    Would love to keep Doris all to myself but she is too amazing to not tell the world about! She listens to what you want and makes it better than you could imagine.

    Me and daughter received the best service and experience especially since it was our first time getting our hair braided!. Doris and her sister were absolutely amazing! And great company! Definitely will be back for a lifetime to come. Communication and knowledge of hair and products were amazing. And my schedule changed last minute and she saw me same day.

    I had the best experience at D African Hair Braiding! I got small boho knotless braids, and they turned out absolutely gorgeous—so neat, lightweight, and flawless. The ladies were incredibly nice, professional, and super skilled at what they do. They made sure I was comfortable throughout the process, and their attention to detail is unmatched. If you’re looking for beautiful, long-lasting braids and top-tier customer service, this is the place to go! I’ll definitely be coming back and highly recommend them to anyone who wants their hair done right.Thank you- Rhoda Ortiz

    Doris has been braiding my hair for 3 years I started off with a pixie cut now my hair is down my back. Doris is very gentle with my hair and she listens to me because Im very picky about my hair. Great braider!

  • Review 9 (2024-07-28 - Rating: 5)

    Doris and her assistant are an amazing team. I am new to the area and my original braider I booked was not able to do my hair. Doris was able to fit me into her schedule she was able to do my color and my knotless braids. She pays attention to detail and I was not in the chair all day. I am tender headed and neither of them braid tight at all. (Doris or her assistant Peaches) The style is perfect ,I love my hair I will definitely be back.

  • Review 10 (2024-02-21 - Rating: 5)

    Doris is amazing! She stick to her appointments you never sitting there waiting. She is always on time. And she can do any style you bring to her and your hair style last for months. She is quick and dont waste your time once you get there. I love ❤️ all my styles She never disappoint I recommend her if you want an awesome hair braid style.

  • Review 17 (2023-03-31 - Rating: 5)

    Doris does a SUPERB a job braiding my hair. She has been doing my hair for almost a year. She pays close attention to detail in ensuring the style is done to the customer’s satisfaction. In other words, she is professional and precision is her walk of life.One of the key aspects of Doris hair braiding is the parts are accurate and braiding does not hurt your hair. This is importantly because you want the braids to look professionally as well as enjoy a good night sleep. In addition, the hair she uses does not smell like most of the hair you buy in stores.I would recommend Doris to anyone. She is simply the BEST hair braider! I am so blessed to have her doing my hair. I forgot to mention that my hair is also growing.Thanks, Doris I appreciate all you do daily for the customers!

    Doris is a professional braider, she always do great job with my hair highly recommend this is my amazing look 2 Breids and 6 breids.Saloon it’s nice clean just go❤️

  • Review 19 (2023-09-12 - Rating: 5)

    I just had my first appt with Doris. I received lemonade braids. Shes nice and funny. She did a great job and shes a fast braider. She does good work. She had another braider in the shop today to finish braiding the individuals. They are both willing to double up on your head, Doris and co just need a heads up so, if you need more than one braider, call when you book your appointment and ask Doris is she can accommodate.

  • Review 20 (2024-02-27 - Rating: 5)

    I have been going to Doris (Shop owner) for years. She is extremely professional and takes great pride in pleasing her customers. She is meticulous and detailed and upfront with her pricing. I highly recommend her services.

  • Review 21 (2023-02-12 - Rating: 5)

    Doris has been my hairstylist for a year now and will continue to be as long as Im alive. She braids my hair every 2 to 3 months. She is professional, friendly, always on time, attentive, and her NEW shop is clean and comfortable. Doris started just as my stylist but she is now my friend. She creates the styles I want, and suggest looks that will compliment my personality and style. If you are unhappy with your current stylist, make a change to D African Hair Braiding, you wont be disappointed 😉

  • Review 22 (2024-03-26 - Rating: 5)

    Doris is so pleasant to work with. She does an amazing job on my hair. I love that she doesnt braid my hair too tight.

  • Review 23 (2023-09-27 - Rating: 5)

    I always love my experience with getting my hair done by Doris, whether its braids or faux locs everything is always so pretty. She is very kind and the work is always neat. Highly recommend.

  • Review 24 (2023-05-17 - Rating: 5)

    Doris is amazing and she is so good at doing hair. she is very good at her craft and i only wish for the absolute best future for her! she never fails to deliver her best every time!

  • Review 25 (2023-07-03 - Rating: 4)

    I would highly recommend her for braiding 10/10!!However, my last visit lasted way longer than it should. She asked me to come 10am instead of 12pm (my original time that I booked). I didn’t leave the chair until 5:15pm. She served another client that came in late and finished in 4 hours ☹️. I was a little disappointed, because I was the first client to arrive to the shop.Again, she does amazing job at hair braiding and her shop is an actual salon, unlike going to some random person house. 10/10.However, be prepared to wait…

  • Review 26 (2023-07-08 - Rating: 5)

    Best hair washing! My cornrows are BEAUTIFUL! I decided not to get extensions and Doris did such a great job! Bonus it didn’t hurt😃. I scheduled a recurring appointment on her website! So convenient

  • Review 27 (2023-01-14 - Rating: 5)

    My sister told me about Doris 2 plus years ago, and I have been going every since. Doris is very passionate about her work, and when you leave her chair at her new location: 5830 9th ave N and 58th Street, you will be more than satisfy, and if you want your hair to grow, Doris is the one to see. I give her five stars in all area.

  • Review 28 (2025-04-16 - Rating: 5)

    Doris is my go to whenever I need a new protective hairstyle! She is very neat and gentle with my hair type, it’s very fine. I absolutely recommend Doris for your next hair style!
