    This was my first experience going to an African braiding shop, and i must say i will definitely be back. The customer service alone made me want to return. I suffered with hair loss and i explained it to the owner and she was still able to make my hair look so beautiful. I got to the shop at 7am and they started working on my hair by 7:30am i was done by 12:40pm. My style was knotless boho braids waist length. I would definitely recommend going to Dakar if you want your hair done quickly, while still look good and with amazing customer service.

    Outstanding! They were fast, but gentle. Two braiders teamed up to finish my hair in record time, without sacrificing quality. The price was great for the quality. I will definitely return.

    Absolutely love my boho knotless waist length braids. Due to renovations being done in their shop, I went to their place of residence. Got there for 7am, and was done by 3ish! Braids were all parted the same size, each braid had about 5-6 boho pieces added, and most importantly they showed me what to use to care for the style. I will most certainly be backkkk!!
