Just passing on the information

I am in LOVE with my braids. Yama is the biggest sweetheart ever, not to mention extremely talented. There was a mix up with our appointment, I work until 1, and I thought our appointment was at 1, but it was actually at 9. She was extremely understanding and still did my hair at 1 that same day. Not only that, but I had her add lavender color to my hair and she blended it PERFECTLY. My braids are secure, beautiful, and I get compliments everyday. Yama is beyond wonderful!

Miriam did a wonderful a job on my hair. I am very pleased about the results and the price. She was punctual and more than accomadaring. My last braider was great, but not considerate of my time or money. I am very appreciative of her services, professionalism and kindness.

Wanted to update my previous review. The last time I went to Miriam she did a fantastic job, this time it was even better. Wish I could give 10 stars. I made a mistake with my hair buying, but Miriam was able to work magic. I get so many compliments on my hair. Can’t wait to make my next appointment.

I just finished getting my hair done and I love it! Miriam did a very good job and was very sweet.

I had my hair done this weekend and I love it!
The price was great and within the ranges of the other shops I’ve called. Everything was clean, comfortable and professional.
While getting my hair done I ran out of hair and we went together to the hair shop to buy more hair together. She wanted me to see what hair I would need to buy for next time as I’m from Boston and the old braid shop I went to always supplied the hair. Here I had to buy my own. I tried to find what I needed but the hair I bought was too soft.
I will definitely be back in a few weeks for a touch up and again in the future for further twists and braids. I highly recommend for anyone who wants to get twists.

Got my hair done yesterday and it came out very beautiful. She was really nice and still accommodated even though I was late. :(I got the senegalese twist and they are very neat. Definitely recommend to anyone looking around.

This was my first time getting Senegalese twist, and I was excited with the process! She works well with giving you the look you desire, And because I don’t drive, she even went out of her way to go by the hair for me. I was very pleased with my service and she took her time and take on an extra hour to make sure my hair was exactly how I wanted it. Very nice and sweet lady. I would recommend her to anyone.

Mariam did a fantastic job… I was amazed how quickly she finished my hair and the way she creatively blended my colors… She comes HIGHLY recommend!!!

I have natural blonde hair and wanted Senegalese twist braids, I had a friend try to do them first but it stay for more than 5 hours so I found her on Unilocal and called that morning and she was able to have me come over. She was surprised herself that my hair held. She’s very sweet and did and amazing job on «white» hair! I would recommend her to anyone. I’ve had plenty of compliments and love it myself

So fast and I’ve had these braids in the longest that I’ve ever kept braids. I live all the way in the Bay Area but I will probably go back to LA to have my braids done here again. 10 Stars!

Miriam and her sister Sophie are awesome. Was in desperate need to get my hair done and done right, she took me right away even though it was last minute and they did a splendid job. My tree braids are beautiful.
I’m in LA for a couple of days and I can’t believe I got what I’ve wanted for my hair. Thx so much girls, I really appreciate it.

I really don’t want to write a bad review for Miriam because she’s such a nice person and she gave me a huge discount (my head is ²⁄₃ shaved) but I probably won’t be going back base don my experience.
Looking at her pictures, she obviously knows what she’s doing but my hair was just not done up to my standards.
1. I got Senegalese and she started with knots and braids rather than invisible roots. starting with braids may last longer but they do so much more damage to your hair.
2. She braided my hair way too tight. At first, I thought it felt tight because I haven’t had braids in a while but when I got home and for the past 5 days I’ve had to take Advil just to do regular tasks. I’ve NEVER had to do that.
Further, my scalp started bleeding yesterday and now I have small scabs in the front of my hairline. (this is after using braid spray and moisturizing my scalp.)
3. As i said, my hair is mostly shaved and I always wear it to the right but for some reason she gave me a middle part so now I have to wait at least a week or 2 to comfortably move my hair to the right side of my head without ripping my hair out.
4. Lastly, if I have ²⁄₃ shaved then she should only be using ¹⁄₃ of the hair she normally uses, right? No. She used 4 packs!? She used too much hair and made the twists too long and heavy.. I asked for mid back and they were down to my WAIST. The extra length and hair is probably adding to the strain on my scalp.
Miriam is very professional and her prices are great so if you decide to go to her make sure you tell her when she braids too tight and if you’re getting Senegalese twists and you want invisible roots, ask for them! Had I done those things, this would be a very different review.

I finally found someone who does great quality Sengalese twist! I spent days searching for someone in Los Angeles and found Miriam. She was professional and stuck to my appointment time. I didn’t have to wait at all. The quality of her work is great and her prices are affordable! I am so pleased with my results and would recommend anyone looking for African braiding or twist styles to call her!

I love Miriam! My braids are beautiful! She is a very nice woman and her prices are great! If you’re looking for great braids at a great price & from a great person! You must see Miriam!

I got senegalese twists in my hair for the first time and I have never done braid extensions before. That said, the results are beautiful and I’ve already been stopped on the street by strangers complimenting my hair! My stylist knew it was my first time getting braids and she was extra careful with me.
Thank you!
