I made an appointment with Amber. The salon looks nice all the girls were busy getting hands on. Morgan keeps people laughing it's a nice atmosphere. It was my first time and the only dislike I had was that I felt my hair was not washed properly. I didn't mentioned anything to Amber because it was my first time and I wanted to see how they worked and if I liked it but that's just me. The hair style looked nice but didn't last long. My hair was washed and pincurled. I like the fact that they go by appointments so you won't have to sit there for hours waiting. I'll be going back though they do really

This is the BEST braiding salon in the city, hands down. From the ease of booking and selecting services, to the email reminders (which I'm always grateful for because I'm super forgetful) to the service, are all top tier. If you want a stylist that does amazing work, Braids fast and beautifully, definitely book Lashawna! She is truly the absolute best and so sweet. I sit in her chair and she gets right to work and always knows exactly what I want. I will be patronizing NOLA BRAIDER forever...well for as long as I can! Thank you Lashawna🙌🏽

Amber and her staff is awesome my 9 year old goes here monthly for her braids. Always professional and fast. I love the work they do. Amber does an amazing silk press and I like that they offer cma consult prior to doing your hair. My daughter hair has grown tremendously since going to NOLABraider.

My gosh, this is my first time reviewing a business. Let me start off by saying so far, the braids look great. If that’s all you’re looking for, go here! A lot of product is used to slick hair down so if your hair is not very resistant to build-up, that might be a problem.
What really disappointed me was the service. The stylist was certainly the least friendly I’ve ever encountered. (I won’t say her name because I honestly wish no harm against her personal success). She did not speak at all except to say to move my head like twice (or to other stylists). She actually rescheduled this

Google maps did an awesome job with the directions! It's a nice place to get your hair braided. The owner Amber was effective in giving feedback to ensure I got an appointment in!

Dwana was excellent and the styling was spot on for what I wanted. I will most definitely be returning and would recommend anyone with locs to see her.

Amber and her team are fantastic! I’ve been going there for almost five years since moving to New Orleans. They can do any style and are hands down the best braiders in town. 🙌🏽 Her daughter, Aliyah, was so great and super sweet with my young daughter when she did her hair as well! Definitely would recommend Nolabraider to anyone looking for braids or a natural hair style!

Recently I booked a appointment with Charlie and 1 hour prior to the appointment she notified me my appointment had been cancelled. She then notified me that she would make contact with the shop’s owner Amber to be serviced by someone else . As time went on no one reached out I had to contact Amber myself and ask if I can just have a refund in which she agreed due to me having to reach out to another stylist outside of NOLABRAIDER. As the day went on no refund had been made and when contacted again about it Charlie tried to reschedule for a night appointment. This shop has shown poor customer

Ummmm…PERFECT!!!! I came in from Wisconsin for them, they’re the best of the best period. They’re the only people in the world who I completely trust with my hair, including myself. They’re always elevating themselves and becoming better. Go here, it’s a life changer

This place is horrible service/attitudes it's not going to be recommended by me. Maybe if they were as respectful as they were talented at braiding then they would be bigger and more successful.

If you want your hair done right look for somewhere with more reviews and more clientele!

Very nice salon. I was happy to hear of a salon which specializes in natural hair care. I booked my appointment and got all the necessary things I needed for my hair. I received crochet locs done by Shaq and was very pleased with the results. You can also find Nolabraider on instagram for more information. I'll be back to revisit the salon in the near future.

I truly appreciate having a natural hair salon that is well located, provides friendly customer service, and ALWAYS leaves my daughter and I feeling beautiful and confident in our natural hair journey. Amber is always patient with my daughter and provides valuable feedback about the best products and hair care practices we should follow for best hair growth. The salon offers a fantastic and welcoming atmosphere. I will ALWAYS continue to utilize the natural hair services provided at NOLABRAIDER for my daughter and myself as well as recommending this salon HIGHLY. I'm glad to be a NOLABRAIDER
