Barstow, California
Braiding for Barstow clients
About forty minutes up Fort Irwin Road, and worth the drive for a braider who does African and Brazilian styles properly. Book the style and the time before you set off.
Barstow clients make up a good share of the book, and the reason is usually specialism rather than distance. Knotless braids, feed-in cornrows, passion twists and Fulani braids are not things every salon does well, and a style that is installed too tight or parted carelessly is something you live with for weeks.
The drive is about forty minutes each way, so the appointment is planned around it. You book a specific style at a specific time rather than turning up to a queue, and longer installs are scheduled early enough in the day to finish comfortably.
Because you are travelling, the deposit does a second job: it fixes the slot before you leave Barstow. Nobody drives forty minutes to be told the time went to someone else.
If you are bringing hair, the shop stocks pre-stretched braiding hair and passion twist hair that can be added to the booking, so you are not hunting for the right pack on the way out of town.

Questions from Barstow clients
How long is the drive from Barstow?
Around forty minutes each way, up Fort Irwin Road. The exact address and a directions link come with your booking confirmation.
Can I get a long style done in one trip?
Yes, and that is how it should be planned. Longer installs run several hours, so they are booked early in the day rather than squeezed in. Each style shows its estimated time on its own page before you book.
Can I buy the hair there instead of in Barstow?
Yes. Pre-stretched braiding hair and passion twist hair are in the online shop and can be added to your booking, so it is waiting for you rather than something else to find before you set off.
What happens to my deposit if I cannot make it?
The deposit holds the slot. Give as much notice as you can and the appointment can be moved; the cancellation terms are in the booking policy rather than decided case by case.
