Carolina Beauty

"Went to this store for the first time yesterday as I didn’t know it was over here. I went in with my baby and his stroller and immediately started being followed. All around the store this one lady with a short black bob was around every corner I looked. Literally every time I looked up or went to a different aisle there she was. I’ve never experienced this before but it was definitely easy to point out. She even went as far as walking up to my baby (when I was a couple feet from him..still in my sight) to have “conversation” with an 8mo old but I’m sure she was just checking the stroller to see if I stole anything. They were “kind” but definitely watched me like a hawk. Never will return. If you’re black this is your warning."

"I absolutely love this store my mom and I come to this store every time we come to Raleigh we're in the store for over an hour we find really great deals"

"I came to the store with ample time to spare a woman then pulled and locked the door and laughed. I stood outside and knocked on the door as it was not closing time yet and she just stared at me through the window while her boyfriend sat outside and laughed. Do not spend your money here!"

"Okay I thought I was tripping until I saw the reviews. EVERYBODY THAT IS BLACK DONT STEAL OKAY!!! Like others stated not even a hello before they start following and accusing ppl of stealing. I WILL NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN. I only been in here ONE TIME today because this store was my last option. Now it’s not even one, I will do without or drive to the nearest town if they was the last beauty store standing in Raleigh. Have a bless one!"

"I was going to come here because this is the only hair store nearby that’s open on a Sunday afternoon. However, I’ll wait until Lux Beauty across the street opens on Monday. I don’t usually leave reviews, because who cares, really? This business doesn’t care and most people don’t even check reviews. I also feel that most reviews are extremely biased. You usually only leave reviews if an experience was really really bad, or really really good. That said, I’ve been here a few times over the last few years and while they have a good selection, offer the convenience of being open when most stores are closed, and they are usually pretty nice at the register, there’s always either a man or an elderly lady following me around the store. They don’t ever ask if I need help…. they just watch my every move. They have security tags on every single thing in the store. I mean they would put security tags on the security tags if they could. I don’t even bring a purse inside most of the time, so I don’t understand the need to hoover. One time, after I finished paying, the little lady at the register JUMPED up to get on top of the counter to look over and see if I had anything in the basket that was at my feet. I don’t know about you, but I don’t appreciate being treated like a criminal when supporting a business."
