For clients with naturally curly or wavy hair, Lovina’s African Hair Braiding offers hair relaxing to smoothen and straighten hair. Relaxers involve a chemical process to keep the hair straight for an extended period of time. This service is ideal for those who desire straight hair and don’t want to take the time to straighten it every day.
We offer several types of hair braiding designs suited for all ages, hair textures, and lengths!
Box braiding is one of our specialties and an African tradition. Box Braid hair styling is known as a protective style because of its square-shaped hair divisions. Box braids are added in three sections of synthetic additions. To learn more about Knotless Box Braiding click here.
This is a type of short weave-in hairstyle that can be styled to create a formal, defined, or soft textured look.
Micro braids are tiny braids done on all or sections of your hair that can be created on virtually any length. They can be curled, twisted, or straight.
We can also create twists and braids to make straight hair look more curly or wavy. This style can be customized for each customer’s hair length and preferences.
Cornrows are braids created from the hairline back toward the crown and down the length of the hair, with straight, defined parts between each braid.
We can also create dreadlocks, which involves teasing the hair into large twists that can be braided or unbraided. Products are used to keep each section of hair together while creating a textured look. We can add dreadlock extensions to any hair length and style.
Lovina’s African Hair Braiding also creates men’s design braids which can be customized for each individual client. Curved brands, zig-zag designs, straight cornrows, and coiled braids are just a few of the many options.
This style can also be modified to create a client’s desired look and creates flat rows of braids with a twist on the side, top, or back of the hair.
Our stylists can also twist colored yarn into any braided hairstyle to create bold, fun style while holding the braids in place longer.
Lacing is a type of braiding that weaves hair together to create a desired pattern or effect. This can be done with any hair texture, style, and length.
This elegant hairstyle is created with thick sections that are twisted towards the base of the scalp and those large sections are held together with a twisted section wrapped around the other twists.
Invisible braids are created when the roots of the hair are braided in small sections just long enough to create separate pieces and the end of the braid fades into straight smooth ends. Tree braids are created when the entire crown of the hair is braided in rows to hold the rest of the hair in a fanned out or tree shape through to the ends.
