Be sure to book all services required. If you would like us to undo your hair before redoing it please book this as an additional service, so that applicable time is allocated
A wash, condition and blowdry service is also available but must be pre-booked as an additional service. This service is usually £25 but reduced to £15 when booked with an additional one.
The braiding process can be difficult when oils or product is applied to your hair prior to your appointment, so we advise you do not apply any products to your hair before your service. We are happy to apply any preferred or personal remedies during the braiding process.
Please note there will be an additional charge from £10 for detangling knots or matted hair.
Please expect 4 hours minimum for this service as timing may vary depending on the length and volume of your natural hair. In some cases, this style may take longer or less than the time advised - (long story short, save the whole day).
