About Mama African Hair Braiding
Mama African Hair Braiding receives mixed reviews. Customers appreciate the quality of the hairstyles, with one mentioning that their braids last 4 to 6 months and that the stylist does a good job.

Appointments often start late, with waiting times of over an hour, and some clients have experienced long hours of 8 to 10 hours for styles that previously took less time.

Mama has been braiding my hair every since she came to the USA. She braids my hair very good. My braids last anywhere from 4 to 6 months. My only problem is that she talks on the phone waaay to much and it slows her down. She is never on time for the appointment. I spend 8 to 10 hours, when it used to be 4 at the most. I've got to find someone else because time is priceless. She doesn't know how to manage her time.
Girlfriend is having her hair braided and it looks great. She's been coming here since she moved and they do a great job!!! The hair she bought was a little short for her hairstyle so they replaced/traded for the longer hair at no cost.
