Target Posted August 11, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 11, 2004 When we cruised on Disney to St. Maarten and St. Thomas, we were warned by different people (Disney-affiliated and others) that the folks that braid on the islands are not monitored by the health department, etc. There are quite a few cases of lice that start at the braiding booths. I would probably go with Princess Cays-I would assume they are regulated by Princess. Sanitation is worth the extra. Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanetMarie Posted August 11, 2004 #3 Share Posted August 11, 2004 I'm sorry, but if I am going to have my hair braided, I'm going to have it done onboard by the salon. I have seen women on the islands chasing women down the street with dirty combs, wanting to braid their hair. I have seen them braid one pesons hair and immediately use the same comb to do the next.

zurmoly Posted August 11, 2004 #5 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Bring your own comb if you MUST have it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Charlie Posted August 11, 2004 #6 Share Posted August 11, 2004 In case you haven't heard enough about sanitation, I'm with them. Have it done at home or in the salon on the ship. I do believe that the answer to your original question is about a buck a braid, beads extra. If you are going to do it, shop around. The braiders are everywhere. Just like any other purchase, don't buy the first that you see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
