It took me a while to put this review together because I wanted to be sure it was perfect. I wanted to be sure I said some things and paint some pictures or some scenarios for you to see and feel the experience that I have every time I go to her and/or I refer someone to to have Anta braid their hair.

She is fast. She is efficient. She is clean she is understanding, she is caring.

I’ve been going to Anta now for I wanna say, four years and that I remember one summer where I hadn’t been wearing braids for a very long time and I decided to get back in braids… I wasn’t sure if I could trust anyone braiding my hair; the last time I had my hair braided was like decades ago and I did not have a good experience.

When I did get my hair braided, it was on a whim. I walked into the salon to be greeted with “oh the person that was supposed to braid your hair is no longer available”. That wasn’t a shocker to me…but I began to panic. The woman assured me she’d get someone to braid my hair.

In comes Anta to save the day/braid my hair. What really shocked me was the person that was the back up end up being the most reliable person and here we are four years later!

I send majority of my family; if not all to her, even my friends. If you’re in the Lombard area, definitely give her a call…you won’t regret it. she’ll definitely take care of you. She will take her time and she won’t have you feeling like she just threw something together.

Hopefully you see it took me some time to put this together. What are you waiting for? Go book with Anta and see for yourself. Feel free to say I sent you! Cheers 🥂...more
