Don't be fooled Ladies. My service I must said was the worst ever today! I was definitely overcharged for a blow dry and an horrible curl job, In my opinion they do not care, Harlet's is the only one I am sure with a license to provide hair services. Problem is there is no hair care there, they think all black women hair need the same temperature too much over hot curlers and very hot blow drying. They are unaware how or when to adjust the heat for different textures or hair. That is definitely a Problem. So where is the HAIR CARE? Who is training these no licensed girls doing hair. Today was my last time coming to Harlet's. Most are unprofessional they act like they do not understand when you tell them how you want your hair, or that the blow dryer is too hot or the curlers are burning your hair. I think OSHA need to check the standards of the practice there. All individual stylists or (so-call stylists) are responsible to have a Valid Cosmetology license and should be display visibly, the Owner (Harlet) is responsible. (How many of you have seen the licenses displayed for those that are working on your crown? Think about it! Do your research. read more

It's empty I'm happy about that hit I'll never be back the day the old fat lady decided to wash my forehead and barely my hair was insane then on top of that when I went to get my hair blow dried I'm 100% sure she burned my scalp twice. Then I usually pay 30 for a wash and blow dry today it was 42.00 0/10 would never recommend they truly suck . read more

Harlet's Hair Style - After getting my hair done for the Pistons game. I felt beautiful - Hair Salons Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

I strongly wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. If I could've have given them NO stars I would have. PSA: FOR ALL MY Natural HAIR SISTAS Warning, Waring, Warning I recently visited Harlet's hair located 5610 Springwells southwest Detroit. To get my hair blowout and curls, but my experience was disappointing. The stylist who washed and dried my hair applied some type of hair straightener without my consent--which is completely unacceptable. My hair texture was 4C and my coils were always very defined and curly. I had to cut quite a bit out just to get my hair healthy again. As someone who embraces my natural hair, I feel this was a deceptive practice that could cause long-term damage. This salon needs to be held accountable for such practices, and I strongly urge my black natural hair sisters to be cautious. Your crown is precious--protect it at all costs! Just do your research everyone cannot be making this stuff up. I truly believe that they are putting some type of texturizer or relaxer in their conditioner or shampoo during the washing process to make clients with kinky hair more manageable. PS! Also please do not trust those fake ass reviews. read more

They do a great job I just wish they offered hair steaming. My daughter has long thick hair and they get it super straight.

I don't usually leave reviews and this review is actually just for the owner Harlet and Harlet when you read this you'll know why it was written but, I'll refresh your memory I'm the customer you charged $72 the Thursday morning before Mother's day. I want you to know that God saw you and He saw you when you barely washed my hair and got offended when I asked you if you would mind rinsing the conditioner from the back of my head. I forgive you but, you should know you Will reap what you sow. I'm a child of The Most High God and He doesn't play about me and then you passed out your hand soap as gifts to all of the 5 customers in front of me at your register but,I had to ask for one. I'm guessing I remind you of someone or maybe you don't like women being cordial to your husband but; you know you were wrong! You'll definitely reap what you showed! read more

They no longer go in order of number pulled, stylist are rude and make unprofessional faces when speaking with them, the space is too small and it is always too much going on in the salon. Service not worth it. I will no longer get my hair done at this salon. Wishing them the best of luck in the future. read more

Very friendly and welcoming. Service is outstanding with an clean environment. Keep up the great work ladies read more

Harlet's Hair Style - Hair Salons Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

I used to come here a lot before 2020, I've only been once after. I decided to come in for a quick in and out service and I must say I am highly disappointed in the professionalism here. There's hardly any organization. The beauticians are all over the place. You used to could walk in and be done within 2-3 hours, Now it's taking 4-5. Not everyone does hair the same so you have to wait for a special beautician. I remember when all the women in the shop could do hair really good. After I got my hair washed, it was still itchy in some areas. I had to get my hair washed twice. I'm just overall not satisfied with my service today. I really wanted to walk out but I did not have another back up. read more

