Established in 2000, the salon describes itself as locally owned and woman-owned. It is open every day from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm at its Ashland Avenue location.
Braiding is the core of the business. Cornrows start at $60, and box braids, knotless braids, micro braids and Senegalese twists start at $180 each, with hair included in the price of every braid style. Other options include casamas, corkscrew, flat twist, interlock, invisible and kinky twist styles, as well as tree braids. The salon says its braiders have more than 20 years of experience and describes its styling options as unique. Braiding can take from 1 to 6 hours or more, depending on hair length and style.
Weaving covers sew-in, partial, micro-link, fusion, lace closure and frontal weaves, along with full lace wigs. Weave styles start at $70 and crochet styles start at $80. Human hair extensions come in a range of textures, lengths and colors. According to the salon, a full sew-in usually takes 2 to 4 hours, and individual consultations are offered to weaving clients.
The salon suggests a weave maintenance appointment every 4 to 6 weeks and says a weave can last 6 to 8 weeks with proper care. Braids typically last up to 6 weeks with maintenance, depending on the style. Clients can walk in, book same-day appointments by phone, or request an appointment online through a form that asks whether they want braiding, weaving or other services. Cash, Zelle and Cash App are accepted, a $10 discount applies Monday through Thursday, and services are offered in English.
Weaving clients get an individual consultation, and braid work uses quality hair extensions and products.
