Shefinessecosmetics 575 Salon

Shefinessecosmetics 575 Salon sits on Clarendon Rd in Brooklyn, in a neighborhood of shops and restaurants. Services are grouped into three areas on the salon's booking site: Natural Hair Kingdom, Cut Life Kingdom and Chemical Kingdom. The salon is open Tuesday and Wednesday from 8:40 am to 7:00 pm, Friday and Saturday from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm, and is closed Monday, Thursday and Sunday.

Natural Hair Kingdom covers texture protective styling, which includes locs and other styles starting at $200. The service begins with a clarifying wash and detangling, followed by deep conditioning, a blowout and custom natural twists. It usually takes about 1 hour 40 minutes or more. The base price assumes standard length and density; extreme detangling, extra long hair, and Olaplex or K18 bond-repair add-ons are extra and are set at the initial consultation. Silk press services start at $130 and include a custom shampoo, professional blowout and silk press styling, usually taking about 2 hours or more. Silk press is priced as maintenance for established, recurring clients, and the final price can change with hair density and length. New silk press clients receive a baseline texture evaluation, a moisturizing wash, heat protection, a precision blowout and the silk press finish. Add-on services start at $25 and take about 10 minutes or more.

A consultation is required before booking either one, and new clients booking chemical services pay a $25 consultation that takes about 30 minutes. Color is custom and planned around the client's hair history and goals, beginning with a strand evaluation, bond protection and a foundational finish. The base price includes one bowl of color or lightener; extra bowls for thick or long hair, and multi-process work such as vibrants and toners, carry an additional product fee. Relaxer services focus on new growth up to one inch, with a neutralizing treatment, deep conditioning and standard foundational styling, and usually take about 2 hours or more. The price rises for longer new growth or custom premium styling.

Cut Life Kingdom covers precision pixie cuts starting at $350. A new client pixie package includes a detailed consultation, mapping of hair growth patterns, a structural precision haircut, a custom mold and style, and an introductory premium backbar treatment. Existing pixie clients have a maintenance wash, conditioning, wrap or mold, and style every two to four weeks. Extended regrowth or major restructuring cuts for pixie clients are billed at standard haircut rates. A pixie cut usually takes about 1 hour or more.
