Sometimes you just don't want to deal with your natural hair by yourself. I tried out Essentially Shane's and I'm pleased with my results. The shop was small but not very crowded, which I liked. I made an appointment and didn't wait an obscene amount of time. I'm kind of a nervous natural, and I dont get my hair straightened a lot, but i tried it out since i'm going out of town and I'm glad i came. I'm kind of opposed to Dominican-style blowouts because of all the unnecessary heat, pulling and breakage that it causes, so i was happy that coming here was

Got my hair done by her and it didn't turn out bad.. but prior to the appointment I told her my hair was NATURAL! Meaning no heat whatsoever... and she continued to say she wouldn't do my hair because it wasn't straight enough or "detangled" and I responded all it needs is water and some leave in if it gets a little hard to manage.. anywho.. I let her blow dry it but I will never go back.

They took me without an appointment and I didn't have to wait for other clients!! The owner does all styles and doesn't double book!! Very nice family owned business. I'll be returning definitely!!

I love Shane's. First, it is so convenient. She has long hours and you can book your appointments electronically. I've never had to wait a few minutes for my appointment. She cut my natural hair about six months ago into a tapered style and did a great job. I've started taking my daughter to her as well. She really cares about the health of your hair. She executes many natural styles so flawlessly. I really enjoy visiting this salon. Did I mention it is so easy to book an appointment online!
