-
what is your policy with children?there must be an adult present for any person under the age of 16. 👧🏻
-
what are hair shimmers?shimmers are the latest hair trend! ✨ they are 100% silk strands that come in a variety of colors (fun & natural), and are individually knotted onto a single strand of hair ♡ for shimmer appointments we require at least 6 inches of hair to give you the best result 😍
-
how long do shimmers last?shimmers last anywhere between a few weeks and a few months depending on your hair. ✨ everyones hair responds differently to shimmers, two sisters could get them by the same braidbabe and one could have her shimmers for 6 months and the others shimmers could last two months, with everyones hair being different we cannot guarantee how long shimmers will last ♡ shimmers may not last as long in fine hair. if you have very fine hair, we can tie the shimmer to two strands of hair for a longer lasting hold. 👍🏻 vigorously brushing hair before a shimmer appt will help brush any loose hairs out && prevent us from tying them to potentially already loose hairs ♡
-
how do shimmers look in curly hair?if you're a curly haired babe, strands will blend with your natural curls after a wash 🚿
-
can i use heat tools on shimmers? can i get my hair done?since the shimmers are silk, you can treat the shimmers exactly as you would your natural hair. ✨ you can use heat tools, bleach and dye the hair, we promise ♡
-
should i be gentle with my shimmers?avoid aggressively brushing or scrubbing your roots when shampooing. 🚿 other than that, treat your hair as usual ♡ dry hands running through wet hair or wet hands running through dry hair can actually pull at the shimmer causing it to fall out prematurely, so we recommend a ponytail or braid while swimming ♡ its totally normal to lose a few shimmers the first few days ♡
-
can my guests arrive staggered throughout the party?all guests must be present at the start of the party ♡ this allows us to get a head count and discuss how many babes we can do based on the braids or shimmers everyone is receiving since our parties are time based ♡ we cannot guarantee that guests that arrive late will receive services 🙅🏻♀️
-
what braids can my party guests choose from?babes can pick any braids off of our party menu 😍 ⮕ these are limited styles based on 10-25 minute braid options ♡ please check out either the "the braids" tab on our website - or - @braidbabes_menu on instagram to see our braid party options ♡ (bonus points for picking out your braids before party time! 🥳) ps. remember our "number of babes" is estimated based on 15 minute braid options ♡
-
we're having a pool party!! can you braid/shimmer wet hair?! ♡looooove that for you! ♡ unfortunately we can not do our signature styles on wet hair, && shimmers are at a 99.9% higher risk of falling out by tying them to already wet hair, so we will not perform these services ♡ additionally, if you have braidbabes at your party && get alllll the beautiful, fluffy, boho braids && then jump in a pool... we are not responsible for how the braid looks afterwards ♡
-
what if i do not use one of my monthly appointments?if you purchase a paid plan with a recurring payment, the services that have not been used, do not transfer to the next month. when your next payment goes through your plan will reset to the number of appointments in the plan. (pro tip: schedule appointments ahead, you can always reschedule to change the date && not lose out on your credit) ✅
