S R: I was able to get a same day appointment for a sew in and Bezu did a great job!
I needed my hair done before an interview and was lucky to get a spot when I did. I was very calm, they played good music and I was able to study while she did my hair.
I would recommend!
Rosa Jou-Zhang: I had amazing shampoo, cut, and blowout from Julie!! I love her suggestion of more wispy layers and she made it work with my hair (when other stylists tell me it won’t work for my thin hair). I love the look!! Definitely recommend and will be back again!!
DyAsia Davenport: Ms. Angela was able to get me in last Thursday first thing in the morning. Her work was amazing and she was so sweet. She even worked with me to make sure my hair was finished on time for another appointment I had that same day. Her work is neat and her prices are fair for whatever type of hair you may have. I got boho knotless braids and I’d recommend anybody to go to her. I will definitely be back.
Kristen Lopez: It was my first time at salon ink and I had a haircut with Lakota. The salon was really cute and clean, and I love the haircut I got! Thank you so much for the great service! I’ll be back!

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.
