I took my husband here for his birthday a couple months ago and let me tell you. Stay far far FAR away. I felt like I was in a hatitan brothel complete with pimp coming in to collect his money (more on that l8r). First I called b4 hand to ask about pricing on re-twisting and braiding back length dreds. She quoted me $60. Knowing my hubby's hair being his only hairdresser for 5yrz I figure I'd end up paying $80 so I brought extra with me. I set the appt for 11a.m. and arrived at 11:15. When we got there a client was already being braided but she had just gotten started and was being prepped by what appeared to be a 13yr old bc the owner was MIA. When the owner finally strolled in around noon it was with a bag full of food for her and the five bad a$$ children now running all over the shop. She finished eating and told the 13yr old to wash his hair while she started on the other client getting tree braids. I took the opportunity to run some errands until twenty minutes l8r I get a call from the Mr that he didn't think they were doing it right I RAN back. The 13yr old is now re-twisting the Mr's dreds. AND doing them incorrectly. I stop the owner and asked her to double check the child's work and with an attitude she snatches all n my manz head and just GLOPPING black gel everywhere. Then her pimp comes in when shes halfway thru. She turns to me and asks me for the $60 so she can pay him. I didnt c much choice as his head was only half done so i paid her but i also told her she had to finish them RIGHT. She said she would but i stayed put & watched. In the end they LOOKED ok but a day or two l8r when the dried gel began to flake we saw the truth. She'd put multiple dreds together trying to cut down on time as well as had not twisted MOST of the crown AND we left b4 she even braided them up from disgust. Plz if u value ur hard earned money DO NOT patronize this POS establishment. Oumi's should b shut the hell down.
