Customer Review Summary
Against that, a recurring set of complaints describes rough handling and disappointing results: one reviewer reports a bald patch developing after four simple braids, saying the stylist pulled her edges despite being told otherwise, while another says box braids didn't match the requested style and looked overgrown far too soon. Others describe boho braids that turned into regular braids without being told to bring their own hair beforehand, an appointment where the braider stopped to make food and coffee before starting, and one account calling the owner rough and inattentive during a session.

“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.”

“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 …”

“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.”
