    It's true!!!!!! Sheria helped me grow my hair back. I've always had thin hair, but 10+ yrs ago my hair really started thinning out. What happened? Stylist after stylist; product after product, and nothing helped. To make matters worse, I began getting my hair braided. Soon, I cut it short and began going in for my weekly burn out (blow out, press, and flat iron). I found Sheria on Yelp in Jan. 2020 and it was her pictures that convinced me to give her a chance. On my first visit we discussed my concerns, I shared my reasons my hair wouldn't grow back and I was really only there to maintain what I had left. Sheria quickly gave me hope and told me to trust the process. During the visit she talked me through everything she was doing; we discussed what she would do on future visits and she sent me home with maintenance tools. I did everything she told me to but I wasn't really expecting growth. To my surprise that is not what happened at all! After only seeing Sheria for 3 months the pandemic hit, and it put a halt to things. However, I continued to use the products she recommended and, my hair started to grow. In essence, the pandemic really helped me because I was able to slow down and be consistent with what was recommended. Now, I really didn't have any idea how bad my hair was until Sheria posted those pictures (see attached). When I saw the pictures I was really bothered. I couldn't believe my hair looked like that and I had been going to a stylist every two weeks and it hadn't been mentioned. I'm glad I told Sheria to take the pics because I wanted to help other women like the pics on Yelp had helped me. Sheria is not just a stylist, she's really into hair care! This is not a paid endorsement, and I wasn't asked to write a review. I tell Sheria all the time I would recommend ladies who are in need of special care, to go see her as long as I could keep my time slot because she is the truth! The shop: The shop is welcoming. You're not sitting around for hours waiting to be serviced, because she doesn't overbook. Her assistant Maritza is very nice, and the two of them work together to get you in and out. There's a hair braider Marie at the shop, I've watched her braid kid's hair and never seen them complain or cry. So, while you're being serviced your kids can also get serviced. Sheria also provides refreshments. Which is a plus!

    Before and after

    I've been coming to see Sheria for over 13 years and she has always cared about the health and integrity of my hair. Her hands work magic! I recently had a visit to the salon and my hair was damaged from years of bleaching (not done by her). She did a silk press, a conditioning treatment and a trim that had my hair feeling much better than it was before I came in. Over the years I have seen her transform peoples hair and help it grow. She is great at recommending ways to help improve your hair health and helping it grow. If you want someone who actually cares about your hair, make an appointment w/ Sheria!

    A person with short, curly purple hair is seated in the back seat of a vehicle, with their eyes closed and head tilted downward. The vehicle interior includes a headrest and a window showing a parking lot with several cars and a grassy area outside. The person is wearing a floral-patterned shirt, and sunlight is illuminating their hair and face.

    When I originally went to the salon, I was intrigued by the willingness to work with people with damaged hair! Prior to going to that salon my hair was natural for two years and it did have a bit of dryness so that first appointment she cut more off that I really thought she needed to cut off ...and she put a relaxer in and it looked OK. Fast forward a year I wanted to put some fun color in my hair and I explain to her that I wanted purple ...the month prior to getting the purple in the pictures , she had done this sort of maroon-ish color which is not what I asked for ...she told me to come back the following month and she do the purple the way I wanted to ...I came back she put the bleach in my hair or color corrector or whatever it was and I noticed when I got out of the bowl ( washing ) after they blow dried it ...my hair was fried and it was just falling out all over the apron and I thought that was odd ? When I got home I realized that chucks of hair had broke off .. under the 2 curls in the front of my hair , I had NO HAIR ... that was right before they shut down the country due to Covid .. so fast forward when they decided to open up the country and let people go to the barbers and stuff I went back to her shop told her what happened ...she turned around and said to me well you must've done something to your hair to make it fall out... I had four or five really bad patches of missing hair ... i'm not a hairdresser I have no idea how to use bleach and colors I have no idea how to mix those things....instead of her taking the responsibility for messing up my hair ...she blamed it on me ....that day when she did my hair she threw a little bit of relaxer in their and put her curling iron on low curled my hair so it look like I still had 4C hair and sent me out the door I haven't went back since then.... I will never recommend her to my friends and family ... even though her shop is beautiful ,it's in a great place ,in a great building ,it's clean ...I still would not recommend her to anybody because of what she did to me HydroCortizone and seabreeze will not fix your hair if something is wrong with your skin ,scalp, follicles or whatever ....she swears by that and it doesn't work ....it didn't work for me... so instead of her being a know it all, she should've found another solution if she was really concerned about a customers hair care.... Even if a response was offered I will not be bullied ! The response YOU posted is EXACTLY what I expected!! This is a review which I'm allowed to post ? This is my experience? And the fact that no one has marked " helpful or not helpful " I really don't think anyone has seen it ! Lol ... And if you have Cameras , then it should have recorded what YOU said about, " You must have done something to your hair !" And the Cameras will also show all the broke off bleached hair that was falling out the day you did the color ??? So look at that ? I refuse to go back and forth ? One bad review will not make or break you ! But, again I'm allowed to post a review of my experience.. please forward your attorney information to me so I can review, and forward to MY Council. My review is a synopsis and a shortened version of the events , my hair STILL has not recovered, but thank goodness I found a wonderful salon ‍ that will work with me biweekly to Strengthen my hair !!! And thanks for the " Be Blessed!" Words of encouragement, I appreciate that, I've AlWAYS been blessed and will continue to do so !i

