I had a great experience at Gina Braiding Shop! The service was excellent, the staff was professional and friendly, and my braids came out beautifully. The atmosphere was welcoming, and they really take their time to make sure you're happy with the results. I'll definitely be coming back and recommending Gina's to my friends and family.

If I could give this experience lower than 1 star I would. I went to Gina's because my mother had gone to her in the past and they have a good rapport. Weeks prior to my appointment (April 20) I sent photos to Gina expressing the style I wanted and the color. She reassured me that she knew how to do the style and that she would get the color match.

My experience here was mixed. A customer came in asking only for a wash and braid down on short hair. A braid down is ugly cornrows worn under a wig or hat.

And it looked like she brought in her own products! I know it may have been embarrassing for her, and I felt bad for her because no one wants to argue about prices. I als

Please do not go here for any type of hair service. Y’all played my friend so bad. Not even 2 minutes after the appointment, her hair started to frizz up. A MESS.

Worst place ever !! They lie and tell you they can do styles they can't do . Complete waste of time . They only know how to do box braids and not even well !! If you want any type of cornrow or neat hairstyle without small hairs being caught or your scalp throbbing then do not go here . Trash
