We found this salon thru a website called mixedchicks. It is one of the only salons that carry a product for mixed ethnicticites. I have been to numerous salons over 13 years to try to learn how to style and "tame" my 13year olds wild hair. We have been all over the east coast and everywhere in between, to no avail. We have been told by "White" salons to go to "Black" salons, and "Black salons tell us to go to "White". We have gone to many and the stylist have been lacking of the knowledge of how or what to do to my daughters hair. Not for lack of trying, but often did more damage than good. We stopped in today to check it out and ask questions. We were blessed to meet Abra one of the stylist. She gave us a free consultation and took my daughter to her chair and I belive a miracle was performed!!! My daughters hair is long, curly, dry, thick and matted. When Abra was finished I did not reconize my daughter. She had her hair more beautiful than I have EVER seen it. She took her time, explained how to maintain and the follow up care that my daughter needed and when to maintain her goregous now long straight silky shining hair. My daughter said after,it felt like her head had lost weight. It was lighter and so pretty. She couldn't stop running her fingers through her hair! We drove over an hour and 1/2 to get to Shi Salon and will be going back!!! This young pretty lady Abra made my daughters year. I would recommend no other salon for mixed ethnic young and old alike. Abra and the others at the salon made us feel welcome and appreciated our bussiness. I wish all salons would take a lesson on Customer Service from these ladies!!! There Trully is no finer salon East of West. Beautiful contemporary yet "homey" feel. The prices were very reasonable!!! Want to look like a Queen make and appointment at Shi Salon. There hours are great and the ladies are really AWESOME!!! SO much bought a gift cert. Thank-you Abra and Shi. Sheila Lamczyk
