About Queen Maman African Hair Braiding

Queen Maman African Hair Braiding is a great place for braids. The workers are very nice, diligent, and fast. Customers love the service and get compliments on their hair everywhere. The shop is clean and feels very welcoming. One customer got waist length boho for $220 with hair included, finished in just a few hours. Another client and her daughter arrived at 8:45am, were seated by 9am, and done by 5pm with two breaks. The braids lasted about two months, even with washing. The braiders are patient, do not pull on the head, and color match hair perfectly. Many return with their teens, and different braiders have braided their hair each time—always leaving them happy. The only complaint is that Queen Maman is not too great at responding to texts, and there can be a language barrier. Wait times can be long when the shop is packed, and braiding may take longer than hoped. Overall, it is a 4/5 salon recommended for anyone looking for a deal and style.

    I would never recommend this hair braiding shop to anyone. My experience was beyond disappointing from start to finish.

    The shop was filthy and had a terrible smell as soon as I walked in. I even saw rats and roaches inside, which made me extremely uncomfortable and raised serious concerns about cleanliness and sanitation.

    On top of that, the customer service was awful. My hair was left unfinished, and I was promised that the owner would fix it by giving me a new style. Instead of honoring that promise, the owner completely ghosted me. My calls and messages were ignored, and there was no effort to make things right.

    I paid for a professional service...read full review

    The 125 location I was charged $85 For my son‘s twist and that’s after I had to tell her that there’s no hair added.. She started at $100. Never again!!!! Overpriced.

    Update: Not sure who said “fire” absolutely not and most certainly overpriced 🤷🏾‍♀️
