Kimarie Teter/Hairlocs

It is scary and unfortunately, but what all you girls are saying is true about KiMarie. From Fraud, to signing the contract, TO NOT BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE for anything. If I ever was so crazy to pay even 1/10th of KiMarie's "Price", I wouldn't be happy with a ***hair installer than lies about her celebs and takes no responsibility for her actions. You want great hair? You want someone who "trained" under KiMarie and saw her baloney, no matter how finely KiMarie tried to slice it? Easter Carrillo 323-356-5856. Call before she goes to Brasil. She even teaches YOU, the Client how to do your own hair. She said, "I will not ruin anyone's hair...And if I do, I am liable for that and you can seek relief in the courts. If there is any problem with my version of Hairlocs, I WILL REFUND your money immediately.
If you like it and want to save money and time and do your own hair, I'll teach you how to do them."

How's that for taking responsibility and just being a human being to another human being...

After researching and hearing so much dissatisfaction with fusion and the loc method I've decided on the hair police method.You dont have to worry about glues or metal coils damaging your hair

Hi all. I'm new here. I've been looking into getting some high quality extensions. I was planning on getting Great Lengths, but then I stumbled across Hair Locs. I was going to schedule a consultation with KiMarie, but when I did some research on her, I found this message board. THANK GOD! Thank God for HER, because I'm going to law school and if she tried any of that bait and switch crap on me, I'd call the police, make a report and pay her what I was quoted. She should be reported to the Better Business Bureau and the Attorney General if she indeed is doing what I've heard here. Then she'll lose her license to do business in California. She can NOT make you pay for more than what is in the contract. Those of you that can prove that she quoted one price and forced you to pay another, can take her to court, if the Statute of Limitations of filing a claim is not up. That is complete bullsh!t.

Anyway, I called Easter to see if she can do them for me(I'm waiting for a call back). But (and no offense here) there's only one person that is touting her services. My boyfriend is paying for them, but that means nothing if they mess my hair up. I am mixed and have thick hair. I am getting this done because I am tired of getting weaves that don't let me wear my hair in different styles. And then when my boyfriend puts his hands in my hair, he can feel the tracks, no matter how good it LOOKS. My hair is auburn, and I am a bit concerned about the "green effect" of the Hairlocs (not like you can hide green in any color hair).

If anyone here does Great Lengths (or something close to that) well and for a good price, you will have my business forever and the business of all my friends as well. Thanks!

I do fusion and links (not hair locks).

My prices are pretty firm at $500 for a full if 18" hair.

I'm located in Huntington Beach (Orange County)

Wow, the snowball is really rolling against Kimarie. Please keep in mind that the posts here do not reflect everyones experience with Kimarie. As I posted earlier, mine was excellent and I know a great number of clients who are also very happy with her services. Though I feel bad for those whose experience was negative, it is really disheartening hearing all the new people who are being scared away from meeting her.

The other side of the Kimarie story (and there is always more than one side, right?) is that she is honest, caring, professional and extremely talented. The best. If I didn't feel this way I would not be recommending my friends to her who are so impressed with my extensions. Again, I expect some hair damage in the long run but that is not Kimarie's fault..it is mine for wanting nice hair so much that I'm willing to take the risk.

Listen to all the sides but make a decision for yourself after meeting her. It was well worth it for me. Good luck.

Another bad Hairlocs review:

http://www.enhancementmedia.com/cgi-bin/beauty/index.cgi?noframes;read=48721

In the thread is a link leading to photos of her damaged hair and also the green hair the Hairlocs shells cause.

And Cait - I see you're in the keratin.com thread posting as your alter ego "Sand the Hairlocs stylist."

I really wish you'd stop trying to bullsh*t people over here. You're just so damn obvious, you know that?

Alilicious: I couldn't agree more. If stylists were willing to do damage control, by taking responsibility for their actions and refunding their client's money, then most of these threads probably would have never been started.

I'll second that!

Quite right. It's way too much to pay. There are benefits of getting your hair done by a professional, as opposed to DIY, especially if you don't want to invest all the time into researching and practicing the methods. But if you look around, you can get a perfectly good job done for $500 to $800. I really don't think anyone should pay over $1,000, especially since most people continue to spend a lot on the maintenance.

I know. Jenn, for what you paid, you could have gotten a nice set of fake boobs instead, and those don't need maintenance. I could only get one for what I paid, which wouldn't do me much good.

Anybody interested in buying a big bag of used hairlocs? I'll take $1000, hell....I'll take $10.
