| - Love, love this place. My friend, Valerie, whom has a daughter that has wild curls told me about this place over a year ago, but it wasn't until right after Thanksgiving that we went a couple months ago.
My daughter is a beautiful 14 year old daughter with super crazy curls. She is a mixture of Chinese and Black. And from my side of the family, half of us have wavy hair, unlike the normally stick straight hair that Chinese have, my family doesn't.
So my daughter's curls are crazy and a mixture of 2-3 different types of curls throughout her head. Her curls have gotten crazier as she's gotten older and very hard to work with. I even got carpel tunnel a few years ago trying to weekly detangle her hair, which was a nightmare for both of us.
Then, the past 2-3 years, she's resorted to wearing her gorgeous hair up and she's so been wanting to wear it down, but it would become a tangling mess. Finally we forked over the money to come here. I honestly don't remember the exact cost of what it cost, but I know we did purchase a bottle of conditioner, which was probably $20, the tip and doing the hair, it was in the range of $110.
That's a lot to spend on a child. But, I believe getting the hair done was around $70. We had Melanie, the owner of the shop do her hair and she was absolutely wonderful at explaining everything. I asked MANY questions and had her show us over and over again.
She showed us how to detangle our daughter's hair WITHOUT using any combs or anything. It was simply amazing as I didn't know that one could do that. My daughter's hair was super tangled and I didn't think we could do this, but I watched. Melanie and another girl detangled my daughter's hair at the same time, so that reduced the time.
The products that she recommended were Deva Curl products. I ended up buying the big liter bottles from Amazon, but that is another story. The products work great in my daughter's hair.
She now wears her hair down every day. However, there is work for her to do in detangling her hair every morning and before bed. I think at first it took her 1/2 hr each time, but now it's less than that.
Her hair is beautiful.
Melanie also did not cut her hair wet, rather dry. She recommended that we buy a standing hair dryer bonnet and that often we can find on Craigslist or something like that for $50 or less. However, we ended up getting one from Sally's on sale for about $90. This works well for my daughter's hair.
I love that they take into account that not all curls are the same and when the hair is cut dry, it's then that you'll know how the curls will be. So, 2 months later, we are still very happy.
We have not gone back for a refresher course yet, but that's okay. We will.
It seems the people that come here also have been aggravated before with their curls and coming here, being educated about how to manage their curls is literally life changing. My daughter can now enjoy her hair down.
Yay!!! So happy. Thanks Melanie!! We'll be back.
