Our Story

The hands, the heart, and the chair behind Sweetie's.

A neighborhood braiding studio built one appointment at a time — where every part is planned, every client is remembered, and every style is made to last.

How It Started

A love for braiding that turned into a chair of her own.

Sweetie started braiding for family and friends long before it became a business — practicing parts on cousins' kitchen chairs, learning what made tension comfortable and what made a style hold. That care is still the foundation of every appointment today.

Now working out of Salon 620 in northwest Austin, Sweetie keeps the same philosophy she started with: one client, full attention, no rush. Every section is mapped before the first braid goes in, so the finished style looks as good on day one as it does three weeks later.

Sweetie Founder & Braider

What We Stand For

Small studio, strong standards.

These are the things that don't change from one appointment to the next — no matter the style, the size, or how long you've been coming in.

Genuine Care

Your comfort matters as much as the finished look — we check in as we go.

Precision Parting

Every section is planned before braiding begins, so parts stay straight edge to edge.

Respect for Time

Appointments start on time and move efficiently, without ever feeling rushed.

Honest Pricing

You'll know your quote before you sit down — no changes sprung on you at the end.

The Journey

From first braid to full-time chair.

A quick look at how Sweetie's grew into the studio it is today.

The Beginning

Braiding for family & friends

Long before the chair had a name, Sweetie was braiding for anyone who'd sit still — learning tension, patterns, and patience one head at a time.

Growing a Client List

Word of mouth took over

Referrals from happy clients turned into a steady book — proof that gentle hands and neat parts speak for themselves.

Setting Up Shop
