This shop is absolutely perfect! My daughter and I went last night she got boho braids by Chantel and I got regular box braids to my waste by umu and bissy and we love our hair, the atmosphere was light and inviting, all the women were really nice and accommodating and I. Happy to find this place because I've been searching for a good African braiding place near me since I moved to the area,most of the shops by me are awful and the braids look like beginners did them and I didn't want to waste my money. So if your looking for a good place with great prices and great service go here! I paid attention to all the other women getting braids and not one of their hair was messed up or ugly! And this shop is 24 hours!!! I can't stress how happy I am with this place enough!

Rama did exceptional from start to finish. I am extremely pleased with my hair, she's always smiling and ensure that I'm ok. I went to the shop the day before to look on each hairdresser work. Rama showed me her styles she did and I got the confidence to give her a try. I booked her for the next day and I was there first thing in the morning. I am happy with my boho hair style I love it! I will recommend Rama for anyone looking for a neat and well done hair. Thanks again Rama!!

Very disappointed with my experience. I went to this salon recently to get traditional box braids. My hair is short and cut into a pixie, so before booking, I made sure to send a video of my hair to confirm if it could be braided. I was told yes, it wouldn’t be a problem. The salon itself was very nice and clean, and the stylist was friendly. However, once the braiding began, it was clear that my hair was not being handled with care or expertise. I asked for small, waist-length braids with clean parts — instead, I ended up with free-formed braids that had no parts, inconsistent lengths, poor blending, and some are already starting to unravel. When I asked why I didn’t have any parts, I was told it was because my hair was short — something I’ve never heard before. If my hair truly couldn’
