    I’m so happy with my stitch corn roll braids.Amy did a phenomenal job on my hair. I received many compliments at work. She was so warm and kind with her amazing customer service. Not to mention on arrival you feel like you’re in good hands. The place was lovely and inviting with soothing music while you are being pampered.This salon is at a great convenient location and very much recommended. Thank you Amy!See you soon

    I drove a 1hour and 30mins to the salon. It was well worth the drive. She gave a great conversation was very funny. She excepts everyone and every race with an open heart. She did my hair amazing even did extensions for me cause my hair still a little to short and it all looks amazing. This was my first time doing anything like this with my hair. She made a customer for life. Thank you Amy.

    Very kind, respectful. Always on time. Shop is clean and Ms. Amy does beautiful work. She also encourages you to speak up about your hair. She asks questions and I appreciate that. Ive never left dissatisfied. Been a client for the past couple of years.

    She is an AMAZING WOMAN very professional and fast, best hair salon to got to for any needs, she did my locs very nice as I’m starting my journey with them. She is very good at multi-tasking as I book my appointment and there was a client she wasn’t finish but she got me in the seat very quick extra star there. Happy customer ;)

    Great experience! It was challenging finding someone to braid my hair that was professional and seemed to care about my hair and what was best for me. After calling and then stopping by, Amy scheduled my appointment the very next day for small box braids because my hair is very short. When I arrived for my appointment at 9 AM, they were on time, quick and took care to make sure my hair was not too tight and my edges were not damaged. Definitely coming back!

  • Review 6 (2024-02-10 - Rating: 5)

    Wonderful twist and most loving person you will meet. Great person to talk to and works hard at her craft.

  • Review 8 (2023-11-03 - Rating: 5)

    Amy is great at what she does. She did my hair braids for the first time and I loved it. Lots of compliments from everyone around me. I also appreciated that she took my appointment on short notice as a new customer. Keep up the excellent work Amy!

    I have been to Amys shop twice to get my hair done for vacation. She is very professional and organized. I couldnt believe how quickly she got my hair done! She runs very much on time. I am very pleased will be back soon! Highly recommended

  • Review 11 (2023-11-17 - Rating: 5)

    A big factor when I was looking for someone to do my hair was fullness in their pictures, and I was not disappointed. I got kinky twists done and am absolutely in love. Theres so much volume and the braids are so neat. Amy herself is quick and professional. Absolutely do recommend.

  • Review 12 (2023-05-01 - Rating: 5)

    Amy was very down to earth, extremely professional, & fast. Her hands are gentle on your scalp and she genuinely cares about your hair. This was my first time but I will be back again and again. It was easy to find her shop, her shop is so, clean and cozy. I highly recommend her. Thank you Amy, I’m so glad I found you!!! 😊

  • Review 13 (2024-01-06 - Rating: 5)

    After booking, Amy reached to confirm the style. She was very communicative and flexible and sent me pictures to decide on the final look. She provided braiding hair and didnt have a 20 step checklist before booking. She is fast braider and got my hair done in the amount of time listed when booking. Great salon experience.

  • Review 14 (2025-02-28 - Rating: 5)

    Amazing service and great experience. Nice person very good to talk to. Make you feel comfortable

  • Review 15 (2022-08-27 - Rating: 5)

    Three words: excellent, fast service! Amy came through for me in a pinch and fit me in last minute. Within 3 hours I was on my way with a cute feed-in style. Its a few weeks later and Im back for another round, this time for medium box braids. Im one hour into the service and a third of my hair is already done! I wont be going anywhere else. Lastly, her shop has ample parking and everything is clean and organized. Aces all around!

  • Review 16 (2022-05-28 - Rating: 5)

    Amy did a Halo braid for me and I received so many compliments. I was in love as soon as I saw the mirror. The atmosphere is relaxing, very calm, and welcoming! I had fun with her, the other customer, and other worker (Kay...I think her name was). I am already looking to book my next appointment. So glad I found a hair salon who sees you RIGHT AWAY! Keep in mind I did make an appointment ahead of time.Thanks Amy!

  • Review 17 (2023-07-19 - Rating: 5)

    Highly recommend Amy, I went to her for the first time and she did cornrows for me. Her work is very clean and crisp and she was very nice. The salon is very neat and tidy. I will be definitely be returning to get my hair done by her again in the future.

  • Review 18 (2022-05-23 - Rating: 5)

    Enjoyed my time @ Amy’s African Braids Salon. The shop was very CLEAN, QUAINT, & INVITING! Both Amy & Kay were very personable & professional…the longer I was in the chair, the more comfortable I became because the conversation was flowing!! Amy did my box braids & did an amazing job…I absolutely love my braids! I look forward to going back & utilizing her other services: taking my braids down, washing my hair, blow drying it, & braiding it all over again. I think I found the perfect braid salon for me ❤️!!

  • Review 19 (2024-07-13 - Rating: 5)

    Very clean establishment and reasonable prices. I would recommend anyone who wants to get their hair done the right way to go. One of the best in Orlando hands down. U’ll thank me later

  • Review 20 (2024-12-02 - Rating: 5)

    Ive been coming here for Mens braids for a few years and they always do a good job.

  • Review 21 (2024-09-17 - Rating: 4)

    I always wait a couple days in order to do an honest and fair review, so here we goI like the final product, but when I book my appointment it was with the owner and for my surprise another girl jumped in (not a big deal) I never fight over prices, is your salon but u had to be more professional and let me know someone was going to jump in, this second girl pulled my hair really bad and was kind of slow, answered the phone like there wasn’t any sense of urgency and that’s when the owner make the mistake, this isn’t a $3 service and I think fair that if costumers pick up a braider the service is provided as we requested for, they’re both nice girls but I would have preferred that instead of braiding one of your kids hair you would had finished with me first, besides that everything went just fine

  • Review 22 (2022-03-04 - Rating: 5)

    I am new to the area and It was my first time going to Amys and I must say this will be the only place I get my hair done. Very professional and they take pride in the work that they do. KK and Kay made sure I was comfortable and ask if I wanted something to drink. I love my hair and they way they work together is amazing. We had great conversation and laughs its just a great atmosphere. Please support the business and trust me you will not be disappointed with their service. Lisa

  • Review 23 (2022-06-21 - Rating: 5)

    Amy is amazing! She’s done my moms and sisters Senegalese Twists and Braids. Her shop is very cute, clean, and professional. My mom and sisters say they will definitely return. Thank you Amy for your amazing services!

  • Review 24 (2022-09-15 - Rating: 5)

    I got my hair braided here and I am so happy that I did. The sizing is consistent, the parts are small and even, and the braids are neat. My braider was still braiding another client’s hair when I arrived, and when I saw that client’s hair upon completion, I knew that my hair was going to look amazing. I love my hair and I have gotten a ton of compliments. I will definitely be back. Thanks to Amy’s sister/aunt for getting me right. I appreciate ya!

    I’ve been in the process of growing my hair back and Amy was great suggesting styles that work with the length that I have while my hair grows. The salon is so cute and clean and everyone is punctual. Started right on time and had the other ladies assist on my hair. I got a full head of small braids and I was out in 2 hours. Will def be back.

  • Review 31 (2021-12-24 - Rating: 5)

    Amy creates a great ambience by ensuring you are comfortable. Her braids are neat, not too tight, and she is quick. I had some issues with finding the shop as I had just moved to Orlando but she was accommodating and understanding. She enjoys what she does and her vibe brings great energy. I have found my braider in Orlando!!!

  • Review 32 (2022-08-25 - Rating: 5)
