Atlanta's Top Crochet Braids Specialist

Crochet braids are a protective hairstyle technique where hair is looped or tied to cornrows. It is very similar to tree braids except that the hair is braided first, then the crochet hair is added.

Knotless crochet braids is a technique designed to create an invisible part for a more natural look. No crochet knots are seen unless the hair is flipped over. Lastly, all of the client’s hair is braided.

PhirstLadey’s Crochet Frontal is a special technique designed by PhirstLadey to resemble clients’ natural edges for the purpose of pulling the hair back or into a ponytail. It is very similar to the theory of a lace frontal. All of the client’s hair is braided.

There is no specific price for crochet braids. Prices vary based on the hairstyle selected at booking. For specific prices please refer to the “Appointments” tab.

Crochet braids can last from 6 weeks to 3 months with proper care. Hairstyle longevity is highly dependent on the client as well as the hair/hairstyle in question.

It is very important to cover your hair with a bonnet or scarf at night before bed. For some styles you will be required to trim the hair as needed. It is also very important to moisturize your scalp with oils or hair grease while wearing crochet braids.

While I do not advise it, crochet braids can be washed at your own risk. However, due to the fact that the hair is synthetic, the hair may tangle and curls may be lost. If you wash your crochet hair, let it air dry. Heat causes synthetic hair to straighten.

Heat causes synthetic hair to become straight and shiny. Therefore, if the hair was curly it will be straightened and may require a re-curl to get it back to its original state. If you have straight hair, blow-drying on low heat will help the hair to become straight and silky. Be careful when using a flat iron and/or curling iron, direct contact with the synthetic hair may cause the hair to melt or burn.

All of the hair used for my styles are synthetic hair. Please be advised that the specific brand name may not be revealed due to PhirstLadey’s trade secret policy.

Yes, I add extensions to thinning, damaged, or short hair. There is no additional fee for this service.

No. It is very difficult to do crochet braids with human hair since the texture can be very silky. However, PhirstLadey will continue to search for the best quality hair for clients.

You are required to bring your own hair for styles such as the crochet box braids and twists. If you have purchased some form of curly hair and you would like to use it, please contact PhirstLadey before booking an appointment. Not any hair can be used for crochet braids.

Yes, I do remove crochet braids for clients. A small fee is charged. If you have an upcoming appointment you must contact PhirstLadey early to schedule a separate appointment to remove your crochet braids.

No, unfortunately I don't. The reason is because I use very particular braid patterns for my crochet techniques. Therefore, adding more hair or trimming/shaping the hair will not automatically correct the hairstyle.

I recommend taking the hair down and having it completely redone.

To remove your crochet braids, first use a scissors to cut the crochet hair about an inch from cornrows. Then, pull the knots out. For best results, use a crochet needle or pointed tooth comb to help lift knots. When you have successfully removed all of the hair, start unbraiding cornrows.

If you are still having trouble schedule a Take Down.

All wigs are created using the crochet method. The hair is not on a track and it does not have any lace. Wigs are not custom made or guaranteed to fit as shown in the picture. Everyone has a different frame.

Always braid your hair down and wear a stocking cap before putting the wig on. When you are not wearing the wig, keep it pinned to a Styrofoam head and stored in a safe place.

All wigs will last from 6 weeks to 6 months with proper care. Depending on the wig purchased, some will last longer than others.

The wig cap used to make the wigs are stretchable, and breathable allowing for multiple head sizes.

Due to PhirstLadey’s trade secret policy, the hair used to make the wigs cannot be disclosed. However, it is important to know that the hair is synthetic.
