Okay y'all... I WENT and I LOVED IT!
When I got there Reniece was at the front desk. She was very polite and the place was very nice. Another client was leaving, and then Breon called me into her room. She took my two french braids out and looked over my hair... I forgot all the questions I wanted to ask, but she asked me questions about my product usage and what were my main concerns about my hair... I told her that since I had cut my 6 inches of perm/heat damage off last December 30th, I've been experiencing SSK's, which had never been a problem before... blah blah blah...
Anyways, she took me to the bowl and put some of Reniece's "fruit oil" product on my hair... it smelled WONDERFUL... she washed it very carefully and we talked about technique and she let me feel how my hair had so much slip with that product. **Then a 4 car accident happened right outside and we all ran out to see what was going on... **
Came back inside and she put some strengthening conditioner that Reniece makes into my hair, she used this weird comb to massage my scalp... it was WONDERFUL... and the products smelled sooooo good! She put some other conditioner in my hair and I sat under the dryer with a plastic cap. I was the only one in the shop besides the two sisters... they went back outside to see what was going on with the accident.
After that, she rinsed me out, and brought me into her room again. She blow dried my hair, told me that she would put the white cape on me so I can see my ends and how they looked. They were BAD y'all... I have at least an inch to cut, maybe 1.5''. She told me the overall health of my hair was pretty good... I didn't have time allotted for a trim, she had another customer coming... and she was definitely on time. I scheduled to come back in 2 weeks later... I'll get another treatment, a trim, and then we'll talk about me getting weaved up. She said I was a good candidate for weave services because my hair was overall healthy, I don't have any scalp issues or whatnot... my ends were being ravaged by ssk's because I just pull them by the knot and how that was not good for my hair... dah dah dah.
I'm very excited. I told them both how I have about 10 months until my wedding and I want to be skinny with a bunch of healthy hair! Lol... they laughed, they were both really sweet girls. Reniece suggested the 6 month weave up option... Which we'll talk about more in depth when I come back. She talked to me about 20 more minutes after my appt with Breon was over about hair care and suggestions and what not. I appreciate how she took the time to talk to me about questions I had. I'm in the books for two weeks tho!!! Yaaaaazz y'all!!!
After the blowdry, Breon put two braids down the sides of my head... so I could go home and twist it out or braid it out... It looked super thick y'all. I haven't seen my hair that big in a while. My hair feels different... she said it would. I don't do protein treatments.. I just know moisture moisture moisture. So she said my hair would feel definitely "fortified''. It does. It was very much so...
I'm trying to attach these pics I snapped... the first 3 are how I left the shop (I went right to the store, so excuse the background) and the other 2 are when I got home and let the hair out... I don't think they will attach, because the little gray box is just blinking like it's still loading... I will try to post below this reply...
