About

The Braidfactory works on braid styles such as box braids, cornrows and twists, along with hair extensions and styling. Its stated aim is to offer current braid styles chosen to suit each client's taste and personality, and it describes its braiders as skilled and experienced.

The business offers Sisterlocks, a locking system for natural hair. According to the site, the method uses no chemicals and avoids excessive tightening. The site estimates the first locking session at about seven hours for medium-length hair and says the initial process takes roughly two-thirds as long as installing extensions of comparable size. Relaxed hair can also be locked, though the transition is longer.

Its online shop lists prices in US dollars. Listed prices run from $45 for men's design cornrows to $750 for a Sister or Brotherlocks install, with knotless braids and peekaboo braid styles at $185, Boho Bob at $180 and kinky twists at $135. Children's braids and bald braids are listed at $85, and loc maintenance is also listed at $85.

The video gallery shows examples including jumbo knotless braids, tribal braids, Valentine's Day braids and men's Versace and freestyle cornrows. The business also sells T-shirts under the BraidFactory24 name, which it describes as premium apparel designed for style and comfort. It has accounts on Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.

Aims to provide high-quality, current braid styles suited to each client's taste and personality.
