I visited Ms. Mia came there looking for another stylist and she talked about another the other Stylist so bad and tried to discredit her…. These comments sound like the things she was saying about the other hair Stylists and they used to work together. I could not wait to get out of there. Needless to say I found who I was looking for Nurika on Franklin Rd adjacent to the BoJangles. I go to another girl cause Nu could not take me the day I came in but the the young lady she put me with has growing hands my hair with color is growing fast. I told Nu that I went there looking for her, and she said she didn’t know where she was. Nu must have addressed her and she started blowing my phone up harassing me that I had to block her……Service: Shampoo & conditioning
Honestly I don’t know what triggered me to come back and write a review after all these years but I’m guessing someone needed to hear my story. I haven’t been to Mia’s since 2014 when she was located in the plaza on cascade rd & old Fairburn next to the Publix. The day my hair was fried died & laid to the side, literally. So much heat was applied to my hair for this “Dominican blowout” that my hair never recovered from the stress and damage. She told me I needed a trim and I agreed to it, needless to say she did a big chop & claimed “Your hair needed it” I don’t care what it needed sis, we said a trim not take 4-6 inches off! I was young & dumb and I trusted the process. Well the process never came, my hair took years to grow back with the help of braids & protective styles ofcourse. The whole experience was awful and truly its the reason why I’ve never been back to any other Dominican salon and I never will!!
First off, this is not a Dominican salon….confusion at why that is the name, because the service and process is nothing like a genuine Dominican salon. Service is ok. I got a blowout and my hair is natural so when she used SPRITZ on my hair it kind of worried me. It made my hair hard and dry. I had been 2 times and that was my last time going to her
I booked on styles seat for a 1:45 appointment. Didn't get out there until after 6 on a Sunday. I have natural hair and just wanted to see what it would look like straighten. The lady that shampoo me was wonderful. Ms. jade appreciation for me being a customer was wonderful she told me numerous of times she appreciate my business. However I said three time I want her to get close to my roots so they could be straighten. She said yes I got you! Well she didn't and that would be why maybe I would attend again, that and the wait time. Also kinda pricey. I changed my rating for this shop because she is on style seats and I posted this same review and she made her comments and blocked my post. Now I'm thinking why do that? Don't you want an honest opinion! Makes me think how many reviews did she block!
I had been growing my hair naturally for a year with no silk press or anything, so I decided to give it a shot to see how far I had come along with my hair process. The price range was normal for a wash and blow out I believe it was 55-65, anyway I wanted a blow out and when she was finished one side of my head was smooth to the touch and looked great but the other side was puffy looking. I paid her and walked out, a couple hours later all my hair had poofed up and I was very disappointed. I don't believe this is a real Dominican hair salon. #thumbs down!
I never write reviews, but had to post this one... this salon is good for the basic wash/set, but please do not allow "Mia" to provide other services for which she is not qualified. She told me I needed a trim and even allowed me to owe her $5, since I only brought cash to cover a wash/set plus tip, and she was more concerned with me having healthy hair than a few dollars. I thought that was a great gesture until I got home and combed my hair, only to realize she cut far more than a trim. Even worse than that, the left side is at least 3" longer than the right side, and the back is cut into a V-shape rather than even across! She even had the nerve to take a picture of the right side, because she had styled my hair so well... it's awful. Needless to say, I won't be paying back the $5, because I have to pay someone else to fix her disaster. Hopefully the lady who had her hair colored before I was styled didn't go home to have an equally devastating surprise. By the way, "Mia" feel free to review the camera footage to confirm.
I called this place because my friends were telling me I should go to the Dominicans. She was close to where we were at the time. We called and she said to come in and ask for her. Her name is Jade but I have a feeling it's Mia. Anyway, I asked for a wash and press. There were only two people working. One washing and prepping and the other, the stylist. My mom also decided to get hers done. Both ladies were full of attitude. You can cut the tension with a knife in there. Do not go to this place. To make a long story short she pressed my hair and wrapped, and also said she trimmed she did not. Me and my mom are peaceful people and just paid and thanked and walked out. I got my hair done again a day later. And she informed me that she hadn't really trimmed my hair. Btw, my edges were not done. And I thought that was normal , but found out from my friends who frequent real Dominican salons that they have special tools to get that. By the way. I was told one price but the price kept going up. This place and its owner are scammers. I'm sorry I chose this place last minute. I should've gone to the one that was recommended to me. I repeat DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE. You'll regret it.
Salon was nice, Clean. Everyone in the salon was styled beautiful. My grandmother loved the service and asked me to post her review. They even offered a Men's Keratin. This was the first I heard and after going home and doing resarch Keratin products are in stores for Men. The lady seems to know her hair products. Thank you for an letting me purchase the gift card and giving my special lady beautiful hair.
I love this place! The only reason why I gave them a "Very Good" rating instead of an "Excellent" rating was simply because I wasn't to fond of the way they, the red-haired lady in particular, combed my hair. She was kind of rough and I observed that some of the other stylists were too! They need to be a little bit more gentle on their clients' tresses by combing from the bottom of the hair to the top, instead the exact opposite. But other than that I like them and my straightness lasted for about a week and a half so that was pretty good. Oh and another reason why I rated the salon "Very Good" is because I noticed the styling was sub-par/okay from some of the other stylists. However, my stylist in particular, Jozy, had my hair full of body, super silky and shiny, but most of all was gentle while styling and didn't burn me. Price was pretty standard $55 35=wash and set, 10=Deep Condition, 10=Trim. Oh and my stylist in particular knew the difference between a trim and cut...another plus! :- The location of the salon was very convenient for me, since the salon is only 5 mins away from my house, so I definitely will be going back! :- Overall, they all need to modify their combing techniques!
My daughter went there in August and when she blew out her hair she burned her forehead with that HOT blower. I called the owner when my daughter got home and told her and she kept denying that she did anything wrong. As a business owner she's supposed to at least apologize and try to work things out if you want to keep your customers. I told her my daughter will never go back to her ever again. Thank God my daughter was able to find a better Dominican salon that does deep conditioner for a lot cheaper than what Mia charges.
