1 /5 Carly Kreitzberg: If you have curly hair, look elsewhere. I am thankful that Kayla was able to squeeze me in last minute, but she used a technique on my curls that destroyed my hair.
Backstory: I tried trimming my own ends but then decided it was best to have a professional do it. I looked at a few salons in the neighborhood and I chose Omnia because of the positive Google reviews.
I arrived asking for a trim, but since I have curly hair and was recovering from another bad haircut, I expressed concerns over how heavy certain sections were. She asked if she wanted me to “thin it out” so I trusted her and said sure. She went in and used a technique where she twisted portions of my hair and snipped it down the twist (I’m assuming to lighten the denser parts?).
I told her I wear my hair both curly and blown out/straight, so as I saw her cutting like this I asked how it would look straight and she said it would be fine. When I straightened my hair this weekend, I was horrified. All the short pieces she cut into stick out like wires. I have random strands of hair that are anywhere from 2-6 inches just popping out when I straighten it. This will take years to grow out. I really cannot wear my hair straight until it does so. Extremely disappointing. I do not recommend Kayla for a haircut if you have curly hair.
