Disappointed
I cannot rate this establishment based upon their salon or spa services, however, I can rate them on their public relations. I am a current non-traditional student at UI. I stopped in to see about a haircut. As a Black woman I already know the fear that exists in doing "our" hair, but as a former stylist myself, I do know that I was trained in doing ALL types of hair. I stood and waited at least five minutes and was never acknowledged (one stylist came out looked at me from head to toe and rolled her eyes) then another woman who came in after me was asked if she could be helped. I try not to chalk everything up to racism, but I haven't felt that hurt or discriminated against in a long time. Even if you don't do "our" hair you can be respectful. I can afford to go there every week and have several services done, but based upon that experience, I will NEVER spend a dime in that place.
