All styles are available for adults and children. Walk-ins are welcome every day — call ahead to confirm same-day availability for longer styles.
Box Braids
One of our most popular protective styles. We offer classic, knotless, jumbo, and medium sizes. Knotless braids reduce tension on the scalp and are a great option for everyday wear. Whether you want a simple look or something more detailed, our stylists will work with you to get it right.
Cornrows
Classic straight-back cornrows, curved designs, and tribal braiding styles — a low-maintenance protective style that works for all ages. We also offer lemonade braids, side braids, and boho braids for clients looking for something different.
Twists
We offer Senegalese twists, passion twists, and mini twists. Twists are a great low-manipulation option with good longevity and a clean, polished finish that works for any occasion.
Locs
Our loctician services include loc installations and loc extensions for clients who are starting their loc journey or looking to add length. Our stylists will walk you through the process and help you choose the right size and starting method for your hair.
Kids Styles
We welcome kids of all ages. Our stylists are patient and experienced working with children. We offer kids cornrows, kids braids, and other age-appropriate protective styles.

Do you accept walk-ins?
Yes, walk-ins are welcome every day of the week. Same-day appointments are often available. Call (317) 496-8229 ahead to check availability if you’re planning a longer style.
Do I need to bring my own braiding hair?
We carry braiding hair at the salon so you don’t need to bring your own. If you have a specific brand or color preference, feel free to bring it — or call ahead to confirm we have it in stock.
How long does a braiding appointment take?
It depends on the style:
- Cornrows: 1-2 hours
- Box braids and knotless braids: 3-6 hours depending on size and length
- Senegalese and passion twists: 3-5 hours
- Locs and sew-ins: varies — call ahead for an estimate
We recommend calling ahead so we can give you a more accurate estimate for your specific style.
Should I come with clean or dirty hair?
Come with clean, freshly washed, and fully dried hair. This helps the braids last longer and keeps your scalp healthy throughout the style.
