Queen Maman - African Hair Braiding

Unisex Hair Salon
Welcome to the Queen Maman - African Hair Braiding where traditional braiding techniques meet modern fashion styles. For centuries, African hair braiding has been an important part of African culture, and today it has become a popular and fashionable trend worldwide. Brooklyn is known for its diverse and vibrant community, and African hair braiding salons can be found all over the borough, catering to the needs of women, men, and children of all ages and hair types.

African hair braiding involves the intricate weaving of hair into various styles such as cornrows, box braids, twists, and more. This technique not only creates beautiful hairstyles but also protects the hair from damage and breakage. The braids can be adorned with beads, cowrie shells, and other accessories, making them a unique and personalized expression of one's identity.

Here are some of the most popular African hair braiding styles:


Cornrows:
This is a classic style where hair is braided flat against the scalp in straight lines or intricate patterns.

Box braids:
These are individual braids that are sectioned off and braided with extensions to create a boxy shape.

Senegalese twists:
These are similar to box braids but are twisted instead of braided, giving them a more natural look.

Kinky twists:
These are also twisted like Senegalese twists but are done using a kinky or coarser hair texture.

Micro braids:
These are very thin braids that are tightly woven to create a delicate and intricate look.

Faux locs:
These are created using extensions to simulate the look of dreadlocks without the commitment.

Ghana braids:
These are large, chunky braids that are often styled in a zigzag pattern.

Fulani braids:
These are inspired by the Fulani tribe and feature braids that are adorned with beads or cowrie shells.

Havana twists:
These are chunky, rope-like twists that are done using a thicker hair texture.

Marley twists:
These are similar to Havana twists but are done using a kinky or coarser hair texture.

Crochet braids:
These are created by looping extensions through braids or cornrows, giving them a fuller and more voluminous look.

Goddess braids:
These are larger, more intricate braids that are often styled in an updo or crown-like shape.

These are just a few of the many African hair braiding styles available. Each style has its own unique look and requires different techniques and materials to create. When choosing a style, it's important to consider your hair type, personal style, and the level of maintenance required to keep the braids looking their best.
