What Large Micro braids are
Large Micro braids are a form of Micro Box Braids created with smaller sections than traditional box braids; the size, length, and fullness you choose determine the finished texture and movement. This service starts at $250+ and uses added hair, so the final look is shaped by braid thickness, extension placement, and the amount of hair incorporated.
Expect a meticulous sectioning process where many small braids are formed across the scalp; smaller and fuller micro braids take longer to install and create a finer, denser look. Because the finished style depends on section size and the amount of extension hair, those choices are the main trade-offs between cost, time, and the style’s longevity.
Timing and pricing factors
The listed duration for this service is 415 minutes. That represents the baseline time for an average set; installations for smaller, fuller, or extra-long braids commonly exceed that duration. Plan for a lengthy appointment and, where possible, schedule around work or family commitments—our Fayetteville location serves many commuters and military families who book evening or weekend times.
Price begins at $250 and increases based on size, length, and fullness: smaller, fuller micro braids cost more; extra-long braids cost more. Very thick or very long natural hair may require an additional fee because it uses more time and materials. A $50 deposit is required to secure your appointment and the remaining balance must be paid in cash.
Local logistics and care
Alice African braids and locs is located in West Fayetteville / Cliffdale near Murchison Road and Skibo Road retail corridors, minutes from Fort Liberty and commuter routes. That makes it practical for clients who combine appointments with shopping or before/after shift visits to Cross Creek Mall or the Airborne & Special Operations Museum. Plan travel time and parking when booking your 415-minute appointment.
Bring four packs of human hair for Micro Box Braids since hair is not included. After installation, protect your braids from heavy moisture and friction by using a satin scarf or bonnet at night and gentle scalp care between washes. These daily habits help preserve the style without promising specific results or timelines.
