About

The Braid Factory has been providing hair braiding services in Minneapolis for more than 19 years. It is a braiding-focused salon, and its menu centers on braided and protective styles, with locs, twists, sew-in weaves and perms also offered.

The salon describes itself as one of the most trusted names for hair braiding in Minneapolis and describes its quality as the highest. These are the salon's own claims. It also describes its prices as very reasonable.

Appointments and consultations are booked by phone at 612-824-2243. Because the salon runs a no-waiting policy, clients are asked to pick an exact appointment time, since the stylist waits for the client at that time rather than the other way around.

To hold an appointment, a deposit of 20% of the style price is required. The deposit guarantees the booking and is nonrefundable.

The salon runs on exact appointment times: the stylist waits for the client at the booked time, so clients are asked to commit to a specific slot.
