I recently went to Peter for hair extensions. I have had extensions in the past so know what to expect by way of pain and adjustment to the extensions. When I left the salon with the professional blow out, they looked really nice. Once I washed and blow dried my hair on my own, the extensions were incredibly noticeable. I have curly dark brown hair - the extensions that were added to my hair were straight and black. In the slightest bit of humidity, my natural hair would curl up, while the extensions would remain completely straight. I could not put my hair back - because they were several extensions that were visible on the sides of my head making me very self conscious. I honestly could have lived and dealt with all of this but after about a week of wearing the extensions, my head started itching uncontrollably, my scalp became extremely irritated, and they started to rip out my natural hair. When I went to the salon to discuss these issues, Peter told me that this was normal for hair to be ripped out and that he could put a solution in my hair for the itching. As I've said before, I've had hair extensions several times in the past, and this type of pain and discomfort are never normal. He also said that he could dye the hair to match my natural color - I have plain dark brown hair that has never been dyed. Why would i want to start this process now when he could have just ordered the correct color from the beginning?
I went to another salon (one that specializes in extensions) for a second opinion and was told that the extensions were not at all properly put in my hair. This salon removed my extensions and put in a new set...I have had zero itching and not the slightest bit of discomfort. This experience cost me $700 and want to alert others before they make this same mistake at this salon!!!
