Bofanta African Hair Braiding

Oct 06, 2024

The ladies are always pleasant. We arrived early on a Saturday morning, and we were the first 2 customers. Try to arrive before 9, in order to cut down on your wait time.

Bofanta and her braiders are family! I've been going there for over 20yrs.

Don’t go to this salon. I asked for knotless braids and the owner did some of them box braid. When I came back to ask her to fix her own mistake, she yelled at me and refused. Very rude people, dirty establishment, and poor quality. Save your money and go to one of the million other braiding salons in DT Brooklyn.

I love Bofanta's shop. I have been going to them for micros for more than 20+ years! Neat, professional, crafty braiders!!!!

I love going here. It's so convenient. All the ladies are nice. They don't braid tight AT ALL. I've never gotten my hair braided as much as I've been getting it braided since I started going to these ladies!!!

I've been here many times, the only comment I have to make is that they do take their time when they want to.. I always inform them of my urgency. I should not be waiting in between lunch breaks for my hair to be braided. Besides this - great experience overall.

I showed up early before she opened and i was finish at 2pm. They wore masks and so did i. They didn’t have the exact color that i wanted but she did the style i wanted perfectly. 8/10 It was worth $170

I specifically told the braider I wanted her to blend three colors. She initially blended the shades, but was obviously frustrated. I was so incredibly disappointed to find she had settled for lazy incompetence and just slapped the three colors on top of each other resulting in uneven chunks of colors in my braids. I was getting my hair done for an event in which my picture will be taken. Also this mess she created throws off the nail art colors and design I wanted. I believe she knew full well that she had failed to deliver as she had trouble looking me in the eye afterwards. She made a conscious decision to not provided me with what I had explicitly asked for and sneak some hackey nonsense on my scalp. I gave BoFanta 2 stars as the braids are not loose and to a casual observer not a wretched eyesore. However, I know the braids are the opposite of what I clearly asked for and it will bother me for the next 6 to 8 weeks (or less). That's another issue of annoyance for me - who's going to sit for another 5 hours to have her redo all these box braids? She used blended hair in the first braids and became increasingly sloppy as she moved to the top of my head. Awful braider, awful service, awful business model; a real con artist. I will never return to this shop and I strongly suggest that if you are seeking something beyond monochrome braids or are looking for a braider that takes pride in making geometrically precise parts so your braids and cornrows really pop, go elsewhere (and not across the street).
