Do not go here‼️ I went on a Weds to get my hair braided for a retreat that Friday by Saturday night my hair was falling out in the back. I asked how much will my hair be. They said $120 , it will be more if I wanted length, I said no I'm too old. I get there show them pictures of side corn roll braids (lemonade braids) she asked about the length I repeated the fact that I did not want it long. My hair gets braided I'm trying to figure out why it's still taking so long, she added extra hair, my hair was down to my knees when I stood up. I'm 5'3‼️ She had a nerve to say $180...being nice I still tipped her.... I wake up this morning to another braid missing. At this point I get pissed and start taking my hair out. That's when I felt bald spots. I take a photo of the back of my hair and here are the results. 45% of my hair is missing. I can see if it's the little hairs in the back‼️ This is half of the back of my head‼️

Recently went again and compared to previous years I’ve been there I’ve noticed a huge change in the work dynamic. I think all the workers right now have a great chemistry and they were extremely professional when I went! i got bohemian knotless + they supplied the hair including the human hair curls. I loved my hair and it was done quick and as a tender headed girl the best part was that my hair wasn’t on fire by the time they finished! Highly highly highly highly recommend!!!

I come to the shop to get my hair braided. I never had a bad experience far as my hair getting done. I walk out of there without my head hurting and that’s a good thing cause most shops when you leave and your head is hurting because they braided so tightly or they pulling your scalp. My braids always last long time. What I don’t like about The workers is they always late. When you call For an appointment the day before Dion says OK you can come in at that time. Somebody will be there. When Ifor an appointment the day before Dion says OK you can come in at that time. Somebody will be there. When I get there, nobody is there and if somebody else is outside waiting, they gone before you and they didn’t even make an appointment. I said I will be there at 8:30. No one came to 930. They really need to work on their punctuality. And another thing. Nothing against no kids. But when some of the girls are braiding hair and they have their children with them, they have to stop, and then you sit there for 30 minutes waiting for them to come back and braid your hair.

DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS SHOP!!! The worst braiding experience ever. I have been going to this salon for nine years. I have only dealt with the owner. The owner must be in Africa, now. The salon is filthy. The stylist are loud & rude. Watch your bag because they will over charge. All four ladies cross talk in their native tongue loudly over the customer’s head. Roaches and flies everywhere. There is no hand soap or toilet paper in the bathroom. Looks like the floor hasn’t been swept or mopped in a year. Be aware if you show a picture of the style you would like, you won’t get the style. Yes, your braids may be neat but it will not be the style you requested. If you tell the brained that she is braiding tight, they will start speaking in their native tongue- saying rude things about you and laugh. One braider made rude remarks about a lady being over weight. Another customer yelled at her braider for styling her hair wrong. Customer told her “if you didn’t know how to style you should have said so. Instead you wasted my time & hair. I’m not paying for this”! Customer was absolutely correct. When she left they called her rude names. My hair was braided so tight after I told her stop and don’t do it so tight. I left and took my hair down that night. I could not sleep it was so painful. Worst customer service ever! DO NOT PATRONIZE THIS SHOP!!!

I went on February 19,2024 to get 2 corn rows. The first braider was removed from doing my hair and another lady took over. She was worse because she cut my actual hair not the loose synthetic hairs. I had a pound of gel in my hair. It didn't last a week. I had to ask to get my ends closed with rods and hot water. This is not the place to get your hair done. Anybody with a good review please enlighten me with who the braider is and tell them to teach the other's.
