Braiding in Nottingham: what to expect
Nottingham’s Afro-Caribbean community is well established around Hyson Green, Radford and Forest Fields, with hair shops along Radford Road and braiders working across St Ann’s, The Meadows and the wider city.
For a city this size the braiding scene is healthy, with people doing knotless, box braids, cornrows and crochet from salons, from home and on a mobile basis across Nottingham and into the East Midlands. Hyson Green and Radford are the natural first places to look, and the listings here will also bring up home-based and travelling braiders nearer to you.
You’ll find African and Afro hair braiding here, from braiding salons to home-based and mobile braiders.

How to choose a braider in Nottingham
Match the braider to the style. Recent photos of the exact size and finish you want tell you more than a general gallery, so look for your style specifically.
Check whether they’re based in a salon around Hyson Green or Radford, work from home, or travel to you, and confirm the price and whether hair is included.
Book ahead for weekend appointments with the busier names. If your edges are delicate or you’ve found braids painful before, ask for knotless and a comfortable tension, and speak up early if anything pulls.
