About

The salon describes itself as a full-service braiding and weaving space that treats every client like family. It claims more than 15 years of experience, more than 2,000 clients served, and over 50 braid styles, according to the salon.

Protective styling for natural hair is the core of the work. Knotless braids, Senegalese twists, ombré looks and boho styles are the specialties, and every style is customized to the client. Each style begins with a custom consultation, and exact pricing is given by phone because it depends on the individual design.

Appointments are requested through the website, and the salon confirms the date and time within 24 hours by phone or email. Services are by appointment seven days a week. Hours run from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM Monday through Thursday, 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Friday, 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM on Saturday, and 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM on Sunday. Clients of all ages are welcome, including children. The salon says the reviews shown on its site are all five-star ratings.

Premium braiding hair is included in the price of braiding services. Beyond braids, the menu includes sew-in weaves in full or partial installs, faux locs in all lengths, crochet braids, and kids' styles. Specialty and custom requests can be arranged on request.

Scalp-safe techniques are used to help protect the client's hair during installation.
