    First, the salon is beautiful, very clean, and the staff is very nice. My braids look fabulous, they are very neat but a little too tight. However, I arrived at the salon at 9am to get box braids and left at 2pm. My hair is very short and I usually wear a short pixie cut. They charged me $250 for box braids just on the top of my hair. I didn’t receive any braids around the sides or back of my hair. Not to mention I didn’t get them very long.They were braided half way down my back to my bra strap. The parking is meter only and they give out tickets quickly except Sundays.

    Don’t listen to the reviews try the place out for yourself. I’ve been going here for about 2 years now. I am satisfied every time as with the results, and all of the ladies are very nice. I will say one thing if you are not the first person in one of their chairs, the wait time is 2-3 hours. I recommend getting there at least 30 minutes before opening time and if you don’t just go another day. The hair is included even boho. I have never paid more than $220, even when I added boho. I am usually out within 4-5 hours, they are very quick.

    I went here and they were really rude. I don’t understand why. I have been coming to this place little over a year now just to get my braid down to do my wigs. And they were fighting and super disrespectful to other customers. I was fine and had no issue but I don’t want to see people fighting and arguing while I’m going my hair…very unprofessional
