Creative African Braids

Nov 2016

I've been going to Leemu since I was 18. I'm now 32. Love her. I started going when she was working in someone's shop in downtown Oakland. From there it was to her house on Stow, than to her 1st independent shop on Webster and 14th to her now current location.

I got a huge tub of African Shea Butter that was well priced, lightly processed and sweet to the smell. The neighborhood reminded me of Divisadero St. In SF beach in the early 1990s with international foods and multi ethnic businesses. I had some Cambodian food a couple of blocks away that was quite good.

I love Leemu. I've been going to her for YEARS and always get compliments on my hair. Her schedule is flexible and she will even call in her glam squad for help (I call them that... not her, she's very humble). She's a fantastic braider and so are the women she calls in. She has high standards and is always sure to keeps an eye on the work being done. IMPORTANT: She doesn't accept credit cards for braid services
