Our Story

Rooted in culture.
Grown on the island.

Born from a love of African hair culture and a simple idea: everyone in Mauritius, and everyone visiting, should be able to get authentic, carefully done braids.

Who We Are

More than a salon. A community.

Mamacita Lounge was founded on one belief: every person deserves to feel beautiful, confident and seen. We brought authentic African braiding traditions to Mauritius, creating a space where culture, artistry and care meet.

We’re based in Beau Bassin / Rose Hill and work with clients from across the island and with visitors who want a real African braiding experience during their stay. With our mobile service, we come to homes, hotels and villas, subject to availability.
