Wont be back there again. I was getting my hair done mainly by the owner. She was constantly on her phone. Leaving to eat, talk to others, etc. I had to ask her multiple times to finish my hair. She still kept getting up. The place was very dirty. I saw two roaches. Lastly, she told me $130 on the phone, but ended up asking for $165. Please do not come here.

i got my braids done by Amy the owner she was very nice and the place looked under control and all the workers were very nice, the worker even gave me a discount because there’s a 10 percent off deal for men in September and October.

This salon has it goods and bad days. Not all the stylist know how to braid there. I would say maybe 1 or 2 know how to braid and with that you have to be very detailed on how you want your hair to look like. And the place is dirty. I would advise to go else where because it’s not worth it

Come here for great costumer service, and enjoy the downtime while braiding your hair. I always get the best service and the most complements on my hair after each appointment. Highly recommend for authentic African hair braiding. It’s really all love from this shop

1 rating because i had 4 months in with my starter locs , i asked for 2 strand twist for a retwist. then one of her stylists combed everything out. im never going there again and never letting someone touch my hair if they dont know what they are doing


Feb 06, 2024

Horrible went in for a sew in & she messed up the whole sew in after I asked her if she knows what she doing she said yes. I'm highly upset I won't be ever coming back. ALSO the owner is on vacation & she left 3 woman who dont speck a lick of English. Amy daughter proceeded to tell me to get my money back & let her remove it. AFTER I SAT INT HE CHAIR FOR 5 hrs WORST PLACE TO GO TO IM CALLING THE STATE TO GET THIS PLACE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY‼️

I needed my hair braided last minute because my normal places was crowded and she told me to come right now and she charged me 40 less. My hair came out amazing and I got bunches of compliments. My new go to spot.

If I could give this place 0 stars I would! I came to this place to get a wash and a braid down for my wig installation. The lady washed my hair and combed it the whole time during the blow dry. She was rough and didn't care about my hair. I showed a photo of what I wanted (about 15 straight backs) she gave me about 9 braids and was so neglectful they were going in a different direction. I didn't get upset because they were going under my wig and my hairstylist managed to get my wig super flat despite my lumpy braids. But it doesn't stop there! I brought my daughter in the next day (it was Easter weekend and EVERYONE was full and we had a flight to catch!) they were rough with my daughter's hair and her braids were so tight her scalp was scrunched up! When she finished it looked like she had her braids in for 2 weeks already! The braids were amateur and not worth the $80 that they charged. We will never get serviced here again I don't care what holiday or how many flights we need to catch! We will go on vacation with 5 month old hairstyles before we ever step foot in here again!!!
