Black Beauty Braids

Black Beauty Braids works only in braiding, and its listing presents African hair braiding as its specialty. The studio is located in Silver Spring, Maryland, and it welcomes clients from Washington, D.C. as well as nearby communities. The business also appears online as Black Beauty Braiding Salon DC.

The menu is organized into four groups. Knotless and traditional box braids come in several sizes, with knotless styles offered in small, medium, and large. Cornrows and feed-in braids are offered for women, men, and kids, and stitch cornrows are done with precise parting and finished edges. Bohemian and goddess braids are finished with soft curls, while custom patterns cover tribal, stitch, and expressive designs. Twists and faux locs round out the menu.

Pricing depends on the particular style. Traditional box braids start at $160, twists and faux locs and custom patterns start at $180, and bohemian and goddess braids start at $200. The salon confirms final pricing based on size, length, density, added hair, and design complexity.

Booking is done through the website as a request. The salon then reaches out by text, phone, or email to confirm the appointment. Clients are asked to bring an inspiration photo and to note any hair-prep details, and to send a preferred date when booking. Before the visit, clients should check with the salon about the suite, entrance, parking, and prep requirements. The business lists its hours as open 24 hours Monday through Saturday and Sunday from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Braids are customized by size, length, finish, and design, with the final quote set by the salon after it reviews the style details.
