joy

I splurged on a Devacut for my 45th birthday. After so many years of struggling with my naturally curly hair, I was excited for a change. However, my experience with Joy was less than desirable. Although I think that she gave me a good cut, her attitude was very off-putting. Not only was she almost 30 mins. late to the appointment, but she was also quite rude throughout my time in her salon. At first, I chalked it up to her having a bad day (which is still an unprofessional way to interact with a client), but later, after mentioning to a few people about my experience with her, a couple shared their disappointment with their experiences with her. I will not return to her salon.

I never understood the gift of having curly hair until I started going to Joy just over 2 years ago. Up until this point, I simply did my best to try and either “manage” my curls or make them conform to straight-hair principles (which equals a frizzy, unruly mess). Joy has totally changed all of this for me with her expert styling and education in the ways of curly hair. Joy knows exactly and precisely how to cut each individual curl and which DevaCurl products to apply in order to maximize the full potential of my curls. On top of her skill and artistry, Joy is also the consummate professional. She is always prompt and responsive with all business tasks and correspondence and her space is extremely clean and inviting. Joy works very efficiently and is 100% focused on me and my curls during appointments. After years of feeling unsure about my curly hair, it’s now something that I fully embrace and feel so extremely proud of. Thank you, Joy; I feel so lucky to have you!

I went to a hair show with my uncle (who is a barber); these hair shows are to teach hair dressers about new products and to keep their licensing up to date. Stylists come in from all over to do the trainings. I went by the DevaCurl booth and one of the men at their booth was giving me high praise for my hair. I thanked him and told him I would relay it to my stylist. He looked surprised ... he thought THEY had done my hair that morning! Thanks Joy!!! I've spent years trying to tame my curls (and feel like I have tried every hair care product on the market). A couple of different people recommended DevaCurl so I figured I would give it a try. I bought the beginner kit (with the book and the trial size products) and used those for a about a year. That lead me to Joy. I have been seeing Joy for a few years now ... and people who have known me most of my life say that I have finally found products and a stylist who understands my hair. I'm so glad I found Joy!
