Private braid studio in Southeast Raleigh specializing in knotless braids, boho braids, locs, twists, and kids’ styles that protect your hair while still looking next-level in every photo.
Serving Raleigh · Durham · Cary · Triangle NC
From NC State students and downtown creatives to Durham commuters, Alexy keeps the Triangle braided, tucked, and glowing — without sacrificing your edges or your time.
From front-porch braids to a polished private studio, Alexy has grown with Raleigh — and your styles have grown with her.
Before the skyline changed, before the breweries and rooftop bars, there was a braider on the block making sure everyone stayed neat. That braider was Alexy — and today her studio blends that same warmth with a modern, tech-forward salon feel.
Specializing in African American hair, she’s known for clean parts, gentle hands, and styles that still look good three weeks in. Whether you’re working in RTP, running a business, or grinding through finals, your hair should match your pace — not fight it.
Styles that photograph well, grow out gracefully, and stay comfortable through long Raleigh days and late nights.
Lightweight, low-tension knotless braids that move naturally, sit softly on your scalp, and stay fresh through commutes and flights out of RDU.
Braids and curls blended for a soft, romantic look — perfect for photoshoots, rooftop dinners, and special events.
Face-framing patterns and sleek, detailed parting that celebrate culture and turn heads on Fayetteville Street.
Clean, consistent retwists and starter loc plans tailored to your texture, lifestyle, and future loc goals.
Soft, rope-like twists with bounce and movement — easy to style up or down for class, office, or weekend brunch.
Gentle, age-appropriate styles for kids with tender scalps — built to survive school, sports, and play.
A peek at the kind of finishes, parting, and movement you can expect in Alexy’s chair.
Real words from clients driving in from downtown, Durham, Knightdale, and beyond.
“I’ve had braids across NC and no one is as gentle on my scalp as Alexy. My knotless set looked new for weeks and my edges were still thriving.”
“My daughter actually falls asleep in the chair now. Styles last through school, sports, and weekends without turning into a fuzzy mess.”
“Booked boho braids before a trip and got compliments in the airport, at the resort, and at brunch when I came back. The grow-out was smooth too.”
“I started my loc journey with Alexy and she treated it like a partnership. She gave me a routine, realistic expectations, and a look I’m proud of.”
