Hi! Sign in to let us know how Hair Champs Salon was?
Nadine P. Oct 03 .
I don't typically write negative reviews about anyone, but this case Omar merits one. i can sum it up in one word...BUTCHERED! My hair was midway down my back.. all i wanted was some shorter more textured layers. Seems pretty simple for most pros . What i got was a mushroom cap. Its as if he gave me two different haircuts, one in back and one in front, The problem is on the crown, i suppose he calls it texturing, however there's a huge chunk of hair cut right out of the crown, not even in a place you can hide. So basically i have 2 layers, almost like a bowl cut on top, long on the bottom with a big piece missing in the crown. The biggest problem for me is he had to know this during my blowout, as I sure did the next day when i went to blow it our myself. As he was blowing he said to me "oh it falls like a natural bump in the back". Well i did not ask for a bump, hence he knew he screwed up and said nothing, just tried to cover it up. Then just took my money. I know that people make mistakes, but when i called and went in for him to address it he kept saying , "oh i know what WE did" WE? really? no apology, just kept saying it does not look bad. But it is bad! Really bad, probably the WORST cut have EVER had! I also had to add ...someone who reviewed him stated "I would strongly recommend Omar to anyone that is looking for a NY quality stylist in the Raleigh area!", Well i am from NY and there is NOTHING NY quality about the way he does hair. Where were you getting your hair done ,,,on the A train?, even then it would probably still be better than what i got!
Adam is absolutely amazing! I have gone to him twice and he has done exactly what I asked for. He even did bangs for me for the first time. They came out awesome. MUST VISIT.
WHERE TO BEGIN...I WENT IN THE BEGINNING OF JANUARY. I went becuz my neighbor had her virgin hair bleached by him. it took him 6 hours but it looked wonderful and the price was cheap. so, i make an appointment.
Took a chance and got burned...literally!!

Worst haircut I have ever had. Nothing more to say. Don't go.
by c25 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
He cut all my hair off, colored it red ( I wanted it blond) and wouldn't repair it. I didn't have any bangs. My friends couldn't believe what a hack job he did. Maybe he didn't like me. I would have gladly left if that was the case. It took forever for it to grow. When I went to another salon that couldn't beieve what a rotton job he did. Don't go.
by EllenCustomer at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I thought I was dealing with professionals, I should have walked out the minute that man gave me attitude. Not only was he rude, but he chopped off all my hair when I only wanted a trim. I am now stuck with a bad haircut until I can get a new style when it grows back out!
I will be very careful next time I want to try a new salon!
Cons: Not prefessional, nor talented.
by CherylO at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I have lived here for almost 4 years and have not been able to find a stylist who is reasonably priced that does outstanding work until I came to Hair Champs and met Adam.
He is simply amazing. He listened to me and we actually spent about 20 minutes discussing my lifestyle and what I was all about.
He said he knew just what to do and to trust him. I gave it a whirl and WOW the result what just what I wanted both in color and style.
I can't wait to get back in to see Adam.
I finally found a place that I will continue to visit!!!

had! If you aren't sure exactly what you should do with your hair, you just need to trust him. He is that talented! Tell him Jamie sent you! He will hook you up!
Go Once & You'll be Hooked!

I prefer to do my hair in this salon for several reasons. First, it's easy to make an appointment, no long waiting period as in other salons with comparable services. Second, Larissa, the owner and stylist, is extremely pleasant and professional. My hair is thin and flat, but with the haircut from Larissa, styling is easy, beautiful shape and added volume. You can trust her taste and skills, just relax in the chair, and she will choose the style that flatters your face and personality. And third, the place is clean and cheerful. And all this for a very reasonable price. What else to look for? I and my both daughters love this salon. Thank you , Larissa!

