| - Was excited to find radically curly salon on Yelp and was hoping my days of bad hair cuts were over. Booked an appt with the natural hair "specialist". On the website the curly cut service includes shampoo, wash, cut, style (wash n go or diffused for curlies). To start off, she was late. I came with my hair detangled in 2 flat twists. I showed her pics of my hair in a wash n go, to show her the shape and how I wanted the shape the SAME, just a trim. She says she's got it. Picks up the scissors then and there and attempts to start cutting...my hair was just taken down from 2 strand flat twists, not even close to my natural curl pattern. Should've been a red flag and left then. I told her not to cut my hair like that, wouldn't even be a curly cut and would come out uneven, which she should already know. Then I tell her what the curly cut description from the website said. Idk why the stylist wouldn't even know the standard procedures of a service they're supposed to provide. So we shampoo, condition, now she gets to cutting. Which still doesn't seem right since she hadn't even detangled my hair, which also equates to an uneven cut. That's just common sense, to detangle before cutting or styling. But she assured me she's a professional, knows what she's doing. Section by section she pulls my hair out of its curls and cuts the ends. Seriously! She cuts my hair with my curls undefined and wet. When she's done cutting, Entirely different shape than I had before and significantly shorter . To top it off, her next appt came in right as she started styling my hair, so she rushed the styling, bottom half of my head the curls were defined the top half they weren't at all. Huge set back in my hair journey . Seriously disaster. Last time I let a stylist touch my hair with scissors. If you are a natural trying to retain your length and get an even hair cut, be weary. Protective styling for weeks.
