StyleSeatReviews of styleseat.com

This website is the worst. The stylists on it are scammers. The stylist I booked charged me a deposit, then rescheduled my appointment without asking me. I couldn't make the new appointment. When I went to the website to try and reschedule the new appointment, I couldn't even though it was more than 24 hrs before my appointment. Then, I couldn't even log into the website anymore. There was no way to communicate with anyone from customer service. Stay away from this website. They charge high fees; the stylists are the worse, and you will never get your money back if something goes wrong.

DO NOT GO TO QDoyja Styles at Extraordinary Hair Design! I had the absolute worst experience at this salon, and I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy! I booked an appointment with QDoyja two weeks in advance for feed-in braids, sent a picture of exactly what I wanted, and followed all instructions to book through her website. I even made sure to confirm because I had a vacation planned in two days. At NO POINT did she tell me she couldn't do the style—until I arrived at the salon! Instead of being upfront from the beginning, she waited until I got there to tell me she couldn’t do it and tried to pass me off to another stylist, Lucie, which was already a huge red flag. But since I needed my hair done, I gave Lucie a chance and showed her the same picture. What happened next was beyond frustrating. Lucie clearly had no idea what she was doing. Instead of braiding my hair into a ponytail with a swoop like the picture, she did one random, oversized braid from the side of my head up to the back—completely wrong. I tried to explain that this was NOT what I asked for, and instead of listening or fixing it, she decided to argue with me! The first part of the braid was tiny, and then she added half a bundle of hair into one giant braid at the back—completely unbalanced and ridiculous-looking. When I told her I wasn’t paying for a style I didn’t ask for, I walked out of the salon with ONE braid in my head. QDoyja was nice enough to apologize and refund my deposit—but she still took $5 from it. And honestly, the whole situation was shady from the start. If she had just been honest from the beginning, I could have booked with someone else instead of being left scrambling right before my trip. To make matters worse, this salon is filthy. Extraordinary Hair Design is NOT well-kept—it looks like it hasn’t been properly cleaned or sanitized in ages. If they can’t even keep their salon clean, imagine how they handle your hair! Lucie is hands down the worst braider I’ve ever encountered. She doesn’t listen, has no clue how to execute a basic braid style, and has the audacity to argue with clients instead of fixing her mistakes. Save yourself the time, money, and frustration—DO NOT GO HERE! If I could give negative stars, I would. Avoid 8012 S Tacoma Way at all costs!

Been a hairstylist on styleseat since 2014. Last 5 years has been horrible, but i am trapped because I've built up my reviews and would have to start over if I left Recently I was changed from basic to premium without wanting that...contacted customer service and was told it's irreversible. Also, for about 3 months they were intentionally blocking my availability to where clients weren't able to book, which caused me about 7k in bookings; I contacted customer service AGAIN and the rep was very inexpensive and incompetent, she pretending not to know what I was talking about even when I emailed screenshots as proof....I'm just so sad that I'm being treated like this after being with them for over 10 years. I have email proof from this horrible situation

Styleseat is the worst application ever, they dedicated $35 in my account for years and I had never any client from them. If you want to waste your money signs in. It's not recommendable

STAY AWAY!! DO NOT USE THIS PLATFORM! They only want to take your money, and force you to pay them more. People do use this platform and you will get bookings , but you end up overcharging people and still making less than what you originally charged them for. 0/10

Today I am writing this in tears that every stylist, newbie or rookie should work on building their website and leave all these leaches sites alone . For months now i joined StyleSeat to build my clientele base just because I moved from one state to another . But since then its been trauma for me ,from getting chargebacks for works I break my back for ,in hours with some ghetto broke ass clients,to getting chargebacks on deposits with appointments that clients never showed up for . While I did my part to be available in my salon . It’s been a lot ,sometimes I wake up finding some unnecessary amount deduction by StyleSeat and at the end of the day they make up some stupidest reason for you it’s draining .i joined StyleSeat so i can make money but the narration is like I’m just slaving away my life for them at this point . They charge more than 36% on your appointments,they charge you for processing fee to deposit money in your account and on top of it they still charge you for monthly fees . This is really depressing at this point ,I don’t even want clients again cause it’s like im just working for them and to top it all off,they’re weak as f’uck. Tell me how can I work on a clients even after pictures and video evidence with good review from clients then you turn around to tell me they disputed the transaction with their bank and there’s nothing you can do . It’s a shitshow and a shithole at this point . They can have it all ,I’m done and tired of this app .And this morning I woke up to see them deduct $51 from my account ,they said a client who didn’t show up for appointments asked for $35 deposit refund and why did you deduct 51 they said they now charge extra $20 fee for chargebacks . If this ain’t frustrating please tell me I’m crazy . I went to work hoping to bring money home ,stress ,gas ,then the clients didn’t show up but then the little compensation I thought I had was stripped off me and to make matter worse I still have to pay for the charges . So tell me what the f”uck is going on .I woke up trying to cancel all my appointments today cause I’m tired and f’ed up .F*uck StyleSeat . And if I can give them zero rating I’ll do that

I'm shocked they're still in business. I worked for a salon owner who had beta tested for them and it's all we'd used for 9 years. I finally left that salon and a large portion was due to how embarrassing, and financially disadvantageous styleseat is. It's too much to explain so I'll summarize it as there's always a new issue. It's always broken in a different way. Something else significant breaks right before or after another issue is fixed. They add fees for clients while adding fees for stylists while offering garbage in return. It's just BAD. I've been doing hair a long time and used a lot of systems and this is by far the worst company. They don't even offer any useful or timely support. Asking clients for a dollar every booking is GHETTO.

Stylist Belle Deeluxe of McKenney TX charged 30.00 for color that completely washed out a week later and turned my purple tips green. She initially agreed to fix but then pivoted and asked me to bring the color for the redo which I refused.
