Highly recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful, long-lasting braids! Show more

Knotless

I asked for small, knotless and was given medium regular box braids. The first braid (which I reviewed and is the correct size) is significantly small...er than the others. Price was also more expensive than advertised. Braids are neat and the service was quick—probably bc it was the wrong size. Show more
