About

Braid Nation, LLC works from a suite on Dupont Parkway in Smyrna, Delaware. The business describes itself as a relaxed, upscale boutique and says it specializes in hair extensions, braid styles and locs, including Sisterlocks.

The menu is broad: box braids in several sizes, knotless braids, lemonade braids, cornrows, twists, crochet installs, wig installs and updos, with children's versions of many styles. Many prices are starting points that change with length, size or the amount of hair added, so the final cost depends on the style a client chooses.

Sisterlocks follow a set sequence of three appointments: an initial consultation, a full install two to three weeks later, and a follow-up touch-up two to three weeks after the install. Other consultations are free and take about 15 minutes. The Sisterlocks consultation carries a $25 fee that is non-refundable and credited toward the full price.

The business says its approach is built on satisfying clients, and it states that once a service is paid for, the client is considered satisfied. Deposits are non-refundable and the business has a no-refund policy, so clients should review terms when booking. Gift cards are available.
