Shop before your appointment
Many braiders and stylists ask you to bring your own hair. Order it here and have it delivered to Birmingham.
In the last 12 months our Birmingham customers ordered braiding and crochet hair, lip makeup and shampoo most often.
Wig types explained
Not sure what to ask your stylist for? Here is what the names mean.
- Lace front wig. Lace runs along the front hairline only, so the hair can be parted and styled away from the face.
- Closure wig. A smaller lace patch, often 4x4 or 5x5 inches, at the parting. Usually quicker to fit and easier for beginners.
- Full lace wig. Lace all over, so it can be parted anywhere and worn up.
- Glueless wig. Held with an adjustable band and combs instead of adhesive.
- Human hair or synthetic. Human hair can be heat styled and coloured and usually lasts longer. Synthetic costs less and holds its style, but check the label before using heat.

Before you go

Salon or braider

- Ask whether to arrive with hair washed, detangled and blow-dried.
- Check the price, the deposit and how long it will take.
- Say straight away if anything feels too tight.
Barber
- Take a photo of the cut you want.
- Keep hair and scalp moisturised between cuts.
- If you get razor bumps, ask about a bump treatment.
