I moved to Memphis last year from Washington DC and did not know what to expect from stylists in the South. Being bi-racial and maintaining a short, naturally curly style, I had a really difficult time finding a happy medium. I usually avoid African-American owned salons as they always want to perm my hair and often don't know how to manage my natural curls. The problem that I encounter with Caucasian owned salons though is that they often get overwhelmed with my tight curls.
I went to about three different salons in Memphis and they butchered me. Finally, I came across Cloud 9 and have found my hair heaven!
Rebecca is so fantastic with short cuts and Angela understands bi-racial hair so the two of them together work wonders on my style. And I love the Brazilian Keritan Treatments (pricey but worth it) and the LSB hair putty - it makes my hair super, super shiny. I will never og anywhere else as long as I am in Memphis.
Pros: best for short cuts and brazilian keratin treatments
Cons: none
