MAX Braiding Studio

The studio on Seven Mile Road is a newly renovated space that the business describes as clean and comfortable. The business calls itself Detroit's premier braiding studio, a claim it makes about itself rather than one independently verified here.

Braiding is the core of the service. Styles include box braids in a range of sizes and lengths, knotless braids with a lightweight, tension-free finish, cornrows in straight-back, stitch, freestyle and custom patterns, boho braids with loose curls added to knotless braids, twists such as Senegalese, Passion and Spring twists, and goddess locs wrapped with wavy curls.

Braided styles are priced between $180 and $300, with the final cost set by braid size and hair length. No extra charge applies to the Kanekalon braiding hair, a premium grade, used in each braided style. Velvet Quality Human Hair can be added to select styles for $49.99 or more.

Booking requires a $50 non-refundable deposit. After booking, clients are asked to send a photo of the look they want so pricing and hair can be prepared. Appointments usually take about 4 to 5 hours, though times can vary. The studio serves clients of all ages, including children from age 5 and up, and is open 9AM to 11PM daily.

The studio uses premium hair products and techniques meant to protect natural hair.
