So I’ve been growing my hair for 7 months and i knew i needed an experienced stylist to do my first set of braids. I seen one of Mimi’s viral videos w...here she stated she could braid hair ONE INCH or longer, I’m a walking testimony that this is in fact true. While the hair on the top of my head was 3 inches the sides closer to my sideburns was very short. With a lil bit of kinky real human hair extensions MIMI WAS ABLE TO GIVE ME THE EXACT LOOK I WAS LOOKING FOR. Super professional over 10 years of experience and the prices are unmatched! I drove 3 hours to visit her and I’ll do it every month! She has a warm bubbly welcoming energy to her and she gonna make you laugh during your session. 10/10 will be back again ! Show more

My experience was very good, it only took / hours even though I had a scoop of hair lol. Overall I enjoyed how fast and efficient she was with braidin...g and making small talk. My only dilemma was the blowdryer was frying my scalp lol Show more

Thank you for the thoughtful review Jeffrey. It’s good to know that your experience was good in general. However, you should know that you had requested a complicated design that was originally done on a full head. I had to fit in 10 precisely stitched braids on your half head to replicate the same style and design from the picture you had presented. This of course would take time, coupled with the fact that your hair, which was quite long and beautiful by the way, was extremely dry and brittle at the time and susceptible to falling out. I had to take extra care and patience to blow out, moisturize and prep it properly without jeopardizing the quality of the braids and to prevent you from losing more hair as I brushed/combed through. I explained to you, why we had to blow out from the roots, close to your scalp in order to get the waves out and allow for the stitches to lay nice and flat, however, I apologize if this process caused you great discomfort. I prioritize quality, clean and long lasting results above any thing else, and I always take my time to deliver these to my clients regardless of how long it takes to achieve. Again, thank you for your feedback.
