I live in Jacksonville,Fl and I can’t find any good hatural hair stylist for the Air Fro people I runn into can do locks and things like that,but if you have natural hair it seems like you really on your own so I’ve been doing my hair myself. I see TRU ROOTS,I going to try them, I just hope it is not another place that the main attention is lock and twist. I will gave a update when I go, I wishing for the best.

I was a customer of Simone’s at Natural Trendsetters in Miami, Florida. My hair is locked and thinning. My first visit was in the Ft. Lauderdale’s salon. Simone was very friendly and promising. She made me feel like she knew her stuff and she was very confident. She advised me that she would add hair onto my locks with the next app’t in Miami. While I was there at the Ft. Lauderdale’s salon she washed and styled my locks beautifully, within 3 hours I was done. About a month later I had an app’t again at the Miami’s salon on 7th avenue. Simone was 1 1/2 late, which I didn’t make a big deal out of, because I was going to be her first customer, so it shouldn’t take me long, so I thought. It took Simone over 6 1/2 hours to do my hair, because she continued to put me to the side and do her friends hair from 99 jamz and others. Then when she was done, she said “Oh, I forgot to tell you the price” and she charged me an astronomical amount. I had to remind her that I had already given her a deposit for the add on hair. She just looked at me and walked away, without even saying thank you. I am currently seeking someone else to do my hair. Simone was very unprofessional. She even told me that I couldn’t use my cell phone in there, when I saw others using their cell phones.

When I lived in New York (I am in Los Angeles now), the stylist I went to for four years was a woman named Oloyade and her business is called Ancestral Roots Afrikan Loc Groomers. I cannot recommend her highly enough. She used to have a salon in Fort Greene but when I was last going to her, she was working out of her home in Flatbush. She charged me $60 a visit and that included washing, a herbal rinse, steam treatment and palm rolling.

Her telephone number is 718-856-0819.
