About

Braid Work is a salon in Plano focused on braided and locked hairstyles. Its service menu covers a broad range of protective styles, from box braids and knotless braids to cornrows, crochet braids, twists and Sisterlocks, along with add-ons such as a wash and dry and a waist-length extension. The salon is open Monday through Saturday, with later hours on Fridays and Saturdays and closed on Sundays.

The salon describes its approach as holistic, with attention on the finished look, the health of the hair and the client's comfort during the appointment. It calls itself a luxury experience where clients feel fully heard, and says it serves women who want high-quality service. It also says it has more than 15 years of experience and keeps up its education in the field.

Sisterlocks is a major part of the menu. The initial consultation costs $30, takes 45 minutes, and includes an assessment of hair type, an introduction to Sisterlocks, a look at the salon's exclusive Sisterlocks product line and 8 to 10 test locks. Hair should be shampooed, clean and free of product at least 24 hours before this visit. Establishment starts at $400 for the first 5 inches with $50 for each additional inch, requires hair at least 4 inches long, and takes about 480 minutes over two days. Retightening starts at $90 and takes about 240 minutes, including a wash and interlocking at the root; time beyond 3 hours is charged at $30 per hour, capped at $150, with no extra charge for appointments running past 5 hours.

Braiding services include box braids in small, medium and large sizes, knotless box braids, Boho knotless styles, Boho bob, Miracle Knots, Kinky Twist and Marley Twist. Many of the braided styles list hair as included, with length guidance such as midback for several sizes; Boho Bob is for hair 8 inches or shorter, so clients with longer hair are asked to get in touch first. A take-down service removes medium box or knotless braids up to 8 weeks old with a full wash; older braids are priced on request. A waist-length add-on extends box braids, knotless braids or Marley twists. Standard hair color for most braiding is natural black (1B), and other colors can be requested by DM or text after booking.

Booking requires a deposit: most braiding services ask for $25 from new clients, Small Box Braids asks for $50, and Sisterlocks Establishment asks for $75, which is non-refundable, non-transferable and applied to the total. Cancellations need at least 48 hours' notice; a cancellation made with less notice, or a no-show, may be charged 30% of the service fee.

The salon takes a holistic approach that weighs the finished look, the wellness of the hair and client comfort.
