Hi I just got my hair done and I am very happy. Kawa was very nice and enjoyable. I will be coming back for future appointments

I was very pleased with the professionalism exhibited by the shop. I also appreciated the reminder email, which included the time, address, and amount owing. My stylist was punctual, arriving at the shop at 8AM and was ready for me upon my arrival. My stylist, Hawa, was courteous and offered me refreshments, including snacks and water, a gesture I found particularly considerate. The service is exceptional, and I intend to recommend the shop and return within a few months. Thank you, Kadi and Hawa. I'll come back and add my pictures later. read more

Kadi and Titi were AWESOME. Punctual, professional with a smile on their faces. Thank you read more

Aicha, Laurel and Titi are amazing! For almost two years I've consistently gone to Braids by Kadi, and I have been satisfied with most of the styles. I did try crotchet, but braids were loose and the style didn't last long. Otherwise I haven't seen a bad style ever from this team! read more

There has been a steep decline in customer service since the the shop has expanded. The braiders here are very rude and unfriendly. The website said that it would take 4 hours to complete my senegalese twist it took them 8 hours. I am not upset it took longer but they need just be truthful and set realistic expectations. When I explained some of the concerns that I had with how the braider was doing my hair. The manager called me "petty" (obviously she didn't know I knew French). And to make matters worse she didn't address my concerns or questions at all. I was ignored. My hair came out nice so I'm leaving 2 stars but I would not recommend this shop anymore and I more then likely won't be returning. read more

I had an amazing experience at Braids by Kadi! I booked boho knotless braids and got a confirmation right away and a reminder text and email two days before the appointment time. Hawa was so nice and so skilled! She worked all day and gave me the goddess hair of my dreams! Thank you Hawa! xoxoxoxo read more

First timer. I went to Braids by Kadi and had an appt Astou. Absolutely amazing. The shop has many braiders. All of them do great work. They all are fast too. Work is neat and beautiful. I will definitely be booking with them again. I got boho braids. We took one 5 minute break and that was because my butt was hurting. Booking is super easy. Just go on the website and pay your deposit. While I was there I did see one person go in and book and appt and pay for the deposit right then and there. So it looks like that was an option. I told my mama about them so it looks like she going be making an appointment to. I will definitely be back. Only con is there is no outdoor signage so it was a little difficult to find the shop. So you have to look for the number of the suite. read more

My hair is beautiful! Awesome braiders. As always I'm happy with my boho braids. I get lots of compliments.

ive been here before and it was just as good as the first time I like how my hair turned out really but the time and customer service, it said my hair would take about 6 hours on the website i was there for 10 hours and hair was still unfinished I had to go to work. that isnt rlly there fault what ever but I can tell my hair wasnt top priority considering I had one of the most time consuming hairstyles, one of the employees had to be told to start helping with my hair while she was just sitting in front my unfinished hair..... and i can tell she didn't want to she had such a nasty attitude she thought wasn't noticed, I didn't even want her helping after I saw how she didnt even know how to do boho, i paid for more than one pack in my head why are you not gonna put them all in the back but ok??? like she was so condescending too. I shouldnt have even paid full price for a hairstyle that wasnt even done really disappointed for me not standing up for myself more. read more

The salon needs to focus on timeliness, fair booking, and accountability. Too many times people are left high and dry due to someone not showing or someone being double booked. It is not fair to customers. read more

Kadi has done it again. She has a girl looking 10'years younger. Those hands yes those hands are made for hairstyles not. Just braids. Quality work. True time quote. Open to suggestions and will advise on what's best. Kudos read more

I have come to get my hair braided here several times over the years. I've had minor issues that I've overlooked because I'm a creature of habit. I've reached my limit after I've just paid $500 and have to take my hair down within a day of getting it done.I received knot less small singles and for some reason she decided to braid the smallest hairs all around the perimeter of my head. I left without even really looking closely at the final result. Got home and attempted to pull my braids back to notice that there isn't enough hair in the braids which will twist and cause tension around the front. I have bumps in the back of my head! The owner told me 2 days ago that she would return my call because they were booked up. If a client calls you and tells you that their braids are too tight and all you can say is we are booked up and I'll call you back to never call back at all. That's very unprofessional. I took them Braids out and I will never be returning there ever again! No one has $500 to waste! I have been wearing braids for over 30 years so I am far from uneducated about my own hair! They are playing with people money calling some feed-in singles knot less! read more

I have been coming to Kadi for over 5 years. The staff there is wonderful. I really do live having Astou do my braids, she's super sweet and efficient. My braids last for a good amount of time. The atmosphere is always welcoming. read more

