Services

What we do, and how long it takes

Grouped by the kind of style. Book one on its own, or start with a consultation and let us plan it with you.

Braids

Parted, sectioned and braided to your size and length.

  • Knotless braids

    5–8 hr

    Braids that start from your own hair and add the extension in as they go, so the root sits flat. Small, medium or large parts.

    Deposit to book
    Book: Knotless braids
  • Box braids

    4–7 hr

    Square parts, braided with extension hair from the root. A classic that holds its shape, in any length you choose.

  • Feed-in cornrows

    2–4 hr

    Straight-back or patterned cornrows that start small and gain length as they run back. Plan on a shorter day than a full head of braids.

    Book: Feed-in cornrows
  • Fulani braids

    3–5 hr

    Cornrows to the front, a center part, braids behind and beads or curls if you want them. Bring a photo of the pattern.

    Consultation first
    Book: Fulani braids

Small parts take longer and last longer. The booking page shows each size.

Twists

Twisted from your own hair or with added length.

  • Passion twists

    4–6 hr

    Soft, wavy twists from a crochet-in hair. Light on the head and loose at the ends.

  • Senegalese twists

    4–6 hr

    Smooth two-strand twists with added hair, from the root to the ends. Small or medium.

  • Two-strand twists

    2–3 hr

    Twists on your own natural hair, with no extension. A shorter day, and a good first protective style.

    Book: Two-strand twists
  • Marley twists

    3–5 hr

    Chunky twists in a textured hair that grips and stays. Medium or large parts.

Crochet

Hair is looped onto cornrows or braided parts with a needle, so the install is quick.

  • Crochet braids

    2–4 hr

    Cornrows laid flat, then extension hair looped in. Pick straight, wavy or curly.

    Book: Crochet braids
  • Crochet twists

    2–4 hr

    Pre-twisted hair looped onto a cornrow base. Lighter than a full twist install.

    Book: Crochet twists
  • Crochet faux locs

    4–6 hr

    Locs of wrapped hair looped onto a braided base. Short or long, with a take-down visit when you're ready.

Take-down and extras

    We cut the extension hair above your own and unbraid, section by section. Book it with a new style or on its own.
