Eudanis Dominican Beauty Salon

Critical: ProfessionalismListen, my hair was soft, my hair was shiny, and my hair was overall very pretty, but I am giving you 1 because I feel as though this will help you, but mostly, help people like me in the future. I am afro-latina, so my hair is a mixture of both African American hair and Hispanic hair. I cannot tell if you simply lack the proper training for dealing with African American hair, or you have it but neglect what you learned because you are rushing, but you NEED to handle our hair with more care! You NEED to be more gentle! While you were washing my hair, it was fine, but when you had to comb the conditioner through, this is when the problems started. First of all, you need to comb from the BOTTOM, UP, not from top to bottom. This creates an abundance of unnecessary tangles that were not there and you’ll only end up making it much harder for yourselves and also for the customer. Another tip, if there is a knot (that you created), do not simply PLOW through it! Wet it some more, and gently pick it out. This will prevent tearing and breakage and will also save the CUSTOMER from a lot of pain! My head was extremely sore because you people were pulling and tugging on my scalp as if I was not a human being. IT HURT. I could hear my hair “ripping” because you were being so impatient and when I looked at the brush, it was FULL OF MY HAIR. I can tell you now, my hair has NEVER come out that much when I did it myself! Never! Not even when it was natural! It broke my heart to see so much of my hair stuck in that brush…I have been leaving my hair natural for months and decided to go here to get it straightened for the first time in a while and then you just rip out all of my progress. After I returned home from the salon, I could not believe my eyes… my hair was so thin…so, so thin. I was crushed–my hair had never been that thin in my enire life. I had so much breakage and so many short areas of my hair because you ripped it all out. My ponytail had no weight or substance…I was so sad. Please, for the love of god, take my advice into consideration! Just because I suffered, does not mean other girls have to suffer, as well. Be more patient, be more gentle, brush from bottom, up, please treat girls like us a little nicer. And lastly, since I am afro-latina, I can understand Spanish! There are MANY people who are bilingual these days so it is extremely ignorant for one of your employees to say racist remarks under their breath thinking customers cannot understand! You should NOT assume that since someone does not speak Spanish to you, or because someone has brown skin, that they do not know Spanish. That is a very ignorant way to think, especially since you had no idea I was Hispanic, like you! It was not the owner who said the remarks, but still. HIGHLY unprofessional! Please inform your employees of the things I have written here. I’ll be back, and hopefully, you do things differently next time.Listen, my hair was soft, my hair was shiny, and my hair was overall very pretty, but I am giving you 1 because I feel as though this will help you, but mostly, help people like me in the future.
