★★★★★ 5.0 SHARLESHA McCord · Dec 2025

I have been coming here for over 20 years. I have no complaints. I did try other shops but always come back. My daughter, niece and sister also comes here. I recommend you try getting your hair braided by Shalom Doris you wont be sorry.

★★★★★ 5.0 Juliana Adeleke · Nov 2025

I love my hair, she made them so beautifully. And she kept asking and checking to see if i was comfortable with the braiding. Im tender headed so she made sure it didn't hurt. I'll be coming back with all the females in my family

Hello my name is Tanieya and I just wanted to talk about my experience with Dakar African braiding shop , for one it was very welcoming and comfortable Dakar’s service is amazing she’s very patient understanding and even reasonable she is also very loyal to her clients and customers . So if you want to find an African hair shop with those qualities then Dakar African Braiding shop would be my top referral.!.

★★★★★ 5.0 Akindeji Olusayo Owolabi · Nov 2025

She's a great hair stylist they're very friendly in this shop and I've not been patronizing any other shop since i tried Dakar African Hair Braiding & Weaving . A trial really convinced me.
