I bought my two daughters here for braids. They were fast and when I had a problem they corrected it with no hesitation. I gave them an inspo pic and they executed it with ease. I drove from Menifee to knock both of them out at the same time. I'll be doing this again....more

I had some boho braids done. They were really cute! The only thing that bothered me was I paid $350 on top of a $30 deposit, and they didn’t give me the 4th of July special that I booked. I’m really timid so I didn’t say anything and just paid for it. They were really fast and I loved them so I just let it go. They definitely lasted long so I kept them in for 7 weeks. I took them out on my own & couldn’t get my hair detangled. I panicked and called them to help me detangle my hair. I appreciate that they took me right away. They were mostly gentle- except one of the girls was a little rough with my hair but I’m too quiet and shy to say anything. They made me nervous because there was a lot of yelling between some of the braiders there so I didn’t say anything. My head is really sore today and I can’t do anything about it. Overall, it was fine and I appreciate them helping me. I just think it was way too expensive for them to just detangle and wash. I paid $130 for them to wash and detangle. The braids were cute and I appreciate them detangling my hair, but I don’t think I’ll go back....more

I relocated to the area expecting to have a difficult time finding a reliable place to do my hair. I have long and thick hair and work in a professional environment so it’s important that my appearance with my twists are presentable at all times.

I have a hectic schedule so I need a place that can consistently fit me in, sometimes last minute. I also need a quality job that lasts to reduce the amount of trips.

Awa ALWAYS answers regardless of the time. The hairdressers are quick and detailed. When one stylist finishes a client’s hair, they help the next client, which dramatically cuts down the time you sit in a chair.

My style previous took stylist in other states 4 -5 hours. Here it only takes them 2 1/2 when 2 are working on me at the same time.

I drive an hour to visit the salon. The service and quality are worth the trip.

If you’re looking for a reliable shop to go to I’d highly recommend Awa’s on Balboa Av.

Thank you for your service!!

I’ve been coming here for about 7 years, and I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my hair. Awa and her team are amazing! Their customer service is always welcoming, professional, and consistent.They took out my old boho braids, washed and blow-dried my hair, and installed beautiful 26-inch boho braids, all in about 3 hours. I was so impressed with how efficient they were without sacrificing quality. My braids came out neat, lightweight, and absolutely beautiful.If you’re looking for one of the best braiding salons in San Diego, I highly recommend Awa and her team. Thank you so much for always taking such great care of me. I love my hair! I love you Awa 🙏🏿...more

I went to the San Diego facility and it was beautiful and clean and plenty of parking.

M
y appointment was 9:00am and saw me right away. I booked my appointment via instagram.

Please bring a picture of what you want. There is a language barrier but was able to work it out.

During my booking, I had to put $30 deposit. Make sure you can pull up the receipt. To pay the balance , I paid cash due to the language barrier and did not want to use my card for any mishaps. If you choose to use your card, to pay the remaining balance, there is an extra fee.

A young lady came around with a cart of treats and water which was a nice touch 😀

I received the boho braids hair included $300 and they are beautiful. The braiding process took about 6 hours.

Hair is not included for all braiding styles, please call to make sure the hair is included with the style you are getting.

The pictures show when I first got them done. It has been about two weeks and they have thinned out due to shedding and I love them even more.

My husband loves them as much as I do so that is a win win

Will definitely goimg back. I know what to expect and the process will be much smoother.

I had an amazing experience with Awa’s Braiding Service! From start to finish, her team was professional, welcoming, and incredibly talented. She paid close attention to detail and made sure I was comfortable the entire time. My braids came out neat, beautiful, and exactly how I wanted them—if not better!

I’ve received so many compliments already, and I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend Awa’s Braiding Service to anyone looking for high-quality braids and excellent customer service!

Going to Awa's was such a good experience. They are very fast, aren't crazy expensive, and do a very good job! I got some small knotless braids and when I've gotten them at other places, they take around 8 hours, here they were able to do it in half the time and turned out even better than I expected. Just make sure you either bring cash or have zelle because they do have a fee if you use card....more

They do an awesome job get started on time and sometimes have more than one braider working on your hair, but all the braids have even parts , nice and they are definitely ouchless braids. You could put them in a ponytail Same day. Then take their time with each customer and it does not feel like a rushed experience. I would highly recommend them for your braiding needs.

Y’all know on social media I show my

I’ve had friends help me, I’ve even paid professionals, and it’s taken 6+ hours every time. But when I walked into Awa’s Braids, everything changed! They were friendly, fast, and ready to help me right then and there. Yesterday I was in and out from 11:15 to 1:48 — y’all, that’s record time! 🕐🙌🏾

If you’re looking for a clean, welcoming place that respects your time and your scalp 😂, I definitely recommend Awa’s Braids. I’ll 100% be going back!

Amazing Experience!
I had such a wonderful time getting my daughters hair braided! The service was not only professional but also incredibly sweet and welcoming. I felt comfortable and cared for the entire time. Their braids came out beautifully—neat, stylish, and exactly what I wanted. You can tell there's real passion and skill behind the work. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend to anyone looking for high-quality braiding with a personal touch.

I was in San Diego for a short period of time but wanted to get my hair done while being there. I came across their tiktok page and saw that they had a Juneteenth special so I decided to book with them. I was there for about 3 1/2 hours and they immediately got started on me. I just wanted small knotless braids and I received it however, I expected the braids to come out much neater. The overall braids look great but they’re some braids that looked rushed through. The lady who did the back of my braids braided my hair so tight my head was sore for 2 days and it’s not supposed to feel that way. Service was overall great...more

I'm so happy I found a great shop in San Diego to service my braiding needs. Also wanted to add the time was good as well, I'm gonna add a picture to this review once I take one. It was my first experience with braids in a shop, I typically prefer a home braider because there aren't other customers that come in while you are being serviced with their weird energy and creating chaotic energy and messing with the flow. However, they are all great braiders and I will be back as soon as I take these braids out. I will not be going anywhere else, I'll be available lifetime customer....more

The owner Ms. Awa takes pride in her work and makes sure her braiders are performing at a top notch level. She also creates social media content which says a lot about how much pride she takes in her services. This is my third visit at this shop and I will definitely return. Also my braids stayed up for 8 weeks. I was able to wash and maintain them in between. Another plus is parking is plenteous, so you won't have to worry about not getting a spot.

Attached are photos of the outcome from their braiding services, as well as the reference pic (pic #4) on what I told them I wanted. You can tell that they really accommodate your taste and style, and go above and beyond to make sure you get what you paid for.

Extremely professional salon with fast service. They had me in and out in 4 hours, for back length knotless box braids. This is a service that normally takes all day (7+ hours) and they finished in half the time.
I have natural hair and arrived washed, but not stretched. There was a place I went to before her and that braider told me that she couldnt do my hair because it was "too natural". But AWA told me to come right over to her shop and her braiders not only showed they can do it but did it in the fastest time!

They also are professional in the way they are so non-judgemental. I was struggling with depression for some time and didn't take care of my hair like I should have, and had a few knots. They were super patient and even made effort to detangle rather than ripping through.

The best part about the service was how many braiders work on your hair. They were fast because 3 braiders worked on my hair at once, which not only made things fly by, but also makes you feel super pretty and pampered 🎀

They definitely have my business moving forward.
