Styles we offer

  • Knotless braids — gentler on the scalp than traditional box braids; flat, comfortable, and natural-looking from day one.
  • Cornrows — clean, classic, straight-back cornrows for everyday wear or as a foundation for sew-ins.
  • Freestyle cornrows — patterned cornrows in any design you bring; a chance to express yourself.
  • Boho braids — knotless braids with curly hair pieces left out for a soft, romantic finish.
  • Ponytail installs — sleek, structured ponytails for events or anytime you want a polished look.
  • Quick weaves — a fast, full-look protective install for clients who want length and volume without commitment.

How to prep for your braiding appointment

  • Wash and blow-dry your hair the day before — clean, dry hair braids tighter and lasts longer.
  • Bring inspiration photos. Two or three reference shots are ideal so we can match your vision exactly.
  • If you're bringing your own hair, choose pre-stretched braiding hair for the smoothest install.
  • Eat before your appointment — long sessions go faster on a full stomach.

How long do braids last?

With proper care, knotless braids and cornrows can last 4–8 weeks. Protect at night with a satin scarf or bonnet, moisturize the scalp twice a week, and avoid heavy products that can build up at the roots. Your stylist will walk you through aftercare specific to the style you choose.
