Quality Braids by Grace (MN)

The business is a braiding studio with two locations: one on Cedar Lake Road South in Minneapolis and one on West Markham Street in Little Rock. Visits are by appointment only and walk-ins are not taken. Clients book online through the Book Now buttons on the site, after choosing a location and a service.

Its braiding is built around celebrating beauty, culture and individuality, with each style adjusted to the client's personality and needs. The business says it uses top-quality products and expert techniques, and that its braiders have years of experience.

Hair is included for most styles, though availability should be confirmed by phone, and styles that need special hair are flagged at booking or confirmation. Clients are asked to arrive with clean, detangled, product-free hair. Estimated appointment times run from one to two hours for simple styles such as cornrows and children's braids, three to five hours for medium or large box braids and twists, and six or more hours for small or intricate styles.

A non-refundable deposit secures each appointment and is applied to the final balance. Changes need at least 24 hours' notice, and later cancellations may forfeit the deposit. Cash, debit, credit and mobile payments are accepted. Gift cards are sold through the booking platform, and group appointments can be booked for yourself and others.

After the visit, touch-up appointments can refresh braids the business has done, and aftercare tips are provided; the business says most styles last about four to eight weeks with proper care. The Little Rock booking listing shows a 5.0 rating from 11 votes. The business also publishes The Braid Journal, a blog with guides on styles, care and braiding terms.

The work centers on tailoring each braided style to the individual client, using what the business describes as high-quality products and skilled technique.
