About

Seattle African Braids is an independently woman-owned braiding business in Tukwila that describes itself as licensed. It has been operating for eight years and works mainly on protective styles built with extensions.

The menu is organized by style. Boho and goddess braids include human hair options such as deep wave boho braids and gypsy/boho knotless braids. Knotless box braids are offered in many lengths and sizes, from small and medium up to butt-length, along with an extra-small, extra-full option. Senegalese twists, natural hair twists, feed-in braids and cornrows, Miracle Knots (where clients bring their own hair), and separate kids' and men's braid services round out the list. A consultation is available before booking, and the salon also offers takedowns, shampoo and blow-dries, silk presses, and an ACV rinse for clients sensitive to extensions.

A visit includes a complimentary trim, along with coffee, tea and hot cocoa during the appointment. To confirm a booking, a 50% non-refundable deposit is required, and it goes toward the total. The remaining balance is paid in person in cash. Appointments starting at 5pm or later carry an extra $30 fee, Sunday appointments carry an extra $50, and holiday appointments carry an extra $40. Clients are asked to arrive with freshly washed, oil-free hair that has been blown out straight, and a blowout can be added for $45. Prices are listed as fixed.

The business describes itself as Washington State's fastest braiders and says it has won the Best Braider Award twice; these are its own claims. It also offers a three-month intensive braiding class, listed at $5,000, and says it uses premium hair care products and top-quality extensions.

Focuses on protective braiding and twist styles built with extensions, with premium hair care products.
