:I recently visited American Braids and Beauty for a crochet braids style, and I cant speak highly enough about my experience from the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm atmosphere.My stylist, Shayla, took the time to listen to what I wanted and offered her professional advice to help me choose the perfect style for my hair. She was knowledgeable about the latest trends and techniques, which made me feel confident in herThe salon itself is clean, modern, and beautifully decorated.I highly recommend American Braids and Beauty to anyone looking for a top-notch salon experience. I will definitely be returning for my future hair needs!JK -

Shala is amazing!!! I have fine naturally straight hair and she does the same styles I ask for without hesitation, even though it requires more skill to braid them with my hair texture.She’s so skilled at braiding. I go to her over and over again and she’s never disappointed me. I give her one photo of what I want my hair to look like and she gets it spot on every time.Good prices and good service. She’s reliable and has rescheduled me per my needs more than once with minimal coordination. She also has a second location in South Tampa and she’s always flexible to accommodate my preferences.Thank you Shala!! -

I am absolutely satisfied. Im new to Tampa and have been looking for a place to get my hair done and I stumbled upon this shop. Ms.Simone did my hair and she went above and beyond to ensure that she achieved the style I was aiming for. On top of that, it was very time efficient and very reasonable. The shop was clean and organized. I will definitely be back!!!! -

Shala is an amazing human. We had great convo while she did my braids and the salon was quiet so I also got some work done.Her work is meticulous and thorough. My braids look so good and I am officially and fully vacation ready. I’ll def be rebooking with her. Thank you 🩷 for bringing your amazing talent to the world. -

I have been getting my hair braided here since 2011. I have always had an awesome outcome and the cutest styles. My stylist, Shala, communicates well and listens to my concerns. I love that she helps me grow my hair by suggesting products and ways to take care of my hair. -

Hidden gem of West Tampa! After my daughters braider moved out of town we where in search of a new professional location that could deliver and boy did American braids & beauty deliver. From the first call they where very responsive and professional with booking. Then when we arrived they where very courteous, knowledgeable, and listened to what we asked. Stylist Thalia worked on my sons head with starter locs and Denise worked on my daughter with no knot braids. Both exceeded our request. Worth every penny ! We will absolutely be returning and recommend them to anyone serious about quality hair care. -

I love, love, love, love this place! My hair always looks fabulous! I used to have problems finding stylists that could braid using human hair. They would say that they could but in the end it was always disastrous...until I found Shala! My micros always look amazing ! Shala has also given me tips on my natural hair to get my edges to grow out and too bring my hair to a healthier natural state. I will never go anywhere else!!! -

The professionalism offered here along with the friendly atmosphere makes me select American Braids & Beauty every time. The prices are what you would expect from a shop but they do have discounts offered periodically so just ask. Also on your birthday you receive a discount. -
