I hate that I have to write this review but it is needed for other lash artists who are interested…read morein working in this salon. Fantasi is very talented at what she does but to say that this is a positive working environment would be a lie. Fantasi is very unprofessional and passive-aggressive. I worked at the salon for 9 months and truly enjoyed working there initially. I learned a lot and gained experience, which I probably would not have if I did not come to work there. Fantasi trains her employees but only to a certain extent. She will train you and then when it is time to put what you have learned to work she wants to control when you can provide the service. She trained me on Microshading. Once, I started booking models, she blocked me from having access to the site and told me that she was not looking for a brow artist. She tells me this after I had already purchased almost $500 worth of equipment. I did not allow that to deter me because she is the owner. After a few days, her energy seemed a bit off. I did not pay it any mind because as a grown woman, I do not feed into attitudes. Fast forward to November 12, 2021, I attempted to log onto my account to confirm my clients for the next day. I was at that point blocked from the entire site. How do you block your employee from having access to their OWN CLIENTS! I texted her about the issue. Did not get a response. I followed up with her the next day and her response was, "oh we will talk about that". She never had a conversation with me. I left the salon for the day. Then I thought, this is not a working environment that I think I should continue working in so I decided to return to the salon and pack my things. At this point, she had not paid me, so I called her to obtain an update as to when I would receive my pay. She was a week late paying me, might I add. As an employer, your employees should never have to reach out to you to pay them. I called her in a professional manner to request an ETA on my pay. Guess what her response was? We need to talk about that because I want to know how you are going to pay for your training. I am shocked at this point because we never discussed me paying for training. Her response was, well I heard you were leaving the salon and you did not have a conversation with me, so you can pay for your training and subtract the cost of the kit and I will give you your certificate. Unprofessional right? She then goes down a long list of things I have done wrong. Why she would just now be bringing this up instead of addressing it when it happened, I do not know. I get to the salon to pack my things to find out that she had changed the locks and packed all of my things, without my permission and once again, without having a conversation with me. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL. As a business owner if you have someone working in your salon, how do you not communicate issues or concerns? Make it make sense. Then the next day, she called my clients confirming their appointments as if I would be at work that day. I had already contacted my clients to let them know that I would not be returning. VERY SNEAKY. I would not recommend working here. There is definitely more to the story but this seems to justify why it would not be a good idea to work there. All of this over some he say she say and her lack of effective communication. She also refused to refund MY clients for appointments they pre-booked to see me. She tried to use the non-refundable deposit policy as a reason why they could not be refunded. Very sad. I hope this helps someone who is interested in working here. For all of my clients, that I was not able to reach due to her blocking me, you can follow me on Instagram and book through the link in my bio! @taylahhdemiartistry
