    I have been looking for a good braid shop since moving to the Tampa area. I have finally found one. I called hoping to get an appointment before Christmas and they got me in the same day! I got there at 4:30 pm and got right in the chair. I was there till almost 11pm. They all worked to get it done and my braids look 🔥🔥you would think I was the first customer. Thank you for taking your time and doing a great job on a last minute appointment. Definitely, give them a try.

    Great location. The ladies were very accommodating. The service I received was removal of very small braids

  • Review 4 (2024-01-12 - Rating: 5)

    Im from out of town, and decided to come here on 1/12/24 because of the good reviews that I saw. I made my appointment two days prior. I asked for Senegal twists. I am tender headed and a bit nervous when getting hair braided, but they did not disappoint. The shop is clean, and the ladies are friendly. They did my hair the way that I asked. I requested not to have the twists cleaned with the scissors, and they had no problem with that. Some places I have been to have a fit when I ask them not to clean them. They look great even without it. I would definitely come back again if I am ever back in town.

    Booked an appointment one day prior to. She was patient with me ( prego) and even asked if I needed to take breaks. My hair came out so wonderful and my husband loves it! Will be back.

  • Review 8 (2022-03-06 - Rating: 5)

    The shop was clean and service was fast, efficient and great! I reached out via Google and I gain a fast response scheduling my appt. I got there at 9am and she was ready. It took about 5hrs to complete my hair. She was gentle without me saying a thing, Im tender headed. All in all Im happy with the services and Id definitely return and refer the shop out! The first 3 are when I got them done. The last 3 are about 1.5 months later. They still look great and no pulling my edges out.

We walked in to check the place out before selecting the online scheduling. We were able to schedule same day braids! My wife couldn’t have been more happy with the end results she hasn’t stopped smiling for the last 4 hours! She will be back. Shout out to the owner!!!
