  I went there on 6 / 30 / 17 to get a mohawk style weave. She quoted me a price of $80 and then when I got in the chair, she then called me $100. She quickly changed her tune when I got up and grab my bag to leave. I showed her kinda what I wanted based on a book that she has. The only difference was, I wanted 4-5 thick braids on both sides of my head, and I didn't want her tcontrol my edges at all. I also explain to her how thick I wanted the middle Mohawk to be. Firstly, she's sold 10 10 cornrow braids versus the four I want it on the sides of my head She sewed up only one side and that was it. I then had to fuss with her and say that is not a mohawk. The other side has to be sewn up as well. She reluctantly sewed up the other side, but overall I just was not happy. It wasn't shaped well. I usually go to Lady B or Flokay, but I wanted to try someone new . She was recommended to me ÷- her rating was a 3.9. I felt like I was being punished for cheating on lady b and Flokay, plus it was hot. I didn't tip her, nor will I be back. I gotta use a dozen hairpins to achieve the look that I'm supposed to have. I don't think that she couldn't do my hair right, I just think that she wanted to charge me a full $100 to do it right, and I was not going to pay that. There's another braiding salon about 5 doors down from her that was going to charge me $80 as well.

  I went to Fofana to get short box braids. Everything went well, except I didn't like the burning of the braids. I made sure I respectfully expressed how I felt. Fofana herself, insisted that I sit down so they can fix it immediately. She made sure that I left a satisfied customer. I have been going there for years and Wouldn't recommend any other braiding shop.
