My first name means “Lucky” and my salon “Beauty by Lucky” is a high-end hair and beauty salon that specializes in African hair braiding for both men and women. But, I do so much more! Women, If you are looking for the look that will knock a man off his feet, or just because you want to look incredible for yourself, I do lovely hair and eyelash extensions too. I use top-quality faux hair as well as natural hair products. We also carry the best quality hair maintenance products to keep your “do” beautiful and healthy.

Thanks Lucky for another fantastic creation. Im happy with how my braids turned out. The service was fast (approx 2hrs) for medium individual mid back the first time and small/medium, individual the 2nd time. You need to bring your own hair but the prices are very fair. I definitely recommend.

I had the best experience getting my hair braided by Lucky! Firstly, she was so helpful with directions on getting into her suite/room and was very polite. Her space was incredibly clean and tidy and smelt amazing. Lucky was very personable, friendly, and easy to converse with; I love talking to my hairdressers! Lastly, and probably most importantly, she was exceptionally fast and did my medium knotless braids in under 3.5 hours, which usually takes other hairdressers more than 5 hrs! And you wouldn’t think it took her so fast because my hair looks absolutely beautiful and she was able to give me exactly what I wanted. All of this at a very affordable cost (which is partly what drew me to her service)! Hands down the best set of braids I have had! 110% recommend and will be going back! :)

Frequently asked questions

How long do cornrows with extensions typically last?

Cornrows with extensions can last between 4 to 6 weeks with proper care. It's important to moisturize your scalp and protect your braids while sleeping to prolong their lifespan.

Can I wash my hair with cornrows?

Yes, you can wash your hair with cornrows, but it's important to be gentle. Focus on washing the scalp and avoid excessive manipulation of the braids to prevent frizz and unraveling.

How long do crochet braids take to install?

Crochet braids typically take about 2 to 3 hours to install, depending on the style and the amount of hair used. It's a quick and efficient protective style.

Are crochet braids suitable for all hair types?

Yes, crochet braids are versatile and can work for all hair types. They provide a protective style that adds length, volume, and versatility to your natural hair.

What are bohemian braids, and how do they differ from regular box braids?

Bohemian braids are a more relaxed and textured version of traditional box braids, often incorporating loose, curly strands to give a free-flowing, boho-chic vibe. They offer a less structured look compared to classic box braids.

What are the benefits of knotless braids over traditional box braids?

Knotless braids are gentler on the scalp because they don't start with a knot, which reduces tension and breakage. They also have a more natural, seamless look, making them a popular choice for protective styling.
