About

Fatou Braiding is a Charlotte hair braiding business, also listed as Fatou Hair Braiding. The business presents itself as an expert in traditional African hair braiding and describes its braiders as fast, quality professionals who aim to go beyond what clients expect.

Braids cover the widest range, from simple cornrows and two-feed-in styles to box braids, micro braids, knotless and Boho Knotless braids, crochet braids, Bantu knots, Fulani, Ghana, tree, tribal and fishtail braids. Braided styling such as braided buns, ponytails, bobs, Dutch and French braids, and straight-back or invisible braids is also offered, along with a take-down service.

Pricing is organized into three session tiers. Basic braids start at $45 and cover simple cornrows for up to two hours with standard sizing and hair care tips. Premium braids start at $85 for more complex designs over up to four hours, with extensions, beads and accessories. Luxury braids start at $125 for bespoke designs over up to six hours, with premium hair and a luxury finish. Many individual services are listed with starting prices only, and the services page does not give prices for every style.

The salon is open every day from 8 AM to 8 PM. Appointments can be booked through the website, and during peak hours it keeps emergency appointment slots; clients are asked to call for same-day availability.

The business says its braiders pay close attention to detail and that it works with each client's budget and taste, offering what it describes as the best value.
