I got the Box Braids (Medium) done yesterday and they came out looking so neat and lightweight. The service at Beauty by Michelle is always wonderful!

The Knotless Box Braids (Small) are worth every single rand because they last so long without pulling my scalp. Really great value for money in Johannesburg.
