She scratched My scalp.

Any establishment being open on a Sunday, that caters to the working class is the reason I've given them 2 chances. HOWEVER, the lack of integrity- towards Your own and judging based off hair or "what You don't want to do/what You do for a living"... is why I'm writing this. The owner, I presume, assumed My hair wasn't able to be put in rollers. This is the SECOND time I've give her the opportunity to give My hair the love it needed. I expressed this to her as well! She giggled. To which i hoped she would take that as an opportunity to "provide the best customer service". When she washed My hair... very ruff! Again, my hair needed the wash... so I dealt with it. But she scratched My scalp. Then it came time for rollers.... My length isn't the longest- yet, much longer than some others. Being from where I am- Im well educated on wash & sets as well as which rollers fit in my hair. So i specifically requested a particular color roller. Based off of that color roller- the parts can not be as big as other roller colors. She parted big the second roller attempt she began to get frustrated and pulled them out my hair, "it's not staying- it's not staying". She lacked effort! I explained to her that I needed a certain color. She claimed she tried it all... BS.! She chatted her nonsense rudely about how she been doing for a living blah blah blah. This is when I decided I was going to YELP. Eventually, as they did to Me My 1st visit- LITTLE BUNS IN MY HAIR!!! not to mention... it took My hair almost 2hrs to dry because of her lack of effort & professionalism! When time to pay, she said "You good!" While opening the door. Now... ok "I got my hair washed for free" but not leaving with what I left My home for on My self care day... is what's ridiculous. I do not appreciate nor respect when My own people forget where and why they're in business. I expect better. Not to be judged. The job was not executed... as a customer I AM NOT SATISFIED. Never bully a client to blow dry their hair when They say they do not want to. Because you're lazy!

Post blow out.

Found out about this place on YELP. The staff at Merengue were very friendly and I felt at ease. They did a thorough job of washing my hair as I suffer from dry scalp. Lasha was very knowledgeable and told me how to care for my hair and steps she'd take to nurse it back to health. 10/10 would recommend. My hair looks FABULOUS.

I have really curly hair and it's very thick and the truth is, most places around here (at least the ones I've been to) don't know how to handle it. The last lady kinda panicked after she washed my hair and noticed how thick and curly it really is. But at Merengue Hair Studio, they knew exactly how to tame these curls. It's been along time since I cut my hair cause I just didn't trust anyone to do it right. I'm glad I came here and Lasha did an amazing job! Love the atmosphere, love the stylists, love the Latin vibe. I feel good with my new look for my graduation :)

Let me start off by saying I am extremely picky! I found this business on Yelp and am proud to say....I am very happy with my hair!! My stylist was Juana today. From beginning to end she was professional, consultative, and accommodating. I got a color, cut, and style and I absolutely love my hair. No burning my scalp or cutting too much... I will be bringing my daughter back this weekend. I highly recommend this salon for an authentic Dominican blow out. Thanks Juana!!

HORRIBLE, WORST hair cut OF MY LIFEEEEE!!!! i wouldn't recommend this trash ass place to anyone!

If i can give 0 stars i would! I had long hair and decided i wanted a cut. I wanted to try something new a short cut above the shoulder even style .... the owner seemed to know what she was saying although she was very rude for calling me a ass kisser(lambona in spanish basically dominican bc i don't use that word) im sure she didn't think much of it when she said it but i don't fuckin know her for her to feel intitled to call me anything buuut reason for her even saying that was bc i had asked how much did they charge for color since i saw one of her coworkers hair color and i liked it .... i still stayed (i wanted to leave) but already in the seat she started cutting .... seemed to know what she was doing like i said ... the end result were HORRIBLE, WORST hair cut OF MY LIFEEEEE!!!! never again will i go there and now i'm stuck with a piece of Shit hair cut until my hair grows out. Im sooo disappointed in the outcome i wish i woulda jst walked out when i heard her talking... i wouldn't recommend this trash ass place to anyone!

Being a Cali native myself, the name intrigued me. I later found out the owner is from Cali also…read moreand often travels to and from there to here. They prefer appointments, but will take walk-ins (be mindful that priority will always go to appointment clients) I wanted to do a walk in, but ended up setting a same day appointment, only 2 hours after I made the call, so it a doable wait time. I ate lunch and had a nap before coming in, so it was already leading up to a nice chill day. My stylist was an older lady, and she was very pleasant, quick nimble with the scissors and mostly styled my hair with just her hands (I have natural waves) and used very little product. And my hair turned out better than I expected. I basically got a wolf cut with soft layers. As we talked, I found out she's had a collective of over 30 years experience cutting hair both abroad and here In the states. I can really appreciate the service she gave along with her pleasant demeanor during the whole experience I had. My husband ended up going there to get his hair cut a few days later...and I was happy with what they did to his hair as well. Very clean and styled in a way that suits his face and head shape. Not just a cookie cutter hairstyle that looks the same on everyone. This one really flattered his specific look and personality. The only downside is parking on a busy day, the lot is small and right up near a busy street. So I understand why they encourage appointments, to keep the parking lot from being crowded. So it seems like they already put some consideration into setting up a good experience for their clientele. I look forward to visiting them again in the future for a color job I want to try. All I wanted this time around was a wash, cut and style and it was decently priced and professionally done in a relatively short amount of time. Always tip your stylist, especially if you can't stop smiling at what a great job they did. thanks for the amazing service!

Very professional and friendly with everyone. Treats you with care and like afamily. Everyone of…read morethe staff are nice and friendly. I would not go anywhere else. My grand babies love having their hair cut. Sonny and Tommy are the best and everyone of their staff. I've seen almost everyone one of the staff and they're all excellent hairstylist and cutter. The prices are reasonable. They are very flexible with schedules. I love them.

Thank God for people and leaders like Elissa (owner) of Elle Madison!! I had my first appointment…read morewith her to try and get a color that I really wanted and she made it happen! I had went in on a Friday at 6pm and we both didn't leave the salon until 1am because of the process and how much hair I have!! I felt horrible that I kept her there that late and for so many hours but that is a true definition of a hard worker and leader! She is much appreciated for the time she spent on me! My hair is exactly what I wanted, and she made sure to make it happen even if it took 7 hours . This salon is by far the best salon I have been to in Virginia Beach! Elissa has picked some of the best stylist on her team and give them 10 thumbs up! I have done a color with Kim as well and came out amazing!

This adorable salon is in a convenient location, the physical address is in an easy to reach area…read morewith lots of available parking. The workers are extremely sweet, and super kind. They accepted me with my baby and were extremely welcoming and supportive. Jennifer did an amazing job with my hair and showed so much patience, she had a crazy product to work with but gave me an amazing outcome! Tip for this place they are by appointment only so make sure to contact them through their Facebook page to book an appointment. This is a little more time consuming due to not just being able to call for availabilities or just randomly show for a haircut, however the results they give are extremely worth the effort. Would completely recommend!
