I was unfortunate to end up with a bad appt/braider with name starting with«c.» After confirming my appt for twists the day before, and the day of, then @ the salon for twists; after ¼th of my hair, and 2 – 3 hrs into it I realize the braider is doing single braids. I should have just stopped payed my dues and left for a different place, but being on a time restriction and after conversing with the braider, we continued. @ the end of the ordeal, come to find out she has done large parts in my hair, 2 days after the braids were done, 2 fell out. My hair was natural and fairly thick and not short enough for it to fall out. She left the front of my head-«baby» hair alone prevent breakage per her assessment, but had tried to maintain the large parts in the front. to save you time, energy and $, If partially into the braiding you are not getting what you requested, LEAVE. Don’t be like me and settle or compromise, b/c you don’t know how crappy the job will end up, and how much time and energy will be wasted. @ the end your too tired and head is too tender to have them redo it then. Epic fail.

We all have those bad hair days when we just want to run for cover under a hat or scarf but fret no more my brothers and sisters, Studio Braids is the place to run to. My Nubian sisters; Cee-Cee, Dema and Adama are definitely the solutions to all your hair care nightmares. These ladies can perform them all; corn rows, singles, tree braids, weaves(sew ins) and a kaleidoscope of other styles and famous fashion trends. It would be wise to call in advance to schedule an appointment for these ladies of the Ivory Coast are definitely busy for customers come from far and near to get the hook up. These ladies entertain you with comfortable and engaging conversation and marvelous movies from their homeland. Whenever I come in to get my crop braided, I look forward to watching Africa’s version of movies, oh what entertainment !!! I actually love these ladies. They are great at creating artwork in the hair department, I have been visiting their hair styling studio for several years and they have never disappointed me or any other customer as far as I know of. So take your hair care problems to Studio Braid and let them work their magic on your hair, you’ll be glad you did. This is a unisex business so you brothers can get in on your crop care too. When you call to make an appointment make sure you tell them Fran sent you. I promise you you won’t be disappointed. These ladies are as good as it gets in the hair styling business.
