Street Kutz
2 reviews for Street Kutz
I visited this salon because a friend referred me. At first I was a bit skeptical because my hair is natural (meaning no perm to keep it straight) and salons usually charge way too much money to straighten it.
There is actually two parts to this salon, in the front there are men who cut hair and women who do locks and amazing weave jobs. The part that I visited was in the back, which is the area where you go to get a Dominican Blowout.
Once you enter (the back part) you let the lady know that you want a wash. Now this was very different to me because in Atl you have to sign a sheet and you choose your stylist. Although there was no sheet, there was also no confusion. The women actually remembered which order you came in.
There are about 3-4 women who work there. Three of the women just wash and roll, the other woman is the only one (from what I saw) that does the actual blowout.
I figured the woman who was washing my hair would look at me crazy because once again my hair is natural and often people think it is hard to maintain. But the lady didn't look at me strange, she just washed my hair and gave a great scratch/scrub job. She then combed my hair out fully and sent me to the lady that would be doing the rolling. The lady that rolled my hair did it in about 10 mins, which was great. And she made sure my hair was rolled tight. Natural haired women need their hair rolled tight if they want to loosen the natural curl pattern for the straightening process. After my hair was rolled I went under the hair dryer. In about a hour my hair was dry, I waited about 10 mins before it was my turn to get my hair blown out.
Once I got in the chair the lady tried to ask me how I wanted my hair. The reason I say tried is because they don't speak much english. I was just like whatever (because I'd seen the women's hair that left out, I knew it would be cute). I like how the stylist didn't go over my hair multiple times. She blowed through it once and it was completely straight.
My favorite part about this experience, is they only charged me $35 as my friend quoted. I thought they made a mistake, usually when I get it done in Atl its between $60-$70. Another plus is the whole process took only about two hrs. They did reccommend a deep conditioner ($5) the next time I visit. I took that statement with a grain of salt because I deep condition my hair on a regular and more importantly that would add to the overall time spent there (I have no patience).
I would definitely reccommend this salon (the Dominican area) to any and everybody, especially the naturl haired women. After about three weeks of having/maintaining my hair straight, I was ready to go back to the curly look. When I washed my hair it back to its natural state and I didn't have any heat damage.
Finding this place has been a life, hair, and definitely a money saver. Now when I want/need my hair straightened, I'm not going all the way back to Atl to get it done.
I Highly recommend Street Kutz Hair Salon because i visited for the first time recomended to me by a friend of mine, it was a HOT summer day!!! and i got my hair done beautifully i lovedddddddd it. i went out side 2 hours, 5, 9 and so on and my hair still looked the same!