    Products sold at the salon!! Sheria uses the best high quality products in order to maintain healthy hair.

I went to Hannah, who at first was okay but at my second to last appointment did an awful job. Before my hair mistake color wise, somehow she turned my hair green. That was fixed at the time but I ended up with what looked like a giant skunk stripe in my hair when it went up. I went through the process of calling and asking for it to be fixed, which is already super awkward but I paid for a service with a certain expectation, and they also naturally have you go back to the person who made the mistake which is again, awkward. She wasn't able to, or willing to, fix my hair, just made it a little less drastic and advised me to wear my hair in a totally new and different style than my norm because it would hide her error. She also then refused to dry it unless I wanted to pay for a separate blow out, so it wasn't as obvious to me how little she fixed since I left with damp hair. To lessen my confidence in her abilities, she also got a call from a client, which she took in front of me, where the client complained that she had missed a good amount of spots whilst dying her hair a few days prior. Not a good look overall. My new colorist was very polite in explaining how she'd have to fix my botched color but I'm still a bit salty about what I paid for what I got here.

Here is why: 1) I respect any woman who books all of her own appointments herself, washes and blowdries your hair herself, and then styles your hair. There was no shampoo assistant in other words. This is a very hardworking lady! 2) Shanni was warm, friendly, and professional without being 'over the top". She's a normal, chill woman earning a living. 3) Shanni has 1 stylists chair in her salon where YOU the client sit, while Shanni styles your hair. You can watch the tv she has on. Having the opportunity to sit one on one with her made me feel very comfortable. When you go to most salons you will see everyone in there getting their hair done. Shanni puts ALL of her FOCUS and ATTENTION on YOU during your time with her. I was AMAZED by this. 4) Shanni took her time braiding my hair for the weave install. This stylist took HOURS on my hair, and not once did she rush or burn me when using the flat iron. 5) Shanni provided me with a complimentary bottle of water upon request. 6) Her tone when speaking to me was very respectful and never dismissive. 7) My hair was done perfectly. My own husband could tell how pleased I was by the look on my face. I have had horrific experiences with other stylists. Shanni was truly a breath of fresh air! 8) Her skill level was top tier! The way in which she braided my hair and did the sew in was definitely customized to my head. Thank you Shanni! I can't wait to book again.

I moved to Odenton in July of 2017 and just now got a haircut! LOL I called at about 8:40 this morning, surprised to find that they open at 8. I asked for an appointment after noon, and she offered 1:30 - great. I did wait a few minutes for her to finish the client before me, but I could tell she really cares about giving the best possible result, which held true when she spent nearly an hour on my simple wash, cut & style. Sunny is just delightful to talk to, so I enjoyed my time in her chair. The only thing I specified was to keep my bangs just touching my eyebrows, and I am pleased with them being exactly right. I didn't give any other real direction, just shared that I don't like a lot of layers because I like to put my hair up when it gets hot. She told me, "You need a little bit of layers because it's thin," which is true and to which I agreed. Before the first cut, she held up the ends and showed me about 3/4" and said the splits needed that much to come off, and again I agreed. The end result, while not a style I can or would do myself except for special occasions (I don't curl my hair otherwise) is very flattering - my daughter and SIL said so! ;) I'll post an update in a couple of days, after I wash and blow-dry it myself - that is the real test, for me.

She makes me look good. I can't do that with very many stylists. I don't need to tell her which way my hair parts. She knows. She can feel my hair out.

They even tag-team it when they do permanent hair straightening (I like my waves and won't do it to my hair) but that is why it's cheaper than other places...because they're faster.
