Looking for the best braiding salon in Denver? Deseo Salon & BlowDry is a Denver destination for braided hairstyles, serving clients across the Denver metro and the Front Range since 2015. Braids are a great way to take your hair a mile higher without the need for dying or cutting. They’re perfect for glam goddesses who love changing up their look without damaging their natural hair. Textured, curly, wavy, and thick locks are easy to maintain in sleek, vibrant braids that maximize style without requiring hours of taming your gorgeous hair every morning.

Deseo offers a unique variety of braiding techniques and braids of every style to choose from. From current trends to classic looks, achieving Instagram-worthy style is an appointment away at your neighborhood boutique salon.

The Best Braids for Every Hairstyle

The art of hair styling begins with sculpting unique looks for each client. Our certified luxury stylists have professional training and always know the latest trends. When it comes to sleek, flawless braided styles, we have the most loved celebrity styles as well as customizable looks to suit your own personal glamour goals.

Throw it back to the 90s with classic box braids. These braids never go out of fashion. You can accent them with beads, metallic threads, and a pop of colorful highlights. Box braids are ideal for protecting your natural hair while adding length. Because they’re so easily tailored to each client’s hair goals, the length, fullness, color, and style can be changed whenever a new inspiration calls. Long, elegant box braided hair is one of our favorite looks to create. But adorable braided bobs and lobs are quickly catching up!

If you’re looking for a more free-spirited, loose, and wispy aesthetic, then boho braids are a fast-growing trend. This gypsy-inspired look is perfect for thick hair that’s as untameable as your wild spirit. These braids are long-lasting. They also create a vibe of effortless chic that won’t damage delicate hair with excessive pulling, tying, and tugging. A boho braid is great for a looser braid or a whole flower crown of tighter braids to inspire the forest goddess in every woman. There are so many more amazing looks to choose from at our salon, from a single side braid to goddess, crochet, bridal updo, and twisted braids!

Are you looking for a style for a special occasion? Braided fascinators and updos are a high fashion “Yes!” for every Instagrammable moment!

Why Choose Deseo for Braids in Denver?

Braids are a styling technique with endless variation. Our braid services cover everything from casual boho braids to intricate event styles, all built for your hair type and the look you want.

Multiple braid styles, not a single signature. Fishtail, French, Dutch, crown, waterfall, and combination styles are all part of our braid menu. Your stylist will recommend what fits your hair length, texture, and the look you are going for.

Prep that makes braids actually hold. A braid only looks as good as the prep beneath it. We texturize and prep your hair with the right products before braiding so the style holds shape and catches the light instead of going flat.

Honest about what we do not offer. Deseo does not do box braids, cornrows, or locs. Those techniques require specialized natural hair training and should be done by stylists who specialize in them. We will be upfront if braid styles you are asking about are outside our scope.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of braids does Deseo Salon offer in Denver?

Deseo Salon & BlowDry offers a variety of braiding styles including box braids, boho braids, goddess braids, crochet braids, twisted braids, side braids, and braided updos for special occasions. Because our stylists have different areas of expertise, available braid styles may vary depending on who you are booked with. If you have a specific style in mind, mention it when booking and we will match you with the right person.

How long does a braid appointment take at Deseo Salon?

A simple, single braid appointment at Deseo Salon typically takes 30 to 45 minutes. More complex braiding styles or intricate woven designs will take longer. If your vision involves detailed work, we recommend booking a 15-minute styling consultation first so your stylist can plan the appointment accurately and give you a realistic time estimate before the service.

Can I get braids if I am wearing hair extensions?

Yes. Extensions are actually a great complement to braids because they add the length and volume that many braided styles need to really come together. Depending on the type of extensions you wear, your Deseo stylist can incorporate them into the finished braid so the result looks clean and natural. Mention your extension type when booking and we can confirm compatibility with your desired style beforehand.

Is sleeping with braids good or bad for my hair?

Sleeping with braids in is genuinely good for your hair. Braids reduce friction between the hair and your pillow, which cuts down on breakage and moisture loss overnight. They also help textured and curly hair hold its pattern. A silk or satin pillowcase takes the protection a step further by reducing friction even more. Many Deseo clients find that braiding their hair before bed also makes for a faster, low-effort morning routine.

How do I keep braids looking fresh between appointments?

Use a lightweight dry shampoo at the roots to refresh your style without disturbing the braid. Avoid washing too frequently, which can cause frizz and loosen the style faster. A small amount of hair oil or serum along the lengths keeps braids looking smooth and adds shine. Deseo Salon carries Oribe and Kevin Murphy products that work well for braided styles, and your stylist can make a specific product recommendation at the end of your appointment.
