I was searching for a new braider since the lady I usually went to recently had a baby and was out of commission. So settled on this place. I had checked the website, tiktok and saw they had good reviews here on google. After checking other braid shops out I decided to move forward with KP African shop. I called paid the deposit and went in the following day. I found they were 40 mins from my home and knowing braids usually take all day I elected to have them wash and blow dry me for extra $35. (Trust me it was nothing special so I suggest washing your own hair) Upon arrival I was seated fairly quickly. Then taken over to the bowl for the wash. They gathered the color hair of my choice and asked me again what size I wanted. I answered, small medium. She proceeded with the braids. After some time I assume was the owner that came over to check on the size. The lady showed me the size of the braid which I was fine with. She continues with my hair. With probably an hour remaining the owner is leaving and confirms the amount with the braider. Confirming I have already paid the $20.00 deposit. The braids were $210.00 and the wash and dry was $35.00. At this time we have reached the last row. I give the braider $200 and ask if I can go out to my car to drink some water. The braider looks at me if she was puzzled regarding the amount she received from me. I stated I'm just going to my car for water I gave you $200 I mean you want me to leave my keys. I go out to the car have my drink and turn to see the lady walking from the door watching me. I walk in in sort of shock really a little annoyed. But she apologized said that the other braider had someone walk out on her before and she was sorry. My logic was I just gave you the bulk of the money, $20 for the deposit already had been paid I'm going to run off on you for $35 and 5 or so braids remaining. I was wondering why I didn't have as many braids when I was getting small/ medium but I was really taken back from the money encounter. At completion I paid the remaining balance and left. Later I'm home and I go to put my braids up into pony tail I look at the back and find these huge parts. They are no where near uniformed with the front. Which was the small medium I believed I was receiving. Now I am only providing my experience. The girl from tiktok her braids were very pretty again the reason I selected this shop. However, to charge someone that amount to cut corners I don't think anyone has time for that. At the end of day I paid the amount and will just not come to this braid shop again.

So listen, KP braided my hair today for the first time…freestyle cornrows…God is so amazing because she did a PHENOMENAL job!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE it and I will be a repeat customer. She was on time and I appreciated how she showed me what my hair looked like when she first started braiding it and how she checked with me to make certain it wasn’t braided too tight. Friendly staff!!❤️🙏🏽

Best African braiding in Katy TX

Box braids

Box braids derive their name from the distinctive square-shaped sections of hair on the scalp. Originating from diverse communities across the Eastern African Nile Valley and extending to regions such as modern-day Namibia and South Africa, box braiding holds significant cultural significance. Unlike braids that closely follow the scalp, the versatility of box braids lies in their ability to be styled in a myriad of ways, reflecting the unique cultural norms and traditions of the individuals who wear them.

 

Cornrows

Cornrows stand as a ubiquitous and diverse hairstyle, transcending specific cultural boundaries. Originating as early as 3000 B.C., this style gained prominence among communities along the West coasts of the African continent and the Eastern Horn of Africa.

Depictions of notable warriors and kings adorned with cornrows in 19th-century Ethiopia underscore its historical significance.

What distinguishes cornrows is the close braiding to the scalp, achieved through a unique set of techniques involving an underhand motion followed by an upward one, resulting in distinctive raised rows along the head.

 

Fulani braids

While some braided styles, like the classic three-strand plait, lack specific cultural attribution, others possess distinct origins. Fulani braids, also referred to as feed-in braids, can be directly linked to the Fula people of the Sahel and West African region, according to researchers. Characterized by a single cornrow braided down the center of the head, complemented by additional braids towards the face and often a braid encircling the hairline, Fulani braids feature long strands cascading down the sides. Often adorned with beads or shells at the ends, this style embodies a unique cultural heritage and aesthetic tradition.

 

Senegalese twists

Senegalese twists are a distinctive braiding style crafted using straight braiding hair. Unlike traditional box braids, Senegalese twists are formed using just two strands instead of three. Known for their versatility and durability, these twists can endure anywhere from eight to 16 weeks with proper care. Maintenance involves essential products such as Scalp Oil to moisturize the scalp and roots, Braid Gel to lay down and protect edges, and Conditioner to maintain overall hair moisture. For optimal results, it’s recommended to create a conditioning spray by mixing leave-in conditioner with water, enhancing the longevity and luster of the twists.

 

Crochet braids

Crochet braids offers a versatile and comfortable alternative to conventional cornrows or box braids. This technique involves using a crochet hook to create a sturdy foundation for attaching hair extensions, making it a quicker and less painful option, particularly for individuals with sensitive scalps. Beyond its practical benefits, crochet braids offer a range of styling possibilities and serve as a protective measure against damage from heat styling, safeguarding the natural hair. With its ability to provide a natural and beautiful look while requiring minimal maintenance, crochet braiding emerges as an appealing choice for those seeking a protective hairstyle.

 

Passion twist

Passion twists have rapidly gained popularity over the past few years, emerging as a sought-after protective hairstyle. Renowned for their natural-looking texture and bohemian vibe, passion twists offer a versatile styling canvas. What sets passion twists apart is the use of Freetress water wave hair, which imparts a distinct curly texture and silky feel to the twists. This unique feature distinguishes passion twists from faux locks, providing a more organic appearance. Unlike the uniformity of Senegalese twists, passion twists exhibit a less structured aesthetic, often likened to a hybrid of Senegalese twists and goddess locs.

 

Knotless braids

Knotless braids live up to their name by offering a seamless appearance without the traditional knot at the base.

Unlike conventional braids, which typically begin with braiding hair to create the knot, knotless braids start directly with your own hair, resulting in a natural look as if the braids are growing from your scalp.

This technique prevents the formation of a visible knot and enhances the overall aesthetic of the hairstyle. When opting for knotless braids, your braider will skillfully start the braid with your natural hair, ensuring a sleek and flawless finish.

 

Goddess braids

Goddess braids effortlessly infuse a bohemian flair into traditional box braids while offering low-maintenance appeal. The incorporation of loose, flowing curls adds a touch of glamour to any look, especially when interspersed among box braids. Ideal for those seeking to elevate their protective style, goddess braids not only enhance aesthetic appeal but also provide versatility. Renowned for their durability, these braids typically last between four to eight weeks, offering a practical and low-maintenance option for hairstyling.

 

Boho Braids

Boho braids have revolutionized the traditional pick-and-drop braids, bringing a fresh perspective to the style.

A notable enhancement lies in the length of the base braids: whereas pick-and-drop braids typically measured around three inches with loose waves or curls at the ends, boho braids depart from this norm.

Unlike their predecessors, which aimed to conceal the braids at the crown of the head for a seamless look, boho braids prioritize showcasing the braids themselves. Incorporating loose curls throughout the braids at varying lengths creates a harmonious blend of braids and tendrils, imparting a distinct and effortlessly chic aesthetic.

 

Bohemian braids

Bohemian box braids offer a refreshing twist to the classic box braids, featuring undone curly ends that impart a fuller and more voluminous appearance. Unlike traditional box braids where the entire length is tightly braided, in bohemian box braids, only the first few inches are braided, leaving the remaining hair loose and curly. This protective hairstyle is particularly appealing to those who prefer lengthy braids, as it provides a lightweight and versatile option. With the freedom to style the curly ends in various ways, bohemian box braids allow for personalized creativity and expression.
