African Hair Braiding Near Minneapolis: Styles at Braids by Favor

For Minneapolis clients searching for African hair braiding, choosing the right studio is about more than location — it's about the quality of the braiding and the care taken with your hair. Braids by Favor is a dedicated African braiding studio located in Crystal, MN, and we welcome clients from Minneapolis and throughout the surrounding Twin Cities area.

Styles We Create

Our menu focuses on braided and twisted protective styles: knotless braids, box braids, boho braids, cornrows, feed-in braids, stitch braids, micro braids and twists such as Senegalese twists. Each can be tailored in length and size, so you can go from a subtle, natural look to something bold and detailed. See everything on our services page.

If you're weighing options, our guide to knotless vs. box braids is a helpful starting point, and our protective hairstyles guide explains why these styles are so popular.
