About

Bonitas Extensions and Braids Salon is a hair salon on Bryant Avenue South in Minneapolis, run by Bonitas Extensions and Braids Salon Inc. The salon describes itself as a diverse upscale salon that specializes in many kinds of hair extension methods and works with all hair types for men and women. It says its goal is to be the top-rated salon in Minnesota and to offer quality services at fair prices.

The braiders and natural hair stylists keep up with current braid, textured weave and twist styles and have experience starting and maintaining a wide range of looks. Extensions are applied by braiding and sewing, placed behind the hairline and away from natural partings. Shell colors are matched to the client's hair during consultation. Clients can bring their own hair or buy it from the salon, which sells Temple Indian human hair in natural black priced by length.

Dreadlock work covers starting new locks, retwisting, interlocking, microlocks, comb coils, and Sisterlocks, which is a natural hair locking method done with a patented tool and grid pattern and without gels or waxes. Wig services include fitting and styling, cutting, coloring, lace front and custom full lace wigs, with a clean human hair wig either supplied by the client or ordered through the salon.

Every new appointment is subject to a $50 non-refundable service deposit. Relaxer services and wig services require a consultation before the appointment, and hair extension services require an on-site consultation and are generally not available same day. A free 15-minute service consultation is offered for clients who want to talk through options first. If a client is unhappy with a braided style the next day, the salon will take it down and rework it at no cost, provided the client returns to the salon. Certain styles can be reworked at no cost within 7 to 14 days. After that, a rework or new service is charged at 50 percent of the service fee, up to the full fee.

The Booksy listing shows a 4.5 average rating from 751 reviews, according to the salon's booking profile. The salon accepts cash and major credit cards but not checks, and it sells hair products through its online shop.

The salon applies extensions by braiding and sewing rather than glue or heat bonds, and it aims to protect natural hair while it grows out or recovers from chemical damage.

Kids' braiding takes place in a cozy, family-friendly setting.
