Venus African Hair Braiding & Salon

One of the best places to get you hair done right! The owner takes her time and works with your hairstyle to fit you. I don’t rush to just pick any style. It’s also good to show them what type of style you’re looking for. Another thing I like is that the store has a variety of hair and hair products. Btw– tip well.

If I could give this place a 0 stars I would. They speak French there, so I guess they assume since it’s Iowa nobody else understands French. My mom is from the Ivory Coast so I understand French very well. But I speak very little. I get there and a girl starts braiding my hair. (I was getting a full lace installed in) instead of just doing her job she asked one other lady if I’m a girl or guy in French. Then she giggled she then went on to say «she smells weird that’s why I asked if she was a man» I was completly shocked! So unnecessary. I let her finish my hair and confronted her in French. I let her know I was in fact a women and when she is doing someone’s hair its rude to talk about them in a different language. Don’t come here if you want them to talk trash about you in french. Very unprofessional setting. Disappointed.
