About

Braiding is the core of the menu. Cornrow and twist options run from simple two feed-in and kids' cornrows for ages 3 to 10 to lemonade, single-layer and two-layer cornrows, flat twists, Senegalese twists, spring and passion twists, and double strand twists. Individual braids include knotless and box braid versions, half individuals with half cornrows, and youth sizes. Prices depend on size and length, and human hair individuals are quoted after the salon confirms size and length with the client.

Men's services cover trims, loc trims and retouches, color locs, cornrow designs, straight-back cornrows, and flat top or mohawk individuals. Thermal and weave work includes shampoo, press and curl, relaxers, cellophane, cuts, deep conditioning and steam treatments, weave take-downs, braid-up for weaves, ponytail and full head weaves, and braided tracks.

Clients are asked to arrive ten minutes early and are given a fifteen-minute grace period; late arrivals must reschedule and a fee applies. Cancellations must be made by text, and cancellations within 24 hours of the appointment carry a 50% fee. Payment is accepted by cash, Zelle and Cash App. Extra people, children and animals are not permitted at appointments, so anyone bringing them needs to reschedule.

Puts scalp and hair health ahead of the style, and gets to know each client to tailor services to their hair and goals.
