U'nique Stylez Salon in Des Moines, WA

Shara and Ayesha are top notch, 100% the best stylists in our area. I have locs, and I go to Shara for my loc maintenance. She takes the ultimate care to protect and nurture your hair while achieving precise and beautiful loc maintenance and styles. My hair has grown tremendously since I began going to Shara and Ayesha. My previous stylist was really nice, but she was rolling/twisting my locs too tightly after each maintenance. I believe that's probably why my hair didn't achieve the growth and health that it should have...because she was placing too much stress on the hair roots. You won't run into that problem with Shara and Ayesha. The salon has a professional and relaxed atmosphere, and everyone there is always in good spirits with great humor. And the background music is always on point. I have to admit that I tend to fall asleep while I am getting my hair done, but that's how chill the vibe is at the salon. I was hesitant to add this review because I wanted to recognize what a great place this was and how skilled Shara and Ayesha are. Most definitely, I highly recommended this salon. However I kinda wanted to keep this gem of a salon to myself because I don't want everyone running there after I post this. I need to be able to book my monthly loc maintenance! But I'm willing to share because I know how difficult it is to find fantastic stylists who will care for your hair. So I am doing the right thing by letting others in on my good fortune. Book your appointment today!

I had made an appointment for Flat Twist braid style. I am an Indian, and based on my hair length and texture I was guided in the right direction to go with corn rows. I asked about appropriation and made sure I was not being culturally insensitive. I shed a tear when I saw the final outcome. I love it!! Massive shout out to Shara who did a phenomenal job. I just can't recommend her and the team enough. Very nice, warm and welcoming ladies who run the establishment with enthusiasm and have fun while doing what they love. Go ahead and book your next salon visit here. You won't be disappointed.

New building nice hair stylist. She has all the PP&E available. Clean and cozy the hair stylist is very kind and helpful with knowing your hair.

Ayesha is now by Southcenter Mall inside Sola Salon Studios. Go pay her a visit! ---- Kris is gone. Ayesha now has stylist Eka, who used to work at Good Hair Salon in Seattle. Eka does awesome styles and twists. I'm comfortable in seeing her if Ayesha is booked. ----- I've been following Ayesha, the owner, for years from place to place. So happy she has her own salon. There is another woman who works for her, Kris, who also does nails. Ayesha specializes in natural hair - braids, twists, locs, weaves, etc. I know she will not let me leave looking like a hot mess. She also is by far, the best when it comes to hair cuts. She's done everything from a trim to a bob to the Big Chop on me. It's sometimes hard to schedule an appointment with her, so be sure to plan ahead.

My sister wanted locs so I scheduled a consultation with Ayesha back in early March. She told us that it would be $85, which was a good price. Our dad passed away March 21, so dealing with that, my sisters 11th birthday was on April 27th so I booked an appointment with Ayesha for April 23 at Noon. She wanted locs for her birthday. The day comes, I took a couple hours off of work and pulled my sister out of school all day. We get to the salon 20mins early and the shop was closed. There was another guy waiting to see Ayesha as well, he told me his appointment was at 11. Ayesha messaged me while in there asking if I can come later at 230 or the next day because she had time...... I told her that I was already here and pulled my sister out of school for this appointment. I asked her if she had a Saturday available. No response. Again, I'm inside the shop with my sister and we was waiting for a response. Enough time passed and I messaged her nevermind we'll find someone else. She responded "okay" right away. Now I was pissed off, I took work off and pulled my sister out of school the whole day, just so she can get locs for her birthday. Like I told Ayesha in text, she was unprofessional as fuck.. As a professional and common courtesy, if you're not going to make it, give a phone call or a text message as soon as you know, not less than 20mins before an appointment! On top of that, there was a guy already waiting there since 11AM, so she knew she wasn't going to make it. No excuse. That was bullshit and I hope this review finds somebody.
