★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Saniya Hall · Aug 2025

This was the worst braiding experience ever. I pre-called and made a 8am appointment for micro-braids and was quoted $180. I sat there for 2 HOURS waiting for Soda to come and do my hair, someone who was getting the same style as me was serviced BEFORE ME when she came in 45 minutes AFTER ME, and I was quoted a HIGHER PRICE when Soda’s sister came in. Soda’s sister is EXTREMELY rude; she told another customer that I knew to “mind her business” when she defended me, and BUMPED ME HARD AS HELL ON PURPOSE when I went to go to leave. Mind you I kept my composure and was extremely respectful throughout this whole encounter. The entire time they kept telling me “she’ll be here in a minute, she’ll be here at 9, she’ll be here in a minute” and she still never came by the time I left at 10am. DON’T
