I remember getting my hair done somewhere in Atlanta and my stylist started screaming into the phone, "You better not come over here! You know I have a restraining order!"

See...where I said I was going to stop, you picked up! So many of those things were going on at my ghetto shop...
One more that I forgot...
I know a girl who works at a ghetto shop (the styles are ghetto, but she's a really good stylist and she knows about healthy hair AND how to TRIM, not cut). I don't know what happened to all of the stylists there but they all got Saved around the same time. Now when you go to the shop, people are speaking in tounges, prophecizing (sp?), laying hands and being layed out on the floor...I'm not knocking anyones beliefs but come on, there is a time and place for everything.
Anyway, why do we do this to ourselves? We could have so much more and do so much better for ourselves if we would get some focus.

That's exactly why the last few times that I've had my hair done by a professional I had it done at either a JCPenney styling salon or a Hair Cuttery. You don't get that kind of atmosphere there. They're usually very professional and courteous, and the prices are probably comparable to some of those "ghetto" salons.

It's funny, but it's not at the same time. I wish I could go back to her, but I just can't handle the ghettoness that goes on. Like I said, she is the best person that I know for trimming and she uses quality products, but the I don't know if she's going to catch the Holy Ghost while I'm sitting in her chair.
i just hate when i go into a salon and come out with bees wax in my hair thats stiff and nasty and wont come out unless you wash it five times, yuck!!!!!

My cousin was getting her hair done in Daytona Beach, FL and her gay male stylist started waving some scissors around and told one of the straight female stylists to stay away from his man or he would "slice her like bologna".
my old stylist also used to smoke while doing my hair sometimes. i was always scared my hair was gonna catch on fire, her spraying hairspray in one hand and holding the lit cigarette in the other.

but anyway, the stylist I used to go to, in West Oak Lane, in Philly, was Cassandra's creations. Theres only one shampoo girl and she shampoos you in the order you come in,regardless of your appointment time. the stylist are all good, but theyre sooooooooooo slow it makes you mad, and they dont take you in the order of appointment either, but the order you came in. I mean for a press and curl, it might take you 5 hours!!!

Has anyone had some really bad experiences when they tried a new stylist?
As a broke freshman I tried this place in Philly where they were drying with brown paper towels and one woman was sneaking puffs of a cigarette while stling another customers hair.
The place was cheap but who wants to risk their precious strands?

I was gonna ask the same thing. I'm from Philly too. I'm still searching for a really good hair salon.
