Xuemei Hair Salon — Local services in Howick

Horrible salon ever.. First time came here because I was at China town for shopping. The lady (the stylists) cut my hair totally wrong with what I show her. I have long straight hair, (it was), until this lady cut wrong, she cut very short which is it's not what I show to her. I show her the photo style of the hair that I want. I show her how long she will cut ( I point to my hair), she said 'yes', understand. But then she keep cutting my hair shorter and shorter, I even told her not too short please.. I have to stop her cutting. Otherwise she will keep cutting short up to shoulder. I'm so upset and Disappointed. I have my long hair for my whole life, I never has a short hair cut, until today! Arrived home, I'm crying as a hell..! Really not...

I've had better haircuts in random alleys of India for 5 bucks. The hair stylist was obscenely slow and distracted. The place has a sour milk stench and reminds me of when I was a McDonalds patty flipper. I seriously think my airways need serious medical attention. Worst of all she would not even answer any of my questions and pretend not to hear me whenever I asked a question, the blurry mirror didn't let me see how the hair cut was going and when I went home and looked in the mirror I was on the verge of tears. The whole process was painful and it looked like my hair was trimmed with a cheese grater. My hair looks like hay from a barn. I wasted good money and time to come here and I would send my worst...

Not all heroes wear capes. But my friend wears capes for two full weeks after his $20 haircut here. The haircut was so bad that my friend developed PTSD syndrome and even attempted suicide at one stage. Luckily he was scouted by the Fo Guang Shan temple and became one of the monks there after removed all of his hair from the haircut disaster.

Definitely not recommend this salon to anyone unless you want to have a taste of what depression...
