Knotless method and look
The knotless technique builds each braid by gradually adding hair while keeping the base soft and tension-free. For a bob boho look, braids are sized medium and finished with loose, textured ends so the overall silhouette sits shorter at shoulder or jaw length, producing the airy, lived-in shape customers asked for in their photos.
Because the style is boho, bring the curly hair with you; natural curl or curly-textured extensions create the wispy, undone finish. Josie adjusts braid placement and edge styling to suit face shape and hairline, and when clients have fine or thinning hair she can add hair at the base to create fuller-looking parts without excessive tension.
Comfort and salon experience
Clients consistently report a gentle, relaxed process: the knotless approach reduces scalp pulling and common tension points. Expect Josie to check comfort throughout the appointment, to keep parts clean and consistent, and to offer light scalp oiling at the end when requested for a soothing finish and added shine.
The salon is located on Main Street in Downtown West Orange, convenient for commuters near I-280 and transit. Flexible early-morning and late-evening appointments are available to fit work schedules and family routines. Visitors planning a stop at Thomas Edison National Historical Park or Turtle Back Zoo often book around day trips.
Timing, pricing, seasonality
Appointments are listed at 270 minutes as a baseline, but actual duration depends on hair density and the amount of added hair. Denser natural hair or extensive volume will lengthen the session. If you’re comparing options, plan for a multi-hour appointment and schedule accordingly to avoid rush or extra time pressure.
Pricing for this service starts at Starting at $200; final cost reflects chosen materials and complexity. The bob boho knotless is busiest in May, Jun, and Jul because shorter bob-lengths stay cooler in hot weather—book early in those months to secure preferred times.
