Testimonials
Braids by Afthan gave me the most beautiful knotless braids I've ever had! They lasted over 2 months with proper care and looked amazing the whole time.
Afthan is so gentle with my daughter's hair! We drive an hour to get her braids done here because no one else does them as neatly or lasts as long.
I got goddess braids for my wedding and they were absolutely stunning! The team worked with me to create the perfect look and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process.
As someone with fine hair, I appreciate how gentle they are while still creating durable styles. My cornrows lasted 6 weeks with no breakage!
