Textures

Apr 2022

Kinaya is hands down the most knowledgeable, friendly, giving stylist I have ever been to. So, to back up a bit -- I had gone to another stylist a few weeks ago who dyed my hair a color I didn't ask for. I asked for a vibrant purple and she gave me a dark marroon. I was pretty unhappy about it so I searched online for another salon and found Textures and made my appointment. It turns out the previous stylist used a permanent dye on my hair so the marroon/red was incredibly difficult to lift from my hair. An appointment schedueld for an hour and fifteen minutes turned into a four hour appointment because Kinaya was determined to dye my 4c hair the color I wanted without damaging it. She put in blue dye at first but the color didn't take and was barely visible. She then put in a red/fuschia/orchard mixture and it finally worked. But it was 4 hours by the time everything was said and done! She most definitely did not have to spend all of that effort and sent me away unhappy with the dark blue/black barely there color but she wasn't going to give up until I had a color that pops and she absolutely ended up giving me an amazing color. Not only that, she was very informative throughout the appointment, suggesting products, explaining how to care for my dyed hair, dispelling current hair myths and more. I can't recommend Kinaya highly enough! I am so glad I have a new stylist who is going to let me rock fashionable colors, can't wait to come back!
