"When I walked into A 髮型 Hair Salon on 135 E Broadway at 5:24 P.M., I was immediately ushered to a salon chair in the back of the room, where a woman started washing my hair. This is usually my favorite part of the entire hair salon experience - relaxing and spa-like. Unfortunately, this time was a little bit different."
"The woman had razor-sharp nails and scratched at my scalp for 6 minutes straight. It was honestly painful enough in some spots that I worried my head might start bleeding. For the next 12 minutes, she alternated between scratching and massaging my head, which I definitely enjoyed more, while she washed the shampoo and conditioner out of my hair."
"I would also like to add that my experience with the wash station was not all bad, and that while it may have been a bit rough, I may not have ever had my hair cleaned so thoroughly."
A customer visited A 髮型 Hair Salon in Manhattan's Chinatown to experience the viral $25 blowout service after seeing numerous TikTok videos about it. Concerned about the lack of representation for thick, curly hair in promotional content, the customer proceeded with the service. The wash experience involved a six-minute scalp scrubbing with sharp nails that caused pain, followed by alternating scratching and massaging for twelve minutes. A shoulder massage also proved uncomfortable. Despite the rough handling, the hair was cleaned thoroughly. The customer subsequently met with a stylist for additional services including a haircut, making the final visit cost exceed the advertised $25 price point.
