Well, I live in Compton too and I have had it with these stores. I am soooo tired of being disrespected and treated like some low-life that's beneath them. I found a wonderful African-American owned beauty supply store in Compton and will not go anywhere else. The people on staff, including the owner, are very personable and customer service oriented. I think it's time we start patronizing our black-owned businesses regardless of price. These Asian American store owners feel that they can treat us any way they want because we have no choice but to take it (inexpensive items....we don't have a lot of money...makes sense). No!!! It's time for our people to rise up!
