Tree Braids

Tree braids are a popular African-American hairstyle that applies extensions to the hair with small, tight braids. This lets you add length and volume to their current hairstyle.

Although the style can be done with most hair types, it works best with the thick, kinky nature of African American hair.

We use bulk hair braided directly into your own hair via an individual or cornrow braid.

The weave hair is braided down to hide away your own hair and the rest of the hair is left free.

Most of our clients like it because it allows more versatility than a fully cornrowed base.
