About

The name Sankofa, according to the salon, refers to going back to recover what is worth keeping. The business draws on beauty traditions and cultural influences from African, Caribbean, African-American and wider global communities, and it has set out a goal of growing into a full beauty and self-care destination.

Braiding is the core of the work, covering boho, knotless, box, cornrow, stitch, twist and kids styles, with locs retwists and sew-in installs alongside. Braiding hair is included for most styles, and for boho braids the salon suggests two packs of hair by length: 18 inches for shoulder length, 20 inches for mid-back and 22 inches for waist length. Prices are starting points, and the salon describes its braiding as premium and its pricing as transparent.

Clients can book online, by text or call, or walk in when a stylist is free. Online booking includes appointment reminders and scheduling around the client's availability. The salon describes its setting as clean, safe and relaxing, and reports a 4.9 rating from more than 350 Google reviews.

The shop also sells braiding hair in black and brown, pre-stretched braiding hair, hair care products, accessories and branded merchandise. A Royals membership comes in four tiers with discounts on braiding, touch-ups and hair care, along with birthday rewards, and the higher tiers add priority booking and a dedicated stylist. The salon says it plans to add barbering, nails, makeup, lashes and other personal-care services alongside its braiding and natural hair care.

Work is rooted in braiding and natural hair care, drawing on African, Caribbean and African-American traditions along with wider global styling influences.

The salon describes its setting as clean, safe and relaxing.
