Out the shower no product
Que C.

I had the Gina curl on June 9th and it was absolutely amazing experience. I have very thick long 4c hair so I wanted a treatment that would ease my patience. My hair is color treated. So I did take the risk in doing this treatment. They are very nice and made me comfortable in there. The place is very clean and I love how my hair turned out. My hair did take about 8.5 hours due to my hair. I traveled all the way from Texas and it was worth every penny. I have added some pics. After three days of my Gina curl I washed my hair. It was so easy literally took my 20 minutes. Is used the tgin sulfate hydrating shampoo and conditioner. The first three pics are pics out the shower. The tree pics after where the curl is more defined I added my leave in conditioner only. The last pic is letting my hair air dried with the leave in conditioner. If you want to see more pics on my insta story you can see at IslandgyalQ.

This is very disappointing to have to write because I had been going to Gina for years but I think that it is important to let everyone know that this company and it's personnel only care about your money. I attended the Hairs Talent Texas trip and my appointment was for the 7th of December. Me, my toddler and my partner traveled over 12 hours to Gianna in Houston. With services, travel fees and lodging, I spent well over $1,500. I arrived to Gianna on the day of my appointment with hopes that she would perform the straight variation beautifully on my hair as she had done a year and a half before (picture labeled #1). That day, she was a little upset that I didn't allow her to do the Gina curl on my hair because she was unaware that I booked for the GSV so she came unprepared. I had no idea that she was discussing to Gina that she was embarrassed to have to ask people around the shop for a flat iron and blow dryer because I didn't want the Gina curl so I don't know if the next part of my story was because she was upset with me or not but my trip ended with me in tears. For over 5 hours, I sat in the salon that she used feeling uncomfortable because they kept making comments about "black hair" but I felt that as long as I had Gianna there, everything would be alright. It was obvious that the chosen salon was not diverse. Fast forward, in (pictures labeled #2), Gianna clipped my ends because she said it had been a long time since my last GSV to which I understood. I don't know how I went from picture #1 to pictures #2 so fast and I was a little disappointed with my length check afterwards but I thought that it was what was best for my hair. Gianna was running a little behind during my appointment and needed to take another client so I waited 1 1/2 hours for her to finish my hair. I returned to the salon to which she told me that she needed to continue to clip my ends. I wasn't so happy with a second clipping but she told me that if I didn't agree, I'd have to sign a waiver because my hair would fall out. This resorted in (pictures labeled #3) when I looked up to see the final results of my hair. I cried because I couldn't believe that she had chopped all of my hair off and the only thing she kept saying was that it would grown back, my hair was beautiful and I could get extensions if needed. Due to me crying, she said that we should go outside to talk about it. Embarrassed, I walked outside to sit on the nearest bench and overheard Gianna mocking me to another male client before saying "oh well" and going back inside to finish her next client. I sat and cried in my vehicle at the unprofessionalism and lack of empathy from Gianna so my partner went inside to see if there was some sort of compensation that could be made for cutting off my hair. Gianna stepped back outside and told me that I had 3 minutes to talk to her. My mom was on FaceTime and had to demand more talking time to try and explain where Gianna went wrong. Gianna said that the only thing she would do was put my clipped hair in a bag and send it back home with me. When my partner went back inside to get the "bag of clipped hair" Gianna was inside laughing at the situation with the rest of the stylists before pointing to the ground where the rest of my hair was that she had not thrown away, demanding my partner to pick it all up from the ground. Gina decided to call me to let me know that "maybe the cut was needed" and the only thing that she could offer me was a free protein treatment to which I never received. My mom tried reaching out for a refund because Hairs talent unfollowed me on social media but they blocked all of my mom's accounts, deleted her comments and never responded to any of her emails (pictures attached). My family and myself are very upset to see that they would rather lose a relationship with a loyal client than to try and rectify what went wrong. I had to go through my bank for a refund. Be careful, these companies only care about your money. She deletes reviews off of Google but I've copied and pasted it all to my iphone notes because I will not stop letting the world know how evil and money driven Hairs Talent is.

This is my daughter's hair before going to Houston to have it styled. Long and down her back.

Had my first cut here yesterday. The vibe is really friendly, open, and cool, with the staff…read morelaughing and having fun with each other and the customers. I didn't realize how unhappy I was with the vibe at my old barber until I stepped through the door here and felt right at home. Everybody actually enjoys being here, and that's contagious. Ethan did my cut, and he was super nice about talking it through with me before getting going, and spent time getting it exactly right, and even helping me out with styling pointers. I was happy with the cuts (if not the vibe) at my prior place, but now that I've had a chance to wash it, style it myself, and wear it for the day, it's definitely a cut above (pardon the pun) what I was getting at my prior place. Can't recommend him highly enough. Just an A+ across the board for making a new customer feel welcome, having a great environment, and giving a great haircut. Oh yeah, and it was $5 less for the cut than I was paying at my last place to boot.

I had gone to see Vanessa initially in New Haven, since then she tranfered to Norgh Haven because…read moreshe is experienced with curly hair. I had seen her a few times, then paused. The haircuts were good, so I kept coming back to her. Tuesdays her prices were $40, which was affordable, now I find out that it has increased exponentially to $100! It is not within my budget, and they don't offer senior discounts either. The service responses are automated as well.I WAS a client, not any longer.

So I went in a few days ago and was unhappy with my hair, but I think there were a lot of things…read morethat was accidentally miscommunicated. I went in again today, and Erin fixed my hair (free of charge) and it looks absolutely amazing. The roots are blended perfectly, and my root touch up looks so perfect and it is blended seamlessly. She also gave me a free blow out, which she absolutely did not need to, but she did and my hair just looks so great! I am more than happy with it. I also did the conditioning treatment, which revitalized my dead hair. Overall, I would highly recommend Salon J and especially Erin. I have always loved her haircuts, and I'm now happy that I can confidently endorse her hair dyeing and root touch ups as well. I used to go to New York to get my hair done, and my only regret is that I didn't go to Erin earlier. I'll miss her and amazing hair cutting/dyeing!

So so disappointed and unflattering on me. I hate being seen in public with this hair that cost over $300.
