    Okay im going to try to make this short. My daughter schedule me an appointment for a young lady at 2239 w 95th street (I don't even know her name). Needless to say she faked out. I was getting ready for my vacation on Thursday. I googled African braiding shop near me (as I was almost in tears and it was after 7pm). I took my boho braids down. After calling 2 shops I called the third the lady answered and said come on. I love my hair braids and sew in I am happy. Please support this business
