5 /5 Enasha Anglade: Id like to share my experience and results of my visit at Fusion salon. So I was recommended by a good friend to try this new Dominican spot to get my hair done for my baby shower. I dont like straightening my hair as I am 4c(?) Natural and Florida weather is so humid. This weekend in particular I wasnt even going to go because it had been raining all day and has been raining since (got my hair done September 22nd. Today is the 29th). So needless to say, natural hair getting straightened in rainy weather is no good. But I wanted to look nice for my baby shower even if it was going to be for one day. I asked the lady (Winnie) if there was any treatment I could do to make my hair last just a bit longer than usual. My hair was in horrible condition as u will see in the pictures. Super dry. Hadnt had a trim in over a year. Just left conditioner in it and would slick it back with gel and thats it. Pregnancy didnt help my hair (Im 8.5 months). It made it worse. So when she suggested the hair Botox I figured why not. It has been a while since I gave myself and my hair love so I decided to spend the extra money since I had done a bit of research on hair Botox anyway and wanted to try it out eventually. Winnie talked me through the whole process, educating me on the benefits and what it would do to my hair and how this was a better option compared to keratin (which I had tried in the past) since I am pregnant and it is chemical free. I was sold when she told me I wouldnt lose my natural hair texture. It would just have less of the dry frizz because my cuticles would be nourished and it would be locked in and sealed.
I am so happy I decided on going with her suggestion. She had to reassure me a few times that the end result would be worth the questionable in-between I saw in the mirror. But, a week later and my hair is as silky and straight as it was when I left the salon. Humidity and rain and all. Obviously I am not wetting my hair. I put a bonnet cap on at night. I havent even wrapped it once. Not even the night of though she suggested I did. I cant stop touching my hair. Just like Winnie said would happen. I play with my hair all the time. I feel like a white girl fresh from the salon. No offense. But for a black girl to feel that way when just last week her pregnancy mane was a dry and tangled mess amidst rainy and humid Florida weather means a BUNCH. IDK how my hair would have faired with a regular blowout but I know this hair Botox is the truth. I am a bit eager to see if my hair really will go back to my regular natural hair when I finally wet it (just healthier of course) so thatll be the tell tale sign that this hair Botox is legit. But at this point what Winnie has told me has held true so I have faith that this isnt a relaxer in disguise.
If youre looking for a good Dominican spot to get ur hair done in the area, give this place a try. Especially if you want to try the hair Botox thats been gaining popularity. You wont be disappointed. Mind you, I have NEVER written a review before and I had to let some time go by to make sure this was worth the time. And it is. I approve. And I will be back for my protein treatment. Suggested by Winnie. And I knew I needed one. Thats how I know shes not lying to me just to get more money in her pocket. She knows her hair.
Fyi the last three pictures are of my hair today. I showed my car window to prove its been raining and how fabulous my hair still looks. Oh also, I havent put a flat iron to my hair once since last week. Not even for a touch up. I just take my black bonnet cap off, flip my hair to the side, maybe, then walk out the door.
Edit: pictures uploaded funny but the pics of me in the car in the pink are the ones of my hair today.
