Common Questions
What age is appropriate for braids?
There is no strict age. It depends on the child's ability to sit still. We can do shorter styles for younger children.
Can you add beads?
Yes. Beads can be added to most styles. Just let us know when you book.
What if my child cannot sit still?
We take breaks as needed. For very young children, we recommend simpler, faster styles.
