About

Skylah owns the business and works as one of its stylists.

The menu is built around braids, ponytails, buns and freestyle designs. Each style lists how long it takes, from about 30 minutes for a crybaby service to around five and a half hours for freestyle back braids, and what it costs, from $25 to $250. The listings also say what is included, such as hair, beads or accessories, and whether the hair needs to be washed and blow dried first.

Booking requires a $25 deposit. Appointments are canceled if a client arrives more than 15 minutes late. Children are dropped off, and parents are not allowed to wait in the salon. The salon provides snacks and juice for children.

Between appointments the stylists offer a free clean-up cut. Clients can ask for a plan toward a particular look, along with advice on keeping their hair healthy. The salon says its stylists keep up with current trends and techniques.

Hair is treated as the core craft here, and the stated aim is for each child to leave feeling and looking their best.
