Best Braids in New York, NY

Braids is an all-encompassing term for simply weaving strands of hair together. Braids can be made from existing hair only or can include extensions and accessories. Braids can be created in a variety of lengths, colors, styles, and levels of intricacy. Cornrows, ornate braided updos, feed-in braids, and half-braided hairstyles are just some of the options when choosing braids.

The cost of braids ranges from $65 to $500. Price estimates are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute an offer to purchase services at the estimates stated. Please contact your StyleSeat Professional for pricing details on your selected service.

Tipping 20 percent of the total cost for your braids appointment is the best rule of thumb to follow. Consider varying your tip based on the cleanliness of the braider’s working area, their friendliness, and your satisfaction with the results.
