I…read morecould immediately tell that she had quite the online presence because these ladies knew what they were cooking for and waisted no time grabbing them up and heading to the register. For the new consumer like me have no fear they have sample to smell the different options even though I was told what I saw was just a sampling and they have over 200 combinations to choose from. They will also allow you to come in Tuesday-Thursday and meet with a specialist that can help you choose the perfect blend for yourself or for others. I will definitely be back. For now I settled for Opulence body butter and oil and & Rich Auntie. Parris my specialist was very helpful and knowledgeable about my likes and naming them with choices she thought I would like.

There's a table at the front with various scent samples and a wheel with different fragrance notes to help you decide what scents you might like. The space is so relaxing, and there's a coffee station and bar cart, so you can sip while you shop. The highlight for me was the bathroom! The walls are filled with photos of beautiful black women, and the shelves are stocked with black woman owned products like Black Girl Sunscreen, Black Girl Vitamins, and perfumes like Ce Noir and Brown Girl Jane. It was honestly so inspiring to see all the beautiful and amazing products. I purchased a hair and body mist in Honeymoon, which is a blend of coconut and oud. It smells DIVINE!!

I get you want us to check out these products but perfume, make up, body products like thrown at you is a bit much! lol I almost forgot what I came in here for. Colorful, vibrant, organized and clean. Not too many were here at the time I chose to come so there weren't too many different scents lingering in the air. Focused on what I came in for I headed straight to the products I was looking for and made my way out! lol BEWARE beautiful gorgeous beauties you can easily get distracted here and these prices ADD up!

The store had a lot of offerings. Good part. I spent $122 on Kera Cares anti itch shampoo and condition, Nairobi Humectress, a braid Inc comb, silicone mix and she moisture shampoo. I usually spend $22 & $30 bucks on Kera Care through Amazon And I can def go to Target and still spend less.

Yesterday, while shopping in this store with my daughter I felt profiled. It was Sunday, so maybe it was the leggings and shirt that led the person who watched me and my daughter so closely to think that I should be watched...it was an uncomfortable experience. I only purchased a few items because I was in a time crunch but I wont be back. I have no need to spend my money at places where I am not treated fairly or where I am perceived as a "person to watch". I would avoid shopping here if you are a person of color there are plenty of other options. I will shop at another beauty supply store that does not perceive me as a problem customer. It was such a odd experience because the cashiers are people of color but perhaps the owners or other store employees still profile......
