Braids by Stacy is a braiding business in District Heights, Maryland, run by owner and braider Stacy. The business describes itself as a destination for stylish braids that are healthy and low-maintenance, along with loc services and protective styling. The aim is one-on-one attention in a calm, private setting.
Braiding covers kids and youth styles for ages 12 and under, men's braids, cornrows, twists, goddess and boho styles, individual braids in small, medium or large sizes, and updos and special styles. Loc work includes starter locs, loc maintenance, loc styling and faux loc installation; hair extensions are not included in loc services unless stated. Weave and wig services cover sew-ins with a leave-out or closure, wig braid-downs and wig installs. Prices are starting rates, and the final price is confirmed at booking or consultation based on hair length, thickness, braid size and style complexity.
The business states that braids typically last four to six weeks with proper care. Maintenance and care services, from light refreshes and edge refinement to takedowns and a scalp cleansing consultation, are available for keeping a style in good shape between full appointments.
Booking requires a non-refundable $50 deposit, collected by Square invoice, and the remaining balance is due when the service is complete. Cancellations or rescheduling need at least 24 hours' notice, and the deposit may move to one rescheduled appointment. Arriving more than 15 minutes late may mean rescheduling and losing the deposit; no-shows without notice forfeit it, and later bookings may need full payment in advance. All services are final, but concerns about a style should be raised within 14 days, and minor adjustments may be offered at the stylist's discretion. Cash, major credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Cash App Pay are accepted.
Availability is flexible, with extended hours. The address is shared after an appointment is confirmed. Contact by phone at 301-566-6568 or by email at book@braidsbystacy.com.
Focuses on scalp comfort, tension control and braid longevity, with an education-based approach to protective styling and maintenance guidance included in services.
A calm, private setting with one-on-one attention.
