How the style is made
Kids Half Cornrows Half Braids combines two common braided approaches: tightly platted cornrows in one section and individual three-strand braids in the other. The stylist sections the child’s hair to create a balanced look that stays secure for active kids. This mix helps deliver a finished style that can be personalized for size, part placement, and edge appearance.
Because the service pairs two techniques, the appointment focuses on neat parting and consistent tension so the finished style sits well on a child’s head. The listed duration for this service is 30 MINUTES, so arrival on time and having hair supplies ready helps the stylist complete the look within your scheduled slot without rushed work.
Booking and supplies details
A $50 deposit is required to secure and keep your appointment; the appointment is not confirmed until the deposit is received. The deposit is non-refundable. The published price for this service starts at $140 and covers the styling only; hair is not included, so please bring three packs of Expression hair (52 in) if you want added length or uniform color.
Alice African braids and locs is located in West Fayetteville near the Murchison Road and Skibo Road retail corridors, minutes from Fort Liberty and major commute routes. That location makes it practical for military families and busy commuters to schedule appointments before or after shifts; consider scheduling around school or work to reduce wait and ensure timely service.
Care and local considerations
Fayetteville’s humid subtropical climate means styles can feel different in hot, humid weather. For kids, keep the scalp clean and lightly protected at night with a satin bonnet or pillowcase; gentle handling and minimal daily manipulation help preserve the neatness of both cornrows and individual braids without introducing heavy products that can weigh hair down.
If you need adjustments, re-touches, or to refresh edges, consult your stylist to schedule a follow-up. The salon lists a 30 MINUTES appointment time for this service, so plan subsequent visits accordingly. Bringing the requested hair packs and arriving on time helps the stylist deliver consistent results and makes follow-up scheduling smoother.
