About Aude's Touch African Hair

Aude's Touch African Hair is a beauty salon on S Cannon Blvd in Kannapolis, with services built around box braids, knotless braids, cornrows, and sew-ins. Appointments are scheduled by phone, and Aude's husband typically answers and sets the times. The team works by appointment, and same-day slots are sometimes available for children's hair braiding. Ms. Aude's daughter also works on clients alongside her. The salon operates Monday through Saturday and stays closed on Sundays. Payment is cash only, a detail worth planning around before a visit.

Customer Review Summary

The recurring complaint centers on inconsistent execution and money: one reviewer describes mismatched box sizes and unraveling braids that were glued at the ends, plus a refusal of any refund after being charged more than the stated price range. A separate reviewer reports a scheduling mix-up where an appointment made for a son's cornrows was turned away on arrival because men's styles weren't being done that day. Another mentions confusion over pricing not being set upfront under the cash-only policy. Despite these accounts, most reviewers describe leaving with braids they were happy with and plans to return.

    “I would give no stars if I could. I called on a Wednesday and told her husband, he's the only one that answers the phone and does her scheduling, that I wanted to make an appointment for my SON to get cornrows for Friday. Her husband told me to call back Friday morning to make an appointment for that day. I called back that Friday and explained to her husband that he told me to call back today to schedule an appointment for my SON to get cornrows. He told me what time to bring my son. I bring my son early and Aude tell's me, " I do not do men's braids, I am only doing girls for back to school". I explained to her that I spoke to her husband twice and told him both times the appointment was for my son. She then tells me to try the hair salon nextdoor. This was very poor communication and I was extremely disappointed. Be very cautious when trying to schedule and appointment here and communicating with her husband. I had a bad experience with her years ago, I should have known better than to try to give them another chance.”

    “Update: it took you 2 months to reply to my review. 1. If you set a price i would’ve known from the beginning on how much i needed to pay and get at the ATM before the service started since you have a cash only policy, but that wasn’t the …”

    “I was in desperate need of someone braiding my daughters hair after school. I was able to get a same day appointment here. There were two clients already in the chair when I called, and it was sort of late in the afternoon but they were so …”

    “Over charged me for a shitty job on my hair. On the outside my hair look really good when in a ponytail but on the inside my hair is a mess. I have box braids and my boxes are different sizes. I suppose to have small box braids so my boxes are supposed to be small. Her husband is rude, he told me that they don’t do refunds. I just wanted some of my money back after I realized my hair was a mess from the middle of my head on down. Aude didn’t braid my hair, she had someone else do it. However, Aude called herself fixing my unraveling braids by using nail glue to stop my ends from unraveling. Aude seen the messed up boxes in my head while she was glueing my braids but didn’t say anything. I didn’t know she was glueing my ends (I thought she was braiding them down & knotting them), I found out she used glue when I went to move and my hair was stuck to the chair 🤦🏾‍♀️ I got my hair done on 4/4/25 it took 12hrs, I didn’t leave until 2:53am 4/5/25. My hair started unraveling that same day. That following Tuesday was when Aude glued my ends. A couple of days later (Friday night) was when I realized I had different size boxes. I called and Aude husband answered and I told him the problem and that I would like some of my money back. He was rude and told me that they don’t do refunds and also that they can only use so many packs of hair on the paying clients that’s why my hair was the way it was, and some more bs. Also, over the phone he will tell you for box braids the prices are $160, $180, & $200. Those 3 prices depend on the size and length and however I was overcharged $280 for this bs. I learned a lesson and from now on I would take my money elsewhere to a different African shop. I do not recommend them to anyone, also hair was taken from a client who was there getting her hair braided when I was there. When she went to the bathroom Aude tossed some of her hair to the braided who was braiding my hair. So basically that’s stealing because they did not provide that hair the young girl bought with her that she purchased herself.”
