Touba African Hair Braiding 9917 Halls Ferry Road, St. Louis, MO 63136

"I’ve been going to them for years. My braids are all ways perfect and the environment is very welcoming. Thanks MaeMe for always getting my hair together you are truly appreciated!"

"I have been to this place of business a few times in the past. The first couple times they did a nice job, but their scheduling and timeliness is always very inconsistent. I scheduled an appointment last March and came in and they told me to sit down and wait because their sister had not arrived yet to braid my hair. After 30 minutes, she had never arrived, and I asked what was going on and they said “I’m sorry she’s not coming.” I decided to give them another try yesterday. I wanted to get two French braids. When I arrived there was one person working in the shop and she was asleep on their sofa. She said that she could do my hair immediately and rushed through my hair which looked every bit of a very sloppy “rush job.” The parting wasn’t crooked and not precise and she straightened my hair with blow dryer, but then slapped an enormous amount of gel on it and sprayed Pump it Up spritz on my hair and put me under dryer ....Voila! looked a mess!! She did a complete rush job and took my money. While getting my hair braided, I asked what happened to the owner and other sisters and she informed me that they had all moved back to New York. That is why the quality of service has gone down. I won’t be returning."

"Been going here for about 7 years now, off and on. They've always done a great job. I actually did a walk-in for some micros about six weeks ago and the ladies got started on my head right away. I'm not tender headed, so the small pulls here and there because 2 people are in my head doesn't bother me. Still getting compliments today on my hair."

"This was a last minute appointment. I was very appreciative of that but concerned at the same time that it was Friday and no one else was there but me. After waiting until the lady prayed, breastfeed her baby, separated the hair she started on my hair about 40 minutes after I arrived. Oh I can't forget while separating the hair she was into one of her African movies so I took her even longer to finish separating because she was watching TV. In the end my hair came out a mess. I'm natural so of course I knew it wouldn't look great but after she finished powering on all the gel my hair look like it had been done for almost two weeks and I had touched it up myself with gel. I will not recommend them and neither will I go back."

"I recently got my hair braided there and I am satisfied with the outcome. It was a last-minute decision because I really needed/wanted my hair braided so I called in and Touba was really nice and told me I could come the same day. When I got there it was a brief wait because she was working on someone else. To cut through the case my hair is beautiful and she was very conversational which I've never received getting my hair braided. The price is reasonable, and I will be back."
