I've been to Vheekie's twice & didn't have any issues, besides her wasting my time on one occasion, when she told me to come at a certain time to fix 2 braids that fell out, & she wasn't home. I took an Uber there, and had to take an Uber right back home. Then had to return a second time! This time around I had an appt. on Thur, Aug 20 @4:30pm. Let me be honest & say I was 25 mins late. I was about 15 mins running behind time, but then when reaching her neighborhood there was a naked man, who had striped in the middle of the street (Northveiw) & was dancing all over the place. Traffic was backed up, and I called 911 to get him help. Once I arrived she started my hair, but it was taking longer than normal. At 1am she said whatever wasn't finished at 2am, would have to be finished the next day, I said fine. 2am came and about 1 side still needed to be done. She said I should come back at 8am or 11am. I said Vheekie which one? That's a big time difference & I had to plan the day. She texted early in the am & said come at 11am. I made sure I left at a decent time & arrived at 11am. I texted & let her know I had arrived. I got no answer, so I came inside. She was braiding someone else's hair, I said should I wait in my car? She said yes. 12pm came nothing, 1pm came nothing, then soon after, I got a text from her saying she should be done soon. 1:30pm came and I saw the client leave. Vheekie did not inform me, I just saw her & texted her to ask if I should come in. She responded, I have to eat first, I said ok. At 1:40pm I decided to wait inside for her. She was preparing a meal on the stovetop, talking to some friends on speaker. I waited patiently in the living room, while she ate & talked, to about 2pm. Here it is I arrived at 11am on the nose, and she started my hair close to 2pm. I had a very important Black Tie event to go to; my Godson's going away to college/belated prom/graduation celebration. You'll know Class of 2020 didn't get the real celebrations this year. 2:55pm came and Vheekie said she had a dentist appointment to go to by 3:30pm. Mine you my hair was half done. I said Vheekie I have to get my hair completed, this was day 2. I couldn't miss the event, she said, "You're going to have to wear a hat". I'm like you're kidding right? She's like no! I was upset, but stayed calm, because I needed her to finish. She made calls to the dentist office, asking if she could reschedule. She said they said, the next appt. was mid Sept, and that they'd keep her $200 deposit if she didn't show this time. She stated she had canceled twice before. Then she claims to have called back & told them she wasn't feeling well & she needed to reschedule in order to keep her deposit. Then she claimed to have called back again & told them, she'd just come. With COVID-19, I know an office wouldn't tell you to come, if you just shared you were sick. Anyway she said she had to go, that we could finish the following day (day 3) or she could refer me to a shop in Lanham, who could finish my hair. She stated she would take care of the cost, since she couldn't finish it. Mine you I needed to be home at 5pm, latest 6pm, in order to leave by 7, to get to the event by 7:45pm. I get to the shop and the women have no idea on how to finish my hair. Originally I was just getting corn rolls, then Vheekie advertised a style that she wanted someone to model (rainbow braids). I volunteered, my original $25 deposit went towards this style, and she asked that I buy the hair. When someone models, you don't make them buy the products you're using, and pay for the service, which I mentioned to her. She ended up saying, keep my receipt & she'd reimburse me for the hair. When the braids were finally complete after 2 days, around 6:30pm Vheekie wanted to take pictures. I said sure, but I really have to go, so it has to be quick. I was now extremely late for the event. I thought she took 5-6 pictures, then I said Vheekie, please respect my time, I have to go & I left. Vheekie had my $25 deposit, she never reimbursed me for the hair, so what I owed her was technically $5.78 plus a tip, which is only voluntarily at this point (Cost of modeling a style for her was $90). The hair total that I purchased for her was $59.22. Minutes after she texts me 12-13 pictures that she took, and complained that they weren't nice enough. Then she sent multiple texts saying I owed the lady who helped with my hair $80, and that my hair was short; which it isn't, etc, etc. I just wanted to get to the event & she's calling & texting. I couldn't give her anymore energy. 4:30 am I get a message saying she charged my card $120. When I responded to her later in the am, she said she did that on purpose, JUST to get my ATTENTION!!! This is now FRAUD!!!

Had my install yesterday after researching Microlocs/Sisterlocks for a long time. Consultation went smoothly and was scheduled about a month out which added to my excitement.

I reached out two days in advance on Yelp and she responded immediately about her availability and also about the type of hairstyle I wanted. During my appointment she was nice, funny, and allowed me to relax. I never have a good experience with getting braids, even weaves done in the DC/MD area, typically the braider is rude, they pull your hair, and just overall very very unprofessional but Dina was the complete opposite. So, I will be going back and I've already recommended her to some of my girlfriends. She is now my new permanent hair stylist in the area!!!

Every single visit I leave saying "You did your BIG ONE, Kerri!!! " -- and this time was no different. I showed her a picture of the style I wanted and she delivered it exactly. No guessing, no compromises, just results. I have longer locs, so my appointment ran about 3 hours (shampoo, retwist, style, and dry time included) -- which is actually pretty quick for my length and services. Just keep in mind your time may vary depending on hair length and what you're getting done. I also had zero wait time, which I always appreciate. Chair-side manner: 10/10 - Now, Kerri's chair-side manner is truly something special. I've been to a lot of stylists over the years, and her personality and the way she makes you feel just hits different. I also want to shout out Torae, Tajae, and Freda -- both have shown me excellent service as well. This shop is full of talent. Vibes: 10/10 - The atmosphere is everything -- welcoming, cultural, clean, and just peaceful. Everyone is friendly, knowledgeable about locs, and professional. They offer beverages and books to keep you comfortable, and they even send out newsletters with loc care tips, shop events, and local happenings. Little touches like that show they genuinely care about their clients beyond the chair. Overall: 10/10 - I've visited one other loc-centered salon in the DMV, and this one is in a league of its own. Every time I come back I can see the shop growing and leveling up in how they serve their clients. 10/10. Been coming here for years and I'm not going anywhere. Peace & Blessings, -Key
