had some discoloration as well on the ends of my hair from previous color that they had fixed as well. Will be coming back for sure! I would make sure to make a appointment as multiple people walked in but there wasn't any availability. They're very responsive on Yelp.

This was my first time in a while ever going to a hair salon. I made my appointment by yelp and…read morethey were very kind and flexible with their schedule! I was able to get an appointment afterschool the next day! When I walked into the salon, it was very comfortable and very cute! I was greeted kindly and they took my bag to a locker while I waited for the time of the appointment. Everyone was so kind and they took care of me nicely with respect and they were very gentle with everything and they did the exact haircut I wanted! I walked out very satisfied and I will be coming in for every future haircut! I would totally recommend to anyone that is looking for a new hair salon!!

From the moment I walked in I was greeted warmly by Nicole who immediately gathered my things and…read moreput them in a locker and gave me a nice robe. Everything was seamless and high quality service. I have Asian black hair naturally and went in wanting an espresso martini brown hair color (I had a picture and told them I didn't want bleach) plus a trim and the total came out to $250 total which I thought was a very reasonable price for cut and color with exceptional service! Also while waiting for the dye to settle in they gave me a nice soft donut pillow to hold my phone up and offered coffee, green tea or water with a little chocolate cookie snack. It's the little details that really up the quality! Jina did such an amazing job with the cut color and styling--very meticulous and professional--and the girl who washed my hair (I think her name was Iris) was great too. She really got in there with the scalp massage and they give a little eye shield so water doesn't splash into your eyes when the hair is being washed. Great spot!
