We value your time. Every style is built around a 2-3 hour chair window; we assign the right number of stylists (often two or three working in tandem) to match the size, length, and complexity of your braids, so you’re never sitting longer than promised. Availability refreshes weekly. Final slot confirmation happens after your deposit and consultation.
