I got box braids and while the braids were done quickly and as described everything else was not good. The shop is dirty and a child was running around screaming, throwing temper tantrums, and bothering clients the entire time. The stylists ignore you and speak in French between themselves, loudly, over you. And they don't listen to the specifics of what you ask. I asked for a specific size and they did a couple as I asked, showed me and I said that was what I wanted then they proceed to NOT make them that way. They also braided way too tight and when I said so they told me it was just that my scalp was "soft" and I should take some pain killers. No, you just shouldn't braid clients hair so tight it raises the skin!
