High Maintenance

"Consistently I can find something here. They sell loads of items such as hair products, human & synthetic hair, cosmetic jewelry, t-shirts, leggings, shoes, socks, cosmetic products just to name a few. While I find this store not as vast as others, I am able to find items that other beauty supply stores don't carry; hence my frequency.The prices are right & the owner of the store is friendly & super helpful with your selections. My only gripe is that sometimes while assisting you they will speak to one another in their native tongue. I find that to be rude in this particular situation. Honestly, I can really care less what they're saying, but it seems dubious when they speak to you in English and one another, although it's evident that they understand English, in their native language. Other than that, I've no concerns. The prices are fair. Hard to find items. And friendly staff make me a frequent flyer here."

"DO NOT COME HERE! GIVE YOUR MONEY TO SOMEONE WHO VALUES YOU!!If I could give 0 stars I would!!! I came into this place and a lady came in as well to ask questions about the hair she was buying....I guess the worker felt she was asking too many questions and told the customer "Okay you have to hurry up because I have customers"...I was so taken aback!The lady (customer) then responded, "Ma'am I am a customer and a business owner and that's no way to take me like that." Then the worker look at me with a smile and asked "You need anything sweetie?" I told her that wasn't nice and cool to do a customer like that." She told me that if i knew what I was talking about then I wouldn't have said anything and not to get into the conversation!" Wow!!!!Sooooo I walked out without purchasing!The lady was so rude not once, not twice, but three times!!!!"

Bourbon French Parfums

★★★★☆ 4.3 (63) • $$

"I was walking by and the exquisite scents literally pulled me in. They make all their own perfumes. I love jasmine and they have it. The store is adorable. Lots of scents and smells abs wonderful things for your nose. I love the jasmine. Jasmine (the scent) means spiritual ascension and purity. They also gave me some lavender samples and I look fitted to trying them."

H Beauty Depot

★★★★★ 4.7 (3) • $

"Beauty supply stores can often have a bad rep but H Beauty is the truth! No gimmick! The owner and his wife have always been pleasant but today was exceptional! I only get my braiding hair from this place. So I went in right when they opened to get my hair and other necessities. They have a nice inventory through the store. It's easy to shop, it's clean inside and it doesn't look hoarded. While I was shopping it started raining really hard. After paying for items, the owner grabbed your bags and his umbrella to walk me out! I was so shocked, he walked me to my car. As I was about to pull off, he ran back because I had dropped my change! It truly costs nothing to be a Good Samaritan."

Selfé Wellness

"Wooooo!!!! I believe in supporting SMALL BUSINESSES especially on small business Saturday. What better way to pay it forward, give back to the community and support a local business than to go shopping on Small Business Saturday. I stopped into this establishment as recommended by a couple friends and I definitely was pleased. All of the products are either handmade or sourced from other small business owners. I love, love, love, love this!!!! This really makes me happy inside. To go into a small business and see her also helping the community with their products... It's just a circle of paying it forward. She has an array of products; products for your hair to personal hygiene products to organic teas to jewelry and even pet products, Fido can get his 'smell good' on as well. On this day, I couldn't help but touch everything in the shop, well maybe not everything, but 80% of the items NOW have my fingerprints on them, lol. And need I say, that I walked out with a bunch of great finds. I love that she takes the time to educate you about each and every product should you ask. And all of it makes sense, Yoni oils, sprays for men's "downstairs region", body butters, which are better than lotion because they are not water-based... See how I did that. I plan to go back and make more purchases and not just on small business Saturday, but on a regular basis. The products that she has are wholesome, the ingredients are very fragrant and invoking. I love that the packaging is very clean. I love the brown dark, amber colored containers with the white labels. It gives you the feel on a high-end day spa... ohhh maybe she'll add that, where's the comment box... lol. #SmallBusinessSaturday #SelfeWellness #ILoveItHere #DoesABodyGood #CreamsAndThings #SupportLocalBusinesses #SmallBusinessesAreTheBackboneOfOurEconomy"

Hair Kingdom Beauty

★★★★☆ 4 (3)

