Helen is Amazing!! I moved to San Diego 14 years ago and was in search of new braider and came across Helen & have been a 4ever client ever since . I’m always satisfied with my hair. Helen provides a comfortable environment…if u wanna talk she’ll talk …if u wanna be in silence she’ll allow u to sit in silence . She caters to what your needs are for your hair experience and the work is top tier.

It's been 30 YEARS, since I've had micro braids. This was one of the BEST 6 hours spent thus far, of my 2025. Thank you universe & Sweet Helen, aka NewYork :) for your guidance 🙏🏽 I look forward to returning to your healing space. ✨️ Cascading LOVE & Light Lite.

I have been coming to Helen for about 5 years now and I wouldn’t trust anyone else! Her prices are great and she is super fast. She is able to do maybe hair styles. I get box braids and I am satisfied every time I come here. She is also so friendly and accommodating.

Absolutely amazing! Helen was very helpful and understanding prior to getting my hair done. I got bohemian/goddess braids and they look so so good! She’s works efficiently and is very nice! Her prices are super reasonable and I enjoyed my experience completely! Will definitely be going back.
