Checking for someone in that is good with scissors...I just need some shaping for my layers not a drastic cut.

I am going through similar trying to do HH practices which are considered "unconventional" by cosmetology school standards. We are opening a salon in the White Plains, NY area and are looking for licensed healthy hair stylists. If they are LHCF'ers fantastic. Anyone and everyone point them our way.
Thanks-Chevelure618

This is the coolest thread! I too began cosmetology school because of what I learned here at LHCF over the past year or so. And am very familiar with the "looks" from fellow students and the teachers regarding the HH practices I've learned here. I hope to become LHCF approved when I graduate in Nov 2011!

I am a Cosmetologist and Esthetician. I service Rochester, NY but I have clients in Elmira, NYC and little cities in between who I travel to service. The philosophy on healthy hair practices around here is so misconstrued I am seriously considering opening my own salon and spa. I went for an interview and was explaining my stance on hair care and maintenance , especially ER an installation and I explained how I would not install a weave on someone who I felt was not a good candidate, ie; dry, brittle broken hair, a scalp that would not support the installation... Etc and she said " well I can see where you're coming from but when you have someone with 2 inches of broken off hair come in asking for a weave, you're not going to turn her away, I'm gonna make that 80 bucks and glue some tracks on her head. When bills are due you ain't thinking about healthy hair". I tried explaining to her about different things I could suggest to a client like that to begin to grow her hair back and I got the good old " I mean, her hair ain't growing back, just make your money". Yeah, I walked out and did not return. I didnt want whatsoever to be associated with that shop. I really am considering opening my own shop. I am greedy for knowledge though and I feel that as much as I know, there are sooooooo many techniques that I still have yet to learn.

Idk of any salons but just wanna say OP that article you posted is really informative!!! It's such a shame that someone you pay $80 to do your hair would want to skimp on products.

Bumping. Not giving up. Lol! I saw Panache was mentioned in BR but that was a few years ago. Thinking of driving to GlamSuite in NO but most of her recs are for sew ins, so I still wanted to find a healthy hair stylist for my relaxer....

Hello lady!

I have one that believes in stretching relaxers, does not overlap & is not scissor happy. She in the baton rouge area and has been relaxing my hair for a year. BUT, she's so popular (among short haired ladies cause she can cut hair fiercely) so you may be waiting a while. PM me if u are interested.
