One of the best braiding shops on the Eastside!

Nina’s hair braiding was a good experience they are fast and professional!! Highly recommend!

Came to get braids on a Sunday - service was quick, professional and priced well for the quality.

I got my hair braided for the first time today, had a great experience! Everyone was nice and inviting. She was fast and educational! And my hair looks amazing!! I’ll definitely be coming back!

I have been going here for 15 years I love this place and still travel 4 hours since I relocated 6 years ago.

I love this shop. The workers are very friendly and cheerful all the time. Whenever I go I get in and out. And they do an awesome job on my hair!!

I have been coming to Sahko' s for a few years now and they are very professional and proficient when doing my hair. Whenever I call I am accommodated on whe I request an appointment.  I recommend Sahko's African Hair braiding

I love this shop and the workers! Very fast, professional and affordable! They do all styles good! Nina is my girl! If you call, she'll make sure you get your hair braided that same day!

I won't go anywhere else as long as Nina is here MAGNIFICENT

The service is excellent. I've been a client for years and I have no complaints. Everyone is very professional and pleasant, and the price is very reasonable. Their work is very neat.  There's always a good vibe with Nina and the ladies, and they are always able to accommodate me.

Love them here, Always do my braids and very neat…

I did a walk in at like 6pm and they sat me right in the chair and got started! I was very shocked and happy at the same time. I had three ladies on my head and it only took them three hours! They was very nice….I will be definitely going back….thanks ladies so much.

AMAZING! I feel so blessed to now have the plug to extravagant hair braiding at an extreamly fair price. Highly recommend.

First time. Loved it. The ladies are friendly

I’ve been coming here since my daughter told me about the shop. My hair had been damaged last year from medical reason's. Now my hair is to my shoulders. I love coming here! The women here are all very nice.

I drive from OH to get my hair done here every month!. She gets me together EVERYTIME!!! ☺️

Nadine was a great hair braider, she took her time and gave me a beautiful boxed braid style . I think it looks Great!!!

The absolute best hair braiders. If you want amazing customer service and to keep your edges definitely go here and nowhere else. I will always be a repeat customer!

Nina do my box braid.it wass very fast and i doo like it.be back and very professionnel

Been coming here for years, always timely, and friendly, reasonably priced... very neat and pretty braids

I went to Nina shop and I was in and out in a good timely fashion, everyone was nice I love my hair I got a shoulder length box braid with wavy ends. I had a great experience definitely going back. Thanks again ladies ❤️

Update: I only get my braids here. I've been going for over 8 years.  The braiders do a neat job. Sandra usually braids my hair, and it doesn't hurt. If you need your hair done, this is the best place to go.  They do all kinds of syles individuals, twists, feed-in braids, tribal braids, crotchet, and more. They do all hair types and lengths. The prices are very reasonable and they are very fast. If edge control makes your hair white (like me). They have the one that doesn't, which is a plus. They wash and blow dry for a fee. This is my trusted braider. The environment is clean and newly upgraded. I highly recommend.

Love my hair everything. Been here 4 times and will continue.  My twist extensions with human hair is the Bomb🥰❤️

This shop was amazing. She took down my old braids, shampoo my hair, and rebraided my hair all with 4 hours. I will truly be back!!!

Love the ladies at this hair salon!! Always on point!!! Very reasonable and always a beautiful hair style 💗💗
Worth the wait!!!

I’ve been having my hair done for almost over 8 years and I’m pleased with them they won’t disappoint you give them a chance

I’ve been coming to Nina for years. My hair always come out great!!!!

very  professional,  and make u feel  comfortable,  and very  reasonable,  and very  nice. Now I didn't  see roaches  as others  said. Now the 1st time  I got my braids done.  Excellent.  The second time was OK  but the texture was different,  and plus they were  training  this young lady who did okay. The only problem I had was braids  falling out and and it didn't  last long  so I took them  down.  But otherwise they are good.  Going  back tomorrow  😌here I am today  2023 Nov 30. And yet they  are  still amazing  always  available even when  busy. I really  appreciate their  business.  Thank you so much  for another year  of great service

I have been going to them for the past 9 years and I refuse to go anywhere else always professional, fast, and pricing is always reasonable on the choice of style I get never had any complaints on any choice of style I received

I love the services and the atmosphere everyone is professional and friendly. I get all  my braids and sew-in’s  done there for years I won’t go anywhere else.  Nina my stylist is also very  helpful with my natural hair too helping me keep it healthy! Prices are very reasonable and now  My friends and family go there too!

Very professional and polite! And my hair is always perfect and what I aked for.

The ladies do a very good job. Show a picture and you're good

Very neat braids

I have been there before so ,I decided to go back they did a wonderful job on my hair  I got the Box braids with the end curled I was a wait but  I honestly did have time to wait around today was not leaving? Thank you Ladies

I highly recommend Sakho African Braiding I’ve been going to them for over a year  for all of my braiding needs and they always do an amazing job. They are professional, welcoming, and talented.

Sada braided my hair in knotless box braids and she did a wonderful job. My daughter also had her hair braided it turned out beautiful. Thank you sada and everyone else who helped with my daughter.

I like the fact that the lady they called mama took her time out to braid my hair, even though it was really short in the top from weaves and thinning.She was the only one that was willing to braid my hair in the top. She did a great job considering what she was working with. I will return for her to do my hair.

It doesn't matter who does my hair I always like it. Very fast service!

I just love the work the do n the price if right. Been going for over a year now

Very good job ,and the braiders are friendly,Mary is for me the best

They made my hair look so nice. My favorite part was I only hard a 3hour wait....I can't sit longer than 5 hours without getting sick...I was in and out. They made me feel comfortable.

I have been going to Sakho since 2006. I have yet to be disappointed, the environment is welcoming and they treat me like family. I have followed them from location to location. Any style I request they can recreate without a problem. There pricing is always fair and service is always prompt. I love Sakho and can't see myself taking my business else where! On my way to them today as a matter of fact!