Walid did a great job with my hair. Medium-length haircut - very stylish (I didn't give him specific instructions, so he was creative) and suits my face really well. He also corrected my hair color: I had a terrible mix of highlights, colors etc. - all with about 2inches routes (disaster, yes). He did some highlights and colored the rest, was very meticulous, worked on my hair forever, carefully selecting each strand... Overall, I was VERY pleased. Price was very reasonable too.
by hannah801 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
From the first time I met Walid, I was really impressed. He is simply the best hairstylist I have ever had. I have gotten my haircut with Walid 4 times now since serendipitiously stumbling upon him. And each time I come to Hair Champs to get my haircut, I always leave feeling completely satisfied and pleased with what an absolutely amazingly job Walid does on my hair. I have never received so many compliments before on my haircut as I do when I get it cut with Walid. Walid always takes his time...sometimes spending more than an hour and a half on my hair...the longest I have ever had any stylist spent on my hair. He is very meticulous and such a perfectionist always making sure that every strand falls in the right place. Not only is Walid very talented and creative, he is also a caring and thoughtful individual constantly making sure that you are doing alright. I would highly recommend Walid to everyone.
by jatnc82 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
Only place in Raleigh that can cut my hair with clippers. Great if your ex-military! Walid is awesome, he is the consummate professional. The conversation amongst the staff is always interesting and funny. If you go here, take the time to get to know the staff, it definitely make each visit that much better. The price is also the best in town for the quality you get. Their goal is quality, not quantity, you don't pay for frivolous things that other places charge you. You get a cut and a shampoo for $15.00. You might have to wait a bit longer, however when its your turn in the chair, you know that they will take all the time necessary to do the job correctly and to your likening!!!!! If you do not believe me just go get your hair cut here and see for yourself.
Best Price, Great Atmoshpere, Amazing Staff - Walid is Great!!!

Being new to the area and not knowing too many places, I had gotten a couple of really bad hack-jobs. I stumbled across this place by accident one day (after a movie at the Raleigh Grande) and what an awesome experience! I didnt have an appointment so I waited about 20 minutes (not bad at all). Larissa immediately made me feel at ease. When she was done with my haircut after about 25 minutes it was perfect!! I'm very finicky about my hair and wa a bit nervous at first, but she did such a great job that I talked my wife into going there. She absolutely loved her haircut/style by Walid. Infact now, I even have my little 5 year old going there as well, and he won't go anywhere else!
Hair Champs is definitely tops in my books. I highly recommend it for Women, Men AND Children.
One of the Best Haircuts... ever!
by nyinnc1 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I went to hair champs about a week ago and just wanted to write about my great experience! I wanted to get a cut and highlights. They both turned out amazing! I was amazed at how much time Walid spent with me. He is a perfectionist and took his time. For having meduim length hair, he spent almost 3 hours on me. I know other places that charge more and just want you out of there so they can wait on someone new. I'm very impressed and def. will be back!
by sshaefer31 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
Great w/ color. I royally screwed up my hair by dying it myself, and they did an excellent job repairing the damage. A little pricey - but worth it!
by jennjohnson at Citysearch Nov 10 .
The service was excellent and I love my new cut and style!! I was greeted and served promptly and the prices are fantastic. I am so happy to have found a new place so close to home!
by iteachk75 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
This was my 3rd visit to Hair Champs and I've never been happier! Stephanie helped my choose a new, easier, and quicker style that was just as hip! My highlights are absolutely perfect and the cut is really cute and so easy.
by dandlkagan at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I am not the kind of person that writes reviews but I can't sit back and read another bogus attack against this salon. Me and my wife are loyal clients and have been since discovering this little gem on City Search two years ago. Most salons in Raleigh are ridiculously over priced. They try to jam products down your throat and treat you like you are on a production line. Hair Champs is the only salon in this town that gives you the best of BOTH worlds, great service and a great price. I have watched this business grow from scratch. Larissa has a genuine concern and appreciation for her customers and she has one of the highest work ethics I have ever seen in a business owner. Keep up the good work Hair Champs! We love you guys and we'll never go anywhere else.
How can anyone not like this salon?
by sunsurfergl at Citysearch Nov 10 .
My hair is thick and it grows very fast. I refuse to pay over 35 dollars for a haircut. I have been to just about every salon in Raleigh more than once and this place beats them all. They charge me 32 and 18 for my hubby. They gave me exactly what I wanted because I don't get out of the chair until I am happy. My husband goes the Elvira or Larissa and I go to Stephanie. One word of advice, you should make an appointment, or you will probably have to wait. My husband walked in today and had to waited over an hour for a haircut. Other than that, I say go for it, GOOD SALON at a good price.

