Braids Stockholm

Box braids in four sizes, cornrows in two, four or six rows, baby cornrows, ponytail braids, crochet braids and braids for men. We braid children too.

Size decides. Small and very small box braids often take half a day or more, a few rows of cornrows considerably less. We tell you the time when we book you in.

From a few weeks up to three months depending on size. Take them out too early rather than too late – long regrowth makes the braids pull under their own weight.

What is included is stated with each service. If you are unsure, ask us when we book you in, so you know what to bring.

Yes, we have separate services for children – box braids and cornrows.

Come with freshly washed, dry and detangled hair washed with shampoo only. Conditioner and oils make the hair slippery and weaken the grip during braiding.

Focus on the scalp. Mix a mild shampoo with water in an applicator bottle, apply along the partings, massage with your fingertips and rinse without rubbing the braids.

Your own hair is braided in and escapes daily brushing, heat tools and friction against collars. The condition is that the braids are not too tight and that the scalp is looked after.

No. A braid should feel firm, but it should not pull. If it stretches at the temples it is too tight – tell us straight away and we will redo a few rows. Hair braided too tightly wears on the hairline.

At both our salons, in Stockholm and Uppsala. You choose the salon when you add the service to your basket.
