I know the feeling hun, and trust me I have been to every kind of salon. It took me 33 years to find Melonnie. And you're welcome.. I love referring people to her because I can't say enough good things about her skills.

I haven't seen her do braids or anything like that so I'm not sure if that's on her roster of skills (it wouldn't surprise me if it was), but as far as cutting, wet styling, rollersetting, etc. she's gold.
Hehe.. yeah you better believe it!
