The short answer
Knotless braids in London usually cost more than standard box braids because each braid starts with your own hair and is fed in gradually, which takes longer. Price varies a lot by braider, so the best guide is the live price on each professional's page.
What changes the price
- Size: smaller braids take many more hours than large ones, so they cost more.
- Length: waist and bum length need more hair and more time than shoulder length.
- Hair included: some braiders include braiding hair, others ask you to bring it.
- Extras: boho curls, beads, colour and takedown of old braids are often charged separately.
- Home visits: mobile braiders may add a travel fee.
How to compare fairly
On Sphere every braider shows their full price and length of appointment before you book, so you can compare like for like without messaging back and forth. Check whether hair is included and what the deposit is.
