Called at the last min to see if anyone could braid my daughter’s hair and they happily said come on over. When I got there, they said the credit card machine had just went down and unfortunately I did not have cash on me and so we were going to leave until Aracely volunteered to do it for no charge! So awesome of her to offer! She wouldn’t even let me Venmo her. Did an excellent braid for my daughter! Super sweet of her as she did not have to do that! 🙌🏼
