Update today 3/4/24- My cornrows look older than 2 weeks and I do tie it up at night. I blew my hair out with a blow dryer straightener before braiding them. Another stylist said it could be that my natural hair was not tucked as it was being braided. I may go back for natural hair cornrows again for under wearing under wigs but for extensions not to sure.
02/19/24- I was going to do more price matching for half cornrows/half knotless braids. I went into Miriam's as I saw it was empty and asked her the price. She said $160 and I need to buy the hair. Compared to other prices on the Ave it was one of the best. I went to get 3 packs of hair which was almost $20. When I arrived back to the shop, another client was there.

If she thought I wanted it today should of asked or gave suggestions of...

I have some shorter portions of hair, and she managed to catch them into the braids perfectly without making them too tight, which I really appreciate and we left those baby hairs out. Plus, her prices are affordable—I'm not paying $300 for knotless braids! The whole process was smooth, and I left feeling so confident with my new look. I Highly recommend Miriam for anyone looking for professional, thoughtful, and reasonably...
