The shop made a mistake and did not own up to it. Very disappointed. Unable to further recommend location.

Exception service!!!



I have been a client of African Hair Braiding for over a year now and I am extremely impressed with the consistent and professional services I have received during each visit. The full sew-in and natural hair styles I have worn are always top quality and prices are very reasonable!! I have tried multiple hairdressers around the DMV area but NONE compare to African Hair Braiding!! If you're looking for great, efficient and professional services, you must visit this salon!

I am not pleased with the quality of the hair used on my braids, or the follow up experience I had after I wasted my $200. I was a concerned customer and expressed my discomfort after getting my braids for back to school. Yet the owner, Emma, had no sympathy for the discomfort or the financial strain to get the style, since I am a college student and do not have money to waste on a pricey style. The braids itched to the point I started to bleed, and I was breaking out do to the cheap quality of the hair constantly poking and rubbing on my ears, neck and shoulders. I've gotten the style done before here and never had a problem with them until this past visit last week, and the owner said that it was basically my problem and she couldn't and was not willing to do anything about it. She can be a sweet lady, but at the end of the day she is still putting money in the bank whether or not you are a satisfied customer. Its a smile in your face while someone is reaching in your wallet.

I am not the only person that encountered this experience with irritation from the hair. My friend had gotten her hair done, and has had them many more times than me. This time she got hers done 3 days before mine and she said that the quality of the braid hair seemed different and she was itching just as much as me. I am in the process of removing the hair, I got my hair done last Sunday, I couldn't last a full 2 weeks. I would not recommend this place if you want to waste $200.

Professional, Attentive, and Friendly. I just got my micro braids done today! Love them! Emma listened to my needs and made sure I was happy with my braids. I finally found the shop that meets my needs.

Great Style, good on time too!

I usually care for and style my own hair, but needed something different. This salon delivered a really great style, and I was right in the chair as soon as I got there. I was a bit wary however if the stylist informing me of a different price than what I was quoted on the phone. I would love to see more uniform prices in braid shops in general. But for the price I paid, the quality of work was excellent. I would try them again for special occasions.

I've been going to African Hair Braiding Salon for 14 years and I have never had one complaint. The salon owner Emma makes everyone feel special and accommodates with people's schedules. Every experience is even better than the one before. All the stylist are friendly and welcoming. The salon is very professional and I would recommend it to anyone. People always stop and ask me where I get my hair done and I proudly say African Hair Braiding. I would suggest for everyone to get their hair done there.

If youre in the fredericksburg...

If youre in the fredericksburgh area and looking for a hair stylist, I highly reccommend African Hair Braiding Salon. Dont let the name fool ya. They do all kinds of styles to include weaves, relaxers, braids cuts, etc. The warmth of the salon immediately conveys a positive impression and the stylist are always composed and professional. I feel like I'm with family when I'm at the salon. African Hair Braiding Salon's customer service is second to none. I am always greeted with a warm hello and friendly smiles. I have never walked away unsatisfied with my hairstyle. In fact, Ms. Emma has exceded my expectations for more than 6 years now.

Most Professional

Emma conducts the most professionally courteous black owned business I have had the opportunity to be associated with. I would recommend her services to anyone that wants an excellent braid, or weave style.