"Kingdom is an accurate word to describe how massive this beauty supply is. What they lack in the usual neighborhood charm of the smaller beauty supply stores that we all know and love, they make up for by having just about any product you could possibly need. Edge control? Got it. Lashes? Got it. Shampoo? Got it? Apparel? Got that too. I haven't explored their hair options for braiding, extensions, or wigs, but the walls are FILLED so I'm sure you can find what you're looking for here. I love the large selection of brands and product lines for hair care. Nine times out of ten, I'm able to find exactly what I need and something new to try along the way. Honestly, the options can be a little overwhelming if you aren't going in with an idea of what you're looking for--but if you're experienced in this hair store/beauty supply game then you know what's up. The store is well organized and easy to navigate. If I'm not mistaken, they also have a rewards program for those who frequent. Indeed a one stop shop."

"For the longest time I have struggled with a dry itchy scalp! I got to the point I was so frustrated that I just wanted to cut all of my hair off and give up!

Tower Beauty Supply 2

★★★★☆ 3.7 (6) • $$

"I was today years old when I discovered the glory that is Tower Beauty.I was on the hunt for some gold stockings to wear with my Mardi Gras outfit (it's never too early to start planning). Normally I would just hop onto Amazon and be done with it, but I'm no longer online shopping, because I want to keep local businesses alive- a suggestion on Facebook brought me here. For some reason, I always assumed this was just a hair care store, but I was so wrong. Y'ALL, if you're in the market for inexpensive makeup, leggings, stockings, jewelry or undergarments, this is the place!I found the gold stockings that I was looking for and they were on sale for $2! Boom! Sure, they aren't the highest quality, but so what? They're enough to last me at least one day and that's good enough for me. They also have a wide assortment of fishnets that are good for costumes as well. I didn't buy any makeup, but they have really affordable name brands like Nyx and a big selection of perfumes and body sprays too. This place is a treasure trove of cheap supplies and I will definitely be back."

CL2 Hair Studio

★★★★★ 4.6 (19) • $$

"Moved to town recently which is always the hard part of a new place - finding someone you trust with your curls. Callie asked me a ton of questions to understand how my hair works, what I wanted, and confirmed how short it was going to be (based on what I asked for and made sure I was 100% comfortable with the shortness. Super happy with how it turned out and ready for the hot weather this summer."

Oprah Beauty Supply

"Ayman Assisted me and provided great customer service. This store has an extensive collection of hair care products (potions, lotions, sprays), styling tools (flat irons, curling irons), wigs, weaves, hair flair, shoes, jewelry, and even shoes. The entire staff is helpful and kind.Shukran jazeelin!"

Queens Beauty Supply

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (4)

"I work as an accountant next door to this store. On my most recent visit, I was chased out of the store and accused of stealing foundation. I'm appalled especially considering how much money I've spent there over the 4 years I've worked in this neighborhood. In fact, I pass the owner multiple times a week on my way to the gym. No more! I can't believe the racism and poor customer service of this place. Especially in defense of cheap, probably toxic makeup. Avoid giving this business your money if you can."

Queendom Aesthetics

"Came here for a friend to get a few beauty items. Beautifully decorated, it smells amazing! Fragrance of camomile and lavender fills the air. The owner and staff were very knowledgeable on products and services. Wax, facial and soap making classes also available."

Beauty Plus

★★★★☆ 3.8 (6) • $

"This place is great. Competitive pricing, lots of products and the most helpful staff I have ever encountered ina beauty supply store setting. Not to mention BP carries trendy hair accessories, clothing, jewelry, butt lifters, corsets, makeup, and shoes! This place has every frickin' thing.Whenever I am in need of hair products, blinged out Saints like Fleur De Lis apparel, reasonably priced formal accessories or unique evening clutches, this is my go to store in the metropolitan area. My most recent visit was for a pair of long formal gloves (black) which were a last minute addition to my carnival ensemble. The price was $7.99, which is better than Amazon pricing and does not involve shipping costs."

Armstrong McCall

★★★☆☆ 2.5 (2)

"This is a pro-only store for cosmetology professionals. The staff is friendly and helpful. They went to great lengths for me the other day to see if they could order a product for me. They were out of some things, which is the only reason I didn't give them a 5-star rating, and some things they were out of on the floor, they had in the back. But they were more than happy to help when I asked. This is my default place for supplies for my business. They carry a good number of product lines and are able to advise on the products themselves. They also have a rewards program, so you earn points for all your purchases."