I dont usually take the time to write reviews but the lack of quality service at this salon prompted me to do so.
I wanted a new, chic looking hairstyle. Unfortunately, I decided to try Hair Champs solely based on Citysearch reviews.
First of all, the stylist acted very unprofessionally by complaining about one of her clients that had just left the salon.
The haircut I ended up with looked nothing like the pictures that I showed the stylist. The method in which she cut and styled my hair displayed an obvious lack talent and up-to-date training. My hair looked frizzy, puffy and just plain unattractive after she styled it.
I do not recommend Hair Champs to anyone looking for a trendy new look. It may be an o.k. place for a guy to get a trim but not for a girl that needs an attractive hairstyle.
by tomk421 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I was recently in Raleigh, N.C. and stopped at Hair Champs for a quick cut. After a few minutes I decided to stay a while. The staff included a friendly group of guys and gals that gave me top notch treatment. I was lucky enough to be serviced by the owner, Larissa, and opted for a wash and stylish cut and even came out with a cup of coffee. What a treat for a guy who is used to being rushed in and out of most places. The experience was truly wonderful.
by emmiekins at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I would definitely recommend checking out Hair Champs. The service is great as is the talent of the stylists on staff. Elli is fantastic!
My only caveat is to be 100% certain of the style you are asking for. Other than that, press on for a great cut!
by loreren at Citysearch Nov 10 .
The stylists at Hair Champs are amazing - especially Tonya, who not only gives me a consistantly natural looking highlights (blonde highlights on a dark brunette!) but also gives an amazing cut.
I would pay twice as much to look half as good! If you want the most attractive style perfect for you, then you'd be crazy to trust any other salon.
by andreaw1972 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I took a chance on this place. Had my hair colored and got some red high lights on top. The salon was recomended by a freind. Wow am I happy! You couldn't ask for better quality. I saw that someone (below) didn't like their highlights, but I can say that I got GREART service. Guess you can't please everyone. I would try this place.
by atorgofan at Citysearch Nov 10 .
This place is great! I went in for a haircut only, despite having recently dyed my own hair from brown to blond, ending up with...well, kind of something interesting. Adam suggested doing an all over color to correct the mess I'd made, and I thought what the heck. It turned out a very nice dark blond, pretty close to my natural color and a billion times better than the interesting gradients of blond I'd had! Not to mention I loved the haircut - I have a short bob with bangs and he trimmed it up perfectly. He added some subtle stacking that I would not have expected but looks great. They know their stuff about color and cuts for sure! Also a fun place to get your hair cut - everyone is VERY entertaining to say the least. I also got a great deal due to their color service sale - run, don't walk down there if you need color done! Also they're very willing to spend a lot of time with you to get things done right.
by wlarring at Citysearch Nov 10 .
The atmosphere and the service at Hair Champs were great for a haircut. I am a guy and therefore don't need thermalionic-colordye straightening or whatever it is but the staff at Hair Champs, especially Larisa, the owner, give great men's haircuts. The staff works with you on scheduling and the price is very reasonable.
by devi22 at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I am thrilled with my hair, and the service is unbeatable. I came in and didn't have to wait at all, they were actually ready for me- as we all know this is unlike most salons! My hair stylist was very professional, friendly and did exactly what I asked her to do on my hair. I don't usually write reviews over places I have recieved service at, but this place was so commendable that I thought it deserved some great feedback. I will be a returning customer.
by agule at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I happened to be a walk-in and they immediately took me, Stephanie did a wonderful job with the highlights they are beautiful and actually healthy looking! She taught me how to take care of my hair & now I have a perfect hair cut to frame my face. It was a wonderful experience and I can now style my hair easily. Also the service price was great and these products really work! Can't wait for my next visit!
Very Pleased & I look Gorgeous!
by soniapeters at Citysearch Nov 10 .
I didn't even get seen for 45 minutes, and when I did, I asked for an overall chocolately brown color with auburn highlights, and when I showed the woman the picture of the hair I wanted, she said, "Okay, pick out the colors." WHAT? Who's the professional?
So, I chose an auburn red for my highlights, and she ruined my hair with adding FIERY RED-ORANGE highlights. Then, she tried to fix the disaster by putting toner in my hair, which after 45 minutes did NOTHING. Then she put brown all over my hair and added some copper highlights, and now my hair looks like a purple/black color with red and yellow highlights on top.
To top it off, they charged me $144 for this eyesore. They wasted 6 hours of my time; don't let them waste yours!
They took me for a ride.

