Jessica J did an amazing job with my granddaughter's boho braids. We love them. Will definitely come back.

I come here regularly to get my braids done! Ive probably been here more than 8 times! I usually do walk in since its only two braids and I usually get helped right away. They always snatch me up really good and it always ends up beautiful and tight the way I love it! I have filipino hair but they never really have problems braiding it read more

This place is extremely overpriced and dishonest about pricing. The price was changed once I arrived, and the 10% discount advertised on their website was not honored. My braids were poorly done and far from neat. On top of that, the staff was rude, unprofessional, and dismissive. This was one of the worst experiences I've had at a hair shop. I do not recommend this business to anyone--you will be wasting your money. read more

Nani! Wasted my time and gas! Unprofessional and inconsiderate. Booked days in advance which was an inconvenience for her so I moved my plans around arrived to the shop twice for appointments SHE gave ME. Waited for hours.

This review is very different from the one i wrote over 3 yrs ago. Disappointing and Frustrating Experience I had a 10-hour appointment at this location that ended in total disappointment. Boni Teresa was unprofessional, lazy, and rude. My braids were uneven, cut wrong, and she would try parting my hair while it was still in a ponytail repeatedly . She arrived late, tried to charge extra, and asked to stop braiding my hair to serve another customer -- disrespectful and unacceptable. Communication was impossible even with a translator. I will never return and expect a refund or compensation for this nightmare of an experience. read more

Drove all the way from Hesperia for a 8am appt. The shop was called. Spoke to someone at 8:01am about no one being present at the shop. Told that they would follow up with the stylist. I never revived a return phone call. I made several attempts to reach someone again before leaving at 8:15am. All of my calls were forwarded to voicemail. I finally received a text message at 8:55am stating that the stylist thought that my appointment was at 9am and asked if I would return. Of course I declined and requested a refund of my deposit. Still in disbelief that this was my experience. Beyond unprofessional. read more

This place is very courteous and professional. Great ownership. And they are very customer oriented.

Got braided at the end of May for a trip. My scalp was inflamed and I developed a cluster of bumps on the back of my neck just 7 days with the cornrows in. I was accommodated last minute which was nice, but them hands is too heavy for my scalp. I rarely get braids but when I have before, I've been able to keep them in at least a month. Never have I ever developed bumps on my neck and had an inflamed scalp. I lost a lot of hair ok my neckline just from looking up, down, left, and right (this is no joke). My hair type is maybe 3b, but I don't think any hair type deserves their neck pulled up to their damn forehead and their forehead pulled back to their neck. She also cut the fly always with scissors, I assumed she knew what she was doing but later I realized that my own flyaways may have been cut too. My natural hair looks different for sure, I have split ends up to my scalp. Just glad I'm not bald but I will be if I go back to this place though. They have different braiders who might do a better job. I forgot the name of my braider. But I hope she reads this and realizes that she should keep the health of hair in mind when braiding and consider that not all curls and kinks have the same strength when pulled. The braids did look super neat and beautiful, I just wish she focused more on braiding than giving me a facelift. read more

Do NOT go here. If I could leave negative stars I would. I booked with a deposit 3 weeks in advance. They asked me to come 30 minutes later the day of. I come later, and have to wait an hour and a half before they start on me. I said, "I thought my booking held my spot," and they responded with "first come first serve." EVEN THOUGH THEY TOLD ME TO COME LATER. Cockroaches all over the bathroom and back room. Left with a style I didn't ask for $300 down. Warning for the black girls, DO NOT GO HERE. read more

Do not come here whenever i request there is always a misunderstanding with the owner and the price is not worth what they should be charging there customers 200 and up for every service which i everything should be included wash, rinse,take down of hair they want to charge more absolutely ridiculous on top of that they do not have clean towels which i find unsanitary they put a paper towel around my neck when i told them i had they barely wanted to rinse my hair told it would cost additional if they did on of the take of my own cornrow which took a very long time ended staying there from 10:30 AM intil almost 3pm for just a basic protective lace front updo and the original girl that was supposed to did not seem like she wanted to do my hair i even told her i have my boyfriend would send over the money following week she said no they need the money now because its extra work im like I would have would my boyfriend bring the money next week Monday she is like no they need the money so she let the other girl wash and condition and braid down my hair finally she did but it was like she had an attitude and jealous spirit the vibe is horrible very rude and they have an autistic boy who runs all over the place slamming doors, talking to himself, running all over the place, bare foot not clean like why is he not in school or day program I have never been to such un professional stylist who do not apologize to there clients and discipline there child like seriously they need do better with there establishment if they want clients then its very hot and muggy in there did not ask if i needed the fan on me i had to literally tell her to turn on the fan on not a blessing at all beware they dot even offer water for the prices they charge they should be making customers feel good about themselves instead we feel horrible read more

I had only had 8 cornrows with extensions done here. Sad to say, they barely lasted 1 week before they started to unravel. When installed properly, I have worn this style for 6 weeks straight, with no problem. This entire hairstyle was ruined in less than 2 weeks. The brand of hair I was told to buy was a low-end brand that did more damage than good. My hair had to have a deep conditioning after I took the braids out and only after 1 week ! Although, the Braider was polite, the overall work was garbage. I paid way too much and I will NOT be going back, because "YOU ONLY HAVE 1 TIME TO MESS MY HAIR UP." read more

