Our Story

Rooted in Minneapolis,
Dedicated to Your Hair

Rita Men and Women Braiding has been a trusted destination for braided and protective styles on the south side of Minneapolis. We opened our doors with a simple belief: everyone deserves a salon experience that honors their hair texture, respects their time, and delivers results you'll be proud to wear.

Whether you're looking for a fresh set of box braids, intricate cornrows, sleek twists, or gentle natural hair care, our skilled stylists approach every client with patience and precision. We listen first, then craft a style that fits your lifestyle — from everyday elegance to statement-making looks.

What We Offer

Crafted Styles for Every Client

From classic braids to modern protective styles, we offer a full range of services for men and women who want their hair to look and feel its best.

Box Braids

Timeless, versatile, and protective. Our box braids are tailored to your desired length and thickness, with neat parting and a clean finish that lasts.

Cornrows & Feed-In Braids

From straight-backs to intricate patterns, our cornrow work is precise and comfortable. Feed-in techniques minimize tension for a smoother, longer-lasting style.

Twists & Knotless Braids

Soft, lightweight, and naturally beautiful. Our twists and knotless braids give a seamless look with less scalp tension — perfect for everyday wear.

Men's Braiding

Clean cornrows, braided fades, and tailored styles for men. We understand the precision and sharp lines that make a great men's braided look.

Natural Hair Care

Braids are protective, but your natural hair deserves care too. We offer wash, condition, and moisturize treatments to keep your hair healthy between styles.

Special Occasion Styles

Weddings, proms, photoshoots — whatever the event, we'll create a style that looks stunning on camera and feels comfortable all day long.