What is Septicemia (Foals) ?
Many times foals born in a dirty birthing stall or out in the pasture are more susceptible to developing septicemia. Usually, foals will become ill within three to four days of birth. In some cases, the foal is infected with septicemia in-utero. If this occurs the foal will be born in a weakened state or even comatose.
It is important that foals are born within clean conditions. Keeping the birthing stall disinfected and providing clean bedding every day will reduce the risk of septicemia in foals. After every birth, the birthing stall must be scrubbed, preferably with a bleach solution to kill any bacteria that may be present.
Septicemia in foals can be fatal if not treated aggressively and quickly. It is a disease that involves bacteria within the bloodstream. The bacteria then infiltrate the tissues of the foal. The bacterial infection will spread through the tissues and affect bones, joints, organs and the central nervous system.
Septicemia is a bacterial infection that is caused when bacteria enters the body and then spreads through the bloodstream. Generally, foals that are three to four days old are the most susceptible to septicemia. Those born in dirty conditions are at a higher risk. Septicemia can be fatal if not treated aggressively immediately.
Adult horses can also develop septicemia, but instead of the bacteria entering through an umbilical cord, it occurs when the intestinal barrier has been disturbed. Generally, this is from inflammatory bowel disease or a GI obstruction.
There is no diagnostic tool available to detect sepsis early. Veterinarians have developed a system that helps identify sepsis at a more treatable stage. Your veterinarian will look at the foal’s medical history, observation of the living conditions and laboratory testing to determine if septicemia is present.
A complete blood count and urinalysis will show the presence of bacteria within the foal. Arterial blood gas analysis will also help in diagnosing septicemia. A negative blood culture does not definitively rule out septicemia.
Your veterinarian will also look to see what organs, if any, have been affected by the infection. Once a full assessment has been completed and the definitive diagnosis of septicemia has been made, a treatment plan will be set for your foal.
Your veterinarian will implement an aggressive treatment plan that will include antibiotics to help reduce the spread of septicemia through the bloodstream.
Antimicrobial medications may also be used along with frequent monitoring, fluid therapy, nutritional support, and cardiovascular support. This generally requires that the foal, or horse of any age, be hospitalized during treatment.
Anti-endotoxin therapy may be recommended if there are GI disturbances or other illnesses within the abdominal cavity. Supportive care along with round the clock checks will be required for your foal. Most medications required will be administered through an IV.
Your veterinarian will discuss all of your treatment options for your foal and help you make the best choice. Immediate, aggressive treatments are required for a foal diagnosed with septicemia. Be sure to administer all medications as prescribed to ensure their maximum effect. If you are unsure of dosing instructions or concerned about any side effects, contact your veterinarian for assistance.
Septicemia in foals is fatal if not treated quickly and aggressively. Even then, some foals still do not make it. Speak with your veterinarian about your foal’s prognosis and recovery time. By hospitalizing your foal, recovery time may be increased as opposed to keeping your foal housed in your stable with its mother.
Prevention is the best way to avoid septicemia in foals. This means maintaining good hygiene, removing any build up of mud or feces on your mare before and after giving birth. Keeping the new foal clean and out of muddy conditions is also important.
Place the expectant mother in the clean, disinfected birthing stall several weeks prior to delivery. This allows her make antibodies that will fight against any pathogens that are commonly found in a foaling environment. Clean the foaling stall daily, disinfect the walls and flooring prior to adding clean bedding.
Once the foal is born, wash mother and foal with warm water to remove any birthing fluids and bacteria. Ask your veterinarian about a solution that can be put on the foal’s umbilical cord to help keep bacteria at bay.

A mild degree of oligohydramnios causes no direct detrimental consequences to the fetus. However, severe oligohydramnios does have severe consequences for the fetus, irrespective of cause. In the uterus, the swallowing of water by the fetus promotes the normal development of the fetal lungs, and this is disrupted when there is a marked lack of amniotic fluid (severe oligohydramnios). In other words, chronic severe oligohydramnios may alone be sufficient to cause miscarriage, even when the cause is not known, because of its severe effect on fetal development.
In the first trimester of pregnancy, the main source of amniotic fluid is the mother, and a small amount originates from the fetus. In the second and third trimesters, most of the fluid is formed from fetal urine, and a decrease in the normal amount of amniotic fluid usually occurs as a result of a problem in the fetus's urinary tract.
Most cases are a result of early rupture of the membranes and breaking of the waters. Sometimes there is a continuous, low-level loss of fluid that the mother does not even feel. Even slight leakage of amniotic fluid can be demonstrated using a special gynecological test.
Defects in the urinary tract and/or kidneys that do not allow urination in normal quantities. These can be congenital defects in the development of the kidneys or obstruction of the urinary tract at different levels (in the urethra, ureters, etc.).
Placental insufficiency. In this case, signs of delayed fetal growth also appear.
There are reports in the literature of a high frequency of chromosome disorders in fetuses with oligohydramnios. In most cases of oligohydramnios arising from chromosome disorders, other defects will also be detected in the fetus. Therefore oligohydramnios alone, without other defects, is not necessarily an indication for amniocentesis, especially if the cause is known (e.g. leakage of amniotic fluid, etc.).
What should be done if oligohydramnios is diagnosed?
The mother should be asked whether there has been any leakage of amniotic fluid in the period preceding the diagnosis of oligohydramnios. Her excretions should be examined for the presence of amniotic fluid, etc.
A 3rd level ultrasound scan should be performed to look for defects, especially in the urinary tract. In cases of severe oligohydramnios, a good fetal scan cannot always be performed.
Doppler testing of the placental blood vessels should be carried out in order to check for placental insufficiency.
If there is no clear cause, such as leakage of amniotic fluid or placental insufficiency, then the parents should be offered genetic counseling in order to discuss the severity of the condition, its implications, the need for further investigations, and the advisability of performing amniocentesis. In cases where amniocentesis cannot be performed, cordocentesis or chorionic villus sampling through the abdomen can be carried out instead.
In cases of severe oligohydramnios, with or without defects in the urinary tract, the parents should be referred to a multidisciplinary clinic in a hospital for professional counseling by an expert in pediatric kidney diseases (nephrologist), a genetic counselor, an expert in ultrasound examinations and a neonatologist in order to collate all the data and discuss what further investigations and interventions, if any, should be undertaken.
This will depend on the severity of the oligohydramnios, and whether or not there are any associated defects, etc.

