★★★☆☆ 3.0 Hope Nation · Feb 2026

This is my second time here. Pretty disappointed, because just like the first time i was put with any random stylist. Two stylists actually. The lady who washed and blew my hair was nice, we had a conversation about the current status of my hair that was helpful. My biggest issue I had with her was the Detangling of my hair. I have fine 4a hair and she did not take her time whatsoever, which leads to breakage and that’s not cool. The same with the blow drying, she was just yanking my hair. I think she was actually the owner. The girl who completed my silk press was pretty much quiet, the whole time no type of friendly demeanor. That’s why I knocked off a star. The reason why I knocked off another star was because when I asked the price the day before, I was told $175 for the olaplex treatm

Horrible … I went in for a traditional sew in my appointment was for 3:30 PM. However, there was a regular client who booked the same time as me, but with another hairstylist because she made a mistake so the regular person who does her hair, which was the one who was supposed to do my hair the stylist took her regular customer before me therefore I had to wait almost 3 hours after my scheduled time. So when it was FINALLY my turn the stylist just played in my hair with the remaining time I told her I had more than three bundles. She continues to put the back of the bundles in the middle of my head when there was no room so by the time she got to the front, I said I have more hair to put so now my hair is packed in the front and thin in the back. The foundation sucks. I have big old braids

Hi! I just finished my appointment at The Beauty Cave. I got a wash, deep condition, and silk press. This is not my first time at the salon. I continue you make appointments because the hair stylist listen to what I want for the most part. The young women at the desk was very welcoming and held good conversation. My stylist was Cadene she was also very kind and did great work! Will definitely be back again!

Service: Wash/Blow/Trim with Deep Condition Treatment This was my first time at this salon and I am well pleased. My stylist was Sharmane and she did a great job. She really took her time during the wash, making sure to really massage my scalp. Then, when she began to detangle, she worked from the ends up. For the blow dry, she did a thorough job. And finally, for the trim, she took off exactly what needed to come off. Not any more, not any less. SB: The reason I did not give 5 stars is because my appointment time was 1:30pm and we did not start until 1:55pm.

PLEASE don’t go here if you care about your NATURAL hair. I came in hoping to find a salon that specialized in natural hair, but I was sadly mistaken. If I could give ZERO stars, I would! The music was way too loud for a morning appointment, but that wasn’t even the worst part. I originally booked with a specific stylist (based on their instagram videos is how I chose because she specialized in NATURAL HAIR). When I arrived, the girl at the front casually said she wasn’t there without clarifying that the stylist I booked with no longer worked there. Instead, she directed me to another stylist saying “She’s just as talented.” That’s where everything went downhill. I asked for a simple cleanup and showed her pictures oh myself… with wispy bangs and all she had to do was freshen up my ha
