I wish I could remember the name, but there was one on Livernois just south of 7mile on the westside of the street. Its across the street from a pet supply store. If I remember the name, I'll come back and post it.

I think African Euphoria is down there too...
That's where I was looking to get my hair braided for my wedding but I can't seem to get any natural feedback on it...

Do you know? And what can you tell me about Happy to be Nappy?

I would not recommend those shady African hair braiding salons in the 7 mile area. Too funny style for me....switching prices, inconsistent pricing, attitudes, too tight hair pulling..



And what can you tell me about Happy to be Nappy?

I&#39;ve been in there several times - for a consultation (after I was dissed @ the African shop next door) and to buy natural hair products/clothing. The prices are up there, so I did not get my hair done there, but the vibe is nice. One of the stylists has loc extenions and they look good. From what I&#39;ve seen, they do all kinds of styles.

Hope my little review of HTBN was worth it.

Hey ladies!

Just to put this out there, I&#39;m in the Detroit area and I&#39;m in the process of converting my living room into a little spot to do natural hair. I know how to do 2 strands, knots, locs, flat twists, corn rows (not the REAL fancy stuff, but I do aiight), TWA cutting and shaping. I still haven&#39;t mastered comb coils but I&#39;m working on it!

My prices you can expect to be reasonable.

I&#39;ll let you know when I&#39;m open for business! :afro:

Can anyone tell me about "Happy to be Nappy"? Is it an ok salon (i.e. clean, nice staff, etc)? Also, how expensive are their prices?

Any information would be appreciated!!

I just remembered! I went in there sometime last year to get a price quote on two strand twists. No extenstions, just 10" of my hair. I was quoted $110. I don&#39;t remember if thats totally based on length, or if the lady factored thickness into the price as well. The people seemed nice, but I didn&#39;t get the twists though.

yes! make sure you do that rockin. i wouldnt suggest the african braiding shops either as a source for natural hair care. i actually wouldnt call them that. especially if ur sesitive about the environment and the hands you want up in yo head. but thats jus mi.

peace :afro:
