Just had my hair done yesterday and I am happy with my hair. The stylist took her time and gave me a great cut.

After hurting my knee, I was out of commision for 6 weeks. When I called MHN to tell them the news of my injury, they offered to visit me at my apartment and take care of my hair. I have only been a client for about a year and I did not expect to have this degree of care. My stylist and her assistant came to see me and within 90 minutes I looked like myself again. Just knowing that my hair looked good gave me such a boost after dealing with all the pain. Thank you for caring

Have been going for over 10 years

My hair started to thin when I was 28 years old. I have been a client of MHN for over 10 years and they have helped me feel better about my professional apperance. I am a doctor and I am very self conscious about the way I look. Having experienced hair weaving and having my hair bonded there is no comparison in the feel and comfort. The staff is very helpful and understanding. With my busy work load they have always helped me with booking appointments.

Bad experience. Very true!

I got similar experience as Evelyn. MHN is far away from professional place. Service rooms are dirty and extremely small, like a closet. I was also told that the glue is FDA approved and completely safe. Now, after 5 months of having the hair piece attached to my scalp by this glue I am going through intensive skin therapy visiting the dermatology office once a week and following some procedures at home as well. The doctors opinion is that I am lucky because it could be much worse. The glue used by MHN can cause significant skin damage, intoxication, accelerate hair loss and lead to complete boldness. Don’t expect the MHN personal to inform you about these side effects. They NEED you! So, think twice before you let MHN to glue your head if you really want to take this risk!

I had hair extensions added to make my hair look fuller. It was done 3 weeks before my engagement party. My cousin who normally critiques eveyone complimented me on my hair. She thought I had my hair blown out and styled differently for the party. She and everyone else did not have a clue that I had extensions added. I am very happy.

Couldnt believe it!

I have been nurse for 15 years. I noticed my hair changed after having my kids. My medical background allowed me to do research on solutions to my thinning. After having my first visit with MHN 2 years ago and learning about the process and how it worked I asked the doctors I worked with if they thought I should go ahead. They encouraged me to try it. I have been very happy with the work MHN did. I get compliments on my hair and have refered my cousin who also started thinning.

Feels good to have hair

I have tried many things for my thinning hair: rogaine, shampoos and seen a dermatologist. I finally accepted my hair loss and decided to add hair. I tried extensions before but it did not solve the problem with my loss on top. Plus it was embarrising to go to a regular salon and have everyone stare at my head. I like that MHN is private and they only help people with hair loss. I had my hair done in October and i feel better about my self.

MHN - MEANS GET BOLD FAST!

If you care about your health DO NOT try this service! It calls a Semi-permanent attachment and it's attached to your scalp with the glue. This glue is very toxic and will burn your skin and kill your own hair in less than a month. The scalp area under the attachment gets completely damaged. You will need to come back every 2 weeks to fix (add more glue!) the piece as it doesn't last longer than 1- 2 weeks. The service is unpleasant and people in MHN Studio are not friendly at all. I just went through 3 months experience with this place. I regret that I did not take this attachment away after first month! It was my biggest mistake ever. If you have questions e-mail me at barsik_cat@yahoo.com
