So I took a chance and went to this Walmart Smartstyle Salon (Russell & Eastern) for the Vegas ladies. I would go in there every now and then and check out the products or whatever and there was a black hair stylist there named "Marcela". So after a couple of weeks of not wanting to have a big poof under my wig I called the salon and asked if she could braid my hair in cornrows straight back (only because my mom had on nails). Anyway so I get there and after the first braid I knew I should have walked out. Being that I'm so non-confrontational I didn't and now I know I should have. I washed and detangled it before I went in there so it was good to go. This chick was raking through my hair with a comb like she lost her mind the end result was terrifying because I didn't even see how bad it was til I came home and took pictures. Before that I looked at the little gown they put on you so you don't get hair on your clothing and I saw all these broken hairs with the white bulbs on it I was beyond heated $30 for this!
On top of that I got home took these craps down and they weren't even braids they were knots! So much hair came out from the root it was saddening. I felt like crying but I knew that I could nurse it back to health eventually. I threw so much stuff on my hair and covered it with my oil mix and threw on a shower cap and that's where I am now. Parts of my scalp are sore probably from where the hair was ripped out I'm not sure if there are any suggestions on what I should put on my hair but so far I just loaded it with mad conditioners and the oil mix. I know it's going to look horrible once let it dry and probably more hair comes out when I rinse this stuff out of my head I just wanted to warn you ladies of this demon spawn from hell stylist.

As a cosmetologist myself I can tell you, you need to find out the stylist last name & post a complaint on the state website, go to the website for your state & look under the licensing dept. There should be a link for cosmetologist, dentist, etc when you click on the link it should be a link to see if that stylist has any complaints against her & also to post one. You should not have to paid for that service.
. I think you should talk to the manger, about how horrible the job she did and how she left your scalp very sore. I would also ask for your money back. You might feel a little better knowing you said something after all. I sure you will be able to nurse your hair back to health.
