The work was OK, that's why I gave it a Three star. However, the gel they used left my scalp, extremely flaky and unmanageable. They should really find new gel to use! Also lost a braid after one week.

I almost didn't go to Mays today reading the reviews eventhough I've been there over 10 times. Today was a great experience at Mary's. The ladies were all nice and welcoming, which they always are. Fatou did my box braids today. She was courtesy and did not braid tight! I had my hair washed, blow dried and braided in 5 hours! Plus, we stopped to eat! See you soon, Mary. Go and get your own experience you won't be disappointed!!
