Servicing DC, Maryland and Virginia
Book a licensed mobile braider that slays your hair, not your edges.
Founded by two Nigerian sisters, Unruly offers thoroughly vetted mobile stylists so you can get your hair braided at home without any worry or travel.
Imagine waking up one day and…
- A skilled stylist arrives at your doorstep ready to work their magic.
- You say to yourself, the convenience is real–no scrambling to go to the hair braiding shop only to wait even though you have an appointment;
- No being left sitting while she does another head. Your stylist is focused on you and only you.
- And you didn’t even have to search for this magician who handled your 4c hair with care! Someone else did all the searching and vetting for you.
- You’re getting knotless box braids, which takes time, but you’re at home, and there’s no place like home. Your home is comfortable; your home is private; your home is yours. Plus, you can get a little work done while she braids.
- When she’s done, you’re feeling yourself and not any pain. You’ll sleep well tonight and not have to do your hair in the morning.
This dream can be your reality when you book with Unruly! Simply pick a style, a date and time and we’ll come to you.

But wait, African braiders cost less
We love our fellow braiders and we'll be the first to admit we can’t beat their prices. So, if you’re looking for low-cost braiding, they’re your best bet. But consider what those short-term savings might cost you in the long run if:
- you’re hair is braided so tightly you begin losing your edges
- you’re booked with a braider that hasn’t learned standard hygiene practices required through licensing
- your braider doesn’t listen and you end up not liking how your hair turns out after sitting for hours
