Seriously, if you're having a bad day, you can go here and relax while your hair gets washed and your scalp gets massaged. Umm YES SIGN ME UP! Usually, booking an appointment is recommended. But I got very lucky when I called and was given a time slot for same-day service. Ha, the owner of the business, is so sweet and courteous. She takes the time to listen to your needs, and educate you based on the condition of your nails so you can make an informed decision about which service is best for you. The salon has a wide variety of colors, including chrome, and has swatches of nail art options. The establishment is clean, and proper 'Rona precautions are in place. Prior to service, you're asked to wash your hands. Ha and I got lost in conversation (which I personally like because she is a treasure) and I immediately trusted her enough to say, "okay pick the color and do whatever you want." She did not disappoint. I wanted festive chic, and well the photo speaks for itself. I was very happy with my service, and am so excited that I can simply go to a salon now and have "surprise me" nails based on how I'm feeling. I think this is the last nail salon I will ever review because I'm marrying this salon. If I ever leave the state, I'm taking Ha with me. Sorry not sorry.

I've been to 6salon, Alchemy Color Lab, everywhere. Now, I've got thick, straight, black Asian hair. I've been blonde to the root for about three years now. After the 100th disappointing and overcharged hair appointment left my root brassy and chunky, I decided it was time for a change. Peter at New U2 is a godsend. He told me he worked in New York for 15 years before moving to Michigan. I have no idea why he would make that move, but I sure am glad that he did! He and Jake spent 5.5 hours sectioning, foiling, toning, washing, cutting, and drying my hair. It usually wouldn't take that long, but I had grown out my black roots for like. Four months (yeah, I know). After drying, they went through the trouble of touching up and toning some spots that I didn't even notice, so they did the wash/dry cycle one extra time just to be thorough. I also had a brassy band coming in from my last appointment, so they had to figure out bleaching and toning and blending the root from black to brassy to blonde. Not an easy task! All in all, I was pleasantly surprised. This appointment also cost less than my last one, where they did a worse job. They speak Mandarin and Cantonese and English, of course. I can't recommend them enough!

Stronghold has been a great new presence in the Royal Oak area, and though there are lots of barber shops to choose from in Metro Detroit, you're not going to want to miss this one. The interior is super clean, with a chill vibe and I believe they offer some coffee/ other drinks as well. The barbers are friendly and the atmosphere inside is always inviting. The website is easy to use and it's usually not a problem to find an appointment that works well with your schedule. Specifically, I'd recommend Tee -- he's been cutting my hair for 3+ years and has been a rockstar in that time -- always looking out for my best interest and he knows exactly what will work for each cut. If there was a rank higher than 5 stars, it'd be awarded to Tee. Overall, if you're looking for a new barber shops and you're anywhere near Royal Oak... Stronghold should be high on your list to check out.

However, the primary reason my experience is always excellent at Union is Tee -- he consistently provides an awesome haircut, great conversation, and makes the process seamless. I've been getting my hair cut by Tee for about 5 years now, and I can confidently say that I'll always trust Tee to give me an excellent cut. I've since moved further away, and my drive to the shop is an hour, but it's worth it to know I'm always going to get the same consistent experience, professionalism, and be able to catch up with Tee. After all this time, Tee knows my preferred style without asking any questions, and also knows how to adapt to however my hair decides to behave on the day of (even when I end up missing a couple weeks and going longer between cuts. I can confidently say that I recommend Tee to anyone looking for an awesome haircut in Ferndale!

Rufus was super friendly and it was fun to watch him interact with all of the customers like he's known them 20 years. Hell, maybe he has. Who knows. It just felt very comfortable and welcoming inside the shop as we waited for my son's turn. Rufus helped me use Cash App to pay him which was super convenient so I wouldn't have to hit up an ATM. The price was reasonable and he really did such a great job on my son's hair!

One braider finally got started around 10:00. I wanted the color 1 hair she said they only had 1B. Although I never get 1B I agreed. After 1 hour and a half another braider started in the back she was moving fast so I actually should have known she was putting super large parts in the back. Then I could not understand why my braids was so tight! I've worn Knotless braids for over five years now they have never hurt. They are weightless and not supposed to hurt. Come to find out they did not do knotless braids at all they put box braids in my head. Knotless braids starts with your natural hair they started braiding with weave. I asked for waist length the braids are uneven and pass my butt. The front of my head although it's sore looks okay but the back is horrible. I asked for small knotless so why would I want huge box braids or large horrible parts In the back of my head. $230.00 and hours I wasted at this place.