Daniel Akpeyi was the main attraction during the Super Eagles training session watched by Owngoalnigeria.com Maxwell Pius at the training pitch of the Godswill Akpabio Stadium.
The Eagles had a light session before splitting into two groups of 8 players each for a practice game, which Akpeyi excelled with save after save to frustrate the forwards he was up against.
Akpeyi was difficult to beat throughout the session, and his form is a confirmation of how well he has been performing for his Premier South Africa League side Chippa United.
The highlight of his performance was stopping a penalty from Leicester City Star Ahmed Musa, and the manner which he stopped shots during their shooting drills.
Although Ikechukwu Ezenwa didn’t do badly, Akpeyi was by far the most impressive, however he was up against some of the top strikers of the team so that means he was constantly under pressure as they mounted attacks after attack.
A decision on who will start between the duo is expected to be made in the coming days, but for now Akpeyi is in the lead after his performance this evening.

A solid rock fist up for "C.S.A: Confederate States of America"
“C.S.A: Confederate States of America” is a truly unique and rare motion picture. What the film lacks in budget, editing, and performances it more than makes up for with an utterly brilliant and awe-inspiring concept. “C.S.A” is confrontational and completely in your face, but in a way that is so bold and smart that any intelligent criticism about what the film may be missing should be overshadowed by its undeniable originality and relevance. With its recent nationwide theatrical release, “C.S.A” is the “little picture that could” not on the strength of the movie-making, but because it needs to be seen, both as great art and as exceptional satire.
“C.S.A” supposes what America’s history would have been had the Confederacy won the Civil War. The film pretends to be the presentation of a British television documentary about the history of the “Confederate States of America” from the time of the war to the present. The documentary is being broadcast on a “C.S.A.”-controlled television channel and is frequently interrupted by commercials for products and services that reflect an America where slavery is very much alive and well. Delving into the details of the film would unnecessarily alter the experience of watching the film, so that is all the summation that will be given here.
The movie itself has some rather noticeable flaws. It was obviously shot inexpensively and the editing and pace reflect an effort to make the most of what director Kevin Wilmott was able to piece together. He did a fabulous job with what he had to work with, and it is a shame he didn’t have more resources. One wonders what this film would look like if it had a budget that matched the gigantic scope of the ideas within, and begs the question: Would/could a major studio get behind a movie like this? Although Spike Lee’s name is now attached to the film as an executive producer, “C.S.A.” was made independently and without an adequate financing to truly do it justice.
Despite the heavy subject matter, “C.S.A.” has moments of great humor interspersed throughout the picture. It begins with a quote from George Bernard Shaw, “If you’re going to tell people the truth, you’d better make them laugh…” A statement which helps to temper the experience and information the viewer is about to witness. It serves valuably to remind you from the start that the movie wants to be laughed at as much as it wants you to feel the impact of its message.
Until now “C.S.A: Confederate States of America” has found audiences through limited screenings and film festivals. The nationwide release the film is getting right now may not last long. If your art theater is showing the film, it is worth the trip; if not, DVD will be the format where most people will discover this intriquing picture. This film belongs on college campuses, it belongs in theaters and it belongs in the American conscience, because long after the independent movie “C.S.A.” is over, the ideas it presents remain powerful and totally fascinating.
