Went there last week-end hoping to get a change of look but nothing too extravagant. I had a hairstyle in mind and explained it to the "stylist". She was like:" No no, you'd rather not, it will very difficult for me to level it out". I think she was just too lazy to spend some effort on a client's head. I ended up with the same style as before save for a bit of trimming and paid 40 bucks. Then she asked if I wanted it straightned out, I said yes, and after 10 minutes of fiddling around she was like:"all done!". It was horrible, it looked poufed up and frizzy, I had to re do it at home. Ok I have curly, high maintenance hair, but still, hair salons are there for a reason!
I would have done the cut and the straightening out myself and it would have looked 20 times better.
Bottom line: big big disappointment, unconcerned staff, lousy service!
I got a haircut in November at Hair Bananas. It was nice that they allowed me to come in without an appointment, but the stylist left me in the middle of my cut to cut someone else's hair! That's just sub-par. As well, it is easily the worst haircut i've had in a long time. The technique the stylist used "razoring" isn't suited to curly hair at all (rookie mistake), and even when she straightened my hair (using her walmart-esque METAL straightening iron) the cut was not surprisingly unbelieveably bad.
It should be noted that I explained to the stylist what I wanted and she talked me out of it-> I won't be fooled again.
