I love my hair every time. I arrive early (around 7:30am) so that I can be the first one or two in the chair. The shop opens at 8am. I usually get bra length boho or flip over braids and they are perfect everytime. They braid fast and not too tight. You need to pick a style that matches how long you can handle sitting. I come with my laptop and ready to multi-task while getting my hair done. They provide a little table which is super convenient AND the chairs are comfortable. I highly recommend. I get so many compliments every time.
I’m surprised this place has such a low rating. I called at the beginning of the week and I believe I spoke with Fatou’ or the owner and she was super sweet and answered all my questions. I booked my appt and came in and let me say huge s/o to Mary and Mae they had me in and out in 2.5 hrs! I recently did the big chop and love my natural hair but I wanted some braids before my vacation and they didn’t disappoint. I’ve already had 3 compliments on my hair. I like the fact the didn’t braid too tight and the parting is neat. I also love the fact the didn’t use that gel stuff that most hair dressers use when getting braids it feels more...read full review
Overall, my experience was good. The girl that was helping was super sweet. I think her name was Ny. Fatou did my hair. I got there around 10 AM and she begin around 12 - 12:30. She braids really fast I will say that. I do believe they take too many clients at once. Some people have two people working on one person, while someone else is still waiting. Everyone hair was super cute though that I saw get done. Everyone was nice and friendly. I would recommend this place, but I recommend setting an appointment or going early. They get very busy very fast. Be patient because they are human and they deserve breaks to eat, drink, etc.
