I was in need of hair extensions so I called alternate styles and was telling her I would like the bead extensions (since that's what is listed under what she does.) well she told me she didn't want to do them because they hurt her hand but she can do a weave one instead. (I should've taken that first red flag, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt.) so I made an appointment and normally you have to order the hair for hair extensions but she had it all on hand (which is weird) . There was a previous review that I can't find now but cissy( owner) claims she uses real hair for her extensions but this other reviewer said she was straightening her hair and it melted. NO REAL HAIR SHOULD MELT AND SMELL LIKE PLASTIC. Anyways, so she starts to do my extensions (weave extensions) and I'm new to that so I was asking her questions and she said she does her own little twist on them . She was putting beads and who knows what else , in my hair. My head felt extremely heavy when she was done with it. I ended up not going back and a couple months later I had my husband take them out since I couldn't stand the rats nest that was created by the fake hair and whatever contraptions she put in there. It took him an hour and the hair finally came out (it was disgusting) . I don't recommend going here even tho it's incredibly cheap... (you get what you pay for). You'll end up losing hair and getting fake hair for your extensions. She somehow deleted all the bad reviews she previously had. Tread lightly with her. And her salon is out of her house.

Cissy is amazing! Let me start off by saying that I messaged her in a panic. I literally was having a hair catastrophe and was in the middle of a meltdown!!! I felt so self-conscious and so ugly and didn’t think anyone would be able to help me with my situation. Cissy was kind, understanding, and compassionate to me and made me feel like there was hope. She was patient and answered any doubts or questions I had and even sent pictures of the hair color she had to match mine.Not only did Cissy tone the hair for me before hand, but she also allowed me to change it up the day of the appointment- by adding in other colors to help it blend and also waves. When I got to her salon, she was loving and welcoming and not once did I feel embarrassed or uncomfortable. She literally told me “ I know how you feel” and got right to work. She holds conversation with you the whole time your there and has a great personality! I enjoyed every minute I was there!Once she finished she had me look and see if I wanted layers anywhere more or anything I thought that needed to be changed. She also told me if I decided I needed more hair to let her know and we could do that anytime. I felt like a whole new woman walking out of her salon! She brought back my confidence and my happiness. Cissy not only is a hair goddess/magician but she is a healer for many women. She didn’t just give me extensions, she gave me the power and confidence to get back out there and do ME once again. I felt like a beautiful unicorn prancing out of there whipping my hair around ha ha I love her!!!A few days after I did want to add more hair, so she booked me in fast and made my hair even better than before- if that’s was even possible!!! Thank you Cissy for your amazing talent and kindness… I’ll never go anywhere else again!Service: Hair extensions

I got my extensions done here in August and I had a really great experience. It was a very friendly and inviting atmosphere, Cissy was very sweet and fun. The prices are phenomenal, and she really does go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. I teased dealing with some extremely short hair that made me absolutely miserable. I was certain that it could not be fixed because of how short it was. However, I was able to go from having almost a boy haircut to having longer hair than I've ever had! I walked in there that day feeling insecure and embarrassed and I left feeling absolutely beautiful, feminine, and glamorous! Below I attached before and after pictures, I think that the difference speaks for itself. For me, this experience was much more than simply getting extensions installed It restored my self confidence so much! ? ?Services: Hairstyling

Friendly atmosphere. Always making sure my hair color is coming out great and making sure that if I need a extra touch she adds to it. I feel cissy goes that extra mile for you. Also she works hard at trying to get you in. I love going to her.

Best experience I've ever had at a hair salon, by far!! Cissy has done tape in extensions for me that came out amazing and lasted a really long time. When she added the red to my hair it blended perfectly with the tape ins!! She has also cut my hair and both times she gave me exactly what I wanted she cut off my split ends without taking off too much length. Which is amazing! I haven't wanted to trim my hair in years because of the bad experiences I've had at other salons with them cutting off too much of my hair && than I went to ALTERNARE STYLES && CISSY trimmed my hair perfectly. I'll never go to anyone else after meeting Cissy!!She is very friendly && knowledgeable when it comes to hair. I highly recommend ALTERNARE STYLES. You won't be disappointed. . ??Services: Hairstyling
