Salon Review and mini Update with Pics

Your hair looks lovely!

Thanks for the review of the salon, also.

It came right on time for me, actually. I decided that from now on I am going to start getting my relaxers professionally done. I am so afraid of stylists though.

Salon Avenue is a bit of a drive for me (considering I hardly ever have a reason to be on 695 most times) but I think it would be worth it to go there every other month if I can get good service. The place seems very inviting.

I made an appointment for March 22nd (my next touchup time) and I am excited. I did not ask for Tracy, so I hope I get someone just as good. :yep: Was that your first time there? Have you used any other stylists there?

Edited to add:

I was thinking....Maybe I should go in sooner, for a wash and set or something just to feel the place out. I might just do that.

It was my first time there. My mom has been going for a while. Im not sure about the other stylist but Tracey is just very warm and welcoming! I think the wash and set idea is good. 695 is a breeze as long as your not on it between 3:30 pm and 8 pm, this is coming from someone who drove it twice a day 5 days a week. I could get a 45 min drive thru in 20 minutes lol :auto: Let me know how it goes!

Your hair is gorgeous! Last week I posted a thread looking for a salon/stylist in Baltimore. This is right on time. I'm assuming this is the Salon Avenue in the shopping center at Liberty & Old Court (let me know if it's not). That's right near me. It would be nice if I could find someone to help me grow out. Thanks for the recommendation.

Why not? lol I have always had problem with flaking. I grease my scalp with my own mix of coconut oil and tea tree oil. She did ask first instead of slapping it on there:lachen:. The KeraCare felt GREAT on my scalp, it even has a little refreshing tingle left today. I wouldnt use it on the regular cuz I like my coconut/ tea tee because it is all natural and effective.
 
literally...5 mins away from me...I wonder if they do natural hair?
ETA: just checked out ur fotki...gorgeous...she did a great job!

Well my stylist looks natural. I watched her give someone a texturizer. On the comment card they file away with your info you can check if you are relaxed or natural.
 
This sound sooo goood!!
I'm jealous now! I wish customer service at hair salons was like that around dese parts:drunk:
 
I started :giggle: when you said you fell asleep! I'm sooo jealous that you have a good stylist that works in a professional salon! That's so hard to find

Your hair looks brutiful, so healthy and full of body :yep:
 
OMG your hair is gorgeous, thick and luscious looking. Lucky for you to find a great stylist who is on your side.

:lachen:@ brutiful! Yes gurl. My mom says she is tempted to fall asleep every time she goes too. I was so tired cuz I woke up at 4 to work out and I had to be to work at 6 :ohwell: (hence me displaying to the world wide web my ugly arse work uniform lol). But ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

FINALLY I have a name!

I friend of mine has been going there for a while, but she would say she couldn't "remember" the name just that it was in Owings Mills. hahaha I'm going to check them out to do my hair for my trip.:grin:

I know some folks that would have loved the greezed scalp! I don't do grease on a regular basis, but I would not have been mad if she did at all.
