Braid extensions "star" at Braid Lounge

Long before women started wearing lace front wigs, there were wearing braid extensions.  Getting braid extensions done is a  time consuming process - especially if you opt for micro braids. But  the end justifies the nine or ten hours to get it done.
I really got nostalgic about braid extensions when I came across the amazing work done by The Braid Lounge out of Virginia USA. I was so impressed by the neat work of the braidists that I decided to feature them here.

Just four years old, The Braid Lounge also does weaves, locs and loc maintainence.  The salon also supplies hair to customers for an additional cost. A Braid Lounge representative told me that box braids --  as seen recently on singer Beyonce --  and  the Senegalese twists are extremely popular among the customers at the Braid Lounge.
Given the popularity of full lace and lace front wigs its a wonder that braids are still in such demand.
"Women are still drawn to braids because they are low maintenance and last long, some styles last up to as much as three months," the representative told me.
With braid extensions there are many protective braid styles to choose from including micros, kinky twists and of course the Senegalese twists and Tree Braids. Women who work out a lot or like to swim,  find the braid extensions convenient.
Here are my favourite braid styles from the Braid Lounge - Tree Braids, Micros, Box Braids and Sengalese Twists. If you're in their area do check them out. They are located at 1220 Baker Road Ste. 102, Virginia Beach. Contact them at 1 (757) 965 4232.
