I live in Bk this place is in Bx. This place is at the end of the 2 line, literally right off the train. The spot is bigger than it looks and they have braiding stations all over the place. It was easy to make an appointment over text. I sent a pic of what I wanted and a price was sent. The best part was that they are quick and professional. Once they started they did not stop and all the braids were very neat. They also considered of my weak edges. Half my head is shaved so I was out of there quick-quick! Overall I was very pleased with the whole experience and I will be back.

What I got

I've been going to this shop for years but they have truly changed for the worst. The styles are extremely overpriced, they rush doing your hair and were extremely rough with my head for no reason and they DO NOT follow reference pictures! 2 times in a row they have not done what I've asked for after saying they could. When you work hard for your money it's hurts to feel like it went down the drain. After years of being a loyal costumer, I will not be returning. Please find somewhere else.

I've been going here for years !! Visited today as part of their promo to be lied to and told at the end " it's only if you purchase hair from us!" Which wasn't stated in the caption ! Total dishonesty . I'll never visit here again

Knotless box braids
Claudia B.

Christmas Eve, I came to Mimis salon to get my hair braided. I am growing my hair back and had been going to a few different shops over the last several months.. A week ago I was driving around and stumbled onto this salon. I never entered the salon but saw that all the braiders had on smocks. I thought wow, what a Professional and efficient establishment . On Tuesday evening, I took my previous braids out, washed and conditioned my hair. This morning after my early appt with client, I went to the shop. I arrived about 10:15am, parking is a challenge but it's so worth it. Because my hair is short and my sides are just growing back because I shaved the sides over the summer. I chose knotless box braids. This is my go to spot. Even once I start my Loc journey, Braid Experts can take care of me. I was going to another shop by Fordham Rd, but I feel this shop is by far the most experienced braid salon I have ever patronized. Mimi, thank you for your great service and patience.

My teen daughter had a great experience. She loves her hair and said the stylists were really kind. My daughter got bohemian twists.

I came across Shi at Shi is Beauty Studios and have been going to her ever since! Her hair care and styling skills are impeccable, and I have been satisfied ever since. She did an awesome job restoring my heat damaged and broken off hair. My hair has been thriving since she's been treating and styling my hair. I couldn't be more satisfied so I'm passing on this information for anyone who wants a similar experience. It also feels good to support both a woman of color and local business in the area. If you're in the Bronx, Westchester County, Parkchester, Clasons Point, Morris Park, Castle Hill and neighboring areas, please book an appointment for an awesome hair care experience.

I had such a great experience at this salon on Friday 12/5. Firstly, i booked 2 months ago in early…read moreOctober with Roxan for a updo and asked about makeup. She recommended Kglam. I heard about both of them from my current hair stylist who said Roxan is the best for updo and anyone she hires for makeup is great. She did not lie. I paid my deposits for both of them and showed up at 11am sharp for my appt. I got my hair washed and i was out in the dryer with rollers while i waited for roxan. When my hair was dried, i got my makeup done and Roxan styled another client. After my makeup was done she styled my hair. She was honest about what would work and not work for my hair as my hair is very long but fine. And she added hair and things to make it look fuller. I left feeling beautiful and my son even called me a princess! It's now Sunday night and my hair is still intact, i don't want to undo it because i love it and have been sleeping with a bonnet and it looks exactly the same ! The makeup didn't budge at all until i washed it off. I will def be back for all future events. I loved the work and how convenient it was to get my hair and makeup done at the same location!

I can't believe I have never left a review. I have been coming to Roxanne at Tobis salon for 10+…read moreyears. I even moved out of state and STILL make my way back because she is truly one of a kind. If you are looking for a stylist that is fast, professional and talented please give her a try! She's the best out there. P.S I've trusted her with major photo shoots that celebrate the milestones in my life. I genuinely recommend her!
