Meme took me in last minute, and gave me exactly what I asked for. She was kind, her prices were great, and my hair looks amazing. The parts are perfectly straight, the curls are exactly how I wanted them to be, the length is great and my head still feels light and isn't pounding from being braided too tight. She listened when I told her what I wanted and how I wanted it, and it was an overall great experience. I'll definitely be back.
