I should mention that my hair is naturally Penn Street, but they were able to get it to curl despite the fact that it was really humid that day ( it was raining outside ) and straight pr curly, it looks amazing. I highly recommend them! Update: my curls lasted 3 days, and I washed and air dried my hair today and the cut still looks great! Also, the conditioning treatment I did in my hair must have worked because my hair is so soft!! My hair is naturally straight and it's been humid (it was actually raining the day I got my hair done), so I was very impressed that the curls stayed!

My friend and I were going to be in town for a black-tie wedding and we decided to treat ourselves…read moreto getting our hair and makeup done. After doing some research on Yelp, I found In Touch. I contacted Cherry and made an appointment. Cherry suggested we send her photos of our intended hairstyles and makeup in advance . I didn't wash my hair before hand, which worked out because it was the best shampoo and head & neck massage I've ever had. We were very pleased with Cherry's attention to detail and her workmanship was top notch! We both received many compliments on our looks! Many thanks to to Cherry and her team!

It pains me to write a negative review for this salon because I had high hopes and great…read moreexpectations, but left my first appointment knowing I would never come back. Several weeks ago I went in for a flat twist up-do on my natural hair, which measures about eight inches when stretched. After a year of maintaining my hair without the help of a salon (I BC'd in June '11) I decided to give a "professional" the opportunity to style my mane. When I sat down in my stylist's chair (I won't mention her name here), I felt confident my hair was in good hands. Her fro looked well moisturized, had a nice shape, and her edges were full. Before she did anything she gave me a quick consultation...this is when the red flags should have popped up. I told her what products I use regularly (kinky-curly, aubrey organics, shea moisture, ect). She boldly put down all the products I mentioned, and instead endorsed the salon's products. This was off putting because 1) My hair responds well to what I use, and I have no intention of changing them and 2) It was obvious she was just trying to make an extra buck. After her endorsement, she decided to go ahead and criticize my hair. First, she didn't like how I had prepared my hair ahead of time (wash, condition, detangle, and blow dry). I wanted to do this myself because I'm selective about the products I use and because I don't like anyone ripping through my hair unnecessarily. She told me she wished I had let the her give me the "full oxsun meji experience." Even though I explained my reasonings for wanting to prep my hair beforehand she kept repeating the same thing to me. I even counted...she mentioned this eight times total. Damn. I understand that everyone is struggling right now but I don't need to feel like I'm obligated to spend money for services I can just do at home. To top this whole thing off, she explained that my hair wasn't blown out well enough and that she would need to go over it a second time. I asked her if she had a heat protectant. She had the audacity to tell me I didn't need one because since I don't blow dry my hair often, my hair wouldn't be damaged after doing it one time. REALLY THOUGH? Where is she getting her information from? The only reason I let her proceed at that point was because I just really wanted to get my hair styled for an event that night. I knew it was too late to make an appointment anywhere else and I didn't have time to do it myself. In the end, my hair did end up looking nice. The flat twists were neatly done and weren't done tightly (I am tenderheaded, so this was a plus for me). Also, the salon is really clean and has a relaxing zen like vibe. I'd also like to add that the owner is very talented with locing and loc maintenance. So she's definitely worth a try if you wear locs. Otherwise go elsewhere (are there ANY good natural hair salons in Phili for non loc wearers? Yelp says no. I'm pretty certain of it too). Or just step up your style game. Sigh...guess I'll be wasting a lot more time than I already do on YouTube and Curlynikki.

Full discretion I had never had my hair touched by anyone other than my mother so with that being…read moresaid I had never actually been to a salon so I was incredibly nervous. I did my research and I wanted a salon that specialized in Natural Hair specifically one that doesn't have a problem dying it as well. I found Oxsun through its website and it seemed like a promising fit. I went in just wanting to get my at home dye job revamped because quite frankly it looked like I dyed it at home. The first thing I liked was the consultation anyone who asking me individual questions about my hair before using product on it makes me more comfortable that I am getting the experience I need and not just the one I wanted. After telling her that I was only a year and some change natural (BC 06/4/12) she made recommendations that made sense for me. We setup a deep conditioning, my ends being clipped, and I got my first twist out. The environment was great everyone was friendly and I felt like I was amongst family with interest i got lots of helpful tips for my hair and didn't feel forced persuaded to buy anything I didn't want to. The service was fairly priced and I did make an appointment to return again as I think this is where I will go for my hair maintenance from this point forward. P.S the picture I am using for my profile is the picture of the twist out following my visit. For the weeks afterward I got tons of compliments on how healthy and soft my hair was!

I have since moved from the area and come back here just to get my hair done, because no one else is able to match the quality of the salon, staff, training, etc. 5/5 I don't trust anyone else with my hair but their team!!

I saw there was a groupon and I thought "even betta!" Everyone was very friendly, and helpful from the over the phone service to the way they handled my hair. And they have women who really do EVERYTHING here from natural, to perm. And dont be scared if your natural because these ladies do their thing, and if you have an issue with anything they will have no problem doing something you asked. They only reason I didn't give and extra star is because I didn't really care for the way my hair was blow-dried and because I didn't have a heat protectant before blowdrying. I don't get my hair straightened that often, and nor did some of the women who were in the salon. But everyone who was in there had at least shoulder length hair, that says something! I already scheduled my next appointment, and you should too!
