★★★★★ 5.0 Ray Hansen · Feb 2026

I had a great experience here. The staff was professional, welcoming, and clearly very skilled at what they do. My braids came out neat, clean, and exactly how I wanted them, and they were done in a reasonable amount of time. The atmosphere was friendly and comfortable, which made the whole appointment enjoyable. If you’re looking for quality braiding with attention to detail, I’d definitely recommend this place.

Babacar and his team are extremely professional and talented. They always do my hair exactly the way I request it. The shop is clean, the ambiance is great, and everyone is so kind and welcoming. They even feed me lunch sometimes, which makes the experience feel extra special. I always leave happy and confident with my hair!

I am a paying customer and they treated me like I was an inconvenience to them! #Where do they do that at?!?!!!!! The lady who was doing my hair got lost in translation, and called Babacar. He (Babacar) then said the problem was my NATURAL hair and got mad at me for not choosing a look that the stylist thinks is more suitable for me. What happened to the customer is always right?!? I dont care what the stylist wants!!! Its about what I want. And where is your customer service? You gonna insult my natural hair?

These are some gifted braiders. I have been coming for 3 years after my hair fell put from dying it platinum. It was an inch long. Now its fully grown back and I still stay in braids. IM HOOKED. Everytime I try another shop or in someone's living room I regret it. Its worth the money and the time it takes to be so fly;)

★★★★★ 5.0 Tanika Ward · Jun 2022

Love this braiding shop. I consider Babacar and Ms.B., my family. They are always flexible with scheduling and get me out within a couple of hours. I highly recommend that you try them out. Most importantly, they do a fantastic job at every style one requests.