Harlet's Hair Style - Hair Salons Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Used to think highly of this place, until one of the stylist who flat irons burnt my hair in the back. From my nape up to 2 inch's up, fried n broken off. The back is your length. I have been growing my natural hair for 2 years, and just in one setting she ruined my progress, she lucky I didn't sue her or the owner Harlet!! Every women who come in there have different hair types, and the particular woman didn't adjust the temperature of the flat irons. I have naturally thin, curly 3C/4b hair. I literally had to tell the woman at station #2 short height, slender built with black shoulder length hair, to turn the flat irons down, she asked me WHY!! I told her because I can feel my hair breaking every time you run the flat iron through my hair!! The way she put heat, and strong pull down of the flat iron on my hair, is insane. I didn't even want to go to her, because I always noticed she does the ppl with short to damaged hair. I always preferred someone else, I never let her touch me before. I had a preference and they sent me to her. Hate or convenience I don't know! I don't go to them on a regular, only when my stylist is unavailable, biggest mistake EVER! Be careful with them. Definitely time to start checking for cosmetology licenses!!!!!! NEVER AGAIN read more

I have been to Harlots several times. Initially I was satisfied. However small occurrences became a huge. 1. Once, as I awaited to have my hair roller set, I took note of the posters lining the shop's walls. The women were all white women when most of Harlot's customers are not. 2. Harlot's mom can speak English but doesn't, to the non Latina customers. She simply points dark complexed women in what direction she wants you sit. She only speaks English at the end when she is accepting your payment she then asks in English if you would like to leave a tip It's like she has a quiet disdain for those with dark skin. Once she snatched money out of my hands as she over paid me, when all she had to do was ask. She was completely rude. 3. I was told those from the Dominican Republic have low self esteem for their own ethnicity and are color struck even today in 2024. They favor those with light skin and straight hair. Shortly after her Mom snatched the money, I learned my hair pattern had been damaged due to their use of very high heat used to straighten and curl your hair. Harlot's shop is one festering with discrimination of those with dark skin, and Afro textured hair. read more

Harlet's is a great place to get your hair done. However if you wait a while between washes or if your hair is really dirty I recommend washing your hair before you get there and then letting them wash it again when you get there. Harlet is the best stylist there however there is a few more that is good, there is a woman to the right of her that is excellent as well. Harlet doesn't say much she is very assertive she is not gentle but her work is beautiful. Everyone works hard but they speak another language so it's not easy to communicate Harlet understands and speaks English her son do as well. The next time I go I am going to wash my own hair at home then let them wash it again as I wait a month inbetween hairstyles bc they use a lot of heat great place for styling services read more

I will not come here again. I won't lie, the wash and hair drying was nice and the ticket system works but a hairstylist should know where their capabilities end. I gave a reference photo for a style that I wanted for prom and I specifically said that I wanted that done but IF they couldnt then I just wanted my hair curled yet they said they could. for reference, my style had a braid and some pinned up curls. what I got was a mess; a thin loose braid and hair all pinned up with NO curls out, despite the reference having most out in the back. it looks absolutely NOTHING like the reference and although I knew it wasn't going to look exactly the same, this is just an atrocious joke at this point, a waste of almost $100 that I probably could have done myself. read more

Almost everyone who works here are rude, especially the manager. I went to this place 3 times, and each time my hair texture changed. I didn't know until my hair changed drastically the 3rd time. They most definitely use some sort of relaxer. My hair has fallen out and broke off. Be careful my black queens read more

The one thing that is totally disgusting and nasty is the girls putting the handle of the flat iron between their legs as they are curling your hair. This is not freaking salon etiquette. and Harlet has been made aware of this on multiple occasions, yet she chooses not to correct it. I don't know if your monthly is on and even it isn't there is no way that you should be doing that. It's the girl at the last booth and the one kitty corner behind her. In addition, the other girl who speaks no English burnt my scalp with the blow dryer. Harlet needs to invest in sending them to cosmetology and take an English course. Most of them do not even have a license to do hair. I will be contacting the health department about the perm they put in the shampoo etc. Not to mention the FAT husband is rude as heck!!!! read more

