I got smedium waist length knotless boho braids and they did not disappoint! The ladies are so nice and welcoming and try to accommodate you with whatever you need. Also, I loved having two people work on my hair at the same time. My hair is long and they did not charge for length or anything like that. I paid $300 with a $50 tip because I liked them and will be returning. :)...more

This is hands down the best hair braider I’ve ever encountered. Nikki is incredibly kind, sweet, and welcoming, and her braiding studio is absolutely adorable…cute, cozy, and comfortable. She pays close attention to detail and truly makes an effort to deliver exactly what you ask for. I left my appointment with zero complaints and complete satisfaction. I can’t wait to schedule my next appointment, which I’ll be doing very soon. She is worth every single penny, and I have no doubt I’ll be returning many times. If you want your hair done perfectly and by a true professional, Nikki at Braiding Hair Max is the one to contact….she’s Platinum status for sure.❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰...more

This shop is truly a hidden gem. The customer service is amazing and all of the braiders are extremely friendly. You can tell the braiders love what they do. They were able to mix 3 different colors for the desired shade of honey blonde that I wanted. It is a $30 up charge though for color mixes. I paid $350 and had to bring my own boho hair. The braids are super neat, and the prices are affordable compared to other braid shops....more

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Experience!

I had an appointment with another salon, but they were completely unprofessional and tried to reschedule me last minute, leaving me stressed and scrambling to find someone else. I reached out to Nicky early in the morning, and she responded immediately, letting me know she could take me the same day. From that moment on, I knew I was in good hands!

When I arrived, her shop was clean, welcoming, and professional. Not long after I got there, her daughter arrived, and the two of them got straight to work—no breaks, no distractions, just pure dedication. In just about five hours, my box braids were done, and they were absolutely flawless!

Nicky’s professionalism, skill, and reliability have made me a loyal customer for life. If you need a braider who truly cares about her clients and delivers top-tier results, look no further. I highly recommend her!...more

Kia_MissKia

January 2, 2025

Made a last minute appointment on Friday to get my hair braided on Sunday and they were very accommodating! I got medium knotless that were thigh length so my appointment did take the ENITRE day from 8am to 550pm, but my braids looked amazing! This was my first time getting knotless so im not used to how the part size comparednto braid size was but my girls reassured me thats how it was supposed to look. Personally i wish the braids were thickers and you didnt see as much of my scalf but its just a personal preference and nothing the shop did wrong. My braids and parting were very neat amd identical in size. I specifically asked for a side part and not a middle part and she was able to do that for me as well. They were very friendly and able to make my vision come to life. I didn't want boho knotless due to the high maintenance of them but I still wanted the wavy look. So they were able to make the braids itself wavy without adding the hair pieces. Will definitely come back...more

Butterfly Beautiful Nicole

October 1, 2024

So my hair was very short . I was charged an extra $30.00 which was fair because of the time and the extra engery it would take just to grip my hair . I think the braiders were more nervous than me to braid my hair . The back of my hair was shorter because I had an under cut so two braids did fall out while I was there but I knew that and was surprised she even attempted to grip it. My hair came out amazing . It did hurt but it was very very short . None of my braids have fallen out besides the two that came out at the shop . I prayed over the braiders and their skill set (lol). Everything worked out. They were very professional , welcoming and friendly. They all did a wonderful job and I will be coming back. I drove from DC and it was worth it....more

Braiding Salon

September 11, 2024

At first I have to admit I was worried because it was my first time with Nicole. But by the end I absolutely fell in love with my hair and although we couldn’t do the first style i wanted because my natural hair was too long she worked with me and changing decisions to make sure i left with hair i was in love with. The price was a bit steep for me i’m used to NYC braiders which charge lower on average. But for Maryland prices she was reasonable. would come again!...more

Cierra Noel

July 15, 2024

One thing about getting braids is knowing that you must have patience. Especially if you are choosing a particular style. Nicki and her team made sure to execute my hair (small box braids) in the way that both of us wanted it to look. The hair came out neat, light, and of course BEAUTIFUL! They were very accommodating with my schedule and fitting me in theirs. I discovered them on Instagram and haven't looked back since. Their work is very impressive. I did a big chop and they were able to work with my short 4C hair....more

Judion Fawa

October 7, 2021

I’ll just say, be VERY specific in what style you want. I showed them a picture of what I wanted, but there was a miscommunication about the size of the braids and they did them MUCH smaller. I didn't realize it was different until they were a good way in with the braiding, and I would have had them stop and restart but I had an engagement later that evening and did not want to be late.

I will say, the style they did turned out very nice, and it is quality braiding. Also the shop itself is quite small, about the size of a large closet. Very cramped. But again, it’s quality braids, just be specific....more