Everyone that worked there were not welcoming. After confirming my appointment and hair length; "no problem". I get there they said my hair is too short and it wouldn't come out nice. I just had my hair braided a month ago. I ask led if she can add a little hair. I was told, "are you sure..? Most men don't wear extensions. Meanwhile three people have their fingers in my hair and not have the courtesy to speak English when you're speaking about me. There was no "blessing" from this company... The fact that I previously informed them I am in a wheelchair and did not want to be inconvenienced. Especially coming in so early. This sounds discriminatory... read more

Very unprofessional. Please be careful doing business with this shop. Was quoted a lower price, but price went up $50 during arrival.

I haven't used their services but there's an account on here that left a review about how bad the company performed however she's clearly just upset. How can she get hair care services based on african american culture yet she's calling a random person the N word??? Please use their services and decide from there if the company is great or not. She clearly just don't like us. With that being said SUPPORT THESE PEOPLE !! read more

Visited: 8/15/2020 Appointment time: 6pm I made my appointment with Fabi and was a bit caught off guard to find out (when I called her to inquire of parking) that she left the shop for the day - when I was under the impression she would be braiding my hair. The communication regarding this could have been better. Fabi assured me that any of the other braiders would do an equally good job and not to worry. Fabi informed me that Coco was told to take care of me. So I found parking the next block over and walked up. Coco was finishing up doing another client when I walked in. So a lady name Janet prepped my hair. What I will say about Janet is that she could be a bit more gentler - my hair is naturally soft and curly - Janet wanted to blow dry my hair but instead of starting at the ends and working her way up she went straight to the roots - this is a No No! And is a sure way to pull a persons hair out. I had to tell Janet, "You're pulling my hair." Janet adjusted how she treated my hair w/o issue - which I did appreciate. Coco completed her client's hair that was already there and asked me to move to her chair - Janet accompanied me over to Coco's chair. Both of them began braiding my hair. I was surprised- I've never experienced (2) people braiding my hair at once but I must say... it worked out well... together as a team they worked and completed my hair and I was out a little after 9pm. - duration: A little over 3 hours (you can't beat that) Thank you Coco AKA Famous Lady AKA Lover of Love ;) Thank you Janet for providing assistance to Coco. Thank you Fabi for not steering me wrong and keeping your word. The ladies did a phenomenal job and I have gotten so many compliments on my medium sized braids! AND I WILL be returning! Thank you my African sisters many blessings to you all! read more

Passed this place months ago and went in to inquire since I needed a hairdresser closer to me. They were very welcoming and the place was very clean. Wound up going back for crochets. I went in 15 minutes before my appointment and my braided was ready for me. Unfortunately she had to take down my cornrows because the last time I did so, I cut my hair so she did so quickly and washed it. My braider whose name I learned was Jeneba was a soft braider and very nice-even let me change the tv channel. I was in and out in 3 hours (including the take down) and I was impressed. Quiet and probably the cleanest hair salon I've been to so I recommend Went back twice since and got Coco. Amazing braider and quick. I was in and out in 2 hours for cornrows read more

I had an appointment scheduled for 10:00 am and arrived a few minutes early. I sat as instructed, until I was called. The owner Fabiola advised me that it would b a few minutes, and that one if the stylist was on her way. I watched as others came in and turned away even though they had appointments for 10:00 also. Around 10:40 Fabiola told me that I would need return because she was braiding another clients hair. She said it would take approximately 2 hours or so. I cannot lie and say that I was not more than dissatisfied with the overbooking with no concern for my time. I was a returning customer however because of today's outcome, I will not recommend this shop. Being greedy and overbooking is not only unprofessional, but it shows a lack of planning and total disregard for the paying customer. Totally unsatisfied with how the owner handles business. read more

I am very disappointed and quite upset with the professionalism of this place. If you are looking for a new braiding shop do 'NOT' go here. Read the full encounter of my appalling experience below. I just moved to SoCal from NorCal and, in my many years of getting my hair braided, 'every-month' 16-years, I have never had an issue with any shop like this one. Funny enough, I found this shop using Yelp. So it began; I called this shop 2 weeks prior to my scheduled appointment so that I could make sure that they had a braider who could do the style (I even sent in photos and explained, in detail of what I wanted). Someone contacted me back, through text, where we discussed an agreed upon a price and time/date to do my hair. Two weeks later I arrived at my appointment 45-min early and I did wait patiently. I was in the chair on time and the lady did asked me what I was getting done to my hair. I explained to her what I wanted and length, and knew from multiple previous experiences that I was going to spend at least 7-hours in the chair getting my hair done. She then asked me how much I was told that this will cost. I responded the with the agreed upon price and she scuffed and said something under her breath. Well, sh*^, I was appalled and told her that I could show her proof in text. She agreed and I sat in her chair as she started pulling the hair out of the packets and setting up. She started doing my hair and I told her I did not like the length by like a 1/2-inch. Which she made a comment that she would need more hair and I told her that's why I bought waaaaayyyy more then enough pack, four of which she hadn't opened yet so that should not be an issue. She then said to me, very bluntly, that she wasn't getting paid enough to do that. I was taken back by the second time she spoke like this to me... or under her breath, but decided to concede. After she did the bottom row with twist, I then told her we had a space issue because prior to starting my hair I implicitly told her how I wanted the spacing so that my scalp wouldn't show and that I need them staggered (even showed her pictures, again). After-which, said she couldn't do what I asked and that I should go somewhere else. Unfortunately she wasn't willing compromise or anything. She just said NOPE! I said ok. She packed up my hair, and I left. The professionalism absolutely wasn't there, because 'obviously 'this was not the lady I talked/text on the phone who agreed to the overall cost and work. Which means ... ... surprise... they clearly have a lack communication on their prices, 100%. And I felt like once the lady found out the $300 price (not including the hair), she was obliviously unaware of, she wanted to quit before it even began. Text evidence with the shops phone number is attached. read more

