Did some research of different stylists on IG in Vegas and her work looked good so I decided to take the risk. She has her own private room so I'm still getting used to not hearing "girl talk" at most salons but she does make small talk so it's not completely silent.
My partial sew in was perfect! Looked beautiful in pictures and in person. Very natural and for the tightening she did these waves and my god, they were beautiful and lasted days. Not to mention the super speed she works at.
Getting a full sew in with a closure not so much. I ended up going back to have her fix it as it looked very very unnatural. She happily did it. However after fixing it it was still pretty much the same issue so I'm not sure if it was the technique or the placement or even the closure as its my first time doing a full sew in! So I won't hold it against her as I couldn't portray HOW I wanted her to fix it, but I'm sure she would have I just didn't want to make another 30 minute trip. Also, the first time human hair was used in braiding my hair where I believe synthetic hair was used this time causing an allergic reaction..
I would definitely go back for a partial sew in or just to get styled but probably not for service involving a closure
UPDATE: went back for a scalp treatment, deep condition, and a trim. Best scalp massage of my life! I had a lot of breakage/damage and my hair was really uneven and she cut the majority of it without cutting all my hair off. My hair has been looking really healthy since! Great job Nneke
