Shocked at the crapy stylists that are there now. I have been going to Oscar da Silva for many years, usually when I want a nice hair cut or color done. But, all the professional, great stylists are gone! Everyone there is new and no one speaks English either! I wanted a perm done in my hair. I spoke to the owner Oscar and told him I wanted big full curls. He didn't even acknowledge my pressence like he is too good to talk to me or something. He even rolled his eyes when I specifically said, ""Big romantic curls"". I guess that annoyed him. He said $110.00 dollars which I though was high, but I was willing to pay as long as I would walk out with beautiful hair. First, the shampoo lady sucked. You want to have your head massaged and washed nicely that's part of the experience when you go to a Salon. It's about being pampered. This woman burned my scalp with hot water not once, not twice, three times! I had to tell her to lower the hot water. The whole time she's talking in Spanish to everyone and not even washing my hair good or looking at what she's doing. Then a Columbian guy did my hair. He spoke no English and did not bother to ask me if I wanted a cut or anything. He used rollers that were too small and I mentioned it to him but he said it would look like big curls when he took them out. I reluctantly tried to trust him. When he finally finished my hair was dry and frizzy. I walked in the Salon with silky, shiny good hair and left looking like I just woke up with knotty, bad smelling hair that I haven't combed in a week! It was messy, crispy waves not even curls! He didn't even cut my hair. I wanted it layered to give it body and he didn't even bother. When I told him I wan't happy with it, he just stared at me with a confused look on his face. I was so angry, I wanted to cry. There was no way I was going to pay for a smelly ugly non-perm! So I tried to talk to him but he just kept telling me to pay. I gave him 60 dollars and told him that was it! He said that was fine in Spanish and walked away from me with his nose in the air. He seemed happy with the money, because he knows he gave me an ugly crapy hairstyle! I will never go back again!
