Men Straight Back Cornrows
by Musette Blankenship
Musette is an awesome stylist. This is my second time here. My hair is already showing improvement. I cut my locs off, then added a texturizer that ...completely destroyed and thinned out my hair. My hair is also probably only an inch long in some places. None of that mattered to her. She still braided all my hair and designed it πŸ₯ΉπŸ™‚ I'm so tender headed, but I think she cured that for me as well cause I don't even feel like my hair got touched, let alone braided. The only time I felt anything was during the amazing hair wash with set conditioning & the most relaxing scalp massage she gives before she starts styling your hair. πŸ€— I think she got some sort of magic that after the wash & massage, your scalp goes into a very relaxing, almost numb state where you don't even feel your hair being done. The music is the best Playlist, if you're not singing, you're probably sleeping lol. I love it here. I'm definitely bringing my family for just the wash alone cause every scalp needs this treatment. Thanks so much for an awesome experience Γ—2πŸ’ˆπŸ€πŸ”₯πŸ”₯πŸ€πŸ’ˆ Show more

Palm Roll Maintenance
by Musette Blankenship
Musette is one of, if not the best experience I have had with a loctician. She was so gentle with her hands that I fell asleep during my retie. She ha...s a lovely personality and a clean and calm environment. Told her immediately I would be back for my next retie. My fiance's appointment was right after mine. He also said it was the best his hair has looked. His retwist and rope style was looking JUST RIGHT when he got home! Show more
