Why get braids at home
Braiding is one of the longest beauty appointments, often taking several hours. Doing it at home means no travel, no waiting and the comfort of your own space. You can stay in your own surroundings, with your own drink and your own music, while we work.
How booking works
Message us on WhatsApp, LINE or email with the style you want, your approximate hair length and any reference photos. We reply with availability and a quote for your exact style and length, because braid pricing depends on size, length and the amount of hair used. Appointments are by booking only.
Where we go
We visit homes across Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa and Saitama. In Tokyo that includes all 23 wards and the western Tokyo cities. See Tokyo, Chiba, Kanagawa and Saitama for details.
Fitting braiding into a Tokyo home
Many Tokyo homes are compact, so tell us about the room and the space you have when you book. We need a comfortable seat, good light and enough room to work, and we confirm the details with you. If your building has an auto-lock entrance or limited parking, tell us so we can arrive without delay.
Preparing for your appointment
Arrive with your hair washed, detangled and fully dry unless we tell you otherwise. Send your reference photos ahead of time, and tell us about allergies, scalp sensitivity or anything else we should know. Eat beforehand and keep a drink nearby, because the appointment is long.
How long it takes
Braiding is a long appointment, so allow a full day slot for most styles. The time depends on the style, braid size and length, and we give you an estimate in your quote. Choose a day when you have no other plans.
Cost and travel
Price depends on the style, size, length and hair used, and a travel fee may apply depending on distance. We confirm the full quote before you commit, so there are no surprises.
Which styles you can book
We offer ten braid and loc styles, from knotless braids to box braids and cornrows. See all braid styles.
Home or studio?
If you would rather come to us, see the Kodaira studio. If you are unsure, message us and we will talk it through.
A typical day
We arrive at the agreed time, confirm the style with you and set up in your chosen space. We section your hair and begin braiding, checking in as we go. Breaks are fine for a drink or a stretch. When the braids are done, we finish the style, share aftercare tips and tidy up before we leave.
Making the day comfortable
Choose a room with good light, keep a drink nearby and have something to watch or listen to. Wear comfortable clothing and tell us if you need a break. A relaxed setting makes a long appointment much easier.
Questions people ask
Can someone else be at home? Yes. Can I book for a friend or relative at the same address? Message us the details. Can I change my mind about the style? Tell us before we start, and we will confirm what is possible.
What to do after your appointment
Follow the aftercare tips we share, protect your braids at night and keep the scalp clean. Plan your take-down for when new growth begins to tangle, and message us when you want to rebook. We are happy to answer questions after the visit.
