on Citysearch Nov 25, 2009When you have a great haircut, you can wear rags or riches and always look terrific. When you have someone who knows hair, who can look at your face and complement it with a cut that looks as good on day 45 as it does on day 1,... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 18, 2009f you are thinking about going to see KYLE, RUN DON'T WALK! I got a Locks of Love hair cut and I was very nervous as I have always had long hair. Kyle made it simple and easy, and made me laugh the whole time. Cut four pony... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 26, 2009I came to Betty wearing a baseball hat every time she saw me for hair color. One day she told me that if I did the Yuko Japanese Hair Relaxer, I could have the long, silky hair I had always desired...rather than the course,... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 26, 2009I was ready to cut off the long hair I have had all of my life. It is EXTREMELY nappy, frizzy and completely unruly. When I was younger, my hair was naturally curly but as I got older the curls turned to ugly frizz. I called... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 26, 2009I started going to Betty well before she moved to Dekwa. My entire family, 3 of my friends, even my boss goes to her for color, cuts, relaxers, conditioning treatments, and the best blowdry ever! I started doing the... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 22, 2009My experience with Betty was horrible. First of all, the girl at the front desk quoted me one price but once I got in the salon on the day of the appointment Betty quote a much higher price. She promised me I would just have... (more)

on Citysearch May 02, 2009Kwan has been my stylist for quite a while now, probably about 5+ years. She is truly a great stylist and obviously very skilled and knowledgeable in her chosen profession. What makes me keep going back to Kwan is her... (more)

on Citysearch Apr 25, 2009My hair has always been just ok. But since I have started coming to Deneen people are constantly complimenting me on my hair style -- even this past week 2 days before I was getting my haircut again after 3 months. That... (more)

on Citysearch Mar 12, 2009I was so excited to go to DeKwa after all the reviews I has read, but it was so disappointing for me. I wanted a big change, nice and stylish, and all I got was shorter hair. Seriously. It just looked like my old hair but much... (more)

on Citysearch Jan 09, 2009I got a terrible cut from Kwan... very disappointing. She did the opposite of what I asked for and it is just the worst cut I have ever had. I'd have someone fix it but it needs to grow before I can do that... fortunately my... (more)

on Citysearch Dec 15, 2008I am so late in posting this that I am embarassed. Anyway, Kyle gave me a great cut back in September after I gave up 10 inches of my hair. What did I end up with? Something I can style into business chic or Gwen Stefani Rave... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 25, 2008I just had my first haircut at Dekwa. My cut was done by Deneen and it is without any doubt the best haircut I have ever gotten on this side of the Atlantic. I have fairly thick, semi-straight hair, and Deened did a... (more)

on Citysearch Sep 08, 2008For the past 3 years I was growing out my hair to donate to Locks of Love. When I finally decided to get the cut done, I chose DeKwa as I knew that they were one of the salons that would send the hair to Locks of Love for me. So... (more)
