- Rated 5 out of 5 stars
I’ve had braids across NC and no one is as gentle on my scalp as Alexy. My knotless set looked new for weeks and my edges were still thriving.

My daughter actually falls asleep in the chair now. Styles last through school, sports, and weekends without turning into a fuzzy mess.

Booked boho braids before a trip and got compliments in the airport, at the resort, and at brunch when I came back. The grow-out was smooth too.

I started my loc journey with Alexy and she treated it like a partnership. She gave me a routine, realistic expectations, and a look I’m proud of.
