4 /5 Kymberli C.: Ive gotten my hair done at Flip Styles by Mirlanda twice now. The first installation was a side part with two bundles of her straight 20" hair. My current style is a middle part 18" and 20" traditional sew in with three of her straight bundles. Overall, Mirlandas technique is good. Her customer service is good, and she engages in good conversation. Her shop is always clean and so is her bathroom. I love that its a private suite and typically one client at a time. The first traditional sew in was nice to look at and was not painful. When taking it out, I had no issues. The only critique I have of that sew in was when I requested a black dye, she used a Revlon box dye (the kind from Walmart) I let her do it because I had a wedding to attend and it didnt occur to me to ask because usually stylist use better quality products. I also went to get a wash and retighten after a month and felt incomplete. The wash was something I should have done myself because after I got home, my scalp was still a little damp to touch. The second install seems to be better, but Im a little scared that when I take it out, the rubber band she put in my real hair underneath might tangle with my new growth. Ill most likely take this installation out after a month, just in case. I would go back to
Mirlanda but maybe be a bit more vocal about how I would like my foundation to be, braided with braiding hair added like she did with my first install since my natural hair is on the shorter side. I included pictures of what my foundation looked like underneath after I took my hair down. I got my install done on January 27th.
