About

Braidington African salon is a hair salon on West Englewood Avenue in Englewood, New Jersey. The salon describes itself as passionate about creating African hairstyles, and its menu centers on braids, with faux locs and twists alongside.

Clients can book online through the salon's booking page. A deposit may be required to hold an appointment, and flexible payment is available at booking, with deposits starting at $25 for cornrows and $63 for micro braids. The salon is open from 8:00 to 20:00 every day.

Braid styles vary in time and in how they are built. Cornrows and feed-in braids take about three hours and can be adapted to shorter hair. Knotless braids take about five hours and start with a flat base at each braid to reduce tension. Fulani braids are often finished with beads, and boho braids weave added lengths into natural hair. Micro braids are the longest service on the menu, at about seven hours.

The salon describes its care as expert and its atmosphere as warm and inviting. Locs and twists are also offered: faux locs use synthetic hair wrapped around natural strands, and spring twists use synthetic extensions. Passion and Senegalese twists suit shoulder-length hair or longer.

After a braided style, the salon's aftercare guidance recommends a light, non-greasy scalp oil every few days for several of its styles.
