Fantasy - Hair Braiding by the pool?

[asamklove]

Do they still offer hair braiding poolside on the Fantasy? It was fun & very reasonably priced in 2013...hoping it's still there!

I am excited for you! One of my favorite at-sea day memories is watching my daughter get her hair braided for the first time. She just turned four and wanted it done so badly. She's tiny for her age, and the hair braider, thinking she was closer to 2 than 4, didn't want to do her hair. She tried to tell me my daughter would not be able to sit in the chair long enough for a head of braids and that she would cry from the hair pulling. I gave my daughter a cup of ice cream to eat while the lady worked, and she never moved or cried.

We were on the Fantasy last week and I recall seeing the hair braiding. If you are doing a Western Caribbean I would suggest waiting until Jamaica. We found some lovely Jamaican women right in port doing the hair braiding and my daughter had a few braids done there. I think we paid $12 for four braids but the prices were reasonable for half and full head.

I had 2 braids with some beads done in my beard on the Fantasy. I was totally shocked at the cost, I never bothered to check it before I got it done. It was $3.00, yes $3.00. I decided to be a big spender and gave a 200% tip and it still came to less than $10. There is no doubt that it was one of the cheapest things I have ever purchased on a Disney ship. It was a lot of fun too, there was a small line and I made some friends in line that lasted the whole cruise. I was a little sad when I got home and had to remove the braids.
