Braids and Natural Hair Care

Apparently there is the perception that hair braiding is separate to that of natural hair care like dread locks etc. A good braider is not necessarily good at doing dread locs but in many instances it is not the case. When our company first started a few years ago, we had a shampoo bowl and we developed a strong base of dread locs customers and after moving to another locations we lost the use of a shampoo bowl which resulted in the reduction of our dread locs base; the point is that proper natural hair care requires shampoo and other clean procedures that are not often common in a braiding gallery. At Braids Inc, we once again have shampoo facilities and we are welcoming back all of our Happy To be Nappy Sisters and Brothers for Dread Locs and other natural hair care.

Many Braiders are excellent and starting and maintaining Dread Locs, as well as, styling Locs. Braids falls into natural hair styling since chemicals are not used to create the style, and many salons that started off as natural hair care centers have integrated braids and twists because for those who are interested in transitioning from perms in many instances some extensions are required for the transistion.
