Your New Essential for Braiding with Speed and Precision

Meet your new braiding bestie. The Alli Styles Assistant 2.0 also known as Alli "The Hair Assistant" is a lightweight, foldable, and easy-to-use tool designed to hold bulk hair, pre-sectioned synthetic braiding hair, or human hair extensions in place—so you can focus on creating flawless, protective styles faster and with less waste. Whether you're working in a professional salon or at home, this patented invention transforms your setup into a smooth, efficient system.

A Legacy of Innovation Rooted in Family & Culture

Inspired by a legacy of innovation and passed-down braid mastery, this tool was born from a Black family business built in the heart of Chicago. What started as a handmade salon solution by a mother-father duo has now evolved into a patented, production-ready styling assistant for today’s modern braider.

Alligator Grip for Clean, Controlled Styling

Alli’s signature dual-clamp “alligator teeth” design lets you insert bulk hair into the open jaws of the tool, clamp it shut, and then pull strands out one at a time without disturbing the rest of the hair. No more loose hair getting stuck to your pants, falling on the floor, or being pre-sectioned hours in advance. No more asking clients to hold hair bundles. No more braid racks.

Protect Your Investment. Elevate Your Workflow.

Perfect for micro braids, knotless braids, feed-ins, Senegalese twists, cornrows, and more, the Alli Styles Assistant keeps your sections clean and consistent, allowing you to stay in rhythm from start to finish.

Durable, compact, and easy to wipe down between uses, it folds flat for travel and saves space at your station. Once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever braided without it.
