Tru Rootz Complete Natural Hair and Barber Studio

No regard for customers time. After speaking with barber over the phone whom I told I needed a cut before 7pm told me to come now (4pm) as if he had an open slot right away. After getting there and speaking with the barber who confirmed he would be cutting my hair before I even made it inside of the salon, I entered, signed in and sat down. After waiting for almost 2 hours without being acknowledged about how much longer I would have to wait, I left. As I requested over the phone I had to be somewhere at 7pm.

I will swear by Sistah Safi every day, all day, and I’ve only seen her twice.
I have had a heck of a time finding a stylist that suits me for natural hair in NOLA. I previously went to Beauty on de Bayou, which proved to be hit or miss depending on the stylist, and I just couldn’t make it work.
I went to Sistah Safi at Tru Rootz after a recommendation from a friend. She did my hair in a corn-​rowed updo for my wedding and another time for a protective style. Her work was creative and thorough, and I loved that she took the time to explain her styling philosophy as she was working with me. I was so happy with the end result, I called my husband on the way home just to tell him that I would definitely have to return! And I have.
I have no experience with the other stylists, as Safi is the only one I’ve dealt with, but they were nice when I entered the shop. The shop is clean and orderly and I felt safe and comfortable while I was there (notable, because my appointment began at 10:30 pm on a weekend). Safi has reduced her days at the salon due to other commitments, but she is always so helpful with scheduling appointments. Mention to her that you are a teacher and some styles are discounted.
