Astan African Hair Braiding 801 West Memorial Boulevard, Lakeland, FL 33815

"I had an amazing experience. The staff was incredibly skilled and friendly, making me feel welcomed right away. The cleanliness of the salon was impressive, and the range of braiding styles they offered was fantastic. I was thrilled with the quality of the braiding; they paid attention to detail and ensured I was comfortable throughout. I'll definitely be returning for their excellent service and recommend it to anyone looking for top-notch braiding expertise!"

"I came in last Saturday (walk-in) for box braids. The woman there said she couldn't do it til later in the day (absolutely fine as I didn't have an appointment). My hair was done faster than I've ever had it braided previously. The braids are beautiful, clean, neat. The women in the shop were funny, welcoming, and a joy to be around. Will only be going to this shop from now on. Best shop in Lakeland!"

"I went to get my hair braided last week and the braids were done by the mom. The braids were cute/neat however the braids were too tight. I also noticed with African braiding shops they tend to be rough with natural hair (especially 4c) which I really don't appreciate. It's super disappointing. I do my best to prep (detangling etc..) my hair before braiding, but the mishandling is unnecessary. I understand 4c hair can be a lot but if you want me to straighten my hair before I come in just say that."

"Great service.Friendly, family, professional place. Great prices, smiling faces and the best braiding I've ever had done! Thanks to all the beautiful, friendly ladies for making my day every time I come in! My first visit was a walk in, last minute on a Sunday. I had to leave town for a family emergency and it meant the world to me how welcoming everyone was because it was a very emotional time for me. Thanks again and see you in a few weeks!"
