FAQs

Box braids are classic braids created using squared sections for a versatile, protective style. They help protect natural hair, are low-maintenance, and can be styled in various lengths and colors for a personalized look.
Knotless braids are created without knots at the root, resulting in a flatter, more natural look with less tension on the scalp. They provide a lightweight feel, reducing the risk of breakage while maintaining a beautiful protective style.
Yes, we offer feed-in braids, which gradually feed in extensions for a seamless, natural look without bulky sections. This method provides a flatter finish at the roots and reduces tension on your natural hair.
We offer starter locs, faux locs, traditional locs, interlocking, sisterlocks, freeform locs, instant locs, palm-rolled locs, and more. These services cater to clients at every stage of their loc journey, whether starting fresh or maintaining mature locs.
Passion twists combine the look of twists and braids, offering a soft, wavy, and lightweight style. They are created using curly hair extensions for a natural, bohemian appearance with movement and volume.
