I had such a wonderful experience getting my boho braids done! Sheila and Isha are truly amazing at what they do. They were professional, kind, and so attentive throughout the entire process. You can tell they really care about their clients and take pride in their work—my braids came out absolutely beautiful and I’m in love with them!
I was originally booked with Mariama, and even though my previous stylist ghosted me last minute, she was incredibly kind and accommodating in helping me get in. The whole team made what could have been a stressful situation feel easy and welcoming.
Such a sweet group of ladies and such great energy. I’ll definitely be coming back!...more

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lemonade Braids.

How long do Lemonade Braids typically last before needing maintenance?

With proper care, Lemonade Braids usually last six to eight weeks. Regular maintenance—gentle scalp cleansing, light moisturizing, and night protection—extends longevity. Schedule a touch-up or removal when noticeable loosening, tension, or significant new growth appears to protect your natural hair.

Will Lemonade Braids damage my natural hair over time if cared for?

When installed and maintained correctly, Lemonade Braids are a protective style that minimizes manipulation and promotes growth. Avoid excessively tight braiding, heavy extensions, or neglecting scalp care. Our braiders prioritize balanced tension and offer aftercare tips to keep hair healthy.

How much time should I book for Lemonade Braids service?

Appointment time varies by braid size, length, and added extensions — typically two to six hours. Smaller, more intricate braids take longer. We’ll provide an accurate time estimate during consultation so you can plan your visit comfortably.

Can I add extensions or accessories to Lemonade Braids during my appointment?

Yes — we offer various extension types, colors, and fashionable accessories like beads, cuffs, or rings. Extensions add length and volume while accessories personalize the look. Discuss your preferences during booking so we can prepare materials and achieve your desired result.

What aftercare is recommended for Lemonade Braids to maintain them?

Keep scalp clean with diluted shampoo or gentle cleanser, moisturize edges and braids with leave-in or oil, and sleep with a satin scarf or bonnet. Avoid heavy products and prolonged tension; schedule touch-ups for new growth and to prevent breakage.

Can I wash my hair with Lemonade Braids in place?

Yes — you can wash braids gently. Use a diluted sulfate-free shampoo, focus on the scalp, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely to prevent mildew. Pat dry with a towel and air-dry or low-heat blow-dry; avoid rough scrubbing to maintain braid integrity.
