Entertainers
Book intimate bachelorette party entertainment in the San Francisco Bay Area, a small-group bridal shower hair station, or a tween or sweet-sixteen spa party. Book intimate ladies night entertainment, an upscale bridal-shower hair station, a tween or sweet-sixteen spa-party experience, or a bat-mitzvah salon-style activity with a boutique hair braiding package - two or more professional hair braiders working a small, intimate station with elaborate salon-quality braids, coils, and updos. This package is sized for gatherings of ten to twenty-five guests where the host wants real salon-style braiding work (not the fast festival-style accent braids) for each guest. Pricing is forty-five dollars per guest with a ten-guest minimum (so the minimum booking is four hundred fifty dollars total, ten guests served), plus thirty-five dollars per additional guest above the floor. Booking and payment run through the EIM marketplace.
Bridal-party and bachelorette-host buyers looking for bachelorette party entertainment, an intimate party entertainer, or salon-style party entertainment service for a small guest list pick this boutique-tier braiding package.
What is included in this boutique hair braiding package
Two or more professional hair braiders arrive fifteen to thirty minutes early to set up the station with mirrors, combs, accessory trays, color extensions, ribbons, flower clips, and hair glitter. Each guest receives one elaborate salon-style braid design - double-strand braids, triple-strand braids, classic crown braids, partial wrap-arounds, French braids, fishtails, coils, or full updos depending on what the guest requests and what works for their hair length and texture. Each guest also leaves with a hair comb as a take-home favor - a small, deliberate touch for hosts who want the activity to double as a party gift.
What "salon-quality" means in this context vs. festival hair braiding
The festival-style braiding offered as a separate one-artist package is built for high-volume throughput - six to ten guests per hour per braider, each getting a quick accent braid or single fairy braid. This boutique package is the opposite: two braiders working slowly and deliberately on a smaller guest list, with each guest's hair styled for fifteen to thirty minutes including consultation, planning, and accessory application. The result is the kind of elaborate look a guest would book at a salon for a wedding or special event, not the festival-day accent strand.
Accessory choices included at no extra cost
Each guest's design can include accessory choices at no extra cost - color extensions woven into the braid, ribbon braided alongside (great for bridal showers and bachelorettes themed to the bride's colors), flower clips at the base of the braid or along the crown, and fine hair glitter brushed through the braid for shimmer. The hair comb take-home favor is included in the per-guest rate.
favorite buyer fits for boutique hair braiding
The four most-booked contexts are bridal showers (the bride and her bridal party each get a salon-style braided look for the shower or rehearsal dinner), bachelorette parties (intimate ten-to-twenty-guest evening events where each guest gets a braided look for going out), bat mitzvahs and sweet sixteens (the guest of honor and her closest friends each get an elaborate braided style as a party activity), and tween spa parties (kids aged eight through fourteen love the salon experience).
Why a ten-guest minimum and a twenty-five-guest maximum
Below ten guests, two braiders are not cost-effective for either the host or the team - small parties of fewer than ten should book the Hair Bling Glitter and Tinsel Bar instead. Above twenty-five guests, two braiders cannot finish elaborate work on every guest in a reasonable window - for larger guest counts the host should book the Festival Hair Braiding service line (one braider, faster designs, priced by the hour) which is bookable separately.
What the host provides on the day
For two braiders working side by side, the host provides one six-foot adult-height table (or two four-foot tables) plus four chairs total - one for each braider and one for each guest being styled. Each braider needs six to ten feet of clear space. The braiders need access to a standard outlet for any heat tools used in the styling. Outdoor events need a fully shaded canopy. Indoor venues need ample lighting.
Cleanliness and supplies
All combs, accessory clips, and extensions are sanitized between guests with cosmetic-grade sanitizer. Each guest receives a clean styling cape and a fresh comb take-home favor. The braiders will not work on any guest who appears to be sick or showing visible symptoms of conjunctivitis or scalp conditions.
