Questions

Before you walk in.

Do you take appointments?
Yes — book online for a guaranteed slot. We also take walk-ins on a first-come basis every day. If you're walking in, call (908) 590-3361 on your way over for a wait estimate.
How long does a knotless install take?
Plan for 4–7 hours depending on size and length. Smaller braids and waist-length installs sit at the longer end. Bring a charger, snacks, and headphones — many clients call it spa day.
What's included in the price?
Our specials include the install and the synthetic braiding hair. Boho specials include the curly add-on hair. If you want extra length, custom color blends, or a specific brand of hair, we'll quote on the spot before we start.
How should I prep my hair?
Come freshly washed, blown out, and detangled. If your hair isn't blow-dried, we may add a prep fee. Avoid heavy oils on the scalp the day of — they make parts harder to set.
Can you braid short or recently big-chopped hair?
Often yes — but stop in or send a clear photo on Instagram first so Mary can confirm there's enough length to grip. We'll quote based on what we see.
How do I make my braids last?
Tie down with a satin scarf nightly. Light scalp oil 2–3× per week. Avoid heavy edges product near the install. With care, knotless braids look fresh 6–8 weeks.
Do you do kids' hair?
Yes. For children we recommend simpler, lighter sizes and shorter lengths to keep tension low. Pricing is quoted in person based on length and density.
Cash, card, or both?
We take both. Tips appreciated and always go straight to the braider.
