5 /5 Rose Patricia (Fun and learning for kids): Sonya Dean saved me. I took my 12-year-old grandson to Utica mall on a Saturday. When we got home, and his hair dried, he was mortified. He said, grandma, I look like an old lady. They were supposed to put a few highlights in his black hair. They put in so many highlights that his hair almost looked gray. And his hair was supposed to be layered, once it dried we also realized his layers were, for a lack of a better word, weird. According to Sonya, it was because the layers they were supposed to leave long, in the back, they cut short, the ones they were supposed to cut short, the front, they left long. It didnt look good. It broke my heart. We had a picture of what he was looking for, but the hairstylist at the mall barely looked at it.
So, Sunday, I was in a panic. He couldnt go to school on Monday looking like that. We took him to Walmart, but they were all booked for the day. I frantically looked online and found Sonya. Not only did she work us in, but with in minutes, she had his hair looking the way he wanted it. She was kind enough to take the picture, and compared it to his hair as she cut. She also said she did the highlights, for less than what we paid. I was put to ease as soon as we walked into her shop because my sister-in-law was in there getting her hair permed. Sonya was a true lifesaver. I left her a nice tip, and she above and beyond deserved it. I would highly recommend her!
