WHAT HAPPENS HERE?
Braids, locs, weaves, natural hair, nonethnic hair---Maes can do it all. My go to is long knotless braids. Her salon stays clean and exudes warmth. A/C?...well...maybe...
WHAT KIND OF STAFF IS IT?
She hires highly qualified employees that understand braiding etc. is a craft. Her staff are professional and they get the job done in the most efficient time possible for the style you request.
SHOULD I WASH MY HAIR FIRST?
Because shes also a cosmetologist she is certified to do washing prior to braiding. However, that would be an additional fee. Rarely does someone have their hair washed before braiding AT the salon. But be respectful and wash your hair prior to getting your hair done. Okaaaay.
Yet, if youre getting locs retightening or natural hair braiding, washing may be considered typical. All stylists smile and speak. Most speak English.
Especially noted men love Maes work.

Giana Street: LaSandra is awesome!!!! I went to her to get my natural hair washed/blowed out/flat ironed and she did a great job. LaSandra made my hair look like it was permed. I am new to the natural world, so she gave me a lot of tips has to how I should take care of it. She was very friendly and professional. I will be returning! :)
Karen Miller: Always feel good after my hair apptointment. Sophy is the best. Been going to her for many years and she keeps me up on the new styles and highlights. Ck her out, youll be glad you did.
Misha: As a DJ spinning records at this wedding, I gotta give a shoutout to Mobile Beauty Team for their stellar work. The bride looked absolutely stunning - her makeup was on point, giving her that beautiful, natural glow that every bride dreams of. It was clear the team knew exactly how to enhance her features without going overboard.
The hair styling was equally impressive. From my vantage point behind the decks, I could see how the brides hairdo held up perfectly through all the dancing and celebrating. And let me tell you, this crowd knew how to party!
What really stood out was how the Mobile Beauty Team managed to keep the whole bridal party looking fresh throughout the night. Even after hours of grooving to my beats, everyone still looked picture-perfect.
If youre tying the knot in San Diego and want to look your best without the stress, these folks are definitely worth checking out. Theyve got the skills to make sure youre camera-ready and dance-floor fabulous!
Voice Yourself: I’ve been coming to Shanell and her ladies for the last five years. For a moment, I did go somewhere else and I was not as happy as I am being back with these ladies.
My hair color looks amazing and it lasted a very long time. The girls are very responsive and overall a great experience.
This last time I went. I had my hair done by Sachiko And she had great recommendations for my hair. I will definitely keep returning
Paola brewer: Ive been going to Gilbert for years. He is one of the best hair stylist Ive used plus he has a fun personality, and very funny. His new salon is beautiful and it represents him to the tee. I highly recommend him!
Danni j: Havana Twists.
You feel like royalty the moment you walk in. I was ecstatic to find someone who was professional and genuine. Thankfully she was able to fit me in for an emergency appointment. I advise making appointments in advance because her exceptional talent keeps her busy and in high demand. I have thick, coily, natural hair and typically warn beauticians it is not for the faint of heart. This did not phase her. She took her time gently washing and detangling my natural hair. My Havana twist were beautifully done.
J Kenner: I needed some assistance and after a Google search, I called Royal Creations Hair and Beauty Supply. The lady who answered the phone was kind and knowledgeable. After providing me with a couple references I called Mari. Mari scheduled to see me the same day I called her, even though it was New Year’s Eve. She was kind, helpful, and generous. I bought something at the store just because of her. It was a great experience from start to finish. Thanks Mari!
