Monica M. Okolo, Owner and Braider

Braid Bar Houston… Where It’s All About Your Hair, Comfort & Southern Hospitality!

Hello! My name is Monica M. Okolo, MPA, and I am the owner and head stylist of Braid Bar Houston. I opened my business doors in 2016, and I have been styling and braiding natural hair for 19+ years. I offer a unique and relaxed braiding experience for clients who seek traditional and pain-free installs of natural and protective styles. My installation techniques are customized and based on each client’s preferences, their specific hair care needs, and desired outcome or look they wish to achieve.

Come on in, have a seat, and make yourself comfortable! I look forward to working with you soon.

Where do I send my 50% (PERCENT) deposit? What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Your deposit can be paid online at the time of booking your appointment. You may also pay in full at the time of booking.

You may reschedule/move your upcoming appointments with no issue AND use your same deposit on file IF you reschedule at least 24 HOURS before your appointment time. Cancellations WITHIN 24 hours of your scheduled appointment time are subject to a forfeiture of your 50% deposit on file.

I can't find your address online. Where are you located?

Braid Bar Houston, LLC., is located on the Southwest side of Houston, Texas, in the Westchase District (at Harwin & Beltway 8). After booking and sending your deposit, you will be sent additional confirmation details via email.

I'm tender-headed, want to "Keep My Edges" and I don't want a lot of heavy braids... can you provide this service?

I offer an individual and customizable experience when it comes to styling each of my clients. Uploading a picture of the look you want into my consultation forms during the booking process will help align this process and give you the best results.

Do you wash hair? Do you blow hair out? Do you provide the hair?

I don't provide hair washing services. I can detangle & blow out your hair with the add-on service. Whether I provide the hair or not depends on the specific service you are interested in booking. Please read the description of the service for details. If the hair is not included in pricing and you would like for me to purchase/order your hair for you, please let me know in your consultation form.
