Eimaj Salon,

"Let me start by saying I usually do NOT leave bad reviews. However, this particular visit requires one. I booked an online appointment through booksy for a silk press at 1130am on July 26th, which required a non-refundable deposit of $40. Shortly after booking, I get a phone call and a text from the stylist Britney, stating that she was not feeling well and if she could reschedule me for the following morning. I respectfully declined because I booked the appointment for which worked with MY schedule and I was unavailable the next day. I asked for my deposit back and she said she would find a new stylist that would be able to take me. Fine, no problem. I arrived at the salon at 11:25, signed in and waited for my turn. At 11:40, the stylist (Kisha) says she would be with me shortly as she was finishing a client. No problem, I can wait 20 minutes for my turn. The time is now 12:15 (45 minutes AFTER my scheduled appointment) and I am still waiting to be serviced. I am now irritated because I have other things planned with my day and had an appointment at 3pm. At 12:40pm (now an hour and 10 minutes AFTER my scheduled appointment) I get called over to the chair. I explain to Kisha that I have somewhere to be at 3pm and if she would be done. She was confused by this. I don't get out of the chair until 3:15pm and my hair is NOT pressed. She then proceeds to tell me the style will last 2 days!!! I've had silk presses that have lasted me weeks! This is something I could have done at home to come out looking the way it did. I am upset because this style cost me $95 plus a tip (booksy asks you to tip BEFORE the service), my hair is a mess (puffy on the ends), I've missed my appointment and my time has been wasted. If you want a nice silk press, please go somewhere else. This place is completely unprofessional and do not honor your appointment times. I will not be going back."

"Shae was professional and did a great job from shampoo to straightening and trimming. I had a peaceful experience, which was much needed. She was also clear about trimming being an additional fee. I appreciate that she didn't shame me into getting my ends trimmed but just asked if I was interested. She also gave me a brief tutorial on how I can wrap my hair. The one picture is from the next day."

"I’ve been a client of Demetria for 7 months now.
