was there a point to that post??
And it depends on how long your hair is, and what kind of hair braids you want done.
My hair being past my butt, cost me over a 100$ when I did it 5 years ago. Of course that was done out in Texas... but prices aren't that much different.
If you want it done really good, and got time on your hands, head over the black section of town and have it done, they do it the best generally. But I've never been able to have any one insane enough to do my hair.
