Altogether Lovely

I came here to get my hair braided based on a referral. I saw a friend of mine with braids, and absolutely loved them so she referred me to DeJurnee (who also happens to be the young lady that made the first review for this salon). The shop is pretty nice: clean, pretty spacious, etc. (But keep in mind this shop is within the west Englewood neighborhood, so you have to worry about where you’re going to park your car. They keep the front door of their shop locked as soon as someone walks in so it’s safe to assume it’s that bad.) When I came into the shop, I told DeJurnee who referred me and that I wanted the same braids y friend got. My biggest issue with the results were, they weren’t individual braids as I had requested. DeJurnee braided my hair onto my scalp for an inch and a half, and then completed the braid. For $ 150, this greatly limited how I could style my hair due to it being braided that way. When looking at my hair, it starts off as a cornrow, and then goes down to an «individual» braid. That same day, my cousin had an appointment for Goddess braids (which were $ 50). The young lady that braided her hair, also didn’t listen to what she wanted. She wanted a longer braid, with a fishtail at the end. The fishtail that this woman produced was the most ridiculous fishtail I had ever seen. Save your money. Go somewhere else.

This is a beauty salon like none other, if you’re looking for a peaceful setting. The staff is very pleasant and provide timely, quality service.
