District Braids by Anna was founded in 2020 by Anna, a master braider who learned the craft in her grandmother's living room before turning it into a profession. Her stated mission was to deliver beautiful, long-lasting protective styles without compromising the health of her clients' hair. Over more than five years in business, Anna has built the salon into what she describes as Washington, DC's most trusted braiding studio, serving more than 500 clients across DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. She has trained in advanced low-tension braiding and edge preservation, a technique the salon says protects clients' edges and promotes healthy hair growth underneath each style. The salon's approach centers on three principles: low-tension technique to protect hair health, gentle and patient care from consultation through take-down, and consistent use of premium braiding hair and professional products. District Braids by Anna has been featured by DC-area beauty creators and stylists and maintains a 4.9-star rating across more than 125 reviews from clients in the DC region.
