BraidHouse allows braiders to enjoy modern conveniences of traditional salon suites at a fraction of the cost. And...build community. Unlike other salon suites, BraidHouse is a salon space designed specifically for braiders. We know hair braiding is unlike other hair service. Our premium braiding chairs and stations are not only affordable, but perfectly equipped with amenities and comfort for a flawless hair braiding appointment for you and your clients. Clients will enjoy a complimentary snack & beverage service, fast wifi, iPad entertainment, etc. Braiders receive a dedicated receptionist, complimentary towel service, salon capes & aprons, membership events, training & education, 24/7 access, and an in-salon braid supply where members receive 20% off.
BraidHouse membership is strictly for hairstylists who primarily perform hair braiding services. Unfortunately, our salon is not equipped for any chemical services and the majority of other hair styling services. However, we are able to accommodate services such as ponytails and wig installs. Please contact us at join@braidhouse.co to see if you’re eligible.
At BraidHouse, we consider a variety of factors before accepting new members. BraidHouse looks for members who are not only talented, but also professional, and exhibit exceptional client service.

All BraidHouse members are required to sign a Code of Conduct once accepted.

BraidHouse Services
Members have 24/7 access to the salon and can book clients at any time. However, the receptionist and in-salon braid supply are only available Mon-Sat from 11am - 6pm and Sun from 12pm - 4pm.
BraidHouse does not handle client bookings. Members will book clients on their existing booking platforms and then book their dedicated premium braiding chair on the BraidHouse platform to service their client at the corresponding time. Our receptionist handles member and client check-ins, and manages all of our members’ amenities (towel service, in-store braid supply, snack & beverage service, etc.).
Yes! All members have access to a dedicated locker to store all their salon supplies.
Members have access to all premium braid chairs and stations. They are available on a first come, first serve basis; therefore, we do not allow any permanent customizations at stations. Braiders are permitted to bring approved tools and supplies to service their clients. However, they must be removed once service is complete to prepare the chair for the next appointment.
