    The way it's threaded and shifted down
    Jodi S.

    All I can say is amazing.. it was my first time getting hair extensions and I was so nervous... Nikita made everything g perfect super friendly very nice person and made me feel comfortable. She taught me what to do to wash and clean ext. it was a fast painless experience and I get to keep my hair I am totally loving it and getting g used to it definitely something I think I want to keep doing all bc she made it so easy!!! Looking forward to my wedding and the amazing photos that will be taken. So adding to this review I was going to go in and talk but my husband told me to forget about it. My hair looked amazing for the big day. Worth it. I had to go in 3 times to have the extensions tightened bc the need feel off or the string came out. She fixed it no problem, but the time I got married 2 days after she tightened them they had broke off again. My hair stylist knew what she was doing so she was able to work around it. I kept my hair the same way through my honeymoon bc I though they would fall out. I was happy at first then disappointed o spent a lot of money thinking of these were done right I had them removed while on my honeymoon bc I just couldn't take it anymore. I have attached some photos good and bad. Sorry for the blast I was hoping they would last longer. She was super nice but I started out happy with them and didn't end up feeling so great about them.

    Nikita's Beauty Bar is an exceptionally clean and friendly beauty salon. The focus they put on taking temperatures, cleaning and distancing made me very comfortable. It felt great to leave with my new Zoom ready hairstyle. Ms. Shaw did an amazing job. I will definitely be back.

    Closure part needs some work to make it look more natural.

    I agreed to be the guinea pig amongst my girlfriends and try the Walk-In Weaves salon in CA. Maja Sly gained national attention for this concept of discount weaving by starring on the hit reality show Cutting It In The ATL. We were all curious when the first California location opened here in San Leandro. The Good: The stylists are all really friendly and professional. I decided to test the walk in concept and did not call ahead. I just showed up on a Saturday. And I didn't receive any grief for it. The salon owner was very accommodating and let me know about how long I'd have to wait to be serviced, which was about an hour. The salon was not upscale, but it was clean and nicely furnished. They sell hair in the shop, which is pretty good quality. They just don't have a range of textures to match Black hair. Just the expected body wave, loose wave, jheri and straight. The have a young lady that just does braiding, which seems efficient, but they should probably have two braisrrs if this is a part of their concept. The braider (Alysia) was pretty good. The Bad: The pricing gets a little confusing. It's kind of like Spirit Airline's, where the price initially seems low, but then you realize there's a separate charge for every aspect of your service, and you were better off just buying a ticket on Delta. To avoid the upcharges, I shampooed and conditioned my own hair before coming. I was quoted a package price of around $400 for two packs of hair, a closure and the install. $400 was more than I wanted to gamble on a test run, so I decided to skip the $100 closure and leave some hair out, noting that I wanted an off-center part. The stylist instructed the braider on the pattern to use to accommodate the style I wanted. The Ugly: After the braiding was complete, I hopped in the stylist's (Shandle) chair. She says instead of an off- center part, she would need to do a little gap in the hair. I didn't like that look at all. She said the only way I could do the part was to get the closure. So I decided to add the closure. She then said I didn't need two packs of hair, that only one pack would work. I trust and go with it. And she's trying to save me some money. What I didn't realize was that she would only be sewing tracks on every other braid. So now when I touch my hair, I feel braids. She didn't do the best job attaching the closure. And she weaved the right side too tight. You can see where my skin is being pulled. She decided to gel strands of hair down to my forehead, which looked horrible. And then there was a gob of the white gel just sitting in my hair. I asked her to clean that off of my hair and to unstick the strands from my head. She didn't get all of it. I was still scraping gel off when she asked me to get out of her chair to make way for her next customer. I think the owner could tell I wasn't completely happy. It's the worst weave I've ever received. Next Steps: I'll have to do some post install work before I'm happy going public with this look. Like coloring the knots in the closure and widening the part to make it look more natural. I'll likely add some tracks for fullness since my stylist was wrong. 1 pack clearly was not enough. I will also trim and color the net along the hairline to match my hair color so it doesn't look like...you know...a net. Recommend: Based on my experience...No.

    Do you guys do glue in weaves?

    I'm so sorry! 6 months old question, but, yes we do!

    PERFECTION. Needed a…read moresalon close to home (I typically.. get my hair cut and colored overseas) so I saw reviews on this place close to my house. I sent in a request on Yelp and they asked that I text/call a number. After some interactions through text, a picture of what I wanted, and instructions that I wanted a 1" trim from the bottom length and a relayer, I scheduled my appointment a few days later. This spot is VERY Chinese. Lots of banter in the language but I liked the energy it gave. A little bit of a language barrier but I tried to keep it short and brief, and we "communicated" through photos of what I wanted, and what he could do. Almost all the chairs were full. I brought my son with me and everyone was nice to him (-: He was able to sit on a chair and wait for me while I had my hair done. Ming gave me exactly what I wanted. Basically a refresh. They were able to shampoo and rinse my hair, I was put in the chair, Ming and I had an exchange, and he went to work with precision and expertise. QUICKLY may I add.. I found my local salon. I'll have to try color at some point. THANK YOU MING!

I showed him a pic of what I wanted and he also gave me his professional advice since my hair is very thin and sparse. I wanted to try out a u-shape with very few layers so my hair can retain the volume. The u-shape turned out a bit more v-shaped but it still looked good. Only thing I would say is that I wish they used heat protectant on my hair before straightening it, since my hair is already very damaged from bleaching in the past. Overall, I had a good experience.

I came in for a touch-up on my roots and I had blonde highlights, but they're pretty copper-brown now and the top of my hair looks like chunks of highlights. Thankfully, it's not as bad from the side, but I part my hair in the middle so it's all I can focus on. I tend to go to places based on personal recommendations, so I'm sad to say this will be my last time here. I will say, as I waited, I saw three young boys get their hair done; it seems like kids' cuts were $15 and they all looked good. However, for the $150 I spent, I would rather have spent a little more somewhere else to ensure I left feeling good about it. It was hard to tell in my chair and my booking was towards the end of the day; after about 3.5 hours, I didn't check it all there, otherwise I would have mentioned something in person.
