IAMNEEKSTYLES

Hair salon in Raleigh, NC

IAMNEEKSTYLES is a salon run by owner Taneka Newkirk, who holds a license as a master stylist and works as a cosmetology educator. Services span relaxed and natural hair, chemical treatments, color, shampoos and blowouts, and protective styling including braids, twists, locs and crochet installations. Many prices already cover hair, and several services are labeled as natural hair or chemical-free options. To book, email iamneekstyles@gmail.com or call 919-789-1327 with your name, preferred date and time, and the services you want. Replies can take 48 to 72 hours, and messages sent over a weekend get a response on the next business day. First-time clients pay a $25 deposit and complete an online consultation before the booking is confirmed. The deposit is non-refundable and is kept if the appointment is cancelled. Cancelling within 24 hours incurs no charge. Cancelling six or more hours ahead costs 50% of the service total or $35, whichever is higher. Cancelling with less than six hours' notice means the full service total is charged. Children are allowed in the salon only while they are receiving a service. Clients are asked to arrive on time, since detailing takes time. The salon also runs education programs. One-on-one preparation for the North Carolina State Board exam is available in written or practical form. A combination course covers cosmetology and natural hair care specialization, and an instructor exam prep course includes three virtual sessions and one in-person session. Eligible participants are cosmetology students, natural hair care students, licensed cosmetologists, and licensed barbers who have finished the state-required hours.
