This was my first time visiting this shop. I have locs and have been locked for about eight years. I’ve never added extensions to them before. I wanted to try something different, so I looked at some twist hairstyles and decided to go with that. First, I liked the location of the shop, and the owner, I assumed she was the owner, was quite patient with me. I sent her a picture of the hairstyle I wanted, and she said she could do it. I asked her the day before if I needed to bring my own hair, and she said no. However, when I arrived the next day and she saw my locs (I also showed her the picture again), we both agreed that it would be better for me to buy my own hair so it could blend better with my locs. She was very helpful throughout the process. I called and sent her pictures of different hair brands, and she told me exactly what to buy.
But reviewing my hairstyle at home, I noticed a few imperfections. The style I requested was a loc retwist with two-strand extensions; however, my locs weren't retwisted prior to the extensions being added. Instead, the extensions were attached to my new growth. Additionally, three different individuals worked on my hair during the appointment, which resulted in some imperfections. A few twists are shorter than others, and some locs were not fully twisted into the extensions. I was able to correct these mistakes myself with a crochet needle, and rather than dipping the ends in hot water, which typically helps the style set and lasts longer, the ends were burned. I later dipped my hair at home for a more polished result. Overall, I am satisfied with the style and appreciate the stylist’s patience and willingness to assist me in selecting the right hair. However, for future appointments, I would prefer that only one person complete the style and that a proper retwist be included beforehand. While there were some challenges, the outcome was still good, and I would consider returning. It took about 6 hours. 1st pic is what I wanted last 2 pics is what I got. I circled the difference.
