This was a disappointing experience. I'm new to Arizona, and while in search of a hairstylist, I came across Remilaku on social media. I asked her about prices and styles and set an appointment.
After arriving at her salon, I felt claustrophobic. The space is very cluttered and more so staged as a living space, with couches and chairs; rather than a salon. There are handwritten signs on almost every surface advertising her side businesses, demanding payment and refusal of services.
After washing my hair, Remilaku told me I could go ahead and pay. That should have been a red flag as I have never paid for a service before it was complete. Nevertheless, I paid.
I knew the process would be long since this was a go-to style for me. After finishing, I looked it over and left. It wasn't until I looked closer that I noticed she did not style my hair as I requested.
I sent her a message with my concerns and I felt brushed off. I'm more upset that she put the " blame" on me for not clarifying, instead of informing me she didn't know the technique for Senegalese or rope twists.
Requested style: Senegalese or rope twists

7 hours to do 42 braids. I paid before service- Both the owner and the stylist had the picture of the style I paid for. When I showed The owner what was actually done she offered to have the same stylist fix it. I asked if she had pictures of that stylists work to show me that she could actually fix the style - then the owner started saying my hair was thin, gaslighting saying that the stylist did me a favor ..doing the braids this way because she didn't want to damage my "thin" hair or pull it out, and on and on &blaming me for being the "one of those customers"- So considering both owner and braider saw my hair prior to service and at the start of service - WHY did neither of them tell me it was "too thin" to do the style in the picture I had paid for??? At some point one of them should have told me they couldn't do it - and gave me some other options since I had already paid. The stylist seemed new and not handy doing cornrows. It took six plus hours to do 42 braids that are only 22 inches long. Side Note: chair is low so cannot see yourself during service in the backroom. I trusted that the stylist was doing what was in the picture because she never said your hair is too thin I need to do something else. I had no idea she was spacing cornrows several centimeters apart or doing a completely different pattern . The braider seemed sweet and doing her very best. I told her it looked fine from the front view, I'd see her again and I left.I hadn't seen the sides, top or back view... Don't mind paying her for her time, but I do the expect shop to help fix the style to make it worth what I paid. I'll end up having to buy wavy strands to make boho braids for coverage. These uncoordinated cornrows will be fuzzy soon and I'm out $200. The unprofessional part is that the owner really doesn't care, and would blame the client for a bad job. If the picture cannot be done why not tell the client. Don't just take the money and do something worth less.

The shop was uncomfortable because it looks like a hoarders house, and my daughter said her communication was rude. I think she’s only used to dealing with 4c hair, but my daughter doesn’t have 4c texture, so her handling was rough and left scabs in het scalp. She only needed a retwist of her locks. Not going to use her again.Service: Hairstyling

Remilaku's customer service is terrible. If I can give a negative 1 star I would. I remember walking in her salon with my son when I first moved to Tucson looking for a stylist to retwist my locs. She gave me the worst look like I was inconveniencing her!! I just left after reading her negative energy!! Yes.. I've read a few of the reviews and I am so sorry some people let her touch they're locs.. Tucson has a few people that are really good and can provide a better experience.

Now, I was not 100% certain of what to expect when my husband left for his appointment to get dreadlocs, but it definitely wasn't THIS. My husband HAD hair down to the middle of his back before he went in to get dreads. We researched and were prepared for a loss of inches but were NOT prepared for him to lose over 50% of his length. The locs were not locked and looked more like little rats nests - none were a consistent shape or size. After just a few days, they were unraveling and looking horrible. I had to go buy a crochet needle to help him lock them just so they'd stay. Looking at other pictures, it seems that she can do Caucasian hair, but I would've never paid for what he came home with. He is so excited to have dreads, but this was not what either of us had visioned.

I went in for a Yoni Steam. I was running a couple minutes past the time that I had scheduled for I'm in which she had told me right when I was getting ready to come in that it would be a $25 extra charge a late fee so because I knew that I was running behind I kind of just chalked it up to the game and just paid the $25 late fee with the intent that if I use their service again that I would make sure that I was running on time the Yoni steam service was superb by the time my Yoni steam service was done I decided that you know she has hair inside the store so I'll just go ahead and pick up my hair here and just give her more service. So I realized now that I'm getting ready to use the hair that I had actually picked up the wrong hair that I intended to use for the hairstyle and so I messaged her to see if I can come in and exchanged not get my money back not ask for a refund but simply to just exchange the hair for the hair that I actually did need the hair that I have it was never opened the packages are still intact I never use the hair to which she says all sales are final. So I say all of this to say you will definitely be better off using waba's or BBB fashion or any other hair store just in case you end up making a mistake like I did and picking up the wrong hair and just simply needing to exchange it those will be your better options I definitely would not go back and grab any hair from her unless you knew for a fact that was the hair that you needed.

I wanted starter locs but was turned down by multiple salons due to the shorter length of my hair. I'm so happy I found Remilaku! I sent her a picture of my hair and she was able to get me in the same day to start my locs. The foot, back and neck massage was a great bonus during and after service! She also gave me lots of advice for my hair and very friendly. Will be back again!Service: Dreadlocks
