About

It is open Monday through Friday from 9am to 6pm and Saturday from 8am to 2pm, and it is closed on Sundays. The salon says it aims for an above-and-beyond client experience, and a shampoo is included with every service. Healthy hair care is named as its top priority.

Braid work is a major part of the menu. Crochet braids start at $30, spring twists start at $200 and rise with length, and Miracle Knots are also offered, with pricing based on length and detail. Kid braids are done on natural hair only. Hair is generally not included in braid prices, and several styles are booked after a phone consultation.

Color services range from vivid fashion shades such as red, purple, blue and pink, which start at $35 and begin with pre-lightened hair, to permanent full coverage for natural and gray hair. Other options include demi and semi permanent color, retouches for one to two inches of new growth, full and partial foil highlights, ombre, and double process color. Extra tubes add cost on most color services, and styling is not included.

Beyond color and braids, the salon offers haircuts, clipper cuts, facial waxing, relaxer touch-ups, natural hair styling and locs. Natural hair styles start at $80, and formal or event styles are arranged through a consultation. Clients should know that changes need at least 24 hours' notice, that a $25 fee applies to changes made inside that window, and that they are financially responsible for every service they book.

Healthy hair care comes first, and the salon describes its service as going above and beyond what clients expect.
