Service: Medium boho knotless Goddess(Braiding hair include
Staff: Gaye
I had a wonderful experience and couldn’t be happier with my hair! I went in thinking the appointment would take around 4 hours, but she was so profes...sional and efficient that it was done in just 2.5 hours — without feeling rushed at all. She went straight to work, knew exactly what she was doing, and the entire process was smooth and comfortable. Most importantly, my hair came out absolutely fabulous. The braids are neat, beautiful, and exactly what I wanted. I felt confident, cared for, and truly impressed by her skill and time management. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality braiding done right!

If you’re not already going to African Braids by Lima, this is your sign to start! I’ve been getting my hair done by Lima for over a year now, and eve...ry single time I leave, I’m blown away by the precision, neatness, and quality of their work. Lima is truly a sweetheart — always on time, super professional, and flexible with scheduling when needed. I actually moved about an hour away from San Francisco and still make the drive to her shop because it’s that worth it. My braids last a long time, and I get constant compliments on how great they look. Plus, she has Wi-Fi in the shop, so I can work or catch up on shows while getting my hair done. I recommend her to anyone and everyone who asks — especially if you’re thinking about getting goddess or boho braids. You will not be disappointed!

Staff: Gaye
I am writing to express my profound satisfaction with the recent hair service I received. The quality of the work was exceptional, and I was particula...rly impressed by the remarkable efficiency demonstrated during my appointment. For a style of this intricate nature, my previous experiences at other establishments have typically required a commitment of approximately eight hours. However, the stylist completed the work in less than four hours, which is truly outstanding and significantly exceeded my expectations regarding service speed. Furthermore, the level of communication provided, both in preparation for and throughout the appointment, was exemplary. This proactive and clear engagement ensured a seamless and highly pleasant experience from start to finish. The cost of the service proved to be an excellent value, especially considering the superior quality of the result and the unparalleled efficiency. The entire process was incredibly convenient, allowing me to be in and out in a remarkably swift manner, which I greatly appreciate. I’m coming back for sure . Book with zine’

Let me just say…once Lima does your hair, you’ll never want another braider. I have super thick 4C hair and every time she braids it only take 4-4.5 h...ours when it usually takes others 8+. She is very compassionate with me being tender headed. My braids last 3-4 months. Best braided in SF!
