| - Hi Everyone. I,too, went and visited Styles by Lisa and was given the run down by Lisa of all of her natural hair experience. After a 3 hour visit, I left the salon with wet hair that was not what I asked for. I have a medium length super curly fro. I asked for a nice shape up..tapered along the back and sides. I wear my hair curly, so I typically get my hair cut dry. I went to the salon, explained the service that I was looking for and was assured that everything would be okay. My hair was shampooed and blown out, against my wishes. I was told that that was the only way to have my hair cut. My hair was a tangled mess after the shampoo and the young lady, Precious, who detangled my hair made the most disrespectful comments about how damaged and unhealthy my hair was. She yanked and pulled at my head and by the time it was over, there were handfuls of hair on the floor. I was sick to my stomach seeing all of the hair. Next, Lisa blew out my hair, using waaaayyyy too much heat. She then cut my hair. I explained that I wanted a tapered look. She had NO IDEA how to cut my curly hair. I left with a haircut that looked like I had a round helmet on my head. I was pissed. I initially trusted the stylist because, after all, she claimed to be a professional. After blowing out, I told her that I always wear my natural curls and never wear my hair blown out. She then took me back to the shampoo bowl and re-wet my hair and began raking some product through my hair. It took 45 minutes for her to apply the product. She then said I needed to sit under the dryer for 1.5 hours...ARE YOU SERIOUS? It has NEVER taken that long to do my hair. I eventually left after 30 minutes of sitting under the dryer. I went home, rinsed the product out and tried my best to salvage my hair. I WILL NEVER go back to that salon. The staff was unprofessional and so slow. Styles by Lisa=NEVER AGAIN. Oh, BTW, Lisa worked in the record business before deciding that she was a "natural hair care professional". I should have thought twice after hearing that.