Hair braiding takes us who get it done back to our childhoods when our mothers grandmothers and aunts did for free. It's cultural and spiritual. Now we spend hours in the chair and pay the people who braid our hair a lot of hard earned money. Most of the time, we are satisfied. I usually am. I am mostly satisfied with my most recent experience at Braids By Kadi. This is my fourth trip. The end result is sexy and looks so much better than the alternative! Will I go back? More likely than not. Will choose the same braider? Hell no. Even though she is talented and works quickly. She hates her job and perhaps people too. She is so mean, rude, and heavy handed. My head is still throbbing and forget about sleeping throughout the night. The woman who sat before I did was so polite. She thanked, paid, and said goodbye to everyone. The braider, Flora, didn't even bother to turn towards her customer much less say goodbye. When another braider said to Flora that the customer said goodbye, Flora turned towards that braider and said she didn't care and rolled her eyes at the door the customer walked out of just moments before. What they didn't know is that I understood most of what they were saying in their native tongue. When my fateful turn came, I made sure to thank and pay, but said no goodbyes. I'm very sensitive. I don't like to exchange and interact with people in an intimate way when both parties are not enjoying and agreeing. When someone's being forced to do something they don't want to do and suffering is usually the result. Maybe by the weekend I will be able to sleep the night through without taking pain medications. My advice. Go, but don't choose Flora as your braider. She will hurt you and be mean to you for no good reason. read more

I've gone to braids by Kadi at minimum 6 times a year for the last 4 years, whether for myself of my daughters. I've continued to go to her salon because all of the braiders were friendly, professional, and took pride in their work. However since she moved to Somersville Rd. location the braiders have all changed. The last three times I've gone I haven't even seen Kadi...which is fine, as long as the experience remained consistent with Kadi's brand...but it hasn't. On one occurrence the braider left halfway done with my hair, after getting in an argument with another braider. I had to wait an hour before another braider could continue. They didn't finish until 9pm, and my appointment started in the late morning. Still I extended grace and refuse to go back to that braider because she is still there. Most recently, I took my son last week and myself yesterday, and the results are definitely not worth the price and time it takes to get the style done. I sat from 10:30am-6:15pm. I got knotless boho braids. The workmanship and attention to detail is lacking. You can see that the braiders forgot 4-5 strands of my hair, luckily you can't tell with this style but the same thing happened the last time I got box braids--which was ridiculously obvious. I had to wrap my hair around the base of the braid to hide it. Nearly every braid had loose ends of the added human hair sticking out...this is less than 24 hours after completing the style. I realize that after a week or so some stranglers may exist but less than 24 hours is crazy. On top of that, 2 large pieces of the added human hair came out, when I ran my hands through the braids to detangle. Again, it has been less than 24 hours. The middle part is also crooked. These are all things that when she parted, I wasn't even facing the mirror so I have no idea what's going on until the braider is done. The part is too obvious and shows a lack of pride in her work. By the time she finished, I was going to be late to pick up my kids from day care so now I'm stuck with a crooked part for a month. $400+ for a hairstyle should not look like this. read more

I technically did not want to give 1 star. Took my son to get his locs touched up a young lady named laurel. We were told she knew how to do the touch ups. When i picked him up and saw his hair, I was outraged! First she did not wash his hair, second it looked like she just used Vaseline and twisted in her hand. They were NOT NEAT AT ALL. She dud a horrible job and I wouldn't suggest anyone going to her ATall. I would suggest she do her research and check out others work on how to do a loc touch up because she has no idea. read more

Braids By Kadi - Vacationing in Cancun, Mexico - Hair Stylists Near Me - Antioch, California

I had a great experience here overall. I wasn't sure in the beginning because when I walked in, it took several minutes to be greeted as a paying customer. I was eventually greeted by the owner, Kadi who was very nice, she let me know who my Braider was but she was running late. Although she was late maybe by 10 mins, when she had me sit in that chair she got right to business on my head. I absolutely loved, ASTOU she did a wonderful job on my hair and was very fast and a sweet person. I also liked the loc gel made by Kadi so I bought that and a bonnet that was reasonably priced! The vibe was kool they had music playing that I actually liked, it's spacious and I love that it's a lot of natural light and not closed up. read more

I've been getting my hair braided by Kadi and the wonderful women she works with since 2020, and they never disappoint! From my first time ever getting goddess singles to faux locs, tree braids, crochet twists, they've done it all with exceptional quality and positive energy every time. This review is long overdue, but I had to share my most recent experience getting goddess ghana braids because they came out better than I expected, and my expectations were high! I was able to wear them at multiple events where there was a lot of humidity and sweating and they're still holding up nicely, plus I've never gotten so many compliments on a hairstyle! Thank you so much to Ndeye for being an angel in general but also for working around my mohawk. As someone with severe eczema, it's important for me to work with stylists who can put me at ease so I don't feel judged, and the vibe at Kadi's is always so comforting, folks are always laughing and smiling. Y'all know I'll be back! read more
