Excellent! I've been going to Flash and Flare Healthy Hair for over 17 years now for all my hair care needs. My hair always comes out looking its best every time I go in for an appointment. Marlena really takes the time to make sure my hair not only looks its best, but that it is healthy and clean, which I very much appreciate!

I visited Flash and Flare Hair Salon for what I believed would be a simple appointment: a style with a flat iron. When I arrived, I explained to the stylist that my hair was damaged and I needed a trim nothing drastic, just a clean-up of the ends and a flat iron. The stylist consulted with the owner who then examined my hair and agreed that I needed a trim and recommended a protein treatment. I was fine with that suggestion and agreed to the treatment. However, what happened next was shocking and deeply upsetting. While I expected a trim, the manager took it upon herself to continue cutting without clearly explaining her intentions. By the time she finished, I was left with a pixie cut. At no point was I told that my trim would turn into a full-on transformation. I was never asked if I wanted a pixie cut, and I certainly did not give consent for such a drastic change to my appearance. After the treatment and mold down, the cutting continued. It became obvious that not only was the style nothing like what I expected, but the final cut was uneven. The sides were shaved, but they were not symmetrical one side was clearly shorter than the other. I left the salon not only shocked by my new look but also disappointed in the lack of communication and the disregard for my wishes plus the amount of what I paid. I’m writing this review to caution others: be very clear and firm about what you want before allowing anyone to start working on your hair.

First let me tell you how AWFUL I feel for forgetting the young lady's name who serviced me on Saturday 2/1/25. She did a WONDERFUL job! It was my first time and it was last minute. Kymani (sp?) She's a student at NCCU. . . Amazing! Then another sweet angel recommended products. I'll definitely be back!