Earth Potions

★★★★☆ 4.1 (10) • $$

"We soooo needed a bath bomb store in Metairie! Every time I've been to this store I've been greeted warmly and help is always easy to find. It's a small place, but is well organized and doesn't feel cramped. Also, everything is all natural and with my sensitive skin, that's a huge plus. The prices are very competitive for a spa type place and they run specials all the time! Today I was able to pick up 4 large bath bombs for $20, and since my daughter needed a birthday gift for a friend, this was a great option. And the scents are amazing!!! Today they had a mint scented Mardi Gras bomb with a baby inside! We didn't buy it as it was a pricier item and wasn't included in the sale bombs, but what a great idea. The People's Choice bombs today smelled amazing and were included in the sale. Score.They make and sell, bath bombs, candles, soaps, lotions, scrubs, lip balm and lots of other luxurious goodies. Today the lady working the register explained to me that this store was born out of a mom's desire to make sure her daughter used only natural products, as she had been very sick as a child. Bravo to that mom. The fact that they can offer natural products at these prices will keep me coming back."

All Plus Beauty World

★★★★☆ 3.8 (5) • $$

"Absolutely the best beauty supply store I have ever been to. I've been shopping this store since their previous location at the other end of the strip mall where they are currently located; at least 10 years. The owner and staff are endlessly helpful and polite. When they don't have what you're looking for, which is rare, they are very interested in knowing what the product is so that they may order it.I look forward to many more years of shopping with them."

Beauty and Beyond

"This store has a variety of all things hair and more. What I like about the store is that it is fully stocked. Outside of hair bundles, wigs, and hair products, they also sell clothing. Cool place that will meet a lot of your beauty needs."

"This beauty supply store has everything you'll ever need!!! One associate is great and has been working there for years but the others need more customer service experience .... Overall great"

Beauty Express

★★★★☆ 3.5 (4) • $

"I went to Beauty Express in Central City to get some hair products and to find out where I should go to get my hair done. The store is like many hair stores, but what makes it stand out is the large array of products it has, for ethnic hair. Beauty express has everything you could imagine would ever be in an ethnic hair store, from relaxers, to edge control, to kanekelon hair extensions, to Malasian remy! One issue I have though is the accessibility of the various hair products, as they're all located on the periphery along the wall, behind the counter, and you have to ask for assistance to get anything down to take a closer look. The place is cluttered, but that's to be expected, since how else are you going to display and feature the wide array of black hair moisturizers? If you know what you're looking for prior to coming in, you're all set, if you don't, you might get a bit lost in the madness. Overall, Beauty Express has everything I think I could ever need from a hair store for my hair, and the staff are friendly and willing to help!"

Sephora inside JCPenney

★★☆☆☆ 2.3 (8) • $$

"Okay, so I don't even know if you can really consider this a Sephora. This is like the MAC store at Dillard's- it's a much smaller version, and while you will be able to find a few things you like, you need to go elsewhere to get the full experience.I was here looking for some foundation- it seems that I always have to switch up my foundations because my skin gets irritated. The girl working here was helpful, but she wasn't successful in finding a foundation that matched my skin tone to my satisfaction.They offer other makeup things here, but if you are looking for a big selection, you'll be better off going to the big store at Lakeside."

Sally Beauty Supply

★★★☆☆ 3 (5) • $

"This is my favorite beauty supply store and I have been going here for years. They sell the best of the best at low prices.I was able to find my now "signature" red nail polish here, "Ruby Pumps" by China Glaze. They also carry an excellent array of liquid eyeliners in various colors including black and even dark blue.This is also the only place that I will buy bobby pins. I have really thick hair, so the cheapo "Goody" brand can't stay in place. They have heavy duty pins that stay put in my hair all day and night.Their selection of hair care products is out of this world and it is where I discovered what I call my "magic wand", my Helen of Troy hot air brush, that gives my hair a pretty wave, without having to roll it.Join the Sally Club for discounts and specials!"