My hair was straight but sweated out within forty-eight hours. Whatever those stylishs use in their hair to keep it straight without sweating would be better for the for your clients. read more

Great place for a silk press and bone straight hair!!! I love that it is affordable!!! The ladies are nice and professional and they treat everyone fairly. It is a first come and first serve business. My only problem is that they need to use more heat protection spray because my hair was smelling like burnt hair after wearing my hairstyle for a week. Everything else was wonderful! read more

I am from California, I am so happy I found this great salon. They are fast, and they got me hair bone straight. There is a lot of people getting there hair done, Men and Woman. When you first walk in. You have to walk to the front desk and get a number. read more

See all

Yeah they saved my hair did a good job no heat damage or color damage here very great people on my way to them now about to get another style read more

Great on the process of a hairdo, but a heat protectant is needed before flat ironing...FRFR

By far the worst barbershop in southwest detroit , I wouldn't recommend to anyone unless you wanna experience horrible customer service. Waited over a hour and still didn't get a haircut. I wouldn't even give them a half star. Terrible business. read more

My hair started falling out after I let them color it. I ended up having to cut about 10 inches of hair off initially followed by having to get it cut every time I got it done after that for two years. Worst decision I ever made letting them color my hair! I'm finally starting to retain length after 2.5 years. There is still some residual damage. Needless to say, if you go here DO NOT let them color your hair. Take your own shampoo and conditioner too because they are definitely putting some kind of straightener in them. Also, get a roller set instead of blow drying it straight. Otherwise, curls last for weeks! Still great people! Just understand they are more like apprentices than fully licensed cosmetologists. I believe Harlet is the only one. read more

***UPDATE*** All good things must come to an end: unfortunately like many other good businesses once they gain popularity they begin to display poor customer service. The husband is rude and they are but coming very petty with their policies. You can wait for over an hour and a half to get your hair done but if you step out in miss your number that's it and you can't have someone wait in your place. Clean, professional and inexpensive. It's like an assembly line for hair lol. Been coming about 5-6 months and my hair is healthier than when I started coming ~monthly. I'm usually only here 60-75 minutes. read more

I love coming here This salon does a really good job on my hair! I usually get a wash and blow dry curl only which is only $25. It is always packed, so my advice would be to come early. read more

Absolutely love this place. The staff really knows how to do the traditional Dominican Blowout. It takes me an hour to get there...so worth it. read more

Great quality. Service is hit or miss. I just started coming here. The line moves rather fast. So far, my hair has lasted 2 weeks. Two weeks for $35 is pretty good. Two things.. parking is to difficult. Customer service is okay. I came today to get my hair done. Made it by 6:03. Was told they're not accepting more people after 6:00. Do you know what I had just been doing for the last 5 minutes? Yup looking for parking. So of course wasting my time wouldn't get 5 stars but I still feel like it's a great place to get your hair done for a good price. read more

I can't say enough great things about this place. If you coming on a Friday or Saturday be prepared to wait, but the wait is worth it! The wash is EVERYTHING, lay back, close your eyes and enjoy it! Once you get your wash the process speeds up! They get your hair bone straight with the blow dryer . It's the best $35 I spend every 2 weeks. These ladies really know what they are doing read more

Very unprofessional, rude guy that works at the desk. Kicked everyone out of the shop because of one customer who simply wanted you to give out numbers to the people that were already waiting rather than skip those people and pass them out to the people who were just walking in, claiming that someone tried to fight him. There are better ways to handle customers, horrible customer service brought my daughter their for the first time after raving about how great the place was on previous visits. After today I will never come here again. read more

Love, love, love this place, hair will be so silky and straight for days. Sometimes there's a wait but they are efficient and it's definitely worth the wait! read more

No complaints here! I felt they were as friendly as you are to them!! Extremely pleased with the blow out and everyone in there appeared to have healthy hair. I will 100% be going back. I was in by 415 and out by 5! Probably should've got a trim, but it was my first time so so I wanted to see how it went first:) read more

