About Grace African Hair Braiding
Grace African Hair Braiding is a hairdresser on S Wayne Rd offering braiding styles that include Senegalese twists, box braids, and knotless braids, among other options. For some services, two braiders work on a single client at once, one in front and one in back, to complete the style. Clients can bring their own hair, including human hair, for the stylists to use, and shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in can be supplied for wash service. Length and size, such as small versus medium, need to be specified when booking a style. The shop takes appointments, and walk-ins are also accepted, with some clients calling ahead to arrange a walk-in time. Payment is cash only. It opens Monday to Saturday and closes on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Knotless braids and boho braids draw the most praise, with reviewers repeatedly describing them as neat, fast, and well parted, often finished within a few hours even on longer natural hair. Senegalese twists and kinky twists also earn compliments for being neat and quickly done, and several mention friendly, professional stylists who worked patiently with clients unsure of their desired style. A recurring caution involves sizing and length not matching what was requested, with reviewers describing braids coming out "Smedium" instead of small or mid back instead of waist length, and one detailed account of inconsistent braid thickness between front and back, hair not fully combed before styling, and pricing that varied between the phone quote and the in-person charge. One parent also describes returning to find her daughter's hair cut into a braided bob without the expected outcome. Several reviewers note they traveled considerable distances and returned repeatedly for lemonade braids and other styles.

“I always have a great experience at Grace African Hair Braiding! My daughter and I got Boho braids this time, and they turned out absolutely beautiful—very neat and well done. I really appreciated the Christian atmosphere, which made the experience even more welcoming and peaceful. They were able to get me in right away and worked quickly without rushing the quality. They didn't hurt my scalp at all! I’m very pleased with my hair and will definitely be back!”

“I was seen by Grace and her stylist who was fantastic. I requested knotless braids and the stylist took the time to discuss my vision, hair health concerns, and the necessary timing. The actual braiding session was comfortable and efficient …”

“I traveled over 30 miles to try this recommended shop. Super friendly and professional. First time visiting. My boho braids were fast and neat. Went on a busy Saturday and still was out in 4 hours. Make sure you specify length, especially if you want shorter braids like a bob. Will be returning. Went back this morning on a weekday and I had two braiders. My kinky twists only took a couple of hours. Same great service I would recommend anyone going here. Friendly atmosphere they are very professional and fast and they are fairly priced. I brought my own human hair and they worked with it. Third time going for lemonade braids, awesome again!!!!”