I arrived at my appointment about 15 minutes early. I haven't had a sew-in in years and decided to switch up my hairstyle. Being new to the area, I found Blessings Hair Salon, which offers full sew-ins. A week before the appointment, I asked the hair stylist if they had any beauty supply recommendations so I could bring my own hair. She proceeded to say, "we have hair at the shop. What color are you looking for?" I replied candidly, "black, and wet & wavy, if possible"-she confirmed the availability; maybe I should have been more specific? But I digress. I'm thinking, awesome-this saves me so much time since I'm coming straight after work, and I have a flight to catch for my sister's surprise birthday party in Houston the next day (therefore, I'm on a time crunch). I arrived via uber extremely excited, but I was immediately disappointed. There were a few shaggy cheap wigs, braiding hair (of course), and "sample" tracks in one dark brown color on display. The hairstylist, possibly the owner? Because there weren't any greetings, just someone sitting on the couch while I'm searching the corners of the shop for hair. I'm puzzled; she tells me to look around the other side for additional hair options...only more braiding hair! I started asking, "is this it? I texted a week before to make sure you had black weaving hair and/or wet & wavy weaving hair"-she shrugs and remains sitting. I look at all the hair options again just in case I see another option. Nope! It's now 2pm (my appointment time), and I'm getting anxious. I had to initiate every conversation and ask repeatedly before she went to "check" in the back for more hair. Of course not. Now I'm looking dumbfounded while she remained on the couch, just chilling smh. I decided to research beauty supply stores and other hair salons within a short distance since I didn't drive. I found a few, but by the time I made the roundtrip, I would've wasted a lot of time. I just decided to head home. This is the first time I have encountered this issue in the past 15 years of professional hair styling. AND I took my box braids out a little earlier than needed. Now I'm scrambling to find a hair stylist in Houston. I'll give one star because the braiding styles look decent, but extremely unprofessional! read more

I went in to get my hair crocheted, and the person who was doing my hair, did not have the professional experience to be doing my hair. There were other ladies in there who knew that she was not experienced enough to do my hair however, they still allowed her to do my hair, and it did not turn out the way I expected it to turn out .My problem is is that it was a 200+ dollar hairstyle and I feel like if there were other ladies in there who knew how to execute the style they should've been the one to do it. unfortunately, I will not go back to this place anymore based on the fact that I felt like it was intentional for my hair to not be done correctly. We as a race need to start working together to make sure that we are not in competition with one another. My hair was burning for over three days and this was a protective style. read more

I highly recommend this business! These girls are so nice! I've been here while my gf got her braids done. It was her first time.

Love the work done to my hair! I got tiny triangle box braids for $200. Was in and out in 5 hrs, which is good Only reason this review doesn't get 5 stars is because we are in the middle of a pandemic and only 1 braider, the owner- Fabiola, had on a mask. She needs to endure her other workers to wear a mask... They did not require a mask to enter. My braider did not have on a mask, and neither did some other patrons.... They did however, keep the door open which allowed for a great air flow into the shop. But all in all, happy with the final product! 4/5. read more

Horrific experience. Yes I had short hair, 5 inches all around. She was kind enough to see me short notice. I desperately needed my hair braided for a baby shower. This one was extra special because i was going to meet the extended family of my SIL for the first time. She said I had really, really short hair which I've never heard because other braiders worked just fine with my hair. I brought the non flaking product I wanted her to use and she opted not to, I don't do hair so I didn't argue, plus I needed to get outa ASAP. This woman began taking heaps of get to braid my hair to which she kept telling me it would hold the braids for "a long time." She had to rebrand my hair 4 times because they looked bad. Yes I should have have left but I was banking on it holding for the one day I needed it. It didn't. I went to bed and woke up for the shower with flaking that looked like I had a health problem. I ended up going to this baby shower with a stupid silk wrap on my head. It make my confidence drop from a 10 to a -4. I looked not so good in the pictures and those are forever. I wish I could go back to her and let her know of the damage she's done but the embarrassment has already occurred and the pics have been taken. She was nice enough but unskilled and has a lot to learn. I'm hurt indefinitely. read more
