“I would not recommend this hair braiding place. The shop was not clean, they were not on time, and the service was very unprofessional. While I was waiting, the braider stopped to make food and coffee instead of starting my appointment. I asked for boho braids, but I ended up with regular braids because apparently I was supposed to bring the boho hair myself — which they never told me beforehand. Overall, poor communication, poor timing, and not the style I asked for. I would not go back”

“First n last time going here, so i got my hair done last month n it looks like I've had in for 6 months. I don't recommended going here. BTW it doesn't look nothing like box braids at all.”
- Tayler Richards
“I used to come here because they were gentle and actually cared for my hair. The last two visits have been completely different—rough, careless, and honestly unacceptable. They used the wrong combs and brushes, tried to re–blow dry hair I’d …”
- Margaret Njomo
“If you go here do not get your hair done my the owner! She is rude and very ruff with ppl hair! She don’t care if she hurting you and she always on her phone or yelling not paying attention to the clients hair. This is the worst service I have ever received from a braided and will not be back!”
- Shayla Holmes
“I absolutely loved my micro braids! The staff was extremely professional and worked quickly. They even offer a service to remove the braids! I would highly recommend this business for all protective braiding styles.”

Customer Review Summary
Praise centers on gentle braiding for tender-headed clients: one parent says a 3-year-old got cornrows without a single tear, and another says the braiders took their time and kept checking that their head was okay. Others mention micro braids done quickly, braided Bantu knots adjusted from a photo, and a braid removal service. Complaints weigh just as heavily. Several say the result missed the request: box braids that looked nothing like box braids, seven braids that looked nothing like the reference photo, and regular braids instead of boho because the client was never told to bring the hair. Others describe rough handling, including one who says the owner yelled and stayed on the phone, and a longtime client who found the last two visits careless. One reviewer reports a late start and a braider stopping to make food and coffee. One client reports a bald patch forming within days of four simple braids.
