Customer Review Summary
Selection is the recurring draw here, with reviewers repeatedly pointing to the wall-to-wall stock of wigs, hair bundles, and braiding hair, some noting they have shopped there for years and always find what they need. Close behind is a split on service: several describe the staff and owner as nice and helpful, while others report the opposite, citing employees talking among themselves instead of assisting, a manager who refused a discount despite years of repeat business, and one shopper turned away from purchasing items because the registers had already closed before closing time. Multiple reviewers also flag cluttered aisles with stock piled everywhere. More serious accounts include a customer who says an employee snatched a pack of hair from her hands, and a heightened watchfulness toward shoppers that some read as accusatory. One reviewer separately describes hearing the owner make a racist remark toward a Black customer. Reviewers otherwise return for the sheer range of hair products on the shelves.

“The owner and staff are dismissive and rude. They refused to fix a problem that was not my fault. “What do you want me to do?” with her hands thrown up in the air after I spent $75. I will not be back. She does not respect the community that is s paying her bills. The store is a cluttered mess. There’s stuff everywhere. Too many beauty supples to spend money where the customer is not valued. I wouldn’t recommend.”

“I love the owner, she's been there since 4ever. She's wonderful. Also, her son's come and help out at times, give mom a day off.. thier Asian, and the sweetest people you will ever meet. And the beauty shop has EVERYTHING! it's stacked wall to wall if you can't find what you're looking for in there. You're not looking.”

“This store is packed full of products. The staff is very nice, and we didn't feel like we were being followed but not helped. We will be shopping there again.”
