    Before you read below just know I was very satified with my hair style and the the time it took to complete. My personal opinion does not take away that auntie runs a tight ship and these ladies does amazing work. The 3 clients that finished before me each had beautiful neat braids and were super happy with how their hair turned out. They each had a custom color combination that came out as they requested. The prices were all reasonable and no one had any issues paying what was asked. I think the prices went up $10 so some were trying to negotiate that but the price is the price and she tells you before you start.

    I walked in with a friend, she went in for knotless and I went for stitch. The only issue i had was they weren't able to do the style I originally wanted. So I changed to something a bit different. Great price, the stylist did my hair quickly and neatly. My friends knotless were also beautiful and neat. We were in and out quickly. We will be back.
    FYI - They dont take card, we already came with cash. They do have an ATM on sight but the limit is about 150.00. From what I witness with another customer that was there.

    Thank you for your service ladies!