Fast and affordable!! not the friendliest I walked in, a few of the ladies had sour looks on their face but I got there at 10 a.m walked out at 11:36 a.m, on a Wednesday morning, my hair is beautiful and I will come back. I got a blow dry/flat iron and curls at the end, if you want your hair bone straight this is the place to come. They would have gotten 5 stars but they didn't have the best attitudes. read more

Harlet's Hair Style - Hair Salons Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

It's like a workshop and not a beauty salon. The wait on the weekends is a 2 1/2 hour wait after getting a ticket. They don't do color on weekends, only weekdays and you have to come at 9am and call the day before. The women upstairs act very childish compared to the staff downstairs I believe it's because the owner is not watching them so they do whatever, how ever they want. Over all I can't stand this place and was trapped due to not being able to find another salon that does WOC hair for a fair price. read more

First off let me start by saying my hair is blowing in the wind and bone straight. My daughter and I arrived at 4:30 on a Friday and we were out by 6:00-Great right??? Now here is my issue...the folks at the salon are beyond rude. They dont even acknowledge you at all. One of the patrons informed me that I needed a ticket since the lady I asked completely ignored me and yes she spoke english-they all do! As a matter of fact they all speak english fluently but choose to speak in their native tounge. Due to the horrible customer service, lack of parking and less than desired location I have to give this place *** stars. On the flip side there is a great authentic mexican restaurant directly across the street and they have $5 margaritas but take the food to go reminds me of the movie Hostel. read more

This is my go to spot when I wait until the last minute and can't get in with my regular stylist. They serve customers with all different hair types and lengths. I have never seen anyone leave out without their hair looking significantly better than what it was before they got there. It is an assembly line and there is no personal service, which is one of the sacrifices you have to make in a place where the majority of the customers are walk-ins. You have to take a number and wait your turn. Be prepared to wait 2 hours or longer if you go on a Friday or Saturday. They accept credit cards. Prices are very reasonable. $35 for the basic wash, blow dry, and flat iron. read more

I'm very upset that I had been waiting here since 6:30 for there to be NO SIGN that they are closed until the 13 it's not 8:50 and we are JUST NOW finding out that's inconsiderate and just plain RUDE !!!! read more

I just love this place. I live in California and every time I come home to Detroit, this is one my first stops. They're quick, professional, and very reasonable with their prices which is unusual with hairstylists these days. They offer Dominican style (under the dryer) or blowout which is faster. The Dominican style is the healthier route but if you're in a hurry, their blowouts are equally amazing. read more

Burnt hair! the smell is obvious when you enter the shop, however with the prices and speed (a thing of the past) many ignore it or at least I did until I noticed the smelled lingered for days. Eventually I realized my curl pattern would not return and my hair stayed straight and limp even when wet. I went to a licensed beautician (not stylist) who informed me the hair would need to be cut, this opinion was seconded by one of the stylist at this shop. I will still go for a good wash and blow out when I need my ends trimmed however I am to traumatized to get a press. read more

All I have to say is that the result is worth the wait. I will definitely be coming here whenever I need my hair done and trimmed. So glad I found a Dominican hair spot in Detroit! read more

After my last visit, I will never go again. For one, there is a young lady that seems shy and quiet. She use always gather the towels but now she's washing hair (her teeth seem to stick out a lot and she wears glasses...she washes hair upstairs) She was beyond rough and I couldn't wait to get out of the chair. During my wash and conditioning, my hair started to itch and tingle a little bit. That was alarming for me thinking I might have reaction to their conditioner..I let it go just ready to get the hell out of there. Now as I'm paying another red flag was the pay. I pay between 35-55 for my hair just flat ironed straight which isn't a problem but why does the price continuously fluctuate???? So a week later, I go to wash my hair and I don't have a curl in sight from the root completely down....now I'm wondering did they sneak a little bit of relaxer in my hair. I told my niece about my experience and her hair is literally in the same condition as mine. I will never go back and now I'm currently transitioning my hair. P.S please know they talk about their black customers right in front of them by speaking by Spanish. read more
