I came here for a hair weave by Amber. I have gone to Amber in the past, just once for a haircut and it was A+ and on point. Recently I came in on a Saturday to get a weave for my upcoming SECOND WEDDING. My current husband I got married 8/31/2009 without family members present so we are having another wedding 6/13/2009 and Amber is aware of this.
Prior to coming in, I explained to Amber that I would be needing help picking out the hair, color etc since this was my first weave ever.
She suggested that I go to a hair place near by and talk to a friend of hers that sells various types of hair. I went to that place first and I looked at the hair but was still unsure about the hair itself. I contacted Amber and explained to her that I am confused about the hair and I don't know what to get. So I go back to see Amber for a second consultation and she suggested that she go with me to pick out the hair and I agreed to that but it was all up in the air. She never set a time or date. She was really busy but never followed though on taking the time to go with me to get the hair. Actually if she was smart, she would have said, since this is your first weave, I will go get the hair and set it aside for you because you don't know what you are doing.
So once again I was on my own looking for hair. So I bought the hair which I thought matched my hair because my hair is highlighted and two different colors. So she puts the weave in and I turned out looking like a skunk! I explained to her that I did not like it, I actually cried because I looked crazy! She was even telling her next client to tell me how good it looks which was super LAME! She said she could take it out and make it all one color, but I would have to come back on a Tuesday for her to take it out.
My total was $300 for this whack weave and I gave her a tip of $20.00 on top of that which was stupid of me!!!! . Next she tells me she can switch the colors but it would be $100. What a rip off! She must needed some rent money! Let's keep it real! That is ridiculous! I am telling you I do not like it, you are going to make me wait 3 days to take it out! That is lame. So I left the salon, went to see another hair stylist the same day and she charged me $50 to take this weave out!. When I walked into the other shop to have it taken out, the stylist almost died!!! She said what the hell is this? this weave is not blended, she said look at my hair.. I have a two different colors and you cannot even tell. She said Amber took a long track of blonde hair and just stuck in the back of my head! The stylist that took it out suggested that I go back to Jazy hair that same night and let Amber know that I want a refund.
So I go back to Jazy hair and I spoke with Amber. She was not willing to give me my money back, but she was willing to give me half of it back! She said she did a lot of work to put it in and it is not her fault that I picked the wrong color hair!
I'm sorry, you know that it is my wedding weekend and I have never gotten a weave before, you should have been more accommodating and helping me pick out the hair. She claims she strives for customer satisfaction, but if that were the case, she would have stayed until midnight fixing that weave and not make we wait 3 days. I work in a professional office; I could not go to work looking like that!
Do not go to Amber. She does not value or honor your business AT ALL!
Pros: internet
Cons: unprofessional
