I reside in Texas and I have embraced my natural hair for the past 9 years without using any heat styling. During my recent visit to California, I decided to pamper myself with a wash, haircut, and silk press. Maria and her team treated me like royalty as soon as I entered the salon. The team exudes warmth and hospitality, offering complimentary beverages and snacks. The salon's impeccable organization and exceptional service left me thoroughly impressed. I indulged in a luxurious shampoo treatment, deep conditioning, and a skillful blow-dry. I expressed my concerns to Maria and her team regarding maintaining straight hair without damage from heat styling. They ensured that my hair received the utmost care. Not only was the silk press impeccable, but it remained flawless for over a week, despite my return to Texas and frequent gym visits. The precision and neatness of my haircut were commendable, and most importantly, my natural curls bounced back effortlessly after washing, without any heat damage. I extend my gratitude to Maria and her team for an exceptional experience and for prioritizing the health of my hair. I have attached images depicting my initial salon visit, the transformation process, the lasting results after a week of activities, and my revived natural curls post-wash.
