I’m not a reviewer so leaving this means it’s serious lbvs. I got my hair done less than 3 weeks ago and it look like it’s been 2 months. I’ve had loops and stray pieces coming all out my head. Today I finally reached out to the owner Cryst. She tells me to come by just for me to get there and they begin tugging and pulling at my braids about 2/3 pieces fell out for them today. Meanwhile I’ve been dealing with the full pieces coming out for almost 3 weeks. The lady insisted on telling me it wasn’t happening because pieces would be all on the floor. And basically she sat going back and forth with me trying to prove me wrong rather then fixing the situation. Idk how they do for regular knotless but I do NOT recommend getting boho from this place your hair is gonna be thinning and a mess by t

I’ve been coming to this location for over a year. They’re accommodating, quick, and easy to communicate with. There’s no place in town that braid as small as this shop and the prices are good! I actually fly in just to get my hair done here!! You will not be disappointed!

I’ve been visiting this salon the last two years. The staff is prompt and friendly. I scheduled my appt and am able to get in within 24-48 hrs. My braids are neat and last at least two months. My hair has grown out so much. Thank you Crystal and staff! See you guys next year!

Had a great first experience today! The shop was super clean, the owner was sooo sweet and I LOVE MY BRAIDS (small knotless waist) these the best braids I’ve had since moving back to the area and I’ve tried a couple shops.
