About the salon
A Los Angeles salon devoted to every texture, every story.
Africana Star Salon brings together two creative practices — color & styling, and braiding & protective styles — under one roof on Wilshire Boulevard. We exist to make premium, texture-first hair care feel personal, calm, and uncompromisingly skilled.
One studio, two specialties.
Our color floor is led by stylists trained in custom color, balayage, double process and full creative work. Our braiding studio specializes in knotless braids, faux locs, cornrows, twists and protective extensions — for kids and adults alike.
Whether you're refreshing a balayage between seasons or installing a long-term protective style, you'll be met with the same standard of care.
What we stand for.
A team of specialists in color, cuts, braiding and extensions — trained for every texture.
Every appointment begins with a consultation so we understand your goals, lifestyle and hair history.
A welcoming space where natural, relaxed, and transitioning hair are equally celebrated.
