About

According to the salon, braiding is an art form that began in West Africa and spread around the world over several hundred years. Its work follows traditional African designs, including cornrows, box braids, goddess braids, micro braids, and three-strand braids worked with small, square-edged partings.

Clients can book online or by calling the salon at 908-293-2114, and the business also takes questions by email. Braiders talk through the look a client has in mind and add that input to shape a custom style. The business says its braiders have more than ten years of experience combined.

Prices are listed as starting amounts, so the final cost depends on the style chosen. The business describes its pricing as budget-friendly.

Custom styles are shaped around each client's input, delivered efficiently and professionally, with hair care suggestions matched to the client's hair type.
